Jamie  shot straight up looking wildly around in the darkness. Her breath was short and quick, as if she had just ran a full marathon. Sweat plastered her long red hair to her face and neck, and her hands were shaking violently. That poor woman, she must be dead. That man killed her. She tried to erase the image of the cloaked man out of her mind, but every time she blinked, all she saw was the blinding flash of green light. Taking a deep breath and closing her eyes, Jamilyn began counting up to five. One... two... three... four... five.

"Jamie?" asked a sleepy voice from beside her. "Jamie are you okay?" It was Harvey "Harry Potter", one one of her wombmates Jamie's triplet brothers, the other one is Alexander "Alex" there's her little sister, Josephine "Josie." They have older twins siblings, name is Samuel "Sam" and Suzanne "Susie."

Samuel and Suzanne (twins), Harry, Alex, and Jamie (triplets), and their llittle sister, Josephine have been living with their Aunt, Uncle, and cousins all their lives. Their parents were killed when they were just babies or toddlers in a car crash, or so their relatives have told them. Somehow, the Potter siblings had both survived. While Jamie managed to escape without at scratch, Harry and Alex received a lightning bolt scars, Susie and Sam was down stairs hiding in a closet, they also knows the truth.Their relatives had forbidden the triplets and Josephine from asking any questions about their parents, tell them so the car crash was all they had of their parents, besides each other. Sam and Susie secretly tell them some things about them

Unfortunately for the children, their relatives, the Dursleys were not exactly the warmest of people. They were cruel and horrible to the children never missing an opportunity to torment them, except Rose, she treat them like family. As part of their harsh treatment, besides the endless chores and mean remarks, the triplets were forced to sleep together, in the small cupboard under the stairs, while the twins and Josephine sleep a room on the third floor. It was fine when they were both younger, but now that the triplets were almost reaching 11 years of age, the cupboard was beginning to get rather cramp for the three of them, even if they were small for their age, the children is okay with their rooms. There was only enough room to fit a small mattress and nothing else, while the room on the third floor can fit two bunk beds and two single beds.

Jamie sighed. "I'm fine," she said quietly, and laid back down on the bed looking up at the bottom of the staircase. The flash of green light was fading away. Counting to five had been a trick Harry had taught her. Only give fear five seconds and nothing more. Jo's breathing had slowed down and her hands were no longer shaking. Alex woke up with the movement of his wombmates. He look at both of them.

"It was that nightmare again, wasn't it?" Alex asked, rubbing his eyes and yawning. Harry and Alex looked at each other than at Jamie.

Jamie looked over at her brothers and couldn't help but smile as they squinted at her. Harry had horrible eyesight and could rarely see anything without his glasses. Even though he was laying right beside Alex and Jo, knew they only looked like a blur to their brother. Jamie reached over to their shelves of little belongings and grabbed Harry's glasses, handing them over to him. "Here," she sighed, "And yeah, the very same one."

"Thanks," Harry said graciously, putting his glasses on. There was tape on the brim of the glasses, no doubt from being broken a dozen or so times by their bully of a cousin. "Well, you're awake now," Harry said. "and safe with us," said Alex, giving their sister a wink. Jamie smiled in return. Harry and Alex  was truly the best brothers and their older siblings and their little sister Sam Susie and Josie, she couldn't imagine going through anything with the Dursleys without them, while protecting Josie. They the only thing that got her through each and every day of hell.

A thumping noise came from upstairs and Jamie groaned. "They're alive, sadly, but at least Sam and Susie  home from school..."

Harry and Alex gave a small chuckle. "Better get ourselves ready," Harry said, and grabbed the bed sheet to make a barrier in between the three. "Before they throw a fit." Alex finished.
