First off sorry about leaving out a few details in the last chapter, and so you know I did replace it by adding a few things in so that's taken care of. Anyway this chapter's picking up where the last one stopped and continues on after the war's ended. There's a little fluff between Pan and Harry but not much since they won't go out until sometime later in the fic.

Enjoy! Oh and I have decided to pair Ron up with Lavender but I'm changing around the idea because she was bit by Greyback in the book so I'm letting her end up like Bill.

"Molly what're you trying to do?" Remus stood next to Harry as they guarded the twins. All the Weasleys came beside her except Ron.

"Harry move aside." She aimed at Ivan.

"No…why are you attacking them?"

"Harry they're death eaters, move away."

"They're not death eaters didn't you just see what they did?" Tonks shouted.

"Mrs. Weasley I advise you to lower your wand, if you attack them you'll be attacking two innocent people in the eyes of the law." Molly looked at Kingsley like he was stupid or something.

"Innocent?" she about screamed and Kingsley turned to Harry.

"Mr. Potter I think you should take the twins and the Malfoys away from here, we'll take care of Bellatrix's body." Harry nodded and they followed him out of the Great Hall ignoring the many glares and stares from the others. Ron and Hermione came along with them and Luna and Dean; they hid away up to the Gryffindor common room locking the door carefully. Pan sat down near the fireplace rocking Gabriel and Ivan joined in.

"He's so cute…" Ivan let Gabriel's tiny hands grip his fingers as he began to look around.

"I'm sorry about my mum guys, I don't know why she tried to attack." Ron.

"It's ok Ron."

"No it's not, she shouldn't have done that to you."

"Ron relax we'll handle it later; now Pan, Ivan where are you two going to stay after this?" Pan and Ivan looked at each other.

"We don't know, we haven't been able to sort this out…Ivan do you want to…?"

"Sure."

"Then where're you going to stay until this is done?" Hermione.

"We can't stay here that's for sure." Ivan said as Pan passed Gabriel to him. Harry looked over at Narcissa and she shook her head.

"With the Ministry on us right now it wouldn't be a good idea, and Lestrange Manor's gone." Now Harry was getting worried, the twins had no money and no place to stay, even the Tonks residence would be overcrowded with the Lupins and their new baby.

"What about Grimmauld Place?" all eyes diverted to Ron.

"Ron I don't know about that…" Hermione started but Ron shushed her.

"It's all I can think of, it's in Harry's name, just needs a good bit of cleaning done."

"What about Walburga's portrait? If she sees Pan and Ivan are on our side she'll scream to the top of her lungs. That won't be good for Gabriel."

"I can fix that." Narcissa said. "I can talk around her, and I can silence her if I have to."

"That's one thing settled." Harry scratched his chin. "Kreacher's a bit old though, he'll need some help. Kreacher!" in a small pop Kreacher appeared in the middle of the room.

"Kreacher has come at request of Master Harry Potter." The elf bowed to Harry, and to the Malfoys.

"Master?" Draco.

"Sirius left Grimmauld Place and Kreacher to me. Kreacher I want you to find Dobby and bring him here, he should probably be at the Tonks home." Kreacher bowed and disappeared again.

"Who was that?" Ivan.

"Kreacher, he's been serving the Black family for generations it's amazing he's still alive." Narcissa answered looking directly at baby Gabriel.

"Would you like to hold him Aunt Cissa?" Pan asked and Ivan carefully let Narcissa take the baby into her arms. Gabriel began to coo at her, and she put on her motherly charm; Lucius only watched with a smile and then another pop was heard with Dobby and Kreacher in the middle of the room.

"As requested, Kreacher has returned with house elf Dobby."

"Dobby has come, and Dobby knows Harry Potter sir has a request of Dobby."

"Yes, Dobby I want you and Kreacher to go back to Grimmauld place and clean it spotless. Can you do that?"

"Dobby can help Kreacher, but Dobby wonders why since Harry Potter has already proclaimed Grimmauld Place unfit to live?" Harry motioned over to Pan and Ivan.

"Kreacher, I'd like you to meet Pan and Ivan Lestrange, Bellatrix's children. And that there is Gabriel Lestrange, her grandson." Kreacher's eyes widened and he went into an instant bow on the floor at their feet.

