A History of Magicians
Chapter 1
Albus Severus Potter would never like to admit it but the thing he had most in common with his Elder brother James Sirius Potter was not the love of his family. It was his obsession with his name and therefore his obsession with his namesakes.
When Harry felt that Albus was old enough to learn about the war, the first thing he said was regarding his children's namesakes. He told him their life stories and sacrifices. Next he talked about his Hogwarts years which literally answered every question Al had in mind. But as he got older and learnt more details about the war and its heroes and villains, Albus realized that he knew very little about his first name's early life. Harry's descriptions of Albus Dumbledore nearly always featured him with a long flowing beard.
When Albus went to Hogwarts he met Scorpius Malfoy and along with Al's cousin Rose Weasley they formed what was called the next Golden Trio. Ironic that a Potter and Granger-Weasley should become best mates with a Malfoy, but the biggest surprise was when they all ended up in Gryffindor together. It was an unlikely Friendship but a true one.
When Al got his first detention he was sent to Mcgonagall's office, which was for the first few minutes fortunately empty. Here he met Dumbledore's portrait for real. Al began to ask him many questions about his young life so that he could idolize him for who he truly was for which Dumbledore gave a single answer ,"Regret is my constant companion. There are many things in my youth that I wished to hide for they all involved trusting a dark practitioner with impractical ideas."
A little exploring the library with Rose and Al learnt for the first time about Gellert Grindelwald .The name that struck fear in the hearts of all before Lord Voldemort.
Albus let it rest at the time and enjoyed his life. But in History of Magic in Third year, He learnt about Voldemort's history from life to death and realized with a start that Voldemort killed Grindelwald. This opened Al's mind to a whole new world of possibilities and he felt there was more to Dumbledore's story than what everyone knew. Thus began his research.
Albus had always liked History which shocked all his family except his Aunt Hermione who was pleased. In fact when Al came home with Top marks In History, Ron and Fred and George joked about disowning him. Rose was Hermione's daughter and whatever she did was acceptable but according to the Family Albus was Harry Potter's son (who got a dreadful in his History of Magic OWL exam) so his was another story. Nevertheless, History, defense against the dark arts and potions were all topped by Al and Rose in their year.
In his Fourth year Al asked his father about Dumbledore's family. Harry answered truthfully and told Albus everything which Dumbledore told him during their final meeting in Kings Cross station. Al left with more Questions than answers. Dumbledore's friendship with Grindelwald intrigued him and a little research showed that Newt Scamander, Lorcan and Lysander's great grand dad was involved in overthrowing Grindelwald to a great extent .However Al got no answer from Newt when he went with his Family to visit Luna Lovegood. The story of The Deathly Hallows and the fact that his Father was the only Known Master of Death Led to Albus Severus Potter making a decision in his fifth year. He was going to pursue History of Magic for his higher Studies along with Other Subjects for auror training. He wanted to study Gellert Grindelwald for his NEWT.
HE was going to uncover the real truth behind Dumbledore and Grindelwald. And his Quest had just begun.
