Chapter XXVII
Everyone decided to spend the night at the Potter's as they saw how late it was getting when heading back to the house to find out what was to happen for them as they saw the evening coming to a close.
Lily had called up her folks and Remus after he came back in with Hermione and telling them they would be sleeping over at the Potter's. Remus' parents said it was all right with them and would've liked to meet Sonja sometime soon and he promise he would and have her over their house this break to have them meet her and get to know her better.
Lily, however was having a harder time trying to convince her folks to let them sleep over as she told them many times that they weren't doing anything with the boys but hanging out and that it was becoming late and the Potter had allowed her and the other girls to stay in their extra rooms, which was the clubhouse's to be exact.
The Evans were reluctant, considering that there daughter along with two other girls were there with teenage boys and staying over for the night but when they heard their daughter promised that nothing was going to happened and Mr. Potter, who came back home to check up on how thing were faring with everyone, talked with Lily's parents and promised them to take them home personal in the morning. Finally her parent agreed, only as they told her as long as there was no funny stuff happened with the boys.
They all had returned to the house at about the same time, not very much noticing the disarray state they were in, wondering what James and Lily were doing right now and found them in the parlor on the couch together, Lily snug in James arms.
Her dress a little bit wrinkle, well less wrinkle than the other girls' and her lipstick smug but nothing much compared to James whose hair was messier and his glasses hanging crookedly on the bridge of his nose, holding Lily and turn around his head over the couch and saw the three of them coming in, looking worse than them with their hair wild and messy, Hermione's bushier than everyone's and their clothes being in a disarrange, one or two buttons missed and their dresses completely tousled and walking with a slight limp.
"Blimey, Padfoot, Moony, what the bloody heck happened? And Keller where did you get those—" His eyes travel down from Keller's blushing cheeks and Sirius' silly grin to their linked hands and putting the two together smiled at them, thinking about time they became a couple just like him and Lily and Remus and Mione.
"I see congrats are in order to Padfoot and Keller on becoming the new couple! Nice to see you getting together and I lift my butterbeer if I had one to the two of you and hope your relationship is as good as our."
"Ours too Padfoot." Remus said while he kissed Hermione's cheek and pulled her towards him as she said the same the same to her cousin who nodded and smiled, feeling happy and giddy like everyone else.
Yeah who would have thought that me and Sirius would end up together and become a couple…especially with a someone like a Casanova flirty type I use to found too much my opposite but strangely found myself attracted too. I guess opposites do really attract. She thought asSirius turned around and smiled at her.
Why thank you love, I was thinking along the same lines like you, we both do think alike, complete opposites but head over heels over each other, guess that really makes us soulmate then.
Don't push your luck there, Siri.
Siri? He asked curious and she was starting to get red again as she thought, Well you call me Kell and I thought to call you Siri, but don't you ever call me 'Kelly', that's bad enough when the Evans started calling me that and elder it was annoying.
Don't worry about it, I would never do such a thing to you and I like the nickname Siri.
Keller smiled and was trying in a fail attempt to put her messy hair into a somewhat ponytail while he just shook his out and ran his hand through, casually fixing it to have his sleek back and fall loosely over his shoulder. When she pulled her hair away from her neck, he saw the slight dark marks on her throat, noticing how it stand out against her pale skin and nobody couldn't help but notice them.
"Oh my Merlin, Keller nice hickeys!" Lily said as everyone's eyes look towards her when she touched her neck, feeling the dark bruises on her flesh and her eyes widen and look to Hermione and Remus who were grinning and giggling like everyone else at them.
Sirius smirked while he brought his arm around her and whispering in her ear, "And that's not the only hickey I place on you, isn't that right Kell?"
Keller flush redder than Lily's hair, knowing if the other girls heard what he said or saw where else he place them, she would not hear the end of it, especially not from her cousin after weeks of teasing her senseless of her and Remus. I swear if I can get through this, I will never tease my cousin ever again. She turn her head slightly to look at him with a gaze to tell him to keep his mouth shut
If you dare make any mention of where you put them Siri, cute or not, I swear I will… She didn't know exactly what to threat as Sirius chuckled throatily, speaking through their mind link to her, calming her down with promising not to tell where the 'others' were.
