Hey guys, here's the next chapter like I told you I would try to get up. I hope you like it, :) Until the next time...


Meanwhile at Number 12 Severus, Remus and Tonks were sitting at the table drinking their tea and coffee Tonks grinned and smiled ''Here you go guys, these are from Mione and Harry.''

Severus was stunned he hadn't expected a present but took it anyway, he noticed it was wrapped in silver and had a green ribbon around it he also noticed that Remus has Gold and Red while Tonks had Yellow and Black.

Remus smiled ''What have she got you Tonks?''

Tonks shrugged and opened the present and gasped as she took the present out of the box.

Remus looked and noticed the tears ''What's wrong?''

Tonks lifted the lovely silver frame up that had Ohana and underneath the Inscription Ohana means family and family means no body get's left behind or forgotten and inside was eight magical pictures, The first one was of both Andromeda and Ted Tonks beaming while Andy held her hand over her swollen stomach.

The second one was a picture of her parents holding her in their lap, one with her in her robes for her first day in Hogwarts and Graduation day, along with another of her in the Ministry after receiving her certificate to say she was now an Auror and the last two were one of her with each parent before the war had started properly and had them killed.

''How?'' Tonks was stunned.

Remus shook his head ''I don't know but why don't you have a look at the note''

Tonks looked down and picked the letter up and began to read it out

Tonks, Happy Christmas,

I know your probably wondering where and how I got the pictures? well let's just say lots of research, memories, Pensives, and Sirius, he had a few photo's also, so now you can have memories of Happy times.

Love Hermione xx

Tonks got her hand and swiped away the tears as she placed the letter down in front of her.

Remus smiled ''I remember that now, she had come to me asking me all about your parents and what Andy was like.''

''I can't believe it? I mean after all this time and when the house was attacked everything was destroyed''

''Tonks this is Hermione were talking about if anyone could find something it would be her'' Remus said softly

Tonks nodded ''What about you Severus''

Severus shrugged ''I do not know yet, I have no idea what she could have gotten me or why she would''

Remus grinned a little at that before schooling his features ''Well open it and find out! besides you know she likes and cares for you Severus, hell she wouldn't' have stood up for you if she didn't' like you''

Severus scowled ''Why don't' you open yours then Wolf.''

Remus grinned ''Gladly'' Remus opened his wrapping paper and grinned when he pulled out a voucher for a years supply of chocolate from Honeydukes he loved his chocolate and many people knew he had a sweet tooth he was pleased with that.

''She got me an Unlimited Years supply voucher for Honeydukes.'' Remus said smiling making Tonks laugh and Severus shake his head.

Tonks laughed and shook her head ''What else?'' as she noticed a note and something else.

Remus frowned ''Don't know'' he slowly picked up the letter and read it

Merry Christmas Remus,

Now I hope you enjoy your unlimited supply for Honey Dukes I just knew it would be perfect for you. Now the other part is important.

I have been researching as you know for quite some time, but what you don't know is that I may have found a lead to cure Lycanthropy, or possibly found something that will stop you from changing at all during the full moon.

I Know you curl up usually however I have many ideas to help you. However I want and need you to keep this a secret between us I'll also need you so I can take bloods and test my theory's if that's ok? you can let me know when where back from Christmas.

Love Hermione x

Remus was stunned when he read the letter he felt like he wanted to cry he was so grateful to her, and he knew deep down that she must be close for she wouldn't' have mentioned it to him as she wasn't' like that but he wouldn't' get his hopes up when he looked up and saw both Tonks and Severus looking at him he cleared his throat ''She says to enjoy my Chocolate and that she wishes me a good Christmas, and you know the usual''

Tonks and Severus just nodded ''Ok what else then''

Remus looked and noticed a book one he had read when he was younger as he opened it he froze again and choked back a sob

''Remus?'' Tonks said concerned

Remus looked up and pulled out the little photo he had it was a picture of him with his parents when he was just seven before he had been attacked by Greyback and lost his parents, He was stunned he hadn't had any pictures for all these years loosing everything in the house ''It's a picture of me and my p..parents'' he slowly handed the picture over allowing them to see.

