-Quidditch World Cup, 1994-
"This is amazing!" Lizzie said, eyes brighten in excitement.
"I'm just glad that I could come. Never thought my parents would allow me cause of my summer lessons," said Sora.
"Too bad the others couldn't come," said Draco. "Sky, Dan and Sally would've loved to see this ultimate Quidditch match between Ireland and Bulgaria. Dan and Sky bet on Ireland while Sally bet on Bulgaria."
Harry sighed, "Can't you guys just sit and enjoy the game without betting?"
"Nope!" replied Draco and Lizzie. Harry made an annoyed look while Sora giggled.
"Alright, shall we get going?" Lily said, carrying her daughter Eileen.
Grinning, Draco and Lizzie dashed out from the tent which made Severus go after them. Harry and Sora were holding hands, walking by Lily's side while Eileen was looking around.
Their uncle gave them Ministry seats so they could see the entire field and it had an 'all you can eat' buffet table. The twins and the girls went over to the buffet table to see what they are offering. Sora was looking around, but failed to notice someone was standing nearby. She bumped into him and both fell to the floor.
"Bloody hell! Watch where you're going!"
"How rude! Didn't your mother taught you anything about being a gentleman?" Sora snapped before getting up from the floor. She looked down to see a boy with dark red hair and hazel eyes with glasses, but on his cheek was a 'V' shape scar.
"…a couple of times – alright! I'm sorry for yelling at you, um…who are you?"
"Sora Lexine, an oversea student from Salem Academy."
"Salem Academy?! As the exclusive magical boarding school for special witches and wizards in America?! That academy?!"
"The very same," replied Sora.
"Sorry for my rudeness, my lady. I was mad at the staff for not getting my order in on time – Oh! My name is Alexander Potter. If you like, I can introduce you to my family and friends."
Sora shook her head and was about to reply when Harry walked next to her. "There you are. The match is about to begin…who's this?"
"Someone that I bumped into," replied Sora, grabbing Harry's arm, "Let's go."
"Wait!" Alex said, grabbing Sora's hand. Harry glared at him but Alex ignored him, "Why don't you watch the match with me? I'm sure your parent's wouldn't mind."
Harry pulled Alex's hand away from Sora and stepped in front of her. He narrowed his eyes, "Sorry, but she's with my family and her parents told her not to stray from me at all times. Now if you would excuse us."
Alex blinked his eyes before smirking, "I see, an overprotective best friend, huh? Don't worry mate, she'll be fine. I'm the Boy-Who-Lived, after all."
Harry and Sora looked at each other before looking over at a smug looking Alex. Harry lifts his eyebrow, "And how's that supposed to impress us?"
Alex smug look turned into a furious one, "I was the one that defeated You-Know-Who when I was just a baby! I saved everyone in the wizarding world from a dangerous dark wizard!"
"But we don't live here," stated Sora, innocently. "So this dark wizard is not our concern. Besides, he's gone, right? So why remind everyone about it? Do you suspect us to praise you or something, you spoiled boy?"
"Come on, let's go," said Harry, placing his hand on Sora's shoulder.
"Wait! Let her decide where she wants to go," snapped Alex. Harry was about to snap back when he saw his father heading towards them.
"There you are, son. Let's go, the match is about to begin."
That's when another man with dark brown hair and hazel eyes came to them. He walked over to Alex, "There you are kiddo. I was getting worried that you got lost in the crowd."
"Sorry dad. I invited Sora to sit with us, but he's not allowing her," said Alex, pointing to Harry. The moment the two older men looked at each other, the air becomes tense.
"Snape! / Potter!"
"I should've known that you and your arrogant brat would be here," sneered Severus, pushing his son and Sora away from his childhood enemy.
"Can't say the same thing about you," James sneered. "I see your brat inherited your clinginess. Tell me young lady, do you wish to sit with us? We have the best seats where you can practically see the whole field."
"I'm sorry sir, but as Harry told your son, I cannot stray away from Harry's parents," answered Sora.
Severus crossed his arms, "Now if you would excuse us, we have a match to watch."
"I'm watching you…Snape," warned James.
Severus guided his son and Sora back to their seats. Lily felt her husband's negative aura, "Are you alright, Sev?"
"Tell you after the game," replied Severus, softly. Lily nodded as the match started.
