Author's note: I have no clue where this came from. When it describes Lily as scary, it means when she's mad.
Chapter 1: Hogwarts, Here We Come
Harry Potter was having a great time at his house, mansion actually. He had a weird, but funny father, a strict and somewhat scary mother, and an awesome twin sister. His fraternal twin sister, Haley, was born after him and the two have always gotten along.
"Come on Dudders! You need to go faster if you want to catch me" Haley yelled to her cousin. Dudley Dursley grinned and ran faster. Dudley was their mother's sister's son. Lily and Petunia got along good, except for occasional fights over something stupid.
"Be careful you three! Don't be too…….." Lily began "Rough". Harry tackled Haley full force to the ground. Dudley followed suit. Lily and Petunia winced.
"Too late sis" Petunia said simply.
"Unfortunately, I always am" Lily sighed. Vernon muttered something under his breath and Petunia nudged him in the ribs.
"Vernon! Stop it! It's my little sister and I won't have anyone wishing bad luck on her" she told him. She turned back to her sister.
"Anyway, Harry and Haley just got their letter from Hogwarts yesterday" Lily continued. Petunia had been jealous about her sister being a witch, but eventually got over it and helped Lily out.
"Really? I wish Dudders could go, but he can't. Oh well" Petunia sighed back. They watched as Haley gave her brother and older cousin a big hug.
"Harry! Dudders" she yelled pulling them back onto her. They both fell to the ground laughing and hugged her back. The three of them had always been best friends.
"You know, I'm going to miss you two when you're at that magical school" Dudley told his cousins. Harry put an arm on his shoulder.
"We are too Dudley, we are too" he told him. Haley nodded in agreement. She got up and ran to one of the three swings her father built for them. Harry and Dudley followed her. The next day, Harry and Haley went to Diagon Alley to get their supplies for school.
"Look, it's a Nimbus 2000! It's a state of the art broom" a kid exclaimed. Harry, Haley, and James gazed longingly into the shop. Lily laughed and rolled her eyes.
"It sure would be cool to get one" Haley commented.
"Yeah" Harry agreed. Lily decided to let the three roam in the shop while she got Harry and Haley another birthday present. Lily loved spoiling her kids, but not too much.
"Hey dad, how come you didn't teach us to fly like you said you would" Haley asked James. James sighed.
"Your mother wouldn't have it. She told me to wait until you were older, then she just said no. I would've taught you how to fly, but you just don't argue with your mother" he explained. They just shrugged it off. Then, they went outside and found Lily coming up the street with two cages.
"Need any……….wow" Haley exclaimed looking at the animals in the cages. Harry was right behind her and gawked at the snow white owl. Haley was looking at the brownish-gold owl.
"Okay you two, you guys need to pick which one you want" Lily laughed. The two grabbed the owl they wanted. Haley took the brownish-gold one and Harry took the snowy white.
"Hm……….I think I'll name mine Erin" Haley announced.
"I'll name mine Hedwig" Harry said. They then went to Olivanders and then to get their books. Soon, they were all ready.
"Hogwarts! Here we come" Haley yelled out happily.
