A/N: Thanks to everyone that has liked the story so far. And remember, if you have something to tell me please review and tell me. Chompekitas.
I have some people telling me they want the story to be slash, others that want me to keep it clean. So I think I'll apply an old Mexican line "al cliente lo que pida" or "give the client what they want". In order to do that may be there will be a clean story and a slash story. It depends, so vote and tell me if you want it clean or slash; by the way, sorry for the delay.

Harry will be from now on Kasha.
CHAPTER 5
That week was as busy as the one before. The difference had been that the planning and put in action of the plan were now for the introduction of the Clan Heir. It would be in a big party in the ballroom. All vampires and servants would be there. They needed to meet the heir, since he was the third in command, after the Clan Elders and his parents.
The vampires needed to meet him, since one day he would be their leader and even if they didn't lick anyone's boots, they knew to have a good image with the heir.
The servants on the other hand now had a new master if you would. If his servant, or family servants, was busy and he needed something they would have to obey the Clan leaders. They were after all more important than their own masters. It seemed strange, but was the way things work within the Clan; most of all, because servants weren't seen as slaves, but as humans, or even friends.
In the introduction ball would be lots of people, clan important friends, from the magical world and the muggle world. It could be stressful for their little heir; since he wasn't a baby he would have to meet them and talked to them. So that's what he had been doing all week with his granddad and Draco. They had been studying names, why they were important, etc.
ISLATOV CLAN
"One more name and I'll be shouting murder Draco!" said Kasha. It was Wednesday and all week they had been studying. He was starting to feel nervous.
"Kash, calm down, we are almost finish. You and I know these names are important, also we know we have to study them at any time, so this one is out when we finish" answered Draco. He knew his friend was getting nervous, but he didn't know how to calm him.
"I know, I'm sorry; it's a lot, I'm hungry and I feel that we need some time out, so lets' go" with that Kasha took Draco's hand and left the library.
On their way they met Vladimir, when he saw them he asked "Hello boys. There is any problem?" Kasha turned to him and hugged the vampire; he was like a second grandfather to him. "Not much Vlad, it's just that we need a break from all the studying" answered Kasha.
Vladimir knew that they would have more moments like this in a near future, been the heir or son of a prominent member of the Clan, tended to give the children such mannerisms. Also, he remembered the times Ivan and himself were like Kasha and Draco, they did the same.
"Don't worry too much. Now tell me, are you hungry?" both boys nodded and Vladimir took both their hands and took them to the kitchen.
Once in the kitchen he prepared them a little snack, it was almost midday and they would need blood soon, when they finished, with some laughter in between courtesy of Vladimir's stories of the past, the 3 left to look for their mothers.
Both women were in the ballroom making some arrangements to the bouquets of roses they had in the room. When they entered both mothers told their sons to go to them.
"How is everything going?" asked Anastasia. She knew what it was like to have to meet all the people her son would meet on Friday night; also that he needed the knowledge of their names and their involvement with the Clan. For her was almost the same, the difference been that she was getting married and he was been introduced.
"Good mom, but one more name and I'll scream. I know I need to learn them, but there is a lot to learn." said Kasha.
Meanwhile Narcissa was with Draco "I hope that everything is going good Dragon. By the way I think you two need to feed" Draco nodded to his mother. With a smile she turned to Anastasia. "Ana, I'll go feed Draco, I'll see you in half an hour" with that they left to Draco's room.
Feeding was very important for vampires, but more important for little vampires as Draco and Kasha. It was common they fell asleep after their feedings and they would need a little nap.
Anastasia nodded to Narcissa and took Kasha's hand. "Dear you need to feed, come let's go to your room" and they left.
Once in their respective child's room both mothers' proceeded to feed them. Between mother or father and their child, the feeding wasn't any sensual or sexual. It actually gave the child calm, a feel of protection and love.
They sit in their beds and the mothers helped their sons to position near their necks. Once in position, they sang to them and felt some pressure in their necks and continued to sing. When both boys got sleepy they closed the wound and cuddled with their mothers. Both smiled to their child and were with them for a little bit until they had to return.
