This is a story I have been planning about for some time. I thought as J.K Rowling wrote about Harry and Ginny's children going to Hogwarts, I decided to take on the story. I write a lot of storys at school and I have been given high levels for those stories. So enjoy.

James Potter and Voldemort's heir

Chapter one: The Hogwarts express

James waved out of the window to his proud Mother and Father, just before the train turned the corner, leaving the platform behind. James was very excited about arriving at Hogwarts, making friends and performing magic. "Hello, James. You look very happy, judging by the smile on your face!" Came a slow and happy voice. "You know, you sound very like someone my dad described!" James said as he looked round. "I don't know how he would know me... but he might have gone to Hogwarts in the same year as my mum?" Asked a girl with long and wavy blonde hair. She had sea blue eyes and a smile on her face that James adored. "Yeah, maybe. How do you know my name?" James asked, pushing his overgrown hair behind his ears. "It's obvious, isn't it? Your dad is Harry Potter. You're in the Daily Prophet, and the Quibbler that my granddad edits-She explained to James, while looking out of the glossy window with her wide and shiny eyes. "Your Granddad? The editor? That's Xenophilius Lovegood! So… you're a Lovegood? What's your name?" James interrupted. He sounded joyful, and was looking at her watching out the window, waiting for an answer. Finally she answered. "Sorry, those trees were quite extraordinary… anyway…. My name is Raven Lovegood." Raven Lovegood watched James. He suddenly looked confused. "But you would have a different surname right? I mean, your dad's surname?" James asked. "Well, they split up quite a while ago. So our surname is Lovegood again. He left when I was a baby, didn't want a baby I guess. We haven't seen him since." She still looked happy, and smiled as they passed some more trees that were losing their leaves. She seemed to have an interest in trees. "I'm so sorry to bring it up again…. Err…. Let's find a compartment. Before they are all gone." James tried to change the subject. "Oh sure! My back is aching an awful lot…. I was hoping to sit down." Again she smiled, and followed James up the corridor.

Soon they found one, in the middle of the corridor. "This one looks nice. Let's get our trunks on the shelf." Raven suggested. James helped Raven lift hers onto the shelf, before doing his own. "Oh wait! I left the newest Quibbler in there!" Raven giggled. "That actually reminds me, my money is in there. I was going to get some sweets from the trolley." James also laughed. Again they lifted their trunks down. James pulled the zip down on his trunk, and shoved his hand down the inside pocket. Inside he felt not just money, but paper. He pulled them both out, and examined it. It was an envelope with the words 'Our son James' In his Mother's joined up writing. He ripped open the envelope, and pulled out the letter. He unfolded it, and read it.

'Dear James, we placed this in the pocket where your money is so you would find this on the train, and have something extra to read. Good luck at Hogwarts, and we hope you get sorted into Gryffindor. We know you will anyway, as we were both in that house! And we know by your personality that your brave. So, let us know when you have a chance, and send your Owl Hedwig Junior to us, when we send her to you. "Because they were too heavy together." James laughed. Also let us know if you've made any friends, and who they are! We're very proud of you son. We know you'll do well. We'll write to you again soon, Mum and Dad and Albus, and baby Lilly. Xxxxx That made James even more excited.

"What's that?" Raven said indicating the letter. "Oh, just a letter from my parents. Nothing much. Err… Raven…. Why are you reading the Quibbler upside-down?" James asked. "Oh, I always do that. I can read it better and it's more interesting seeing words and pictures upside-down." Raven answered muffled, as her face was buried in her book. A few hours passed, and James and Raven changed to their plain black sorting robes. A few hours passed. The trolley came once, James bought one thing. Another couple of hours, and a blanket of darkness spread across the outside land.

Just as they crossed the bridge near Hogwarts, James said, "We're nearly there! Raven! Come on, look out the window!" James shouted as Raven lifted her head out of the book 'History of the Nargles' "Why yes! It's beautiful isn't it? I'm ever so excited!" Raven started to act quite hyper at this point. "Look at you!" James laughed, "Your jumping up and down in your seat!" "I do that a lot; anyway Hogwarts is still a few miles away." Raven said logically. "How do you know? I can see it in the distance! It can't be a few miles away, surely!" James replied. "But it is! Have you read a History of Hogwarts 2?" Raven asked. "No, I'm not much of a reader. I always used to practise spells, and show them to my little brother and baby sister before I came here. Did you know you can't use magic outside of school once you're here?" James asked back. "Course I do silly! It was in the Hogwarts letter inviting me to the school!" Raven laughed. "Oh, I didn't really read that. Just the title, the date I was coming to school, and the shopping list!" James laughed again. "That reminds me!" Raven said with her eyes wide. "What?" James asked while Raven got her trunk down, yet again, and opened a small pocket with netted holes. She reached inside, and pulled something hairy out. A cat! It was black and white, and had an absolutely gorgeous pattern on its fur. It purred slowly, while James had his eyes wide, at this random appearance looking at the pattern around its eyes. It was mostly black, with white patterns. Around its eyes was an even better pattern. Waves that danced around her eyes. Her eyes were green and slitted.

"Oh this is Midnight. She wanted a nap, so I set up a bed for her." Raven explained, stroking midnights fur. "I do love its fur." James told her. Raven smiled, "That's why I picked her! Absolutely lovely she was, cute and cuddly. She's only a kitten though. But I love kittens! Who knew Muggles had such marvellous creatures!" James didn't notice it was just a kitten. He smiled back, just as the compartment door opened. A little old lady walked in yet again with the trolley packed with sweets. "Yes!" Raven got excited again. When that same sentence left her lips, "Anything from the trolley dears?" James immediately stood up, walked over to the trolley with his money in his hands. As did Raven. "I'll have 3 chocolate frogs, 2 packs of Every Flavour Beans, a pack of fizzing whisbees, a pack of Choco balls, and 5 liquorice wands!" James read out his list, "You can share with me if you like Raven. You didn't bring any money here." "Oh that's very generous of you James, but it would be unfair. I wouldn't be able to pay you back for a whole term!" Raven stared at the trolley. She did seem a bit sad. "Don't pay me back. Here, I'll buy you 3 things. Don't say no. I don't want you to watch me eat." James replied. "Oh thank you ever so much James! I'll have some lemon drops, cauldron cakes and a pack of 'Bertie Bots Every Flavour Beans' Please!" Raven asked. The lady passed over all the things while James paid. And with that, the lady left to the next compartment and James and Raven started to tuck in.
