Remembrance

. "

Everyone could see that the magic power on him was growing wildly, and even formed a small vortex around him, and the surrounding magic power was about to become materialized, but the person in the center of the vortex looked very bad.

"Severus, when did you find out?" He asked with a smile, "I have always believed in the tacit understanding between us." Even before he died, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year and had a quarrel the last time they met. However, he always believed that if anyone could know the information he left behind, then besides Hermione, it should be only Severus.

Severus held him in his arms, his eyes fixed on Edward's.

"Edward's eyes would occasionally turn green after he was one year old, and it only changed for a few minutes. At first, I didn't notice that there was anything wrong with it. After all, there are no children in the wizarding world who inherit the eye color of their parents and change it at will. I thought Edward would be A natural Animagus," he said slowly, "the potions you asked Weasley to find for me, in addition to the ones listed by the medical wing that I need to use, there are also some that I can't use , but that guy Weasley has never been a single-minded guy, he will only find potion ingredients according to your instructions, so the extra ones will not be randomly searched by him, but only what you think I need to use. "

"Later I found out that Edward's situation was not as simple as I imagined. If it was just a change in appearance, it would be reasonable, but sometimes not only his eyes or appearance would change slightly, but his personality would also have some changes. Those changes are not Affected by external forces, I later realized that he still inherited your character. Potter's inheritance is so strong, how can it be broken at will, but if it is inherited from your character and appearance, it is impossible to appear occasionally like him Occasionally disappear," Snape sneered, and patted Harry's mischievous hand on his face, "When Weasley gave me the potion again the next year, I knew that you deliberately put the magic on Edward Curse, those extra potion materials are also strengthening the magic power dissipated by your death, Potter, you used half of your body's magic power to press Edward, right!"

"I can't let the half of Edward's body inherit my magic power cycle. The soul piece has stayed on my forehead for too long, and I am too familiar with my magic power cycle. Edward can't show any resemblance to me, otherwise it will only speed up the soul piece. It will be easier to take Edward's body in the future." The "weaknesses" that Edward showed from time to time were just his special tricks to attract Snape's attention.

"So Edward, did you hear that?" Snape asked, "Papa loves you more than anyone else in the world."

He is the one who loves you the most, but the situation at that time was too sudden, he could only arrange everything hastily, but later on, he became the one who dared not appear in front of you the most.

Soul Piece clearly felt the sadness welling up deep in his heart. This feeling was not his, but the little ghost who had been suppressed by him all the time. Along with that sadness came a strong desire to pull him into the darkness The willpower of the abyss, he was seriously injured and couldn't resist such a force at all, it almost made him pass out when his eyes were dark.

Harry turned his head, put his forehead against Snape's, and said with a smile, "Honey, tell me what else you found."

"When I first saw you, I thought you changed your appearance because of our previous quarrel," Snape stroked his pupils with his hand, those eyes were as bright as ever, full of his reflection , From a long time ago, these eyes were only filled with him, "I found out later that it was wrong. You were actually afraid to look at Edward and remember everything. Once your memory recovered, you put it on Edward. The magic will come back to you, and once your memory is restored, our borrowed time will begin to spin."

But some things must be resolved, and some promises must be kept. He must unplug the hidden dangers of Edward's body.

"I left Edward's body at Weasley's side. Once he dies here, his soul will go back, but you," Snape said with a sneer, "Voldemort's body is gone, once you die Now, you should follow your main soul to see Merlin."

"You planned it from the beginning, you..."

Harry left Snape's arms and came to Edward panting heavily. The child could no longer move. Harry held him tightly in his arms and said softly, "This time it's really a farewell Tom." He rested his forehead on Edward's forehead, and saw that the scar that only left traces suddenly split open, and a faint blood flowed from it, and Harry held the hand of the Elder Wand against Edward's temple Go up, lightly chant some mantra.

Edward slowly closed his eyes, but the sharp scream mixed with panic did not disappear.

The place where Harry and Edward's foreheads met gave off a dazzling white light, and the light was connected to the top of the wand, instantly enveloping the entire surroundings.

Tom and the others felt as if they had stepped into the Pensieve, revisiting a long memory in a flash.

An 11-year-old boy, from the beginning of entering the wizarding world to the outbreak of the wizarding world war, they watched the boy make friends on the train, and met his deadly enemy after entering Hogwarts. Growing up continuously, gaining something and losing something, when the elders around him who could protect him were all asleep, he finally straightened his back and held the wand, standing in front of many wizards, what his relatives failed to accomplish , without a word he did it for them.

