Whoa, it's been a long time. Sorry for the wait! Disclaimer: I don't own anything. R&R
"Wow, what happened here?" Teddy and Lily came back in to see all the cousin's sniffing and trying not to cry. Teddy looked down at the little girl, "We leave for two minutes..."
Everyone looked towards them. The people from the past with helpless expressions and the others looking hopeless.
"We're stuck here!" Wailed Hugo. He wanted to go home and challenge his dad to a game of chess or drink hot chocolate with his grandma not these impostors.
"Hugo, it's gonna be okay. We've got Dumbledore who is working on coming up with a solution and we've got each other. We aren't stuck here alone," Reasoned Teddy.
"Ya Hu, it'll be okay," Lily bounced over to him, her mood fixed. The others wiped their tears away as the people from the past watched the effect Teddy had on them with amazement.
"Mrs. Weasley if it's okay can we have somewhere to sleep it's been a long day," Teddy asked. Mrs. Weasley nodded still a little stunned by his powers over the kids.
"Yes, of course! Teddy is it?" Teddy nodded not quite ready to reveal his identity to his parents yet. Then remembering something he swore.
"Teddy!" Molly scolded while the boys whistled in appreciation. Then confused that Victoire hadn't told Teddy off herself they turned towards her. The people of the past were still shocked into silence but they followed the kids gaze towards Bill's daughter.
"Victoire I'm so sorry!" Teddy apologized his hair turning a midnight blue colour. People gasped as he revealed he was a Metamorphmagus but Teddy had his eyes locked on Victoire's. She sighed.
"It's not your fault," Then it started to click in the cousin's minds. It was Teddy and Victoire's special day. They were going to go to a concert but it was more then that. They had always celebrated that day every year because when they were younger they realized it was the only time in the year when there wasn't a relative's birthday or a holiday so it became their time to celebrate whatever they wanted. Already they had been busy earlier that day but they had never not celebrated at all. It was a stupid holiday but neither of them cared because it was fun to claim a day for yourselves.
"We can still do something right?" Teddy looked around and his gaze rested on Sirius.
"Teddy it's okay let's just go to bed. It's been a long day," Victoire looked upset but was trying to mask it.
"Nope, we can't just stop now. Besides I had an idea," Teddy grabbed her hand and pulled her after him as he raced out the door and up the stairs.
"I hate it when he does that," James commented. Then he looked towards the occupants of the room, all of which looked confused, the people from the past more so then his cousins. Tonks had her mouth open like she was going to say something but it had never gotten out. "So are we going to follow them or what?"
They followed Victoire's voice up to the top floor. But their trail disappeared after that. Everyone looked around confused. Then Albus smacked his head. "Of course!"
He went to open a door but Sirius jumped in front of it first. "You can't go in there!"
"But Victoire and Teddy are in there," Albus said. Sirius got a panicked expression and threw open the door.
There in the middle of the room sat Teddy cross legged with his eyes closed but there was a big smile on his face. Victoire stood across the room petting Buckbeak. She stopped mid-sentence when she saw Sirius and the rest of them peering in and Teddy's eyes flew open.
"Hi," Sirius looked back and forth between the two and then slowly backed out of the room and shut the door.
The group trudged back downstairs. The past had been shocked into silence. Everything that had happened that day was just too much. Mrs. Weasley showed the future kids to their rooms. The boys would have to stay with Ron and Harry and the girls with Hermoine and Ginny. Everyone had questions but it was too late to ask any and the kids feel asleep quickly.
In the morning, Hermoine and Ginny met the boys to discuss their children but it was all too weird and they didn't know enough yet to really decide whether they trusted them. When they arrived in the kitchen for breakfast everyone was there except Victoire and Teddy.
"You don't think Buckbeak ate them do you?" Lucy asked. Everyone laughed but there were some worried glances upstairs. Dominique snorted.
"More likely they ended up snogging until the fell asleep up there," The rest of the future kids nodded in a agreement.
"Oh, so they are dating? I thought so last night but I wasn't sure and didn't want to ask," Tonks said.
"They tried to keep it a secret at home but that did them no good, James ended up spoiling it when he saw them snogging on the platform before Victoire's last year of Hogwarts!" Lily exclaimed and everyone laughed.
"Wait!" Hermoine got a weird look on her face and then the kids realized their mistake but it was too late. "Who is Teddy related to then? He seems like a cousin but can't be if he's dating Victoire."
"True," Freddie agreed but even he had adopted a sullen expression like the rest of his cousins.
"I really wish you hadn't asked that," Said Dominique.
Ron's exclamation of "Why?" was drowned out by Tonks, "He's mine isn't he?"
The past took this to be true when all the future kids cringed. They turned towards Tonks with bright smiles. Hermoine smacked herself for not realizing this when he changed his hair colour the night before. When none of the future kids joined in the past turned towards them with concerned expressions. Tonks spoke again with a question that chilled everyone with the calmness she asked it even though her eyes filled with tears, "And I die?"
The future people looked at each other avoiding the eyes of past people who were turning more and more pale by each passing second as the truth sunk in. Tonks was crying but it was more for Teddy then herself, Lupin held her shoulders and Sirius held his.
James finally broke the silence, "Teddy's going to kill us!"
"Damn right I am," Teddy stepped into the room. His hair had turned a sickly grey and his skin had become ghostly so when he looked up people gasped at the contrast between his body and bright eyes. The colour was the exact shade as Remus's. Everyone realized who his father was and his parent's fate when they saw the amber outlined by a shell of a boy.
Guys I'm so sorry! It's been a long time and this is a short sucky chapter. I am going to finish this story I just need to figure out how so it might be slow going for awhile. Hope you understand, I'll update as soon as I can get myself together :) -OEL
