The Riddle of Tom\'s Family

Disclaimer: I own nothing but the Fountaine Family. God I wish I could own Severus Snape and in all the other chapters I will still own nothing. If you have seen it before or read it before, I don’t own it.


The Game goes on and then comes marriage

Anissa pulled at Albus’ arm. “Grandfather” she pleaded “Let me save him. I love him.” He nodded and stepped back. She then turned into a beautiful phoenix and climbed onto his chest and cried healing tears into his month and onto his face and head. She then resumed her human form while Ron and Hermione looked at them stunned.

While everyone looked at them stunned she laid her head on his chest and begged heaven above for him to be alright. Harry woke up with a warm heat all over his head and face and the girl he secretly loved laying across his chest crying and holding on to him for dear life. “Anissa” he said “What happened and why am I on the ground.” “You’re okay” she said as she threw her arms around him and kissed him.


Draco still watching from his broom yelled down “ You alright there Potter” “Yes” said Harry. Draco smirked “Then let’s play Potter.” Harry called his broom and mounted, before he flew off he looked at Anissa and said quietly “We will talk about us after the game, love.”

The game started again. About three minutes later Draco spotted the snitch and went after it with everything, going into a dive and caught the snitch. “And Slytherin wins the quidditch cup” was announced. Draco grabbed Amber out of the stands and did a victory lap with her. Blaise looked around for Desi, but could not find her.


Snape called him over and said “She is hurt and at the infirmary. A moment later Blaise came in through the window and dropped his broom. He spotted Madame Pomfrey leaning over his love and she looked beaten and lost and so small in the bed. He rushed to her side “Desi, Desi are you okay. What happened to you” he asked as he pulled her hand against his face.

Madame Pomfrey looked at his eyes full of unshed tears and said “Mr. Zabini, I promise you, she will be fine.” Just then Severus came through the door with Draco and Anissa. Severus watched as Anissa leaned over her cousin and became the phoenix. The phoenix climbed on Blaise’s shoulder and cried a single tear onto his chest above his heart and calmed his hate and blood lust to avenge his mate and it melted away.

The phoenix then hopped onto the bed with Desi and cried many tears for her. She healed almost immediately. The phoenix flew over to Severus and cried a tear for him too before changing back.


Blaise grabbed his Desi and held onto her for dear life. “I thought I had lost you my love” “No” she said “I will not leave you.” Severus told Blaise what had happened and Blaise wanted to go kill Crabbe, but the blood lust was gone and Severus was able to talk him out of killing Crabbe. “You need to be with her, not in Azkaban.” said Severus “Besides we have him and he won’t get away with anything.”


Gregory came in to see if Desi was okay and was greeted by Blaise who came forward and offered his hand. “Greg” he said “you saved my mate. I am in your debt, my brother.” “You are not in my debt, my brother” said Greg “You and Desi are my friends and Desi is the sister of my angel.”

Albus called the ministry to take care of Crabbe. Luckily Lucius Malfoy was sent in the place of Fudge. “What has happened?” he asked. Severus sighed heavily and said “Vincent Crabbe attacked Desiree and beat her badly.” Lucius said “Please tell me I am not here to arrest Blaise for killing the worthless shit!” “No” said Severus “You are here to arrest the worthless shit. Desiree is fine. It appears one of the Gryffindor Fountaines is an animagus and can turn into a phoenix.” “Really, did you ask about the others?”

Severus walked over to the fireplace and called Sara and when she came through he asked. “Yes” she said “most all of us are. Of course we are registered in America, so I doubt anyone would have looked it up.” Severus said “We know Anissa’s form, will you tell the rest, starting with yours” “Well” she said “I am a snake, a cottonmouth, very poisonous and Lucius , Amberlyn is a Norwegian Ridgeback; Desiree is a cougar; Devon is a falcon, and Candy is a unicorn; Jasmine is a tiger; Melanie is a Persian cat; Amy is a dove; Derrick is an owl; Eric is a Pegasus; Eolynn is a little black dog; Melody is an arctic wolf and the last is Ariel who is an alligator, very dangerous. Would you like to see mine?” “Yes” he said as he watched her change.