He once lost his self-confidence, and once reached the point of collapse. People around him kept dying, and people kept leaving and defecting.

However, there are also people who always stand by his side. The person who had the worst relationship with him in his student days became the person who stood by his side the most firmly. The friend who accompanied him for six years and gave up school for him always held his hand tightly. In the darkest period, he gained love, did not lose friendship, and finally won the war.

But life is not a fairy tale. After the war, there are more things waiting for them. They kept busy until one day, the man got his partner's medical examination report from the medical wing.

Long-term use of black magic to make potions, exposure to too many harmful herbs makes the partner's body full of toxins, if he can't find precious herbs to make antidotes, then he has less than five years, and at the same time his own inspection report Almost came out, although he was a wizard, but a new life was already conceived in his body.

"Severus's mind is too sensitive, he will definitely find a way to break up with me, come back to me after he is cured, or find a place to die alone," the man said to his friend, "Don't laugh Ron, this old bat is just awkward, he will really do this kind of thing."

"What are you going to do, Harry?" his friend asked him.

"What else can I do, as he wishes, that guy will definitely not let me accompany him, then you can just make up your mind and don't really get angry, I have greeted you before." He concealed about her own pregnancy.

It's just that when his partner confessed that he once liked his mother, Harry still reacted a little more.

Later they "broke up", but they didn't get divorced. Yes, their wedding was just friends, and no one else knew that they were married. Although they were furious, they still left room for each other.

After a few days, Harry calmed down and realized that something was wrong. He had known about it for a long time, and he had already guessed that a man would use all kinds of reasons to let himself leave his side temporarily. It is reasonable for his partner to say those hurtful words He shouldn't have reacted so much when it happened.

The next day, he summoned a Patronus in the Ministry of Magic. The Patronus changed from a bat to a snake. The keen witch noticed something was wrong. After careful inspection, he found that the piece of soul that should have died in the war was not dead. , and also because the death of the main soul was slowly recovering, Harry remembered that his emotions were not right these few days.

"Give the potion to Severus to make. I'll get it once a week. None of you can help me this time. I have to help myself." The level of medical treatment is different. The partner only needs a spell to know that he is pregnant. It is very harmful to the body and the soul to peel off the awakened soul. If you do this, the child will definitely not survive. As far as his partner is concerned, he will definitely let himself abandon the child - they are too important to each other, even if the child is the continuation of life, it is not enough for Severus to use his life to joke.

So he hid himself—not really hiding, but no one would have guessed that he would choose to return to live in Spider’s End—and he discarded the potions brought back by the owl, and at the same time He placed it next to the bed as a treasure, and even put the wand in a box engraved with ancient magweave.

He knows all the news about his partner, and he knows that he has traveled all over Europe for his body in search of the freshest potion. Even though his body has already crossed, he endured the pain of the poison corroding his body and insisted on brewing the potion for him. Taking the medicine, he watched the man lose weight rapidly, and in the end he simply stopped opening the letters sent by his friends.

He rummaged through all the books in Spider's End Alley. By the time he finished reading the last book, the child was about to be born. At that time, he had already noticed something was wrong. Leigh's body stayed there for too long, and he would already quietly absorb Harry's magic power, even a little bit, was enough for him to have the power to transfer, and he hid on the fetus, although Harry found out at the moment of transfer, but But it was too late to stop.

He seemed certain that Harry would not lay hands on his own child.

The day before the child was born, he wrote letters to his friends, but did not leave a single word to his partner.

He was afraid that after Snape got the news, he would hand over the child to his friends, and then die by his side the next moment.

Draco was the first to come to Edward when he was born, and he gasped as he watched the baby's eyes open at birth.

"Red..." he told Harry.

"Give me the wand in the box, Ron," said Harry softly.

Ron turned his head and said nothing, but Draco handed him his wand.

"Hermione, it's time for you to find him." Harry said with a smile to his friend, "Thank you for being with me, I will be self-willed for the last time, really."

Hermione walked away with red eyes, and Harry aimed his wand at the newborn baby.

A burst of white light flashed, and the screen stayed in white.

There is nothing here, just two people standing face to face.

"Aren't you going on, Harry?"

