The Past- Ch 15

September 17, 1971

Aurelius' plan was to transfer Lily and Severus to Durmstrang and then set about dealing with the Horcruxes.

However since he'd promised to set up a meeting with Fenrir and Remus he'd sent an owl to the alpha inviting him to breakfast.

Aurelius was bit curious why Alaric made no real move to deal with his inheritance or chose a residence.

Not that he begrudged the company. In fact for a formerly mad Dark Lord Alaric was an engaging conversationalist and very intelligent.

Aurelius found himself respecting the man…

Fenrir was a lot sexier then Aurelius remembered.

Then again there were how many years difference between Fenrir and Severus' ages?

The man had grey-blue eyes, a definitely yummy build and five-o'clock shadow scruff.

Aurelius groaned, this is what happened when one was celibate. He wanted Lucius…

The man raised his eyebrow, "Do I know ya?"

"I'm not sure. Aurelius Prince."

Fenrir shrugged, "I knew yer brother then, Amphion. No offence meant but he were a disagreeable sort. What ya sent ya meant right? You'll put me in contact with me boy Remus?"

Aurelius nodded, "He agreed to meet with you. He's been convinced you're a bloodthirsty monster. The story he was told was that you had an argument with his father and bit him in revenge."

Fenrir frowned. "Revenge? Nay. Remus were ill. His blood smelt like rot. He were a very powerful wizard that young but he were months from death. I could smell it on him. He had potential to be an Alpha. Alphas are rare in our kind. Raised properly he could be my heir. I've been fighting to gain custody but the Ministry doesn't have him listed. Remus isn't registered. Not all of us be. The registry is new and we resent it. You'd think after 'Hairy Snout, Human Heart' they'd see us differently. Even Scamander thinks poorly of us even if he admited that we don't give birth to werewolves."

"I remember Lily said his mother had cancer. Perhaps, he acquired it that way?"

Fenrir nodded. "I hate ter see kids suffer. Sure being a werewolf ain't perfect but if it keeps them alive long enough ter have a life then I don't much care."

Aurelius had a difficult time matching this man to the man he remembered. "Tell me…why you would hypothetically speaking mind attack a Gringotts curse breaker."

"Curse breaker? How old?"

"Twenty-six."

"Musta acquired a wasting disease. Some times tombs of rich wizards have hidden trap wards that expose one to wasting diseases."

"If he were only scratched but not turned would that make a difference?" Aurelius pressed.

"Biting would heal him from the disease. Musta been interrupted. Scratching would have given him a few more years. A werewolf bite to a wizard in perfect health kills him. The curse attacks the life spirit instead of a disease."

"Are there any female werewolves?"

Fenrir shook his head, "Witches don't survive a bite. A scratch can save their life if they were near death. They'd scar because it's a curse scar but it would be just enough to keep them alive."

Alaric tapped at Aurelius' Occlumency shields.

Aurelius let him in enough to communicate.

'What's this about?'

'Just curious. The Fenrir I knew was mad. He actually killed. I knew two of his last victims. They didn't die that I know of but I wanted to understand more about him.'

'There something odd about Lupin's magic I'm not sure what it is but I'll want to observe their meeting.'

Aurelius gave the impression of consent/impassivity about the idea and closed the connection.

"The meeting is this evening. I thought I would send one of my house elves to retrieve your heir. You can meet here. I am sure there are wards to keep you from entering Hogwarts grounds without informing someone." Aurelius shrugged.

"Well since the meal smells so good and ya were good enough ter invite me, I'll share the meal. I'll return later ta met Remus. What's he like?"

Aurelius chuckled, "Hard working. Loyal. He has the possibility of being a prefect. He has a natural ability as a Beater. His talent seems to lie in the field of Charms. He has a natural affinity for the Dark Creatures and is quite skilled at the Defense Against the Dark Arts. I believe he'll be quite proficient at dueling while Apparating."

