"Hermione, Hermione wake up," she opened her eyes to reveal one Frederick Weasley who was lying down next to her. She made an ugly face at the thought of getting out of this comfortable bed and turned her head to the left. On the other side, she opened her eyes to reveal one George Weasley who smiled sweetly at her, "Don't listen to the bad man, stay in bed with us forever." She smiled and drew him close for a kiss.

She and George kissed sweetly until he scrunched his eyebrows together and moved his hands to get something between his back and the bed to reveal a book. "You know when I imagined you finally sleeping in our bed, I thought it would be less ... educational."

Hermione looked around to see that indeed most of the bed and the floor was covered in Dark Magic books. "Let's just let Harry get captured and maybe we can finally get you to ourselves. He is a smart chap, he'll escape," Fred said while Hermione shivers at his hands beneath her shirt and on her waist.

A beep on the clock makes all three of them look at the clock when George sighs, "I hate to side with the less handsome twin but if you don't get out to meet Moody then he will Apparate here, and I don't want to relive that experience." Fred and Hermione shudder at the incident 2 weeks ago when she took too long to get to their meeting that he believed her to be in danger and so he blasted into the twins' flat only to see her attempting to get rid of Fred's shirt and George unhooking her bra.

That had been a quiet and uncomfortable moment for all who were involved.

Hermione stands up and goes to shower immediately so she can wake up properly and grabs one of the twin's shirts to put on. Grabbing her toothbrush, she heads to the kitchen where a fresh pot of coffee awaits her, "We need to do laundry, I'm out of clothes."

Her toothbrush in her mouth she pours herself a cup and feels arms around her, "I know, that is my shirt." She tugs out of the embrace to spit in the kitchen sink, "It's comfortable. I love the new uniform for the shop."

The other twin appears, "Thank you, it was our better third's idea. She said the brown suits washed us out."

"She sounds brilliant," Hermione ran into her room to grab her bag with the undetectable extension charm that had papers, journals, spare clothes, a tent, and a medic kit. The wonders of being a well-prepared witch amid a war.

She comes back to the kitchen as she swings her bag around her shoulder and grabs the two coffee travel mugs, "I am going to swing around Sirius' place afterward to get some more books before he notices when they all get back tomorrow. Groan all you want but we need to know how to destroy Horcruxes then we can live happily ever after. Have a great day at work!" She kisses them both while the floating thermos follows her and she apparates to an undisclosed location for a safe house.

"You're late," Alastor Moody grouches from the shadows of the trees.

She raises her wand and grouches, "Are not. What is the name of my cat?"

"Gotta make the question harder than that, Crookshanks. What is the shape of my Patronus?"

"A rhino. Now can we hurry before our coffee gets cold?"

"I don't drink anything I did not make."

"Oh, be a quiet old man. Look I even poured it in a green thermos for your house. It's got vanilla creamer."

Moody grouches glancing distastefully at the cup while he reaches for it and quietly takes a sip while making the quietest of pleased hums. "This is another of my safehouses, it has a Protection ward so strong that muggles cannot even look at it and Death Eaters cannot get in beyond the cast circle."

"So, this makes 4 safe houses out of London and in the countryside."

"I had 5 but Rodolphus LeStrange burned half of the trees around it after he escaped Azkaban. They know the general location but not exactly, it is still too dangerous."

…

"Honey I'm home!", Hermione barges into the door with a large stack of books in hand. The twins peek out of their invention room, "My love, I think you will be pleased with our progress."

Hermione's head snaps up, "Is it ready?" George shows her the obsidian gem amulet that would allow any muggle to enter magical barriers and not be affected by enchantments.

She had explained to them that using a muggle would help in the transporting of survivors because muggle-borns are too well known by other students, while normal witches and wizards attract too much attention by muggles. A muggle traveling with a suitcase does not have a recognizable face and blends right in with other muggles. She just hoped Dudley still felt like helping but judging by the spark she saw in his eyes a year ago, she knew it was a yes.

"Excellent. I went to the Longbottom house today to give Neville his journal and Krum is getting settled in London."

"You sound so hot when you are giving orders like that." George.

"And don't worry, Lee came around today and helped run the shop." Fred.

"So, we can rest now," George wrapped his arms around her when she looked at the books. Fred looked at her glance towards the books and he walked from across the room to pick one up dutifully.

She turns to grab George's face, "I just need to find out more about Horcruxes. I need to help Harry." He nodded and grabbed a book.

It was half an hour later when there was a whoop of joy from one Fred Weasley. His twin and his love of his life both look at him insanely until he begins to read out loud,

"A Horcrux can be destroyed by Fiendfyre and basilisk venom, although it must be noted that it must be destroyed beyond repair or else it maintains it's magic as a Horcrux"

Hermione looked in wonder, "It can be destroyed, it can be destroyed!" She tackles Fred to the floor and places kiss all over his face and then George when he joined the fun. There were 10 minutes of laughing and cheering when Hermione raised her head, "How are we going to get a basilisk venom?"

Both twins groan.

They rushed to a small cottage in a town near Brighton, were unknown to most of the occupants was the temporary safe house of one Harry Potter. Fred and George got off easily from their brooms while Hermione wobbled into the ground as she clutched Fred's arm. She despised riding a broom no matter how much the twins loved it.

A wand appeared and Hermione was about to scream in annoyance at the gruff voice when it asked, "What is your Patronus?" She rolled her eyes at him, "A phoenix. And yours?" He muttered the same response as yesterday morning and she glared, "Next time Moody, I swear you need to think of better transportation."

"Not my problem. And shouldn't we test those twins of yours, they might be under a spell?"

She grinned, "We have not separated and trust me, after what we did, I would know if someone took control over their minds."

He nodded albeit disgustedly and let her in where she was tackled by Susan Bones, "Finally! I have been surrounded by just 'them' for 2 whole weeks with no escape. I almost ran away to become a muggle after breathing in so much testosterone." Hermione laughed and hugged her too.

It seemed like everyone was here. Tonks, Moody, Bill, Fleur, Remus, Sirius, Mundungus, Kingsley, Ron, Arthur, Charlie, and Hagrid.

At first when Remus and Sirius decided to take Susan and Harry to a safe house to escape people hounding Harry with his status of the Chosen One. Then in just a span of weeks, Death Eaters slowly placed spies within the MOM Apparition and Floo Network Offices when Kingsley overheard the workers watching for any activity in the general area of the safehouse that the Order decided they had to change the location. It was decided they had to move the family using safe modes of transportation before the Ministry discovered more information about the location of the safe house.

Harry was explained by Moody that since he still had the Trace on him then they couldn't Apparate or use the Floo Network without alerting the Ministry workers. A message from Percy that read,

HG

Pius Thicknesse under DE control. Do not trust

PW

made them speed up the date of the plan as Kingsley and Moody made no comments on who had sent her the ominous warning.

They explained the plan to Harry of how they were going to use Polyjuice Potion to make identical Harry's and he took it as badly as she thought. Hermione, of course with her quick thinking and not wanting to explain to the Boy that Lived the reasons why this was necessary since it would only take up more time, grabbed hairs from the back of Harry's head and drop it in the potion with Moody's grin and Harry's yelp of pain.