Harry smiled: "I'll wait for him here, Headmaster Dumbledore, I'll wait until he comes to me."

"Severus is a very trustworthy person. Since he promised you, he will do it." Dumbledore chuckled. "Then it's time for us to separate for a while," he said, "I'll wait for you to catch up."

Then he left, and Harry stayed where he was and waited.

There is no time passing here, and Harry doesn't know how long he has been waiting here. When the memory is played back, it is actually just a moment, and a skeleton with a hood appears in front of him: "His partner hopes you can see child."

With the help of the skeleton, he saw the recent situation of the living people.

The child looked to be four or five years old, just as he had thought at the beginning, he didn't look like himself in any way, the man was still so thin, his face was still expressionless, and he seemed to never have any emotional fluctuations for anything , he did not use the potion that Ron found, but tried his best to find the death artifact, and invited the god of death.

However, there is no such thing as resurrection in the world. If he is only seriously ill, he probably still has the hope of extending his life. However, he has been dead for many years. If he hadn't been waiting here for many years, and he didn't go on and look back, Perhaps not even Death could find him.

"I will send their souls to another dimension. Your time will be temporarily stagnant. Once your time starts to turn, it's time for you to say goodbye to the world of the living." In the end, Harry was greatly affected by the space. When he appeared in this world, he had completely changed his appearance.

That's all Harry remembers, and it's all gone after that.

The remnant soul in Edward's body was finally pulled out by Harry and put back on his body. This piece of soul has no function. Although it is conscious, it can no longer do anything. When Harry's time comes to an end, it will be When he died completely.

Edward's consciousness finally took control of his body again.

He moved to Harry's side, weeping.

"I'm sorry Edward." Harry rubbed his head, "Don't blame your father for ignoring you, he just wanted to force out that piece of soul, which made you sad, and we're sorry dear."

If it wasn't for Edward's extreme sadness, he wouldn't let the soul piece take advantage of it. Snape clearly knew this, but he still ruthlessly ignored Edward's recent ailments.

"Daddy..." Edward leaned into Harry's arms, feeling the care of another father for the first time since he was born.

"Go back, Edward." Snape came over, reached out and gently stroked the messy hair, when Harry's spell on Edward disappeared, and when the blood in Edward's body began to complete, Harry's blood in him That side began to appear in front of everyone, "You should go."

"Uncle." Harry finally woke up from the shock, he asked hesitantly, "What's wrong with Edward?"

"Edward's body is in another world, and his soul has been with Voldemort's soul piece for too long, and I have hurt Edward by forcefully pulling out the soul piece," Harry sighed, "He can't stay in this world any longer , he has to go back."

Harry bit his lower lip, then walked to Edward's side: "Edward, will you remember us?"

Edward hugged Harry gently: "I'm sorry, I actually like you very much." It's just that because of his own problems before, he ended up causing a lot of trouble to those around him, "Tom, I'm sorry, and Draco, I will remember you, my friends, really."

Draco came over and hugged Edward. He was probably the only friend Edward had after coming here for so long. Although he was reluctant to part with Edward, he also knew that Edward had to go: "I will remember you, Edward."

Tom didn't say anything, but just put his hand on top of Edward's head like a brother, with a somewhat intimate gesture, which seemed to put aside the previous misunderstanding.

"When you see Ron and Hermione, remember to say hello to me, Draco might blame me, and then you have to say something nice to Dad." Harry said mischievously, and Draco beside him blinked for no reason, "Baby, I still have a lot of things I want to say to you," he said regretfully, "I once expected to watch you grow up, maybe you will turn Hogwarts upside down like me, maybe you will Like your father, he has been excellent in studies since he was a child, but I'm sorry, I can't participate in these."

He had once hoped that his magic power would be strong enough. As long as Edward was born safely, he could use the most extreme method to kill Soul Pieces. Although it would damage his body, he should be able to spend some time with Edward and Severus. It's a pity Later, when the soul piece was transferred, he knew it was impossible.

"Thank God for giving me some more time, so that I can still tell you this sentence, Edward, Dad loves you." He said devoutly to his children, "It's a pity that I can't watch you grow up, but I believe you Will become an even better wizard than me, we are waiting for you on another journey."

"I love you too, Dad, Dad." Edward smiled, "See you later."

Snape smiled softly and patted Edward on the shoulder lightly.

