Sadly
The Masterhead's Office
"Hewwo p'ffesows," the two troublemaking boys said, smiling up at Albus and Minerva.
Chuckling and shaking his head, the long bearded wizard replied, "Why hello boys, I see you have gotten dressed. You both look quite smart if I do say so myself. Are you ready to head to my office?"
"Yes," Severus started nodding.
"We-"
"Are-"
"P'ffesow," Harry and Severus finished.
"Umm, boys, if I may ask, which of you are Harry and which is Severus? I'm awfully confused, seeing as you both look quite similar.
The identical boys grinned at each other and, without their lisps, said, "I'm Sevry," the one in the red, "and I'm Harrus," finished the one in the green.
"Oh dear," was heard from Professor McGonagall as Professor Dumbledore smiled with a twinkle in his eye and nodded his approval.
"It seems we have another pair of pranksters on our hands my dear professor. Now boys, shall we head up?" Albus said, motioning to the doors.
The two little boys answered his question by each grabbing a professor's hand, 'Sevry' to Minerva's and Harrus to Albus's.
Shaking her head, the Scottish teacher sighed, "I guess we are off."
Twenty minutes later saw this little group at the base of the Headmaster's tower.
"Now my boys, would you like to say the password?" Albus asked the two boys.
They both nodded. Why wouldn't they want to say such a weird and funny word that they had learned while they trotted along beside the two grownups. They had learned a lot while making their way up from the dungeon. Things like 'there's a secret passage way behind that knight' and 'the portraits can talk move and go from painting to painting' and by far the best was meeting Peeves, the poltergeist, who, after getting their names, pledged his long servitude to the two pranksters to be. This had given Minerva just a few more silver hairs.
"Razzles!" the two boys said in union, noticeably without their adorable lisps.
The gargoyle just tilted its head to one side for a second, pointed at the two, looked at the headmaster a bit confused before just shaking its head and moving out of the way. Albus Dumbledore was by far the oddest man to inhabit the tower.
"He moves to!" Sevry and Harrus exclaimed, waving at the gargoyle, which waved back, before hopping on the moving staircase.
At the top, Dumbledore pushed open the heavy wooden door to his spacious office and the group stepped in. All the instruments that lined the walls whirled and buzzed and whistled and puffed. On his perch, Fawkes twittered a light tune that made the two seemingly little boys applauded.
"Is-" Harrus asked.
"This-" Sevry went on.
"The Masterhead's office?" they finished as one, turning to the adults that were both by the big oak desk beside Fawkes' perch.
The headmaster chuckled and the transfiguration professor gave them a warm smile.
"Yes, it is," Albus and Minerva replied simultaneously, both their eyes twinkling merrily.
"Hey! You did what we do!" the two dark haired boys cried happily.
"It seems so, and may I just say, it seems you both are losing that lisp of your's," the old wizard noted.
"Mhmm," Harrus agreed.
"Yep we did," Sevry went on.
"We only really had it because the potion had just hit us and our mouths couldn't wrap around the different sounds as well," Harrus started to explain.
"Also it didn't help that we were also quite distraught and frightened," Sevry added.
"But we're fine now," the finished.
"That's good to know. It seems that these two are progressing at the same rate Albus. I wonder, since they were deaged, even if it wasn't their minds, might they actually be four year olds?" Minerva suddenly asked.
"How about we bring Madam Pomfrey up from the hospital wing to do a quick check up? She would be much better suited to ask this question to," Albus replied, moving over to the floo.
Taking a pinch of floo powder, he tossed it in saying 'Hospital Wing'.
At the other end, the school's nurse went over to the fire place to see the headmaster's head in it.
"What can I do for you Albus?" she asked, cutting right to the chase.
"Hello Madam Pomfrey. Professor McGonagall and I were wondering if you could step through to my office as to help us out with a situation that would be better fit for someone of your field to see to," the headmaster replied.
"Seeing as I do not have any patients at the moment, I will come through," she said before stepping through the green flames.
"Though I do expect to be seeing Harry and Severus soon, heaven only knows what they were getting into in that dungeon," she finished after she exited.
Turning towards the other witch, Poppy spotted the two boys standing there petting the phoenix. "Well I see that I won't be waiting any longer," she said as the boys both said, "Hi Poppy."
"Hello boys," the nurse greeted the two boys, "Would either of you like to explain to me why you are both deaged to four? And why you're each wearing the shirt that you are wearing?"
"Harry was making a potion and was bottling it up when Severus walked in and the door slammed shut behind him," the boy in the green shirt said.
"And because of the little breeze that the door created, a little bit of the ingredients from the package that Severus was holding drifted into the tiny bit of potion at the bottom of Harry's cauldron," the boy in the red stated.
"They only had enough time to dive out of the way, but some of the gloopy potion got into their hair and they were deaged. Then professors McGonagall and Dumbledore found us and got us cleaned up," continued the previous boys counterpart.
"At which point we decided to change out names to Sevry," he pointed to himself, "And Harrus," he pointed to the boy in green.
With the end of the explanation, the two boys beamed up at the nurse and she smiled knowingly at them, knowing exactly which boy was who. "Oh you two are going to give everyone in this castle a heart attack," Poppy said, corralling the boys into chairs before waving her wand and casting diagnosing spells on them.
"Well they are both healthy, there are no side effects from the potions except for the fact that they are physically younger now. Also, as they grow, either with or without an aging potion, they will grow like normal healthy boys, and will not have any of the health problems they may have had before," Madam Pomfrey announced, turning to the two professors in the room, both of which sighs of relief could be heard coming from.
"That is a very good thing to hear, thank you Poppy. Do you, by any chance, have the aging potion that you spoke of? If you don't, I believe I could call in a favour or two to get them," Professor Dumbledore asked the mediwitch.
"I do, but it would only be safe to be administered once every three weeks, and the first dose would age them about three years and consecutively after that. It would take twelve weeks for them both be aged up to sixteen, and by then after another three weeks, Severus would be able to take a dose that would age him the rest of the way, if he so chooses," explained the school's nurse to the headmaster.
"But he gets to choose right?" the twins said, not giving away which boy was the older man.
"I don't see why not, both of you are mature enough to choose what age you would like to be," Minerva replied, both she and Poppy pinned Albus with a star that said 'don't even think about making either of these sweet boys do anything they do not wish to do'.
"Oh cool!" the two boys cheered, doing an elaborate handshake.
"Yes, indeed it is. Now, what are we going to do with you boys in the mean time? We cannot just get you roam around until you are re-aged," the old wizard said, smiling and sitting down in his desk chair and conjuring two plush chairs for the witches in the room.
"We could stay with Mione and Pansy!" Sevry and Harrus exclaimed together.
"Ahh yes, and we could call up Messers Weasley and Malfoy as well," Albus offered.
"Man-" one boy said.
"Do we-" the other boy said.
"Have to?" the first boy finished, both slumping lower in their chairs.
"What on Earth is wrong, boys?" Professor McGonagall asked as Madam Pomfrey hid a snort at the ludicrous idea.
"It's just," Harrus started.
"Whenever they are in the same room," Sevry continued.
"They always argue," Harrus sighed out.
"And we're just SO tired of them being thick headed," both boys said, shaking their heads at the thought of passed occurrences.
"As it is, we should still call them up to see what can be worked out," Albus said.
"Okay, you brought it upon yourselves," muttered the twin like boys.
Next chapter will be up today or tomorrow.