Kingsley also took this moment to place a spell on Harry. "This is a very delicate, very illegal spell that I so graciously cast for you to help absorb any magic auras before they reach you and activate your Trace. It is essential that you remember if you're found then we are all in danger." Harry nodded grimly and Kingsley made a motion for Moody to continue to explain the plan.

"Duplicate Harry's, you are leaving here in a broom, thestrals, and bike. One of you may protest when given a broom to ride and you need to remember to shut it for the sake of the plan," Hermione squinted her eyes and Moody pointedly glared at her.

She stuck her tongue out in rebellion, "You are not getting any more free coffee from me, old man."

"And to think I had high judgments for you, girl."

"Pretend all you want, old man; I saw that twitch of a smile."

Sirius leaned over Tonks and whispered, "What is going on?"

Tonks whispered back, "They seem to be friends?"

Moody and she glared at them, the Black family must not be known for their discreet whispering, "Alright stop with your yapping, all duplicates form a line!"

Fred, George, Susan, Fleur, Ron, Hermione and Mundungus all formed a line and grabbed the potion as they chowed it down. Everyone scrunched up their eyebrows at the taste and watched as the process made 8 Harrys all staring at the real Harry Potter.

Fred and George looked at each other and yelled, "We are identical!"

It must have been nerves that made her laugh and the twins stared at her, "It's nice to know that we still think you look hot."

Hermione laughed again as she took off her sweater while not looking away from the twins' glance at her slow tease when she was blocked by someone. "No! That is my body and I will not allow my body to be forced into a situation with you three when you are all wearing MY body!", Harry shouted horrified when he overheard Bill and Fleur's conversation that made him blush root red.

Fred and George look disappointed, "You are ruining all the fun, we were about to tell Gryffindor girls what to expect from 'The Chosen One'." She swatted them and motioned them to change into clothes.

"Hermione are those my boxers?", Fred took a closer look at the boxers in Harry/Hermione's waist who blushed red.

"I told you we needed to do laundry yesterday!"

Bill laughed and got a pair of jeans thrown in his face during the process.

Moody then paired them all up. Bill with Fleur, Charlie with Hermione and Kingsley with Susan in the thestrals, Sirius with Fred, Remus with George, Moody with Mundungus, and Mr. Weasley with Ron in a broom, Hagrid would take the real Harry in the bike that Sirius lent to Hagrid almost 2 decades ago to bring Hary to safety when he was a babe.

Hermione makes sure not to glance at Sirius who at the moment was having his hair stroked by Remus while he pouted at Hagrid, "I told you it was temporary." She knew that if she turned, she would be faced by Remus rolling his eyes and Sirius gazing lovingly at his Muggle motorcycle.

They all paired up when Hermione stopped next to Moody who looked out to the trees from the kitchen window, "I don't trust this, we should have gone with 7, girl. It is a luckier number."

Hermione looked at him, "You worry too much. Come on let's go and then tomorrow you can tell me about how we should have things instead." Moody nodded and Hermione gave Fred and George a peck on the cheek as she muttered, "If you die, I will kill you." They nodded and sent love and trust into the bond.

Charlie grasped her wrist as he helped her get on the magical creature rather uneasily and gave her a confident grin while she felt herself smile uneasily. At the mark they all got ready and they were off. It went from normal to bad as soon as they left the safe house when 30 hooded figures suspended in midair went towards them. Hermione gripped herself on Charlie's waist tightly as she focused with her eyes shut and whispered, "Protego!"

The barrier formed just in time to stop the first spells meant to paralyze and capture Potter to dissipate. The fight that broke out with spells being fired from every side lead to the pairs to not even be able to keep track of one another. Hermione just kept firing and even managed to stun one who was about to attack Susan and Kingsley.

Charlie and Hermione got to Aunt Muriel's place, the closest of all the locations of where the duplicates were sent. Hermione gasped in pain when she felt immense pain on her ear that was not her own, it was pain sent by the bond. Hermione stumbled as she grasped the crystal in her necklace and tapped it with her wand as she muttered, "Padma go to the Burrow, Ginny be ready with healing supplies."

Charlie brought her hand to the Portkey as she whispered, "They are hurt Charlie, I feel them"

"Don't worry about it Mione, they are brave boys. They can handle it."

She nodded as she landed in the grass of the Burrow. Molly rushed to them and caught her as she was about to trip, "Hermione? Are they? -"

Molly was unable to even finish the sentence when she shook her head, "The bond is dazed right now."

There was a snap behind her, Hermione turned to see it was Padma. She raised her wand because although it was a dear friend, she had to make sure - for her family, "What was the first thing I said to you in the Great Hall?"

"How the ceiling is bewitched to look like the outside sky."

Hermione nodded and lowered her wand and stumbled as Charlie helped her get to the couch where Padma cleaned her forehead where she had a gash she did not notice before. She heard the snap and Kingsley and Susan's voices, then another snap with Hagrid and Harry as they told Molly about how the Death Eaters were waiting for them. Somehow, they knew about the plan.

There was a snap and then another, that is when she felt them. Remus and Fred panicking outside over George and something is wrong. She tries to stand with tears in her eyes as she mumbled, "I need to get to them, let me go. They need me." Someone is holding her back; it might be Charlie and Ginny as Padma whispers to not let her move.

Padma then rushes outside and in a clear voice, "Bring him inside quickly, I need a clean environment to heal him."

"Who are you?"

"Hermione's friend and medic. Quickly before I can't save that ear."

Remus carries him in and drapes him over the biggest couch as Fred follows dazedly. Padma inspects the wound, "Ginny, I need your help immediately if we are to save his hearing." Charlie lets his grip loosen for a second and that is all Hermione needs as she crawls to George's body as she grips his hand and strokes his hair the way he likes it while Fred sits leaning over her and George.

"Georgie, you cannot die now. Remember our Master Plan," Hermione whispers while Fred's grip on her waist tightens in terror. She feels a deeper pain in the bond and hisses, "Padma, that hurts. It hurts so bad."

"I know, I only need a few more minutes and then it will be all over."

Hermione cries as she thinks of what she might have lost today, of what would become of her if her two lights of her life left her. She shivers at the sudden cold she feels in her body when Molly drapes a blanket over them as Molly mutters to someone else, "It's what happens when the triad's core is damaged. Temporary."

In a moment Padma bandaged the ear and takes a deep breath, "I've saved the ear and he will be fine in no time. Let me help the rest of you." Padma is back to taking out bandages and letting Ginny place a heal spell on Tonks.

Hermione just gets closer to George and Fred as she hears the mark hum. She watches as Arthur thanks Padma for her help and Molly grips her into a fierce hug and how they check on George's breathing as if nothing is better proof than watching their child's chest move with each breath. "Hermione? Fred?", a voice utters, and they look in surprise.

"Georgie are you alright?", Hermione grasps his hand.

"I feel saint-like."

"What do you mean saint-like?", Fred grew worried.

George looks up with a smile, "Get it? Holey?"

Fred grimaces, "Pathetic, utterly pathetic. A whole wide world of ear-related humor before you and you go for hole-y?"

Hermione hugs him, "Besides Padma saved your ear, you idiot."

"Hey! I am injured."

"Which is the only reason you are alive instead of me having killed you for making me and Freddie worry so much about you."