She raised her head and opened her mouth showing a snowy white mouth with very sharp fangs. Then she surprised them both by turning into a cute little squirrel before changing back to herself. She said “I am the only one to have two forms. Both are useful.”


Severus was proud, but asked “How much more will I find out about you and your family?” She smiled at him and said “Love, you have our lifetime to know me.” Lucius took a pensive of the attack from Desiree and Gregory and the medical file from Pomfrey and had Crabbe taken to Azkaban to await trial. “If we send him home, he will be killed.” said Albus.

Lucius was at Riddle Manor before Crabbe could even be notified of his son’s crime. “My Lord” he said bowing “I have just come from Hogwarts and have news of two of your granddaughters. Vincent Crabbe beat and attempted to rape Desiree, but was stopped by Gregory Goyle when he found them. She was seriously injured, but was healed by your granddaughter Anissa, the Gryffindor who is an animagus and takes the form of a phoenix.

Unfortunately, you will also hear that Anissa also saved the life of Harry Potter today.” The dark lord became angry and decided that if he ever had to kill one of his grandchildren, Anissa would be the one. Sensing that Lucius had more concerns he asked “Is that all, Lucius?” “No, my Lord. Draco seeks to marry your granddaughter Amberlyn” “Yes” said the dark lord “Severus has informed me of the engagements. I approve of the matches.”

It was a lovely dawn and Melody was sitting down by the lake watching the giant squid as she tossed pieces of bread to it. She had been working with Remus Lupin for two weeks now and felt so drawn to him. She wanted him so badly, but he shied away from having a love life. She was reviewing the last batch of the cure and it hit her hard. She jumped up and ran to her cousin.

She found Sara and Severus in the lab. “Here is the problem” she said pointing to the research notes. “We need to add purple thistle dove leaves here and a small amount of ground dried stink weed right between those two ingredients.” Severus studied the notes and said “It just might work, I will brew the batch now.”


She ran down the hall to Remus’ room. She knocked on his door and it opened showing a tired looking Remus in a bathrobe. “Melody, what brings you here this early in the morning” he asked. “This” she said as she pressed her lips to his. He should push her away, she deserved better than an old worn out werewolf. But, she was everything he have ever wanted and he was so lonely and he needed her so much.

And for Merlin sake, he was also a hot blooded wizard. With a wizard‘s needs and wants and a beautiful witch pressed against his body. “Please don’t send me away. I know you are a werewolf two nights a month, but for the rest of the month you are Remus J. Lupin, the man I love with every fiber of my being.” “You love me?” He asked shocked.

“Yes” she said as he pulled her into a passionate kiss and then held her close to his heart. “I love you” he said. “I have since we met, but I’m afraid that one day during a full moon I would hurt you.” “That can’t happen” she said smiling “Because I am an animagus and werewolves only attack people.” “True” he said “What is your animal form.?” She smiled even bigger and said “I am a wolf, a snow white artic wolf. Very beautiful.”


He kissed her again and guided her into his bedroom. Several hours later, Sara and Severus were celebrating down in lab. They had done it, the three of them. They had cured the werewolf. Later that night Remus stood under the full moon and didn’t change. He grabbed Melody and spun her around in the moonlight. “Now, my love, I can offer you a man. A man that can provide for you and any children we have.”

Severus laughed and said “Why do you go around poor when you have your family vaults and estates?” “Because I did not deserve them before now.” said Remus. He knelt down in front of Melody and asked “Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?” She dropped to her knees and threw her arms around him and said “Yes, with all my heart.”

They were married the next night in a blood bonding ceremony under the full moon with all their friends and family. The cure was reported to the ministry and St. Mongo. Remus lay in his bed later that night holding his sleeping wife hardly believing the change his life had taken in just this past month. Now here he was with his whole life to live and his beloved Melody by his side.

Many arguments took place about the other weddings. The Malfoys wanted Draco to marry in their home, the Zabini wanted Blaise to marry in their home. Five weddings and everyone wanted a different place. Severus wanted a quiet ceremony like Remus had with Melody, but his parents wanted more. Will and Chris were at the mercy of Severus’ parents and Narcissa who had decided that as family they needed to help out since the gentlemen did not have parents to do this for them.

