Death's Life Debt Keeperoliver Chapter 30

A/N: Just have to ask, did anyone see Harry Potter dancing and singing during the Tony awards. His voice isn't the best in the world, and his dance certainly fit the theme of the show from the start. You had to see the opening number to know what this infers. Any way First, this is it people, the last chapter of my most accepted story yet. You my friends have made this a smash hit. It is my first story with 400 reviews. It has already had 100,000 hits. It is on the favored list of 190 people and over 220 alerts. Thank you everyone for the support you have shown. As always, Ollie the Keeper.

03-14-2014-} This second time around was not as successful, but better than I imagined it would be. Thanks to all of you who showed an interest to it. I also would like to apologize for my A/N in the last chapter. That was written three years ago and there is no WBWL story to write. I have started a time travel fic with Luna being the traveler. I am so sorry for this. As always, Ollie the Keeper.

The minute they got home, Harry and the ladies sat with the portraits and told them of the islands, of Pele, and of Luna. Lily tried jumping out of the picture to get to Luna and Harry to hug them. Luna then had a thought, "Mum, if we had a portrait made of the baby, could you move into it like you do dad's and Sirius'?"

"I don't know, since the baby will still be alive. I don't think it will be able to talk ever. Make any noise would be more like it. It should be able to move though, since it is magical."

"Well then, can you and James hug and feel each other in your portrait?"

"Hug yes. Feel, I don't think I would call it feeling, as I would sensing it. You can sense you are hugging, which makes it feel real. Wait, I think I know where you are going with this. I would like for it to work so much. Please give it a try."

"Oh we will won't we Harry?"

"You two lost me at feeling a hug. What are we talking about here?"

"A portrait Harry, of Selena when she is born. If it works, Mum, dad, and Sirius will be able to see her, and maybe even get to hold her."

Sirius can find something funny in anything said, "Does that mean dirty nappies too? Where the hell could we dispose of them? It's not like we have trash collection here. And where would we buy new ones?"

James was next, "If this does work, maybe the same thing could be done for all of our grandchildren. Luna, Hermione may be the smartest witch, but you are the most Emotionally attuned. If it were to work, it would be like we were there with you, to be able to hold our grandchildren, and we could listen to them as they grew up and talk to them about themselves."

Sirius was now worrying, "OH Hell no, an eternity of dirty nappies with no place to toss them. You need to make a portrait of Mount Kilauea so that Pele can reap the benefits of her harvest, while we dispose of the nasty things in the volcano."

"ENOUGH PADS, OR I WILL HIDE YOUR FLEA POWDER ON YOU!" shouted Lily.

"Fine! See if I change any nappies though."

James came up with a brilliant idea, "Lily, if by chance we do have to change nappies, perhaps we could put them in Sirius' portrait so that he could bury them somewhere. That way it could be used as fertilizer for the grass."

Lily watched the expression on Sirius' face as James voiced his idea. He turned four different shades of red before he turned Green. Lily almost fell from view when she doubled over laughing. She stood back up, still laughing when she realized they didn't know when the baby was due.

"Luna, when is the baby due?" asked Lily.

"April 14."

"I can't wait." Lily and James said together.

Molly was sitting at the kitchen table, sipping tea, as she was unable to sleep. She was watching her three youngest sons. Ron had a huge grin on his face, and the twins were in different poses of disgust. "OK, what is going on with you three. Why the long faces Fred, and George, and why the grin Ron?"

Instead of an answer, Ron began a countdown, "Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, time, pay up."

Fred dropped his head to his arms that were crossed on the table, and George just buried his face in his hands. Fred moved his left hand towards Ron, and when he took it away, he left a stack of galleons. George used his right hand to to the same, leaving an exact copy of the coins Fred left. Ron picked up the coins and dropped them singularly in his hand. "Mum, thank you for siding with me on this. Fred and George both bet on either you or Luna having the baby on the first, their birthday. I bet them ten galleons that neither of you would give birth on the first. As you can see you are still here, and Harry floo called ten minutes ago saying that both Luna and Susan are sleeping. They were just paying their debt."

Molly just laughed. She finished her tea, washed her cup, dried it, and put it away. "Well, since the evening entertainment is over, I think I'm off to bed. Good night boys."

She heard the three good nights, as she started climbing the stairs. What she didn't hear was, "Do you two want a chance to get even?"

"Hell yes."