Charlie whispers, "Georgie? Freddie?"

Hermione snapped her face to glare at him so ferociously that he immediately looked away while Padma snapped his nose back in place. "Bloody Merlin in a rucksack! That hurt!"

The student medic did not even look at him when she muttered, "You work with dragons and this is what scares you? Interesting."

She hears a snap of an Apparition and watches as Bill and Fleur walk into the kitchen, "Mad-Eye Moody is dead."

All the laughter and smiles escaped the room. She stands up as Bill explains how Mundungus panicked over the Death Eaters and apparated only for the curse to hit Moody full-on in the chest as he fell unconsciously to his death.

She had just joked about his coffee for tomorrow. She tries not to think of him telling her that 7 pairs is a luckier number to use only for 7 out of the 8 pairs to come back while Dung disappeared, and Moody was killed.

Everyone raises their glasses when Molly brings out some wine and cups, "To Moody." They ponder where his body might be as Kingsley bids goodbye to return to the Muggle Prime Minister. The door shuts when a roll of parchment appears and flies straight to Hermione and everyone raises their wands at it until Tonks says, "Stop! I know what this is."

Remus stares at the paper, "What is it?"

Tonks looks morose, "It is Moody's will, it's spelled to appear after his death." Tonks then grabs the parchment and reads,

"If any of you are reading this then I am dead, and this parchment is being read by someone I trust. I don't have much to give but if I died fighting then good, that is how I wanted it.

If there is no body, do not worry and maybe bury the cup that the girl keeps handing me. It is mostly so no one should have to stare at that atrocious color of green.

I give the houses to Hermione Granger, my appointed next Secret Keeper and beneficiary since there is no one left with the Moody name. I believe in you girl; you know what to do. The map and key are here, only to be seen by the girl. Shock me with what you do but if you name your children for me, I will come back to murder you.

That is all,

Thank you,

Moody."

Everyone is shocked as they stare at Hermione, the new heir to the Moody vault. "Why would he have named me his successor?", Hermione looked confused.

"He must have liked ya more than you believed," Tonks was stunned at her teacher's last will. She never thought that Alastor Moody would name a teen girl his successor by everything but changing her surname.

Hermione sighs and picks her cup up, "To an old grouch that manages to surprise people even in death."

Everyone smiles bitterly, "To an old grouch."

Molly looks at Padma, "Stay here for tonight dear, it is far too late for you to travel by yourself." Padma glances at Hermione who nods, and she looks at Molly, "That would be lovely, Mrs. Weasley."

"Oh no, after all you have done for us, please call me Molly. My son Charlie must be thankful, you know he works at the Dragon Preserve in Romania? He was also Hufflepuff Quidditch Captain when they won the Cup….", Molly's voice drums out as she walks with Padma to a room where she can lay down.

Bill laughs and places his hand on Charlie's shoulder, "Seems like mum wants to match you up." Charlie gets pale and looks upwards while Bill continues, "This is what you get for telling her you were going stag to the wedding."

"Oh, shut up, will you?"

Arthur Weasley stands up with a heave, "Alright everybody, go to bed. We have made extra beds for everyone, no excuses. Hermione, Fred, George, can you stay in the Burrow tonight?" They all knew the answer because no one told Arthur no, it made you feel like the worst person in the world when looking into his eyes. She shakily nodded.

"Bill and Fleur, you are in Bill and Charlie's old room, Sirius and Remus you are in the twins' room, twins and Charlie are in P-Percy's old room, Harry and Ron in the attic and of course all the girls Ginny, Hermione Susan and Padma in Ginny's room."

Hagrid bellowed his goodbye as he left in his motorcycle, offering Tonks a ride home which she graciously accepted after glancing nervously at Charlie.

Hermione got up in the morning as she remembered everything that happened the day before. I promise you Moody, when this war is over, I will give that cup the most infuriating funeral of all. I may just bury it Viking style just to feel your anger from up there. She grinned somberly as she imagined a furious Moody with angel wings when the hated cup shows up next to him.

She got up and went to the kitchen to find Padma nursing a cup and smiled at her, "I never thanked you for what you did for George last night."

"Ah yes, he is part of your triad."

Hermione stilled in shock and glanced back at Padma who was grinning, "Don't worry, I won't tell. You three were not as secretly as you thought besides the thick bracelets clued me in. I always assumed you liked one of the twins, I just never assumed it would be both."

"Did I already tell you how grateful I am to have you as a friend?"

"Yes, but I believe that I need to hear it more often."

Hermione grinned when she heard footsteps to reveal one drowsy Charlie who walked into the kitchen, "Charlie have you met Padma Patil yet?" She felt slightly evil for using Charlie's non-alert drowsy state but felt better when she saw both blushes heavily.

Eventually, she took pity and glanced at Padma, "Want me to take you home? I am meeting Dean in London today, you can join us." Padma agreed to the second option, unknown that Charlie was the one who was on Hermione guard duty.

She went upstairs to change when she felt the ring shake and she opened her journal,

Umbridge tested my loyalty, I passed. The Ministry will fall before the summer ends, get ready and be safe.

-PW

Ending summer? That was far too close. This is it, she needed to start the network. She switches pages and wrote,

If you are still interested in helping, then come meet me at King's Cross Station as soon as you can. Send me a message when you are here.

-HG

She looks over to her and Pansy's plan to save Evan and makes a note to talk to Bill and Fleur later tonight. Her ring shakes and to her surprise, there is a reply already,

HG,

I can be there in 4 hours.

She snaps her journal close, at least she feels like she is finally doing something. She goes downstairs in her muggle clothing and sits across from Harry, "I found how to destroy them- the Horcruxes."

Harry snaps his head from looking at his plate of eggs, "W-What?"

"Harry Potter, do not talk with your mouth full. I found them in Sirius's family library."

Harry swallows the eggs in his mouth, "I got those from Dumbledore's office on the last day of school, but I had to leave before handing them to you so I put them somewhere you could find them. The library."

Hermione looks impressed by Harry's fast thinking. There is a furious number of steps in the stairs when everyone bursts thru to the kitchen in a universal hunger. Fred and George each gave Hermione a peck on the cheek, "Hurry up or you are going to be late to open the store."

Fred and George grab their cup of coffee and a slice of toast and nod. Bill, Fleur, and Arthur all head out the door to their jobs already dressed and stomachs full, each with a kiss goodbye on the cheek from Molly, even Fleur. The twins look in shock at the time in their watch while Padma checks on George's wound. She nods and places a smaller bandage on his ear with an invisibility spell in place.

Charlie gets back downstairs with decent muggle clothing and looks at her, "Where to boss?" It seemed that it was unanimously decided by the Order that Charlie would take over Moody's role as Hermione's protector.

Hermione smiles and grabs the Floo Powder, "Weasley Wizard Wheezes." With a snap, she is in her and the twins flat. Behind her show up Padma, Charlie and the twins who rush to change into their uniforms since they did not have any spares in the Burrow.

Charlie and Padma graciously look away when she kisses both and when Fred and George whisper, "Be safe-" "And we love you." She places a hand on the side of their face, and she hopes they can feel the love and happiness they both cause on her while their memory necklaces shine in their chest.