''I was Seven, it was before Greyback changed me and killed my parents. I thought I'd lost them when the house was ruined.'' Remus said softly.

Tonks whistled ''Wowcher, how does she do these things?''

Remus shook his head slowly as he continued to stare at the picture he closed his eyes thanking her mentally.

''What is the book?''

''Another thing I loved and lost, it's an old Muggle story it's called the prince and the pauper, I used to love it when I was a little boy, My mother would read it to me and then I used to read it, but it looks like Hermione managed to find another copy which surprises me as they are rare and hard to find since there so old.''

Severus nodded ''I read that book once I was about eight at the time''

Remus nodded ''It was my favourite book I was devastated when I lost it not forgetting all photo's and stuff''

Severus nodded along with Tonks

''Anyway enough about me, what have she gotten you''

Severus sighed and opened his present he was surprised but grinned only Hermione would buy him something he would like and use he pulled out a very nice set of crystal viles that had a snake wrapped around them, while the teeth dug into the stopper it was beautiful it also had his initials engraved on the front he also had a set of crystal stirring rods.

''Whoa there nice Severus''

Severus nodded ''Yes, they are also rare and not only are they unbreakable but they are preserving and keep potions protected and fresh no matter what, there protected from spell fire as well, the same with the rods''

He then looked at the other gift she had gotten him a rather nice mortal and pestle grinder ''And she's gotten me a Mortal and pestle grinder I have been needing a decent one for quite some time.''

He too had gotten a note wishing him a happy Christmas when he noticed an owl land in front of them he frowned for a moment until he remembered who the Owl belonged too.

''Crystal! hey girl what's that you got'' Tonks said as she reached out and gave the owl a stoke and some bacon before removing the letters she looked up and saw they were each written to the three of them and what looked like child's writing ''Remus, Severus these are for you guys''

Tonks then looked at the Owl ''Are you to await a reply?''

Crystal just hooted and bobbed her head up and down before flying out of the window to return back home

''Oh guess not then''

Remus opened the letter first and smiled ''It's from Hermione's children by the looks of it''

''Oh what does it say'' Tonks asked smiling

Remus cleared his throat and began to read...

Dear Mr Lupin.

My Mum say's I can call you by your name, but I won't because it's rude and you haven't given me permission to use your name yet.

I just wanted to thank you for my present I was really happy with my vouchers, Mum told me and my sister that we would be moving in with her and Uncle Harry and that I would need some Wizarding clothes I'm so excited! but Mum said we could write to thank you for our gifts.

So Thank you for our Present Mr Lupin and we hope you have a Happy Christmas

From Matthew and Lyra Granger

Remus chuckled at the letter you could tell that they were Hermione's children they were very polite he was surprised by how neat and grown up the letter almost sounded then again he knew he shouldn't have been shocked. ''What does your letter say Severus''

Severus opened the letter and read the contents.

Dear Severus,

Merry Christmas and Thank you so, so much for our Cauldron and ingredients Mum was shocked at first but she soon nodded and said that it was a nice choice, but don't worry I'll be careful. Lyra wouldn't let me be stupid nor would mum anyway so there's nothing to worry about.

I also want to thank you and Lyra want's to thank you for not only our presents but for helping our Mummy and Uncle Harry with the Snake Man.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

From Lyra and Matthew.

''Oh they've just thanked me for the Potions kit I got them both and wished me a Merry Christmas''

Tonks nodded as she read through her contents it was the same as both Remus and Severus's she couldn't' help but smile she couldn't wait to meet the twins in person ''I can't wait to meet the twins.''

Remus chuckled ''Me either''

Severus shook his head ''Oh I'm sure it won't be boring nor quiet around here again.''

''What time are we expected at the mad house'' Severus sneered he may like some of the Weasley's but Ronald and Ginerva he did not like.