Outside the doors they met. "They are too tired, poor dears" said Narcissa. Anastasia smiled and said "Yes I know, I remember when we had to go through the same in our time. It's very stressful and for two 5 years old is worst"
When they arrived to the ballroom Lord Dimitri was waiting for them. "My dears you fed the children? Good, good. Both of them have been studying so hard. They are doing a good job, so don't worry. Besides, we are learning their names and their mannerisms are coming along really good" with that he left them with a kiss each in their hands and a fanged smile.
"Let me tell you that we will not enjoy when they start their teen years, they will be heartbreakers and with you father-in-law's etiquette and manners lessons it will be worst." said Narcissa with a fond smile.
"Believe me, I know, but one way or another I wouldn't have it any other way. They will be charming and real gentlemen; besides Dimitri is enjoying it with all his heart. He is doing what his heart wants and desires, you know how he can be, and the fact that he can do it with 2 children he loves. He is a proud grandfather, not only for Kasha, but for Draco too. He is like a second grandchild for him right now. One way or another we will enjoy it when the time comes, not as our men, but none the less we will enjoy." said Anastasia with a wide smile. She loved the vampire as a second father, so she let him spoil her child and in their moment Ivan Jr. and Dimitri.
ISLATOV CLAN
Meanwhile, the men were organizing the transportation for their muggle and magical guests. They needed to do it in such a way that the Clan enemies didn't hurt anyone of them or knew about their event. That's why they would give the invitations almost 1 hour before their arrival.
It was good that all of their guests knew how does the Clan liked to do things, especially events of such importance. They may consider Ivan Islatov a bit of eccentric, but he was really appreciated between his friends and partners. He was respected by almost everyone he knew
.
"Vladimir, everything is ready? You have all the invitations you need?" asked Ivan.
The invitations would be deliver in person by his most trusted, been Vladimir, Ishmael, Severus and Lucius. That's why each of them would be in one country to deliver their invitations. A difficult task, but they had the advantage of vampire magic and that was wonderful for this type of things or when they had to leave in haste.
"Yes, I have all the invitations of Japan and Hong Kong" said Vladimir. "Good, good, Ishmael?" said Ivan.
"Of course my Lord, I have the invitations of North America, including the ones of Mexico and Chile" said Ishmael. With that answer Ivan nodded.
"I have the ones of England and Scotland, everything is ready" said Severus.
"And I have everything for France, Italy and Greece." said Lucius.
They had their mission and that involved travelling to such countries to give the invitations. It had been always the same proceedings since Ivan became the leader of the Clan.
All their guests would arrive to the airport in special cars and to a special plane for the trip. Once in Russia the guards would be heavy armed and would be in full alert to take them to the Manor. Not an easy task, because of the different time difference, but not one impossible.
They were aware of the event some days before hand, so the guests were actually ready to leave, then the invitations arrived and they had to leave.
The only Elder that would be present as he would be Dimitri Islatov, the rest of the Elders would be introduced with their second names. Most of them were thought dead, that's why they had to use their second name.
"Everything will go according to plan, don't worry my Lord. We have maximum alert for the guards since Monday. I know you are nervous after all this time, but you have to be calm, if not the little one will be even more nervous." said Vladimir to Ivan.
"I know, it has been 2 long years and I'm getting old my friend." with that all of them laughed. "As if any of us can get too old" said Lucius.
"Why don't you feed him before the ball that way both of you will be calm and your nerves will be at ease" suggested Ishmael.
Ivan thought for a moment and said "You are right, that's a really good idea Ish"
ISLATOV CLAN
Friday evening, 2 hours before the ball.
Before the ball, Kasha and Draco would feed from their fathers, so they needed to have everything ready so they could take a half an hour nap before they had to get ready.
"Raul, I hope everything is ready?" said Kasha to his servant. "Yes Master Kasha, everything is ready, I'll wake you up half an hour later so you can get ready. Madam Anastasia said she will come to help you after your bath" answered Raul.
After Kasha's nod he left and Ivan entered his room. "How are you feeling my son?" asked Ivan, but before he finished his question he had his arms full of a little vampire.