"Let's go."

She takes them to muggle transportation as they head to a small house in the northwest of London. Charlie looks around, "Hermione, where are we?"

"My old home," she glances at the house she never thought she would see again, "Quickly so we can get out of here."

Charlie looks shocked at the home of the parents who seemed so desperate to forget their daughter while Padma glances worriedly at Hermione as she quickly confounded her parents into forgetting they ever had a daughter named Hermione Granger. Charlie walks around the house and looks around, he did not see a single picture of Hermione anywhere. He made a note to talk to his mum about making sure Hermione was okay later in the day.

Hermione walked out of the house as soon as her parents stood and she told Charlie, "They are moving to Australia to continue to manage the new dentist office that they just opened there."

"Hermione are you-"

"They made their decision Charlie, now they actually know they don't have a daughter. It was time to move on. I have my own family now."

Hermione looks at her watch, "We need to leave now, or we will be late to pick someone up and to meet with Dean." They started walking to the muggle bus station, Hermione refused to make it any easier for the Death Eaters to find her parents before they left the country. They made their decisions and while she had a new family, that did not mean that she wanted her parents to die.

…

What was he doing here? He grasped his bag full of clothes even tighter until the strap was bruising his arm. This was not the time to grow scared, he wanted to do this. He wanted to help save the world that Harry had whispered to him at the dead of the night in his room. He wanted to help.

He looked around, hoping that Hermione Granger had not changed enough to let him recognize her when he heard his name being shouted. "Dudley! Over here!"

He finds her quickly and smiles at her, "Happy you decided to send the message, I was wondering if you would ever need me."

She nods and motions, "Charlie Weasley, Padma Patil meet Dudley Dursley."

He reaches out his hand, "It's Dudley Evans now." At the sight of Hermione raising her eyebrows, he explained, "I think that Dudley Evans sounds much better than Dudley Dursley so I changed it."

She nods at the simple explanation while knowing that there is a deeper explanation but puts it aside for later and hands him an obsidian necklace, "This is for you."

"What is it?"

"It's a pendant to allow you to cross barriers meant to stop other Muggles. It is interesting since both your aunt and Harry are magic then that means that you have magic too, but it is too small for the Ministry to consider allowing you to go to Hogwarts. All this necklace does is make your magic core big enough to pass the barriers, but it does not have the power to let you use a wand. This is interesting since it must mean that there is either a hidden witch/wizard or a squib from a powerful magical family in your family tree for this necklace to even work," Hermione babbled at the wonders of the magical necklace and its workings while she felt herself smiling.

Padma nudged her, knowing from experience that it was better to cut her off now before she starts referencing books, "Hermione maybe we should go to a private place before we keep discussing this."

Hermione looks around embarrassed and begins to walk to the British Library while Dursley puts on the necklace and shivers.

"How will we know if it works?", Dudley grew worried as he walked next to her.

Hermione smiled, "I already tried it, look around Dudley. No one else can hear us."

Dudley watches amazedly at the people not even glancing at them.

They arrived at the British Library and kept walking until they reached the back that showed the normal large bookcases only rather than the rest of the library, it had fewer lights and fewer people. He stays quiet while Hermione smiles at him while she pulls out her wand and taps certain books and puts her wand away only to grasp a book and swing it open.

Dudley gasps at the sight of an entrance behind the bookcase and steps in with Charlie and Padma who seemed used to this. He watched at the sight of double beautifully carved wooden doors that were being guarded by a simple librarian on a desk with a sparkle in her eyes and holding a book that read 'The Goblin Wars of the 12th Century'.

Hermione and the librarian share a glance and a smile, and they all open the doors to reveal a small magical library. Dudley cannot stop looking everywhere at the sight of books flying to their places in the bookcases, of people in large hats with wands out. He follows them to the side of the hidden library that shows doors of closed study rooms and Padma opens the door.

Hermione raises her wand to the person standing there, "What does CHARMS club do?"

"Club in Hogwarts Associating with Representation of Muggleborn Students." Hermione lowers her wand and goes to hug him, "Hello Dean, how are you?" He sighs, "Surviving."

Hermione glances at the other person and Dean whispers, "I already checked him, he is good." She smiles at Oliver Wood and Viktor Krum, who were in sudden retirement with Voldemort's return canceling any Quidditch events and hugs them as well. Both had settled in London and waited for her instructions and had even gotten a flat together to help save money.

Hermione waves her wand and casts a silent Muffliato everywhere as everyone greets each other or introduces themselves. Everyone sits down as Dean motions to the room, "I grabbed a map of London and England as requested." She nods and everyone sits.

Hermione clears her throat, "My source within the Ministry says that the Ministry will fall before summer ends, and we need to prepare for that. This is why I have gathered all of you. I need your help to hide muggleborns and others that Voldemort might persecute. We need to do this because no one else is going to."

Dean stands, "We already have a list of muggle-born students and most of them have ways to receive the message if they need to be relocated although there are few that believe it would be safer if they went into hiding themselves. You told me last week that you found places to hide?"

She nods, "There are 4 that Moody gave to me and his family home. He assured me they hold the best protection wards against muggles and Dark Magic along with being unplottable in a map."

"How are we going to help so many leave to safety?", Oliver glanced uneasily at her.

"Cars, Portkeys and him," Hermione points to Dudley.

"A muggle?" "Me?" "Explain."

"We need someone who blends in with muggles when Death Eaters look for fugitives and while we could use muggle-borns, we are much too distinctive to other students. Someone somewhere is going to recognize a muggle-born by simply a glance from the train, we cannot risk people like that. A muggle who knows of magic can blend in and since he never dropped off Harry then no one remembers him because they have not seen him and besides we will need his help if witches and wizards are as helpless in muggle clothing as I have seen in the past."

Dean takes out the suitcase and places it on the table, the same one from 4th year. Newt Scamander's suitcase that Rolf Scamander had let them borrow after she had explained what it was going to be used for. "This suitcase is a registered Extension spell; it is legal by the MOM which means they cannot arrest us on illegal spells. Newt Scamander helped various large animals recuperate inside here during the 1920s and we think this might help transport people from one place to another."

Hermione snapped Charlie's hand from where he was creeping up to touch his hero's suitcase. He must have read Newt Scamander's textbook a thousand times and now he was staring at his great-great grand-uncle's famous suitcase. He could cry but he focused. He was the oldest and so had to inspire confidence and responsibility.

"Dean and Penelope will go to the new muggle-born first year homes next week to warn them and ask them to come with us when the time comes. Remember that no one can know about this, not even family or we risk lives we can save."

Everyone nods grimly and Hermione frowns, "Since we do not know of the state that the safehouse will be in, we will have to most likely clean it. Everyone meets in WWW at 9 o'clock tomorrow, come in by the back door. It will be Dean, Dudley, Charlie, Oliver, Rolf, Padma, Alicia, Penelope, Neville, Krum, and Susan."

"Padma, have you and your sister decided what to do yet?"

"It is too dangerous for her to go back to Hogwarts alone so if I can, I wish to bring her with me."

Hermione nods and wishes her safe travels as she walks home with Oliver and she faces Dean, "Dean, are you okay with staying with Seamus' family while they stay in London? I want you to be close"

"Yes, no worries."

