This is after Book 7. It is the start of James' first year. This is my first Harry Potter Fan Fic so I hope you enjoy it and please leave reviews. I'll update the next chapter soon.
Alice Luce Clarkson was excited. She had received a letter over the summer to attend Hogwarts. She had gone with her parents to Diagon Alley and had bought an owl from Eeylops. He was a beautiful tawny color. She loved the magical feel of it all and couldn't wait to learn about Hogwarts. In fact, as soon as her parents and she had arrived home that evening from buying all her necessary school supplies, and a couple extra books that interested her, she was digging into her books to learn about Hogwarts, and the wizarding world.
Finally it was the day that she was to start. She and her parents made their way to Platform 9 ¾. She could tell that she was in the correct place, for she watched as a few others with owls, and trunks disappeared through the wall barrier. She was rather nervous, as this was all very new to her, and was afraid that when she went through the wall and came out on the other side that everyone would be staring at her. She realized, though, that she was completely wrong and realized that most everyone was either loading luggage on to the train, or saying good-bye to their families. She did take note that there were some people watching a family of five near her. When the father of the family bent down next to the oldest of the two children she got a glimpse of the man and noticed a scar in the shape of a lighting bolt. She quickly realized who this was from one of the books she had read. She then tugged on her own father's pant leg. Her father than knelt down besides her, sensing her nervousness and excitement.
"You okay Luc?" He asked using his little pet name for her.
"Look Dad, that's Harry Potter. I read abouthim in one of my books. He's famous."
"Ok, Luc." Her father said as he patted her head and stood up. "Let's get you loaded up."
With that, her father and mother figured out where to get her trunk loaded on the train, and turned to say good-bye. Alice looked up at her mom and dad and hugged them quickly before bounding on to the train with her owl in hand.
"Bye Mom. Bye Dad. I'll write you. See you at Christmas." She said before disappearing into the train.
The young girl pushed her long auburn hair behind her ear. In one hand, she had her owl in its cage. In the other she had a couple books. She was already in her robes, and soon began to look for a compartment to look for a seat. She found a seat in the middle of the train, and slowly slid it open and sat down, and looked out the window. From the window she saw her parents, so she gave a little wave before looking at some of the others that were still saying good-bye. Again she saw Harry Potter who then was giving his oldest son a hug before he disappeared onto the train. Alice turned away from window and picked up one of the books she had set down in the seat next to her and began to read.
