Chappie five
Harry sat staring into the wall, wondering how he'd defeat Voldemort. He didn't have a clue the rest of the horcruxes were, he had no idea who R.A.B was, and he wished Dumbledore was still alive or even Sirius. Sirius. Sirius Black. Regulus Black.
Was it possible Regulus had a middle name? Did it start with an 'A'?
Harry shot up and ran towards the door. Hermione and Ron looked up.
"Harry, what's wrong?" Hermione asked, both jumping after him.
"Regulus Black, what if he was R.A.B?" Harry asked.
"Harry, you may be right," Hermione said.
"But how are we going to find out?" Ron asked.
"I'll ask Lupin," Harry said, "He might now, other wise I'm going to Grimmauld's."
"We'll come with you," Ron added.
"I won't even bother arguing," Harry said as he walked up to Tonks and Remus Lupin.
"What's wrong Harry?" Remus asked.
"Do you know if Sirius' brother had a middle name?" Harry asked. Remus shook his head.
"I haven't got a clue, what about you Dora?"
"Nadda," Tonks said. "Why?"
"Tell you later," Harry said, running of, Ron and Hermione followed. Tonks shrugged, as Remus shook his head.
------
Harry ran into the house ignoring Mrs Black's screams. Ron however told her to shut the hell up! This only angered her more. Harry ran to the family tree straight to Regulus' name but only found that his name was Regulus Black. Harry growled kicking the wall. Ron caught up to him.
"Sorry mate," Ron sighed. "I thought it was him too."
The two boys turned and walked of when Hermione called them back, "Wait, Harry call Kreacher."
"Why?" Harry asked, not wanting to call the wretched elf. Hermione gave him a look, "Fine, KREACHER!"
There was a pop and an angry, ugly elf showed up. Kreacher glared at Harry.
"Ask him if Regulus had a middle name," Hermione said. Harry understood what she meant finally.
"Kreacher, did Regulus have a middle name?" Harry asked. Kreacher glared at him and answered stubbornly.
"No," Harry sighed.
"What about any other Blacks?" Harry asked, "Did any have the initials R.A.B?"
Kreacher thought and then nodded. "The blood traitor who married the filthy mudblood-"
Before Kreacher could finish Harry back handed the elf, sending him to the ground. Hermione gasped and ran to the elf helping him up, "Harry!"
"Serves him right," Ron said.
"If he is going to answer me," Harry growled, glaring at the elf, "He will answer with out insulting the person. Now answer me, and no insults."
Kreacher bit his tongue and then frustrated said, "Andromeda has the initials R.A.B."
"But her names Andromeda Black Tonks," Hermione said, Harry and Ron nodded in agreement.
"No, her name is Rahne Andromeda Black," Kreacher snapped. Harry whacked Kreacher again.
"Don't talk to Hermione like that," Harry snapped, "You can go now."
Kreacher left. Hermione shook her head at Harry.
"This whole time we could have just asked Tonks," Ron sighed. Harry and Hermione had to laugh.
--------
"Tonks why didn't you tell us your mum was R.A.B?" Ron snapped as the entered the burrow.
"What the hell are you on about?"
"Rahne Andromeda Black," Ron snapped.
"Oh yeah, that's her name," Tonks said, "Why?"
"She may be the R.A.B who found Voldemort's horcrux," Harry said. "Where can we find her?"
Tonks stood up and headed towards the floo system, she threw some dust into the fire and stuck her head in, "MUM! Harry Potter needs to talk to you! I don't know just hurry up! No! I'm not hungry! I've eaten! MUM! Just come!"
She pulled herself out as a woman around Molly's age came out of the fire. She had dark red hair, green eyes and a face shaped just like Tonks.
"Hello," She smiled at everyone; she grinned when Molly walked over and embraced her like a sister. "How are you?"
"I'm well, and you?"
"Great," Andromeda said, she turned to Harry, "What's wrong dear?"
"Did you take Voldemort's locket?" Harry asked. Andromeda smiled.
"The one he hid in a cave?" she smirked.
"The exact one," Harry said.
"I had it, but I gave it away,"
"To who?" Harry asked.
"Serenity Eden," Andromeda answered, "The lockets was hers before it was Salazar Slytherin's"
"There was two lockets?"