Hermione glances at Dudley, "Are you sure that you still want to be a part of it?"

"Now more than ever. If I can help Harry, then I will."

"Then let's go."

"Where are we going?"

"Ever been to a place called Diagon Alley?"

Charlie looked alarmed, "Hermione!"

"Charlie where else can I place him where he won't be in danger?", Hermione glanced at him when Charlie made an uncomfortable sound.

"What about my place?"

"What? You have a flat? Where?"

"In the hidden part of wizard London, with everything that has been going on mum thought it was best I stayed in the Burrow to better protect you, but who do you think Krum and Wood asked for flat recommendations?" Charlie had the idea to look sheepish.

"Is that what they meant with interesting neighbors? Alright, fine. Take him and explain everything that you can. Tomorrow at 9 o'clock, go."

Charlie then pointedly looks at Dudley to follow him as he whispers, "If anyone asks, you tell them that your parents moved to America when you were 9 and you are an Ilvermorny graduate, you've recently come back to visit family. If no one says anything then don't ask anything until we are in my flat, got it? Good."

They walked into a large building of apartments that had a doorkeeper and they marched in while Dudley heard a pop. They went up the stairs as Charlie explained, "That pop is you crossing the anti-muggle barrier. That necklace really is impressive."

Dudley was about to retort when he saw girls with witch hats, children in flying brooms and boys playing wizard chess on the floor. He tried not to stare as Charlie opened his flat to let him in. It seemed normal with a colorful couch, a table with 3 chairs and pictures of family everywhere. Charlie grabbed two bottles and sat on the couch.

"This is a wizard drink named butterbeer. I think you'll like it." They both look up at the knock from the door and Charlie simply yells, "IT'S OPEN!" They watch as Viktor Krum and Oliver Wood walk in looking unimpressed as they carry a pack of Butterbeer bottles.

Dudley took a hesitant sip but then nodded at the surprising taste. "Alright what do you want to know?", Charlie, who had many burns in his forearms, looked straight at him as Wood and Krum settled at a chair and the floor.

He pondered, "Tell me about Hermione. Why is she the one leading all of this?"

"Well, the simple answer is that she was the only one with the guts to take charge."

10 Minutes later

"So, this triad, how does it work?", Dudley said while Krum also glanced up, looking interested.

"Well from what I understand the twins each have half of a soul and a magical core that they share and that is very rare even with magical family twins. They share a mark that marks them as soulmates whose very bond can create very dangerous magic when the bad guys find out they will be in so much danger."

Oliver huffs, "I don't think this is what Hermione meant when she said to explain everything to him."

Charlie raises his eyebrows at the brunette, "Shut it, 'Ollie'." Dudley and Krum watch impressively as Wood blushes deeply.

5 hours later

"And then I got this one by taking a dare that I could take a scale while she was sleeping and at the last second whoop the dragon woke up! I got in so much trouble that day," Charlie's eyes were already glazed over.

Oliver stands, "Charlie said Dragon! Tequila Shot!

Dudley wobbles, "Mate you got to stop saying dragon!"

The Bulgarian athlete scoffs as he turns to raise his shirt and shows an impressive scar in his back, "That is nothing dragon-boy, I got this flying 90 miles per hour right into trees after the other team sent Bludger towards me."

The others hiss as they nodded defeated.

The next morning at 9:10 AM

Charlie stumbled upstairs, "Fred George I need a Pepper-Up Potion before your better third kills me!" Hermione raises her eyebrows at Charlie, Oliver, Krum, and Dudley who all came in with sunglasses while everyone else glances at them from the living room. Hermione groans/

While the boys were slowly getting drunk, Hermione was seated with Bill and Fleur in a picnic table yards away from the Burrow while the night got darker. She twisted the glass of water she had been offered while Fleur and Bill were seated next to her as she looked around although she already knew that she had cast a Muffliato.

"I came to ask a favor," Hermione finally spoke as it broke concentration Bill's nervous wondering of what could be the worst she could tell them.

"Vat kind of favor?", Fleur glanced at the bright eyes of her soon to be sister-in-law who seemed to be very nervous.

"I need you to take care of a child during the war. I cannot hide him with everyone else because if by any accident he is found or someone tells the wrong person, it will risk people who I cannot save if they are found."

"Hermione, who is this child," Bill grew tense.

She looked at the moisture of the cup, "You cannot tell anyone, not even your mother." They nodded and she continued, "I have Slytherin spies, some are low-level like Theo Nott, but others are so high up that it is dangerous to even tell you."

"Hermione-."

"Evan Parkinson."

"Parkinson? Like the Death Eaters Amos and Ixora Parkinson?"

"Yes, and like their daughter Pansy Parkinson who has been giving me information for the past 2 years and who fears for her brother if he stays much longer with her parents."

They look at her, "Do you trust her?"

She nods, "Yes. I need to do this because she has risked her life more than once to ensure that people are warned. He is 6 years old and I refuse to turn my back on a child that I can save, no matter if he turns out to be a Slytherin."

Hermione takes out a picture Pansy had given her and puts it on the table. Bill and Fleur look at it and Fleur places her hand in Bill's bicep and the other on the photo. Bill takes a deep breath while he looks at the fear Hermione has for this child's well-being and nods, "How are you going to get him out?"

"Pansy and I are going to fake his death with a misplaced spell. Bill, he cannot ever be found during this war, if he is even recognized then they will know there are traitors and I expect no one can hold out against Voldemort."

Fleur looks at her, "I vant to help. I know you are voing something dangerous, and I vant to help you save more people like this poor poor voy."

Hermione thinks, "If you are sure then show up at the twins' shop tomorrow at 9 o'clock."

Fleur nods and smiles sweetly at her. Hermione leaves the picture.

Back to the present

"Are you two hungover?", Hermione glances at them.

"Bulgaria drinks are much stronger than these Butterbeers," Viktor laughs at the thought of getting drunk off Butterbeer.

Oliver groans, "Charlie kept saying dragon!"

Dudley, like Krum, takes off his sunglasses, "I'm good, who would have known that I can outdrink a wizard?"

Fred and George appear out in the hallway holding a clear glass with a green potion and laugh, "Ha! Anyone can outdrink Charlie, he is an incredible lightweight."

"You better chug that potion Charles or I am not taking you with me," Hermione looked thunderous while Fleur greeted Krum with joy and a tight hug. The Tri-Wizard Tournament truly did connect witches and wizards when they mutually feared for their lives in the trials.

Somehow, they left Diagon Alley and stood in front of Hermione's car. "Everybody in and buckle your seats!" Dudley watched overjoyed at the sight of 15 people fitting comfortably at a car meant for 4. They took off like literally took off into the sky with the Invisibility charm in place.

Hermione stared at Seamus who had shown up to the meeting with Dean and was seated behind her in the car while Dean talked to Dudley in the back seat, "You just had to come along with Dean, didn't you?"

Seamus mumbles, "Didn't have anything to do."

"Suuuure."

Hermione parked the car in Moody Manor in Norwich, expecting the usual cabin with Moody paranoia on surviving the apocalypse and stands in shock at the abandoned and ruined large manor. Charlie goes to stand next to her, "Yep, Moody is an old rich name. They were respected pure bloods until their son started to capture their friends' children as Death Eaters."