The Deathly Hallows gathered in the house glowed brightly again, and the boy on the sofa waved his hand lightly in the white light.

That was saying goodbye.

Say goodbye to everyone and everything he encounters.

☆, the so-called calm

After Edward left, everything seemed to be calm again. The Malfoy family still stayed here, and even Dumbledore stayed here for several days. During those few days, Harry was almost chatting with Dumbledore. They chatted in the courtyard No one knows what, but when Dumbledore said goodbye to them again, when Snape asked about his plan, he smiled and said: "I want to go to the Hog's Head for a drink first, and the owner of that shop will do something for you." It's a very mellow wine, and I haven't had it for decades."

"Then I will probably go to Germany again before school starts. Although I have been there once before, I want to visit an old friend again. If possible, I will invite him to England." Dumbledore said with a nostalgic tone Said.

He really seemed to be missing the good wine he hadn't had for a long time, and he seemed to be missing a friend he hadn't contacted for a long time.

Snape nodded: "Bon voyage." This was probably one of the few blessing words he said to Dumbledore in his two lifetimes.

Dumbledore nodded and left quickly.

None of them said goodbye.

When Snape returned to the house, Harry was telling stories to the three children plus an older child. Those bedtime stories that Snape had told Edward were adapted by Harry into adventure stories that told stories about his past. Curious children listen.

Although they had seen those long memories once before when Harry was drawing the soul piece, but after all, they just watched them briefly, but the process was not clear, so the children have not done their summer homework these few days. Done, just waited for Harry to tell the story.

Sirius, the childlike "child", also joined in the fun.

Harry has returned to his previous appearance, his messy hair stubbornly showing his presence on the top of his head, his green eyes are full of smiles, the scar on his forehead originally only left a faint mark, but now he looks like The newly scabbed wounds were just as noticeable, and with a pair of glasses on, it was the adult version of Harry.

But they are different after all, Harry still has innocence and kindness in him, he has no innocence, those things were slowly worn away during the war, and precipitated into the most admirable patience, growing into someone else No wisdom.

Although they are the same people and things, they have different development experiences. For example, here, Harry and Draco have become good friends, and there is a Tom by his side. Under their influence, Hogwarts Relations between the colleges are slowly easing.

In Harry's memory, the "war" between him and Malfoy didn't ease until after the seventh grade. He started from the first grade, and every school year was unsettled.

Harry told the children about his past experiences in detail. Although the intuitive experience without the pensieve makes people see it concretely, the text description leaves a lot of room for people to play.

When Harry talked about Snape coming to find him, Draco couldn't help asking: "Then... where is my original godfather?"

Harry was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.

Snape just washed the fruit and brought it in. Hearing Draco's question, he replied, "He's gone, go do what he wants to do."

"Gone?" Draco didn't understand.

Snape put the fruit down and went to Harry's side: "I once told Voldemort a prophecy, which was the trigger for the death of Harry's parents later, 'he' did the same thing with me, but in this Space, some time before Harry disappeared, Voldemort leaned over a person to look for him, but because of his emotional instability, Voldemort wanted to kill him, just at that time I came here with the power of the Deathly Hallows, I promised him He will protect Potter, and he left with peace of mind, probably to ask his friend for forgiveness."

Tom patted Harry's back lightly, soundlessly soothing.

Harry walked in front of him and said softly: "Harry, I know this is cruel, but there are many things that you need to face." If he could, he really wanted to help these children shelter from the wind and rain, but because he had gone through , he understands many things, he can't interfere, "The last Horcrux is in the hands of Kreacher, Black's old house. When the wizarding world is in chaos, Professor Dumbledore will apply for the children of the wizarding world to be able to use magic protection outside of school. With the approval of your own special care, you will have to go the rest of the way by yourself."

Harry nodded firmly.

"Many things need to be done by you, and we are no longer suitable to help you." Harry touched the children's heads, "My responsibilities have been fulfilled, forgive me for not planning to get involved again."

In mid-August, Voldemort assigned dementors to cause a huge commotion in England. Harry accompanied the children to Diagon Alley to buy textbooks for the next semester. Lupine had returned to Hogwarts. Dumbledore hired him The professor of defense, the Malfoy family still lives with Harry.

The news of the Malfoys' disappearance gradually spread in the wizarding world, and many people predicted that they should have died.

