"JASON POTTER! CHRISTOPHER BLACK!" Anne Potter yelled as she dragged her brother and cousin into the common room by their ears.
"Anne! Oh let go!" both boys complained as the angry witch finally did.
"Alright you two listen up! I don't care what you think of Zan's family. But you will be nice to him. Or I swear both of you will find out why it took me so long to find my wand!" Anne threatened.
"Anne his family is from a long line of Slytherins. Of death eaters." Chris complained.
"And so is your family Chris. Should I stop talking to you for choices your family made." Anne asked her patience getting thin.
"Now I mean it. You better start treating him better guys or I'm gonna write to dad and granmum Zizi." Anne said, "am I clear?"
"Yes mum," both boys said jokingly.
"Good," Anne said deciding to over look the comment. "Now Emma and I are going down for lunch." Anne finished heading out the portrait, with Emma who had been in the back round.
"What up her arse?" Chris asked taking a seat.
"I donno. But you know she has the potter and Weasley temper in her." Jason said.
"And you don't." Chris asked.
"Of course not. I'm calm cool and collected." Jason said, earning him a pillow in the face.

"Daddy!" Evan yelled almost two weeks later, running into the house, Harry hugging his youngest son tight.
"Are you better. Aunt Hermy said you where sick and that's why I had to stay with her and Nick." Evan said.
"Well she was right. But Uncle Ron nursed me back to health. So no worries. Now run on up and put your stuff away." Harry said as Evan nodded and left his stuff upstairs.
"You sure you going to be okay?" Ron asked.
"Yes. First sign something is wrong I'll floo you and send Evan right over." Harry said saluting to Ron.
"Harry do you think Voldemort is back?" Ron asked, asking the question he had yearned to ask Harry since he was in the hospital.
"No Ron I don't think so. No I defeated him. He can't be back. You all saw his spirt be taken away." Harry said.
"But every one thought he was gone the first time Harry. Can't it be possible?" Ron asked.
"Bloody hell Ron. Trust me I'd know if he was back. The pain that opened my scar would of be ten folds what it was. No Ron I think it is some one trying to take his place. I think a new evil is a foot. I just don't know what. But it must be powerful for who ever it is tried to open up the connection I had with Voldemort." Harry said as Evan came racing down stairs.
"Dad can Nick sleep over tonight?" Evan asked.
"If it is okay with Uncle Ron." Harry replied.
"Uncle Ron?" Evan asked.
"Harry your still," Ron tried to protest.
"I'm fine. I wasn't ready for the attack Ron. I'm on guard now."Harry said.
"Please Uncle Ron." Evan begged.
"Oh fine. I'll send him over after dinner. Now Evan keep an eye on your father." Ron said as he apparented out.
"Alright little man how about you and your old pops go out for a bite of lunch?" Harry asked as Evan nodded enthusiastically.

"So love birds when are we going to have this wedding?" Lily demanded.
"June." Joey responded. "It will give us time to tell each others family."
"Good." Lily said, "But guys can I talk to you?"
"Sure." Clare said, sitting down with a cup of coffee that Lily had figured out she must of had a strong dislike for, she preferred tea.
"Guys I was thinking maybe I should move out. I mean with you two getting married this place should be yours and for what ever tykes you two have come along." Lily said in a rush.
"Dear lord no Lily!" Clare protested right away, just what Lily needed to hear.
"Listen Lil we may be getting married but that doesn't mean we are kicking you out. If anything you get to move into either her or my room. See there we still have an extra room for any tykes as you put it that come along." Joey said.
"Thanks guys." was all Lily was able to say.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Dad there is a letter from Jason!" Evan yelled, handing the letter to his father.
Dad,
I know next week is Christmas and I know this is short notice but would you mind if Zan came and stayed with us. His Uncle Theo was really angry at him for getting into Gryffindor and told him not to come home for the holidays. None of us want to leave him so would you mind if he came?
Your devoted son,
Jason
p.s- Anne also wants him to come and asks if after Christmas if Emma can come as well.