"You've only just met him…" Fenrir frowned.

Aurelius shrugged, "I know quite a lot for only two meetings. His mother is still sickly. His father hates him. Remus has a low opinion of himself."

"I want him away from Dumbledore." Fenrir growled.

"I'm transferring my niece and nephew to Durmstrang as soon as I can make the arrangements. I suggest that you consider that as well. They are relatively accepting of werewolves and vampires. They allow them to attend but during their most dangerous time they are asked to be away from school." Aurelius advised.

"He's close ter them?"

"He's friends with them. It might do them good to have a friend there." Aurelius shrugged.

"Hm…"

They turned to more amiable subjects and passed the meal pleasantly.

XoooooX

After breakfast, Aurelius flooed to the international flood centre in London.

It was the magical equivalent of a Muggle Airport like Heathrow.

If one didn't know one's exact destination it was possible to floo nearby.

Especially since Apparating over too great a distance was considered too dangerous. There was something about oceans that disrupted apparition and often one did not reach one's destination alive.

All Aurelius knew from his brief time as a Headmaster and dubious knowledge from Karkaroff was that Durmstrang was in the north somewhere. It was near the village of Durmsøy…

There was a list of destinations and what floo would take one there. Some floo connections were only available for certain times.

He was in luck.

There was a floo connection to Durmsøy at Floo X19 opening in one hour.

Aurelius choose to stay and ordered a coffee.

He then slowly made his way there.

When the floo activated Aurelius walked in.

Commercial floos were different from personal floos.

Ministry floos in the atrium were made to floo you to the destination of your choice provided there was a floo there.

They would send you to the IFC of London if you wished to go abroad.

The IFC and its foreign equivalents were under the jurisdiction of the International Confederation of Wizards rather than individual Ministries.

It was cool in Devonshire about 10 degrees Celsius by Muggle standards but it felt like 6 degrees Celsius here. Karkaroff complained it got as low as -13 degree Celsius in January on average but sometimes worse.

Aurelius vaguely noted that the village of Durmsøy something like Hogsmeade. He weaved through the small crowd and walked up the hill towards the school he noticed that Viktor Krum didn't accurately describe it to Miss Granger.

There was a large medieval looking Hall and a tower along with the castle. The castle seemed to be of a later period. They were somewhat gothic in appearance.

A sturdy boy in a black cloak and the uniform Aurelius remembered seeing the Durmstrangers in often, approached him and addressed him in Russian.

"Excuse me? Are you lost? Can I help you?"

Aurelius' Russian was understandable but it was not his best language despite his acquaintance with Karkaroff, "I am searching for the Highmaster."

"Highmaster? You are not from here."

"I am from Britain. I wish to arrange a transfer."

"Come then."

Aurelius chose to follow him.

"My name is Branislav Krum."

"Aurelius Prince."

"Our Highmaster is Nikolai Tolstoy."

He was led to the Tower.

"This is Strang Tower."

The entered the building and travelled up several flights of stairs to a fifth floor.

"This is the Highmaster's floor." Branislav rapped on the heavy oak door, "Highmaster?"

It was opened.

"Yes?" an older gentleman perhaps a few years older than Walburga and Septimus Weasley said opening the door.

"This is Aurelius Prince. He wishes to speak with you."

"Very well. You best be going now. I don't wish to hear from your fathers about your marks."

"Yes sir."

"I do hope he is not in trouble. I was lost having never been here before and was in need of assistance. He took pity on me." Aurelius said politely.

"He's a good boy, a fine student but he has a tendency to wander off. How can I help you?"

"I am here to arrange a transfer. I recently learned that my niece bore children who are at Hogwarts. They are twins but were raised separately. They are purebloods and have been maligned and mistreated at Hogwarts. Their mother has been branded a blood traitor, the boy is treated as a Halfblood and the girl has been erroneously labelled a Muggleborn. I have here copies of their registry with the British Ministry as purebloods, copies of their status as Prince heir and heiress by Gringotts and the acknowledgement of the Hogwarts Board of Governors as their legal guardian."

