Ok I promise this is the last rewrite of this but I messed up and just realized I didn't change the things I thought I had. Thank you for reading and please leave some reviews!
In the Beginning
It has been a while since my first day starting Hogwarts but I remember it as if it was yesterday, oh what a yesterday that was:
The Black family was standing on the Platform to the Hogwarts Express, awaiting the arrival of the train to send the older of the two boy's off on his first year to Hogwarts. Orion stood there tall glaring at any one who dare look their way. His black eyes were piercing and unforgiving like his pristine silk robes that he wore. His wife Walburga stood beside him but her eyes watching the two boy's like a hawk ready to reprimand them for any of their misbehavior. Sirius was the one closest to her; he was dressed similar to his father and stood there as quietly and still as physically possible being a good Pure-blood prodigy. His little brother Regulus stood next to him trying his best to imitate his brother and father but finding it a little difficult staying still.
"Can we go soon?" Regulus made the mistake of whining. His mother turned her glare on him and was about to reprimand him before Sirius stepped in.
"I should head on to the train, can't be late, and I don't want to waste too much of your time Father." Sirius looked up at the man.
"Very well, remember I don't want you speaking to those mudbloods, and if I hear about you disgracing the family you will be punished." His voice was low and caused a shiver to run through Sirius though he tried his best to hide it
"Yes sir," Sirius nodded and left to the train. "Thank you, bye Sy." Sirius heard Regulus whisper as he walked away.
Once he was out of site his family left and Sirius relaxed standing there in the middle of the hallway. He was basking in his newfound freedom when someone ran into him making them both topple over and onto the floor.
"I'm so sorry! I just…they're attacking!" the girl scrambled to get up.
That's when Sirius heard the screeching voice of his cousin, "GET BACK HERE YOU MUDBLOOD!" Narcissa was storming down the hallway.
"What did you do?" Sirius jumped up, he was trying to avoid his cousins at all costs.
"I'll let you know once we get out of here!" The blonde girl grabbed him and ran weaving through the crowds of people that flooded the halls then ducked into a compartment. They hid in there as they heard her pass screaming that she'll find the girl and skin her alive. They heard another voice soon after, that convinced Narcissa to head back to the seats they were occupying. Sirius sighed and opened the door to make sure the coast was clear.
"Alright it looks safe." Sirius walked out with her and down the hall back to where his trunk was. "So what did you do to get her ready to kill you?"
The girl gave a happy grin "well I told her that her clothes were ugly and that they would look so much better with a dung bomb and proceeded to throw one on her."
Sirius stopped and stared at her in shock before he started laughing, "That's brilliant!"
"I know," she smiled "I'm Olivia by the way Olivia Hunter." she held out her hand when he calmed down.
"I'm Sirius Black; it's nice to meet you." Sirius went to shake her hand but she pulled it away.
"You're a Black? I was told you're like all evil." Olivia recoiled a little.
Sirius rolled his eyes, "If I was evil I would have turned you into my cousin that was yelling Mudblood at you."
Olivia frowned a little in thought, and that's when a boy walked up, "is this guy bugging you Olive?" he stood tall in between the two as if her were a body guard even though he was shorter than Olivia.
"Jamie, its fine, I kinda dragged him along when I was on the run." She tugged on his arm, "let's go-"
"Yeah go on, you're not needed here Potter." Sirius says shooing him with his hand.
"You think you're all big and bad Black?" James shrugged off Olivia.
"Uh whoa guys calm down" Olivia got in between them. "Look everything is fine he even laughed at what I did to the girl." Olivia attempts to calm James.
"She deserves it," Sirius chuckled.
"You're an odd Black…" James stopped glaring at him.
Olivia shrugged "I kinda like him."
"Oh do you!" both of them automatically teased her.
"Not like that you twits!" she hit them both in the arm. "So can we all be friends?"
"I guess," James nods and held his hand out, "I'm James, only she's allowed to call me Jamie."
"Alright Jamie, I'm Sirius" Sirius gave a smirk James shook his head and they headed to the compartment James and Olivia had claimed.
James stopped looking into the window "Olive it's her, the girl I saw on the platform! She's in our area thing."
"No Jamie she has her own ours is right here" she shook her head at him. "Oh" James sighed and followed her in.
Olivia shook her head, "Well you're the one that split her juice on her dress, if you hadn't done that then I would suggest you go talk to her."
"I said I was sorry!" James protested.
"While you kept running, she looked like she was about to cry." Olivia scolded him.
James sighed "and she's pretty too, she's probably pretty when she cries too."
Sirius chuckled and the train started moving. "And we're off."
Olivia smiled at him "so Sirius, are you the white sheep of the Black family then?"
Sirius bit the inside of his lip knowing the question was going to come. " I'm not like my family, I don't think what they all believe in is right, I do believe that muggle borns should have more education about the wizarding world but I don't think blood purity is all that."
"Can we keep him Jamie?" Olivia smiled.
James laughed and shook his head at her. "Don't mind her mate, she's a little coo coo."
Sirius chuckled "it's alright, I don't mind. I'm guessing you both want to be in Gryffindor?"
"Every Potter is," James nods.
"I need to make sure he doesn't get himself into too much trouble so I hope I'm in there with him" Olivia nods.
Sirius smiled softly "well you have the guts to go into the Slytherins lair and prank one of them I definitely think you'll be a Gryffindor."
James looked over at him "you could be a Gryffindor too."
"I'm not too sure about that," Sirius looked down.
Olivia frowned "well we will see when we get there."
