Chapter One.
A Fresh Start

Marcus Malfoy came from a very long line of pureblood wizards.

But they weren't happy jovial purebloods like the Weasleys for instance.

This was the notorious Malfoy-Black-Lestrange line.

Past death eaters.

Followers of Voldemort.

And didn't Marcus know it!

Whenever he stepped foot in the wizarding world, he was treated like scum. His Grandmother may have saved Harry Potter but that just about kept them out of Azkaban.

Today was his first day at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Marcus' eyes glazed over as he though of the sorting ceremony later on.

'Oh please not Slytherin.' He thought on the Hogwarts express. 'Please, if I'm in a different house, people might treat me differently!'

"Hello?" a boy with dirty orange hair poked his head into the carriage. "Mind me sitting here?"

"Sure." Marcus mumbled, he didn't like the way this redhead looked at him. "Blimey! You can't be…" he began before he shut himself up.

Marcus blushed red.

"I'm Hugo by the way." Said the boy.

Marcus breathed in deep.

"Marcus." He announced. "Marcus M-M-Malfoy."

Hugo's eyes were round like saucers, an orange eyebrow was raised, then lowered. Hugo was a kind boy, so what if this boy didn't have a good history?

"Nice to meet you Marcus." Hugo grinned. "Fizzing Whizbee?"

The boys were soon chatting, laughing and exchanging chocolate frog cards.

"I've got Ronald Weasley!" Marcus didn't mean to boast, it was just something he'd grown accustomed to seen as though his brother, Scorpius always did it.

"Cool." Hugo didn't seem to exited. He reached into his pocket and passed a picture to Scorpius.

There stood eight adults, a young adult and seven kids including Hugo.

Marcus looked closely and recognised three other familiar faces. He had seen them on chocolate frog cards and books. There was Ronald Weasley, Hermione Weasley and Harry Potter! (At this point, Marcus felt his knees weaken.) He had seen two other adults in books. One was Ginevra Potter, the well known captain of the Holyhead Harpies. The other was the Herbology teacher at Hogwarts, Professor Longbottom. The others were Luna and Newt Scamander, the famous radio presenters and writers of the 'Magical Beasts.' Section in The Quibbler, the most trusted Wizarding Newspaper. The other woman, Marcus did not recognise.

"See, that's my Mum and Dad," Hugo pointed to Ronald and Hermione. "And my Aunt Ginny and Uncle Harry. And my Godfather Neville and My Godmother Hannah, she's the landlady of the Three Broomsticks!" Hugo was pointing to the woman Marcus didn't know. "And there's Luna and Newt, they're family friends. Mum and Dad have known them for ages." He then pointed to twin boys. "And that's their kids, Lorcan and Lysander, they're coming up today. And there's Teddy." He pointed to a boy with bright green hair and square shaped eyes. "He's a metaphormagus, he's my Uncle Harry's Godson." Then he pointed to himself and a girl with red hair, "That's me and my sister Rose. She's Ravenclaw second year. That's my cousin James," he pointed to a brown haired imp, "He's third year Gryffindor. And that'd be my cousin Lily," he placed his finger on a cute little girl. "She's coming to Hogwarts next year. And that," he pointed to a boy with black hair and glasses. "Is my cousin, Albus, he's Gryffindor second year."

Obviously exhausted from this speech, he took a long swig of pumpkin juice.

"Cool! Grinned Marcus.

"Jordan, Janet." Called Professor Longbottom.

Janet Jordan walked up to the front, quite boldly. The sorting hat took a while and then finally cried "Gryffindor!"

"Loreto, Carl!"

Carl Loreto, an extremely small boy waddled to the front, the thing with Carl, was he had a rather large head. "Magical Mishap!" he would claim, and it was true. His father had once hit him with Engorgio and St Mungo's couldn't make it small again.

The hat had to be crammed onto Carls head which did look rather comical. The Slytherins all maliciously laughed, save one, a small pale girl at the back of the green clad table who looked like she'd rather be anywhere than right there.

Carl was placed into Ravenclaw.

"Malfoy, Marcus!"
The great hall fell silent. Malfoy? Slytherin for sure!
The last thing Marcus saw before the hat was dropped over his head was the small Slytherin girl, weeping.

'Hmm… I see a big heart, that is a true Hufflepuff but you seem brave as well. But not as brave as kind. You are also very clever. No qualities of a Slytherin though, of course you'll have to be in…'
"RAVENCLAW!"

A cheer rose up from the Ravenclaw table. A good Malfoy? Wow! Marcus was so happy he missed the fact that Hugo was also sorted into Ravenclaw.
"Nice job mate!" they said simultaneously.

As they began to eat, Marcus noticed a girl sitting across from them, her brown hair was tucked neatly into a sharp bun.

"Hi, nice to meet you! I'm Marcus."
"I'm Elinor." The girl stammered.
"I can't help asking," began Hugo. "But are you muggleborn?"
"Hugo!" Rose Weasley nudged Hugo sharply.

"Oh, yes. I am muggleborn." The girls voice got slightly shrill. "I don't know a thing about the wizarding world! I'm going to fail ALL my classes." She was crying openly now "Oh, I don't know what I'm going to DO!"

"Cheer up Elinor!" pleaded Marcus. "There are tons of muggleborns here!"
"Your in Ravenclaw and that's the cleverest house! You heard the Sorting Hat 'Ravenclaw's are overly clever, wit beyond measure is a mans greatest treasure!'" Quoted Hugo.
"There's nothing wrong with being muggleborn." Smiled Carl Loreto.
"Yeah," Scorpius Malfoy sidled up to them. "Filthy Mudblood!"

The Great Hall fell silent.

"Malfoy," Albus Potter stood up from the Gryffindor Table.
"Potter," Scorpius reached for his wand.

"Al…" began a seventh year Gryffindor, it was Domonique, Albus' cousin.
"Dom, he called that girl…"
"But Al… he's not worth-"
"She's only a first year!" cried Albus.
"Albus… look, wand dow-"

"PETRIFICUS TOTALUS! The spell was shot across the room by Scorpius. A couple of students skittered away from the blue jet of light.
"Children…" began Professor Longbottom.
"Protego!" cried Albus Potter "Expelliarmus!" Scorpius' wand flew through the air and landed neatly in Albus' hand.

"CHILDREN!" Boomed Headmistress McGonagall. The hall was silent.

"Potter, give me the wands."
Albus gave McGonagall Scorpius' wand.
"And yours,"
Albus reluctantly rolled it towards her.

"Potter that was a very strong hearted thing to do, fifteen points to Gryffindor. But you shouldn't of disarmed Mr Malfoy …"
"But Miss…"
"One detention Mr Potter and Mr Malfoy here can have a weeks detention. I think Miss Elinor Jones and her friends Marcus Malfoy, the two Weasley siblings and Mr Maddison can have five points each and let's give Miss Domonique Weasley five points too. Thank you. I would like Prefects to take first years up to the dormitories now whilst I have a talk with the upper school."

After the prefects emptied out, McGonagall asked if Scorpius Malfoy could be escorted to the dormitories with Professor Slughorn. Once he had gone, she took a deep breath and began to talk.

"Do not pretend I didn't sense the surprised feeling in the room when Mr Marcus Malfoy was placed in Ravenclaw. Now, it's quite obvious that young Marcus does not want to follow in his Grandfathers footsteps, he is just a regular student. Oh and please leave the Potters, Weasleys and Scamander's alone this year. They may have famous parents but that does not mean you have to follow them around like muggle paparazzi. Thank you, you may go."