"You wish to enrol them here then?" Headmaster Tolstoy asked.

Aurelius nodded.

"Their ages?"

"Both born January 9, 1960 so they will be twelve in less then four months."

"First years then. What classes are they enrolled in at Hogwarts?"

That was easy since Aurelius remembered clearly…

"Charms, Transfiguration, Potions, Astronomy, Herbology, Potions, Defense Against the Dark Arts, History of Magic and both are in Introduction to Magical Theory."

"Hm. It has been some time since we had a transfer from Hogwarts. Beauxbatons courses are quite similar so it doesn't take much work to transfer marks." Headmaster Tolstoy retrieved parchment from a drawer. "First year classes are: Sexual Education for Witches and Wizards, Charms, Transfiguration, Potions, Astronomy, Herbology, Potions, Dark Arts, and History of Magic."

"Sexual education for eleven year olds?" Aurelius frowned, "I believe that was a second year class at Hogwarts."

"Best to start before anyone's hormones kick in. Youngest Wizarding parents on record were ten and eleven. We moved it up a year about thirty years back" Tolstoy shrugged.

Aurelius registered them under their birth names and the names that Hogwarts had their records under. "Very well then. Is there a textbook lists?"

"Yes." Tolstoy shuffled papers. "My apologies usually this list is sent to prospective students by our Associate Highmaster. Our librarian Tara compiles the book list after verifying it with the professors. Whether they attend or not it helps the parents chose the textbooks whose contents are most likely to be tested in the Ministry exams."

Sex and you by Hermia Dacian

An Introduction to the Dark Arts and their Nature by Albean

Albion ? Albus and Gellert? Interesting…had those young men intent on world domination written a book on Dark Arts together? Curious…

"Best place for the books and the uniforms?" Aurelius asked.

"Major centres of Eastern European Wizarding community are in Hamburg in Germany, Samobar in Croatia, Alexanskaya in Russia, Szepes in Slovakia and Tsarevets in northern Bulgaria. All of which are accessibly via floo and I'm sure there are often floo connections through the London International Floo Centre since those are home to their respective ministries." Tolstoy offered.

Aurelius nodded, "How is Durmstrang set up? Being a graduate of Hogwarts, sadly I know nothing about other schools really."

Especially when Viktor's descriptions of Durmstrang didn't match at all. There was no lake and no mountains…the school was built on a cliff and the island was surrounded by ocean.

"I see a pity for our students know at least the names of the Founders of Hogwarts and the Houses." Tolstoy frowned. "Like Hogwarts we have four Houses, yet neither are named for our founders. House Hróðvitnir has the symbol the wolf. I believe you would consider it a mixture of Slytherin and Gryffindor. It's virtues are facing death with dignity and courage, instinct linked with intelligence, value of society and family, skill in protection, the outwitting of enemies, the ability to pass unseen and the taking advantage of change."

"Interesting." That reminded him of Remus oddly enough…

"House Hræsvelgr is symbolised the Eagle and represents swiftness, strength, courage, wisdom. As well as the lesson of staying grounded when soaring high. Also how to look at life from a higher perspective. I was once of that House." Tolstoy mused.

Lily? Aurelius wondered…then again his childish belief that Lily was destinied for Ravenclaw or Slytherin had bee cut short. Wait hadn't Viktor bore an Eagle on his chest during the Tournament?

"House Hiisi is the Elk and speaks of pride, beauty, ageless wisdom, stamina, strength and nobility. The young man who escourted you Branislav Krum is of that House."

Oddly enough that seemed to suit James…perhaps, he was well suited to his patronus.

"House Hogni is represented by the Lynx. They are revered as the Seer of the unseen, a. Master of invisibility. They hold knowledge above superstition. They are known for their perception and protection on all levels. They are sometimes known for their abilities at seduction through eye contact. They are manipulators of time, person, events space as well as s knower of secrets."

