Crowd around Sniffy's notebook.

Sirius: She finally went mad. She wrote R/Hr.

Mirzam: Speaking about devil, Sniffy is coming. Hello Sniffy!

Sniffy: What are you doing here?

The crowd: We were wondering if something happened to you…

Sniffy:stares: Huh? Why?

Sirius: Well we found that you have a note in your notebook which says 'Write R/Hr in near future'

Sniffy: And?

Sirius: Well we know that you 'care' about Good Ship as about snow from last year.

Sniffy: True but where the point is?

Sirius: Why are you going to write R/Hr?

Sniffy:laughs: Sirius tell me one thing for what R stands for you.

Sirius: Ron.

Sniffy:glares at Sirius then laughs like a madman: Titanic was a Good Ship, I dare say that it was a Very Good Ship, but it doesn't change the fact that Titanic meet the iceberg.

Sirius: Your point?

Sniffy: Try again. :laughs and mutters: Me and the Good Ship. Sirius finally went mental.

Sirius: Well, it may be Rabastan.

Sniffy: Try again. :laughs:

Sirius: Rodolphus?

Sniffy: No.

Sirius: Rosier?

Sniffy: Nope.

Sirius: Remus!

Sniffy:from the floor: Try again Sirius, try again.

Sirius:mutters something under his nose: Regulus?

Sniffy: Exactly!

Sirius:stares: I don't understand. Why?

Sniffy: The point is that R in R/Hr can stands for many other Rs in HP. I solemnly swear that if you ever see me writing Ron/Hermione it will be the sign that I finally went mental, no offence Good Shippers, but hey what Good Shippers are doing in certainly Harry/Hermione, well Raven/Rowan fic?

Sirius: Another point. :grimace sceptically as if he would know what Sniffy is planning:

Sniffy: Well, since I'm dog at Good Shippers and if I don't write Harry/Hermione I have a problem with whom I should pair her I decided to pair her with Regulus since it is another R in HP books.

Regulus: But why?

Sirius: Because she finally cracked and decided to write… :Sniffy cuts him:

Sniffy: Yes. Sirry. Mentioned by one of R/Hr but still Sirry and one-shot I'm afraid.

Sirius: Good for you.

Sniffy:sticks her tongue: You are such a homophobe Sirius.

Sirius: I'm not! But he is my godson!

Sniffy: Try to change my mind about it Sirius. Anyway you have something to do.

Sirius:huffs: Yeah. Reviews.

Sniffy: CoeurNoire - thanks for review. Lets think. It's Harry/Hermione, Sirius is alive, it's Remus/Tonks, it's 'Sirius it's Harry's father'. Yeah I like that kind of stories too. When I read OotP for the first time I screamed at Sirius 'Tell her you idiot. Defend your honour. Argh. Idiot!' well it's Blacks time for screaming, well not exactly screaming, but still. If you would check my bio besides finding out my rambling about ships you will find out also that I can survive without Mrs. Weasley around.

Sirius: Shinigami

Sniffy: Well. His worst nightmare is becoming true. 3 Blacks, 3 Lupins and 5 Potters at Hogwarts add Longbottom to it and you will find out his worst nightmare. For Dumbledore's question: well I didn't thought about it –yet because I have other things on my mind but I assure you that I will find a solution. Lily and James, well lets says that someone will be very, very furious and I'm not talking about VoldieMo or Harry…. :coughs: Sirius :coughs: Mirzam :coughs: Coming back to Snape – chapter 16 is very surprising.

Sirius: mickk

Sniffy: I made a family tree. Get to my bio. Click homepage the you will see my LJ. You will find a link to Brother Brother Yahoo Group. I can't pass a link into my bio because for some stupid reason stopped co-operating with me and my links. In BB YG you will find a message where I put family tree.

Sirius: Goldgrin

Sniffy: Well. They are not dead so I don't have to bring them back in the first place. You can't bring back someone who is alive. Lets says that when everything will come out fur will be fly.

Sirius: Kyra

Sniffy: Thanks!

Sirius: Do you have something to say Sniffy?

Sniffy: Yes chapter betaed. READ ANJOY AND REVIEW. Especially last part. I love long reviews. The-One-Who-Should-Not-Be-Named-Now knows about what I'm talking. Long reviews means that I can answer you, especially if you know my email… No lead song.

Sirius: Again?

Chapter fifteen: Blacks women vs. Mrs. Weasley.

They entered the kitchen and saw that everyone settled down. The place on the narrow part of the table, the one that was closer to the kitchen door, was free. On the left side sat George, Ginny, Ron, Amelia Bones, Emmeline Vance, Kingsley Schacklebolt, Remus, Dora, surprisingly Snape, Narcissa, Sirius, then were four free chairs and Mirzam on the narrow part of the table. On her left were three free chairs then Regulus, Belinda, Andromeda, Talitha, Ted, Dedalus Diggle, Dung Fletcher, Mr. Weasley, Mrs. Weasley, Fred, Bill and Charlie. Raven, Rowan, Thabit and Kyle caught free chairs on Mirzam's right and Harry, Draco and Neville caught free chairs on Mirzam's left.

