"You know, Hermione is fairly good looking…" Matt was nudging Ollie as they joined the crowd that was walking back to Hogsmeade.
The look on his brother's made Ollie realize he was somewhat serious, but mostly having fun. With a little kick of laughter Ollie hit his brother in the arm, "While we're here can you keep the flirting to a minimum, please?" Oliver mimed a pleading look on his face.
"Anything for you little brother," Matt replied as he and Ollie continued down the road in the village. Matt was older than Oliver by about ten minutes and Matt usually never let Ollie forget it. Even though he was a little bit older, Matt lacked the discipline that Ollie had. Both of the brothers liked to play around, but Ollie acted more like the big brother.
Although Matt and Ollie are brothers yet they could not be more opposite. Matt stood tall at about six foot four inches tall. Ollie on the other hand barely grazed six feet. The light brown hair of Oliver stood in contrast to Matt's brown, nearly black hair.
Their differences even extended into the magical world. Oliver's wand was a good nine and one quarter inches with Yew as its base and hair form the mane of a kelpie for its core. This allows his wand to work well for all spells. Matt's wand stands at fourteen and three quarter inches with cherry wood for the base and runespoor fang for its core. Runespoor fang is a particularly interesting core considering it works best against dark magic.
While wandering around Hogsmeade the brothers' conversation drifted off towards quidditch. "There was no way your team could've won that match," boasted Matt as they were by what used to be Honeydukes.
Ollie stopped in his tracks retaliating at his brother, "Hold on, what are you talking about?"
"You heard me the only reason you scraped some glory off that loss was you went into a suicide dive to catch the snitch," Matt had stopped now too and had a glare on his face.
Cracking a smile, Ollie laughed, "You know what you're right. I broke three ribs and cracked my skull on that dive."
A voice came from behind them, "Ouch that must've hurt."
The brothers turned to see that Harry, Ron, and Hermione standing behind them. Ollie laughed again, "It did."
Harry seemed a lot more jovial now that he was talking about quidditch, "So, you're a seeker, huh? I play seeker and Ron over here," he patted Ron on the shoulder, "Plays keeper."
"Really," Matt seemed interested in this development, "We might just have to play a match or two."
Ollie took over seeing the confusion on Ron's face, "Matt plays chaser for his division team."
Now the group seemed even more confused. Hermione spoke up to voice her lack of knowledge at this moment, "His what team?"
"His division team," Ollie looked horrified that they hadn't heard of divisions, but he soon realized that they were not in the United States. Ollie thought for a moment and then came up with the solution, "A division is what you call a house here at Hogwarts."
A look of understanding dawned upon their faces. This time Harry spoke, "Okay that makes sense."
Matt looked at Ollie and then nudged him, "Ollie I think it is time that we headed out." Oliver nodded at his brother and then raised a hand to say goodbye.
Hermione once again looked puzzled, "Um, I know this sounds weird but how can we get a hold of you guys?"
A signature smile flashed on Matt's face. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a business card and handed it to Hermione, "This should do the trick."
"Matt and Oliver Kingston, Protectors," Hermione held the card in her hand, "How will this help us contact you?"
Matt just smiled even more, "You of all people should understand that magic is everywhere, but since that isn't very clear here's a little explanation. Whenever you need us just find that card and we'll find you."
Hermione, still unpleased a little, thanked them anyway, "Thank you, but one more question please. Where will you be staying?"
This time Matt turned to Ollie who just shrugged, "That is a good question, but we'll figure it out eventually. Alright I think that is about it, so see you guys later." Once he finished, Matt waved at the group and he and Ollie disappeared with two loud cracks.
Arriving with two loud cracks, the twins landed somewhere in London. Oliver turned to his brother, "Do you even know where we are?"
A skeptical look showed on Matt's face, "Of course I don't. You know that."
"Then what the hell are we doing here?"
Matt palmed his forehead and explained why they were there, "We need a place to stay don't we?"
Oliver felt an extreme rush of stupidity as he realized why they were there. Across the street from them stood, quite possibly the most famous wizarding bar in the entire world, The Leaky Cauldron.
Matt motioned to his brother, "Let's go." The brothers walked across the street and entered the Leaky Cauldron.
Once inside the twins looked for the proprietor of the bar. They found him sitting behind the bar. It seemed that business was slow that day. Matt went over to the bartender, "Excuse me but do you have two rooms that we could rent?"
The bartender, "I have a few, there up on the third floor. The name is Tom by the way. Is there anything else I can get you?"
"I'm Matt and that's my brother Oliver," he pointed over his shoulder at his brother, "and I'll have the best firewhisky you got. Its gonna be a long journey."

Question: I'm saying it now that Matt and Ollie are not the only Protectors, more will be showing up (Later in the fic). My question is more of a request if you want to be made into a Protector just post a review asking me and I'll let you know.
