DarkPriestess66 says, Nymphadora isn't Piper's kid, so try and guess again.
Later that night, Nymphadora or Lynx as she demanded to be called, shot up in bed. "It's starting," she got out of her bed that was magically conjured in Alexis' dorm, since she was sorted into the Warren Dorm, after carefully explaining to Dumbledore that she was from the future without having to reveal anything. She was sorted in Dumbledore's office to avoid questions from the other students.
She went over to Alexis, and just stared at her for a few minutes, before shaking her awake,
"Wha?" Alexis muttered.
"Wake Up, Something wrong with Harry!" Lynx exclaimed,
Alexis was fully awake now, and out of bed pulling on her housecoat over her nightgown, and she and Lynx hurried down the stairs, and found Ron and Professor McGonagall leading Harry to Professor Dumbledore's office.
"What's going on with him," Alexis hisses at Lynx,
"He's been having very vivid dreams about Voldy," Lynx answers back in a hiss, "I'll explain more later,"
They reached Dumbledore's office, along with the other Weasleys. Lynx's eyes shined with unshed tears when she looked at the twins, her mind going back toward someone she rather not dwell on.
Lynx shook her head once Alexis tried to go over to Harry, "leave him be, he needs to do this,"
Dumbledore had his back turned "In the dream, were you standing next to the victim or looking down at the scene?"
"Neither. It was like I...Will you please just tell me what's happening?" Harry asks
Alexis looks over at Lynx, who she had a suspicion about being a Halliwell, when she used active powers.
Dumbledore walked over to a portrait of some wizard, "Everard, Arthur's on guard duty tonight. Make sure he's found by the right people."
the wizard nods and got up from his chair and left.
"Sir." Harry stated.
"Phineas." Dumbledore went to the next portrait, Alexis and Lynx knew at once that this person was a member of the Black Family. "You must go to your portrait at Grimmauld Place. Tell them that Arthur Weasley is gravely injured and his children will be arriving there soon by Portkey."
Everard returned, "They've got him, Albus. It was close, but they think he'll make it. What's more, the Dark Lord failed to acquire it."
"Oh, thank goodness. Next we need to-" Dumbledore sighed in relief.
"Look at me!" Harry shouted. "What's happening to me?"
Snape came in the office then, "You wished to see me, headmaster?"
Lynx saw him and her k-9 teeth elongated, like she was going to transfigure herself. Alexis saw this and grabbed a hold of Lynx's arms and pinioned them to Lynx's sides.
"Stop it." Alexis hisses,
"Oh, Severus. I'm afraid we can't wait. Not even til morning. Otherwise, we'll all be vulnerable." Dumbledore replies.
Snape dragged Harry out of the room.
Alexis and Lynx watched as the Weasley children went by Portkey. Then went back to the common room, lucky them that the holidays were started the next day.
Alexis sat on the couch with a one of the throw pillows clutched in her arms, "What's going on with Harry,"
Lynx sighed and looked up at Alexis, she felt the sudden need to fling herself into the other teen's arms, like she would have done countless times before with her mother. But she shook her head to clear it of the dreams of what once was. "It appears there is a connection between the Dark Lord's and Harry's minds. Whether he is, as yet, aware of this connection is for the moment unclear. Pray he remains ignorant."
Alexis paled at the thought of Voldemort reading Harry's mind, "You mean if he knows about it then, he'll be able to read Harry's mind?"
"Read it, control it, unhinge it. In this time's past it was often the Dark Lord's pleasure to invade the minds of his victims, creating visions designed to torture them into madness. Only after extracting the last exquisite ounce of agony, only when he had them literally begging for death would he finally kill them." Lynx replies, "I've read all about this war that is going on, in history books and another He-Who-Must-Be stopped fancies with the idea as well."
"Okay, well enough on stuff I can't deal with right now, what can you tell me about yourself?" Alexis asks
Lynx looks up, "I was born in San Fransisco, on April 16th, can't tell my birth year because that would give to much away, My mom would skin my hide if she knew I went back in time. Heck she even knew I went Hogwarts to come back to this timeline, she wouldn't let me hear the end of it, I have two older cousins, I don't like the first older one to much, but I'm really close to second one, we're almost like siblings, except he's 22 and I'm 16. yes, I have active powers from my mother's side of the family, but I can't use a wand. In my timeline. Hogwarts is open to both sides of magic. So any spell you can do with a wand, I can do with my hands."
