"Boys! Stop that!" A distressed woman sighed heavily as she watched the two teenagers trying to put each other in a headlock. "We're in public. Could you both please behave yourselves?"
Harry was currently sixteen years old and Adrian was thirteen. The two were half-brothers, and they were extremely close. They did practically everything together. They were in the same house at Hogwarts, Gryffindor, and they both loved causing trouble.
Harry's father had been killed when he was just an infant. He almost had lost his mother as well, but she managed to escape with the child altering both of their fates in the process. Their attacker left unharmed, but disappeared mysteriously. Voldemort had yet to return. Though, there had been many disappearances during the past several years. Some believed it to be Voldemort recollecting an army and building up the strength to take over the wizarding world completely.
No one knew why Voldemort had suddenly abandoned his follows and vanished. Those in the know were aware that the reason for the attack on the Potters was to murder the boy due to a prophecy. The prophecy would now fail to come true because of Lily's survival and Harry's lack of being attacked by Voldemort. There would be a new chosen one.
Lily and her husband of fourteen years, Severus, had taken their children to Diagon Alley to purchase their school supplies for their upcoming years at Hogwarts. Their youngest, Thomas, would be just starting at the school. Sev and their young son had departed from Lily and the older boys to pick up Thomas's very first wand.
The three were currently in Flourish and Blotts and Lily was getting very frustrated. She had given the unruly teenagers their lists and had instructed them to find their required books. Instead, the boys had been lead astray by some books all about pranks instead. "Harry James Potter and Adrian Samuel Snape, both of you better hurry up and get your books or we're going straight home and skipping lunch at the Weasleys'."
Both of the boys promptly found all the books on their lists and purchased them. As they exited the shop, Severus and Thomas approached.
"Blackthorn, ten inches, dragon heartstring, surprisingly swishy," The eleven year old proudly announced.
