Serenity walked into her house and sighed. Livia followed
her in and closed the door.
"I'm going to sleep," Livia yawned. Serenity nodded. "Good night."
"Night," Serenity mumbled as she entered the living room. Percy was sitting on the couch fast asleep. She walked beside him and placed a hand on his shoulder. Percy flinched hard as he woke up.
"Your b-b-back," Percy yawned. Serenity nodded.
"You ready to sleep?" Serenity said. Percy shook his head. "Alright. You wanna play Backgammon?"
"What's that?"
"A muggle game," Serenity said, "Sort of like Chess but better."
"No, I probably can't play it," Percy said.
"Well of course you can't play it," Serenity laughed, "You have never played it before."
"No," Percy said softly, "I am just a failure. I can't do anything right."
"You are not a failure," Serenity said firmly, "You made a mistake, and you can fix it Percy. Go back to your familia. Let them help you."
"N-no," he croaked, "They don't want me back. I'm a blood traitor."
"Sweetie, according to all death eaters the Weasleys are blood traitors," Serenity smiled, "You made a mistake, but your family doesn't hold it against you. So you shouldn't either."
"I can't go back," Percy believed.
"Percy, I'm a vampire you know that," Serenity said, as Percy nodded. "And so is my cousin Octavian, our uncle took care of the both of us, as my parents had died and so had Octavian's mother. This was a thousand years or so ago. When he heard what happened that night we were attacked by the vampire who changed us, he was furious, Octavian was positive that he was angry with us, but of course it was with the vampire. It took my uncle and me three years to convince my cousin that he was wrong. Don't make the same mistake we made and have the sentence made longer."
Percy went silent but nodded. A few moments later he finally asked, "Serenity, who is your uncle?"
"Did Octavian ever tell you how we went to Hogwarts when it first opened?"
"Yes," Percy said, "But what does that have to do with any thing?"
"Do you know Octavian's full name?" Serenity asked ignoring the question.
"No,"
"Godric Albus Octavian Gryffindor the second," Serenity said. Percy gasped in realisation. "Octavian's father was the founder of Gryffindor; my uncle's sister was my mother. Godric's grandchildren where both girls; Sarela and Carina. Sarela married a man named Matthew Weasley and Carina married a man named Henry Potter."
"That means I'm related to Godric Gryffindor," Percy whispered. Serenity nodded. "It means Octavian is my great-great-great-great-great grandfather!"
"Yup," Serenity smiled. Percy thought in silence as Octavian walked in dressed in his boxer shorts and a singlet.
"That will explain the generation of Potters and Weasleys entering my father house," Octavian said. "But now, Serenity tell him what you had to do to protect your children."
"Nice try but I'm not telling who my final son is," Serenity hissed. Octavian rolled his eyes.
"Serenity I mean tell him what you had to give up just to protect your only son, and his family," Octavian said, "I understand you don't trust anyone enough to tell who the final one is."
"Oh," Serenity said, she turned to Percy and sighed. "When I turned seventeen I meet a werewolf who I-" she snorted "-fell in love with. We married and he knocked me up-" Octavian rolled his eyes "-I had my son who as well married and had his children. When I turned 25 I was tricked into biting my mate, which turned him into half a vampire, as I had found out his treachery and I cursed him into never regaining full vampire powers until he managed to kill me. As a way to get back to me he killed my son and his wife and two of his three children. I managed to save the middle and I hide her. But around thirty some thing years ago, my family were slowly dying down only three people with my blood were left. A mother and her two children. My mate found them and managed to kill her and her oldest daughter. But I again hid my last child. When Voldemort was in power before he fell he cursed me so that my mate would regain full power once he killed my final child."
"Who is he?"
"You know him," Serenity sighed, "He bit your brother only weeks ago."
"Greyback!" Percy said in surprise. Serenity nodded.
"What if Greyback find out who the last one is?"
"I'll die trying to save him," Serenity said. "Now back onto to you, I know you don't want to move back into the Burrow, but Bill would love to have you at his wedding."
"But I have no invitation," Percy said sadly.
"I'll get one," Serenity said, "Percy listen to me: you will never find a family like the one you have, don't let them go."
------
"What you doing Bill?" Fred asked.
"Writing Percy an invitation," Bill answered as he rubbed his forehead.
"Why are you so stressed out then, and what's with all the trash on the ground," George said, looking at the scrunched up papers thrown all over the room.
"I'm writing him an apology also," Bill snapped. "Now can you both buggar off!"
"Alright keep your shoes on," Fred said. The twins left as Bill growled.
"You're sounding more and more like a werewolf," Serenity said, from above him. Bill jumped and looked up to see the vampire floating above his head.
"Hey," Bill said, as she floated down.
"What you doing?"
"Writing Percy an invitation to the wedding seeing as I sent the rest a week ago," Bill said.
