Chapter 3: A Family Reunion
At 9am sharp, after another apparation ride, and they were standing in front of a magnificent manor, "Welcome, to Snape Manor" Hermione still had some doubts, she cannot call her least favorite professor…dad. It just didn't seem right, this life certainly needed some getting used to. Entering through the front gates, she was met by a sight that caused her to do an excellent imitation of a fish on a hook. A beautiful garden and a fountain were in front of the tremendous manor, that was painted all black, after all, it IS Snape Manor, and reputation speaks for itself.
She followed Snape in, but couldn't see anything, because quite instantaneously, two people lunged straight at her, almost knocking her off her feet. When they let go of her because of the gagging noises she was making due to lack of oxygen, she noticed they were twins. "Ahem, Hermione, these are your brothers, Arsenio and Malik Snape." he introduced. "Too formal father, I think she already knows the last name, yeah Malik", one of them said, probably Arsenio. "I second that little bro," teased um…was it Malik? "I am not your little bro", pouted Arsenio. "Technically speaking, I am older than you", replied Malik smartly. Arsenio mumbled, "By one minute, I bet my mind is bigger than yours".
The two looked at each other with identical smirks. Hermione previously was too amused by the twins' antics, that she didn't notice all the similarities, they reminded her of Fred and George. They both had identical black, wavy hair that was just a tad long. The only difference was their eyes, Arsenio had black eyes, like his father's, and Malik had blue eyes like Hermione's. A second later they were circling her and Malik said, "Blimey father, out of the four of us, no one got your nose." They both burst into laughter. Hermione stole a glance at Snape, but instead of the usual sneer, he was smirking…almost playfully. "That is because I did not lift the charm yet" He flicked his wand and she transformed again. "Aah now I see the family resemblance, but still no Snape nose" They burst out laughing again. She expected some form of punishment for the boys, and pitied them but instead Snape said, "Well, watch out, because from this day forward, you might wake up one day without a nose" A rush of footsteps sounded through the house, "Hermione, did she come? Where is she? Oh, there you are, I missed you so much" Her sister, Ara, hugged her and held on for a while until Snape said, "Okay children, show Hermione to her room, and give her a tour of the manor, I am sure she would like that."
When they opened the door to the room labeled 'Hermione', she could have sworn she heard her mouth slam to the floor. .amazing. A king-sized, mahogany wood bed, with a blue and white duvet. A wardrobe ten-times bigger than the one at Hogwarts. Also there was a library made of two sections 'Muggle' and 'Magical' books. "Do you like it?" one of the twins asked, and judging by his black eyes he was definitely Arsenio. "Yeah", that was the first thing Hermione said since she entered the Manor, true to their word, her siblings showed her around the house, and she kept close so that she doesn't get lost, the manor was so big, it was easy to lose your way. They settled in the family room, and talked about random things, for example, that her brothers go to Durmstrang, and Ara goes to Beaxbatons. Their father came and told them that they should probably go to bed, but they continued their chat anyway, "Didn't I come half an hour earlier and said that you should be off to bed" Hermione made to get up, but Malik stopped her, "But father, why should we listen to you?" "Maybe because I am your father" "That does not sound like a good enough reason to me, besides, there is a lot of catching up to do" And so, Snape had to abide by his son's requests, but two hours later, even after Malik's protests, they were all sent to bed.
