Chapter 1

"It's a girl!" One of the Healers said to Lily Potter (Daughter of Diana Sewlyn and Axel Rosier), who was lying on the bed.

"Can I hold her?" James Potter (Son of Dorea Black and Charlus Potter) asked and the Healer nodded and passed the baby girl to James.

"What are you going to call her?" The Healer asked.

"Emma. Emma Gianna Potter," he said before passing the girl over to Gianna Shafiq (Daughter of Ignatius Prewett and Lucretia Black). James then pointed his Wand at the Healer. "Stupify!" The Spell hit the Healer and the Healer fell unconscious.

"What are you--" The other Healer got cut off by a Stupify from Benjamin Shafiq (Son of Alicia Fawley and Roger Shafiq).

"I'll modify their memories while you two take our Daughter and keep her safe," James told Gianna and Benjamin.

"Are you sure we can't take them both?" Gianna asked.

"No. Dumbledore's fake prophecy has already been told to the main Order members," James said. "They know Lily was pregnant. We kept the fact that they're twins from the Order but there was no way to hide the pregnancy."

"You could say it was a miscarriage," Benjamin suggested.

"We can't," Lily said. "Dumbledore's Legilimency-" She cut herself off as she screamed in pain. "I hate contractions!"

"We can't keep him out forever," James said. "Tom's insured that the five of us have Horcruxes in case things go wrong. After Dumbledore told the Order of the fake prophecy, we came up with our plan for a reason. You need to keep Emma safe for us. Petunia will protect Cassiopeia when the time comes. Now go." Gianna and Benjamin apparated away with baby Emma. James quickly put up the Anti-Apparition Wards and modified the memories of the two Healers before reviving them. Luckily, no one outside of the room could hear any of what had just happened because of the Silencing Spells on the room for the birth. Cassiopeia was quickly born and those waiting outside finally came into the room. James and Lily thought about the plan they had made up seven months ago with the help of Lily's Sister, Petunia and her husband Vernon Dursley (Son of Alfred Dursley and Bonnie Smith).

"Okay, so can you go through it one more time for me?" Petunia looked fed up at James' requests to keep going through the plan but sighed and went through the plan with James, Lily, Tom, Gianna, Benjamin, Alecto, Amycus, Severus, Rodolphus, Rabastan, Lucius, Narcissa, Anathema, baby Blaise (who is almost two months), Bellatrix, Andromeda, Nymphadora, Ted, Sirius, Remus and Peter one last time.

"I had a vision with my Seer ability when I was young and convinced my parents and Lily to act like no one in our family had Magic other than Lily and did the same after going to Ted's house. Luckily, his parents went to Ilvermorny and could easily get away with pretending to be Muggles. My parents had gone to Ilvermorny anyway so there was no record of them at Hogwarts. My vision is also why I went to Ilvermorny and how I met Vernon there. My vision is also why I had Bellatrix and Rodolphus pretend to be together and Narcissa and Lucius pretend to be together and that the kid Narcissa is currently pregnant with is Lucius' kid and not Bellatrix's kid. I also had Ted and Andromeda pretend to be together and that Nymphadora is Andromeda and Ted's kid instead of Bellatrix and Andromeda's kid too."

"Don't call me Nymphadora!" The six-years-and-eight-month-old girl yelled as her hair turned pink. Petunia ignored her and carried on.

"I hadn't known why it was important at the time for all of this but it was. I then met Gianna and Benjamin there and knew I had to introduce you, Tom and Lily to them so I did that a year ago just as I had seen where we needed to be on Lily's birthday sixteen months ago and you two met Tom," Petunia said to James. "My Seer ability is now telling me that Gianna and Benjamin have to raise your eldest Daughter and me and Vernon have to raise your youngest."

"We're having girls?" Lily asked with awe in her voice.

"Yes," Petunia said with a soft smile to her Sister. "We need everyone to believe you two and Tom are dead, that your eldest is a Mudblood with Gianna and Benjamin Muggles, that Vernon and I hate our Niece and Magic and that your youngest is a Wizarding hero. So, once your eldest is born, Gianna and Benjamin will take her to the Muggle World and take up Muggle lives. However, they will raise her with knowing everything about the Wizarding World but that she has to pretend not to when around anyone that isn't family or one of your most trusted, Tom."

"Understood," Tom said. "Only those in this room will know about this plan."

"Your youngest will be raised by you two," Petunia said. "Until Halloween 1981 when Tom will 'finally find you all' and come to kill her because of Dumbledore's prophecy. Tom will then leave a cursed scar on the child's forehead and disappear with you both. Dumbledore will then bring the child to me and Vernon. Everyone will be convinced that we hated her and that Dudley hates her but we will love her. She'll play her part to Dumbledore, along with your eldest, and they'll use Occlumency to keep the truth from Dumbledore. Tom, you'll Blood Adopt the youngest when you go to visit Lily and James and Gianna and Benjamin, you'll Blood Adopt the eldest while she lives with you. Then, we'll bring the youngest to your place on Halloween before the twins and Dudley start at Hogwarts. You two can Blood Adopt the youngest then. Tom, you'll have to wait to Blood Adopt the eldest when you 'come back from the dead'."

"But won't Dumbledore know we have two children then?" Lily asked. "Our eldest will be our Heir so Dumbledore will know our youngest isn't our Heir."