"Then what's with the snow around you?"
"An apology that just wont come out correctly," Bill sighed.
"Bill, your going to see him at your wedding," Serenity said, sounding frustrated.
"Well duh,"
"I mean apologize then," Serenity smiled. "A letter is meaningless, words mean much more."
"But I'm writing my feelings," Bill said.
"Speaking 'em is much easier, pup," Serenity smiled.
"Hey! I'm not a dog!" Bill snapped.
"Wolf, dog, same thing," Serenity shrugged. "Any way the moon is in a few days, how do you feel?"
"Kinda weird," Bill muttered, looking away.
"What's wrong, pup?" Serenity asked.
"Why'd he bite me?" Bill sniffed
"Why does he bite any one?" Serenity sighed.
"I mean, here I was, everything going perfect for me," Bill sighed, "Found the love of my live, engaged her, perfect job, good health, and the best family. And then he came along. Some times I think God's trying to punish me, but I don't know why."
By the end of his monologue he had a tear streaming down his face. Serenity bit her lip. "No pup, God's not punishing you, some times things happen but it's never the good side that cause it. God's a forgiver. He is called the Father because he always forgives his children no matter what they do."
"So why did He let Greyback hurt me," Bill whispered wiping his tear hastily.
"Not God," Serenity said, "You are asking the wrong side. And you haven't done any thing wrong for God to punish you any way."
"Yes I have," Bill sighed, "I'm a crap older brother, and I barely look out for even Char any more."
"Your sibs would say differently," Serenity smiled.
"You're probably right," Bill sighed, "Next time I see that bastard I'll kill him. His time on earth is limited. His ass is mine."
"Nope," Serenity disagreed. "I taxed him centuries ago."
"He ain't that old," Bill said.
"Yes he is," Serenity said, "I bite him centuries ago so he is half vampire until he kills our final son."
"What?" Bill said. Serenity sighed.
"We all make mistakes," Serenity muttered, "Mine was trusting him and loving him."
"He-he was the one who-"
Serenity nodded. "Never mind that though, just know I'm gonna kill him."
Bill nodded back. "Only if I get to join you."
Serenity smiled. "We better tell Wolffi. He'd wanna join too…"
Bill stared at Serenity. "Lupin, join us in killing someone?"
Serenity sniggered. "Maybe you're right."
---------
"Livia, have you made up your mind yet?" Remus asked. "Or do you need more time?"
"Do I have to?" Livia sighed.
"Yes," Remus answered. Livia went silent as Remus sipped at his Wolfsbane potion.
"Good thing Serenity can make that potion," Livia said absentmindedly.
"Yes," Remus said, "At least if Bill is a werewolf, it won't hurt as much as usual."
"You know what," Livia muttered, "If I'm headmistress, wont that mean I have to choose new staff."
"Yes," Remus said softly.
"Good, then I accept," Livia said, "Call the clowns and tell them I'm in. I know already who my new staff is."
"Who?" Remus smiled.
"Serenity will be great as the Potions Proffesor, seeing she aced it so many years ago," Livia said, "And as for Defence who better then you?"
Remus gasped in surprise. "What?"
"You Remus, when you were teaching the class were going brilliant," Livia said. "My father said you had to be the best teacher he could remember!"
Remus blushed, "Well I think that's exaggerating it a bit."
"Oh please," Livia sighed. "He was right, you're hired."
Remus smiled at her, "Thank you."
"Don't thank me," Livia said, "Thank you, and Ree."
"I'll remind my self," Remus laughed.
"Did I miss something?" Serenity said.
"No just I've accepted the Headmaster position and Remus and you are now both teachers as Hogwarts," Livia said.
"Cool, but first you need to convince people to open the school,"
"Fuck it," Livia sighed, her head dropping, "Why don't we just make our own school and call it Warthog?"
Serenity and Remus both laughed.
-------
The Order of the Phoenix sat in a small room waiting for Livia and Serenity to return from their mission to get Hogwarts re-opened. Today was an important day. They were planning on reading Dumbledore's Will to the order, and were initiating Harry and many of his friends into the order.
"So how long will it take for them to return?" Ron sighed.
"When they are ready!" Molly snapped. Ron sighed again; Harry laughed and patted his friend on the back.
"You reckon they will get the school open," Ginny asked.
"Yes," Hermione said.
"One way or another," Tonks added. "Serenity won't leave til they do."
"Nymphodora is right," Remus laughed, "Serenity is far to stub-Ow!"
A small ball hit him across the head hard. Every one stared at the thrower and laughed when the saw Serenity hanging from the ceiling laughing. Livia was floating beside her.
"What happened?" Fred asked. "Is the school open?"
"We wouldn't be here if it wasn't," Serenity laughed. The room erupted into cheers as Serenity took her bows.
"Thank her," Livia laughed, "She scared them into it. Chucked a Lucius Malfoy."
