The end draws near.
The Saxton triplets trusted the Weasley twins enough to tell that that they were at the school searching for the stolen stone, but left Harry and Matilda out of it, pretending instead that their uncle was friends with Flamel and that he told them to get the stone. The Weasley twins revealed that they too had a Marauder's map and promised to help the sisters in their search. The Weasley twins had also come up with their Marauder names, Fred called himself Chaos and George called himself Anarchy.
Fred and George also revealed that they felt and unexplainable hate for Quirrell, so the sisters decided that whatever was wrong with Quirrell had to be something that Fae naturally hated.
Their investigation was put on a short hold come Halloween.
The Saxton triplets were in their charms lesson, the only one of the three not pretending to listen was Aria, since the didn't have the practice that her sister had. The class was currently learning the levitation spell. The sisters watched as Ron looked stupid as he did the wrong wand movements and pronunciation for the spell. They then watched as a girl named Hermione Granger correct him and show off how good she was at casting spells casting the spell correctly. After class the triplets heard Ron insult Hermione, unfortunately so did Hermione herself and ran off crying. When Ron tried to laugh about it the triplets tripped him up.
"Next time, don't insult someone and then laugh about it when we're around." Vida told him before they walked off.
Throughout the rest of the day the triplets didn't see Hermione and heard she was still crying in the girl's toilets. So after lessons finished they quickly told Harry and Matilda that they were going to try and get Hermione out of the toilets before going to dinner.
The triplets went to the girl's toilets and stopped outside the stall they heard crying come from.
"Granger, you alright in there?" Vida asked.
"Yeah, who's asking?" came a sad voice.
"My name is Vida Saxton, I'm here with my sisters, Layla and Aria." Vida said.
"What do you want?"
"For you to come out and go to dinner."
"Why should you care?"
"Because we saw Weasley bully you, and we hate bullies." Layla said.
"But, what he said is true, I do have no friends."
"Only because you don't have good social skills." Aria said.
"Aria!" Vida and Layla chastised their sister.
"Look." Vida said. "You're very smart, but you need to know how to show it. I can guess that you feel like you need something to prove since you're in a world you've only just been introduced to, but the way you're showing your knowledge is making you come across as a know-it-all and pompous."
"Show how smart you are in your work, not by repeatedly showing off your skill." Layla told her. "And don't push your views either."
"We can tell you're a good girl and don't mean any harm by what you do." Aria said. "If you tone down on showing off you're knowledge, you're sure to get friends."
The cubical door unlocked to show a red-eyed Hermione.
"You really think I can make friends?" she asked.
The triplets nodded.
While the Saxton triplets were talking to Hermione the Black twins were sitting with the Weasley twins, Neville and Draco at the Ravenclaw table during the Halloween feast.
"Where are the triplets?" Fred asked.
"Your brother upset a girl really badly so she ended up crying in the toilets, the triplets are trying to get her to come to the feast." Harry explained.
"We'll kill him." growled the twins, talking about Ron.
"The triplets already told Ron not to try it again." Matilda said.
Suddenly, Quirrel burst through the doors to the Great hall."
"Troll! Troll in the dungeon!" he screamed. "Just thought you'd like to know." he then fainted forwards.
The children in the hall began to scream in panic until Dumbledore made some fireworks to get their attention and then told them to go to their common rooms.
"But the Slytherin common room and dorms are in the Dungeon!" Matilda shouted out before the children could move.
The Slytherins then shouted out in agreement.
"And we could run into the troll if it left the dungeon!" Matilda added.
All four houses shouted in agreement.
"Fine. All of you shall stay here until we can detain the troll." Dumbledore said before leaving.
Then the group of friends remembered something.
"The girls don't know about the troll." Neville announced.
The Weasley twins had already rushed over to the nearest teacher and explained that four student were in the girl's toilets and didn't know about the troll.
The Saxton triplets and Hermione were already in the process of leaving the girls toilets when Vida's sensitive nose picked up the scent of a troll and she heard heavy footsteps.
"I smell and hear something, I think it's a troll." Vida said.
"What do we do?" Hermione asked quietly as the four backed back into the toilets.
"He'll hear and see us closing the door at this distance." Vida said as the girls spotted the shadow of the troll. "He would just knock the door down."
"Quick, hide behind the door." Layla said. "If it comes in we'll sneak out behind it."
The four girls quickly hid behind the door and stayed quiet. The troll entered through the open door, once he was far enough in the girls snuck out from behind the door and quietly made their way out of the toilets and ran in the direction of the Great hall once they were sure the troll wouldn't hear them running; Aria had to leave behind her crutches because they would make too much noise, but she seemed to manage okay without them. They soon bumped into the teachers.
"Children, thank Merlin you're all alright." said McGonagall."
"There's a troll, in the girl's toilets back there, we only just narrowly escaped it." Hermione gasped.
The four girls were taken to nurse Poppy and given potions for their shock while the teachers dealt with the troll. They explained about what happened and each girl was awarded ten points each for showing initiative and bravery, but Ron ended up losing the points Hermione gained due to insulting a student and nearly leading her and others into an accident because of his actions.
