Silent, but still there

Returns and kidnappings

Sirius, Remus and Severus made their way up the Potters driveway. It had been ten years since they had last set foot in Britain.

Sirius and Remus went out to discover the world and connect with Remus' more wolfish side. They decided that since they actually didn't have a lot of information on the werewolves other than the things Dumbledore had told him. Therefore they went to the werewolf pack where Fenrir Greyback resided. Greyback was the wolf that bit him, so they had a connection of some sort. Remus became like a cub to him, since he was still considered quite young amongst the werewolves.

Long story short, they resided with them for ten years and learned so much. Remus connected more with his inner wolf, and Sirius was with him every step of the way. They ended up getting married four years into their journey.

Severus on the other hand had travelled with his husband and son all over the world, researching potion ingredients and making new potions for both healing and other necessities. They had been on the move for ten years also. It was not planned, but it just kind of happened. This benefitted all of them though. Severus' son learned from all over the world and got to see how his dad worked. He also gained many useful skills and life experiences. Severus' husband benefitted also from this. He made connections all over the world, this could only benefit Britain in the long run.

It was by coincidence that they all met at the end of the driveway. They looked at each other and took each other in. Remus then decided that maybe he should break the silence before tension sat in.

"It is good to see you again Severus." Remus went forward and shook hands with Severus. This made the corners of Severus' mouth turn up. He couldn't keep it in anymore and actually smiled at them. Shook his head, and went over to hug them both. Sirius and Remus were shocked, he had never initiated physical contact before. When the shock disappeared, they all just stood there and smiled each other.

"Are you okay?" Sirius asked slightly amused. Severus shook his head, grin still intact.

"yeah, it's just that I haven't seen you in such a long time, plus travelling the world with my husband and son may have softened me a bit." The last part was murmured into his hand, but the others still heard it. Remus grinned and asked him about his travels. They conversed for a while until they remembered why they were there in the first place.

"So, none of us seen the twins in ten years?" Sirius' brow creased while he thought about. "Last time we saw them they were one and could barely walk."

None of them had knowledge about the supposed Girl-who-lived, they only knew about the defeat of Voldemort.

"I wonder how they are. We missed the part where they grew up and got a personality." They all shared a look at Sirius' statement.

"Well, only one way to find out." Remus led them up to the door and knocked. They could already hear all the people inside. It was quite a lot of them. They looked at each other with arched eyebrows. Why would there be this many people to two kids birthday party?

It only took seconds before the door was opened by the friendly face of Lily Potter. She squealed and gathered them all in a hug. She began to talk their ear of about all that they missed. About how Hannah defeated You-know-who, how she spoke her first word, her first time riding a broom, her first kid wand. This went on and on. Soon they knew almost all of Hannah's accomplishments, but they noticed that Lily never once mentioned Hadrian.

While Lily talked, they scanned the place and saw a lot of important people there. People they didn't even think the Potters knew, let alone the children.

A scream interrupted them. Soon they found themselves with and armful of an eleven-year-old girl named Hannah. She was soon followed by two other girls, one they recognized as a Weasley and another they presumed was new to the wizarding world. She had a gorgeous dress on and a tiara which was bedazzled by jewels.
