Harry looked over at Draco and groaned. Standing in front of them was the one witch that both wanted to forget existed. Neither one wanted a confrontation yet both knew that it was coming. As each grabbed their wives and pulled them closer Hermione caught a glimpse of who was heading their way.
“Well well, Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy. Who would have ever thought that you two would end up on the same side let alone friends?”
Harry looked up a cold look on his face. “Rita. How are you?”
Ali heard the name and gasped quietly. She knew from both Harry and Draco that this was one witch that they wanted to avoid. She cuddled closer hoping that the power dampening potion worked otherwise based on her feelings the baby might attack.
Draco noticed the look on his wife’s face and knew that Rita Skeeter had better be on her best behavior or his son was going to take care of the problem. Hoping that between him and Ali they could keep him calm he intertwined his fingers with Ali’s and rested their joined hands on top of Ali’s gently rounded stomach. As a silvery ice blue glow surrounded Ali and Draco’s joined hands the occupants of the table gasped and smiled.
Ali looked up at Draco with watery eyes. “He accepted you Drac.”
Draco nodded and kissed her. “I know Ali I know.”
“What was that Mr. Malfoy?” Rita asked sitting down uninvited.
Harry looked over at Ali “Ice”
“Yeah Ash?”
“She is going to want to interview us.”
“Why all four of us Ash?”
“Because of the letter I wrote.”
Ali smirked giving credit to her last name. “Then let’s tell her shall we?”
Ali answered Rita coolly “That Ms. Skeeter was my son.”
Rita looked excitedly at the four teenagers, her eyes lighting up at the thought of the exclusive interview she could get.
“Your son? I didn’t realize that you were pregnant. Who is the father may I ask?”
Draco and Ali shook their heads at the stupidity of the older witch. Harry was the one who answered.
“Ms. Skeeter did you not read the letter I sent to the Daily Prophet? Ali is my sister and Draco is her husband. Since she is married to him I would assume that Draco is the father wouldn’t you?”
Hermione and Ali giggled as Draco smirked at the incredulous look on her face.
“You’re right Mr. Potter. Please forgive me Mrs. Malfoy.”
“It’s Lord Potter-Black Ms. Skeeter and the correct way to address my sister is Lady Malfoy-VanLint.” Harry said.
Ali agreed “You are forgiven ma’am but please in the future remember that I am a Lady.”
Rita looked over at Draco and Hermione “So are you both titled then too?”
They both nodded.
“Well now that I know how to properly address you all may I ask you a few questions?”
Harry answered taking on the role of spokesperson for his family. “Yes but there may be questions that we deem to personal to answer so please respect that.”
As Rita nodded Ali waved her hand causing a bubble of magic to surround the table which then settled on all five.
“What was that Lady Malfoy-VanLint?”
“That was a spell that makes us answer honestly, sort of like Veritaserum but you can control what you answer. It also will not allow you to print lies or take anything that we say out of context. It will also not allow you to embellish anything that we say. If you cannot agree to this then this interview is over.”
Harry, Hermione, and Draco all smiled at Ali’s impressive display of magic while Rita looked shocked. “How did you cast a spell? You didn’t say anything and you have no wand out.”
Ali smiled sweetly “I don’t need one.”
“Oh.” Rita replied softly then she looked at Harry. “If I may ask how is it that no one knew that you have a sister?”
“Ali and I didn’t even know until a few months ago when I found the truth in the Potter family vault yet we had been friends for four years before that.”
“Why did you not attend Hogwarts My Lady? It is plainly obvious that you are an exceptionally powerful witch.”
Ali smiled sadly. “Up until a year ago I had only a slight power. I could see auras but that was it. It wasn’t until I met Draco that my power started to manifest itself.”
“Were you a late bloomer then?”
Harry answered “No Ali was born a witch but after her parents and mine realized that Voldemort aka Tom Riddle had targeted Ali and I, my power was blocked and Ali’s was bound.”
“So you had different parents? Then how are you brother and sister let alone twins?”
It was Hermione that answered “I’m sure Ms. Skeeter that you have heard of the prophecy concerning the heirs of Godric Gryffindor and Rowena Ravenclaw?”
Rita nodded “Yes they were elementals whose power could only be inherited by a brother and sister of great power.”
Ali continued “Godric and Rowena had a son who became the head of the Potter family. Many generations of Potters went by before the first set of twins in the family were born. Unfortunately the daughter was a squib while her brother was a very powerful wizard. The wizard went to Hogwarts where he met and eventually married the long lost heir of Salazar Slytherin. Those two powerful witch and wizard were James and Lily Potter.”
“So you really were the heir of Slytherin Lord Potter-Black?”
“Yes although I was unaware that I was actually a pure blood. My mother’s family were squibs who kept quiet to protect the fact that they were descended from Salazar Slytherin. Until I met Ali again I had always assumed that my mother was muggleborn.”
“So Lady Malfoy-VanLint who were your parents?”
“Please call me Alexis. My mother was Marion Potter, James Potter’s twin sister. Harry and I were born cousins.”
Rita looked confused “Then how did you become siblings?”
“Ali and I are the heirs yet since we were not siblings our parents were concerned that we would not receive our full powers. They contacted Dumbledore who realized that the close bond between my father and Ali’s mother enabled Ali and I to become brother and sister. A ceremony was performed which took the relationship of cousins between us and turned it into the bond of siblings. Ali and I became extremely close in the year that we had before my parents had to go into hiding. Because of that year that we had the bond between us grew to the point that we became twins ourselves.”
“I can understand how you and Lady Potter-Black became a couple but how could you allow Draco Malfoy to marry your sister? You are the head of the Potter and Black Families are you not?”
“I am and as to why I welcomed Draco into my family you need the whole story first.”
Rita leaned forward eagerly “Please tell me.”
