Rewind Time

Chapter 8

Aurora poured two very large glasses of Firewhiskey for the ashen faced men. Marvolo had laid it all out there. Aurora had told them of the war and how everyone died. Finding out their children and grandchildren died, that seemed to be an eye opener. 

Abraxes cleared his throat, "Lady Emrys Peverell Sayre, why are you helping us? Our sons caused you so much pain" Thoros could only nod in agreement.

"Both of you may call me Aurora. I'm helping because I know that you want to protect your history. You want to protect and practice the Old Ways. I can help that happen without the bloodshed. War will destroy our world, destroy innocents."

Marvolo took her hand, "The bills I've drawn up will help us suceed without war. With my votes and Auroras, we can push legislation, but we need your votes and a few more to have majority"

Thoros eyes widen, "How many votes do you hold?" he looked between the two.

"Slytherin and Ravenclaw hold six seats." Marvolo grinned, when Aurora nodded, he said "Emrys, Peverell and Sayre hold thirteen seats"

Abraxes choked, "Between you both, you hold the majority of a sector!" Looking to Aurora, he asked "What sector holds your seats"

"Neutral" she smiled sweetly.

"That removes Dumbledore as Chief Warlock. The light sector holds majority, but your seats will give that power to the Neutral!" Thoros couldn't believe this, they could actually win now.

"Who could we push for Chief Warlock? Who do we have in the Neutral sector?" Marvolo asked. 

"Greengrass. He shares our views but holds a stance closer to Auroras" Abraxes tells them.

Marvolo nods, looking to Aurora he notices a far-off look. "Aurora" he gets her attention, "Is Greengrass an acceptable candidate?"

"Yes, sorry" Aurora clears her throat. "I fought with his granddaughters in the war. Flashbacks" Marvolo squeezes her hand.

Everyones heads jerk to the door when it bangs open.

"Rora! Look what" Sirius and Regulus halt. They look to the men in the room, cautious.

Aurora moves to them, "It's alright boys, we were just chatting" She calms them down. "Now, what were you wanting to show me?"

Sirius looks behind her once more before pulling his arms around to the front. "It's a baby crup! Can we keep him?" they both give her sad eyes, "Please" they beg.

"The kneazles like him already" Regulus adds. 

Marvolo tries to cover his chuckle with a cough. He knew she wouldn't deny the boys. The curious looks his friends were giving him made him shrug his shoulders. 

"Call for Tilly and have her help you get a spot ready. I'll be out in a few" Aurora barely caught herself when two little bodys and a baby crup tackled her.

"Thank you Rora!" Both boys called out as they ran from the room.

Turning, she caught the curious looks coming from Abraxes and Thoros. "What"

"Are those Orion and Walburga's children" Abraxes asked.

Marvolo moved to her, "Those boys are mine" she hissed.

"Aurora is fostering the boys. Walburga was going to strike Sirius in the middle of a store, but Aurora stopped her. Orion decided it was smart to let her foster the boys" Marvolo explained. 

Thoros jaw dropped. "She was going to hit him?" Purebloods loved their children, with how hard it was for them to conceive, most tended to spoil them.