You worry too much Kell, this is just between you and me, and nobody else. Personally I like to keep what we did to ourselves as well I know is how you like it when I do this, and brushed her hair to the side before she had a chance to protest and buried his face on her throat, nuzzling and purring like a happy kitten. She didn't know whether to rolled her eyes or moan as his warm breath touch her skin and his tongue lick those marks he left on her, making her aroused once more, feeling the adrenaline rush in her veins, pumping the blood in her body to go to her core, the heat heading down below and causing her to become moist and wet at his touch.
God if this keeps up, I'm not sure if I'll even get some rest with what you are doing to me Sirius… And could almost hear him growling in her head as he thought the same thing, wanting to do that very much while she tried to resist giving in so easily.
She turn to her attention to James and Lily, hoping for something to keep her distracted as Sirius was sucking on her neck and nibbling her skin with everyone still watching them, feeling embarrassed that they were the center of attention, "So um where are we going to be spending the night then Lily? You told your parents where we are staying at?" She tried to swat Sirius' hands from going any lower to her dress and seeing he was getting impatient before her cousin finally rescued her.
"Easy there Padfoot, my cousin isn't going anywhere just yet, you'll get to see her later tomorrow in the morning. Oh by the way, mistletoe is above your heads."
MIONE! She thought shocked while she looked to her with a Cheshire grin, time for payback for all those times you tease me and Remus, Kell, I'm sure you two don't mind having some fun together.
Keller would have been groan while Sirius finally let her go and looked up to the ceiling then to her, "Hey it's tradition and we can't break the rules of tradition you know." and gave her a passionate kiss that seem to make her inside warm before they pulled apart, satisfied or so at least before Lily told them where they would be staying, for the girls at least.
"We're going to be sleeping in the clubhouse. James' dad told us so before I told my parents as long as we didn't do any monkey business." She said as Hermione and Keller tried to hide their glowing faces and flushed cheeks while Remus and Sirius were snickering and holding back their laughter, thinking it was a little too late for that. They wrapped their arms around their girlfriends' waists and brought them closer before they heard the loud chimes on the father clock, announcing it was eleven o'clock and decided to call it a night.
The girls said goodnight to their boyfriends along with a quick goodnight kiss as they complain it wasn't fair without one. Hermione and Remus had their tongues tangoing for fifty seconds before pulling back and had to bite back her tongue from laughing as she watch how Sirius and Keller were locking lips together and possibly doing what they did before finally was able to pulled them apart with the help of James and Sirius who grabbed him. "Come on Romeo, you'll see your Juliet in the morning but give her a break why don't you."
Sirius glared from James and then having an idea as he looked back at her, "Farewell. I will omit no opportunity. That may convey my greetings, love, to thee." Keller stopped and turned her head around and smiled at him as he spoke the words of Romeo to Juliet before they parted ways, I see you have been reading up on your Shakespeare.
Almost a whole series I found in that library, geez that guy wrote a lot of plays didn't he. I personally like the Midsummer's Dream but I read that Romeo and Juliet book twice and reminding me of you as the fair Juliet and me as the love struck Romeo falling for the fair beautiful Capulet, or should I call you lady Corvin…
She felt excitement bubble inside her like fresh champagne and decided to play along, speaking the words of Juliet, in a heartfelt sorrow while the two girls try to drag her away from her passionate lover, "O think'st thou we shall ever meet again?" Sirius grin, watching as her eyes gazed longing at him with her eyes filled with love, waiting for his answer and he reply in the same manner of tone, "I doubt it not, and all these woes shall serve. For sweet discourses in our time to come."
And before anymore could be said, James put his hand over Sirius mouth and practically dragged him with Remus away to their room upstairs while the girls headed back outside for the clubhouse.
"I think that it was a bad idea lending him your copy, Moony. He had me playing as Juliet in most of them and I thought I would have died if he had kissed me when I read what they did!" He shudder, repulsed and appalled as how Sirius had been saying in Act One, scene five with their first kiss while Remus laughed about that and Sirius blushed before taking one last look below to see the girls heading out back and Keller blowing him an air kiss before closing the door behind her.