On August 28, Voldemort personally sneaked into the Ministry of Magic to steal the prophecy ball, and was hit by wizards who returned to the Ministry of Magic to work overtime due to an emergency. After the news was published in the "Daily Prophet" the next day, the wizarding world fell into panic. On the same day, Dumbledore, who returned from Germany, applied for a temporary protection law for the little wizard in Hogwarts. After discussion, the Ministry of Magic allowed the little wizard to use magic when he was in danger.

On September [-], wizards returned to Hogwarts by train.

There were only five adults left in the house. Sirius often went out because of the Order of the Phoenix. Sometimes he would stay in Grimmauld Place and never come back. The house gradually became quiet.

Under the influence of Narcissa, Harry fell in love with afternoon tea. In fact, if he had nothing to do, he would often make a pot of black tea, make some snacks, and read a book for a day.

Snape hadn't made any more potions, they didn't need any more.

"I've lived this kind of life for a long time, and I'm gradually getting used to it." Narcissa would occasionally sigh, "Although Malfoy Manor is exquisite and gorgeous, there is something missing after all, and now it seems that it should be the lack of leisure. "Lucius is going to the Ministry of Magic, and she needs to communicate with other noble ladies. She is busy all day long, but she doesn't know what she is busy with.

"The Malfoy family has already figured it out. Every time the school starts, Draco tells me where they went during the summer vacation. I heard that many Slytherin students envy him." Harry smiled. With obvious nostalgia, "Later, he inherited the Malfoy family, and his parents often traveled abroad and ignored the affairs of the Ministry of Magic. However, we had just experienced a long war at that time, and many people actually felt tired. To ease the stress of the war, most walk around."

"We hope that Draco can become an outstanding person, but we also don't want him to lose the fun of childhood." Although the education of the Malfoy family made them lose a lot of things in childhood, they are trying to make the children happy as much as possible.

"Actually, the Malfoy family is very good. This guy didn't take much care of Edward." Harry pointed to someone sitting next to him, his eyes were full of disgust, "It's also fortunate that my son didn't grow up because of my good inheritance." crooked."

"Potter." The man raised his eyebrows, grabbed his finger and nibbled it lightly, "Don't forget that you have suppressed that part of your genetics."

Harry jumped up and poked his chest fiercely with his fingers: "That's why I say that I have strong genetics, and if I suppress it, it will affect my son. If Edward inherits your character, there will be an unflattering one." My favorite little bat."

"But he's in Slytherin, not Gryffindor."

"The Sorting Hat hasn't been washed for hundreds of years, and misjudgments are common. Wait, Edward will be surrounded by Gryffindors after he returns. The Sorting Hat will definitely sort him into Gryffindor."

"Do you want your son to be a stupid lion, Potter!"

"That's better than turning into a hissing poisonous snake. Look at how you spoiled Draco back then, and walked sideways in Slytherin. If Draco spoiled my son like that, wait for him to die I have to settle accounts with him!"

"It's as if you didn't walk sideways in Gryffindor, um, the savior Potter? The little wizard who attracts everyone's attention?"

"Oh yes, I don't know how many people want to start a family with the savior, but unfortunately he was tricked by an old bat in the end, ha, thank you Merlin Severus, all your bad luck is for this one and only time Favor!"

Obviously they are two people who love each other very much, but they quarreled endlessly. The first time I saw them arguing, everyone in the room was shocked. In the past, there is always a way to reconcile at the end of the quarrel.

It's really incredible.

Narcissa and Lucius looked at each other, smiled at each other, and left quietly.

"Well, I thank Merlin," Snape said, "thankfully I was able to find you."

The outburst of anger quickly dissipated, and Harry snorted softly, and asked Snape's lips hard.

This kiss was not enough. Most of the time, Harry liked to lean on Snape's chest and do nothing. Sometimes he would look at the flowers in the yard, and sometimes he would fall into a deep sleep.

He fell asleep for longer and longer.

At Christmas, Harry and Tom didn't come back, they went to Grimmauld Place, Draco came back to spend the holiday with his parents, and gave Harry and Snape presents from Harry and Tom.

Harry accepted with a smile.

On the day Draco returned to school, the "Daily Prophet" published a news that the Ministry of Magic had recaptured several Azkaban fugitives. They were attacked by the savior Harry Potter and his friends. It was discovered that the movement of the savior's counterattack attracted the attention of the wizards, and although the Ministry of Magic adopted special circumstances because of Albus Dumbledore's relationship, allowing underage wizards to use magic outside the school, they will still test the wizards Case.

