Chapter 62

Last Time:

Everyone leaves the hallway, and Zoe and Elijah heads up to Zoe's office.

"What are you going to do mother? I know you want to be with Alex and Albus" Elijah tells Zoe.

"I know. I will find a way to get them to trust me again. I know I screwed it up the first time, but that doesn't mean I can't have a second chance"

"But what happened to killing all of us to be a family again, so Mystic Falls could be in peace?"

"That is not the plan now" Elijah sees an evil glint in Zoe's eyes and knows this will NOT end well.

Now:

Alex sits on the couch with Dumbledore, since Dumbledore got Jenna, Elena and Jeremy to go out, so he can have some time with Alex.

"So that was my mother?" Alex looks up at Dumbledore with her big brown eyes.

"Yes" Dumbledore nods.

"So does that mean I am related to Klaus, Elijah and Rebekah?"

"They would be your half siblings" Alex looks down and at the floor. Dumbledore sighs and wraps am arm around her shoulders. Alex moves a little bit so her head could rest on his shoulder.

"Why is she like that? She broke your heart and mine. I don't want to be near her dad" tears fill Alex's eyes as Dumbledore hugs her closer.

Just then, there is a knock on the door. Dumbledore rubs Alex's arm before getting up and answering the door.

"Elijah" Dumbledore whispers seeing the vampire.

"Hello sir. May I speak with you?" Elijah asks. Dumbledore nods, and looks at Alex who is looking at him worriedly.

"I will be fine Ally. You stay here" Alex nods and turns on the TV allowing Dumbledore to step onto the deck. He closes the door and looking at Elijah, "let's take a walk"

As they walk down the road in silence, Elijah breaks the silence.

"Mother is going to try get between you and Alex" Elijah tells Dumbledore. Dumbledore looks at Elijah and nods.

"I figured as much. I don't know if I should just take Alex and leave, or stay and let it happen" Dumbledore tells Elijah honestly.

"Mother will hunt you down just to earn your forgiveness" Dumbledore nods at this information.

"What do you think I should do? Should I tell Alex?"

"I think you should, to give her a heads up. She will understand and I know she doesn't want to be near mother. Personally, I don't either. I think mother is stupid for doing that to you and Alex" Dumbledore smiles and pats Elijah on the shoulder as they rearrive to the house after walking about the block.

"Do you think that you could go to the high school and become a student? That way you could protect Alex, Jeremy and Elena?" Elijah smiles and nods.

"I would love to. But shouldn't you go to Hogwarts?"

"It will only be until January. After that, Jenna and I talked and we all will be moving to England. Jenna, Jeremy and Elena want to have a new start" Elijah nods once more allowing Dumbledore to open the door.

"I will keep an eye on the house at night. I will not allow mother, Klaus or Rebekah near here, in case Klaus and Rebekah decided to try and hurt Alex or the rest of you again"

"Thank you Elijah" Dumbledore nods before entering the house and fills Alex in.

~H&A~

At Hogwarts, 18 year old Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Harry Potter are sitting in their seats, looking for Alex.

"Where is she?" Ron asks looking around.

"Who are you looking for?" Ginny Weasley asks.

"Alex" Hermione, Harry and Ron mutters craning their necks, trying to find the brunette.

"Dumbledore isn't here either" Ginny points out. The Ministry of Magic allowed Harry, Ron, Hermione and Alex to come back to Hogwarts, to redue their final year because they saved the world.

"What?" Harry, Ron and Hermione's heads snap up to the high table to see in fact that Dumbledore is not present.

"Where is he?" Hermione asks.

Before anyone could answer McGonagall steps up to the podium. After all, the first years are already sorted.

"Welcome to a new year students, and it's nice to see familiar and non-familiar faces. Now, I know many of you are wondering where the Headmaster is and his daughter" McGonagall sends a knowing look at the Golden Trio, "Professor Dumbledore and Alex Dumbledore are currently gone away until January. They have family business, and Professor Dumbledore may pop up here and there, but it will be for important matter..." McGonagall trails off and Dumbledore pops in, and rushes to Hagrid, "just like this"

Hermione, Ron and Harry stare at Dumbledore and see a worried face. They see his mouth moving nonstop until he disappears and leaves a nervous looking Hagrid.

"I wonder what is going on" Harry whispers to Hermione and Ron, who nods in agreement.