Harry laughed, not able to help himself. He had gotten word from Hali about how originally Jason and Chris did not get along with Zan and had started to prank him. Well Zan pranked them right back, it seemed to have formed a bond between them It reminded Harry of how his dad and Sirius became friends.
Harry scribbled down and okay very quickly before sending Hedwig off with it. Then calling to check in with Mr. Weasley to make sure nothing new was happening that he should be informed of. Since September nothing drastic had happened. Maybe who ever it was would give up. But Harry found that unlikely.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Come on boys!" Anne complained as they got off the train, Anne running and hugging her father.
"There's my girl. Oh look at how you've grown. I swear you've grown like a stalk.." Harry proclaimed.
"Dad," Anne said, blushing.
"Ah my devoted son," Harry said watching his own son blush.
"And this must be?" Harry said, indicating Zan.
"Zanorth Nott sir. But every one calls me Zan" the boy said.
"Drop the formalities son. Your spending your Christmas with the Potters they don't exist in our house." Harry said, shrinking all the trunks to fit neatly in his pocket.
"Come I borrowed a car from the ministry it will take us home." Harry said as he led the three of them through the grate, the Blacks where taking a portkey. They all pilled into the car and the where soon off.
"Where is Evan?" Anne asked.
"With Nick." replied Harry.
"Is granpa James and Sirius coming home for Christmas?" Jason asked, wanting to of course show of his cool grandfathers, the kings of pranking to Zan.
"Of course. Where ever Dumbledore has them he is allowing them to come home." Harry replied.
"Why didn't Hali and Alec come home with you lot?" Harry asked, ruffling his son's hair.
"They said they'd come on Christmas but wanted to stay at the school for good mesures." Anne said.
Harry nodded, "So are you all enjoying your first year of Hogwarts?" Harry asked.
Anne was about to respond first when all of a sudden the car seemed to loose control.
"JEFF! Harry yelled to the driver who gave no response.
Eventually the car stopped, hit its self hard against a tree.
"Every one okay?" Harry asked.
"Fine dad, Mr.Potter." the three children said.
"All right you three. Stay in the car." Harry said, not even opening the door but apperenting out. Once out side the car Harry looked around, his wand out, ready for an attack. But there was no one, nothing around, be it good or bad. Cautiously Harry pulled the driver's door open, Jeff fell to the floor. Harry checked his pulse, there was none, he was dead. And by the looks of it all it was by the Killing Curse.
"Alright you three out of the car." Harry said taking the kids out on the other side so they would not see Jeff.
"What happen dad?" Jason asked.
"Just a flat tire." Harry said, hating to lie to his children.
"Now I want to get us home so I am going to change into my animagus form." Harry said to his children, with a pop turning into his phoenix form, his large wings flapping strong.
"Bloody hell." Zan said."You never told me your father was a phoenix"
"It's no big deal." Anne said laying a hand on her father, Jason and Zan following her lead. Soon the trio where engulfed in flames and not moments later arrived in the Potter home where Harry turned back into himself and un shrunk every ones trunks.
"Alright why don't you all take these up stairs and get Zan settled in your room Jason." Harry said. "I need to make a quick call in my study so don't disturb me." Harry said hoping his smile did not look to fake.
The three kids nodded and together dragged their trunks up stairs while Harry disappeared into his little study and made a call to the ministry.
"Hello Ara can I speak to Mr. Weasley?" Harry asked to Ara Lupin, Remus Lupin's wife and the minister's secretary.
"Of course Harry." Ara said as suddenly Mr. Weasley's face appeared.
"Kids home?" Mr. Weasley asked, he absolutely missed the company of Anne and Jason.
"Yes they are here. But Mr. Weasley we may have a problem. While driving home the car lost control. On further inspection I found the driver dead and I would bet anything it was the killing curse but I found no evidence of any one being around." Harry said, his father-in-laws face growing grim.
"I'll put Tonks and Kingsley right on it." Mr. Weasley said, then giving a half smile.
"Tell the children I say hello will you."
"Of course Mr. Weasley." Harry replied, the fire dying down as there was a pop and Dobby appeared.
"Harry Potter sir it be time for dinner." Dobby said.
