I do not own the Harry Potter world neither the characters. JK owns them.
In this story, Remus survived the Final Battle and Nymphadora died with her son, Teddy.
Hey, this is my first fanfic.
After the war, a lot of people were devastated because it left a huge gap in the Wizarding World. The population decreased in a very shocking level which left the newly appointed Minister, Kingsley Shacklebolt no choice.

At the Grimmauld Place…
Hermione woke up early and no one yet was up so as quiet as she can, she walked towards the kitchen and drank a glass of water.
*tap* *tap*
Hermione looked at the window and saw Pig, the Weasley's family owl. Curiously, she opened the window and took the letters from Pig. After giving the owl some treats, she browsed through the letters. All of them were addressed to a few occupants of the Grimmauld Place and shockingly, every letter contains the Ministry seal.
Why would the Ministry send letters? Maybe "Kings" is just asking what we're doing.. But individually. Oh, never mind. thought Hermione as she sat in the living room couch.
Then she heard the boisterous laughter of the Weasley siblings and Harry, followed by Mrs. Weasley's furious yell.
"Good morning Hermione." greeted Remus who sat beside her and smiled lazily at her.
"Good morning Professor Lupin. Can't they be a little bit quiet in the morning?" asked Hermione jokingly.
Remus just chuckled at her then he noticed the letters that Hermione is holding.
"What's that you're holding?" inquired Remus as he looked pointedly at the letters.
"I'm actually going to ask about these." she answered.
Remus took the letters then browsed through them. At the end, he found his and decided to open it. As he read, Hermione tried to peek at the letter but she couldn't because of the way Remus was holding it. Suddenly, Remus paled and looked very ill.
"Professor, what's wrong?" asked Hermione who casted a worried look to Remus.
"Hu- What?. It's nothing." replied Remus.
He glanced at Hermione in a way that made her nervous.
Is there something wrong with me? Hermione asked herself mentally.
Remus stood up and left. After leaving, Hermione was quite puzzled with his action but was distracted by Ginny when she sat energetically beside her.
