Shall I restart a story when I'm trying to bounce back after finishing a really long story before going into another really long story? Yes, Yes I shall.

REDO! I still own nothing. Hopefully this is better than it was before. I think it is.

If you want to be kept up to date with new redos on other stories or want to know more about stories I'm going to be starting soon please follow me at Facebook under SilverMidnight52!

Hazel eyes scanned the busy train station almost frantically. He had looked away for one second and she was gone. How could she be gone already? She knew better than to leave his side when they were in big crowds.

James Potter had promised his parents that he would watch over his little sister no matter what happened and what was the first thing he did when they got to the train? He lost her! Though it wasn't really all the difficult to do so. She was not a tall person.

Gritting his teeth James looked around once more letting out a breath of relief when he saw black curls bouncing. Grabbing their bags he hurried to follow the hair and saw that it was in fact his sister.

Standing in front of a ginger boy that was a few years older than James was stood Spencer. He was just glad that while she wasn't tall she was easy to pick out of a crowd when you did see her.

"Sorry about her," James smiled coming to stop in front of the pair, "Spencer, come on. We have to get on board."

"Can I sit with you, James?" came a soft, shy voice.

Looking down at the small body James saw matching hazel eyes staring up at him. With a smile he pulled her against him and brushed the hair out of her face. Okay, he was completely wrapped around her little finger.

Not that he was complaining. Spencer was the light of his world. Of his parents world as well. Truthfully, she was the light of anyone that was near her. She was one of those personalities.

"Of course," James agreed squeezing her shoulder, "I know my friends will want to meet you."

Even as he said this he knew that it wasn't exactly true. He knew he'd told his friends about his sister, but it didn't go really into details. At that moment in time there was no real reason to tell them more.

Now there was. Spencer was here and he had to protect her. And she needed to be protected. There was no doubt in James mind that his sister was going to be a Hufflepuff and that actually scared him.

She was sweet and kind. She always saw the best in people even when they were attacking her. It was almost as if she didn't quite understand that the person was trying to harm her.

He knew that wasn't true. There had been too many nights where he or his parents had to comfort her when someone had said something. That never seemed to stop her from moving on though.

That was the thing that he loved about her the most. She kept her sweetness and innocence when he thought it was impossible. That didn't mean that she stood there and took it though.

No, she, in her own little Spencer way, always ended up telling the person that they were wrong. They never thought that she was trying to be mean or anything like that. It was something to see.

Because of that James knew that his sister was going to be in Hufflepuff. Something he didn't truly like thinking about. It was going to be hard enough to protect her since they were a year apart, but add that to her being in another house?

With a shake of his head James placed a hand on his sisters back and slowly guided her to through the train and to the cart he knew his friends would be. Time for introductions and, hopefully, convince them to help protect her.

"James," Sirius greeted when the door opened, "Where have you been?"

"That was my fault," Spencer smiled shyly looking between the two boys, "I got distracted by this owl. He was beautiful."

"Yes he was," James smiled pushing her further in so he could close the door, "Spencer, these are my friends Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew. Guys, this is my little sister."

As everyone greeted each other Spencer took a seat next to Remus who moved away from her slightly. She gave a confused look but moved away slightly to give him room not wanting to make him uncomfortable.

Remus gave Spencer a simple smile at the movement. It wasn't often that people gave him enough room to feel comfortable. It was actually a good feeling knowing that she was doing it because she was being kind.

Soon the cart was filled with Sirius, James and Peter talking about their summers while Remus explained where everything in the castle was to Spencer. It wasn't a long explanation, but the girl's attention was focused on him.

Because of that no one noticed the door sliding open to show an older boy and girl. The boy looked over the small group with a sneer before coming to stop at Spencer and having the sneer turn to a smile.

"Hello," the boy spoke his voice barely over a bored drawl his eyes focused on Spencer, "I don't believe we've met. I am Lucius Malfoy. And you?"

"Spencer Potter," she greeted with a smile, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Lucius."

"Likewise. Why don't you come sit with us? Get away from these unworthy of your beauty?"

"I don't...I don't understand."

"Little Spencer, don't you know? Ah, Potter. Of course your mind has been filled with lies of these people. Come. I can tell you the truth."

Gritting his jaw James started to stand up only to see his sister shaking her head. Hazel eyes met letting the Gryffindor see the sadness that was held in her eyes. Damn, he really hated seeing that look in her eyes.

"I don't know who told you that, Lucius," Spencer started with a shake of her head, "But they're wrong. There's nothing unworthy of anyone. I don't see how you can even think that. Please. Leave."

Spencer turned away from Lucius and towards Remus. The boy looked around the cart wondering what he was supposed to do only for his eyes to come to stop at Spencer once more.

Seeing the sadness play in her eyes he found himself slowly moving towards her and resting a hand on her shoulder. That seemed to be permission enough to Spencer who moved closer to the boy and buried her head in his chest.

Remus sat up straighter feeling more and more uncomfortable by the moment, but not wanting to move the girl. Sometimes he truly hated that he was a good guy that cared about people he barely knew.

"He's gone," Remus whispered rubbing her back, "He left."

"Did he..." Spencer pulled back looking around, "Did he look mad?"

"That doesn't matter," Sirius jumped it, "It's Malfoy."

"What does that have to do with anything? He's still a person."

"I'm not sure of that."

Spencer stared a Sirius for a moment as if she was trying to figure out whether the older man was being truthful. With a shake of her head Spencer stood up and walked out of the cart without saying anything.

As the door closed James let out a sigh. He knew that following her right now wouldn't end right. She needed time to think about everything that just happened. Hopefully that time wasn't going to be shared with Malfoy.

The Gryffindor knew that Malfoy wasn't a good man. He had made that very clear and they had only known each other for a year. Though why he had just talked to Spencer like it was nothing was beyond him.

Slytherin's always had an underhanded plan though. He had to be planning something. There was no way... Okay, so it's possible that he didn't have a plan, but there was no way James was going to think that way.

"Your sister is..." Sirius started to say with a shake of his head.

"I know," James sighed running a hand through his hair, "She feels everything. What am I supposed to do?"

"I don't know, but it's going to get her killed."

"Don't you think I know that, Sirius? She just sees the world so different than anyone else I know. She believes everyone is good unless she sees it herself. I'm trying to protect her, guys. I really am, but it's a lot harder than it sounds."

"I'll apologize to her tomorrow. Don't worry. We'll help you protect her. You'll going to need the help."