After all, forcing underage wizards to use magic means that the young wizards are in danger, and the Ministry of Magic will consider whether to send Aurors to help them depending on the situation.

Fortunately, it was because many Aurors in the Ministry of Magic had to work overtime because of Voldemort's return during this period, so they noticed something was wrong.

"Basically, they are all his capable men." Harry, who had once fought against Voldemort, knew the current situation of Voldemort's losses as soon as he saw the list. "In such a situation, he will probably do it himself soon." He said , After thinking for a while, he said to the Malfoy couple, "Bellatrix has been sentenced to Dementor's Kiss, and many of his right-hand men have been captured. Voldemort should arrange it near Malfoy Manor." You can go home and stay for a while, and come up with an excuse to explain why you didn't come forward after Voldemort's death."

Narcissa smiled: "We still decided to live here for a while, if you don't think we are bothering you." I have to say, they liked the atmosphere here, and, "I believe you need our help in many things Isn't it?"

Harry smiled and nodded, "Thank you."

☆, the so-called end

Harry and Tom sent Harry a letter after the Christmas holidays. The letter explained in detail their plans for Christmas and the process of doing so, as well as all the things they encountered at school. Harry smiled He replied one by one, and praised them.

He doesn't like to go out anymore. Occasionally Snape will go out to buy some things, but most of the time they will stay in the house and spend a leisurely time. It seems that there is no more than ten years between them, and he still spoils him. , he is still lively, everything is the same as before.

It has been snowing for a long time this winter, and Harry occasionally runs to the yard to build a snowman when he feels like it, but the snowman he makes can actually be used to add a scene to Halloween.

After winter, Harry didn't leave the house again, he and Snape wouldn't go to the yard for afternoon tea anymore, and Narcissa would occasionally trim the flowering branches slowly with the scissors to prevent those plants from stretching around.

After January, the situation became more and more tense. Voldemort, who had lost his left arm and right arm, began to attack regardless of friend or foe. Harry and Tom were brought by Dumbledore's side, neither overprotecting nor pushing them to the front of the battlefield.

In April, the weather has turned warm, but one day Narcissa came back from picking flowers in the yard, and when she entered the door, she saw Snape muttering about someone to make people worry, and then put a warming spell on someone——at this time it was already There is no need for scarves, yet these two seem to be living in winter.

In May, Harry and Snape decided to travel.

"Maybe go abroad to see, or maybe stay in the UK." Harry said to Narcissa who was obviously worried. "There were restrictions on where to go before. Although the UK is not stable now, we still want to go out for a walk."

"We'll be back before summer break," Harry said with a smile.

Then they left.

After they left, Narcissa and Lucius still lived in this small house. After living with Harry for a long time, it seemed that a lot of impetuousness could slowly settle down.

In June, Voldemort died at the hands of the savior. No one would blame a 13-year-old child for killing an adult, because that person was a dark wizard. Naturally, no one knew that the savior was by his side, and someone was with him the whole time.

The cheers of the wizarding world continued for a month, but Hogwarts classes and exams were not postponed. In July, Hogwarts ushered in the summer vacation again.

At that time, Lucius and Narcissa had returned to Malfoy Manor, but when they greeted the children at the station, they saw Harry and Snape who hadn't appeared for a long time.

They seem to be in good spirits.

Harry hugged both children, kissing each on the forehead, before returning home with Snape.

Snape took over the luggage of the two children by himself. Although he didn't say a word, he protected the three of them from being pushed and pushed.

Harry was very excited, and he didn't stop talking about himself at the dinner table. Listening to his words, Harry shook his head with a smile. Even with all the experiences, this child is still as innocent as ever.

On July 31st, they held another birthday for little Harry. This time Dumbledore and Malfoy did not come, only Ron, Hermione, Draco and Sirius arrived. Harry received a lot during the day Wizard's gift.

At ten o'clock in the evening, except for Hermione and Sirius who stayed overnight, Draco and Ron went home.

In the early hours of the morning, just as Harry was putting his wand into the box, Sirius, Tom and Harry just pushed the door open.

"Dad?" He looked at the box in Harry's hand suspiciously, "This wand..."

"This Elder Wand was given by Professor Dumbledore. I was once held by the Elder Wand in another world.
