Disclaimer: I tried to buy Harry Potter, but as it turns out, it's a multi-billion dollar franchise. Ah well. Everything here is beloved J.K. Rowling's.

Chapter 1 (possibly last):

Lilly Luna Potter, youngest child and only daughter of Harry and Ginny Potter, the saviors of the wizarding world. That was how she was known, right from the beginning, and she absolutely hated it. No one, I repeat, NO ONE, wanted to know her, not the real her, they just wanted to say they had met a Potter. So Little Lily Luna decided to be different, like she knew she was. She wasn't anything like her brave, bold, and sometimes stupid Gryffindor relatives, she planned things, was quick witted, and there for almost never got caught. Yes, Lilly knew she was different (although though she looked similar with her red hair and sparkling green eyes), and she started acting like it. She talked differently, dressed differently and had different colored hair tips nearly every month. She was different, no doubt about it, but really she hadn't changed; she just decided to stop pretending and be proud of different. This was whom she was, and she was going to let EVERYONE know.

When she turned 11, her Hogwarts letter came as expected. On that warm morning of September the 1st she walked through the wall and onto the platform with her father, grimacing as the stares of the students and their parents were immediately directed in their direction. Harry smiled to himself at the look of mild pain of his daughters face. Of the family, he had taken Lilly's transformation the past year the best. He understood his daughter's need to be seen as her, and not for what her father did, though he did wish she hadn't acted so drastically. She had nearly given her him a heart attack when she had come home a few weeks after summer started with her hair tips dyed lime green.

"I know, just ignore them." Harry whispered to his disgruntled daughter as he led her to the 4 member family which was, judging from the man's height and slight red he could he through the shifting steam and the crowd of parents and students, the Weasleys.

"LILLY!" someone yelled as they burst through the mist, and all she saw before she was knocked to the ground was a flash of red hair and a very excited face.

"Oof! Hello Hugo," wheezed Lilly, "um, air?"

"Oh! Sorry Lils." Hugo said as he scrambled up and offered Lilly his hand. Lilly accepted gratefully, and Hugo hauled her to her feet. Lilly grinned widely at him, her favorite cousin. He, like her father, had taken her change well, and even encouraged her to be different.

The rest of both the family showed up, Rose throwing a rather disdainful look on Lilly's ripped jeans, knee-high boots, and leather jacket combo. Lilly scowled. Out of all her cousins (which was a LOT), Rose was definitely her least favorite, and she had tried many times to find out how Hugo was related to her. While most of the family had eventually excepted her change, Rose was still adamant that it was disgusting and "not the way a saviors daughter should present herself!" which was, ironically, exactly what she was going for, not presenting herself as a saviors daughter. Hermione gave her a friendly smiley and hug and Ron promptly shouted

"LILLYKINS!" and scooped her up into a bear hug, spinning her in a circle. Lilly giggled as Ron set her on her feet, swaying dangerously. Hugo steadied her and Aunt Hermione turned to Ron

" Ron! Don't injured the girl before she gets there!" she scolded, but the effect was rather ruined by the grinned that refused to stay off her face. Ron just shrugged.

Suddenly, the train whistle blew. Lilly whipped around and gave her mom a quick hug and a kiss before turning to her father.

"Bye dad," she whispered, " I'll miss you"

" I'll miss you to," to her father, whispered back, " see you at Christmas"

Lilly turned and jumped onto the train, as it gave a final whistle and started to chug out of the station, without so much as a single glance back.

" I'll miss you more then you know," Harry said to himself as he watched her retreating back with her electric blue tipped red hair falling down in gentle waves, "more than you know."

And with that, he turned away from the scarlet engine that was taking his little girl away from him, and stepped through the barrier and into the busy muggle station, as his daughter left her childhood behind forever and stepped into the beginnings of really growing up.