"Kreacher…is honored to meet the children of Mistress Bellatrix." Pan's eyebrows rose at the elf and Harry gave her a reassuring look.

"I-It's a pleasure to meet you too Kreacher." They stuttered together.

"Kreacher shall make Grimmauld place spotless and clean with Dobby."

"And I want you to make it appropriate for a baby, set up a nursery or something for him. Then come back when you're finished." Kreacher bowed again.

"As Harry Potter wishes." Dobby bowed with Kreacher, and then they vanished with a pop. Harry turned back to the twins and smiled.

"You can stick around with me if you want. I can make sure no one says anything about or to you."

"Thanks Harry." They said together. Draco walked over and held out his hand to Harry.

"I never got a chance…to thank you for saving me…" Harry gently pushed his hand down making Draco look aghast for a quick second.

"Save it for later, when it's necessary Malfoy." Harry sounded kind of cold but Draco backed down anyway. Soon a knock came at the door.

"Harry?" came the voice of Ginny Weasley. "Can I come in?" Hermione walked over to the door and looked at Harry before he nodded. The minute the door opened Ginny came running in and nearly fell back as she saw the Malfoys and the twins.

"Ginny…"

"What're they doing in here?" she scorned as she spoke.

"I invited them in here, as guests." Ginny turned to Harry.

"Oh really? When will they be going?"

"When I say they can leave. Which should be soon…"

"How soon? Everyone's wanting to see you, Mum and Dad want to take you with us so you can relax and rest before the reporters want a word with you." Harry just shook his head.

"I'll be fine, I'm going to help Pan and Ivan get settled in somewhere."

"And why can't they just go with the Malfoys?"

"Because our home's not appropriate at the moment for the baby." Narcissa said softly since Gabriel was about to go back to sleep. Ginny looked at Gabriel and then back to Harry.

"I see…I'll wait then." She turned and walked out without another word.

"Fun isn't she?" Ron and the others laughed.

"I'm sorry about her, she is Molly's daughter." Harry.

"Its fine, I'm actually not afraid of her." Pan giggled after taking Gabriel from Narcissa.

"Me either." Soon another loud pop was heard and there stood Dobby.

"Dobby and Kreacher have finished cleaning Grimmauld Place." Harry's eyes widened a bit.

"That was fast."

"Well Dobby had learned a few cleaning tips from Ms. Andromeda, so Dobby was able to help Kreacher clean much quicker than before. Kreacher is now finishing the nursery for young Gabriel, even found some of Master Regulus and Sirius' old toys, spell free of course." Everyone exchanged looks.

"Thank you Dobby, now I want you to wait back at Grimmauld Place until we can get the twins there. Can you make sure it's clean enough?"

"Yes Harry Potter."

"Well done…I'll see you later." Dobby disappeared again, and then another knock came at the door. "Who is it?"

"It's Kingsley with Remus and Tonks." Hermione let them in. "How is everyone here?"

"We're fine. Is something wrong?" Kingsley just smiled.

"I've been made Minister of Magic, temporarily of course but yes.." everyone clapped.

"That's great congrats Kingsley." Ron held onto Hermione as congrats came all around.

"Just out of curiosity Kingsley, what's going to happen to the Malfoys? And the twins?" Harry asked and Kingsley's smile faltered a bit.

"Well for one thing the Malfoys seem to be in league with Pan and Ivan, but we need proof to back that up." Harry thought for a second and then remembered what happened in the forest.

"They turned against Voldemort at the last minute."

"How so?"

"Narcissa knew I was alive when Voldemort told her to check and make sure I was dead, then she asked me if Draco was alive and I said yes and then she told him I was dead."

"Did they participate in the battle?"

"No not at all, just ran all over the place looking for Draco. Ron and Hermione saw them too…"

"It's true." Hermione. The Malfoys looked at her like she'd been hit by lightning or something.

"Ron?"

"All I saw them do was run yelling 'DRACO!' 'DRACO!'." Everyone winced at Ron's loud voice.

"You didn't need to shout. If that's the case then it means the Malfoys don't have to go to Azkaban, but they will have a trial in front of the Wizenagamot."

"A trial to make sure they're no longer into the Dark side at least." Tonks pointed out and Harry looked at the Malfoys where they nodded in agreement.

