Chapter Twenty- Owl's Post again

After a few days later Ron joined Sirius, Hermione, and Harry in the Gryffindor common room. Alice and Jasper went to see Professor Lupin in his office to see how he was doing. They were able to walk hand in hand to his office. Jasper knocked on Professor Lupin's door. "Come in, Alice and Jasper."

Jasper opened the door, and he and Alice walked in. "How did you know that it was us when the door was closed?"

"The map told me that you two her here."

Alice giggled as well as she smiled. "Oh, right. Sorry I forgot about the map."

"Alice, before I forget, I would like to ask you something."

"What is it Remus?"

"How would like to live with me? Now that I have a job and I live in Lupin Manor."

"Remus, are you saying that you would risk everything just to take care of me?"

"Yes, I am, Alice. You don't have to decide now. Let me know during the summer when I come to visit."

"Okay, I guess that I'll think about it. I'll let you know when you come to visit me during the summer."

Remus then pointed the map and he smiled slightly. "I'll be giving you and Harry back the map for the summer. However, you must give it back to me when school starts next fall."

"Why would we have to give it back to you next fall?" Remus smiled slightly. He was given both Alice and Jasper a clue. "You're teaching again next year aren't you?"

"Yes, I am. Right now Professor Dumbledore is convincing the school governors to let me on another year. After that I'll be an Auror."

Alice smiled happily. She was so happy to hear that her Godfather was going to teach one more year. "Remus, I can't wait until next year."

Five minutes later Jasper and Alice left Professor Lupin's office. They headed back to Gryffindor Common room. Once again they were able to hold hands until right before the portrait of the fat lady. "Password?" she asked.

"Firebird's Courage," Jasper replied.

The portrait swung open, and Jasper and Alice walked though the hole into the common room. The portrait closed behind them. In her pocket was the Marauder's Map. She wasn't going to show it to Harry or Ron just, yet because neither of them needed to know just. Hermione, Ron and Harry were sitting at one of the tables near a window. Jasper and Alice decided to sneak up on them before they realize that the two of them were there.

Their plan worked well. Ron jumped out of his chair. Hermione flinched and squealed. Harry one the other shot out of his chair and spinned around. Hermione and Ron both turned around, and gasped when they saw who spooked them. Jasper and Alice both laughed at their friends' reactions. "Why did you two do that?" Harry asked.

"We thought that we needed to have a little fun. Our plan worked, and we have something to tell you."

"What is it, Alice?" Hermione asked.

Alice smiled before she continued. "Well, Professor Lupin gave me something back, but we must give it back to him at the start of the new school year."

"What did he give you, Ali?" Harry asked.

Alice reached into her pocket and pull out the Marauders map. She held it up to show it to the other three. Her smile widened. "How did you get that back, Alice?" Ron asked this time.

"Professor Lupin gave it back to me, so that we can keep it safe for the summer." She left out a couple of other that could be important information, but she didn't want to tell them what he asked her.

"How long are we able to keep it?"

"Harry. Weren't you even listening before? I've already told you that we need to give it back by the start of the new school year."

A few minutes later the golden quintet were sitting in front of the slowly dying fire. They were looking at the Marauders map one last time before they left tomorrow on the Hogwarts Express. Hermione, Ron, Jasper, and Harry all knew that Alice's legs were slightly weaker than they were before. They knew that she might need more help than she did before. They knew that she could still walk on her own for a while.

The five friends headed down to the Great Hall for lunch. Before leaving the common room, Alice cleared the map, and hid it in her trunk upstairs in her dormitory. She then headed back down to the common room where the others were waiting for her. They all headed down to the Great Hall together. They sat together at the Gryffindor table. Food magically appeared on their plates. Pitchers of Pumpkin Juice appeared on the table near them. Jasper poured some into Alice's goblet, and then some into his goblet.

Hermione, Ron, Jasper, Harry, and Alice finished eating after about fifteen minutes. They headed back to Gryffindor tower afterwards. Once they entered through the portrait hole. Ron and Harry went to play a game of wizards' chess. Hermione started to read one of her books again. Alice and Jasper on the other hand sat on the red couch reading a history book on the American Civil war. Both of them loved any type of history. She would remember everything that she would read. They all did their activities until it was time for dinner.

The next morning Alice began packing her trunk with her books, her moneybag, her robes, her potion ingredients, her cauldron, and her wand. Her wand was in a special compartment, so she could get to it faster. She even put her day clothes that she uses for the weekends. She looked over at Hermione who was doing the same thing as her. Both of them knew that the boys were packing their trunks as well.

Alice brought her trunk and Venus' cage down to the common room. Next came Jasper with his trunk with his owl's cage. Hermione followed him with her trunk and Crookshanks' basket. Harry came down with his trunk and Hedwig's cage. Ron came down last as usual with his beat up trunk. They all hurried down to the Great Hall for a quick breakfast before heading down to the carriages.

Once they were on the Hogwarts Express in a compartment of their own; they put their luggage away and brought their animals into the compartment with them. The train pulled out of the station. They were on their way home. For a while the group played some games. Ron got an over-enthusiastic owl from Sirius. A few hours later the food trolley came along. "Anything from the trolley, dears?"

Alice got up first and decided on two chocolate frogs and a cauldron cake. The witch handed her the food. Jasper was next and he decided on a pumpkin pasty. Ron didn't get anything, but Hermione got a liquorish wand. Harry decided to get a box of Every Flavor Beans. Alice got two witches chocolate frog cards that she never heard of. Her first one was a witch named Kyla Everhart who saved the word from evil. The second one was a witch named Lindsey Caine who created the first healing potion.

For most of the ride they just talked and ate their food. It was nearly three o'clock in the afternoon when the train finally pulled into King Cross station. Together all five of them got off the train with their trunks and animals. The golden quintet stood on platform 9 ¾. The rest of the students were already going through the barrier to the muggle world. Harry turned to Alice and asked, "Do you want to go first, Ali?"

"Why would I want to go first?" Alice turned her head slowly around. "Fine, Harry, I guess I'll go first, but only if you come after me."

"Fine, I'll go after you," Harry gave in.

Alice took a deep breath before going through the barrier. She knew that once she appeared through the barrier she would be heading back to her doom. Her friends Hermione, Ron, Jasper, Harry, and Ginny soon followed her through the barrier. Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, and Dudley were waiting for Harry and Alice on one side of the platform. When Alice saw her Aunt and Uncle she gasped in fear. She was only afraid of what might happen when she gets home this afternoon.

Harry and Alice headed to the car. They knew what was going to happen once they reached number four Private Drive their doom would begin. How long would they be able to handle the torment their cousin does to them? They both knew that their happiness would end very soon, and Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon both would be apart of taking away their happiness as well as using them to do chores around the house. Harry and Alice's doom and torment had officially begun.

Please Review. What do you think? Well there you have it Alice and Harry Potter: A Twin Story Year 3 has ended. I have started the twins fourth year, so the first chapter will be up before the New Year if I can. Please give me first year characters for the twins first year. Please put the name, gender, house, and if they are a half-blood, Pureblood, or a muggle born in the box below. You may put their personality and description in the box as well, so it would be able to help me describe them.
