Crash had the radio on; he didn't know the name of the song but he was bopping his head to the beat. Who could keep up with all the new music anyway? He loved the oldies; classic rock and old school rap. The new stuff wasn't all that bad, he supposed, and Penny seemed to like it—now where did she go this time? He spun on his heel in a quick circle, scanned the room for a pitter-patter of footsteps. He dropped the dumbbell he had been lifting back into its rack in what was left of their old home office. It was going to be a nursery now. They had the crib and furniture already set up, the walls had been painted and all that was left was to move the gym equipment out; the sooner the better. Alex was due any day now. She was big and moody and was supposed to be resting, the last thing she probably needed was Penny getting tangled in her hair right about now. ”Penny?” He called tentatively into the hallway, looked left and right and tiptoed further into the house.
A time bomb was ticking over his head. He needed to find Penny, fast, and then he needed to move those weights. Alex couldn't find out he had wasted half the day away. Who knew how she might react at this stage? At least everything else had been arranged. They had a midwife that Alex was comfortable with, and the in-laws were more than willing to look after Penny when she finally went into labor. The day couldn't come any sooner.
He poked his head into Penny's room, called out for her again but couldn't seem to find the dark mess of hair and chubby cheeks that reminded him so much of her mother. (Who just might murder him tonight.) Stepping over dolls and toys, he couldn't believe they were going to be doing this all over again. Sleepless nights, late night crying and a mountain of diapers. This was a life he never even dreamed he could have. Some days, like now, it was so surreal. Like he was in the body of a different man, a different family, watching their point of view in life from behind a television screen—the closest way he had once ever had to knowing what it was like to be normal.

Penelope Barrett
Six Years Old - First Grade - Bug Collector - Halfblood
╚══════════════════════╝
Penny was going absolutely mad. Her mother was locked away in her bedroom, so the six year old didn’t see her all too often nowadays, and her father was busy putting away big heavy metal thingamabobs. All she wanted to do was play, but daddy was being boring. For a while, the brunette bopped around the room they were in – mostly dancing around to the radio that played all kinds of fun songs until she grew tired of that, too. While Crash was distracted with emptying out his stuff from the nursery, Penelope snuck out and decided she’d start a game of ‘hide and go seek’ with her pops – without letting him know. It was more fun this way. She knew he’d inevitably come looking for her at some point, but until then, she’d find the best hiding spot ever!
Penelope tiptoed into her pink bedroom, but not before stopping to stare at her parents’ bedroom door that was closed and blocking her from Alex. She sighed as she thought about her mum who was probably trying to sleep. She knew not to bother her right now, especially since she had overheard her mum and dad talking about how she wasn’t getting much sleep the last several nights. So, the girl continued her way into her bedroom and lay down on her stomach, peering under her bed. No, too obvious, she thought, pushing herself back up onto her feet. Pulling open one door to her closet, Penny slid her way inside. After making herself comfortable in the far corner on the floor, she grabbed the closet door by the bottom and pulled it shut.
Just as she had finished hiding herself away, Penelope heard Crash’s familiar voice call out her name in the hall and immediately slammed her palms up to her lips to muffle her giggles. It sure didn’t take him very long to come looking for her. As the seconds ticked, his footsteps grew louder and closer. The brunette tried to keep her giggles inside, and although she was doing a pretty good job, she decided maybe she should jump out and scare him instead. Penny quickly stood up and jumped out of the closet, yelling, “Boo!” before exploding in laughter.

If he were a six year old—Crash had to think back long and hard to those days—what would he be doing? Where would he be hiding? The pink bedroom appeared empty at first glance, a few toys were scattered on the floor but not much else. Not even a hint of a giggle.
He was about to head for the kitchen when a rustle in the closet caught his attention about a second before a tiny human burst from the closet door. Crash fell back and screamed, ”Aaaahh!” He threw up his hands in dramatic fashion as he flopped on his back. ”Oooh, I think I'm dying, ooOoOoo,” he whined like a schoolboy in a theater play. Between labored breaths, he continued on, ”If only... there was...a princess... that can save me...”
He reached out a desperate hand to Penny as a final act in his last breaths. This wasn't the first time he fallen during playtime, and it certainly wasn't going to be the last. But, usually, the hug of a certain princess would have just enough magic to bring him back to life. For now, he resorted to twitching like a fish on dry land with a tongue flopped out of his mouth. He closed his eyes, for the most part, but every so often peeked an eyelid open long enough to keep tabs on his baby girl.

