The Girl Who Lived

Mauraders

"Dinners ready everyone!" Molly yells from the kitchen.

They all shuffle to the kitchen and take their seats at the giant dining room table. Sophia gets sat in between Harry and Fleur. She smelled like flowers and expensive perfume.

"So everyone, wanna hear how Sophia and I met?" Harry asks once they got all of their food.

"Yes dear, why don't you tell us?" Molly says sweetly.

"So the craziest thing happened, Vernon's sister, Veronica, came over with Sophia but we had no idea who each other were because she always came alone. We went up to my room because Veronica wasn't happy with both of us being there. She saw a picture of our parents and pulled her wand out. We started talking and figured out were twins."

"That's so random." Ginny says.

"It is, but why did Veronica decide to bring Sophia to dinner that night?" Hermione says.

"She said she needed me for something." she says.

"Did she ever say what she needed you for?" Percy asked.

"No, I assumed she was going to tell me when we were in the car but she never did."

"Interesting. Do you have any idea what it could be?" Arthur asked.

"Not really. Harry, do you?"

"I heard Vernon and Petunia talking about a family member we might have. I think they said something about my godfather. Maybe he's yours too?" Harry replies.

"Wouldn't your parents decide to have different godparents, considering their many good friends?" Bill asked.

"Who are their good friends?" Harry asked Bill.

"You don't know?" Fred asked.

"No? Can anyone please fill me- us- in on who they are?" Harry said gesturing to the two of you.

"Oh dear, no one ever told you about the mauraders?" Molly asked nervously.

"I remember... Fred! George! That map you gave me in my third year! The Mauraders Map!" Harry said.

"Oh yeah! The map! We don't know who the mauraders are though." Fred says.

"Well, we do." Arthur said looking at Molly.

"Can you tell us?!" George asks impatiently.

"There's four mauraders: Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs. They're all nicknames for the boys who just so happened to go to school at the same time as your father and I." Molly informed.

"Yes, these four boys became very popular at school very fast. You, Harry, know all four but never knew it." Arthur chimes in.

"Well? Who are they?" Harry asks.

Molly and Arthur look at each other nervously before telling everyone at the table.

"Moony is Professor Lupin. Wormtail is Peter Pettigrew, who got disowned by the mauraders after telling He Who Shall Not Be Named where your parents were. Padfoot is our very own Sirius Black- Harry's godfather. And Prongs- well that was good old James Potter." Arthur says.

Harry sits in shock for a moment before turning to you.

"Sophia, do you think Remus could be your godfather?" he says.

"I've never heard his name- I've never heard any of their names, except my dads." she says.

"Guys, I heard something about Lupin being the DADA professor again this year, we need to introduce him to Sophia. He'll definitely know something about her." Ron exclaims.

"Okay, school starts tomorrow. Maybe we could just finish dinner and talk about it tomorrow morning?" Percy says.

"Great idea Percy. Oh, Ginny, Hermione and Sophia will be staying with you tonight. Is that alright?" Molly asks.

"Totally! We're gonna have so much fun!" Ginny says from the other end of the table.

They all continue eating. Sophia sat across from the twins by accident and she can't stop looking at them. They're so interesting, like a puzzle. But not a boring puzzle of a landscape- like a puppy puzzle. They have so much about them that she'd love to figure out and she hoped they felt the same about her.

"So, Sophia, you're a witch, right?" Fleur asks.

"Yeah, I was hoping to go to Hogwarts this year." she says.

"What school did you go to before?"

"Bauxbatons then a wizarding school in the states. I was planning on going back to Bauxbatons this year but now I'm going to Hogwarts."

"Oh my! I went to Bauxbatons!" she says excitedly.

"Really?! That's so cool!" Sophia says.

Sophia and Fleur talk about Bauxbatons until the end of dinner. Everyone goes into the living room for a while and talks. Sophia tells everyone that she's going to go to bed so she walk up the stairs and try to find Ginny's room.

"Having a little trouble, eh?" she heard someone say from the room next to her.

She looks over and see none other than Fred Weasley standing in the doorway. He's wearing a pair of plaid pajama pants and a black hoodie.

"Yeah, I'm trying to find Ginny's bedroom. Can you help me?" she asks him.

"Of course. Follow me." he says, taking her hand.

He leads her to a room with red and gold decorations- just like Harry's at the Dursley's.

"Here it is. Night Sophia."

"Good night Fred."

"Wait, how'd you know it was me and not George?"

"You don't look exactly alike."

"Everyone else would beg to differ."

"I'm not everyone else, am I?" Sophia says and walks in the room and closes the door almost fully.

"Night Weasley." she says with a wink, and shuts the door.