"OK." Ron explained, "I bet mum and Luna have their kids on the same day, I will go so far to say it will be the fourteenth of April. If they both have it the same day, you owe me another ten galleons each. If they both have it on the fourteenth, you double it. If they don't have it on the same day, I owe you ten galleons, and if neither of them have it on the fourteenth, I owe you twenty galleons, deal?"

George asked for clarification on the last part, "Your saying that if they don't deliver on the same day, and neither of the days they do deliver on is the fourteenth, you will pay us 20 galleons each, correct? "

"If, say Luna delivers on the fifteenth, and mum the eighteenth, then I owe you both twenty galleons."

"Deal." They said together.

Harry, Ginny, and Susan took Luna to St. Mungo's to deliver her baby. Her water broke when she got up to use the loo. Since everything was already packed, they went to the hospital, while Hermione and Daphne notified every one what was happening. The twins were in trouble.

As soon as Molly heard the news, she got excited, and wouldn't you know it, Her water broke. Arthur had her in St. Mungo's not long after Luna was there She asked if she could share a room with her Daughter in law, and Luna brightened up at hearing Molly call her daughter. They put a bed beside Luna's, and helped Molly into it. Molly reached out her hand, and Luna took it. They held hands during the whole ordeal, Arthur held Molly's free hand, and Harry held Luna's free hand. Susan rubbed Luna's feet, and Ginny rubbed her mother's. That was all that were allowed into the room. Hermione and Daphne took up Harry's job, and paced the waiting room floor. Xeno and the rest of the Weasleys sat and waited.

Molly's hand comforted Luna, and helped her through the delivery, just as Luna helped Molly through hers. At exactly 3:55 PM they both started pushing to have their child. At 4:35 PM, The two mothers delivered baby girls, Selena Renee Peverell, and Angelica Lynn Weasley.

At 4:40 PM, Fred and George handed Ron twenty galleons each. Neither looked too upset, as they were proud uncles of two beautiful babies. One blond haired baby with bright blue eyes, and one with red hair, and light hazel eyes. A photo of the two was taken lying side by side, and from that, it was sent to a magical artist, who made a portrait for the two mothers. One would hang in the Burrow, and one in Potter Manor.

Harry and Arthur brought the two girls out to the waiting room for the others to see. Harry lost Selena to Daphne who shared her with Hermione, and Arthur lost Angelica to Fleur and Gabrielle. Draco, Ron, Fred, George, Percy, Bill, and Charlie were congratulating the fathers. Verity shared her time with both babies, holding each and loving the feel of the act. Xeno and Arthur shared a hug, both sporting huge smiles.

Ginny and Susan were sitting with the mums, chatting and laughing about different things. Molly reached over and patted Susan's tummy, "Your next little one, soon."

May 27,2000 12:20 PM:

Susan's water broke and Harry had to take her to St. Mungo's with the help of Hermione and Daphne. Luna and Ginny were to contact everyone about Susan. When they finally got Susan into the bed, Daphne had to run to the loo to vomit. She came back looking a little green. One of the interns asked her to lie down so that she could check her. Daphne learned that she too was pregnant. Daphne looked to Hermione and said, "You're next sweetheart."

Hermione just smiled, "I look forward to it Daphne."

Susan's labor was shorter than Luna and Molly's, and at 10:14PM Andrew Smythe Bones was born. Once again, a photo was taken, and sent to the artist for a Portrait.

The Portrait of Selena and Angelica hung next to Lily's portrait, and To the thrill of Lily and James, they were able to pick up the baby in the portrait and hold it. The first time Lily did this, She cried. James was holding Angelica. They couldn't get Sirius to hold either one for the longest time, then one day Lily forced him to hold Selena, and he fell in love with the little one. He was relieved that the portrait baby never needed changed, as the real baby took care of that. As for being fed, when the real baby was fed, then so was the portrait baby. Another weird fact was when the real baby was changed from it's outer clothes. the portraits clothes changed with it. It was the same with Angelica, or Angel as Sirius liked to call her.

When Andrew's portrait was added to the others, James was the first to pick him up. He had black hair and Brown eyes. James was looking at himself. Lily's eyes shown so bright with the three young ones being there with the three. She asked Harry to not add any more, as there were not enough people here to help take care of them, meaning holding them. Harry had to make sure the others wouldn't mind this, and was hurt when they said they did mind. They felt that the first born of each wife should have a portrait made of their child. Lily heard this, and cried for sounding so bad. She didn't think to ask the ladies, and they were right. Harry thought about it for a minute, and brought up a solution. "What if I added four more portraits to your group to help out with the babies? Would that work?"

"That would work, but who would you get?"

"Albus and Ariana Dumbledore, and Amelia and Cynthia Bones."