"What year did you come from?" Alexis, fighting going to sleep.
"that's easy, I came from the year, 2025," Lynx laughed,
"What was with the losing your cool, back in Dumbledore's office." Alexis raised an eyebrow.
"I haven't really completed my Animagus form, so when I get really angry, I start to transfigure unless someone stops me. Like you did." Lynx answers, sheepishly, before looking down at her nails, "I don't have anywhere to go after this school year is over or at Christmas either, could I come with you?"
Alexis felt in her heart that this teen, didn't have much love or friends in her future, something was wrong with the world she came from, but what?
"Of course, you can. Even Hermione is coming with us. I see no reason for you not to." Alexis answers, biting her lip in way to suggest she wanted to comfort the girl. But she didn't know where these feelings were coming from.
It was Christmas Holiday and Alexis, who will spend the weekend at the manor was at number 12 Grimmauld Place with Hermione, Harry, Lynx, who was having rapports over the house for some odd reasons, and Sirius,
Children outside were having snowball fights, while inside, a miniature Santa Clause rode around on a broomstick, "Ho, Ho, Ho. Merry Christmas." it stated.
"Here we go," Mrs Weasley announced as she wheeled in Mr. Weasley "Daddy's back."
the children clapped,
Lynx lowered her eyes to the table, at the Weasley family, she knew that this family would soon be broken apart. Not that it wasn't already because Percy Weasley wasn't there.
Alexis looked over at Lynx, the teen has tears forming. "What's wrong?"
everyone looked over at Alexis and Lynx, when the first teenager spoke.
"Nothing, this reminds me of what I used to have with my family, everyone together before The Great Tragedyhappened." Lynx replies. She knew it hasn't happened yet, but wasn't there a way to save her aunt before she dies?
"Sit down, everybody, sit down. That's it. Now, presents." Molly announced changing the subject. She handed out presents to everyone including Lynx.
Lynx stared at her gift, she didn't know that she would be getting anything.
"I wrote to Mrs. Weasley the night you came here, don't worry you can trust them to keep the secret." Alexis explains,
"And a nice big box for Ron." Mr. Weasley stated.
"Big box for you. And..." Mrs. Weasley agrees before passing Fred and George their gifts, and not getting the right twin. "Fred and George. Come on, open up. I want to see your faces."
Alexis opened her gift and pulled out a pair of kitted mitts and a scarf,
Lynx opened hers and pulled out a sweater, with the animal, she taken her nickname from.
Ron got a vest with the letter R on it. "Yes."
"Try in on." Mrs Weasley urged.
Everyone got clothes, Harry came in.
"Come on, then, everybody. Let's clear this away." Molly stated then Harry walks in, "Oh, Harry, Harry. There you are." she walked over and gave him a hug "Happy Christmas."
"Thank you." replies Harry
"Lovely to have you with us," Molly stated.
"Thank you," Harry replies again.
Everyone was settling down to eat supper,
"A Christmas Toast. To Mr. Harry Potter without whom I would not be here." Mr. Weasley stated. "Harry."
"Harry." the rest agrees.
"Harry," Sirius states.
"Happy Christmas, Dad." Alexis stated as she got up from her seat and went over to him, and hugged and kissed his cheek. Sirius hugged her back before pulling out a neatly wrapped package from his pocket and handing it to his daughter.
Alexis looked up as she opened the gift, inside the box lay necklace, with a blue stone on the with what appeared to be a jungle cat holding it, "Dad, it's beautiful."
"It was your mother's" Sirius explained with the ghost of sadness in his eyes.
Lynx coughed and looked at Alexis, Alexis looked back and Lynx was mouthing the words Summoning Spell.
Alexis gasped and smacked her forehead, "I forgot yours and Harry's presents upstairs, Lynx, would you help me?"
"I don't mind," Lynx replies,
the two girls left the room and went upstairs.
