Chapter 1:
The Potter manor was never empty.
It was especially full once the summer vacations rolled in, with both family members, children and adults, as well as family friends and distant relatives.
The Potter family consisted of Harry, Ginny, James, Albus and Lily Potter, as well as their dozens of Weasley relatives.
As for family friends were the Longbottom's, the Scamander's, the Pretter's and the Monther's. Alfred Pretter, Rosette Monther and Sergius Monther were more resent members of the extended Potter-Weasley family.
They had showed up at Hogwarts for their sixth year, and become a part of the gang of friends almost immediately.
The Potter-Weasley and extended family was now gathered at Potter manor to celebrate the start of the new school year, that was starting in 2 days. Molly Weasley was the focus of attention since she had made Head girl for her seventh year. She was both excited and nervous for her final year. The nervousness came from the fact that her cousins Fred, James, Roxanne and Dominique attended the same year as her, and would probably leave the school with a bang, through some sort of massive prank for her to clean up. However, she was more glad, since their family friend, Alfred, was going to take up the position as DADA teacher for this semester, and he was better at the whole 'strict thing' than Neville.
Alfred was at the moment chatting with Rosette and Sergius Monther, his oldest friends. The three of them had started attending Hogwarts at the beginning of sixth year. They had previously been home-schooled, however, their parents wanted to give them the protection that Hogwarts provided after the rise of Voldemort in 1995. Alfred was telling them how excited he was to start in his position as DADA teacher, and that he might actually end the whole 'jinx-thing'.
"Al, just be careful at Hogwarts, you know. It is not the same as when we went there". Alfred or Al, which his closest friends called him, had not been at Hogwarts since 1998, at the battle of Hogwarts.
The three of them had all taken part in the battle without a lot of the practice the members of Dumbledore's' Army had had. Alfred's godchild, Albus Potter, was starting his sixth year, together with his best friend and cousin, Scorpius Malfoy and Rose Weasley. The three of them hadbeen a group, much to the dismay of Rose Weasley, for as long as anyone could remember.
The new generation of the Golden trio was currently sitting in one of the corners, discussing their sixth year.
"It's gonna be so weird to have two family friends at school now. I can't really imagine calling Alfred for Professor Pretter, I mean it was okay with Neville, since we were eleven back then.", Rose told her cousin.
"I know exactly what you mean, Al's my godfather, I will have such a hard time with that", the other Al, Albus Potter, responded.
"I don't really see why it would be so hard. I grew up calling my grandfather 'Mr. Malfoy', I think I'll manage. However, if it is too much for Rosie to handle…", Rose gave him her infamous 'I will kill you if you call me Rosie look and stop making fun of me' look, while Albus sported a 'can you stop pestering her, why are you always doing that' look.
The night went on with more bickering and jokes between the group, and soon enough the celebration was over, and Hogwarts was only a day away.
