Chapter 30

Hermione awoke with a start, and she expected to see Severus, or her two brand new babies. What she saw however put a frown on her face, and a crease in her brow. She was in an empty room, in the faint glow of the morning. Slowly she sat up, winced, and settled back amongst the pillows. A loud noise coming from the sitting room startled her, along with Severus and four teenagers running into her room.

Although nothing shocked her more than realizing her straight laced husband was wearing skin-tight black leather pants, and knee high boots. The pants left nothing to the imagination, and he looked like a sex god. He looked at her with wounded eyes, then rushed to her. She reached up and cupped his face.

"How long have I been out?" She asked.

It was a simple question, and it should have had a simple answer but none could be found. He was at a loss for words. A simple tear ran down his face before she took his lips hungrily in hers.

When she released him he could finally speak, although, it did come out a little strained.

"Uh, about two or three hours, but you missed a lot." He reported with an undignified huff, then claimed her mouth again.

"Get a room!" four voices rung out.

"Who are they?" Hermione brought him back to reality.

"They are our children." with that Hermione promptly dropped her jaw, she really wouldn't have believed him, except for the fact that they looked like a combination of herself and her husband.

She was proud of herself when the only inclination of what she was feeling was a slight stutter, "O-okay, w-who's who?"

One by one they filed up to her, and introduced themselves. Starting with Naiya, and ending with Semele. When Semele finally came up to her Hermione noticed, this was the form The Goddess took the last time she had seen her. The mother in her jumped up when her youngest daughter bent over and her breasts almost spilled out of her top.

"I want an explanation for all of this... after you change into clothes we would not see at a brothel. Understood?" She said with a dangerous smile on her lips. Her children left, and before her husband got a chance she whispered as huskily as she could manage that he would need to keep that outfit.

She wanted to talk, and to allow seating, she wanted it in the living room. So carefully Severus carried her bridal style, and then sat her in his lap on the sofa. She curled up like a child to his chest sensing his distress. All the kids came back into the living room wearing what they had first been seen in that day.

They all sat down, and Pyralus started to speak. "We've come to the conclusion as opposed to trying to explain what happened we should just let her see it. We think it would be best for you to put your memories in a pensieve, and let her see it that way."

"I think thats best." agreed Severus. Severus summoned a house elf to get the supplies. Then told Cairo how to set them up, not really willing to let her go. When that was all set up he told Cairo to place the pensieve on the coffee table. With that he sat up and twisted Hermione so she was looking at the bowl. He pointed his wand at is head, and soon blue light was stringing from his temple into his wand. He drug the strand into the pensieve, then nudged Hermione to urge her on.

She slumped forward with a dazed expression as soon as she touched the swirling liquid.

All present company watched her as she went through Severus' swirling emotions. Then as she came back to them with a sputter. "I was dead?" At her husbands sad nod she swallowed then continued. "And I missed my children growing up?" He nodded again.

Semele cut it, "I have enough power to send two of us back to being babies, but only for a small amount of time, before the goddess' power leaves me. She has given me permission to do it, for all of your trouble. She says that it's not fair to carry a child for nine months, give birth, then have it at the point of not needing you the next day. I can only do two so you must choose."

"Who wouldn't mind being an infant again?"

Cairo and Naiya looked at each other, then raised their hands. "So be it." Hermione agreeing with the choices.

"Dad. I need to use your potions equipment."

"Alright." he said with a hand gesture, he started nuzzling his wife's neck.

"Is there anything you two want to tell us about your childhood?" Hermione said, turning towards the two children.

"Nothing except you definitely named us right. We have the elemental power our name represents, when we were underage, without wands, that's what popped up the most. Pyro was quite dangerous."

"I bet." Hermione mused.

Semele came into the room looking worn out and carrying two vials. "All I have to do is prick your finger, then you two have to drink it."

Naiya and Cairo nodded. Then Semele walked over to both of them. First she pricked Cairo's finger then Naiya's, and as if it was choreographed they lifted the vial up to their lips and downed the contents at the same time.

They both fainted at the same time. Semele caught Naiya, and Pyralis was close enough to catch Cairo before he hit the floor. The room filled up with a sickly sweet with smoke, then cleared leaving two screaming babies in their siblings hands.

"Well, I guess it's legit."

"Obviously." Snape drawled.

"Ohmygod! My parents!" Hermione exclaimed

"Yes I believe everyone we had here earlier, must pay a visit now." He snapped, and a house elf appeared, "Contact the Weasley's, the Granger's, the headmaster, Miss McGonagal, and the Potter's, please request their presence in the Snape quarters as soon as possible."

The house elf nodded, the disappeared with a loud crack.
