After eating lunch Harry was heading back to his room when tonks called him back.
"A letter from Luna Lovegood just came for you." She said handing him the letter.
Harry nodded than continued back to his room. He sat down on the bed than opened it.
"Dear Harry,
I can?t wait for the party; it?s going to great with all my friends there. Everyone from the old DA club will be there as well as a few others. Even Cho and her sneak of a friend will be there. Anyway to get to the Hollow you have to use a teleportation spell. The Floo Network is still not working. Ask an adult how to do it so you don?t get lost. My address is 1313 Widdershins Pl. The Hollow.
See you there.
Love from Luna
Harry folded up the letter than muttered "Cho?s going to be there."
"Who?s Cho?" said a voice from the wardrobe and Harry smiled than got up and opened it.
"Cho is this girl I think I used to like." Said Harry
"You think you used to like?" said Lily confused
"It?s a long and involved story.? Said Harry "let?s just say she wasn?t the girl I thought she was. I mean she was nice just a bit too?too?"
"Clingy?" said Sirius and lily hit him in the shoulder.
"Yeah kinda but it was more because she was so emotional. She almost always has tears in her eyes. She even cries when she?s happy."
"Yeah well girls a like that sport." Said James and Lily hit him too and the other guys laughed.
"She?s also unnecessarily jealous of my best friend Hermione Granger." Said Harry and James raised eyebrows at him
"Your best friend is a girl and your girl friend is jealous. That?s natural Harry." Said Lily
"Yeah but I don?t think of Hermione in that way. My other best friend Ron does. He?s liked her for awhile now but he?s just too chicken to do anything about it." Said Harry
"Yeah well guys are like that." Said Lily "So do you still like Cho?"
"Yeah kinda but we didn?t part on good terms. We sort of had an argument and I called her a cry baby, just not in those words." Said Harry
"Well Harry it looks like you have a delima on your hands." Said James
"So what did you mean by ?Cho?s going to there, Cho?s going to be where?" Lily asked
"Oh at my friend Luna?s birthday party and speaking of birthday?s I didn?t get her present. Be right back." Said Harry and he closed the door.
Harry hadn?t anticipated seeing Cho at the party but right now that was the least of his worries, he needed to get a gift for Luna.
Harry went back downstairs to Tonks who watching something on the television.
"Hey how did you get the TV to work?" Harry asked
"Just a little magic." Said Tonks "I?m watching my favorite game show, Which Witch is Which."
"Okay I just wanted to ask you if you know what I should get Luna Lovegood for her birthday." Said Harry and he sat down next to Tonks.
"Hmm, well from what I?ve heard about her she?s a quiet interesting person." Said Tonks
"By interesting you mean weird." Said Harry and Tonks smiled.
"How about a pet of some sort." Tonks suggested "Something nice and girly but just weird enough for Luna."
"That's a great idea thanks Tonks." said Harry jumping up "I?ll go look in my book Fantastic Beast and Where to find them."
Harry ran back up stairs to find his book and he started looking at the many different magical animals.
What do you mean by no longer?" Shiva asked
"He was married a very long time ago." Said Sable
"How long?" Shiva asked
"I was still in Hogwarts when they were they got engaged." Said Sable
"Were they in love?" Shiva asked
"They were." said Sable "I went to the wedding, probably the only blood relative there."
"What do you mean what about your parents?" Shiva asked
"They completely disapproved of the match and they did not want to be there." Said Sable sadly
"What happened to Snape and his wife, why aren?t they together now?"
"Well only 3 months after the wedding, Sev's wife Aronia was pregnant with twin girls. But what Severus did not know at the time was that Aronia?s family has a history of heart problems." Said Sable "Long story short, during labor, Aronia had a heart gave out and she died."
"Oh my God." Shiva whispered.
"Sev was devastated. Didn't talk to anyone for weeks. He just shut himself up in his room with the twins."
"What happened to the twins?" Shiva asked
"Well Sev loved the girls but he really couldn?t take care of them by himself so he gave them to me." Said Sable
"But weren't you still in school?" said Shiva
"No by then I was at the end of my Seventh year and U went to live with my best friend Dillian and she helped me raise the girls."
"What are they?re names?"
"Alana and Sile (Shee-lah)." Said Sable "I put them both in a private magic school but sense I now live at Hogwarts they will start going here."
"How does your brother feel about it?"
"He's happy." Said Sable "He hardly gets to see them because either they were in school or he was in school. But now he?ll get to see them everyday."
"how do the girls feel about it?" asked Shiva and sable sighed.
"I wish they were happier about it." Said Sable "They have always known why my brother gave them to me but that doesn't change the fact that they don't like him all that much. They are supposed to be coming here in two days with my friend."
"How old are they?"
"They are turning 16 on December 31." Said Sable and Shiva?s eyes widened.
"They're mum died on New Years Eve?" Said Shiva
"Hmm." Said Sable "But they have come to terms with it. They celebrate their birthday and they honor they're mother?s life and thank her for bringing them into this world."
"But do you ever wonder about them, mentally?" Shiva asked
"Oh yes of course." Said Sable "I?ll be damned if they become cold and depressed like their father. I think what my brother needs right now is for someone to come and warm up that cold tortured heart of his."
Shiva didn't say anything but she was thinking about being that someone.
Harry found an odd creature called a Farris, which was a cross between a fairy and a dragonfly. His next task was to buy it.
Harry went down to search for Remus and he found him driking a smoking goblet. His face was screwed up and it looked like the substance was not very tasty.
"Er Remus?"
"Ah Hello Harry." Said Remus smiling as he put the Goblet down.
"What is that?" Harry said pointing to the Goblet.
"Wolfsbane Potion." Said Remus
"You still take that stuff?" harry asked amazed.
"I still have to." Said Remus
"Snape isn't here is he?" Harry asked suddenly and Remus smiled.
"No Harry Professor Snape isn't here. Tonks makes it for me." Said Remus "Is there something you wanted?"
"Oh yes I was wondering how I could hold of a Farris." Said Harry "I wanted to get one for Luna?s birthday."
"Hmm." Said Remus "I don't know maybe you should ask Tonks."
"Ask Tonks what?" said Tonks who appeared in the room.
"I found a pet for Luna." Said Harry to her "A Farris but I don?t know how to get one."
"No problem." Said Tonks and she took out her wand. "Apracticus tatikus Farris." A jet a pink light erupted from Tonks wand and in mid air a ball of light appeared. It grew bigger and 6 wings sprung out of it, than the ball fell to the floor and flapping it's wings to stay aflight, was a pink haired, 6 winged 6 inched little creature."
"Harry this is a Farris." Said Tonks pointing to the creature. "And what's your name?" she asked it.
"Wyndy." Said the Farris in a very squeaky voice.
