Present Mixed in the Past

Chapter 11| One Saved

Harry had slept well, despite the fact that he and Ron shared a room. The red-haired boy was a little too enthused about proclaiming their friendship, much to Potter's amusement. He had let it slide with him commenting on how he wanted to be friends with many people.

Bouncing down the stairs, he grinned as he saw the twins in the tower.

"Hola, Senors." He hummed lowly, sitting in front of them.

It was still early in the morning, breakfast not going to be served for a short while. Long enough for the old soul to get the information that he wanted.

The twins chuckled as they saw the look their little brother was giving them. They knew what he wanted, and it was all the more amusing to see him basically squirm. It would seem going back in time had destroyed his ability to mask his emotions. Then again, he was a child once more.

"I told and showed him everything." George admitted easily, getting a slight disappointed look from the smaller.

The two laughed, grinning some. It wasn't long before they began talking about their new abilities, though they gave confused looks as Harry told them about his Creature inheritance.

"We've never heard of that." Fred hummed, looking to his brother, who just shrugged.

"Maybe it's rare?" George offered, both of them looking to the younger of them.

The boy-who-lived nodded, holding his thinking look. He was trying to remember if the current Life said anything about this. She might've, maybe implied it?

"I think it's rare, maybe it only shows for Purebloods and those close to it?"

The three of them shrugged as if they weren't going to scourer the school library. The twins did have the Library Master's favor this time around, so they could go into even the forbidden sections. They found that having her favor was most handy as they were able to think up many new ideas for potions, charms, and what have you because of their research into such spells. Anyway, they were sure they could find something on the issue in the school library, and if not, then they would just have to wait for the Black Library.

"Well, it's-" The red twin started.

"Nearly time-" The green twin continued.

"For breakfast, we-"

"Are looking forward-"

"To seeing you-"

"Around, old friend." The twins harmonized with a smirk before they turned and strolled out of the room.

Harry chuckled at them, a sweet smile on his innocent lips. It felt like everything was going right. The twins were together again, happy and causing mischief just because the hat sorted them differently. He hoped that whatever venture that they were up to about Neville didn't cause any harm. He quite liked Neville; he was like another brother to him besides the Weasley twins.

"I can't believe the teachers just allow those two to walk about." A pitched voice hissed.

The good mood the old soul was in dimmed some, his smile faltering. He did however straighten his back and relied on some things that Draco was able to teach him about being a Pureblood, seeing as he would have some seats in Wizengamot. The blond's teachings have helped the savior many times from lashing out, especially after what Ron did to his surrogate sister.

"They aren't breaking any rules. They are quite friendly." The black-haired boy gave the other simple nod before he looked behind the red-haired boy. "It seems breakfast is about to be served; we should meet with the others." A tight lip smile was rewarded to the other before the smaller boy walked off to talk with the others in his year.