"With out the money!" Serenity snorted. The group laughed again. "Read the will."
"I'll shorten it," Mad-eye muttered, "Dumbledore wanted Harry, Hermione and Ron to join."
"That's it?" Serenity said, "Well then welcome to the OOP"
"Thank you," the trio said together.
"Well I don't know about you guys but I am hungry," Serenity said, she clicked her finger and food of all sort appeared. "Lets eat!"
The group ate as Serenity walked over to Bill.
"Hey Seri," Bill said, chewing at a lamb chop.
"Hey pup," Serenity said, "Is that meat nice?"
"Yes- Oh God!" Bill cried. It was still raw and he enjoyed it. He growled and threw the lamb chop over his shoulder. He hit Charlie across the head who threw a bread loaf at Bill's head.
"FOOD FIGHT!" Fred and George yelled. The hall erupted as Serenity decided it was time to leave.
That night.
Bill walked behind Remus, feeling very nauseous. Remus turned his head and smiled at Bill.
"It'll be okay Bill," Remus assured. They entered a room where Remus cast a spell so it couldn't be opened. He placed his wand down near the door and motioned to Bill to do the same. He complied and watched as Remus pulled of his cloak. He was left in only shorts and t-shirt, revealing his scarred skin. Bill then noticed the bite marks near his left ankle.
"Is that were he bit you?" Bill asked also peeling of the cloak.
"Yes," Remus said, "Bill if you don't change, relax, I won't hurt you after I have taken the potion"
Bill nodded and sat down against the wall staring out the small window above his head. He saw as the moon came and settle in the small room. He looked up to see Remus transform from a small man to a large wolf. He whimpered as the Wolf stared him down. Suddenly it pounced at Bill causing the boy to scream. Moony landed on Bill and began to lick Bill's scars.
"Remus,"
'What is it Bill?' the wolf asked.
"You can talk Remus?" Bill asked.
'I'm growling Bill,' Moony said, 'you can understand me, because you are a wolf too.'
"But I haven't transformed," Bill said.
'I know,' Moony said.
"I don't understand Remus,"
'I don't either,' Moony said, 'Bill, please call me Moony."
"Okay," Bill nodded. "But that means you have to call me pup."
'Pup?'
"Serenity,"
'oh'
--------
Serenity yawned as she unlocked the door. Bill and Remus walked out smiling at Serenity.
"So w-w-what happened?" Serenity said stifling a yawn.
"He didn't transform," Remus said, "But he understood Moony."
"Well I'm confused," Serenity said.
"Join the club," Bill muttered.
-------
"Serenity," Charlie called, walking towards the vampire. "Where the hell is Percy staying at?"
"My house, why?" the vampire answered, not looking up as she filed her nails.
"Cause I wanna see him," Charlie said.
"Well he doesn't wanna speak to any one yet," Serenity said. "You'll see him at the wedding any way."
"So!" Charlie snapped, "I wanna see him now!"
"Charlie," Serenity sighed, "I'm cleaning my nails, buggar off."
Charlie rolled his eyes as he walked of. "I'll find him my self."
"Good luck," Serenity smiled.
-------
Livia walked up to Serenity and sat beside her. She now was painting her nails.
"Ree, what will you do about Narcissa and her son?" Livia said.
"I don't know, they were fine in the caves I left them in," Serenity said, "I am just glad I was visiting Voldie at that time."
"I know,"
"Why do you care any way?" Serenity said, "The boy's part of the reason De'door's dead."
"No, Snape's the reason De'door is dead," Livia answered, "And where did you come up with De'door?"
"No idea," Serenity said. "Where did he come up with Sero?"
Livia laughed softly. "I was thinking, maybe Draco can return to school."
"Hmm, good idea," Serenity mumbled. "Actually Halle wants to talk to us about that son of hers."
"Has she figured which husband was the father yet?" Livia sniggered. Serenity laughed harder.
"No but I told her to come today to the burrow,"
"Are you sure?" Livia said, "What if she brings the boy with her?"
"I don't think she will," Serenity said, "I mean she goes to Muggle land with out him more then half the time. He is a big boy any way, she leaves him alone all the time."
"What if he goes to the Dark Lord? Ree, he is a Slytherin!"
"He wont, Halle and I won't let him," Serenity said.
"I wonder what Halle has on her mind?"
"Dunno but she should be here in about-"
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?" Ron Weasley's voice came.
"Maybe she has brought him with her," Livia sighed. The pair walked towards the noise and both laughed when they saw their friend, a tall half African half Caucasian lady, standing in front of her handsome young son. Both had their wands out as did the rest of the people.
"OI!" Serenity screeched walking over, "WANDS DOWN! NOW!"
"Katma?" Remus said as he ran out side. The woman turned to face him.
"Lupin?"