Hermione looks at Charlie, "Charlie this place is huge. Do you know how many people we can put in here?"

"Wait till you see Malfoy Manor one day, takes Dad 30 Ministry workers and a whole day to raid and check the place during Ron's second year."

Dean walks towards them, "This place needs a lot of work."

"Actually, vere is a spell here, everyone come closer and you vill see," Fleur touches the magical auras in the air.

Everyone crosses the gate to see a nicer cleaner manor and Dudley whistles astoundingly, "So everyone else sees an abandoned haunted manor while we see this?"

Hermione laughs, "You got me here Moody."

Charlie looks around sadly, "Moody could never bring himself to come back but he also couldn't let it fall apart."

There is a moment of silence when Hermione turns to look at the group with a new sense of hope, "Alright people, we can do this. Let's start cleaning. Everyone, meet our new headquarters!"

She opened the doors, and everyone looked at the dust and at the number of weapons that cluttered the house. Moody as a true Slytherin did not mind fighting dirty to get the job done. Something that was unfortunate when they were trying to turn it into a safe house for students.

Fleur was in her essence as she started to separate people and give them various jobs with different sections while everyone nodded determinedly in old clothes and bandanas, ready to clean. They all started immediately casting Tergeo on mysterious stains as Fleur grabbed her purse and started to pull out cleaning supplies. The sun went down and it seemed that the ice was broken as they all went to the car tired and happy at the amount of progress done as it was decided to meet the next day.

And that is how the week went, a new bond was formed in the group with sweat, blood and minor injuries that may have led to extra water in the eyes while they cleaned the manor. She watched as Fred and George, who joined them in most days and left Verity in charge during slow days, teased Dudley as he stared at Susan with a smile Hermione remembers in Harry's face when he looked at Ginny.

She tried to keep spirits up after the papers of the Daily Prophet published Professor Burbage's disappearance and knew like everyone else that she was most likely dead. Burbage knew that she was in danger when the newspaper published her paper on how Muggles help stopped the dying of the magical community, but she had refused the Order's protection.

She had looked strong and fearless when she told the Order, "No, I shall be fine. The moment I fear them is the moment they win." The woman who had shown such approval at Hermione's plan to form CHARMS and who had helped so much along the way. It may have been the first noticeable death of a muggle-born in the war.

It seemed to make others even more determined as they brought hammers and nails for things that could not be fixed with spells. Dudley and Dean were more than happy to let Seamus and Oliver try to find out how to use muggle tools for a good half an hour until Fleur glared at them.

Penelope had even shown Hermione a plan for older students to teach younger students. Hermione looked around the house as she noticed the rowan wood and pure silver in places around the house that although did not stop magic as muggles believed, it helped minimize magical auras. Fleur, Penelope, and Hermione realized that the magic caused by students would seem much less in a Ministry map, although they refused to think what the Moody family was using it for.

…

The day of Bill and Fleur's wedding grew close when the couple decided to host a small dinner for their friends and family. The Delacour family had just arrived that morning and with Molly's nervous cleaning habits, they had arrived to the cleanest the Burrow had probably been in a few years.

Bill stood up with his glass, "In two days' time at this very spot, I shall marry this beautiful woman next to me. I look around and I cannot imagine a better group of people we can call family and friends to share the joy of these special days. Cheers!"

Everyone picked up their glasses and cheered then dug into their plates. Slices of cake were passed around greedily since Fleur had made her special fruit cream cake that was amazing. Hermione was passing a cake slice to Fred when a hush fell over the table, she quickly looked around and smiled when she saw Sirius Black kneeling in front of Remus while he held a little box.

Remus seemed to be holding his breath when Sirius spoke with shaking hands, "Y-Years ago, I never thought I would get this chance and years before that I was too scared to even ask, but now I am here with you, and our dysfunctional family. I am happy beyond words and I know that I would not have that if you weren't by my side. You have shown me love, loyalty, and courage when I had all but just admitted defeat, you gave me a family when I thought I would die alone. Remus Lupin, I fell in love with you in my first year of Hogwarts and I have fallen in love with you every day since then, marry me please Moony?"

Remus lay still and nodded his head as he raised his hand to delicately stroke Sirius' face and tuck in a strand of hair, "You silly silly man, as if my answer would be anything but yes."

A new cheer rose with Sirius, Harry and Susan leading the charge and Arthur running in to get a bottle of champagne. Sirius delicately places Remus' engagement ring on him while Remus kisses Sirius' tears away. The newly engaged couple was then passed for handshakes and hugs while Susan burst into tears at how happy she was.

The day of the wedding was here, and the air was tense as tents rose and the girls rushed to get ready. It was half an hour before the ceremony was about to start when Hermione walked into the groom's tent to see Charlie helping him with his tie.

Bill and Charlie looked up at her, "Hermione? Is something wrong?"

She shook her head, "I was just wondering if you don't mind me giving you your wedding gift early." They looked confused as she brought a young handsome Indian man into the tent, "This is Ben Laghari, he studied curse-breaking with you in Egypt and decided to attend your wedding at the last minute."

Bill looked confusedly at her, "Hermione, what is this?"

'Ben' looked nervously at him, "Hey Bill, I am really happy I get to see you get married."

Bill and Charlie look shocked, "Percy."

They go and hug him fiercely while they patted his back, "Percy what is-."

"I am spying on the Ministry for Hermione, but she didn't want me to miss your wedding. She got me Polyjuice Potion and clothes. Your fiancé looks really beautiful, Bill."

The three brothers looked near tears when Bill looked at Percy, "Percy, it's dangerous that you are doing, are you sure?"

"Always the big brother Bill. Yes, I need to do this. Things are getting bad in the Ministry in a way that Dad can't see, and I need to be there to help send information."

Bill nodded, looked at Hermione and hugs her fiercely, "Hermione...thank you. This means- I know how much you must have risked by bringing him here."

She smiled, "What is family for?"

…

The ceremony was beautiful, and Fleur cried when Bill said his vows, "And I hope I make you as happy as you have made me in what seemed the darkest of days." Percy tried not to attract attention but even he could not help but cry a little. Ginny unknowingly gave her brother a tissue, something that made Percy pause before taking it and smiling at her.

Bill and Fleur then danced and danced the night away as other couples slowly joined them. She spots Oliver and 'Ben' dancing and talking quietly while they help hands and is even shocked as Krum offers to dance with her.

Harry was glad even in a disguise as Barry for the distraction Viktor offered Hermione to dance since Hermione beforehand was in a riled mood with the twins playing usher in the wedding full of giggling young Veela cousins. He almost ducked when three of the young Veelas grabbed the twins by their arms and Hermione's fierce expression led him to believe it was 5 seconds away from a wedding duel. Apparently, the bond made the twins feel her anger as well as they silently glance at her direction with a quick nervous smile and shove the girls rapidly to Ron.

People slowly left with well wishes to the happy couple when it was just their close-knit of people that Fred and George offered her their hand to dance. She smiled shyly and gave them her hand.

A week later

Hermione got close to the Parkinson mansion where Pansy brought her brother down to the farthest edge of the garden into what Pansy had told Hermione was a well-known hiding spot of Evan's. She handed Pansy a necklace with handwriting in the circle pendant, it made sure no one left any magical auras behind. If any skilled Auror checked the scene, they would only find Evan's.