Hermione became friends with the sisters and became part of their group of friends.
It was once again night-time as the Saxton triplets snuck out of the Slytherin common room and into the halls of Hogwarts. They had decided to check Dumbledore's office for the stone, their uncle having managed to set up a meeting Dumbledore had to go to so they could snoop around without running into him.
Under the cloak of darkness cast around the halls, the triplets quietly used Sirius' Marauder's map to take secret passages that would take them to the office without being seen. Once there the map showed them the password for the office and after speaking it the passageway opened and they ascended the stairs up to the office.
Careful not to trip any alarms they looked around the office for them stone but seemed unable to find it.
"Looking for something." asked a voice.
The three sisters tensed before whipping around to face the source of the voice with their wands out. But relaxed when they saw it was the Sorting hat, which they knew wasn't on Dumbledore's side.
"The philosopher's stone, Dumbledore stole it and we have to get it back." Vida told the hat.
"Ahh, yes. I've heard Dumbledore go one about it and his plans involving Mr and Miss Potter." the hat said.
"We already can guess his plans." Aria said. "He wants Harry and Matilda under his control. And the stone is bait for something that will test the twins."
"But do you know who it's bait for?"
"No." the triplets admitted.
"I'll give you a hint. He's already tried to kill Harry once."
The triplets thought for a second. "Voldemort?" they finally said.
"Yes. Now, you are still searching for the stone. I believe muggles have a habit of hiding things behind pictures."
The triplets got the hint and quickly checked behind all the portraits until they came across a safe that Layla just stuck her hand in using her powers and took out a red stone.
"Is it the real thing?" Aria asked.
The triplets used a small circle of magical glass given to them by the Muses and used it to conclude that the stone was real since the stone glowed under it.
"Good." Vida said.
Vida handed Layla a fake stone that was a replica of the real thing and Layla put it back in the safe.
"Goodbye." the triplets told the Sorting hat as they left, picking up all the recording stones that Matilda had planted as they went.
"Good luck." it told them back.
As they were leaving Aria noticed a cloak made of a sort of shimmering material hiding amongst some other cloaks. Unable to resist, she grabbed it and took it with her.
The next day the Saxton triplets and Black twins gathered in the room of requirements. Aria was playing with the cloak that she had stolen, which turned out to be an invisibility cloak.
"Great, we finally have the stone, now we can leave." Harry said.
"I can't help but feel sad about leaving though. We'll be leaving behind the friends we made here." Matilda said.
"Unless we want to put up with Dumbledore's manipulations for the rest our education we have to leave." Layla said. "the most we can do is tell them about Muse academy and hope that they decide to join us. Other wise we'll have to put up with only seeing them during the holidays and talking to them through letters."
"I suppose." the twins sighed.
Matilda looked over to Vida, who looked deep in thought.
"What's wrong Vida?" Matilda asked.
"The Sorting hat said the stone was bait for Voldemort, that means Voldemort would be trying to infiltrate the school somehow." Vida explained.
"I remember you saying that the slayers almost entered the war, once, before Harry killed Voldemort." Matilda said.
"Yeah. The Slayers didn't enter the war because it didn't involve Demons and neither side was directly attacking us. But many were convinced that Voldemort was becoming a Demon, if he was then that meant that Slayers could enter the war. The Slayer council had only just decided that Voldemort was a Demon when news came of his defeat." Vida said.
"But the horcrux we found and the fact that Dumbledore doesn't believe him dead suggests he isn't dead yet." Aria said.
"So, since he's a demon, that means you can slay him, right?" Harry asked.
"Unfortunately, no." Vida said. "We're not full Slayers. We can only slay if the Demon is going to kill us. But that doesn't stop us calling in real Slayers to deal with Voldemort, if he is here."
The triplets then suddenly straitened up.
"You don't think?" Vida asked her sisters.
"What?" the twins asked.
"It's Quirrel." Vida said. "Think about it. We, Fae, hate him for no reason, the same way we reacted around that horcrux."
"But how would he spark that reaction? He's obviously not Voldemort." Harry asked.
"We don't know, but we intend to find out." Layla said.
"And you and the Weasley twins are going to help." Aria said.
That dinner time as Quirrel made his way to the head table he suddenly found himself upside down, strung from his leg by an invisible rope coming from the ceiling. As he struggled he didn't notice his turban coming undone until it fell to the floor, what lay under the turban remained hidden by his robes but that ended when the invisible rope disappeared and his head became visible as he stood up. People gasped in horror and shock, many even fainted. On the back of Quirrel's head was the grotesque face of Voldemort.
The Saxton triplets' hate multiplied tenfold and it was only Harry and Matilda's hands on them that stopped them from blowing their cover in an attempt to slay Voldemort.
Voldemort suddenly turned to smoke and exited Quirrel's body and flew out the door, Quirrel fell to the floor dead since his body couldn't take the strain of Voldemort not being there.