Ivan hugged his son with all his might. He was the proud father of such a wonderful boy, besides they had his mother and sons blessing. Kasha answered his father "I'm good Dad, but I'm really nervous. I just want to make you really proud, Mom and Grandpa too. I know this is a very important event for us as family, but also for the Clan"
Ivan put down his son and said "Don't worry, whatever happens you will make us proud, we are proud of you already. The Clan loves you to death so you don't have to worry about it, ok? Good, now let's get you feeding" with that he sit down in the bed with his son.
While he fed his son, he hummed his mother's lullaby. It was difficult to sing it, since it was in Old Russian, so now he just hummed it. After some time, Kasha healed the wound and cuddled with his father. Ivan was so happy and calm now, he knew everything would be OK.
His family would be with them and their friends. It would be a very long and beautiful night. This was their first event as a family and he was really excited about it.
Ivan saw his son sleep for some minutes and left so he could get ready for the big night.
Half an hour later...
"Kash, dear, wake up. It's time to get ready" said Anastasia to her son, HER SON! She was as excited as Ivan and Kasha, if not more. She knew this event was very important, since most of the people coming had something to do with the Clan; also some of them had children. Those children would be business partners of Kasha in time, as it was with their fathers and Ivan.
"I'm up Mom" said Kasha and kissed his mother in the cheek. "I'll go and take my shower, will you be here?" said Kasha taking his silk underwear.
"Of course, just as last week for your vampire adoption" she answered with a smile. He ran, gave a kiss and a hug to his mother and turned to his bathroom.
He was now a boy that showed his love openly to his dear ones, even if it was only in private. Tonight he would be just polite and a gentleman.
10 minutes later he was in front of his mother. She was looking at the full length mirror in his room. He got dress and turned to his mother with a smile.
Tonight Anastasia would wear a deep purple dress (almost black), without sleeves and a low back. Her long hair was done in a fashionable bun and she had the family jewellery.
Kasha for his part would wear a grey oxford, 3 piece suit with a light purple shirt and a silver tie. For his fortune his hair was just as straight as Ivan's.
Ivan would wear something similar to Kasha, except his suit and tie were black; he would also wear the family cuff links and ring.
Just as the last time Ivan arrived to help his wife with the last details. He gave her a kiss and turned to see his family. A wide smile in his handsome face appeared. He was a proud husband and father.
"Let's go and meet our guests, shall we my dears?" said Ivan to his family. He presented his arm to his wife and hand to his son.
ISLATOV CLAN
Draco for his part was very nervous, for his friend as for himself. He would appear at his side all night, after all the Clan knew they were best friends and now their guests would know.
He was dress in the Malfoy colours, just as his parents. He was wearing a light grey suit, with a deep green silk shirt and a grey tie.
Lucius would be wearing almost the same outfit, expect with the family cuff links, ring and his characteristic snake cane.
Narcissa would be wearing a deep green silk dress with low back and the family jewellery; diamonds earrings of an ornate M and a necklace with the same design with its bracelet and ring.
Draco's parents knocked his door and smiled at the picture he presented in front of his mirror trying to do his tie. Lucius went and did it for him; with a quick hug and a kiss he leaded Draco to his mother. He gave her a hug and a kiss.
Lucius presented his arm to his wife and his hand to his son and they made their way to the ballroom. In the way they found Vladimir and the Snape brothers.
All of them wearing black suits, with black silk shirts, and red ties. Vladimir wore his family cuff links and ring. Ishmael wore his family cuff links and ring been the oldest son. Severus had to put on his glamour, since some people knew him from England.
Together they made their way to the ballroom.
ISLATVO CLAN
The ballroom was decorated in the Clan's colours and the chandeliers lighted the room in a magnificent way. It shined in the black marble floors in an almost hypnotic way.
Everyone was waiting for Ivan Islatov and his family. Almost all of the guests knew of the tragedy of 2 years ago and this invitation was a great surprise to almost every one of them. They considered Ivan a good man, so they were happy for him.
"Lord Ivan Islatov, with his wife Lady Anastasia Marckov Islatov and his son Kasha Islatov" announced the servant in charge of the introductions. Everyone in the room turned to see the small family and was blown away. They were a very gorgeous family, standing tall and proud.