If it weren't for the 'seer of the unseen' or the Seduction bit, it sounded a lot like himself…

"You can find out more in Essays on Wizarding Education in Europe if you like." Tolstoy shrugged.

"An odd question but what would be needed to revive the Triwizard Tournament in your opinion? I do hold an seat in the Wizengamot and in the Hogwarts Board of Governors."

"Assurance of the safety of the School heads. I would highly prefer it if my students were relatively safe. When it occurred regularly there was communication and respect between the schools. Now mostly all there is is silence. The only interaction now beyond the occasional transfer is something like when famed duellist Filius Flitwick taught dueling at Beauxbatons for a few years. A former schoolmate of mine, Josephus Vulpus was once Headmaster of Hogwarts for eight yearsaround the turn of the century and another former Durmstrang student Eoessa Sakndenberg held that office from 1476-1498." Tolstoy shrugged.

Aurelius was surprised; he had no recollection of Filius mentioning such a thing even when he was the professor in charge of the duelling club. Filius was an accomplished duellist and one of the foremost experts on Charms in the world but he was once a professor at Beauxbatons?

"Do you remember the last time Durmstrang hosted?"

"I believe that Beauxbatons hosted last. A pity for I believe that the French and Basque ministries were blamed for the 1792 disaster that ended up with all three heads injured. Cockatrices are notoriously unpredictable so they should have been more careful or choose something less dangerous. I believe before that was Hogwarts. It would be technically Durmstrang's turn but I believe that Beauxbatons would enjoy the chance to redeem themselves."

"What is your field of expertise Highmaster?" Aurelius asked polite but curious.

"Sociology of magical societies. I wrote the textbook which is probably why I was invited to serve as Highmaster here."

Aurelius was surprised, "Interesting, I shall have to recommend such a class to my niece. I am sure she would be quite interested in the subject."

"The children will start when?" Tolstoy asked.

"I shall be removing them from Hogwarts this evening." Aurelius replied. "They will arrive Monday morning. Unless you feel arriving on Sunday would be preferable."

Abraxas had made sure that there was Wizengamot Meeting today so immediately following this he would be retrieving Severus and Lily.

"Sunday. It will give them a bit more time to acclimate and they won't chance being late. I would arrive for dinner, that way they can be housed

"What is the process you use to sort your students?"

"You'll see. We don't use a mangy hat." Tolstoy smirked, "You can't expect me to give up all my secrets."

"Is that an invitation to join your school for dinner?"

"You would be coming out all this way might as well throw in dinner."

"I'll be pleased to join you. I better head back."

The two men shook hands.

"It's been a pleasure Highmaster."

"Likewise Governor. I would be interested in hearing more about the Triwizard Tournament. I think it was a wonder way to encourage exposure to other cultures and friendly competition. I think our ancestors were overly harsh on Beauxbatons. They deserve a second chance."

"I will talk to my fellow Governors if we can acquire enough support perhaps we can come to an agreement. Which Ministries would be involved?"

"Technically we are not subject to any one ministry. Our board of governors are appointed by each Ministry's version of the Wizengamot's educational committee that sends students here so most of the northern European Ministries. Beauxbatons is under a council that is similarly comprised of the French, Basque, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. The Swiss go to either, the French speakers to Beauxbatons and the German to us."

"I see. Well thank you for the interesting conversation. I shall be sure to join you and your school for Dinner Sunday. I've met a few former students but they told tales that didn't live up to the reality." Aurelius said politely.

Highmaster Tolstoy was kind enough to see him to the edge of the Durmstrang's property and waved him in his way. Flooing from London IFC usually required a timed floo but to London IFC was easy.

So he flooed back to London IFC and then flooed immediately to Hogsmeade.

