The Twins Who Lived

Change of Heart

Dahlia and Harry shared a look as An*** spoke in their heads, they hadn't agreed to showing this next memory. Dear Merlin, they sure did hope their family didn't think differently of them they only just got them back and they didn't want to lose them already.

The Slytherins headed down to the common room after dinner, the girls laughing as Phineas did a mock impression of draco's morning routine. They entered the common, Draco fake pouting as they entered, they stopped seeing two upperclassmen standing in front of them, Dahlia had a bad feeling creeping in. Phineas's and Theo's jaws tightened, unconsciously moving slightly in front of Dahlia, Daphne and Pansy, they had a feeling about what this was about and Merlin would be damned before they let the girls get harmed. The two upper class men had sneers on their faces, staring at Dahlia like she was scum.

"If so much as a hair on her head is hurt, their dead. I don't care if this is the future" James growled out. "Flint, Pucey. Those look like your sons. If it is and they so much as land a spell near her... You'll both be losing the ability to have any kids" Regulus said, his voice eerily calm his eyes giving way to the murderous rage he was feeling.

Dahlia patted phineas's arm in thanks before walking in front of him, staring at the two with an air of calm indifference. Harry so owed her, they had been warned about the current state of Slytherin, Harry said it would take a month before they did anything, she had said it would take less then. 'You owe me a Sunflower' she told Harry briefly, neither of them needed money so they didn't bet with money, they bet in their favorite hobbies. If she had lost, she would have baked for him, but since he lost, he owed her an enchanted Sunflower, her brother was getting very good at enchanting. Harry groaned through the bond before sending a mental nod 'don't go easy on them. Make an example' Harry told her, she sent a mental nod back. "- You don't belong in our noble house Mudblood. You taint this house with your filthy blood, and you destroyed the Dark Lord" Marcus Spat, gripping his wand with a Sneer. She watched them, having missed the first half of his triad while talking with her brother. "You should have stayed dead with your Traitorous and Mudblood loving parents." Pucey continued, staring at her like she was less than dirt. Her eyes flashed briefly, her eyes narrowing, one thing she would not tolerate was disrespect against her parents, her parents sacrificed everything for her and Harry, nothing would allow her to accept this abuse.

Harry gave majority control of the Slytherin Common Room, knowing she would be there more than him. $𝑯𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝑻𝒉𝒆𝒎$ she hissed, looking at the stone Snakes that stood guard by the dormitory entrances, the stone creaked and shook as they came to life for the first time in decades. They circled around their intended targets for a moment before wrapping around them tightly, Restricting their air ways slightly. "See, I'm a very easy person to get along with. Not much gets me mad" she said as if having a normal conversation, circling around the pair. "But insulting my parents... The people who sacrificed their lives for me.. Now that makes me madder than anything. Now before I handle your behavior let's set some things straight. First off, I'm a Pureblood, even without my mother's true heritage which I am not obligated to tell you. Even without that, since both of my fathers are Purebloods, it removes any "Taint" in my blood, not that there is any to begin with. Secondly, no one and I mean absolutely no one will be talking Ill of my parents. They gave their lives, they loved me and my brother, while you two can't even get a informal hello from your parents" she sneered at them as she circled around them. $𝑩𝒖𝒓𝒏 𝒉𝒊𝒎 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑭𝒓𝒆𝒆𝒛𝒆 𝑩𝒖𝒓𝒏 𝒉𝒊𝒎$ she hissed, pointing to each of them in turn, she watched as Flint began breaking out in painful blisters, each one worser than the last.

Pucey wasn't much better, painful frostbite would seek into random parts of his body before disappearing, leaving behind the pain. She ignored their creams and shrieks, allowing it to continue for another 10 minutes. Finally she cancelled the spells, crouching down by them, she slit their hands open followed by her own. "Look at that. We all bleed red, Regardless of Blood Status or Magic. Our Blood is all Red. Blood has no mean outside of Blood Magic. What matters is Power and Magic. Your either powerful or your not, no amount of inbreeding will change that outcome." She said coldly before nodding to the two stone snakes, letting the boys drop. "Take them to the Infirmary. They seem to have had a spell misfire" she told the perfect calmly, The Perfects nodded, immediately helping the pair away, the warning clear. Blaise watched her go up to her dorm, already feeling the beginnings of a crush. Dahlia remained unaware now but in time she would learn, her actions today began a change in the snake house, a historic change that would see a new era for the hated house.