"One was Godric Gryffindor which belongs to Octavian and the one Voldemort took was-"
"Slytherin's," Harry finished. "I just have to wait for Serenity to return."
"That'll be a while," Octavian said. He closed the door behind him and observed who was inside. The trio, Remus, and the Tonks. "Why do you need her?"
"Slytherin's locket," Harry answered. "Its one of Voldemort's Horcruxes."
"Harry, is it possible the Gryffindor's locket is one as well?" Hermione asked.
"No, he hasn't touched my locket yet," Octavian said. "Why?"
"Voldemort is using belongings of the founders as horcruxes," Harry answered. "There was the diary, the snake, the ring, the cup, the locket and Nagini. I destroyed Riddle's dairy, Dumbledore destroyed Slytherin's ring, and Serenity ate the snake-"
The group burst into laughter which caused Harry to laugh. He continued when the laughter died down. "All that's left is Hufflepuff's cup, the locket, and some thing from Gryffindor or Ravenclaw."
"Octavian, do you know anything that your father owned that Voldemort could have taken?" Remus asked. Octavian shook his head.
"Serenity and I hid all that we could," Octavian said, "You will need to ask Serenity for the locket, I will search through my father's things. If I see any thing suspicious I'll give it to you."
"Okay thanks,"
"Maybe you should try the sorting hat and my father's sword,"
"Wait, Gryffindor was your father?" Ron asked. Octavian nodded.
"I have to go, Serenity needs help," Octavian left with out another word.
---------
"Serenity he is going to give birth any minute now," Gabriella said pointing to a heavily pregnant Charlie. "How is he going to do it?"
"Where the hell is my knife?" Serenity asked.
"Why?"
"Why do you think?" Serenity said heading up to her room. She opened the door and smirked when she saw Severus asleep on her sofa. She raised a hand and telekinetically carried him to her bed; she covered him with a silky blanket and head to a trunk in the corner of her room. She opened it and rummaged through it. She pulled out a sharp dagger which had a bronze eagle carved onto it.
She heard Charlie scream in pain. Livia was screaming for her to hurry down. Serenity phased herself down to the pregnant man going through carpet and ceiling. She landed next to Charlie and grabbed two tissues, stuffing one up each nostril, hoping it would stop her from smelling the blood. Livia, Gabriella and Samuel done the same as Serenity tore of Charlie's robes. She then leaned in, and breathed on Charlie. Instantly he passed out, it was the same gas she would use to knock out her prey as she killed them. She ripped all the clothes of his stomach leaving it bare.
Percy closed his eyes as she cut a deep hole into his stomach. The three younger vampires all lean in, when Serenity pulled out a bloody infant from Charlie's womb, and spat saliva Charlie's womb. The cut began to heal slowly, until finally it was only a fresh scar. Serenity ran the infant to the sink and poured warm water all over him causing the gunk and blood to run off.
"Why isn't he crying?" Percy asked, running to the vampire. Serenity slapped the infant across the behind causing the infant to cry. "Serenity!"
"Get me a towel Perce," Serenity said as the baby began to shiver while he cried. Percy obeyed grabbing a soft white towel. Serenity wrapped the baby up and held him against her chest. He was still crying but seemed to be lulling of to sleep. She walked over to Charlie who was now sitting up staring at the small infant in her hands. Serenity sat beside Charlie and handed him his son.
The moment the boy was in Charlie's arms, his tiny eyes opened revealing hazel eyes just like Charlie, and his hair was plentiful and black. A tiny hand had risen towards Charlie's face. Serenity stood up and pulled out her wand; with a swish all the blood disappeared. Percy helped Charlie up and led him to an arm chair. He smiled at his new nephew.
"What's his name Charlie?" Percy asked. Charlie shrugged, staring fondly at his son.
------
Severus sat up pushing a large brown teddy bear of him. He rolled his eyes, when he noticed he was cuddling the red bear he was looking at earlier. HE stood up still holding the bear and stretched. He looked around and yawned, noticing the trunk in the corner was open. He walked over and peered inside when the door opened and Serenity walked in. She stared suspiciously at him.
"What are you doing with Ziggy?" Serenity said, staring at the bear. Severus looked down at the bear and tossed it to the bed. Serenity sniggered and tossed her dagger into the trunk. The lid fell with a thud and locked it self.