After the game, the Snape's and the girls return back to their tents. Severus told Lily who he saw before the match begins and both agreed it was time to tell the boys.
"Harry, the boy and the man you saw was James Potter and his son, Alexander," said Lily.
"In 1981 on Halloween, a dark wizard named Voldemort attacked the Potter's home. He planned to kill one of the Potter twins, but for some odd reason when he casted the Killing curse, it rebounded and destroyed him instead. The rebound curse left marks on the twins, but Alexander was declared the savior, and everyone is calling him the Boy-Who-Lived," said Severus.
Harry frowned, "Okay, make sense why Alex was upset when we didn't react upon hearing his…title. But, why are you telling us this?"
"Because…Draco isn't your twin, it's…Alex," replied Lily. Harry's eyes widened while Draco and the girls gasped. Lily looked down at her hands, "I married James Potter after graduating from Hogwarts and a year later, I gave birth to Alexander and you, Harry. But during that time, there was a war and we had to go into hiding to keep you two safe when we learned about the prophecy."
"And what did the prophecy say?" Lizzie asked.
"It states that a child will be born at the end of July and will be the downfall of Voldemort," replied Severus.
"And Alex and Harry are born…in July?" Sora said.
Lily nodded, "July 31st. Alex was born at 11:55pm and Harry was born at 11:59pm."
"But if Harry was born close to the end of July," Sora bit her lip, nervously, "Then, that means he'd be the perfect candidate."
"I thought so as well, Sora, but when we returned after the alarms were set off…the babysitter dead and the twins crying," Lily took a deep breath, "Albus, the Headmaster of Hogwarts, checked the twins and saw Alex had a 'V' scar on his cheek while Harry had a lightning scar on his forehead. Albus believed it was Alex who vanished Voldemort and declared him the savior, but after that night…" Lily stopped for a moment before continuing, "After that night, James…James started acting differently towards you Harry. At first, he just ignored you, but then he-he started…to-to yell…snap…calling you these horrible names, and…and…oh, Merlin!"
Harry was starting to get flashbacks of a tall angry man shouting at him, calling him names, and hitting him hard while Sora had tears running down her eyes. Draco and Lizzie were furious what Harry's biological father did to Harry.
After Severus calmed Lily down, she continued, "I couldn't stand it any longer so I packed up our things and went to my parents in the muggle world…"
After an hour, Lily told everything what happen, "…and now, here we are. You and Draco are magically bonded and I'm married to my soul-mate, but I left Alex behind. I couldn't raise him along with you, Harry…and the results of it, Alex is just like his father…"
"Yes, Potter did an excellent job raising an arrogant brat," Severus sneered before sighing. "That boy was suspecting Sora to go with him and be fascinated by his 'hero' deeds."
"As if I want to be around with that rotten boy," Sora made a disgust face. Lizzie giggled while Harry gave a small kiss on Sora's cheek.
"So, if Harry's original twin was Alex and you two are my adopted parents, who are my biological parents?" Draco asked.
"Lucius Malfoy and Narcissa Black. They named me your godfather when you were born," replied Severus.
"What happened to them?" Draco asked.
Severus told his son the attack on Malfoy Manor when he was a toddler. "Now your father is in Azkaban while your mother is in a magical coma at St. Mungo's hospital."
Harry and Draco looked at each other.
Lily smiled, "Why don't you four head to bed? It's…been a stressful day for all of us."
Going to the twins' room, Harry dropped down to his bed while Draco sat next to him. The younger twin murmured, "I can't believe my biological father…hates me."
"Just ignore that bastard," said Lizzie, angrily.
"That's right," Sora pulled Harry from his bed and gave him a hug, "If he cannot see how a wonderful person you are, then he's not worth it."
Harry smiled, when suddenly, there was a loud bang and screaming coming from outside. Rushing to their room was Severus and Lily, who was holding a crying Eileen.
"What's going on, mom?" Harry asked.
"Death Eater riot," replied Lily, seriously.
"Quick, gather around me!" Severus said, pulling out a gold pendent. The twins and the girls were around Severus while Lily, still holding Eileen went to Draco's side. That's when Severus activated the portkey inside of the pendent where they apparated into a worn out living room.
"Where…are we?" Lizzie asked, looking around.