"This is the last chance you get to back out Pansy."

The Slytherin girl took a deep breath and handed her brother their parents' wand, "Evan I need you to say these words." She whispers in Evans the spell needed. Evan stuttered and stumbled with the words, but it was enough for the spell to take effect.

Hermione places a Shield spell to wrap as a bubble around Pansy and Evan while it destroys the pajama places in front of them along with splattering blood collected from the day when Evan had cut his wrist on a sharp edge of a mirror. The roses around them shine with the blood, this would be enough evidence for anyone to blame a curious boy and a spell that backfired.

No one inside the house heard it since Pansy had explained once that their mother grew tired of Evan's loud laughter that she had carefully placed noise-canceling spells on all the windows and doors. Still Hermione and Pansy looked around carefully at any sign that someone had woken, only to hear the silent whisper of night.

This was the moment of escape. Hermione ran to Fred and George who was waiting for them with brooms ready to fly. Pansy and Evan quickly climbed into their broom and Fred helped Hermione get on, and off they flew into the sky.

The twins began to lower their brooms after an hour and touched ground in front of a small cabin in Blackdown Hills. Hermione watched carefully as Pansy's grip on Evan tightened as she carried him on her waist to the cabin as if she could make the walk longer. "Sissy, where are we goin'," Evan clenched his grip on Pansy's shirt shoulder.

The door opened with Bill and Fleur standing in the doorway with Charlie guarding it. Pansy cleared her throat as tears gathered in her eyes and she slowly lowered Evan to the ground with her kneeling to his height, "I am going to have to go for a while Ducky, but these very nice people are going to take care of you."

Evan threw himself on his sister and Pansy struggled to continue, "Pansy trusts these people a lot and you should listen to them. I am coming back, but it might take me a bit."

"No sissy, don't go."

She swallowed tearfully, "I love you so much and I promise that I am going to make things better."

Pansy stands and looks at Bill and Fleur while Evan grasps her hand, "His name is Evan and he is the last thing that matters to me. He likes peaches, and he- he hates carrots."

She takes out a small bag from her jacket and hands it to Bill with tears rolling down her face, "This is all I have right now, I can get more if you need it. I just- just please take care of him."

Fleur steps closer and glances at Pansy as she presses the bag back to Pansy's chest, "Keep it, I vow with my vand and life that I vill protect your brother until you come back." Pansy hugs Fleur with a gasp of tears.

Pansy lowers herself to kiss Evan sweetly in the forehead, "Be brave for me Evan, I will be back before you know it." She nods at Fleur and Bill to take him away to the hidden Shell Cottage. As soon as Pansy cannot see him, she falls slowly to the ground as Hermione hugs her.

"Shhhhhh, you did the right thing, Pansy…. he is safe, he will be happy… you will see him when the war ends. I promise."

Hermione gives her a few minutes when she helps Pansy stand, "You need to go before your parents wake up or you and Evan might be in danger." She takes a deep breath and gets back in the broom dazedly as she casts a temporary Perfection Spell on her face for her real sorrow to show when her parents tell her of Evan's death and handed Hermione the necklace back.

Two days later there is a small obituary in the Daily Prophet for Evan Parkinson with funeral details in the bottom. Hermione throws it away as she hands Dean and Penelope the hidden note McGonagall had sent in her usual letter to Hermione that contained the names and addresses of the muggle-borns. She makes sure they see McGonagall's handwriting at the bottom that reads I am trusting you to protect them.

Dean and Penelope widen their eyes at the sight of the handwriting, the same handwriting they had seen various times in their revised Transfiguration essays. The look in their eyes makes Hermione know that they realized how much their dear professor was risking by sending them this information. Dean grasps her arm and Penelope nods with a new set of duty in her eyes. Hermione trusts them to get this done.

Hermione grew tense as she opened the Prophet in her morning cup of coffee to read the damage done by the giants on the coastal towns, the feral Fenrir attacking and killing families. She looks at her emergency bag that she now takes with her everywhere and feels guilt as she thinks of how she hid the last safe house from everyone, the one separated from all of them.

This safe house would be in case of a devastating attack where Harry could be hidden until the next time it was safe to fight again. According to Dumbledore, only Harry would be able to get the Horcruxes without alerting Voldemort and he would deal with the killing blow. She and Dumbledore had their differences, but the man was rarely wrong. Harry had to be protected.

She glances at the Burrow Sunday meal while Remus and Lupin talk about their upcoming wedding on Harry's birthday to celebrate them at the same time. She looks at Evan who now has black hair and caramel eyes.

Bill glances at Evan and leans over to Hermione, "We tried making him blonde, but it made him look too much like the Malfoys. We told him he has to go by Edwin for now, we call him Ed since it is close enough to his own that he answers."

Hermione looks at him, "How is he?"

"Quiet. He couldn't make too much noise at his house or he would wake his mum. We are still trying to convince him it is alright to talk but he is a sweet kid. Eats us out of peaches but Fleur enjoys the company when I'm out at work or in Order business."

She nods.

That night she looks at her journal,

H,

People are getting worried; records are getting pulled. Any day now.

-Percy W

G,

Talks of attacks to France and Bulgaria. For now, talks but the possibility of more. HE is intrigued.

-Draco M

H,

He is slowly grabbing the opposers that aren't hiding their views of You-Know-Who from MOM and Prophet. Barnabas Cuffe, the editor, was just dragged for questioning orders.

-Pansy P

She snaps the journal shut as she remembers Seamus words from last night, "People are getting really scared, Hermione." She stands and heads to the bedroom where her twins are brushing their teeth and drying their hair in the bathroom.

Fred looks at her curiously while George rinses his mouth as she faces them and puts her back towards the bed, "war is coming and before that happens, I want to shag my boyfriends." They both freeze as she takes off her cardigan and slowly pulls her shirt off.

They are still frozen when she turns and calls out to them, "Fine, I will do it myself, you two can just stay there and watch." Fred and George snap out of it with Fred shoving George to the sink and running to Hermione to kiss her deeply. George snaps, "Traitorous cheat," and grabs her waist in a tense grip that always makes her gasp.

-WARNING: TRIAD SEXY TIMES AHEAD

They make their way to the bed as both twins slowly grind, "Are you sure Hermione?" Another husky voice muttered, "We can wait if you want to, you know you're the only one for us." She makes them get rid of their shirts and pushes back to Fred while she places a hickey in George's jawline that makes him moan harshly, "I believe that is our answer, brother of mine."

She smiles, "I am always sure with you two." Hermione pushes Fred to the bed and takes off his bracelets as her hand swirls their mark in a way that makes Fred gasp. In a sudden rush of emotions, Hermione desperately wants to take off their bracelets and watches so she can see their bond mark, what makes them a triad. George slowly takes off her sleeping pants to caress her bum, "Absolutely beautiful."

She gasps at the love sent through the mark. Then in a moment, they are all naked and Hermione feels herself moan as George places a finger inward. She shivers when she lowers herself to Fred's level to lick his cock. Fred shivers and Hermione decides to place the tip of it in her mouth as her tongue plays with it. George places another finger and rapidly moves them in a way that makes Hermione speed up.