Sirius nodded and looked out the window. Olivia and James argued silently over who should say something to Sirius. Until Olivia sighed and moved to sit beside him, "If you do become Slytherin maybe you can help us prank them every once in awhile?" she bumped his shoulder gently and Sirius smiled at her.
"Sounds like a plan." He nodded and smiled at James.
James whooped as the door was slid open. Olivia looked up quickly scared it was the Slytherin to see a boy standing there panting.
"Um is there room in here?" he scratched a scar that was on his neck.
"Only Gryffindors allowed," James shook his head.
"James!" Olivia kicked him. "There plenty of room here he just likes being a jerk."
"Ow, and you like being abusive" James grumbled rubbing his shin.
"Oh thanks. Um I'm Remus Lupin." He introduced himself and took a seat next to James.
"James Potter" he tipped an air hat.
"Olivia Hunter," Olivia smiled.
"Uh Sirius." He nodded lightly.
"Sirius? Do you have a last name?" Remus chuckled softly.
"Black, I'm Sirius Black." Sirius tensed a little waiting for back lash. None came, Remus just smiled at him and nodded.
"It's nice to meet you all, are you Second years?" he held a satchel on his lap wearing the school button down with jeans.
"We are first years James is just family breed Gryffindor." Olivia laughed and yawned, "How long will the ride be you think?"
"Nap, I heard it's pretty long." James stood up and pulled a blanket out of her trunk and tossed it to her.
"Thank you Jamie," she curled up with it.
"If you want you can use my shoulder as a pillow," Sirius offered which Olivia did and fell asleep almost instantly.
James smiled softly and leaned against the window. "So Remus, are you into pranking?"
Remus raised an eye brow, "well it's written in your eyes that you are. I guess I don't mind a joke or two."
James smiled mischievously "I hope Hogwarts is ready for us."
"us?" Remus's eyes widened.
Sirius chuckled "you may have chosen the wrong compartment, but now you're stuck with us, Gryffindor or not."
"I-um- ok" Remus nodded but smiled and pulled out his book reading as he listened to James and Sirius talk about things they could do.
…
"Oh James I wish we could have gotten a picture." Olivia whispered as she held his hand tight waiting to get sorted.
"You'll just have to write it down so you don't miss a detail when you tell your dad" He squeezed her hand as Sirius was called up.
"Gryffindor," was shouted not too long after the hat was placed on his head.
"TRAITOR!" was yelled from the Slytherins but the Gryffindor's just cheered louder. Sirius nervously sat next to a pair of twins.
"Welcome to Gryffindor,"
"You're either incredibly brave,"
"Or incredibly stupid." They jumped back and forth while one patted his shoulder.
Sirius smiled softly "A little bit of both I believe."
"That's a Gryffindor for you." A boy chuckled from across the twins. The red headed girl James was swooning over joined the table next sitting a bit down from the boys. "We don't bite down here you can move closer." He smiled at her and she scooted closer to him. "Ryan Jones, Seventh year" he nods to the two of them.
"I'm Lily Evans." She smiled softly and turned back to the sorting. It was Olivia's turn to be sorted and just as the hat hit her head it shouted Gryffindor.
"You hear that Jamie!" She squealed and sat next to Sirius. "All we need is Remus in our house and it'll be perfect!"
Sirius laughed softly at her enthusiasm as they watched the sorting. They saw a girl get sorted not too long into Gryffindor as well and Ryan whooped loudly for her "That's my baby sister!" he yelled embarrassingly before she even had the hat placed on her head. Blushing she made her way to her brothers side.
"Told you, Jones's are always in Gryffindor," He hugged her into his side.
"Get off" she pushed him away, "now I can take your place on the team this year." She stuck her tongue out at him.
"You wish little one, maybe next year." He patted her head.
"We'll see when I try out." She smoothed out her hair, "Hi I'm Victorie" she turned to Lily "I guess we'd be living together." She held her hand out.
"Oh I'm lily, It's nice to meet you," Lily smiled.
"Oh hey roomies! I'm Olivia" Olive grinned from Sirius's side. "You're the girl from the platform. I'm sorry about your dress, Jamie is really bad at looking where he's going. Do you think it's ruined?"
"we'll see when it gets washed," she sighed but smiled softly. "I'd like an apology from him, not that yours doesn't mean anything, but you didn't do anything wrong."
"Don't hold your breath; James isn't a person that says I'm sorry very much." Olivia smiled back softly.
"Remus you made it!" Sirius nodded at the new addition to the Gryffindor table.
"Welcome to the Lions," Ryan smiled and Remus smiled back slightly and took his seat next to Lily.
"Jamie is next!" Olivia grinned and watches him get sorted into Gryffindor almost as quick as she was. She hugged him tight when he took his seat next to her.
"This is going to be great" James grinned mischievously.
Once the feast was over, they followed their prefect up to the Gryffindor common room after a quick tour through the castle from Ryan and the twins who they learned were Fabian and Gideon Prewett.
Once in their common room the first years sleepily went up to their dorms for a good night's rest. Not Sirius though, he stood up looking out a window thinking as he wrote to his parents. 'I'm in Gryffindor, I have friends that don't hate Muggles and muggle borns and a few muggle born friends. Wow. I've 'undone' eleven years of brainwashing in the course of a day… I say a day well spent.' Sirius smiled to himself and crawled into bed after writing his very vague letter.
Sirius was woken up from his delightful memory of his first day at Hogwarts when the Knight Bus stopped in front of him. He jumped on going to his second favorite place in the world, the Potter Manor.
"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.
Once again thank you for reading!