He took a slow ambling stroll to Hogwarts and made his way to Minerva's office. Her schedule was always the same so he knew that she had an open period about now.

He knocked on the door.

"Enter."

Aurelius let himself in.

Minerva frowned, "You look like the sire of a former school mate of mine. You look like a Prince."

Aurelius smirked, "I am his younger brother Aurelius. I am here about two of his grandchildren. I had a magical accident that threw me forward in time. My youngest niece is dead and their mother is living in seclusion but has granted me custody. Their treatment here is not what I would wish and I am removing them from Hogwarts and sending them elsewhere. I have the papers from Gringotts, the Ministry and the Board of Governors granting me their agreement to my claim."

"Who are your niece and nephew? How have they been mistreated? I know nothing of this."

"My niece had an iffy relationship with a close relation and bore two children of that union. She bonded to a Muggle so the children were born under a legal contract. However since she weren't truly given the name Evans I find it quite interesting that you never signed her letter."

Minerva blinked, "I sign every letter."

Aurelius shook his head, "You did not. Hers bears the Headmaster's signature. Ask her to come and show it to you. Her brother is Severus Snape and I am here for him as well. Their blood adoption will be reverse since it is the legal adoption that matters, once the adoption is reverse they will be purebloods once more. They are a mixture of their mother and her husband. Lily had her eyes and his hair while Severus is the opposite. As you can see green eyes of this shade are rather dominant and clearly a Prince trait. Severus has Prince hair naturally when he isn't wearing the glamour he is."

"Glamour?"

"It's more of an uglifying spell that a glamour. Silly boy. We'll be having a chat this weekend. I told him to remove it."

"I'll fetch them and Severus' records his marks should be with his Head of House it is a bit early in the term but he has a few assignments already marked mostly from myself of course. Some of the other professors are a bit lax."

"I had Dumbledore and he was strict. I can only imagine what you might be like."

Oh he knew quite well having been her student…

Minerva slipped out to fetch Horace, Severus and lily she must be quite disturbed to not send house elves.

Aurelius wasn't a former Headmaster or Head of Slytherin for nothing. It didn't take long for him to retrieve Remus' records without setting off her wards and copy them. Once he had Remus all would be set.

Once Remus and Fenrir came to an understanding he was sure that Remus would agree that getting away from his parents and Dumbledore was for the best.

He could spend moons with his sire and the pack. They could help him adjust to his wolf…

His musing was interrupted by the arrival of his former teachers, his best friend/his sister and his younger self.

"You're…" Horace frowned, "Oh it's you."

Aurelius nodded, "Yes I've come to take these two out of your hands. They will be transferring. Given the realities of their blood status and the treatment they have sustained I do not enjoy this knowledge. With their consent the arrangements have already been made. I will be delivering them to their new school this weekend and they will have a fresh start."

"You actually asked them?" Minerva frowned.

"Yes I gave them the choice. They informed me of it and they are to begin there with clean slates. While not adults they have already made decisions that changed their life, Lily took a chance and came here. Severus choose the house that suited him best despite the fact that he would he shunned and bullied." Aurelius shrugged.

"Really? This is the first I've heard of this..." Slughorn sniffed.

"The first Saturday of term Lucius Malfoy stumbled upon James Potter and Sirius Black tormenting Severus. He managed to stop them before damage was done but Potter, Black and Pettigrew escaped."

"He did take points didn't he?" Minerva frowned.

Severus spoke up. "Yes. Twenty for Black and Potter each plus five for each of those who didn't try to stop him."

"Well there is that small comfort."

Aurelius stared at her, was she insane?

"Well Horace why don't you hand over Snape's file." Minerva turned to summon Lily's file and copied it. "Since everything is in order it would be perfectly alright to have them pack their things."

Aurelius rose snapping his fingers and summoning a Prince elf.

"Yes Master Aurelius?" Lolly asked.