Once they made it to the clubhouse and upstairs, Lily took James's room, Hermione with Remus' room and Keller's in Sirius' room, knowing what a mess if anyone saw the damage they did in their together. They went to use the bathroom to change as they were given some clothes from the guys to wear as they got out of their outfits and get ready for bed.
Hermione was pulling on the T-shirt over her head as she stepped out from the bathroom, relieved and change, holding her dress in one arm and draped it over the chair in her room. Her T-shirt held a silver wolf howling with a pale moon behind it's head, long, reaching close to her calves and Keller was using the bathroom that interconnects with Remus' and Sirius'.
Hermione looked around the room that she was going to be sleeping in and saw his was a lot cleaner than the others' and smell his scent surrounding her, reminding her of the forest, the natural earth, the wolf inside wanting to change and be free, feeling like she was right at home in his room.
She saw he kept everything neat and organized in his room, his desk tidy and cleared of dust, his books, worn and old looking but in alphabetic order and the few robes he owned hung in the closet and his clothes folded in the drawer nicely. Hermione moved her hands over the spines of the books, feeling the ancient texture and stop when her hand touch the book 'Hogwarts: A History' and thinking of how she was going to be staying in a time not her own.
Would she be able to handle staying here, in the past for the rest of her whole life, watching the years go by, the seventies, eighties, seeing the terrible things happening before her very eyes that she could possible try and keep it from getting bad as it was in her future?
No, we can't! We can't change the timeframe, that's what keeps thing from getting worse and changing the past is forbidden. It will only keep things from becoming bad to worse.
Or you can change it for the better. You can help, you can stop the Dark lord from reaching his power, you can have Harry keep his parents, Sirius can still be saved and you can have your family again…
No I can't do that, no matter how much I want to, no matter how much I want Harry to have his own parents or save Sirius or many others. If I do, things could change and be turn worse, the Dark Lord might actually win and that would be chaotic enough having the world plunge into darkness because of what I try to do...
Hermione sigh and headed over to her bed and flopped on the covers, pressing her face against her pillow, trying to erase the thoughts from coming, to keep the intentions down from trying to take over her and go and tell Remus and Sirius or contact Dumbledore, to tell them everything that was to happen in the horrid future, I just wish I had an idea on what to do what's right. I wish there was someone to guide me, to help me give strength to what I must do. And everyone always tells me I know everything when I'm not so sure what to do.
She laid her head on the pillow, staring at the ceiling, thinking if she got some sleep the answer would come and closed her eyes before she heard her name being called.
Mione…Mione…She pressed her face to the pillow, trying to ignore her cousin, even tried to disconnect the link they had but no matter how hard she pressed the pillow over her ears or try to close it she still heard her calling, becoming louder than ever.
Mione…MioneKeller, I'm not in the mood right now, and I'm just getting ready to go to bed. So please stop calling my name and let me get to sleep, sheesh...you're persistent at times you know that.
"What the Hell are you talking about, I was about to ask the same thing of you. You were calling me as I was putting my pjs on, geez what's up with that?"
Hermione looked up from her pillow to see Keller standing by the bathroom door, wearing a large dark T-shirt and sweatpants with small black puppies printed and running around on it.
"You mean that wasn't you?" She asked, bewildered and baffled. But that voice it sounded just like Keller's, but how? But something had seem different with that voice, it sounded familiar to her but where had she had heard it.
Keller shook her head, looking to her with the same confused look, "Well it wasn't me either so…" Before Hermione had a chance to say anything she felt a sudden rush of pain reach inside her head and she screamed and the echoing of her shriek echo in her head making the pain worse.
Keller noticed the distress feeling change and tried to see what was wrong before she felt it too and double over in pain, grabbing her hands over her head, trying to stop it from being thunderous in her ears. It was hammering inside her skull like little demons using pitchforks poking around and were driving those damn bastards in worse than she ever had to endure in her life, even with Drake's training but she had her limitation.
But never had she had gotten this kind of torture in her mind. She thought she would die screaming or be driven into madness in the blind fury. She would rather have death over having to deal with this monster fucking her.
