So I accidentally unpublished the whole series and I had to republish it.
It was night at number four Privet Drive. Mr. and Mrs. Dursley were fast asleep with their two year old son, Dudley, pampered and eyes closed.
Anyone who knew the Dursley's knew that they did not only tolerate nonsense but tried to put out any source. The thing is that Mrs. Dursley's sister Mrs. Potter was in her eyes complete nonsense.
On the street, all that could be heard was the sound of a cat. A quite out of place cat at that.
Suddenly out of nowhere, a man with a large grey beard and robes on appeared. He took a sort of object and the light of the street slowly attracted to it. He looked at the cat for a moment and said, "Fancy seeing you here Professor McGonagall."
"Oh, Albus, you can't let the children stay here. The people who live here are horrid. They are no one for our kind to be living with. The two are celebrated in our world. I wouldn't be surprised if I'm the future today is known as Rebecca and Harry Potter Day."
"That is the precise reason why they must stay here. As well they are their only family."
"I know but Albus, why can't they be given to a nice wizarding family?"
"The day will come when I can assure you that they will need their relatives. Now Hagrid should be arriving with our so called packages soon enough."
"Albus, are you sure you should trust him with something this important?"
"I would trust Hagrid with my life." About then a headlight from the sky blared on a motorcycle and a large man came off it with two blankets wrapped up.
"Hagrid, May I see them please?" said Albus.
"O course. Professor," said Hagrid.
Suddenly a man with long black hair appeared and with a few tears in his eyes said, "How are the twins?"
"They are fine, Severus," assured Albus, "Your goddaughter is asleep."
The man called Severus walked to the baby girl and whispered, "I'll see you in 11 years Rebecca Lily Potter."
He then asked Albus, "Are you sure that they will safe here?"
"They will be safe." And with that Severus disappeared.
McGonagall looked at the twins. A lightning shaped scar was implanted on both the babies. On the boys forehead and the girl's neck. "Is that where...?" whispered McGonagall.
"Yes, they will have those forever."
McGonagall then spoke again, "Albus, he's killed thousands of people. How could he not kill these two babies?"
"I am afraid I cannot say, Minerva, but the time will come for you to know."
Hagrid then began to cry, "Could I could I say good-bye to them, sir?"
He let out a howl but McGonagall quieted him. Hagrid apologized, "S-s-sorry. But so c-c-can't stand it. Lily an' James dead an' poor little Rebecca and Harry off ter live with muggles."
Dumbledore picked up the twins an set them in a large basket with a letter. "That will be all," and he, McGonagall, and Hagrid left.
The next morning Mrs Dursley went to get the paper but instead was two babies. While the twins were poked and prodded by their older cousin, in the streets, wizards were raising glasses to Rebecca and Harry Potter, the girl and boy who lived.
