Last Chapter;

As he sat back down it was Mione that spoke "well..."

Now:

"... What do we do now?" she asked softly of her best friend turned brother, Harry looked over to her and as green eyes met hazel they felt a link they hadn't noticed before snap strongly into place confusing them even more.

Shaking his head making an attempt to ignore the strangeness in the situation Harry started to answer, " I think we should contact this lord Elrond, our grandfather, send him a copy of mums letters and hope he can help us understand better what's going on" stressing the our so Hermione knew he'd accepted her as his twin, Hermione smiled at him and sent him a silent thank you, out loud however she replied " I think that's best", she sat back in her chair and sipped her butter beer, giving her twin a mischievous smile which unnerved him "what? What is it?" he asked her Mione just shook her head " nothing Elerossë nothing just committing this moment to memory... the day the great Boy-Who-Lived came up with a decent idea ALL ON HIS OWN!!!" she cracked up laughing when she'd finished and Harry even smiled a little before standing up, mock bowing to Hermione and offering her his arm "shall we retire my lady we have a letter to write and you are by far the best to do it" he said as he lead his sister up to the rooms they had booked.

Meanwhile in the house of Elrond, the lord of the realm was sat in his office thinking on the same thing his mind kept slipping to for the last 60 years, his youngest daughter Lilith his little flower.

It seemed to him only yesterday she was running around after her older sister Arwen, imitating her or scolding 'Dan' and 'Ro' ... well as best as a six year old could. He smiled as memories assaulted him and couldn't help but worry about her. After all the last time he saw his precious flower was 2 weeks after the twins were born, Elerossë and Erulissë, his first and only grandchildren. He remembered well the day they first arrived in the house of Elrond:

Lilith often called Lilly or sometimes by the animal's plants and trees 'the heart of the forest' no one had figured out why they did that yet. Had arrived in Rivendell with her husband James son of Harold and their newborn twins, every member of the elf community had rejoiced at the gathering held that day and almost everyone got to hold the new elflings Elladan son of Elrond had been frozen stiff and unable to speak as his sister placed his niece and nephew in his and his twins arms, Elrond remembered the look of ' oh no why me? I'll break them' on his sons face with fondness.

But the joy was not to last for that evening Lilly had confessed her family that they were to go into hiding from a dark lord in their world voldymorts or something like that any way, Elrond, Arwen and the twins all begged her to stay on middle earth, that it was safer, more secure, but the small family had returned to earth claiming that it was their home as much as ardar was. At the start Lilith wrote every week but then, on October 31st 1981 earth time he never got another wisp of news from his daughter. He was worried that something had gone wrong and wondered how the elflings were.

He gazed into the fire thinking on all this when all of a sudden he was brought from his thoughts by a brilliant white owl on his desk carrying a letter, stroking the owl he opener the letter and his hope was restored a little as the started to read.

AN:

Again not much changed but I feel it reads better this way
