I'm very sorry for not posting as often as I should. I first started this story shortly after reading the 5th book but now that the six book is out. I see no point in continuing this fanfic.
However, I will post the remainder of what I have written over the next few weeks and then I'll decide whether or not I will continue it. If anyone would like to adopt this fic, please tell me.
I'm still writing more and I will continue to write more until I no longer have the time to write at all. If no one decides to adopt it, I will write and post the entire plot including the ending.
End Note
"Okay now time for cake and then we play." Said Luna
Harry turned to Ron and Hermione who were sitting next to each other and Ron was whispering something in her ear.
"What's that's about?" Harry asked Ginny
"They haven't told you yet?" Ginny asked
"Told me what?" said Harry
"Ron and Hermione are going out." Said Ginny
"What sense when?" Harry asked both stunned and sad that Ron hadn't told him.
"I'm not sure." Said Ginny
"Hi Ginny." Said a girl
"Oh hi Gabriel." Said Ginny "See you Harry."
Ginny left with the girl and Harry sat down and watched Ron and Hermione. 'Why didn't Ron or Hermione say anything to him about it?' he asked himself.
"Maybe they thought you'd only be jealous." said a voice behind him. Harry turned and saw Luna and Wyndy flapping her wings behind her.
"Why would I be jealous?" Harry asked not even daring to ask how Luna was able to read his mind. "I don't like Hermione in that way?"
"No, but you have no one, no one for yourself I mean." Said Luna "
"You are a very lonely fellow Lightning." Said Wyndy sadly and she flew away.
Harry stood up and walked into the backroom. Sitting on the sofa watching Which Witch is Which were twin girls both with extremely long black hair that was red at the tips. One of them was very pale, wore all black and had on silver and black jewelry. The other was not so pale, wore purple and black and normal jewelry. She looked a bit nicer than the other but if they were dressed the same; there would be no way to tear them apart.
"Sorry I didn't know anyone was in here." Said Harry
"No problem." Said the girl dressed in purple "You're Harry Potter right?"
"Yeah." Said Harry and the other girl turned to look at him. Harry was almost dazzled by the silverness of her eyes.
"I'm Alana and this is my sister Sile." Said Alana
"Are you relatives of Luna, I've never seen you at Hogwarts?" Harry asked
"We don't go to Hogwarts yet." Said Alana
"And we're not blood related to Luna." Said Síle
"I don't understand?" Harry asked
"Our father persuaded us to come with a gift." said Síle "A picture of our mother and her family. Luna Lovegood's mother was our mother's step sister."
"Which makes you Luna's cousins by marriage." Said Harry and Alana nodded.
"Then why are you back here?" Harry asked
"Why are you?" Sile countered.
"Good question." Said Harry
"Why don't you sit down and watch tv with us." Said Alana
"Sure." Said Harry and he sat down next to her.
"You two look too old to be just starting Hogwarts." Harry stated.
"That's because we attended a private magic school sense we were 6." Said Alana "We stayed with our aunt at the time."
"Now our father wanted us with him at Hogwarts." Said Sile
"Your father works at Hogwarts?" Harry asked eager to know who
"Yes, maybe you know him. His name is Pro. Severus Snape." Said Alana and Harry's mouth dropped.
"What?" he said "You're Snape's daughters, the twins." Said Harry and Alana nodded.
"I take it you know him." Said Sile
"More than I'd like to." Said Harry "Sorry, I meant no offense."
"None taken." Said Sile
"Do you not like our father?" Alana asked
"It's not that I don't like him, it's he who doesn't like me. He goes out of his way to make me feel miserable." Said Harry
"Does he now?" Sile asked "Our aunt Sable always told us that our father was never the nicest man."
"Understatement." Said Harry and Sile smiled, Alana however looked affronted.
"Sile, I think it not prudent to insult our father in front of one of his students." Said Alana glaring at Sile.
"And I don't care what you think Ali." Said Sile standing up "Come Harry, I'm thirsty, can you direct to the drinks?"
"Sure." Said Harry standing up and he walked out of the room with Sile. Before stepping out of the room he took one last glance at Alana who was shooting daggers at him. She looked like a female Snape which made Harry shudder.
Harry led her to the drinks and she said "Thanks." Just then Ron and Hermione came over to them.
"Hey Harry, who's your friend?" Ron asked as he stared at Sile and Hermione nudged him in the gut.
"Oh this is Sile, she's Luna's cousin." Said Harry
"Bye marriage." Said Sile
"She's also Snape's daughter." Said Harry and he grinned as Ron's mouth hang open.
"Why does everyone keep doing that?" Sile asked
"You have to understand you being Snape's daughter is a shock to anyone who hears it." Said harry "And trust me, you will be getting it a lot once you get to Hogwarts."
"Definitely." Said Ron
"What year are you?" Hermione asked
"I'll be an entering 6th year." Said Sile "Along with my twin sister Alana."
"You're a twin?" said Ron grinning and Hermione nudged him again.
"Oh I forgot to introduce you." Said Harry "Sile, these are my best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger."
"Hi." Said Hermione
"Charmed.' Said Sile
"Where's your sister?' Ron asked
"In the back room." Said Sile
"Oh I see you've met my cousin Sile Snape." Said Luna coming towards them.
"Yeah." Said Harry
"Well its almost time to play the games so get ready." Said Luna smiling and she walked off.
"I am so glad there is no blood between us." Muttered Sile and Harry and Ron laughed.
"So what do you think about my father?" Sile asked Ron who went slightly pink.
"Well I think he is er, he's er…"
"If you think he's mean greasy haired git you can say it, I won't get offended." Said Sile and Ron and Hermione stared at her amazed.
"I get the feeling you don't like your father very much." Harry stated.
"I used to love and ador my father." said Sile
"What happened?" Harry asked
"He wasn't around." said Sile "I used to see him every summer but about 6 years ago he started to just send letters and stuff and then he stopped coming and writing as often as he used to. Until just a few days ago, I hadn't seen my father for 5 years. I stopped hoping he would write or come 4 years ago and 3 years ago, I starrted to leave all the gifts he sends un opened. I just stopped believing in him. If my father cared about me even a little he would not have gaven me and my sister up when we were just babies."
"What about your mother?" asked Hermione
"She died right after we were born." said Sile emotionless. Sile then looked at their sad faces then said "i don't want you to feel sorry for me. I don't need your pity. I stopped feeling sorry for myself years ago."
"I understand you completely." said Harry "Everyone always says, I'm sorry for your loss and what you're going through but they don't understand that saying sorry doesn't help at all. I don't like being pitied nor do I like being treated like hopeless child."
"We say sorry because we want to help you feel better." said Hermione
"But that's just it." said Harry "it makes me feel worse. Because at first it was just me feeling bad and then it's you and Ron and everyone and then I feel even worse."
"It's best to just say nothing at all until the person it ready to talk about it without crying or feeling bad. I can now speak about my mother's death freely because I realize that feeling sorry for myself and crying is only going to make me depressed and feel lonely and I don't want that." said Sile "Crying is okay at first because you're letting the pain go but theres a time when crying no longer helps, it just makes things worse."
"And then people start to think you need counseling." said Luna who appeared next to Harry. "It's good to talk to someone about it, but I'd rather talk to someone who both cares and understand, not someone who is paid to care."
"yeah." said Harry
"We're like three peas in a pod." said Sile and everyone looked at her. "All three of us have lost our mothers before we got a chance to know them."