"George, please please." George twists his fingers while Hermione trembles, "Yes my love?" Hermione grasp Fred's cock in her hand and tells George, "Please -." She doesn't even get a chance to finish her sentence when George slowly thrust in and Hermione swears that her nerves are all tingling on the cusp of pleasure. He slowly starts to speed up and the feeling is amazing, but something is missing.

She pulls herself slowly back up to Fred as she places love bites up his neck, "Fred please I need you to - I need you both there," Hermione mumbles, unaware of how to get the point across. Fred moves his hand from where her boobs are and position her a bit higher as he grabs his cock. In that tense moment she whimpered as something around them broke, she could feel them in a deeper connection.

Fred and George groan as they both sink in with deep thrust that Hermione believes are making her thighs tremble at the sensation. Her breath leaves out of her chest as they begin moving, one pushes in and the other goes out as it gets faster and faster. The moans and whispers of "more" are coming out of her that it takes her a moment to realize it is her saying this.

Her hips tense when she finally let's go with a deep moan and falls bonelessly on Fred's chest. She feels both twins rapidly moving until they stutter in their movements and groan as they empty into her. George is lowly panting as he rests his head in her mid-back and Fred glances down to kiss Hermione's forehead.

There is a moment of silence when Hermione finally says, "We are definitely doing that again."

- END OF WARNING: DIRTY TRIAD TIME IS OVER

The morning light wakes them as Hermione glares at the sun to leave them alone for a couple more hours. She stretches satisfactorily and puts on someone's pajama pants and a Weasley shirt as she forces her to stand up and get the coffee ready. Hermione yawns as she heads to the kitchen and starts the coffee maker when she turns to the table and screams.

She hears the running from the bedroom at the sound of her screams with twins only wearing boxers and wands raised only for their faces to turn in horror.

Sitting on the couch was one Charlie Weasley with the largest grin on his face, "Moooorning."

She glances at Dudley who was sitting next to him reading the newspaper who also smiles, "It does seem like a good morning, does it not?" They smirk at each other as they tap their coffee cups together.

Charlie whistles at the extent of hickies, love bites, and light scratches all over the twin's bodies, "Injuries from battle, I see. Dudley, do you see anything in the newspaper that might sound a bit like triad magic being released?"

Dudley fake gasps while the twins attempt to cover themselves, "Oh my! It seems that there was a mass blackout not once, not twice, but thrice in one night as well as a nearby fountain's water gage to break, causing slight flooding at 4 in the morning."

Charlie salutes with a sniffle, "Making the family proud. Ginny already hid the newspaper from Mum, ruining all my fun."

Hermione, who was still in shock, snaps out of it to stomp into the room to get changed. As soon as she changes, she heads out the door but not before making the dirtiest kiss good-bye for the twins and marches downstairs only to be faced by a blushing Dean.

Dean stammers out, "I -I wanted to give you some privacy so I stayed downstairs and helped Verity with stocking." For some reason, this is what made Hermione blush madly. Not the crude jokes and sarcasm but the blushing Dean who seems genuinely embarrassed

"Let's go and hope this day goes by quickly."

"Well you did set up a meeting for everyone today in 15 minutes," Hermione stopped and glanced upwards and took a deep breath.

"CHARLIE WEASLEY AND DUDLEY EVANS, YOU BETTER NOT BE LATE TO THE MEETING!", Hermione then rushed out with Dean.

"Wait, are we not waiting for them?"

"Let them find their own way there."

Everyone was seated. Hermione Granger had her team. Oliver Wood, Dean Thomas, Dudley Dursley, Parvati Patil, Terry Boot, Rolf Scamander, Viktor Krum, Penelope Clearwater and student medics Padma Patil, Alicia Spinet and Terry Boot.

"Dean, Penelope what have you got planned for the retrieval for the muggleborns?"

Dean stands, "First we have planned for 3 meeting spots in the UK: Liverpool, Glasgow, and London where Dudley will be waiting with the suitcase to take us to Headquarters. We have also made sure that the other 3 safe houses are stocked with food and supplies for others."

Penelope takes out the map, "From there we will make a headcount and wait for more information. We have taken the pleasure of placing codewords to not reveal locations, Liverpool aka the Shire, Glasgow aka Erebor, London aka Olympus and Headquarters aka Neverland. We are muggle-borns, why not use muggle book names?"

Hermione nods, "Exact meeting points shall be sent when the time comes. Oliver and Parvati will go to Liverpool, Rolf, Viktor and Terry head to Glasgow, and Dean and Padma I need you in London. Alicia and Penelope, you will wait in Headquarters while Dudley you have to be ready in Glasgow to make rounds."

She takes a deep breath, "I need to know that this can run smoothly without me if I need to keep Harry safe to end the war. When the ministry is taken, I will take Harry and Ron to Headquarters. Can you do this?"

They all agree, and she smiles.

"Charlie wait."

He turns to face Hermione where she is sited in the kitchen table at the twins' flat. She looks at him, "Remember the safehouse by New Forest Park? If at some point your family is in danger that is where they should go immediately. We named it 'Wonderland'."

"Hermione are you sure?"

She nods, "Yes, and besides it is a back-up for Sirius and Remus too."

Remus and Lupin's wedding date was slowly coming up as Molly planned with their request of a 'simple wedding' at the Burrow had an increasing guest list as apparently Remus was quite popular with other people. They had also invited much of the DA to celebrate Harry's birthday[VA1] celebration as well. Molly was in high cheers although she did glare at Xeno Lovegood when he entered with Luna but a quick offer to dance by Arthur distracted her.

The wedding ceremony was beautiful as everyone watched the couple walk to the aisle where a Ministry official stood overlooking the fields. Remus and Sirius both stuttered through their vows and there was a particularly loud sob from Hagrid when Sirius called Remus, "the only light that kept me alive in the cells, the thought of coming back to you and not wasting a second." The rings were exchanged and there was an over-excited kiss at the end that ended with Molly's polite cough.

The tents were raised, and dancing began. Remus and Sirius gripped onto each other tightly in the middle of the dancefloor and Charlie eventually asked his mum out to dance while Arthur shared a dance with his only daughter. The slow tune of a particularly amazing love song started when Hermione looked across the room to gaze at the twins as she felt their love when she stood to walk towards them ….

When the lights go out and Hermione feels her ring shake furiously 3 times, she looks up at Fred and George with a panicked look that has them running to her. A shot of light shoots through the tent and a bear Patronus appears as it opens its mouth, "The Ministry has fallen, Rufus Scrimgeour is dead…. They are coming … they are coming."

There is screaming when Hermione grasps the twins' hands and with the largest burst of magic she yells, "PROTEGO MAXIMA!"

The cloaks flowing over them vanish as she hears a shriek, "It is her! She is a triad!"

Hermione looks around at the chaos, at the people in the DA who look towards her as they take out their wands, at the Weasleys who nod to her, at her two best friends who trust her and to her twins who smile expectantly at her. She smiles.

"Everyone knows what to do, we've planned for this. Now leave quickly, the barrier won't hold for long," Hermione grabs the bag that has not left her sight in a month while she grabs Harry Potter and Ron Weasley and vanishes.
