Chapter 11.)

Harry was talking to Nessie when the children chose to 'attack' Paul. He was cut off mid sentence by his scream. "So, your children are part shapeshifter, part vampire, and part human? Doesn't that make it- AACKK"

Everyone whipped around to face where the noise had come from. The sight in front of them was one that was seared into their brains. Paul Lahote, the badass wolf, the hot-headed man, was hanging upside down and looked like he was being ticked as his body began to morph. He looked to be growing tentacles and his skin was turning pink. His hair grew longer, and it flashed through each color of the rainbow. Those were the younger kids. Teddy, the eldest child. The werewolf child, smirked up at Paul. His eyes flashed a brilliant amber, that burned with power. It was close to a fullmoon. "If you ever so much as make Aunt Mione frown, I will tear your genitalia off and then I will purposely sit in your room on a full moon." He said all this with a big smile on his face.

Everyone was sitting silently, as Paul seemed to shrink in on himself. They coud basically hear the fear coming off him. Teddy inched closer. "And what my younger sibings are doing to you, is nothing compared to what they can do to you. Heed the warning." They watched as Teddy flicked his wand and Paul dropped to the ground and Teddy waved his siblings to walk towards the fire.

All of a sudden Hermione and Harry were laughing. Laughing so hard they fell off their logs and were rolling in the leaves and sticks. The Vampires were frozen in their spot, trying not to join them on the floor. All except Jasper, Edward, and Alice managed. Jasper because he could feel everyone's emotions, Alice because she saw what was going to happen, and Edward because he could read almost everyone's thoughts on what just happened. Luna was leaning against Neville, and her shoulders were shaking in laughter.

It had been the funniest thing anyone, except Paul who was frightened, had ever seen. It took a few hours for everyone to calm down, and settle around the fire again. Telling stories of the 'good' times. For the magic-users it was either their childhood or early school years, and for the mundane and immortal, it was whenever they wanted.

Third Person POV

After that night several things began to shift, knowingly and unknowingly. The first thing to happen was that Teddy had finally turned into his wolf form. Everyone had been at the Farm House on the night of the Full Moon. They'd been worried about Teddy, because he had been sick and grouchy all day, nearly snarling at anyone who neared him- except for Hadrian and Lily. Luna was in her room, on orders of complete bed rest, when the shift started to occur. Hadrian had shooed his daughter into her room. After she was safely locked away, and the other easily harmed 'Humans' were in their rooms behind safety charms, Hadrian hefted his eldest child and ran for the outside.

Several of the wolves followed after them, some stayed near the house to give extra protection. Hadrian had looked as if he was in pain just watching his child go through his first transformation, while Jasper was standing as still as a statue as the child's pain reverberated through his entire being. Everyone heard the child whimper as Hadrian lowered him to the floor. "Dad...please don't leave..stay please...?"

He lowered himself into a kneeling position. His eyes softed and his shoulders fell into him. "Of course, Ted. I'll always be here. Relax, cub." As Hadrian ran his hand through his child's hair, the boy tried to calm himself and the whimpers started to die down, only to be replaced by snapping and reforming bones. Hadrian backed away from the child and shifted into his animagus form. As soon as the child shifted for the first, everyone could tell the 'wolf' was in control and not Teddy.

Jacob, Paul, and Leah watched as the werewolf circle and stalked Harry's animagus form. On Harry's part, he was watching the tiny werewolf stalk him. He felt the distinct instinct to run, and immediately squashed. He needn't to put the werewolf in its place. He watched as it leapt at his rightside, and immediately rolled across the floor, a snarl ripping its way through his teeth. The other wolves watched in a trance. This was their friend, Hadrian, facing off against his own son, Teddy. Right now, they could all see the hard glint in Hadrian's eyes. They watched in stunned surprise as the bigger wolf tackled the werewolf, with a growl. A few yelps later, as the werewolf raked it's sharp paws down Hadrian's stomach, Hadrian had pinned the werewolf down.

Hadrian growled loudly, startling the young werewolf. The werewolf watched his prey turn into his hunter. The wolf before him was covered in its blood and its eyes were glowing at it. Then the wolf was on top of the werewolf, biting the it's neck until the werewolf stopped fighting recognizing the bigger wolf as its Alpha. It curled up in a ball afterwards and slept. Hadrian's eyes never left the tiny werewolf's body until the next morning. Which he shifted and healed himself immediately and then went about healing his godson.

The next thing to happen, was Leah and Harry had gotten closer. After the first few dates, Hadrian decided that he wanted to see how his children got along with his Leah. So he took his three children after a day of school, into the woods for a human nature hike- he had invited Leah to join them. He had stood back as Leah greeted each of his kids with hugs and jokes. He smirked, and immediately joined them.

As they walked through the woods in random directions, Leah would regale the children with stories of her time in these woods. As a child and even as a wolf. The children were good listeners, and even asked questions. He could see the spark in his daughter's eyes as she was told about climbing trees and pranking siblings. He could hear the childlike glee emmanating from Teddy's tone as he asked if she really bit Paul for being a wanker. Hadrian scolded him for his languaage, but Leah just confirmed his question. And James hadn't let go of her arm since she stopped him from slipping down a steep hill. His children seemed to like her, and he could feel himself falling for her even more.

And the final change that had started to happen unknowingly, was that Hermione's sleepless nights and endless tears, seemed to be slwoly fading. Paul hadn't crowded her, but had helped her with her daughter- who seemed to really like the hot-tempered wolf, and would constantly tease him. She had even pranked him a few times, and he had gotten her back several times in return. He had spent very few days in Hermione's company but had come to cherish the beautiful brunette who still seemed to struggle with a normal everyday life. He watched her struggle, and most days he let her work it out herself, other days he would go and help her as much as possible.

The last thing that happened was Luna was now extremely close to her due date. Neville was always doting on her, and pampering her swollen and aching body. The kids were always crafting something with the elder wolves and vampires, to gift the child. And Harry and Hermione were painting the new nursery, and making sure it was connected to Neville and Luna's room. The house was always filled with an anticipatory and joyful mood, and everyone who visited could feel it.

A/N: My apologies for these very short updates. I've had some major changes happening around my normal, everyday life. I hope you enjoy.
