The Twins Who Lived

Substitute

"What villains are these to trespass upon my private lands? Who dares challenge Sir Cadogan? Back, you scurvy blackguards. You-" Sir Cadogan yelled before falling backwards to the floor. "Honestly, I pity you guys" Daphne said as they walked past the gryffindor entrance. "Paravarti has taken to sleeping with padma in the Ravenclaw dorms" Hermione said, dahlia's eyes lit up, an idea forming in her head, she waited until lunch before she standing up on the table, making sure no food was near her. She whistled loudly, everyone turned to look, knowing when she spoke, it normally meant something good, "alright, as everyone knows, Elizabeth the gryffindor's darling portrait was harmed, as such they currently have Sir Cadogan, who is.... Esentric to say the least. As such, until their darling  portrait is finished, I hereby open the Slytherin Common room to any who do not wish to deal with him" She said. Terry Boot stood up on the Ravenclaw table "Ravenclaw opens their common room too!" He said, Cedric stood on his table "Hufflepuff does too!" He said.

"And that was the start of the Grand Hogwarts Refuge Sleepover of '93." Hermione smiled, the teachers shared a look, this group had made school unity a true thing, they hadn't seen any rivalries, aside from quidditch in the beginning but that had been taken care of by them already.

{The scene changed, to the Defense Classroom}

Snape walked into the classroom, his cloak billowing behind him as he walked to the front, waving his wand, he closed all of the Window shutters. "Turn to page 394." Snape drawled, Dahlia looked confused before opening to the correct page, seeing what the page was about left a pit of dread filling her stomach, Werewolves. "Excuse me, sir. Where's Professor Lupin?" Susan asked, "That's not really your concern, is it, Bones? Suffice it to say that your professor finds himself incapable of teaching at the present time. Turn to page 394." Snape drawled, his tone slightly cold, Dahlia frowned at her Uncle. "Werewolves?" Seamus asked, confused "But sir, we've just begun learning about Red Caps and Hinkypunks. We're not meant to start nocturnal beasts for weeks." Hermione tried, already suspecting what Snape was trying to do, and she knew how mad it would make her friends. "Quiet." Snape said sharply, now Harry was starting to get mad too. "Now, which one of you can tell me the difference between an Animagus and a werewolf?" Snape asked, looking around at the assortment of hands, "Ms.Black" Snape called on, "an Animagus is a witch or wizard who can change into an animal at will after going through a process. A werewolf has no choice, if done incorrectly he loses himself to his werewolf side each full moon. Animagus can be around werewolves as werewolves only attack humans. It is similar to being under an imperio, the human not knowing what he does while under affects, he could hurt people... Kill people and the human wouldn't know" she explained, she noted that Snape seemed unpleased by her defense of werewolves and even more so with the fact everyone else agreed.

"Why are you getting so mad Sweetie?" Lily asked confused, "it explains it" Dahlia said

"Page 394. The term "werewolf" is a contraction of the Anglo-Saxon word "were," which means "man," and "wolf." "Werewolf." "Man-wolf." There's several ways to become a werewolf. They Include being given the power of shapeshifting, being bitten by a werewolf and being born in to..." Severus taught, the scene fading out before changing to a stormy quidditch pitch.

"That's the worst conditions have gotten. Why didn't it end?" James asked worried, even he wouldn't play in those conditions, it was too risky. "Everyone believed they could get through it" Dahlia said Dryly.

"Go, Harry! Go, Harry!" Hermione cheered, Dahlia was on the edge of her seat, gripping the seat tightly. Lightning strikes a player, the back of their broom catching fire and sending the student to the ground. Harry fights the strong wind and rain, looking for the snitch. He follows Cedric up and around the stands. Cedric is struck by lightning just before reaching the snitch, sending him falling down and away. As Harry looks for the snitch, a cloud in the shape of the Grim is illuminated by lightning. The cloud fades and the snitch appears in front of Harry. He quickly flies after it, As he goes, the tip of his broom begins to freeze.

Lily gripped Regulus and James's arms tightly, fighting the urge to rush over and pull harry into her arms.

Harry continues to evade dementors as he flies away from them, More and more Dementors show up. Suddenly, a Dementor flies in front of Harry, his goggles frosted, The Dementor begins to feed, knocking Harry out.

Lily screamed, in horror, watching her son fall, unknowingly mimicking her daughter's onscreen scream.

Harry plummented to the ground, Dahlia screamed loudly, fear rushing through her. Both dragons shot off from their perches, racing to him, Noir caught him first, gently bringing them down to the ground. The last thing shown was dahlia's glowing eyes full of  fury.

"What did you do little star?" Regulus asked, I simply sent a holler to the ministry, demanding they remove the dementors or I'll be suing the ministry with the full weight of our houses" Dahlia said simply.

"He looks a bit peaky, doesn't he?" Ron said, "Yeah, come on, Ron, let's walk you off the Astronomy Tower and see what you look like." Fred said with a smirk. "Probably a right sight better than he normally does." Harry Teased, waking up. Dahlia hugged him tightly, shaking slightly "I'm ok lia, I'm ok" he whispered, hugging her just as tight. "What happened? Harry asked, confused, "Well, you fell off your broom." Ron said, "Really? I meant the match. Who won?" Harry asked, "you did, your hand was wrapped around the snitch when Noir brought you down." Dahlia explained. "What about my broom?" Harry asked "it broke haz, messed up. We'll get you a new one" Dahlia said softly.
