Chapter 35

It had been a very long three days since the Bonding Reception. There had been lots of time spent with the Auror department giving statements and making sure the proper families were notified. There had been eleven guests injured and three killed in the battle. All of the Death Eaters including Voldemort were gone, only Rudolphus LeStrange was left alive. He was in the holding cells at the ministry. He was cooperating and providing information to the DMLE.

SIrius and Mya stepped through the floo in Mya's quarters at Hogwarts. Both were beyond exhausted and ready for some peace and quiet. The house elves sent up a light supper as they rested on the couch. After preparing for bed they were both asleep before their heads hit their pillows.

"Mya, Mya I'm over here." a soft voice said. Mya thought she was dreaming but everything seemed so real.

"Who's there?" she asked.

"It's Hermione, I told you I would be there when you were ready." Hermione stepped closer to Mya. She had a peaceful smile on her face, that told Mya everything was going to be ok.

"You have done a remarkable job. Sirius is happy, you have two wonderful boys and a great extended family. You have helped rid the world of a hideous evil and open the eyes of a generation to the racists behavior that have gone on for far too long." Hermione said. "I am grateful you could do what I could not. There are some others that would like to speak to you."

As Mya was listening to Hermione, others walked up to her.

"Thank you for giving our son the loving family he deserved." sIghed Lily Potter, as she threw her arms around Mya. James came up and lightly kissed her on the cheek, giving her a smile of gratitude.

Bellatrix LeStrange walked up next and hugged her. " Please tell them I was not in my right mind. The Dark Lord had such a hold on my mind and magic I was a rabid beast. I hurt so many." Bella stated as she cried. "Tell Rudolphus I said thank you for setting me free."

Mya spoke to others who wanted to thank her and her family and friends for all they had done. The last to approach her was a small little girl with dark, curly hair and grey blue eyes. She tugged on the hem of Mya's pajama top to get her attention.

"Hi, is there someone you would like for me to talk to?" Mya asked the little girl. The girl motioned for her to bend down to the girl's level.

"Mommy, tell daddy and my bubbies I can't wait to meet them." She then leaned over and placed a kiss on Mya's cheek.

Mya woke up with a start and sat straight up in the bed. Sirius woke suddenly with her abrupt movements. "What's wrong Mya?" he asked, worried that something bad had happened.

"Nothing my love, just our daughter said to tell you and the boys she can't wait to see you." Mya laid back down and cuddled up into Sirus side and went to sleep.