Aurelius pointed at Lily, "This is Lady Lillian, Lady Eileen's daughter. I want you to assist her in packing. When she is finished she may say goodbye. We shall meet her at Gryffindor Tower."

Lolly bowed, "Lolly happy to Missy Lena's little girl. Lolly take good care of Missy Lily."

Aurelius turned to Severus, "Let's go see that your things are packed. The sooner we go the sooner you can put all of this behind you."

Severus rose silently, his bearing surprisingly proud.

Together they walked towards the Slytherin common room and Aurelius cast privacy bubble that moved with them.

"Has anything interesting happened?"

Severus blinked, "Yes…the Prewetts and Weasleys were removed from school yesterday. The Weasleys looked a bit confused, Miss Prewett looked embarrassed by the Prewett twins were livid."

"Well I see that they took quick action perhaps, that disaster has been averted. Have the Gryffindors Black and Potter laid off yet?"

"Black's a bit miffed he's in trouble with his mother. Potter's taken to moping since we're going away. Why?"

"Merely curious." Aurelius shrugged.

They entered the common room using the first password he remembered: Toujours Pur.

Severus seemed nervous as they made their way to the stairs of the boys dormitory..

Lucius bowed slightly.

The first year boys' dormitory was empty.

A few well-honed spells and all of Severus' belongings were put away in his Hogwarts trunk.

Aurelius shrunk it and held it out, "It ought to fit in a pocket now."

They retraced almost familiar steps to Gryffindor Tower.

James Potter was glaring at him, "Do you have to take Lily away?

"She is mistreated here and will continue to be if she remains. I refuse to allow that. What would you have me do Potter? Obliviate the entire school and the Headmaster so that they are treated properly? No, I think not. I haven't the patience and an act of that sort gets one sent to Azkaban for a nice long stay. Rather avoid that fate wouldn't you? They are transferring. Perhaps, you should focus on your studies and becoming the kind of person I wouldn't be ashamed to alone her to bond to. That is your intention is it not?

The Potter boy's face turned red.

"Now if you wish to start a good impression go fetch Remus for me I would like a word."

James was even more depressed looking then ever.

Remus came out, "What are you doing so early?"

"I came to fetch you. go pack your things I have your records as well as Lily and Severus. You're to transfer as well. Hurry up. You don't want to miss lunch do you? I asked the house elves to be sure to make a chocolate raspberry cake for tea."

Remus always had a weakness for chocolate. The boy was gone in a flash.

It was another few minutes before the two soon to be former Gryffindors were followed by some of their year mates.

They weren't close to their Housemates quite yet and probably wouldn't be.

Lily patted James shoulder, "Why don't you write me? Surely your owl Cadmus can find Durmstrang."

A few of the older Gryffindors made comments about going to Durmstrang made you Dark.

"How simplistic a notion. I didn't know a school that that classes such as the Sociology of Magical Societies, Introductory Healing, Wandlore and Craft, Tree healing and Anthropology of Ancient Magickal Civilization. It seems you even use many of the same books. Unless your own textbooks are now Dark since they are used by places like Durmstrang." Aurellius squinted at the older boy, "You're a Brown aren't you?"

The boy sniffed, "So what if I am?"

"Just checking. Come along you three."

Remus, Severus and Lily followed him.

Aurelius paid four sickles to use Madam Rosmerta's floo and they flooed back to Merrivale.

Since they were with him and he'd already cued their magical signatures to the wards the floo admitted them at once.

XoooooX

Fenrir joined them for dinner.

Alaric cast shields around Remus to trap his magic.

Which had Fenrir baring his teeth and Aurelius irritated.

"What are you thinking?" Aurelius hissed.

"The boy bears a curse that activated when Fenrir entered the room. I managed to restrain it. It will bear some study but I think I can break it after Hogwarts I made extensive study of Dark Magic including curses. I did work for a few years at Borgin and Burkes, I was quite the regular visitor to their neighbouring shop Alexandria's Inferno. Why I never could afford their prices since my years in Slytherin overlapped with Malcolm's he let me read. He has the books warded even thinking about taking one gets you tossed out of his reading room. Renard introduced me."