Susan's eyes brightened at the thought of having both her mother and her aunt's portraits on the wall. They learned that Amelia already had a portrait of herself made for the Ministry which Kingsley proudly presented to Susan, and She had a picture of her mother Cynthia made into a portrait. She also asked if a portrait of her father Raymond could be made. So instead of four, five portraits were hung in what was now known as the hall of portraits in Potter Manor.

Bill and Fleur watched as Dobby played with Victorie. They had noticed a change in Dobby's appearance. He looked younger and more full of life. He laughed along with the young girl, and shared his time evenly between playing and working. He was accepted into the Weasley family as a member, and that was when the change took place. He got even younger when Remus and Tonks brought Teddy Bear over to play with Vickie, Teddy's name for her.

Kreacher and Dobby became friends as well, and would share duties when there was a family get together. They used the pool with the families, traveled with the families, ate with them and visited with them when they went to other magical families.

Dudley and Penny was one of these visits. Penny had a little girl they named Adrienne. Dudley liked to call her Drie. They had become a big part of Harry's life. Dudley had a room built that could only be entered by magic, where he put a floo connection in. Harry and him visited at least twice a week.

Vernon and Petunia stayed in touch with Harry, but were never overly friendly with him. Vernon had worked his way up to being Dudley's assistant, and when Dudley was asked to become the Manager of the Transportation Department, he put Vernon in charge of the stock room. He was warned that if he treated any worker badly, he would be fired, not demoted. Vernon became a fair and kind boss. Not as well liked as Dudley, but liked just the same.

1 September 2015 9:45AM

Harry, Ginny, Hermione, Luna, Susan, and Daphne were standing on platform 9 3/4 Helping their children get on the train For Hogwarts. Two were going into their fourth year, Three their third year and five there first year. Each wife had two children, making ten children for Harry and his wives.

Draco, Ron and Dudley met them there with their wives and eight children. They looked at all the brothers sister and cousins gathered around each other sharing tales of what to expect, and who was the best Professor.

Fred, George, and Bill soon joined in as well as Arthur and Molly.

Harry stood away from everyone for a minute watching all the activity. He had a tear in his eye, as he watched his family interact with everyone. He remembered those long years ago when he made his first trip here to board the train for his first year at the magical school. He thought back to the time when he thought the train was the most beautiful sight he could remember. How it took him to one adventure after another. Every year different, yet the same. Getting into and out of one mishap after another. Harry was joined in his thoughts by Hermione and Ginny.

Ginny said, "What are you thinking of Love?"

"Just taking a walk down memory lane. Remembering each and every adventure. The good thoughts, and the bad. So long ago, yet it seems like yesterday, doesn't it?"

Hermione grabbed his hand and brought it to her lips, "Yes sweetheart it does. And do you know what, I wouldn't change anything that happened, not even the bad parts. Do you know why?"

Harry looked into Hermione's eyes, "Why is it my sweets?"

"Because if they changed, then maybe so would our life. Harry I could not see me with anyone else but you, and Ginny, and Luna, and Daphne, and Susan. Our kids. Would you change anything if it may make things different. If because of that change, you would not be with one or more of us?"

"Hermione, I answered that question many years ago, when Xeno told me that if I had asked the question right, I could have changed everything. Remember what I said? I said I asked the right question, because I got exactly what I wanted."

Luna, Susan, and Daphne joined them as the train pulled out of the station, and they waved by to their children. Yes, Harry had asked the right question. He had four lovely wives, ten beautiful children, More nieces and nephews than he could count. Friends he could honestly say he wouldn't trade for all the tea in China.

He had his parents there to talk to when he needed to. They had children there to love as their own, with friends to help out. No, Harry had no complaints about his life what so ever.

He kissed each of his wives then took them all out to lunch. He loved showing off his beautiful wives when ever he got the chance.

No, he would not give this up. To Harry, he lived the perfect life, with the perfect wives, perfect children, well maybe not perfect, as James and Sirius did tend to get into a lot of trouble. Thank goodness for Remus to keep them straight. So, maybe it wasn't a perfect life after all. Still, not one he wished to trade for anything. It was just the way he liked it. Controlled chaos.

End Note: There you have it my friends. I hope you enjoyed it. I know I didn't give out all the names, but I didn't need the headache. Please forgive me for that. It seems that the choice for my next story is the Time travel tale. I don't know when I will start it, so if you haven't got me on author's alert, you may want to do that. Once again thank you all for making this story, one to remember. As always, Keeperoliver.