"What happened?" Severus asked.
"You have a son," Serenity said, "He is healthy and has your hair."
"He doesn't have my nose, does he?" Severus asked. Serenity shook her head. "Good, has Weasley named him yet?"
"No," Serenity said, "I have to go; I'll be back tonight, with Tacos."
"What are-" She left before he could finish his sentence. He looked at the ground sadly and headed back to the bed. He picked up Ziggy and cuddled the bear as he sat next to another fifty bears. Severus shook his head; "And I thought I was obsessed with the Dark arts."
Severus picked up another album. It was much older then the others. He opened it and read the writing.
Serenity Eden's Photo Album, photo's taken during the first years of Hogwarts.
Severus raised a brow and turned the page, He gasped when he saw a photo of Hogwarts; it looked much smaller and newer. The photo was still, the magical world had still not invented the potion to cause photos to move. He turned the page again and saw a photo of the Founders. There was each founder in their founding robes. Salazar stood next to Godric who had and arm around both Salazar and Helga. Helga was smiling brightly her short reddish-brown hair shining in the sun, her green eyes glimmering. Salazar's own hair was a light brown in colour. Godric was a black haired and browned eyed muscled man. Rowena sat in a seat in front of the other founders her long silvery white hair flowing around her chest and back. She smiled fondly at the camera as was Godric. Salazar wasn't smiling but he had a gleam in his hazel eyes, he was much smaller then Godric and looked much younger.
Severus turned the page and saw a photo of Godric with his heavy muscly arms around his great grandmother and Octavian. Both were beaming at the camera, barely teenagers.
He turned again to see a photo of Rowena and Salazar duelling with Helga and Godric in the back ground. Without wands. Rowena has Salazar in an arm lock as Helga and Godric laughed. The next photo was of Octavian and Godric. Godric had an arm around Octavian again. The next photo was of all the students that were the first students of Hogwarts. Severus looked for Serenity and saw her right at the back looking at something in the distant. He wondered what it was. The next four photos were single shots of the founders.
Severus was about to turn the page when there was a gentle knock on the door. He closed the book and grabbed his wand. "Who is it?"
"Me," Charlie said, Severus put his wand down and stood up. He opened the door and breathed deeply when he saw Charlie holding a baby in his arms. Had he not known about the potion Severus would not have believe this was his son. The boy now looked like he was at least half a year old. "He won't stop growing."
Severus looked at Charlie, who seemed to be struggling not to cry. "It's the potion."
"Can I come in?" Charlie asked. Severus nodded, letting Charlie into the room.
"Have you given him a name?" Severus asked. Charlie shook his head, "Why not?"
"I was hoping you could help me," Charlie said, "I don't really have a favourite boy name, only a girl."
"Give me a minute," Severus headed towards a book shelf and looked around, he pulled out a book, "Here One hundred and One Latin names for Bubs or Pets."
"Is that Serenity's?" Charlie asked.
"I guess so," Severus said handing the book to Charlie who sat down on the sofa. Severus sat beside him, unprepared for what happened next. Charlie placed the infant in his arms and began to read the book. In a high-pitch un-Snape like vice he asked; "Why is he in my arms?"
"Because its your fault we have a son together so shut up and hold him," Charlie said smiling at Severus, who growled in annoyance. The boy laughed at the growl. "See he likes you, that is the first time he has laughed."
"Very funny," Severus sighed.
"What do you think of the name Andric?"
"What does it mean?"
"Manly, brave,"
"Next,"
"Caelum?"
"Next,"
"Christian,"
"Why don't we just call him Jew or Hindi?"
"Okay next, heh what about Cupid?"
"Which sane parent would call their child Cupid?"
"Alright, alright, what about Dantae?"
"Next,"
"Felix?"
"Next,"
"Justin?"
"Next," Severus sighed, the boy giggled again.
"Lukas," Charlie yawned. Severus went silent for a minute, Charlie looked hopeful as did the baby, but,
"Next,"
"Patrick?"
"Next,"
"Phillip,"
"Next,"
"I wish he was a girl,"
"Next,"
"Are you even listening to what I am saying?"
"Yes, next," Severus snapped. Charlie and the baby both laughed.
"Remy?"
"After Lupin, I think not, next,"
"I was thinking more the X-men,"
"What?"
