M/N: Sorry about the wait my wonderful people, but I had a few problems to deal with both with the Fic and real life. That doesn't matter now because here's the chapter...
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters or story of Harry Potter, but I do own Matt and Ollie and a couple of new things in this chapter
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For nearly a month it was basically the same routine day in and day out. For Ollie it consisted of waking up and usually spending the day in Diagon Alley. Matt's day was a little bit different. He usually woke up late, sat at the bar for a little bit, go find a nice looking witch in Diagon Alley. If his efforts failed in Diagon, he would venture into London to look for a nice looking muggle girl.
Today was different because both the brothers woke up at the same time and when they headed down to the bar they saw a familiar face. On a stool at the bar talking to Tom the bartender, sat Hermione Granger.
A look of shock registered on the twins faces as she turned and smiled at them. With what seemed to be a giggle Hermione waved at the guys, "Hi Matt, Hi Ollie."
Still in awe on how she found them, Matt and Ollie simply waved back. Matt over came the shock first by doing the normal thing he said everyday, "Tom I'll have a firewhisky," and indicating Hermione, "whatever she wants."
Hermione blushed a little while replying, "A butterbeer is fine, thank you." Turning back to Matt and Ollie, who had taken seats next to her, she began to talk, "I'm gonna bet that you're wondering how I found you?"
Ollie took point, "Yes that is indeed what we are wondering. We never told anyone where we were staying."
"Actually," blushing the slightest bit more, "when I was shopping at the market I heard Matt's voice and saw him flirting with a girl. I followed him and the girl until they went their separate ways and Matt returned here."
Ollie looked dumbstruck on how his brother, a protector could be so careless. Matt on the other hand laughed a little and flashed a signature smile, "You were following me?"
This comment sent Hermione into a shade of red that matched the Weasleys' hair. She turned away while she replied, "I had to find you guys some how and I didn't want to use the card because it wasn't an emergency,"
Smiling again Matt assured her, "It's all good, it doesn't matter." Hermione looked back and returned to her natural color. When she seemed better Matt continued, "Don't worry the card will tell us if you're in trouble or not."
Hermione looked even more relieved, yet slightly upset that she didn't have to suffer the embarrassment of following Matt. Turning to her drink she took a large swig of her butterbeer and set the glass down with a thud, "That's good to know, but we have a bit of news to discuss."
Curiousity plagued across both Matt and Ollie's faces. Hermione registered their faces as a good sign. Oliver cracked a smile himself, "What kind of news?"
"Well," Hermione leaned in as to not be overheard, "We're moving the package and might need some help if things go south." Pausing so that what she had just said registered, Hermione continued on, "Just in case be on stand by and have your brooms handy..."
"Brooms handy, huh," Matt looked happy at the mention of brooms. Standing up from the bar stool, Matt looked down at Hermione, "We'll be ready."
Following suit Hermione stood up and embraced the brothers in a hug, "Thank you so much." Letting go of the twins she turned around and exited out of the Leaky Cauldron.
Once she left, Ollie turned to Matt with a a joking look in his eye, "Do you even have your broom with you?"
"What the hell do you think?"
"Good point," Ollie placed a hand under his chin in a thinking position. Within a few seconds the gesture paid off, "There is a quidditch and broom store here in Diagon Alley."
Shock flitted into Matt's eyes, "You want to ride a British broomstick?"
"What's wrong with a British broomstick?" Oliver inquired.
Matt still looked apalled, "Nothing it's just that... They're so old fashioned."
"That's your problem," Matt said as he landed a slap on the back of Matt's head, "Just because according to you, the IceBolt is the best broomstick currently flying does not mean others suck."
The shocked face of Matt didn't change as he replied, "Of course they don't. The IceBolt is the American next generation of the Firebolt. Even I'll admit that the Firebolt is the greatest broomstick so far in wizarding history. The IceBolt can be made faster than it, but the other aspects drop once that happens. The Firebolt is nearly perfect in every way."
Ollie let Matt cool down and then offered a simple solution, "Why don't you apparate home and grab our broomsticks?"
Now Matt's face went from shocked to dumbstruck as he realized they could've done that the whole time. A smile appeared on Matt again as he spoke to his brother, "You know I love you right?" With a loud crack Matt disappeared and returned a few minutes later with two broomsticks in his hands. In his left hand stood Matt's IceBolt, all black with ice blue etching along the whole wood part of the broom. This was complimented by the ice blue letters that were at the hamdle that read, IceBolt. Matt's right hand helds Ollie's broom. It was the complete opposite of Matt's broom. The body was white with red markings along the whole thing. Ollie's broom was made by a fairly new American company. This was their first model they had ever made, The Shooting Star.
Ollie reached out and grabbed his broom. Meanwhile Matt looked at his brother, "What do we do now?"
The obvious answer came to Ollie's voice, "We wait."

I have most of this fic written and realized that it will be hard to write in more Protectors, but the is another Fic I'm writing that will have Protectors in it.
Question: Is it okay if I write you guys(those who want to be protectors" in the other fic?
