Managing Mischief

Chapter 1: The Wisp Twins

      On September 1st standing in the middle of Kings Cross station stood one of the most famous wizarding worlds families: The Potters. The story of the Potters was known far and wide. On Halloween night in 1981, Voldemort thought his victory was certain and hadn't the slightest inkling of what waited for him inside the cottage in Godric's Hollow. The Order had been given warning of Voldemort's planned attack and were ready to ambush. Not only did the Potters survive that night and become instant legends, but Voldemort's reign of terror had finally come to an end.

With the Potters stood two other members of the order; Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. Also famous in their own rights. Remus after the Order had gone on to write books on lycanthropy and change the perception of the disease. He had done wonders for the werewolf community as a whole, though there was also help from a mysterious source in the ministry working on changing laws surrounding them. Remus had tried on many occasions to figure out who this mystery figure was to thank them and help change laws with them but alas he was unable to figure out the identity of the helper in the shadows.

Sirius Black on the other hand, was finally able to live a quieter, more peaceful life. After his horrendous childhood and the war he wanted nothing more than to live a laid back life with his family: the Potters and Remus. Though there always seemed to be a piece of his soul missing. Something he and Remus shared.

In their last year at Hogwarts they had found their mate with Nicola "Nikki" Prewett. She was beautiful and neither boy could believe they had spent six years going to the same school with her and had never noticed her till then. Sirius would always claim (and would always maintain) that it was because she was always in the library or had her nose stuck in a book. She was a tall, leggy redhead, who they would have sworn had fallen to earth from heaven. She was ethereal, a goddess among men. She was the type of woman that brought men to their knees longing and begging to pray and worship at her feet; the kind of woman men wrote epics about and went to war for. What made this discovery worse was when Sirius realized she was the other beater on the Gryffindor quidditch team with him, both having replaced her older twin brothers Fabian and Gideon Prewett after they graduated.

The thruple's love story had been just as beautiful as her but as all things go it had come to an end. She disappeared from their lives after graduation. They tried to find her but it was as if she had never existed. After the war they tried again to find her, but any leads they thought they found came to an immediate dead end.

So here Remus and Sirius stood with Lily and James Potter preparing to send off their godson Harry to his third year of Hogwarts. Or at least make sure he made it onto the Hogwarts express alive. James was a notorious sap and it had gotten worse after Harry was born. Every year James would become a weeping mess and smother his son.

"I'm going to miss you so much, Prongslette!" James wailed loudly, much to the group's dismay and worse Harry's embarrassment. For at that exact moment the Wisp twins, Aries and Leo, were walking by. They were best friends with the Weasley twins and just as mischievous. The four of them, with Lee Jordan, were the biggest pranksters in the school, and in Harry's opinion put the marauders to shame; though he would never admit that out loud to his father and uncles.

"Prongs! You're gonna kill the boy! Ease up on the hug, I don't think he's breathing anymore!" Sirius exclaimed with a bark of laughter.

This stopped the Wisp twins in their tracks. A mischievous glint in their eye as they looked at each other.

"There's no way-" Aries whispered to his brother.

"James Potter could be that Prongs. Right?" Leo asked, whispering back to his older brother.
