Here's the next chapter, finally. Scorpius, Lorcan and Lysander all return to Hogwarts along with the Weasley children. This chapter will also introduce Scorpius/Rose that will grow stronger in the future as the two of them get older. I just love the thought of Ron and Draco having their children fall for each other and the insanity that it causes.


It was later that morning when Scorpius, Lysander and Lorcan walked into the Gryffindor common room with Draco right behind them. He, with Bree in his arms, had wanted to come with the three boys and make sure they got settled back into the dorms okay while Luna took Lila with her to visit with Hannah Longbottom.

He saw Ron, Harry and Neville standing over in the corner of the room, quietly talking and walked over to them. The three men had nervous looks on their faces before Harry finally started to speak.

"Malfoy, I just found out that Daphne was somehow released before the three day hold had expired. We suspect that it was Greg Goyle who helped her get out of St. Mungo's."

"Bloody hell!"

Draco looked like he could strangle someone at that moment and the three men with him didn't blame him at all for it. Daphne Greengrass Nott had already proven herself to be relentless in her need to take custody of her late sister's children. Now they had to worry about her partnering up with someone might not be very smart but had plenty of Galleons to spare to help in her quest.

"I have assigned Ron to keep an eye on their whereabouts and Neville will take care of not only Scorpius but also Lysander and Lorcan. Now that you and Luna are engaged to be married, they could also be targeted by those two idiots as well."

"Thank you."

The three men quietly continued their conversation until the sight of Rose Weasley coming down the stairs from the girls dorms and throwing her arms around Scorpius made Ron and Draco both stop talking. Harry and Neville fought not to grin at the sight of two fathers that really didn't get along with each other finding out that their children didn't have the same problem that they did.

"That's just perfect! First he's a Gryffindor and now hugging a Weasley girl, father is going to love this!"

"Hey! Don't talk about my daughter that way. Your son would be damn lucky to end up with my Rose, the little git!"

Ron and Draco looked ready to come to blows, when Harry quickly got between them while Neville quickly removed Bree from her father's arms.

"Not in front of the children! Hermione and Luna will not be very happy with either one of you if you start a fight here in the dorms. Besides Scorpius and Rose are not doing anything wrong, it was just a hug between friends. They are only eleven years old, I think you don't have to worry about them running off to elope yet," Harry stated calmly but with a touch of sarcasam in his voice.

"He's right. Mione will have my arse if I fight in front of our children and I don't think Luna is a pushover, so it might in both of our best interests to let this go."

Draco didn't say a word, he just nodded to both men as if to indicate that he understood what they were saying. He started to take Bree back from Neville when he found his little girl smiling at the Herbology Professor, who seemed to be enchanted with the baby. Neville stopped short when he realized the other three men were watching him interact with Bree and handed her back to Draco.

"I apologize, I was just getting some practice in dealing with a baby.. Hannah is pregnant and thank Merlin what that piece of shit Creevy did to her didn't hurt the baby."

"Congratulations, Neville. So it finally happened for the two of you?" Harry was happy for his friend but could tell that there was still an air of sadness about him.

"Yes, the doctors at St. Mungos discovered it when they examined her after the rape. I think the baby is the only thing keeping Hannah from giving into the dispair and depression that she is feeling." He clenched his fists in anger as he continued to speak. "Amber Finnegan did everyone a favor when she shot that bastard."

The other three wizards silently agreed with him as they watched the Gryffindor's leaving and entering the common room as the school day went on.


Meanwhile Luna sat in a chair in Neville's quarters, watching Hannah lying on the couch as the other woman stared at the pictures that were on the wall. She could hear Lila giggling in the kitchen area while playing a game with Lily at the table. Hermione and Ginny were making a pot of tea and distracting the two little girls while Luna and Hannah talked in the sitting area.

"Hannah, I understand exactly how you are feeling. The only thing that kept me from going completely mental after Rolf raped me was my children and the fact that they needed me. I couldn't fall apart and give into the urge to hide from the world, my babies needed their mother."

" Luna, what made you decide to keep your baby even though it was concieved in the worst possible way?"

"I found out that I was pregnant before Lila was found and brought back to me. In my mind this was my second chance at having another baby so now that I have my little girl back, this makes it so much sweeter. I refuse to hold my child responsible for what their father did and this child is a apart of me too."

"Don't get me wrong, I'm happy about the fact that Neville and I are finally having a baby. It just all I see in my head whenever I close my eyes to go to bed at night is Dennis Creevy forcing himself on me and then seeing Colin standing there, begging his brother to stop. The devastation on his face will stay with me for the rest of my life as he realized just how far gone his brother was. That there wasn't any way to save him and stop him from killing people."

Hannah's eyes were filled with tears as she talked about what had happened to her. Luna got up from the chair, walked over to the couch, sat down beside the sobbing witch and held her friend, letting her cry until she got it all out of her system.

Back at the Malfoy Manor, Narcissa and Molly, who had came over to help with what they had set out to do, walked into Astoria's chambers. They had decided to wait until the children had gone back to school and when Draco was gone to Hogwarts, to take on this difficult task. Everything had to be sorted and determined what went back to the Greengrass family and what stayed back at the Manor for Scorpius and Bree to have when they were older.

As the two witches worked, Molly was going through one of the drawers in the wardrobe and found a muggle cardboard box. She opened it and found vials of what looked to be stored memories. She turned around and saw Narcissa working with one of her house elves on going through all of Astoria's clothes."

"Narcissa, I think you need to see this."

Molly watched as the other witch walked over to where she was standing and glance down at the box that was lying in the drawer. She waited quietly as Narcissa picked up one of the vials and glanced at it before placing it back into the box.

"Oh bloody hell! That little bint is lucky that she is dead because if these vials are about more secrets that she was keeping, I am going to go mental!"

Molly stared at the blond witch, knowing that if she was having an uncharacteristic outburst then whatever memories these vials contained could cause even more drama to Draco, Luna and their children.


AN: The memories in the vials will be something that will turn the family dynamic that Draco and Luna have set up with their children upside down.