"Isn't that Rodolphus and Rabastan's father?"

"Yes, the Lestranges own the land that Knockturn Alley was built on. The Burkes and the Bulstrodes leased then Area 13 and built a building with Borgin. They each have claim to half the building eventually made enough to purchase it. They are one of the few who own the building that houses their shop. While there are a few other shops Alexandria's Inferno is the best and the best known. If you are looking for a Grimoire then they are the place." .Alaric frowned casting magic at the boy, "I know this signature…"

Aurelius scanned it, "You ought to. This is the man that cursed you."

Alaric's face twisted into a grimace. "I will have his head."

"And I will help. Right now why don't we leave Severus and Lily to their lunch and we'll see about setting Remus to rights. If he reacted like this to Fenrir imagine what might happen with other persons under their curse."

"Lycanthropy is a disease!" Lily frowned.

"It is a curse that mimics a disease and is spread through intent via claws or teeth. A Dark witch who hoped to raise a legion of slaves in an army created it. While the curse was altered it still spreads that way but one has control over whom it spreads to. I bit Remus because he was dying. It wasn't a perfect solution but it saved his life, he would have been dead inside a month. He was powerful and it would have been a waste." Fenrir corrected. "Might I come along? The curse might go dormant if I am not in the same room with him."

Aurelius frowned, "The only room we might use is the lab we set up together. However I am not sure that having him around those artefacts is wise."

"Would it be safer to have him in you potions lab?" Alaric retorted.

"No."

"I think a lab ward for the examination and destruction of Dark Artefacts shall do nicely. Also having Fenrir might be helpful after all he knows more about his kinds then we do. While we can deal with the Dark Magic he can possibly identify where his magical core differs from his kind."

"I don't think he would enjoy being discussed like this." Lily frowned.

"He's under a curse that must be removed. He can yell at us later for our word choice if he likes. However since he is going to attend Durmstrang it is imperative that we remove the curse before he attends. This will be quite annoying. I was hoping to take you three shopping tomorrow. It will take some time to learn the curse and to remove it. Alaric if you would escort Fenrir to the lab and bring Remus with you I shall call Abraxus and ask him if he would take the children to get their school things tomorrow. I know his Russian is superior to my own. If you return with a second set of Durmstrang robes with resizing charms I believe that will suit."

"Abraxus?" Severus asked.

"Lucius' father. He's become quite the friend. He's a very accomplished Potions Master. He oversees the exams. Perhaps, we might have a chat the three of us. I remember Lily was quite the accomplished brewer herself. If you bring up brewing you may have a favourable time shopping." Aurelius offered before turning to find the nearest floo.

"What about your lunch?"

"We'll have something set down. Your friend is in desperate need of attention. A very good thing we were around when he met his first werewolf." Alaric added before levitating Remus and leading Fenrir off.

Leaving two very confused and slightly worried twins who had yet to resemble one another.

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?

unneeded- Yeas there are a lot of changes. All for the better. Yes a Match between Lily and James is sought. Aurelius/Sev does not wish to prevent Harry's birth. There will be a sid-fic debuting soon focusing on jus the kids but mostly on Sev, Remy and Lily. The alternative paths are just going to get more interesting I'm sure. I will be debuting a Remy, Sev, Lily-centric fic that traces their Durmstrang years at least. With some appearances by Sirius and James- have to keel the Lily/James if you want a Harry.

ChaosLady - Thanks!

bianca - Thank you. I got this Idea from a Harry time travel story but I send Sev farther back i time and he's rewriting the future as much as the bast.

A/N: please check out my collaboration fic Chosen Darkness with my friend donnethan valantyne 9

It features an independent future Dark Harry Lord of the Snakes lol.