"Alright. I'm coming." replied Harry.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
Over the next couple of days Harry, his children and Zan spent their time decorating the house, something Harry always did with his children. He found Zan to be a very nice, polite boy, though he did see that he deffently had a pranking streak in him. And Harry had to say he was suprised when the prank wasa played out on Jason as payback for what Jason had done to Anne.
Flashback:
"Jason give it back!" Anne demanded holding out her hand, demanding back herself inking quill that had been made special from her from one of her father's own feathers.
"Not until you say please." Jason replied, turning around and heading to his own room.
"JASON SIRIUS POTTER!" Anne yelled going to charge at her brother but to find herself at then end of one of her Uncle's new products. A fake wand that would turn your hair any color, and lasted for at least a week.
"Jason just give me the quill!" Anne said.
Jason just nodded his head no and Anne finally coming to a desicion decided to make a grab for it. She soon was sporting a head of bright green hair. With out a word Anne ran to her room and locked the door. For the rest of the day, no matter what Harry promised he could not get his daughter to leave her room till the next day when she came down for breakfast, all the boys had to bite their tongues to keep them selves from laughing themselves silly.
"You will pay for this." Anne told Jason in a deadly calm voice that reminded Harry a lot of Ginny.
"Alright you lot go clean up. We are going to go get the tree today." Harry said.
Every one pushed themselves away from the table and soon Harry heard them thudering up the stairs. As he started to clean up he heard aloud sherik. Harry expecting the worest pulled out his wand and ran up the steps, taking three at a time, the yell had come from Jason's room.
Harry blasted the door open, wand ready for an attack but almost dropped it as he started laughing. For his son stood in the middle of his room, his skin a bright neon green like Anne's hair.
"Who did this?" Harry asked with intrest, thinking it was probablly Anne.
"I'm sorry Mr. Potter but I did." Zan said, trying to hid the smile that was playing on his lips.
Harry trying to do the same just left the room, muttering to himself about how grand it must be to be green.
End Flashback
Harry was sure that he knew that Zan would become and , may already be a loyal friend
to his children.
"Jason, Anne, Zan can I speak to you?" Harry yelled, the three children meeting Harry in the kitchen.
"Yeah dad?" Jason asked.
"Granmum Zizi just called and wants to know if you three want to spend the night over there with them and Chris?" Harry asked.
"Can we?" Jason asked hopefully.
"Yup." Harry said.
"Cool! When are we going?"
"Soon as you ready." Harry replied.
In minutes the three off them where ready and threw the floo.
"What about me?" Evan asked.
"Well Nick and Griff are going to stay over tonight." Harry said to his son, just as Ron and Hermione stepped threw the floo with their sons.
"Harry are you sure about this?" Hermione asked.
"Hermione I know how to take care of children. Now leave Nick and Griff with me. Ron and you go have a nice night and I'll see you two in the morning." Harry replied.
"Alright if you sure. You know how to get in touch with us if anything should happen." Hermione said.
"I know Hermione. Now go or Ron and you will be late." Harry said, as Ron where making motions behind his wife.
"Alright good bye Harry. Kids be good for your Uncle." Hermione said as she dragged Ron back through the floo.
"Alright," Harry said, holding two year old Griff. "Nick, Evan why don't you both go watch some cartoons." Harry said, as Griff started to cry, missing his parents, it was going to be along night.

"Lily we've decided to elope." Clare said, smiling madly.
"What!" Lily said, full of suprise! "But why?"
"Well," Joey said looking at Clare lovingly.
"I'm pregnant!" Clare said, Lily launched herself at her friend once again hugging her tightly but turning a deadly glare on Joey and smacking him hard.
"Hey! I'm still injured here!" Joey complained.
"Well then next time don't knock up my best friend!" countered Lily.
"Will you be our witness?" Joey asked.
"Of course." Lily replied, happy to do it.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Dad there is some one at the door!" Evan yelled to his father.
Harry stared at the door, a bad feeling settling it's self in his stomach.
"Boys come here." Harry said as Evan and Nick came in.
"I want you two to go watch over Griff. He's in my room." Harry said, as the knocking became louder.