They went down the stairs and the people started to applaud them.
"Good evening my dear friends. I know you've missed our social meetings as we did, but know is a time of celebration. Welcome all to our home and have a very good evening." said Ivan to his guests. With that the guests applaud him again and the party started officially.
Taking his family with him Ivan went to where his father was standing with his advisors. They were very important for the Clan, besides Ivan and Dimitri thought it would be easier to do the introductions first and then they would have the rest of the night to enjoy.
"Good evening Father, madams, gentlemen. I'll like to introduce to you my son and heir Kasha Ivan Islatov" said Ivan once they were in front of his father.
"Good evening my son. Kasha, I want you to meet this fine people. I'll start with ladies, as custom. Alessa Milano, from Italy, Gabrielle Delacour with her husband Francis Delacour from France, Marie Poliesto and her son Kostas Poliesto from Greece. Janette Bortel and her father Theodor Bortel from the United States. Su Ling Chan from Hong Kong"
At each name Ivan and Anastasia gave a nod of their heads, but Kasha did salute the way his grandpa taught him.
"My dear, you are a very beautiful boy and I see someone has taught you their own manners" said Gabrielle to him once he was finished.
"I have to say I'm really surprised, Ivan, Anastasia, you have a wonderful son and I see Lord Dimitri is doing his job his own way as always" said Marie. She had a deep respect for the Elder, since he helped her when her husband died and helped her son to learn how to manage their business.
"Well my ladies, what I can say my grandson Kasha is unique and also learns very fast." said Dimitri with his cheeky smile (without fangs of course).
Next was the turn of the men that came to the party without company, either they were loners, widows or singles.
"Now Kasha, I want to introduce you to Saul Goldsmith from Canada, Zeng Hikari from Japan, Enrique Zarate from Mexico, Luis Alvarez from Chile and John Summers from England and he also represents Scotland" said Ivan this time.
He gave each man a firm handshake.
"You have a firm and good handshake young man, you will be good for the family and the business one day" said Luis.
"Thank you Mr. Alvarez. I just can tell you that I'll do my best" said Kasha. The first part of the pressure was now gone, he just needed to meet some business partners and the most important introductions were done. Then he would have the rest of the night to enjoy himself and other introductions would be done in a friendlier way.
After exchanging some more time with them the little family continued with other formal introductions. After that Kasha went and searched for Draco who was with his parents suffering the same procedure as him.
Once Draco was finished he went with Kasha for a drink.
"How did your introductions go?" asked Draco. Sipping his drink Kasha said "It went all according to plan actually. They seem nice and well they like Dad, Mom and Grandpa very much as far as I could see and feel"
"The same happened to me. It wasn't as bad as we thought actually, don't you think? They also said that it seems your grandpa is giving me some of his fine manners lessons" said Draco. With that both started to laugh.
"I see the introductions are out of the way? Good, now we have to ask you a little favour. We haven't have fun in such a long time with them and you are the perfect boys to help us" said Ishmael with a smirk.
"What do you have in mind Uncle Ish?" said Kasha to his uncle. That only made Ishmael's smirk to be more pronounced and a glint of mischief in his eyes appeared.
"Well, to put it simply. The 95% of the people in the ball think we are heartless and if they see us to act as we do with you both will give some of them a very strong and amusing reaction" said Severus with a smirk and glint as his brother.
"My, my you are planning to have some fun tonight my Childes?" said Vladimir going near them. He loved to see his childes acting a way that is not a normal way for them.
"What can we say it's actually something we are looking forward to; also you have to admit it will be really fun" said Ishmael. With a smile Vladimir shook his head and left.
"How I've missed their sarcastic nature. It will be really funny to see some of their faces" Vladimir thought to himself.
ISLATOV CLAN
"Vladimir, I know that smile and laugh, so tell me what does Ishmael did this time?" said Ivan to Vladimir. Recently the only time he saw that smile and laugh was when either of the Snape brothers did something really out of the ordinary for them; especially Ishmael.
"Well, Severus and Ishmael want to have their fun tonight with the guests and have asked the boys to help them" said Vladimir with a smile.