Finally the Windom’s came in at Sara Riddle’s request and solved it all. The weddings would be held for all five at one time at the Windom’s main manor house with a grand reception after in the ball room. Now they could argue about the rest.


Matilda pulled Amberlyn aside and said “I know you want me to go shopping with you for your wedding dress and new wardrobe, but Narcissa has never had a daughter, where as I have eight. Would you be hurt if we let her shop with you instead?” Amberlyn smiled and said “I have no problem with that. I will go ask her now.” Amberlyn hugged her mother and walked up to Draco and his mother and hugged them both.

Then she looked at Narcissa and said “My mother will be very busy with all the other weddings. I would be happy if you could help me with the shopping and my wedding robes. It would be a big help and I would like to spend time getting to know you since you will soon be my second mom.”

Narcissa looked at Amberlyn with tear filled eyes and said “I would be very happy to help you, my soon to be daughter.” Draco pulled Amberlyn into his arms and whispered “Thank you love” in her ear “You have made my mother very happy”


Then the shopping began. Severus being old fashioned asked Sara to also buy a whole new wardrobe, not that he did not like her low rise jeans. Non veela Snape are possessive enough with their wives, but Severus wanted to kill men that looked too long at his Sara and muggle clothes showed too much. The day of the weddings arrived.

The Gryffindors ladies were singing as the guest came in to the chapel. Neville’s grandmother came in and sat next to Neville. Neville was gazing at Amy so hard he did not notice his grandmother. She smiled at him, he looked so much like his father except much taller.

Neville had sprung up to 6’3”, four inches taller than his father but he had the same deep brown eyes as his father. She had never seen his eyes sparkle as much as when he looked at Amy. She knew it was her Neville’s Amy. He had written of her when he asked to remain at Hogwarts for the summer.

Gertrude Longbottom was an old pureblood matron. The Longbottoms were a proud, wealthy family in the same social class as the Malfoys. However, they did not show their wealth. Many of the slytherin girls had given Neville a second look, but she knew it was only for the money his family had.

She watched Amy sing, it seemed that the girl sang only for Neville as their eyes were locked on each other. She was happy for him, he had so little in his life that was happy. She was grateful for his friends, they made his life better and now Amy had brought a sparkle to his eyes she had never seen before and that was enough for her to want this girl in her family.

The grooms had come in and taken their place all dressed in rich marriage robes of black silk, the ladies came in wearing traditional white silk marriage robes with bare feet and unbound hair as required. All of the ladies had beautiful hair, but none as amazing as Sara, her hair came to mid thigh. Each bride and groom repeated vows, then each took a ceremonial dagger and made a cut across their palm. The men brought the palm of their wife to their mouth and kissed her cut. The wives then raised the palm of their husbands and kissed the cut. Then they pressed their palms together letting their blood mingle sealing the bond.

A huge feast was then held and then dancing. Amy and Neville were holding each other close dancing to a sweet slow song when Stephen Avery came by and cut in. He looked up at Neville and said “Longbottom, your grandmother is looking for you.” Neville said “Amy, love I will be right back.” Neville walked away to find his grandmother not really worried about Amy. He had left her in the middle of a dance floor surrounded by her family.

Severus noticed that Avery was guiding Amy out on the patio quite forcefully and he followed heading into the shadows. Amy was pissed, she pulled her arm away and hissed “How dare you! Where in your twisted little mind did you get the idea that I wanted to come out here with you?”

Avery sneered at her and hissed “But you would have come out here with Longbottom. I saw you pressed against him.” She glared and said “Yes, I would have come out here with him. I would follow him anywhere, but what business is that of your. I don’t even know your name.” He pulled her closer and said “Stephen Avery, remember it well my lady as I intend to be your husband.”

She gasped and hissed at him “I will never marry you. I am leaving. Let go of my arm.” She tried to get away, but he held her arm and said “What do you think you will marry Longbottom?” “Yes” she said “If he would have me. I am his. Now let me go” she yelled as she kicked him. “You bitch!” he cried as he drew back his hand and looked like he was going to strike her.

