So this is my first Potter Fic. Basicaly its about the next generation of Wizards, aka the characters from the time skip in Deathly Hallows. So yeah...i'll let you read this not so good story.
Disclamer: i dont own harry potter end of.
Albus and Rose were discussing their views on the houses when a knock on the door postponed the discussion."Erm...would I be able to sit here please? There's nowhere else and people keep slamming the door on me... It's ok if not I'll just stand outside." A blonde haired boy murmured as he started to turn around and walk away.
"Hey of cause you can." Smiled Rose and patted the seat next to her. "I'm Rose Weasley, this is Albus Potter." She said pointing to her cousin opposite. He waved slightly. "I know who you are. Scorpius Malfoy." She smiled. "A Weasley and a Potter... Father will kill me if he knew I was sitting with you two." What confused the pair was that Scorpius was smiling at his comment.
"Yes it would seem our fathers didn't see eye to eye. Apparently I have to beat you in every test." Rose giggled. "Yeah Uncle Ron can be pretty childish at times." Albus laughed.
"So you don't mind who my father is? I thought you two of all people would." He asked curious. "Well he turned good didn't he. Well as good as a Slytherins can be." Rose thought out loud. "There's nothing wrong with Slytherins." It wasn't young Malfoy which spoke but Albus Potter. They both looked at him strangely. "Slytherins can be good I know they can. People just don't want to see them as good. They don't give them the chance." He seemed to be talking to himself as he stared out of the window.
"Y-you don't have to say that because I'm here. Quite frankly I'd prefer to be anywhere but in Slytherins." Scorpius stuttered. "What...oh no truly I believe that. There's so much hate still in the world. Not just the Wizarding World either. I just don't understand why people can get along. If they stop reading the cover of the book and read it front to back. Surely people could understand each other better? I mean Gryffindor and Slytherin have always been at each other's throats. I don't mean for there to be no competition but just act a bit more like Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff." Albus spoke as if he was making an important speech. Attempting to change the minds of many.
"Wooah Albus just earlier you were panicking about being placed into Slytherin. Now you 're standing up to them?" Rose was quite confused which was a fair occasion for her. "Well I hate them." Scorpius turned away and crossed his arms in front of him. "Ok I officially don't like being confused." Rose announced as she massaged her temple.
"Look at all the pain they've cause. Most of them are dark wizards and supported well You-Know. Anyway I despise every Slytherin they're the cause of most murders. I hate their views on muggle-borns and half-bloods. It atrocious most of the 'pure blood' families aren't even pure. O-oh s-sorry I've had that on my chest for a while." He blushed sending colour to his pale cheeks.
"You know what Scorpius." Rose asked. "W-what?" He was waiting for her to yell at him for some unknown reason. "You ain't half bad." Albus snorted and Rose's ears turned. "What?" Scorpius asked confused at the pair's reactions. "Nothing just Rose reverted to my Uncle Ron's accent again. She always tries to sound formal and smart like her Mum, my Aunt." Albus burst into laughter and Roses cheeks turned pink to. A sign of extreme embarrassment.
"No I don't" she mumbled. This just made Albus laugh harder. "I don't see anything wrong with it. Adds to personality right." He smiled at Rose. For a while it was quite minus the few suppressed laughs coming from Albus's corner.
Just then James, Fred and Louis walked in without knocking. "Hey Al just wanted to pop in and see if you've drove yourself insane thinking about the sorting." He smiled as he plonked himself next to his brother. Fred sat next to him and stretched his legs out on the chair. Louis walked in and sat next to Scorpius. "Good day ta ya mate. Visage comme un âne ânes. " Rose gasped, James and Fred just laughed. "Apologise Louis!" Rose yelled. She was most likely the only one in the room who understood what Louis had said. James and Fred would just have been laughing at the fail Australian accent with a hint of French.
"Hey didn't notice you there Rose how are you?" Rose just glared. "Sorry person who I don't know who I defiantly didn't insult in French." He turned back to Rose and smiled. "Scorpius meet are Cousin Louis." She said through gritted teeth the accent flaring. "You better apologize most likely Louis." Albus suggested, "Yeah you know it's time to set thing straight when the accent appears." James laughed. But he was serious and they all knew it. They'd all been on the end of her 'accent' except her favourite cousin Albus.
"Hey its' alright." Scorpius scratched the back of his neck smiling through the awkwardness. Rose continued to glare past Scorpius at Louis. "Chill out Rose. Hey dude I'm sorry." He smiled. "No prob-"Scorpius was cut off by Rose. "His name is Scorpius." "Hey Scorpius nice to meet you." Smiled Fred holding out his hand to shake. Attempting to finish the convocation James shook his hand next. "Do you own a last name?" He grinned. "Malfoy." Scorpius stated. Instantly James's grip tightened considerably until Albus stood on his toe. "Well best be going." Louis said grabbing Fred and James and pulling them out of the carriage.
"I take it as you two are exceptions of the Potter Weasley family on your views towards the Malfoys." He frowned. He himself hadn't done anything wrong. Just the stupid reputation of his father and grandfather caused him many awkward hellos and goodbyes like this.
"Yeah they're alright really. You just got to give him time. James has strong opinions about Slytherins. I wonder if he'd disown me if I'm put there." Albus apologized. "I'm sure he wouldn't Al. I mean he's your brother that's a strong bond." Rose smiled "Well I presume we'll be arriving soon. I'll go find Victorie and let you guys get changed. I'm sure she's already pining for Teddy." With that she left the two boys alone.
Just after the boys had finished getting changed people started to slowly make their way to the corridor. They where nearly there. The train slowed down and pulled softly to a stop. There was laughter coming from the corridor. As the pair stepped out excitement filled their lungs. They carried their trunks through the crowd of people onto the platform. "First year's ova 'ere. First years!" Bellowed a huge messy haired man. 1st years were reluctantly edging towards the man. "Hagrid!" Yelled Albus as he ran towards him leaving his bags behind. The giant pulled him of his feet into an almost crushing hug.
"Great ta see ya again Albus. 'ows ya father doing?" He smiled down as he put Albus on his feet. "The whole family sends their love." Albus smiled. "Hagrid!" Another yelled. Rose was seen in the crowd pulling her bags with her. Again she was greeted with an almost crushing hug. "Rose you've grown yar hair out." Hagrid bellowed again "First years ova 'ere!" then spoke normally again "Suits ya it does." Albus ran off to get his bags from an awestruck Scorpius. Who followed behind him.
"An who might this be then?" Hagrid asked bending lower to get a closer look at Scorpius. "S-Scorpius Malfoy sir. Pleased to meet you." He held out a shaking hand towards the giant...giant. "Malfoy eh?" Hagrid shook his hand. "Look like ya father ya do. Though I suppose ya aint as...well er as..." he struggled to describe Malfoy in anyone but mean. "Pompous?" Scorpius offered. "Yeah well it's err good to see ya."
"First years follow me!" He bellowed. The crowd had dispersed other then the 1st years there was only a few stragglers. Rose walked on Hagrid's right and Scorpius followed Albus on his left. They walked in the light of the lantern Hagrid carried high above his heads, until they met a lake. The boats floated gently and lit the gloom. Hagrid sat in a boat on his own. Albus, Rose and Scorpius clamoured into the one next to him.
When everyone was finally settled in the boats they slowly moved down the lake unaided. They bobbed along in silence until a spectacular view appeared in front of them. The castle stood on top of a hill its flickering lights cast its huge shadow over them. Mutters of 'wow' and 'ace' or 'awesome' were heard amongst the first years.
