Twins

**Sorry this took a while to get out, but it's out now. I fast forwarded through 7th year. There will still be flashbacks of that year, but I didn't want to go into it. When I got this idea, the bulk of things happened AFTER graduation. Finally, both Harry and Hermione's relationships are established at this point. There won't be any of the akward dating stuff. Enjoy!

Hermione and harry stepped off of the Hogwarts Express for the last time, Ron and Ginny trailing behind them. The summer before, they had discovered that they had a grandfather, their mum's dad. Lily, as it turned out, had been given up by her mother just before she'd killed herself. They had written to their granddad and had devolped a relationship with him.

During the same year, Harry and Hermione had also grown to be friends with Draco Malfoy and a few other Slytherins. Well, Harry was more than friends with Draco, but that's beside the point.

"Guys, we'll catch up with you later. We're going to Godric's Hollow first," Harry turned to Ron and Ginny.

"Okay," Ron nodded. Hermione and Harry Apperated away from platform 9 3/4 directly to the front gate of their home at Godric's Hollow.

"When's Granddad coming for us again?" Hermione asked imediately.

"A week. You know we have to keep playing the part of Dumbledore's Golden Twins until then," Harry rolled his eyes and unlocked the front door.

"My Lord, they're at home by now," Severus Snape sat across from Tom Riddle. And it was Tom who sat there, not Voldemort. After Tom found out that his wife had given up the child that he had thought had been still-born, he went insane and it turned him into Voldemort. He regained his sainity when he found his daughter only to lose it again when Pettigrew gave him back his body.

But now, he was completely sane again, thanks to his grandchildren. "I expect that they are, Severus, but that is not what I wish to speak with you about. I'm far more interested in your relationship with my granddaughter," The Snape whose eyes widened at this was not familiar to most people. He was not greasy, nor did he have a long nose and sallow skin. His nose was rather average and he was perfectly clean, with silky black hair tied back in a low ponytail. He was pale, but still healthy looking. "She told me, my friend."

"I had not realized that she meant to tell you before the summer began," Severus replied.

"I will only tell you this once. If you hurt Hermione, you'll beg for Hell," Tom's family was very important to him and always had been. Severus merely nodded that he understood. "Good. Before you leave, make sure that the elves are preparing rooms for my grandchildren," Severus bowed slightly and left the room.

"What are you thinking about?" Harry asked. It was the next day and Hermione was laying in the back yard staring up at the clouds.

"The first time I had a vision. Well, now I am. I was thinking about how we got to this point in the first place," She answered.

FLASHBACK!

Hermione set their mother's journal down on the table beside Harry. "I don't understand. If Voldemort is out grandfather, why did he kill Mum and Dad?" Harry asked.

"I don't know, Har...," Hermione went rigid in her seat and her eyes unfocused, seeing something other than her bedroom.

James didn't need to open the door to see who it was. "Lily! Lily, it's him, take Harry and run!" He shouted to his wife. James pulled out his wand and prepared to defend his family. It appeared they were wrong, he wasn't after their daughter, but their son.A tall man burst into the home. "How could you do this, Albus?"

"It's for the greater good. Stand aside, James."

"Never! You can't have my son," Two words were spoken and James Potter was dead.

Albus Dumbledore strode up the stairs to the nursery. Lily clutched the child to her. "Stand aside, silly girl."

"Never. My father will have his revenge for this," Came Lily's last words. She dropped dead in the same manner as her husband.

Dumbledore turned the wand he held onto the Potters' son. The daughter was nothing for him to worry about, but the son was too powerful.

"Lily! What did you do?!" Voldemort, looking more and more like Tom Riddle, burst into the room. Tom fired the first curse and the battle ensued.

Dumbledore fired the Killing Curse once more, this time through an opening in Tom's defenses, at Harry. The curse rebounded and struck Tom. After the ensuing explosion, Dumbledore went to find Lupin, Black, and Pettigrew. There were memories to modify.

"Oh Gods! It was Dumbledore!" Hermione shared her vision with her brother.

END FLASHBACK!

"Yeah, that was a real eye opener, wasn't it?" Harry stated. They'd discovered that the 'greater good' meant not allowing anyone who could be as powerful or more powerful than Dumbledore to live.

"It was," Hermione agreed. "Draco and the others are still coming over today, right?"

"As far as I know. He never told me any different," Harry stated.

"Good, it'll be nice to have them here," Hermione smiled.

"Have you and Granddad figured out why you can feel people's emotions and know their thoughts in your visions?"

"Not really. Some Seer's can, others can't," She shrugged.

"Well, that sucks," A voice sounded from the fence beside the house.

"Hi Pansy," The twins smiled at her.

"Draco, Blaise, and Daphne are out front," She informed them.

"Excellent," The two of them spent the rest of the day with their Slytherin friends.