The dinner passed quite nicely mainly because Blacks somehow were sitting as far away from Weasleys as they could. Suddenly Raven felt that someone kicked his left ankle, Raven raised his head from his spaghetti and glanced at Harry.

"Who is that red head boy who is throwing me so nasty glares?" Harry mouthed.

"Ron Weasley. 'Your' best friend" Raven mouthed back.

Harry glared at Ron and mouthed to Raven "I don't like the way he is staring at me"

"He is not staring at you Harry, he is staring at Draco who is sitting next to you" Raven heard Rowan's whisper.

Harry poked Draco into ribs and motioned his head towards Ron.

"No one told you that it's rude to stare at someone when he eats" said Draco at loud and stuck his tongue at Ron.

Kyle and Thabit snorted.

"Unless you have a mammoth crush on him" Harry muttered at loud causing all Blacks and Lupins to laugh and Ron to blush furiously.

Draco turned to Harry and glared at him before he said "Stupid joke Potter"

"Don't look at me Dragon. I didn't started it" Harry smiled at Draco innocently.

Draco huffed before he turned his attention to his plate.

Raven focused his attention on his father who was sitting next to Narcissa, who sat next to Snape. Surprisingly Snape and Sirius had a civil discussion about weather, which was supported by Narcissa.

"Who arranged the way we are sitting?" Raven turned to his mother.

"No one. We only had one point, sit as far away from Weasleys as we could. Snape had the same idea perhaps. He will rather sit closer to Sirius than that Weasley woman" Mirzam muttered eyeing Mrs. Weasley questioningly.

"Why?" asked Raven.

"No one likes bossy red heads" Mirzam muttered through clasped teeth.

"Why?" asked Rowan.

"I'm telling only what I heard from Dora and Remus. Around Easter Snape, Sirius and Mrs. Weasley had a nasty row about if you should stay here this summer. She was suggesting that you should stay next summer with them at the Burrow. Sirius as you imagined refused and those two started quarrelling. She told him if it will be that way then she and her family will stay here with you also. So Sirius told her that he will rather ask Snape to spend holiday here than her because Snape at last will have a decency not to ordering everyone around as they were his children and Snape at last is not sticking his nose in the way Sirius is raising 'Harry'. Snape told him that he has to fall from the stairs if he was saying what Snape heard. So Sirius told him that he will rather befriend with him than let Mrs. Weasley spend another summer here. Snape also happens to dislike Mrs. Weasley so this two has a base to befriend with each other. So Mrs. Weasley took offence and she was badmouthing Sirius for the rest of the school year. Snape told her that Black at last have some decency and he is not badmouthing other people behind their backs, so Mrs. Weasley took offence at him too. End of story" said Mirzam quietly.

"Verascez. How many kids you two have?" Raven heard Snape's voice.

"Two. One son and one godson" Mirzam pointed at Raven and Harry.

"Both in Potions class?" Snape asked.

Mirzam turned to Harry and asked him "What you have on your Potions OWL?"

"Outstanding aunt Mirzam" Harry replied nicely.

"Both. You have five kids from this house in potions class on sixth year" Mirzam shouted to Snape.

"Five!"

"Five. Raven, Rowan, Harry, Neville and Draco. Plus Kyle and Thabit in the first year" said Mirzam.

"Five! Verascez are you sure that you got their results?" Snape asked and Neville and Harry smiled innocently.

"I'm sure" Mirzam replied sweetly.

Snape blinked and Mirzam smiled sweetly.

"Meeting will start in five minutes" said Sirius checking his watch.

"Good. Kids, go to bed" said Mrs. Weasley.

Said kids stayed were they were, Thabit and Kyle started duelling with their forks. Draco pulled out deck of muggle carts and he, Harry and Neville started playing into muggle game called 'war'. Rowan started conversation with Regulus about latest transfiguration charms. Raven was eyeing his mother curiously.

Mirzam ended slipping her wine from the goblet and put the goblet on the table before she glared at Mrs. Weasley. She looked… provocative, like she was saying 'Say something else and you will find out what I will do to you'. Raven turned to Mrs. Weasley.

"What you are waiting for? I said go to bed" Mrs. Weasley repeated.

Narcissa, Belinda, Dora, Talitha and Andromeda were about saying something but one glare from Mirzam silenced them.

"Tell me how many kids you have" said Mirzam aggressively to Mrs. Weasley.

"Seven" she answered.

"How many are here?" Mirzam asked again.

"Six"

"How many are in the Order?"

"Four"

"How many aren't in the Order?"

"Two"

"So send them to bed and leave OUR kids in peace" said Mirzam through clasped teeth.

"I will not listen to what some whippersnapper like you is saying" Mrs. Weasley growled at Mirzam.