Severus started to move, but Neville who had heard what Amy said came forward and grabbed Avery’s arm in an iron grip and held it firm “What are you doing?” Neville said angrily “I suggest you let her go now!” Avery let Amy go. Neville was bigger and stronger than he was and not at all the weak, scared boy of his younger days. Avery had heard about Neville fighting death eaters in his fifth year. Neville pulled Amy gently behind him, but did not take his eyes off Avery.

Good boy thought Severus, don’t turn your back on an enemy. Severus felt very proud of Neville when he heard the boy, no the man Neville had become growl at Avery “She is mine, if you ever touch her again. I will kill you.”

By this time several people had noticed the disagreement and come out onto the patio. Severus spoke with Lucius and he spoke with Avery’s father and Avery Jr. was sent home. Amy leaned into Neville’s chest and was held tightly in his arms “My hero” she said “I love you.” “I love you precious” he said “Would you really want to marry me?” he asked. “Of course” she smiled and said “As you said, I am yours. I love it when you are forceful. It’s so sexy.”

He pulled her to him for the most passionate kiss he had ever given her and felt it in his bones. She was his and he would never give her up and he would kill for her, die for her. Loving her had made him a man. A strong, powerful, and forceful man. Yes, she was his. “Amy, can I ask your father for your hand?” he asked. “Yes” she said as she hugged him.

Jason Fountaine was in his element in this political circle. He grew up working power plays. Devon and Pansy had come to him, they wanted his help. Pansy was not safe at home. Her father was a cruel man. She was not needed as she had three older brothers and her father set little value to her now that the Malfoy boy was unavailable.

Jason walked up and introduced himself. “I wish to speak with you sir regarding a marriage of your daughter Pansy to my son Devon. They have been spending time together lately and he is much taken with her. Would you come into the study for us to discuss the terms.” Pansy’s father was happy, a match with the oldest grandson of the dark lord.

Pansy was nervous, her father was around. She hated her father. After her mother died, her father started beating her. Devon had found out and told her he would die before he let her be hurt again.

Joshua Fountaine was getting a headache. He had three unmarried daughters and the suitors were circling like a pack of sharks in a feeding frenzy. Avery, Nott, Flint, and several others who’s name he did not remember and that Flint boy, didn’t his parents have enough money to fix his teeth. A simple spell would have helped.

“Daddy” said Amy “Neville would like to speak with you” Joshua nodded “Sir, I would like to request your permission to marry your daughter Amy after she graduates” Joshua asked his daughter “And do you wish to marry him?” “Oh yes Daddy” she said “with all my heart” “Yes” he said to Neville as he shook his hand. Joshua laughed and said “At least you knew the name of the sister you wanted. I have had several asked for one of my daughters, but only Neville asked for one by name.”

Later that night they all returned to Hogwarts. Draco and Blaise walked into their rooms to find them larger with more storage space and their wives things had been brought in and put away. “Draco” he heard from the bathroom and walked in to find his beautiful naked wife in a scented tub. Losing his clothes he quickly joined her.

He scurried along in the dark through the halls of Hogwarts. He was angry. Severus had gotten one and Lucius’ boy and even the others who had never served his master. But master would not grant him one. She would be in Gryffindor tower, the one that looked like his beautiful Lily. She was to be his, the master had said, but she died for that brat of James Potter.

Well, he was tired of being overlooked. He wanted a pretty, pretty all to himself. Master would forgive him when he brought her before him. At last he made it to the room and resumed his human form and looked around. Oh, so pretty, he took out his wand and stunned them all except his beloved, Anissa.

Down in the kitchens all the boys, Harry, Ron, Neville, Derrick, and Eric had been caught eating by Remus, but he had only joined them. They happened to have the Marauders Map laying open and Remus looked at it for the memories it held when he saw the room with the girls had a rat in it, a rat very close to Anissa.

“Harry, the girls” he yelled pointing to the map. Harry looked at the map and what he saw made him sick. That sick bastard was after his Anissa. Remus held his wand in the air and yelled “Emergency, all come.” Albus and Severus appeared in the kitchen. They were then told about Peter Pettigrew.
