Padfoot's Children

A HP story

Chapter One

"Bye honey, enjoy your first day at school," said mum, waving sadly. Gee Mum, thanks. My first day at a NEW school where NEW people will HATE me for the freak that I am I thought pessimistically.

"Aw cheer up sis, you can start anew here," said Benji. "That's easy for you to say, you only have FOUR weird powers," "I have to agree with Roxxi. You have three powers while between Roxxi and I, we have fifteen!" said Chloe, my younger sister. Seventeen actually she is SO smart, only 14 but she skipped two years, making her in her sixth year. Benji, twin brother, is 17, athletic and in seventh year. I am the...don't know, most powerful of the three of us? At seventeen, am a freak and in seventh year.

Oh, you want to know about the weird powers. Here is the explanation.

Benji – He can see into the Present (see things that are happening right now), can control the weather, can conjure it, is a Legilimens (he can see memories) and quite skilled at Occlumency (he can block you from seeing his).

Roxxi the freak writing this – Telekinetic (can move things with my freaky mind); I'm also Telepathic (I can see what you're thinking). I am generally accomplished at Legilimens and Occlumency (Do I need to explain that again?), can see into the Past (I can see what happened before), I posses the powers of Darkness and Fire, a Healing Killer and oh and I have a weird power that I can't exactly figure out.

Chloe – She has the power of nature, can control anything to do with electronics or music. She can shoot 'star bolts' (bolts of energy), is accomplished at Legilimens and Occlumency (ditto), she can see into the Future (the most powerful Seer of the three of us) and she can do wand-less magic.

We are a powerful bunch. So do not mess with us.

"So what do we do now?" asks Chloe. "Erm...I don't know," says Benji. "You're the sole male in this family now, and yet you're the dumb one. Hello? The village called, they want their idiot back," I say. I smack him upside the head. "Why don't we go ask those people there?" says Chloe. She grabs my hand and drags me off to them. Benji follows behind and takes my trolley along with his.

"Go on, you're the Charmer," says Chloe, pushing me. "Excuse me," I say. A pair of red headed twins turns around. "Why, hello, how can we be of service," said one of them. "Well, my sister, IDIOT brother and I are new here. So we'd like to know how to get on the train," I say. "Oi, I am not an idiot," yells Benji. "If you say so," I say in a singsong voice. "I'm George and well, you're supposed to run through that wall," said his twin. "NO frickin' WAY!" yells Chloe.

"Well, if you're scared, you can always go with one of our siblings or their friends who go there, and I'm Fred" he said. I looked behind them and a girl with red hair, two boys with red hair, a girl with bushy brown hair and a boy with jet-black hair were behind them. "Oh okay, by the way, I'm Roxxi, that's Chloe and he's Benji," I say. The people behind them look up. "Well, I'm Ron, that's Ginny and her friend, Gabriel," says one of the red headed boys. "I'm Hermione Granger and that's Harry Potter," nodding in the black haired boy's direction.

He looks up and I look at him. His emerald green eyes, filled with sadness and loss; they mirrored the emotions in my own misty grey eyes. He gives me a small smile; I do the same and turn back to the rest. Fred nudges me. "Now, you and Harry would be perfect for each other. One Emo chick and one Emo boy, and you achieved the impossible: making Harry smile," he says, with an evil grin. I blush. "Now, we all have to pair up, so Ginny and Hermione, Chloe and Gabriel, Ron and Benji and ah, the clincher, Harry, you go with Roxxi," says George, mirroring his twin's evil expression. My jaw drops.

"You both are so DEAD the next time I see you," I hiss. I stand next to Harry and calm myself down. "Ready?" he asks, quietly. It practically broke me to hear him.

Someone at the age of 17, having to mature before his time, oh yeah, yes I know who Harry Potter is, and how he was before...It is all to do with Dad.

I nod silently and we go through the barrier. I see the scarlet train and I stop in awe for a while. "Come on, we should go," said Harry, tugging at my sleeve, slightly. I nodded – again – and followed him onto the train. We stowed our stuff there and sat down. He stared out the window and I looked down at my hands. Ron and Hermione came in. "Oh hi. Where did my sister and brother go?" I asked. "Chloe went with Ginny and Gabriel to hang out with some 6th Year Gryffindors. How old is she anyway? Benji went to hang out with some 7th year Ravenclaws," said Ron.

"Oh that's okay then and Chloe's 14, in sixth year. I can still stay here right?" I ask. "Yeah, sure, why would we want to kick you out?" asked Hermione. "You would if you knew who and what I am," I say, in a small voice. "Well, that's just it, we DON'T know anything about you," said Ron. "Well, it's time for a discussion then. Excuse me while I call my brother and sister," I say. "Tendrils of Darkness, RETRIEVE," I chant. Several tendrils of pure shadow snake out from my fingertips.

Ron's eyes go wide. "How – how are you doing that?" stammers Ron. "Like I said, all will be explained, dear cousin," I say. "You're my cousin?" he says, confused. "Yeah, on my dad's side, along with the Malfoy-pig and that bitch Bellatrix," I say. "It can't be," said Harry.

Then my sister and brother float in. "I could have you electrocuted," growls Benji. "And then strangled with my vines," says Chloe. "Hah, you can't. Uncle Nicholas gave me a gift before he passed on," I say. I draw out my necklace. On it were three charms, a blood red stone, a green emerald and a bronze oval shaped locket. Chloe holds up her necklace with an identical stone, a blue sapphire and a gold heart shaped locket, "You weren't the only one," she says. Benji pulls out his necklace with a purple amethyst, a silver round locket and the identical stone. "Neither were the both of you," he says. "EXPLAIN THIS NOW," said Ron.

"Well, we are the son and daughters of a man well known to you," said Benji. "Who is it?" asked Hermione. "Chloe, Roxxi," he said. "Shield of Darkness and Flames," I said and the shields appeared at one end. "Shields of Nature and Technology," said Chloe and her shields appeared at the other end. I stepped up. "This man," I said and projected an image of...

(It is the dreaded CLIFFHANGER!)

Rule One: Do not make us angry. Or, we will get you.

oud enough for the two to hear.