"Sounds fair enough, and what about Pan and Ivan?"

"They'll have to appear to tell their statements, but no Azkaban or probation of sorts. Plus I'm sure they'd like it if you spoke on their behalf Harry, Ron, and Hermione."

"Gladly." Ron.

"Why wouldn't we after all they've done?" Hermione.

"I'll speak too, it's the least I can do." Pan smiled at him and he noticed the blush in her cheeks; it made her look angelic almost. As he noticed her bouncing Gabriel he almost felt a strong pull to her, but it went away as someone tapped his shoulder.

"Harry, if you want you can always stick around with us at Mum's." Tonks said holding onto Remus. "I'm sure you'd love to get to know your godson soon enough." Harry's eyes widened, how the heck did he forget about Teddy?

"Oh sure…but when can we leave everyone's downstairs trying to see me?" Kingsley smirked again.

"I've already talked to McGonagall, we can floo out in the headmaster's office." Harry then remembered the elder wand.

"Hold on a minute Kingsley, when we go up there could you wait outside the office? I'd like a chat with Dumbledore alone first." Kingsley nodded.

"Put the cloak on if you wish."

"No need. You all coming?" everyone nodded following him out of the common room. As they made their way down the staircase Harry managed to evade all raging fans and supporters away as they made it for the gargoyle. The stone beast bowed letting them all pass through swiftly up the staircase; Harry went directly into the office where all Headmasters cheered at him, especially Dumbledore.

"Harry my boy, you've done well." Harry smiled.

"Thank you professor; I can't believe it's ended so quickly…to me at least." Dumbledore gave a hearty laugh.

"It seems as if time has flown by Harry, now what're you doing with that?" he looked at the wand in Harry's hand.

"I…I know that I'm its master now, but I don't want it." Dumbledore's blue eyes widened a bit but softened soon after. "I'm using it once, and then I'm returning it to its original master."

"Of course Harry, whatever you think is best." Harry then pulled out the two broken pieces of his own wand, from Nagini's attack in Godric's hollow, lay them on the desk in front of him, and pointed the elder wand at the middle.

"Reparo." With a slight crack and pop the holly wand was whole again. Harry picked it up and sparks flew out the tip.

"Your wand is whole again Harry. Now tell me, what do you plan on doing?" Harry knew what he meant and thought for a minute.

"I guess I'll take a break for now, and then I'll see if I can try and finish up a year here." Dumbledore laughed again. "What's so funny?"

"My dear boy, you won't have to finish a year if you don't wish it. After the job you've done today, I suppose Kingsley will allow all who fought bravely in this battle become Aurors in no time. You may need the proper training of course, but you'll become an Auror no less." Harry's eyes widened a bit, but then again it was a good accomplishment for him and his friends.

"You think so?"

"I know so my boy, now how are the twins?"

"They're fine sir, they'll be staying at Grimmauld Place once it's fully cleaned. I think I'll join them for a while, so I can go back and forth to see my godson and make sure they're alright." Dumbledore looked at him curiously.

"Harry…if I'm not being too personal or anything, is it possible you could have feelings for young Pan?" Harry felt a blush come to his face, but he quickly dismissed it. "I'll take that reaction as a yes. Harry, I know about your relationship with Ginny Weasley; if anything you should try and figure out who you care for more."

"Professor…I don't know if I like Pan that way or not, but every time I look at her…it's like…like I'm walking on air or something." Dumbledore smiled again. "But I care for Ginny too, I…I don't know what to do…"

"Well Harry you have plenty of time to sort this out, meanwhile I'd suggest you take a break. You deserve it after all." Harry smiled at the portrait, and the carefully tucked the elder wand into his jacket until he could put it back in the tomb; after grabbing his own wand he went back to the door and let everyone else in as they made it to the fireplace. They flooed away to Grimmauld Place, and once they all set foot out Harry almost couldn't believe his eyes.

"Kreacher, Dobby!" the two elves appeared from the kitchen. "You made this place spotless…how?"

"Dobby learned from Ms. Andromeda of course. Would everyone like to tour the place?" before anyone could answer Kreacher stepped forward.