"AHH! FUCKING HELL! WHAT THE FUCKING ELDER IS HAPPENING!" She shriek as it was growing stronger and made her way to Hermione's bed, groping for her hand and holding it, trying to stop what was trying to kill her and the torment growing worse by the minute, going from her head to her whole body as if that wasn't enough to mentally damage her but to see the rest fall apart as well.
She screamed again and Hermione joined her, shrieking, "Make it stop, make it fucking stop!" Her voice becoming more the howls of an enraged beast and felt the hybrid inside, threatening to break free, to stop whatever the hell she was feeling. "PLEASE MAKE THIS STOP!"
Lily suddenly appeared in the room, rushing when she heard all the screaming and the noise barrier almost making the whole house shake and it was all coming from Hermione's room when she heard all the commotion going on. "Hey what's going on you guys, I could hear you two screaming and—"
Lily gasped as she saw Hermione's eyes, pulsing blue-black veins traversed the white in her eyes, spreading until her cinnamon brown orbs took an unnatural cobalt hue then turn striking black and saw the same happening with Keller's, both were screaming like bloody murder and saw the serrated fangs jutting from their mouths and Lily, paralyzed with fear and watching the grimsly transformation then a bright blinding light appeared around them and she had to cover her eyes before the light faded and when she was able to see again, the room slightly blurred in her vision but then focus back into perspective and found Keller and Sonja, the both of them completely gone from the room.
Vanished, into thin air, without a trace. Lily's face became pale before she started calling out there names, hoping they were in the house somewhere and what she had seen had been an illusion of them transforming and look around from their rooms to downstairs and finding them nowhere to be seen.
"Oh no…Sonja! Keller!" I got to tell James and the others what happened! She ran out of the clubhouse back to the house itself where the boys were in James' room, talking and getting ready for bed themselves, pulling off their clothes and grabbing their pajamas before Lily came in, crashing open the door to where all three of them were almost naked and barely wearing anything.
"Gawd! Lily learn to knock next time why don't you, Merlin we could have been butt-naked for all you know!" Sirius said as he had been without his shirt and pants and almost had his boxer down before she came running and he had dropped them and tried to cover up with his hands. Lily chose to ignore him without turning to look in his direction, which was a relief as he pulled his boxers and pants up as she looked towards James and told him in one quick breath that didn't make sense the first time to them but on the second it went like this.
"They're gone, vanished, disappeared, into thin air! They've— I don't know how to say what happened. I was in my room, getting ready to sleep when I heard screaming coming from Remus' room and they sound they were in pain or something and thought I should go see so I went to check on them to see if they were all right and then I saw- I saw Sonja's eyes, they changed and so did Kellers. And I saw they had longer teeth and I thought it was just a hoax being played by them then the next thing I see is this bright light came, flashing around them and—"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa Lily, slow down and back up, what are you talking about, who's gone?" James asked trying to calm his girlfriend who looked to have gotten the shock of her life as she stood there shaking like a leaf, wearing a long sleeve shirt and pants borrowed from him but she hadn't been shaking from cold but something much worse as she had seen what happened.
Remus moved from his spot, wearing a pair of dark running pants lend from Sirius and placed his hand on her shoulder and she turn to him as he said in a calmer tone, "Take a deep breath Lily, take a nice long deep breath, count to ten, then tell us what happen…"
She did, taking long deep breath counting before she was able in control of herself and then finally said, "It's Sonja and Keller, they've disappeared, they're gone!"
This caught everyone's attention as waiting for Lily to explain why she had intruded in while they were changing. Sirius who had been sitting on the bed and craning his arm to the side behind his back before he heard that Keller had disappeared and crashed to the floor and was getting up, staggering and gaping at her, hoping it was a twisted joke the girls came up with and Remus had the same reaction for Mione as they both said at the same time, "WHAT?!"
Sirius moved forward and grabbed both her arms, "Is this some kind of joke? It can't be true, it's not, right? RIGHT?!" James pulled him off her as she looked steadily to everyone again and could hear the serious solemn tone she said.
"It's true. They've disappeared from the room, they're gone!"