Penelope playfully crashed down on her bedroom floor next to Crash, laughing all the while. The two played this game often enough, so she knew he wasn’t actually hurt – but she sure did scare him! The six year old pushed herself back up onto her feet and screamed as her father proclaimed that he was dying. No way was she going to be drying on the floor next to him! As the brunette watched him twitch and move around on the ground, she magically turned into a princess. Other than her inner transformation, nothing else changed except for her reaching out her hand and grasping the man’s hand with her fingers, ready to save his life.
“Let’s go!” she called, urging Crash to follow her as she tugged on his hand. “We gots-ta get out of here!” When her father finally stood up, Penelope let him go before turning on her heel and making a run for it into the hall and down the stairs. Upstairs wasn’t safe anymore. Lava began flowing down, and they needed to get away from it – fast! Leading the way into the living room, Penelope jumped onto a couch – and yes, she knew she wasn’t supposed to do that, but that was mummy’s rule and she wasn’t here right now. Daddy always let her jump around and even joined her sometimes.

Just as he felt the touch of tiny fingers, he sprang to his feet and said, ”I'm alive!” But not for long! Penny was tugging on his hand now, urgency stressed in her furrowed brows and lips. Their games changed so fast, he stumbled along trying to piece together what was happening next. But he knew they were running and that was a start. ”Lead the way,” he said in song. He would have kept singing but, he had no idea what they were running from or to. Still, he scrambled across the hall and down the stairs behind her.
Crash and Penny leapt onto the couch. He crouched low on his knees, somewhat of an even height with her and held a hand of his eyes like a visor and scanned the living room. ”Pssst,” he leaned over and whispered, ”What'm I lookin' at?” They could be stranded on an island in the middle of the ocean for all he knew. Or it was lava (Penny did like her lava.) Crash wasn't the most imaginative person so he usually let Penny take the reins during any games of make-believe. ”But shhh!” He stressed in a loud whisper with a finger over his lips just to stress the point. ”Don't wake up your mum,” he pointed upstairs to where Alex was (hopefully) fast asleep and completely oblivious to them monkeying on the couch.

Crash cooed and awed at the baby, making funny faces to get a laugh and smile out of Syd as he changed his diaper and switched him into fresh clothes fit for a trip to the park, including a pair of Nike shoes that matched his own. Syd was almost a year old, and despite his excellent shoe wear, he still wasn't walking. As much as Crash reminded himself it was nothing to be worried about, a part of him couldn't help it. Instead of dwelling, he looked down and cooed into the bright eyes of his baby boy. ”Maybe today'll be the day, huh? What do you think Syd? Ready to walk? No? Oh I know, I know, you just want to crawl away as soon as I put you down but you can't because we still have to find your mother, yes we do.”
Crash scooped the baby in his arms and headed into the hallway. He figured Alexandria was still busy and against his better judgment to check up on Penny, he entered the kitchen to see if there was anything else he could help Alex with. ”I've got the baby and diaper bag if you've got the drinks and snacks. Penny hasn't come down yet, has she?” He asked even though he knew full and well the answer. He still heard her drawers opening and closing while he was up in Syd's bedroom. As much as he wanted to keep a close eye on her, he had to come to terms with the fact that she would be going off to Hogwarts soon. Then he won't always be there to tie her shoes, read her books, or tuck her in at night. Who knew letting go would be so hard?

Penelope Barrett
Seven Years Old - Second Grade - Bug Collector - Halfblood
╚════════════════════════╝
Penelope was busy putting together the perfect outfit to go to the park. It was summer and she knew she’d be spending the entire day with both of her parents and brother – no grandparents today. As much as she loved her grandparents (and getting spoiled every time they had a family get together), the seven year old was pretty excited for what today had in store. Thanks to her mum, her hair was braided down her back and her ears sported silver Mickey Mouse earrings. What could look better than an all pink outfit? Penny pulled her pyjamas off and flung them on her bed before slipping into a shirt and shorts that, according to an adult, do not go together. But Penny liked them. Next, she slid a pair of shoes over top her feet and fumbled with the laces for a moment before succeeding in tying them.
Leaving her room as messy as a teenage girl would, Penelope made her way downstairs. As if her thudding wasn’t loud enough to be heard from the kitchen, the girl yelled, “I’m reeeaadyyyyy!” the entire way down. She arrived only a couple of minutes after Crash and Syd. Overreacting by pretending she was out of breath, the seven year old stopped before both parents. “How do I look?” she asked, twirling to showcase her choice of clothing.
