Chapter 1: The Potters
Lily crawled out of bed walked into the kitchen.
"Mum," she groaned. "You really had to be that loud?"
Her mother had been singing to get Lily, James, Albus, and Ariel awake.
Albus and James stumbled out of their own rooms, moaning.
"Ariel!" Their mother called.
Lily's younger sister, Ariel, who was 5, came out of her own room sleepily.
"Mum...wha...goodnight.."
The bushy haired girl started to walk back into her own room, but Ginny grabbed her and carried her downstairs.
The other children followed her down.
They sat eating breakfast.
"So..." Harry said. "Are you all excited?"
He was talking about Hogwarts.
James was going into his 4th year. Albus was going into his 3rd. It was Lily's first year.
"Yeah!" Ariel said excitedly. "Can I go this time, Daddy, please?"
Ariel had been four last time they had gone to Platform 9 3/4. Her parents had claimed that she was too young.
Harry smiled. "Sure."
"Yay!"
Lily rushed upstairs and quickly got dressed in a striped yellow and pink sweater, jeans, and yellow butterfly clips holding back her short hair.
She came down to see James in a black hoodie and jeans, Albus in a red hoodie and jeans, and Ariel in a pink sweater dress with her brown, bushy hair sweeping down to her waist.
They all grabbed their already packed trunks and walked outside.
The six Potters were going to Kings Cross for the third time.
And Lily was going to Hogwarts!