"So now I will be able to see some of that sense of humour that I've missed so much these years. We all need a good laugh and the fact that those four can be such a thing from time to time is a good combination. Tell me Vladimir, what does those childes of yours have in mind, mmm?" said Dimitri to Vladimir as he laughed.
"You'll have to wait and see. I don't want to spoil your fun after all" answered Vladimir with a laugh of his own.
The next moment they saw the boys near the food table and the Snape brothers going near them. Suddenly, out of the blue, Draco and Kasha turned and saw them. They started to run really fast to both vampires and they were waiting for them with their arms wide open. Once each of them was in the arms of each of the brothers they started to giggle and laughed as both spin them a little.
The whole room turned to see what was happening and when they saw the scene the reactions were hilarious. Some had their mouths wide open in an O form, others had their eyes open really big. This was one of the strangest happenings of all their reunions with the Islatovs. And there had been some really strange happenings.
When Severus said they would have fun seeing their faces some days ago, he wasn't disappointed to see it is true. Even if they were showing as if it was a daily occurrence, inside both brothers were laughing very hard.
For their part, the Islatovs and Malfoys were laughing really hard. Those brothers had such a reputation that the image they were presenting in that moment had nothing to do with that reputation.
"I see that the infamous Snape have a heart after all my dear friend. Your son has given so much love to your entire family and close friends that even them couldn't resist." said Enrique to Ivan.
"He is a blessing to all of us Enrique and he makes it so easy to love him. In a way I think that they were looking for someone to love as a son or daughter." said Ivan.
"You know how they can be and it gives us so much happiness to see them like that" said Narcissa and it was actually true. All of them had missed their weird and sarcastic sense of humour for a very long time. It was difficult to see them more human than not, but even with their character they were well respected and loved.
"I'm sure, I can see it. To tell you the truth I think he is a very valuable asset to your family, and I'm talking about every aspect. In some years you will have your hand full of young girls trying to be his girlfriend. It's a pity my daughter Valeria couldn't come to meet him, she was really excited about it, but it will be another time. Perhaps in 2 months that Ivan has to come to Mexico?" said Enrique.
"Mmmm, it sounds like a good idea. I want him to know how I manage our business and the trips will be helpful also for his Languages lessons. And my friend, don't say that he will be a heartbreaker, even though we know he will be, it's something that has my wife and Narcissa in a bad mood. They love their children to death and the fact that my father is teaching them his fine manners, as he puts it, have their nerves cracking" said Ivan.
With that both friends started laughing and continue seeing the scene between the Snape brothers and the children.
Dimitri Islatov was a very happy vampire. It seemed their life was getting better and better. If only her lovely Alexia and his Ivan Jr. and little Dimitri were with them. He knew they were watching the interactions and maybe they would see them. He could even hear his Alexia's laugh at the antics of the boys and adults. She loved the brothers as if they were her own from the beginning.
ISLATOV CLAN
Once the spinning run out, both brothers put the children in the floor. Then they exchanged the boys and gave them a tight hug. Both boys were really happy, not only acting as if they were. They loved their uncles with all their little hearts and they also knew their weird sense of humour; such sense of humour been taught to them even if they didn't even realize it.
"We didn't know their reactions will be this funny Uncle Sev" said Draco. He was so happy to be doing this; he liked how Uncle Severus and Uncle Ishmael mind worked. He just hoped to be just like them when he grew up.
"I told you it will be really funny little Dragon, but the most important thing is that you and Kasha are enjoying it as much as we do" said Severus with his arms full of a little Dragon.
"Uncle Ish, you have to teach us how to do these things! It's so funny! Look at Dad, Mom, Grandpa and the Malfoys!" said Kasha.
With that Ishmael turned and saw them. They were laughing with all their might, happy laughs. Vladimir even had tears. In that moment Vladimir saw him and Ishmael only smirked and had Vladimir laughing even harder. It was good to have the Little One with them. He really got the better of everyone, even the infamous Snape brothers.
A/N.- Tell me if you want more of the ball and... if you want him to go to Hogwarts or a little more of his life with his family.
