A Hogwarts Reunion

The Past

The war had ended and Voldemort had been defeated. The Chosen One Harry Potter became an Auror and got married to the love of his life Ginny Weasley. Together they had three beautiful children. A daughter named Lily Luna Potter and two sons, James Sirius Potter, and Albus Severus Potter. War hero Ron Weasley also became an Auror and married Lavender Brown. They have two children Rose Tessa Weasley and Hugo Adam Weasley. The only one not accounted for was Hermione Granger. The war heroine, and the brains of the golden trio, had disappeared from the wizarding world without a trace. Coincidentally her good friend Luna Lovegood had also vanished from the wizarding world. After the war had ended the remaining death eaters had been rounded up and majority of them were sentenced to live in Azkaban. Draco Malfoy did not have to go to Azkaban after it was revealed that he was under the imperius curse. His mother also did not have to go since she was responsible for saving Harry Potter's life. Draco's best mates Blaise Zabini and Theodore Nott were also off the hook since they didn't really help Voldemort that much. However their parents, much like Malfoy's dad Lucius, were sentenced to life in Azkaban for being a devoted follower of Voldemort. With nothing left for them in the wizarding world the three of them left and started a life in the muggle world. They are now the richest men in both the muggle and wizarding world after starting their own international line of hotels. The Emerald Snake located all around Europe, The Sapphire Raven which is mainly based in the US, and the Golden Badger all throughout Australia. Many people wondered if there was any connection between the hotel line and the designer store The Ruby Lion which was also located in Europe. Wondering about it themselves the three boys decided to check it out for themselves. One day the wondered into the store and was quite shocked to see who was there.

Flashback

"You guys ready to go?" Draco Malfoy asked his friends Blaise Zabini and Theodore Nott. "Absolutely," Blaise replied followed by a "Can't wait for a fresh start," from Theodore Nott. The three of them left to the muggle world and created their own business. The most successful hotel chain in both the muggle world and wizarding world. One day Malfoy was helping a customer when they struck up a conversation. "Welcome to the Emerald Snake Hotel," Malfoy said with a smile. "Thank you very much," the customer replied with a smile. "This is a very lovely place," the customer said. "Thank you, my partners and I were very excited to design it," Malfoy replied. "Does it have any connection to The Ruby Lion designer store?" the customer questioned. "The what?" Malfoy asked confused. The customer who he'd been helping pulled out the designer catalog and handed it to him. "You can keep it. I have more in my bag," the customer replied before grabbing her stuff and going to her room. Just then Theodore and Blaise walked in. "What are you looking at?" Blaise questioned. "A catalog given to me by a customer," Draco replied. "Well is it any good?" Theodore asked. "Yes. It has some really good designs in it. We should go check it out," Draco said "Well what's it called?" Blaise asked. "The Ruby Lion. It's the one everyone wonders if it has any connection to our hotel chain," Draco replied. "Alright! Let's go then," Theodore said. With that they went to Blaise's car and got in. After a 15 minute drive they had finally arrived at The Ruby Lion. They opened the door with a bell chiming signaling someone was there. They took a look around at all the dresses, pants, and blouses. "Be right with you," a voice called from the back. The boys continued to have a look around when a woman walked out. "How may I help you?" she asked. They guys backs were turned to her so she couldn't see their faces. "Granger?" they said in unison turning around with shocked faces. Hermione looked at them mouth a gape with an equally shocked face. "Hermione can you look at this new design and see what you think?" a new voice asked. "Lovegood?" Blaise questioned. The new woman finally looked up. "Well this is a sight," she said shocked to see the three former Slytherins standing in their store. "Anyways, how can we help you?" Hermione asked again after getting over the initial shock. "Nothing we were just curious as to what this place was since so many of our customers have asked if there was any connection between our shops," Theodore replied. "You guys are the owners of the hotels, I'm assuming," Luna acknowledged. "That is correct," Draco replied. "What brought you to the muggle world?" asked Hermione. "When all our trials and our parents trials had concluded we realized that there wasn't anything left for us in the wizarding world so we decided to get a fresh start. We moved here and started the hotel chain. The Emerald Snake is 15 minutes away from here and the house that we share is around 10 minutes from the hotel." responded Blaise. "What about you guys? What made you guys leave?" asked Theodore. "Well on Ron and I's anniversary I caught him in our bed with another woman so I left and went to the Leaky Cauldron. There I ran into Luna and she asked what was wrong and I told her what had happened," Hermione said. I then asked if she would like to accompany me to the muggle world since I was already planning on moving. She said yes and here we are," Luna finished. "You guys should come over and see the hotels sometime," Draco said. "We definitely will sometime," Luna said with a smile. "It was great catching up with you guys, but we should get going." Theodore said. "Alright. We'll see you guys soon then," Hermione said waving to them as they left. "Well that was certainly interesting," Luna said to Hermione. All Hermione could do was nod her head.

Being reunited with the old acquaintances a wonderful friendship began. The five of them started to hang out more often and it eventually became more. Draco and Hermione started seeing each other and so did Blaise and Luna. Theodore being annoyed that both of his roommates had new found lovers decided he'd dedicate his time to the hotel. However that changed when Pansy Parkinson stumbled into the hotel looking for a place to stay. Excited to see an old friend she soon joined him with the two couples. Over the years in the muggle world the six of them became family.