"But dad!" Evan whinnied.
"No buts! Now go." Harry said, not approaching the door till he knew they where safely upstairs.
"Where is the boy!" an angry man said pushing his way into Harry's home with no invitation.
"Excuse me sir but I do not know what you are talking about and will ask you to leave." Harry replied staying calm.
"Cut the crap Potter!" the man said, Harry figuring out who it was.
"Nott!" Harry said angrily.
"Listen her Potter I have no fight with you asof now. But I've come for my charge." Theodore Nott said.
"He is not here." Harry replied cooly.
"I'll press charges Potter. Now where is my cousin." Nott asked.
"Press what ever you like Nott. Or have you forgotten my father-in-law is the minister of magic?" Harry asked, sounding cockier then he liked.
"Listen Potter I just want that good for nothing boy!" Nott replied.
"No you listen to me Nott. You will leave and you wont return. If you don't I will have no problem calling the minister of magic to arrest your arse for trespassing." Harry replied, just as Nott punch Harry right in the mouth, making him sway but not fall. Harry hit him right back, a powerful punch that sent Nott to the floor.
"Leave before I press charges!" Harry said.
"This is not over Potter!" Nott said, swishing his cloak and disappearing into the night.
Harry locked the door and then finally realized his lip was bleeding. "Bloody hell!" Harry said angrily.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Morning!" Hermione and Ron said as they walked into Harry's kitchen.
"Mummy!" Griff yelled excited as his mother picked him up.
"How you boys doing?" Ron asked, messing up his son's wild red hair and Evan's black hair.
"Need help Harry?" Ron asked as Harry turned around, Hermione gasped as she saw Harry's large purple lip.
"Bloody hell Harry what happen?" Ron asked.
"Ronald! Language!" Hermione yelled at her husband but then turning back to Harry for an answer, but Evan decided he'd answer for his dad instead.
"The willy monster got him." Evan said, his cousin nodding along.
"The what?" Hermione said, never hearing such a thing.
"Aunt Luna told me the willy monster likes to eat the skin of people's lips. But Daddy fought them off." Evan said, as Ron and Harry could not help but snicker.
"Harry I'm serious." Hermione said, worried.
"It's nothing. Zan's cousin came by last night and we got into a little brawl. No worries." Harry said, serving out eggs.
"But," Hermione insisted.
"Drop it Hermione." Harry said, sitting down himself and starting to eat, discussing new training tatics with Ron for the Cannons.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Come on Susan you have a great voice!" Draco insisted as the whole Weasley clan, Potter crew and their friends gathered at Harry's house for Christmas this year.
"Oh fine. But only if you play the notes for me." Susan said to her husband who nodded and sat himself at the Potter piano and started to play the notes to Silent Night.
"Silent night, holy night,
all is calm, we see, all is bright"
It was late, most of the children had already fell asleep but the adults where still up and celebrating the grand holiday.
"Round young virgin mother and child,
holy infant so tender and mild
we say sleep in heavenly peace,
sleep in heavenly peace."
Harry looked around him, at all his friends and family. His father had dragged his mother into the middle of the floor and where dancing together, it seemed Zizi, Ara and Hermione had the same idea as they tore their husbands out onto the living room floor and danced slowly to Susan's soothing voice.
"Silent night, holy night,
shepherds first saw the sight
Glorious streaming from heaven afar,
Heav'nly host sing Allelluia
Christ the savior is born,
Christ the savior is born."
Harry remembered the first Christmas he ever celebrated back in his first year at Hogwarts when he received the invisibility cloak. Maybe Harry thought it was time for his son to inherit as he did.
"Silent night, holy night,
all is calm, we see,
all in bright"
For some reason it was at this time of the year Harry missed Ginny the most. The first Christmas they had spent in this house had been such a joyful one. Them decorating the tree together with Jason and Anne. Singing Christmas Carols, and kissing under the misiltoe. And when Jason and Anne where tucked into bed on Christmas eve how they would sit by the fire, in each others arms. Harry hoped where ever Ginny was she was happy. That she was alive and enjoying life. If she could not be with her family all he wanted was for her to be happy. For he refused to believe she was dead. It just was not possible, it could not be.
