Irvette was about to puke from all the screaming. This was really the first time she has traveled by a portkey, and she really did not want to do that again. It was a really frightening experience.

Irvette brushed herself and took her brother's outstretched arm and pulled herself up. Zelos brushed aside a strand of hair that was in Irvette's face and tucked it behind her ears.

"A new beginning, at Hogwarts huh." Irvette said, starting at awe at the magnificent looking castle.

Zelos looked at his sister. Her face looked tired from all the happenings in the past few days. He only prayed and hope that this new beginning would be a much better one that the previous one.

"Yeah. We'll make it won't we?" Zelos said.

"Yeah, we will." Irvette answered as she turned to her brother and hugged him tight. "We will make it through."

"I will protect you Ircky, with all that I have." Zelos said, hugging his sister and mentally vowing to never let her suffer so much anymore.

"Just stay safe for me alright? I don't want to lose you too." Irvette said.

"You just stay out of harm's way, and so will I." Zelos said, kissing Irvette on the forehead.

"Ready?" Zelos asked, putting his hand forward for Irvette to hold.

"Yeah." Irvette said, taking her brother's hand and they both of them proceeded up the stairs that they saw and up into a large corridor.

"Erm. Zecky? Any idea where are we supposed to head to?" Irvette asked, looking at the corridors that never seem to end.

"N-not really." Zelos answered, smiling sheepishly.

"Let's go here." Irvette said, pointing to their left.

"Sure." Zelos said, though unsure.

The both of them wandered for some time before they were found by a stern looking teacher who introduced herself as professor McGonagall. She sure was stiff. They were led to a room where their belongings were deposited, and then professor McGonagall walked them down a few spiraling staircases, and up and left and right, and finally, they stopped in front of a gargoyle statue.

"Cheesecake drops." she said. The statue turns and a staircase appears before them ,and the twins step up onto the first step gingerly after her, occasionally looking at each other with confused looks.

"Ahh. Professor McGonagall. I see you found our two lost sheep. Hello. I am professor Dumbledore, head master of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry.." the man said.

Albus Dumbledore was exactly the way Irvette imagined him to be. Old, wrinkly, and very kind. He has explained everything they needed to know by the end of their conversation and they were sent off to rest in a temporary room set up for them for the 3 days before all the other students arrive here at Hogwarts. Sorting will take place then, and then their uniform badges will be changed accordingly. Irvette was excited. For the next day, she found that she had nothing to do. She woke up in the morning and both herself and Zelos went to the great hall for breakfast with the teachers. It was really awkward, but the food was really good, and Irvette felt very much well-fed that day. She spent the remaining of the morning in her room with Zelos, reading her book while Zelos rested and fussed about to make sure that she was comfortable since her pillows hadn't arrived yet. By the evening, Irvette had finished reading about the history of Hogwarts, and she and Zelos discovered a map of Hogwarts in the library, and took the time to memorize the map, now both of them were sure that they were not going to get lost anytime soon. Irvette had also gone through her charms book and halfway through her potions book. Zelos was reading a book on dragons that he found in their library. The both of them went for dinner only when a house elf that was sent by Dumbledore appeared and told them that dinner was ready.

After a wonderful meal , Irvette and Zelos headed up to their room and continued with their own reading. By night fall, both of their eyes were weary, but Irvette refused to put down her defense against the dark arts text book, so she ended up falling asleep on the couch, and Zelos had to carry her back to her room. Zelos had then spend the night in her room, falling asleep on the floor since he was watching her to make sure she will be alright. But the rhythm of her breathing was slowly putting him to sleep, and so, he fell asleep in a really awkward position. By the morning when he woke, he realized that he has got a stiff neck.

Irvette had only laughed it off, and proceeded to massage him to make him feel better. It did, and the day was spent with eating and more reading. By the end of the day, Irvette had gotten through most of her textbooks, and was excited for the day after tomorrow.

"I am too tired to be excited. Good night princess." Zelos said, kissing Irvette on the forehead before going to his room to sleep.

"Goodnight Zecky. Sleep tight. I hope you don't get another stiff neck." Irvette said, smiling as she went to her own room.

The next day was a good morning to wake up to. Irvette had received her pillows first thing in the morning, which reminded her that her butler had handed her a letter before they left. She found it and read it. By the end of the letter, she was tearing and she realized how much she missed her late family, and her house helpers. Zelos has woken up and went to look for her, and found her crying into her arms as she curled herself in a fetus position against the headboard.

"Hush little baby don't you cry everything's gonna be alright." Zelos sang, holding her with one arm, and stroking her head gently as her rocked her to calm her.

"Daddy's not going to buy me a mocking bird." Irvette said sadly.

"He would, but why buy a mocking bird when you can have an owl instead?" Zelos asked.

The twins ended up asking for permission to leave school grounds to buy a pet, and they both came back contented with their own pet. Both owls, one black and one white. Irvette had gotten the white one, who's eyes resembled her own and her twin brother's.

During dinner that night, they finally met up with Darius, their eldest brother, when he reached Hogwarts. There was much discussion over the dinner table as he told the twins about the remaining will and many more.
They were escorted back to their rooms by Darius, and the three siblings fell asleep on the same bed. They were talking about their lives when Irvette had stopped replying. The two guys had considered getting up and going to their own rooms, but they ended up talking for a while longer, and soon, both of them were sleeping too.