"Excuse me? Whippersnapper? What do you think, how old I am?" Mirzam's eyes flashed dangerously.

"Twenty-five, no more" Mrs. Weasley snarled at her.

Mirzam snorted "Twenty-five. And I went to Azkaban when I was ten. That was good" Mirzam voice become cold when she added "I will correct you, you bossy woman. I'm thirty-seven and I don't like when a perfect stranger is bossing around in MY house with MY children or children from MY family. So if you want to boss someone do it to your own kids because I will not tolerate that kind of behaviour in this house. You could do this here last year when I wasn't here but now bear in mind that now you're not the only one mother around. And if we are allowing our kids to stay with us during Order meetings it's our fucking problem not yours" Mirzam ended.

Mrs. Weasley stood up. She was short. Shorter than every women in the house, even Rowan was taller than she was. Mrs. Weasley glared at her before she snarled at Mirzam "You will not talk that way to me!"

Mirzam got to her feet, too, and in her case this was a much more impressive move; she was about head or more taller than Mrs. Weasley and said coldly "I will if I want. Because this is my house and one word from me to Dumbledore and you are going back to your house. I can bark very loud but I can bite hard too, Weasley, so be careful if you don't want to land on my bad side"

"How dare you!"

"I dare, because unlike you I was part of The Order of the Phoenix Inner Circle during first war. Hell still I'm part of Inner Circle" Mirzam growled.

"Inner Circle?" Mrs. Weasley asked.

"Yes Weasley. Inner Circle. Any decent order member knows what Inner Circle is" Mirzam raise one eyebrow.

"Inner Circle. During first war members of the Inner Circle were…" Snape interrupted her.

"Dorcas Meadowes, Andromeda Tonks, Alice Longbottom, Lily Potter, Mirzam Verascez…" Sirius cut him before Snape cut him again.

"Edgar Bones, Ted Tonks, Frank Longbottom, James Potter, Sirius Black plus heads of houses from Hogwart plus Dumbledore himself. The most trusted people Dumbledore had around. Aurors, Healers, Unspeakables"

"The first on You-Know-Who's Kill Quickly and Painfully list. The most respectable members of the Order. They were chiefs of certain departments in the Order. Mirzam, Alice and Lily were responsible for Order's safety, they knew which family had gone into hiding, why, who was the Secret Keeper, where to find them if they are needed. Mirzam and Lily were nineteen when Dumbledore offered them place in the Inner Circle. Alice was twenty. They were responsible of our safety from the beginning and since Lily and Dorcas are dead, and Alice, Alice is not in right state to claim her usual responsibility, it leaves Andromeda and Mirzam in charge of our safety. So I strongly advise you Molly to shut up and obey Mirzam because she knows better what to do. She was with us during first war and she gave the Order more than any one of us could give" said Emmeline Vance.

"Thank you Emmeline. Heard her Weasley. You are talking to the one in charge here and as a member of the Inner Circle I had a right to accept or refuse someone as the Order member so be careful with me. One my word and your services are no longer required. Give me a reason to not trust you and I assure you that I will use all my power to expel you from the Order. Did I made myself clear?" Mirzam's voice was cold as ice.

"What you mean Verascez?" Mrs. Weasley asked.

"I mean Weasley that you" Mirzam pointed directly at Mrs. Weasley "are on probation from now until further notice"

"You can't Dumbledore wouldn't let you, you are mad, escaped convict from Azkaban" Mrs. Weasley muttered.

"I will correct you Weasley. Freed convict from Azkaban, I'm not mad I'm just playing mad and yes I have Dumbledore permission, not only to accept new Order members but also to let children stay during Order meetings. If they have Dumbledore's, mine and their parents permission they can stay with us if not, the rooms on first and second floor are open to them" Mirzam explained.

"And since Raven, Rowan, Harry, Neville, Draco, Thabit and Kyle had their parents or guardians blessing along with Dumbledore's and Mirzam's I strongly advice you to shut up and heard out what the ones who know better have to say. Did I made myself clear?" asked Sirius.

"You don't like being without the power over the others, do you Weasley?" asked Belinda.

"I advice you to hide your pride and obey Mirzam because she is the chief in this house" said Narcissa.

"And she has my blessing. The Blacks need a strong leader and who better suits here than Mirzam" said Talitha.

"Thanks Talitha, Linda, Cissy I really appreciate it" said Mirzam smiling sheepishly.

"Did I miss something?" asked Dumbledore who just appeared in the kitchen.

"Yeah. Quite good piece of fight about domination here. Verascez won" said Snape before he took a sip of wine from his goblet.

Next chapter: Days after. Another attack, or two. Two weddings and a way to Egypt ( not sure about Egypt – I may change it ). Hope that you enjoyed. Remember what I told earlier about REVIEWS – if you get into that point.

OH! I remember something: any sugestion about who should be Harry's love interest - and I mean this Harry who we meet in last chapter...