"In my mother's ancestor's manor," replied Severus. He took out small suitcases, resizing them to their original size. "I'm going to send a message to Mathew, telling him what happened. Your mother and I will get the plane tickets back to Salem."
"Hopefully, we'll be back home by the end of the week," said Lily, transforming a worn out couch into a bed and placed her daughter on it. "Why don't you all get some sleep?"
The teens nodded before digging around their suitcases and took out their sleeping bags. They decided to sleep near the fireplace while Severus went to the other side of the bed with Lily and Eileen who was sleeping in the middle.
By early morning, Severus sent a magical message to Evans' Manor when he spotted an owl at the window. He opened the window and flew in the owl with a message. Severus took the parchment and read the message as the owl flew out of the window. He had a scowl look on his face before heading back to the living room.
Severus saw Harry and Lily were awake while Eileen, Draco, Lizzie and Sora were still asleep. "Mind waking up the others, son?" he asked.
Harry nodded before tapping softly at Sora while Severus went over to his wife. Silently, he handed her the message which she read before shaking her head.
"That meddling…" Lily sighed, "Who's going to watch the children?"
"The twins and the girls are old enough to watch Eileen," said Severus.
"Alright, let's…" Lily was interrupted from a scream. She and Severus turned around to see Draco rubbing his neck while Lizzie was smiling, sheepishly.
"Well, that's one way to wake him," murmured Harry while Sora was rubbing her eyes.
"But it freaking hurt!" Draco snapped before looking at Lizzie, "You really need to control that blood craving of yours, Liz!"
"Oh, but I can't help it!" said Lizzie, sticking out her tongue. Playing with her Rosario, "Your blood smells like sweet candy and it's calling out to me!"
Draco pouted, "…considering buying a garlic necklace now."
Lizzie had a horrified look on her face.
"Draco, it's not her fault," scolded Lily, lightly. "Vampires have different blood cravings. She can't help it that it's your blood she's so fond of."
"Right…sorry Liz," said Draco, softly as Lizzie sigh in relief.
"Well then, we'll be going to a pub called the Leaky Cauldron," said Severus. Everyone was packing up their sleeping bags and change of clothes before Lily shrank their suitcases again. "The five of you will be staying there while Lily and I will be attending an important meeting. We'll return as soon as we can, any questions?"
"Why can't we stay here?" Sora asked.
Severus shook his head, "My mother was disowned when she married my father who everyone believed to be a muggle, a no-maj. I don't have ownership as far as I know."
"Mm, maybe you do. I mean you haven't gotten any letters from Britain since we moved. Only the school you work at," said Lily.
"I'll have to check then," said Severus then addressing to the teens. "Any more questions?"
"Who's in charge?" Draco asked, quickly.
Severus smirked, "Harry. Sorry Draco, but you lost your authority when you recklessly went to the forest at Evans' Manor when your uncle told you not to. You even dragged your young cousin to go with you."
Draco glared, "Sally's the one that dared me! It was her fault!"
"That's enough," Severus looked at Harry, "You can visit Britain's magical shopping center, Diagon Alley. Ask Tom, the caretaker of the pub where the entrance is at. Here, some galleons in case you want to buy something there."
Harry took the money pouch and put it in his pocket.
"Girls, you'll be side-apparating with me and the boys go with Severus," said Lily.
The teens nodded before apparating out from the worn-out living room to a muggle alley street. They walked out from the alley and found a pub with a sign that read 'The Leaky Cauldron'. They walked in to see someone cleaning the tables, magically while someone was reading a newspaper and stirring a spoon, magically.
Severus walked over to Tom, "Are there any rooms available?"
"Let me see – Ah! There're two rooms left," replied Tom. "It's quite a busy month, sir."
"That's fine. Book those rooms for us. We'll be staying for about three days," said Severus.
"Three days, you say," murmured Tom, looking at a parchment. "That will be 25 galleons, sir."
After paying, Severus grabbed the keys and handed one to Harry. The twins and the girls went to their rooms while Severus, Lily and Eileen's were across from them. As the teens were getting settled, Lily came inside the room.
"Be careful," warned Lily. She placed the Prince pendent around Draco's neck, "If anything happens, activate the portkey inside in this pendent. It will take you back to Prince Manor. To activate it, say 'Loyalty', got it?"
The twins and the girls nodded.
Lily gave young Eileen to Harry, "Watch your sister. We'll see you all later."