"Round young virgin mother and child,
holy infant so tender and mild
we say
Sleep in heavenly peace,
sleep in heavenly peace."
Every one clapped. "Bravo! Bravo!"
"You are an excellent singer Susan," Hali said.
"Thanks but I'm really nothing special." Susan said as she kissed her husband.
Harry could not help but stare at them, wishing that was Ginny and him. Though Ginny played the piano and he usually got stuck singing, that was how it had been the first Christmas.
"Harry how about you?" Susan asked.
"No thank you," Harry said. "You continue singing Susan you have a lovely voice." Harry said.
"Please Harry. Come on we all know you can." Susan insisted.
"Come on mate." Neville yelled over, as did Ron.
"Alright, alright. If it is only to shut you lot up." Harry said, feeling un easy about this.
"What song," he asked.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
"Do you Joey Degrawa take Clare Worthington to be your lawfully wedded wife. For richer or poorer, in sickness and in heath as long as you both shall live?" the priest asked.
"I do," Joey said, as he placed an simple yet elegant gold ring onto Clare's hand.
"Do you Clare Worthington take Joey Degrawa to be your lawfully wedded husband. For richer or poorer, in sickness and inn in heath as long as you both shall live?" the priest then asked Clare, who was dressed in a simple white sun dress in a chapel on Christmas day.
"I do," Clare said as she slipped a plain gold band onto Joey's finger.
"Then I pronounce you husband and wife. Merry Christmas and now you may kiss the bride!" the priest said with enthusiasm.
Joey leaned over and kissed Clare passionately on the lips.
"Well Mr and Mrs. Degrawa how about we get you two to a hotel." Lily said, making the newly weds laugh.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen." Susan said, nodding to Draco, who started to play the song.
"Alright ready Harry?" Susan asked.
Harry nodded and they began.
"God rest ye merry, gentlemen,
Let nothing you dismay
Remember Christ our Savior
Was born on Christmas Day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy!"
Both Harry and Susan sang together, the room sat in silence listing to the lightness of Susan's voice the pain in Harry's.
"In Bethlehem, in Jewry
This blessed babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
For which his mother Mary did nothing take in scorn.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy!"
Harry closed his eyes as he sang, it was the very song that Ginny and he had sung together. With his eyes closed Harry could picture Ginny near him as he sang, playing the notes of the song.
"From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed angel came
And unto certain shepherds
Brought tidings of the same
How that in Bethlehem was born
The son of God by name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy!"
Flashback
"Come on Harry sing it with some feeling," Ginny complained as Harry wanted to just sit back down.
"Ginny," Harry complained with a small smile.
"Sing Harry. We both know you can." Ginny said, winking at him.
End flashback
"Now to the Lord sing praises
All you within this place
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace
This holy tide of Christmas
All others doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy!"
The song finished, Harry did not notice till he sang the last note that Susan had stopped singing on the second verse. Every one in the room started clapping, and if Harry had been looking he would of seen tears leaking out of many of the females eyes.
"I'm sorry," Harry croaked, "I'm going to bed. The rest of you stay and have fun. Dobby will make sure everything is locked up when you leave." Harry said leaving the room and heading right to his room, ignoring his family as they called him back.
Harry made it to his room and into his private bathroom where he lost his Christmas dinner. He then washed his face and brushed his teeth before walking back into his room where he saw Anne sitting on his bed.
"What are you doing up missy?" Harry said, trying to sound calm.
"You miss her don't you dad. I remember that song, you sang it when Jason and I where little." Anne said.
Harry sat down next to her on his bed and wrapped his arm around her.
"I miss your mother every single day Anne. I will always miss your mother but I don't want you dwelling on it alright." Harry said.
Anne leaned over and kissed her father.
"Now you go get to bed," Harry said.
Anne jumped up and made her way to the door but turned to her father and said, "You sing really well dad." and then left, closing the door behind her.
Harry laid down on the bed and with no other thought but of his wife he fell asleep.
