Chapter 3

Malibu, California

"Malibu? This is where Toni lives? Why don't we live here?" Clint asked, in shock.

Pepper shook her head laughing, unaware of the odd looks she was getting. "It's because it's destroyed."

Over at the adult table, Orion discreetly nodded his head in approval knowing that even a disgraceful daughter like Regulus could have good taste in living and she wasn't living around many muggles.

Toni stood in her lab, listening to music as she worked with a three year old Peter beside her with a tablet in his hand.

"Whoa." Hermione gushed. "Look, look, Ronald!"

"Hermione, love, I see it." Ron laughed, nervously, wondering if he should be worried about the missing Black daughter, stealing his girlfriend when she arrived.

He should.

Picking up the circuit board she was working on, she carefully handed it to Peter who set it down as she picked up something else.

"Give me an exploded view." She muttered.

Suddenly a voice spoke up as the view on her screen began to change. ''The compression in cylinder there seems to be low."

"Holy shit! What was that?" Barty screamed in shock, as most pure-bloods and some half-bloods looked in either fear, shock or fascination.

"Not the time Barty."

"Right."

"Jarvis was an Al who mom built in tribute after her late butler/ Uncle Jarvis." Carina said. Some caught the way she said was instead of is which made them wonder what could've happened to the AI.

Many also couldn't help but be mesmerized by the technology, even some pure-bloods wondered just how far back their world really was.

"Log that." She said, not noticing Pepper walking into the room until she had turned off Toni's music.

Pepper was on the phone, she seemed to be arguing with someone. "I'm going to try again, right now."

Peter gave the woman a smile and a wave to which Pepper smiled and nodded in return since Toni had not even glanced up as she continued to work. "Please, don't turn down my music." Toni said.

"I'll keep you posted." Pepper said, before hanging up and walking toward Toni and Peter, giving the young boy a small hug before turning to the woman. "You are supposed to be halfway around the word."

"How'd she take it?" Toni asked, as she lifted up a piece she was working on.

"Like a champ." Pepper replied.

Still not looking at her, Toni sighed. "Why are you trying to hustle me out of here? Me and Petey, we're having some mommy-son time."

"Mommy-son time for me consists of me being put under the Cruciatus Curse." Evan smiled, as Dorcas turned to him in concern.

"You need to see a therapist."

"I know you aren't talking Mrs Daddy issues." Pandora snickered, while Dorcas's jaw dropped.

"Good one Eviepoo..."

"Jump off a cliff Bartemius." Rabastan looked at the man in shock.

"Who hurt you, dude."

"Clearly my mom."

"It's okay, big bro, I know how you feel." The twins smiled at each other, making Rabastan shake his head.