"What are you doing here?" Lupin asked as he walked up to Serenity and Livia.
"I need to speak with Liv and Nitty," Halle said. The boy glared at Ron and Harry who both glared back. Halle turned to her son, "that's enough!"
"Wow! Look how much he has grown since last time we saw him," Livia exclaimed. The boy raised a brow.
"When was the last time we saw him?" Serenity said walking up to the pair, she pushed Halle out of the way and grabbed the boy by the cheeks and began to shake him while saying in a high-pitched baby voice, "Hello Blaisie Waisie! Aren't you a cute wittle pumpkin?"
Blaise shrugged her off in horror rubbing his sore cheeks. The Weasley children, Hermione and Harry laughed. Blaise pulled his wand out only to have his mother slap him across the head. He put it away in annoyance.
"What are we doing here?" He finally snapped. His mother glared at him, he only glared back defiantly.
"We are going to talk about your future at Hogwarts," Halle said, "Now go and play nicely with the other children."
"I'm not 'playing' with them!"
"NOW!" Halle screeched pushing her son towards the group. Blaise hissed at her but walked off. Halle looked at the werewolf and two vampires, she pointed to the bench and swings at the front of the Burrow. "Shall we sit there?"
"Sure," Serenity said, "Last one there is a rotten egg!"
Both Serenity and Halle ran off towards the bench as Livia went to speak to Molly. Remus slowly made his way to the bench.
"Sorry Molly we should have warned you she was coming," Livia apologized.
"Nonsense," Molly smiled, "Its alright."
"Now I have to excuse my self," Livia said. "I am not going to be the rotten egg."
She ran towards the bench, running past Remus who gasped and ran also.
-------
Blaise glared at his mother's back as she sat on the bench and talked with the other half-breeds. He turned back to see Molly and Arthur Weasley go inside. Ron, Ginny, Hermione and Harry were all glaring daggers at him. Bill however just stared at him.
"Who the hell are you again?" Bill asked.
"He's a Slytherin," Ron said in disgust. Blaise sneered at him.
"I was talking to him, Ron," Bill sighed. He turned to Blaise again, "How do you know Serenity and Livia?"
"I don't," Blaise said, "My mother does."
"Oh so that's your mum," Harry sniggered, "She's the one who's married seven different men."
"She probably killed them all," Ron laughed.
"Shut up," Bill snapped.
"Why?" Ginny said, "He's a future death eater."
"Ginny!" Bill snapped, as Blaise laughed. "What's so funny?"
"Just because I'm in Slytherin doesn't mean I'm gonna become a death eater," Blaise pointed out.
"Yeah right," Hermione scoffed. Blaise glared at her.
"Tell me about it," Harry said, "All Slytherins are filth, just like Voldemort, just like Malfoy last years you're gonna take that mark, whether you want to or not."
"Voldemort is gonna have to kill me first," Blaise muttered, Harry was about to say something when they heard Serenity calling them.
"HEY! GET YOUR ASSES OVER HERE!" The group slowly made their way over to the vampires and werewolf. "STEP ON IT!"
---------
Charlie sighed, after five hours; he still hadn't found his brother. He sat down and leaned against a rock closing his eyes. He was very tired, and wasn't very alert. This may have been the reason he didn't hear the curse aimed at him.
------
"What's going on?" Blaise asked as he sat beside his mother. She ignored him
"Are you three going to Hogwarts this year?" Serenity asked staring at the trio.
"No," Harry said.
"Why not?" Remus asked, "There better be a good reason, your parents wouldn't like it if you dropped out of school. Any of you."
"I'm going after Voldemort," Harry said, "But I'll need their help."
"That's a good reason," Serenity said quickly, before Livia or Remus could say any thing.
"What the hell is going on?" Blaise said again.
"Your mother doesn't want you to stay with in the Slytherin house, so from now on you're going to be with the Gryffindor,"
"Say what?" Blaise said shaking his head, "Did I hear correctly? You want me to do what?"
"Blaise be quiet," Halle snapped, "You heard quite well."
"MUM!" Blaise whined, "I can't stay with the Gryffindors all year, we hate each other!
"Thank God we are not in school," Ron sighed.
"Speak for your self," Ginny said.
"It'll be fine Blaise," Remus assured, "There are boys your age in the house."
"I know that!" Blaise snapped. "A squib, a half blood, and a frigging mudblood."
"Hey!" the group said. Halle slapped Blaise across the head.
"I'm not doing it!" Blaise snapped.
"Hey maybe we can get Draco as well," Livia suggested.
"Good idea," Serenity said when she suddenly jumped up.
"What's wrong?" Livia asked.
"He's in trouble," Serenity said.
"Who?" Bill asked.
"Charlie" Serenity said clicking her finger. She disappeared.

Next Chappie: Will they rescue Charlie in time and can Serenity keep the last child hidden from Greyback?