"Except Heirships go by reproductive systems and not gender. Your youngest will be a girl but she will have the male reproductive system," Petunia explained. "So they are both girls but your youngest is your Heir. Dumbledore will have no reason to suspect that you have two children but you will have to insist on checking the girl's Magic for their gender as the Healers will assume your baby is a boy."

They really hoped Petunia's plan would work and they wouldn't have to wait to see their Daughters again for years for no reason.

 


 

"That was a great act, Cassie," Dudley said as he shivered a little under the blanket after the front door had shut.

"Sorry about the Snake and the water, Dudley," I said.

"Hey, Sis," Emma said to me in my head.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Mom wants to know if you could 'accidentally' run into us in Diagon on your birthday?"

"I'll ask Aunt Petunia," I told her. "Aunt Petunia?"

"Yes, dear?"

"Em wants to know if we can meet up at Diagon on my birthday?" Emma was given a fake birthday of September 19th when she went to live with our parents. She's used to that being her birthday now but she promised that we'd celebrate our real birthday together every year while celebrating her birthday at Hogwarts so we both get to celebrate together. Aunt Petunia had a look of concentration on her face before she smiled.

"Yes, we can," she said.

...

"Who are you?" I asked the massive guy who had just put the door back up after knocking it down.

"My name's Rubeus Hagrid," he said. "Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts. Of course, you'll know all about Hogwarts." Hagrid sat down on the sofa, took out a pink umbrella and used the umbrella to light the fireplace.

"Sorry, no," I said.

"No? Blimey, Cassiopeia. Didn't you ever wonder where your Mum and Dad learned it all?"

"Learned what?" I asked with fake confusion. "And, I prefer Cassie, if that's okay."

"You're a Witch, Cassie," he said and I made my eyes go wide.

"I'm a what?"

"A Witch and a thumping good one I'd wager... Once you've trained up a little."

"No, you've made a mistake. I mean..." I tried to act shocked. "I can't be a... A Witch. I'm... Just... Cassie. Just Cassie."

"Well, 'just Cassie', have you ever made anything happen? Anything you couldn't explain when you were angry or... Or scared?" I gave a fake look of understanding. "Hm... Also," he said before turning to face Dudley. "You're a Wizard." Hagrid searched his pockets and took out two letters. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon had been throwing our letters away because Aunt Petunia had a vision that told her not to let us have our letters yet and to come to this awful place. He gave me and Dudley a letter each and we read them out loud.

"They will not be going," Uncle Vernon said. "I will not pay for some crackpot, old fool to teach them Magic tricks!" Hagrid pointed his umbrella at Uncle Vernon.

"Never insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me," Hagrid said before using his umbrella to give Uncle Vernon a pig's tail. Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia freaked out while Dudley and I stared. Hagrid told me and Dudley to come with him and we nodded.

 


 

"Hermione," Mother called. "Can you come down for a minute, please?" I went downstairs and saw a Witch sitting with my parents on the sofa. This must be Professor McGonagall.

"Hi," I said.

"Hello, Miss Granger," she said. "I'm Professor McGonagall. It's nice to meet you. I'm here to take you to Diagon Alley today."

"Okay, thank you," I said. "Cassie!"

"Yes, Em?" Cassie asked.

"Professor McGonagall is here! Are you and Dudley still with Hagrid?"

"Yes. I think we're going to go to Gringotts first, Em. Do you want to meet up there? You can ask Mother and Father for some Muggle money and go to Gringotts to have it turned into Wizarding currency," Cassie suggested.

"Good idea, Cassie!"

 


 

Dudley and I finished eating the last bit of the cake Hagrid made for me as we walked down Diagon Alley and Hagrid pointed out all the different places we could get our school supplies from. I saw Emma and Professor McGonagall going into Gringotts. Dudley and I made eye contact and nodded to each other. Once we were inside, we ignored Hagrid as he spoke to a Goblin. Dudley and I walked over to 'Hermione' and she smiled at us. "Hi. I'm Hermione Granger. I'm starting Hogwarts this year. Are you Cassiopeia Potter?"

"How did you know? Oh, and I prefer Cassie," I said.

"And I'm Dudley Dursley," Dudley said. "I'm her Cousin."

"I can see your scar," 'Hermione' said.

"Oh, right," I said.

"Hello, I'm Professor McGonagall. I'll be your Transfiguration Professor at Hogwarts. I'm also the Deputy Head and I'm the Head of Gryffindor House," Professor McGonagall introduced herself.

"Hi, Professor McGonagall," Dudley and I said.

"Can we go around with Hermione so we can get to know her a bit better and, possibly, make a new friend, Professor?" I asked Professor McGonagall.

"Really?" 'Hermione' asked with her eyes lit up. "I've never had a friend before. Everyone just thinks I'm weird or a know-it-all. You really want to be my friend?"

"Yeah, of course, Hermione," I said.

"Sure, why not?" Dudley asked in a fake bored tone.

"Well, I am very busy... As long as Hagrid is okay with it," she said. She then went over to Hagrid.

"Do you think they're buying it?" Dudley quietly asked.

"Yeah, but it'll be harder with Dumbledore as we'll have to pretend we don't know Occlumency," Emma whispered and Professor McGonagall came over with Hagrid.

"Hagrid is going to take the three of you from here," Professor McGonagall said.