Alexis turned to her, "I didn't really get Sirius anything you know that right."
"Yes, that is why I thought of the Summoning Spell, what better way then to summon three spirits for the Holidays." Lynx replied as she went around to gather the white candles, she needed. After the candles were lit.
Alexis and Lynx joined hands, and Alexis gasped as she felt the blood magic connection flare to life. Lynx was a Halliwell, but whose daughter was she?'
Hear these words
hear my cry
Spirits from the
other side
Come to me I
summon thee
Cross now the Great Divide
three sets of white lights appears in the circle of candles, materializing into Evangeline Black nee Brooks, James and Lily Potter.
"Alexis, oh my Alexis," Evangeline cried as she rushed out of the circle and became corporal, hugging her daughter.
"Mama." Alexis replies as she hugged,
"Eve, who is this girl?" Lily asks
Evangeline turned around and pulled Alexis in front of her, "Your goddaughter, you silly woman."
"Morgana?" James gasps
"Yes, but my name's Alexis Portia Morgana Black-Halliwell now,"
"You wouldn't be related to Penny, Patty, and Prue Halliwell, are you?" Lily asks, "Ever since we crossed over we met them, and I found out the truth."
"Yes, I'm related to them, Penny is my grams, Patty is my spirit-mom, and Prue's my sister." Alexis explains, her voice cracking on Prue's name. "Step out of the circle of candles, I have some people, who would like to see you,"
"I'll wait up here with them, you go make the two close their eyes." Lynx suggests,
Alexis skipped out of the room and went back into the kitchen,
"I couldn't wrap your gifts, if you would close your eyes, they will be here shortly," Alexis announced.
"They?" asks Ginny
"Yeah, rather large presents." Alexis replies, "So close your eyes, Harry don't make me take your glasses from you,"
Sirius and Harry both closed their eyes,
"Alright Lynx, bring them in." Alexis shouted up the stairs. Then she went to stand next to her father,
Evangeline walked in first and went over Sirius and kissed his cheek,
Sirius opened his eyes and fell out of his chair, "Evangeline! What? How?"
"Power of a Charmed daughter, my love." Evangeline laughed, as she sat down next her husband, "I've missed you."
"Don't forget about us too" James' voice called out,
Harry felt his heart stop, then looked at his parents then glared at Alexis, "This is personal gain."
"Is not. I did this for you and Dad." Alexis replies, sticking out her tongue.
Lynx laughed at Alexis, "You haven't changed one bit." then realized what she said and slapped her hands over her mouth.
"She knows you, Alexis," James states after hugging Harry,
"Really well," Lily adds,
"Are you my niece?" Alexis asks "I felt the connection between us, the blood magic."
"No," Lynx replies, "I'm not either of Piper's, Phoebe's or Paige's children,"
"that leaves me or Harry." Alexis replies,
"Nope, Not Harry's either." Lynx states,
"You're my daughter." Alexis gasps
"Yes, my whole name is Nymphadora Ginevra Halliwell-Diggory" Lynx stated.
"That's my name!" Ginny exclaimed.
"Yes, my parents gave me my middle name after you," Lynx explains,
Alexis fainted, luckily Sirius caught her,
"Well I didn't think she would take it like that," Lynx replies,
a while later with Lynx sitting next to her, Alexis woke up,
"I'm sorry that I told you about me," Lynx apologized, looking down,
"Why? I'm not your mother yet." Alexis replies, "Where's everyone else?"
"Harry and Sirius are having a private chat with Gram Evangeline, and Aunt Lily and Uncle James" Lynx answers, "Harry thinks he's turning into Voldy."
"Oh, I wish he would tell me that." Alexis replies
"the others are just freaked out that I'm your future kid but they're taking well." Lynx stated. "Major bombshell, I know but I can't help it."
after that everyone left to go back to school, until January 31. When Alexis got an letter saying she needed to come home and fast. She grabbed Lynx's hand and flamed back to the manor. Enduring questions about Lynx, saying they'll explain after the baby was born.
DarkPriestess66 says next chapter is The dead when Magic died. So I don't own it in advance. Lol.