"Kreacher has prepared a meal for Harry Potter and his friends, it is ready in the dining hall. Kreacher has prepared fresh potato soup, tea, and sandwiches." Harry looked at everyone.

"You guys up for some food?" Hermione, Ron, Pan, Ivan, the Lupins, and the Malfoys all nodded yes.

"I'll join but I can't stay long. Let's hurry." Everyone then filed into the dining hall where plates and the food were set out.

"Hang on I'll call my mother…she'll bring Teddy." Tonks went back to the fireplace while everyone else took a seat. Pan still held Gabriel in her arms and Dobby soon came back with a fresh bottle of formula.

"Here Ms. Pan, Dobby made sure it was right." Pan took the bottle and placed a droplet on her bare arm.

"Thank you Dobby." Harry watched as Gabriel began to feed from the bottle, slightly gulping and suckling noises made him smile. Everyone ate whilst chatting amongst themselves, and then Andromeda came in with Tonks holding Harry's little godson Teddy.

"Sorry we're late, had to grab a few things." Andromeda sat down next to Pan and began to eat.

"You want him Harry?" Tonks asked and Harry couldn't refuse. She carefully passed Teddy into his arms and right away he started cooing and giggling almost making Harry laugh so hard. "Aww how cute, I should've brought the camera."

"Be time for that later Dora, sit down and eat." Tonks sat next to her husband. The Malfoys ate silently, but they did seem a bit awkward with Andromeda and her family. Harry knew about their past differences, he just hoped they'd act civil around their two newest members.

"So Pan, Ivan…what're you both going to do now that the war's over?" Hermione had to ask, Harry wanted to know as well. Pan looked at her and put Gabriel's bottle down getting ready to burp him, she really was a good mother.

"For now I'm taking care of Gabriel, afterwards I figured I could try and find a job once Diagon Alley's rebuilt."

"Good answer." Said Lucius taking a sip of his drink. "What about you Ivan?"

"I was thinking of trying to find a job at the Ministry, if Kingsley will let me?" he looked over and Kingsley put his cup down.

"You do meet the requirements of an Auror mostly, you did take an O.W.L. and passed when Dumbledore was around, so I think I can help you there." Ivan shook hands with him as Kingsley stood up from his chair. "Now I must be off, I'll come back and check on you and Pan later." Kingsley shook hands with everyone and left through the fireplace.

"Remus, what's say we look around a bit? Let Harry spend some time with Teddy?" Remus wiped his chin and they left to another part of the house. The Malfoys finished their meals, and Narcissa kept her eyes on Andromeda.

"Andy, could I see you for a moment please?" Andromeda gave her a look, but got up and followed her into the kitchen. Lucius and Draco kept their eyes on the twins and Gabriel.

"Burp…" the baby let out a large one and Pan just laughed.

"That's a good boy Gabriel." She said and Ivan laughed with her. Teddy was fast asleep in Harry's arms, and he just smiled at the baby. He could now fulfill the duty his Godfather Sirius never got to do; he almost felt like a proud parent.

"Potter, I've wanted to tell you this for some time…but thank you for looking after Pan when we couldn't. Can't…no, I won't imagine how things would've ended up if I let that monster destroy my cousin's life." Harry looked at Draco and sat up carefully with Teddy.

"I'm just glad it's over. All we can do now is rebuild for the future…I'll become an Auror, and see what goes on from there."

"What about your girlfriend, um…Ginny was it?"

"We're still dating." Malfoy looked back at Pan but she was too busy with Ivan coddling over Gabriel.

"I see." Soon Narcissa came back with Andromeda, and tapped Lucius's shoulder.

"We should go dear, Pan, Ivan?" the twins looked at her.

"Yes auntie?"

"I'll come back tonight to check on you both. Behave yourselves." They shook hands and kissed cheeks before leaving, Draco nodded at Harry and Harry nodded back.

"That went well." Ivan.

"Yeah, just hope it gets better." Harry sat back with Teddy, and began to envision what life awaited him now that he had defeated his arch enemy.

Not too much but it'll do for now. Next one's going to Pan and Ivan, sometime after things have calmed down. I'm also bringing in Bellatrix's will, leaves a little surprise in for later plus it may be a bit shorter than this one.

Keep the reviews coming and I'll get back to it as soon as possible.

Later!