"Just a muggle comic I use to read," Charlie smiled, "What about Solan?"
"That's nice but keep going,"
"Hey your names in here,"
"Of course it is, my name is Latin,"
"Oh, any way, Treyton,"
"No," Severus said. "Oh she also has the same book but in Native American."
"She has all languages," Charlie said, grabbing a handful of books. "Ashur."
"An Assyrian King, I like that," Severus said taking the book from Charlie. "Sennacherib, Essarhaddon, Sargon, Ninurta."
"Ninurta sounds like a girl name," Charlie said.
"That's because it is," Severus said. Charlie leaned over and pointed at a name. "Tiglath Piseler, that's a mouthful. That's not a baby book Charlie, that's a history book."
"So it is," Charlie muttered, "The Assyrian Empire, by Carla Archer."
"Tiglath Pileser," Severus repeated, "Shalmaneser, Assur-Banipal."
"I like Enlil," Charlie said pointed at a name. "Which one do you like?"
"Assur-Banipal," Severus said,not paying attention to Charlie as his son was gurgling at him.
"Then its settled,"
"What's settled?"
"His name,"
"What?"
"Enlil Assur-Banipal," Charlie said, Severus choked on nothing, "Weasley or Snape."
"Isn't that a little long?"
"We can call him Enlil for short," Charlie said, "Or Ash, or Bani. Now is it Snape or Weasley?"
"What?"
"His last name," Charlie sighed, Severus stared at Charlie. "Weasley or Snape."
"Weasley," Severus said, "Enlil Assur-Banipal Snape sounds terrible."
"Enlil Assur-Banipal Weasley doesn't sound much better," Charlie muttered, "What about no last name."
"I think your right with that," Severus said, he placed his son on his back, on the ground and smiled at the boy. "That's your name isn't it Enlil?"
The boy looked up and giggled, he turned himself onto his stomach and slowly began to crawl to the sofa.
"He can crawl?" Charlie gaped. Severus nodded stiffly in utter shock. The boy was gurgling again but was repeating his words.
"Enly, Enly, Enly, Enly," Enlil churned. Charlie's hand flew to his mouth in shock as the boy slowly lifted him self into kneeling position next to the sofa. He pulled him self up next to the sofa and stared at Severus. "Dada!"
"Did he just call me dada!" Severus muttered.
"I think so," Charlie whispered.
Enlil stared at him and then playfully screamed, "MAMA!"
"I'm not your mama!" Charlie scolded, "I'm your dada too!"
"Mama!"
"Dada!"
"MAMA!" Enlil cried stomping his foot. In his sudden out burst of anger, he lost his footing and landed on his bottom, which was cushioned by his nappy.
"I see you have your mother's clumsiness," Severus said pulling the boy up.
"Well he has you anger management problem," Charlie retorted, "and don't call me that!"
--------
Serenity and Livia walked up to the older vampire's bedroom.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" Serenity asked.
"Yes, I have to get this over and done with," Livia said, she rubbed her forehead as Serenity opened her door. The two entered the room and awed at the sight. There was Severus asleep on the couch with the boy and Charlie in his arms also asleep. "It is the potion doing that to them isn't it."
"Yes, not only does it impregnate a person its also a love potion," Serenity said. "It'll die of once the boy dies. Then the two will try to kill each other."
"Is there a way of saving the boy?" Livia sighed.
"Not that I know of," Serenity sighed.
"What if you bite him when he is older?" Livia asked, "Will it not immortalize him?"
"Maybe," Serenity thought, "We can try it once he is twenty-one days."
"Why twenty-one?"
"I don't want to have a teenager annoying me," Serenity said, "And he will be legal in all worlds."
"I suppose," Livia smiled.
---------
Hehe
Yes- yes, I know cameras were not made until later but maybe the magical world had already made cameras before muggles? Whatever.
Poor Charlie, Serenity didn't seemed too bothered about cutting him up. Enlil is an Assyrian god by the way, don't remember which on I think it was the Sun god. But Enly was cute
And I guess no one saw that coming with R.A.B, I just don't think its Reggie, its to obvious otherwise, JKR likes to annoy us with her riddles(No pun intended!)
Andromeda was fun to write about…
Next Chappie… More on the horcruxes, Charlie and Percy go home with Enly, the wedding and maybe more Malfoy crap.
