The Characters Of Harry Potter All Get Together To Read Harry Potter 'Cause Harry Potter Is Awesome.
Hello. This chapter was written by my friend, Rach and we are writing this together so thats wy it probably doesn't make that much sense in the AN on my account so sorry about that .
Okay, how are you? I'm good. Now, pleasantries out the way I'd like to introduce the story. Basically its another reads the Harry Potter books change the past thing but this one has loads of characters so have fun keeping track let me know if there's any confusion, I can post a list if you want.
Me and my friend Rachael, whose pen-name I cant think of right now cos its really random, are writing this together. I decided I wanted to do it and she wanted to help so here we are. We'll write a chapter each and all chapters will be posted on both accounts.
This first chapter is going to be quite long winded so bare with us please because we hope to make this the best we can, criticism is welcome but could you please put who the reviews are to at the beginning so we can just send them on to each other. Odd numbered chapters will be Rachael, and even numbered chapters will be me. Rach will also be adding a quote or something every chapter, mostly from music no doubt but the first one isn't, it is however something you might recognise.
Rachael would like to point out that she tried to post this last week while she was off school but she realised that we didn't think of a title for It and she was just sat there thinking, okay then, mega flaw in the plan. So, he-
Me: Rach?
Rach: Yeah?
Me: Would you get on with the story, your boring the readers.
Rach: What readers?
Me: Just because you don't see them.
Rach: I should hope you can't see them either, stalker!
J.: Girls if you wish to borrow the characters then I suggest you get on with it.
Rach: Certainly. We do not, though we wish to, own Harry Potter. Shame really.
Dearest Children,
Since we have been abroad we have missed you all so much. Certain events have compelled us to extend our travels. One day, where you're older, you will learn all about the people we've befriended, and the dangers we have faced.
At times the world can seem an unfriendly and sinister place, but believe us when we say there is much more good in it than bad. All you have to do is look hard enough. And what might seem to be a series of unfortunate events, may, in-fact, be the first steps of a journey.
We hope to have you back in our arms soon darlings, but in case this letter arrives before our return, know that we love you. It fills us with pride to know that no matter what happens in this life, that you three will take care of each other with kindness, and bravery, and selflessness as you always have.
And remember one thing my darlings and never forget it - that no matter where we are, know that as long as you have each other, you have your family, and you are home.
Your loving parents.
A Series of Unfortunate Events, (The film), The Letter That Never Came.
"Hermione, Ron Gin-ow, Guys get down to the kitchen." Harry called in frustration, shifting Teddy on his hip after walking into the banister and nearly dropping him.
Harry entered the kitchen in grimauld place and sat at the table, waiting as everyone sat around him.
"What's wrong Harry?" Draco asked sitting beside him.
"I got a letter this morning and I think you should hear it."
"Why, what does it say?" Neville asked from across the table.
"It says," Harry started pulling a letter from his pocket,
"Dear Mr Potter,
Please gather your friends and read this aloud.
This letter will send you to a bubble in time. In the bubble is a room and in the room are 7 books that I wish you all to read together, once everyone is there. I shall be there when you arrive to explain, then I will leave.
Have fun,
A Friend From The Future."
A second later there was a quite 'pop' and the room began spinning. It wasn't until a few minutes after the spinning stopped that everyone realised that they weren't at home any more. The room they were in now was a mix between the four common rooms. It had a circle of beanbags, chairs and couches for everyone to sit on and a large circular table in the middle. On the table, there were the 7 books, spread out in a line.
Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
"I should have known the books were about you, why else would we be here." Draco muttered to Harry, shoving him playfully.
"Yeah, Yeah Draco."
"I wonder what Hufflepuff will be here." Hermione mused out loud gesturing to the yellow in the decoration.
"A young Alice Campbell (A.N. I didn't know her maiden name and this was the first thing that popped into my head. Sorry.) will be joining us and she is a Hufflepuff." A familiar stern voice said emerging from the shadows.
"My mum will be here?" Neville inquired, shocked.
"Yes Mr Longbottom, she will be. Now I'll make this quick so I can leave again. Everyone else will be here soon and I must insist that you keep them calm and safe Potter. This bubble allows you to change the future of your parents in an alternate universe while your present remains untouched. To do this we will read about Harry's school years, he certainly knows more about what goes on than most teachers, never mind students. You can't tell them anything important to the plot unless it is absolutely necessary. I must leave now before anyone else comes, good luck, and Harry?"
"Yes professor?" Harry replied, looking up from the books.
"Make sure Severus knows that you understand and keep older Sirius calm." She looked almost pleading as she disappeared with another quiet 'pop'.
"Okay then." Harry said slowly sitting on a couch with Teddy.
"I'm with ya there." Ron said sitting beside Luna and Hermione.
There was another quiet 'pop' and twelve people arrived in a huddle on the floor. They watched in amusement as someone in the middle of the group fell, taking everyone down with them.
Harry, still chuckling, stood and walked towards the group, shifting Teddy to his hip. He helped them up in turn and realised what McGonagall meant when she told him to keep them calm, Peter.
"You all need to sit down before everyone else arrives and you fall over again." Harry called to the group at large.
After scrambling up they all sat down in the circle except Bellatrix Lestrange, of course.
"Bellatrix just sit down, for Merlin's sake. It was a simple instruction. I figured you'd be used to those by now." She glared at him for a moment before she sat down, causing people to chuckle again.
"Wow, you actually made my cousin listen." Sirius said in awed shock.
"Honestly Harry, that was pretty cool." A new but completely familiar voice said behind him.
Harry whipped around and hugged him tightly,"Siri."
"Calm down Harry, you'll crush Teddy." Hermione scolded him, also hugging Sirius.
"Sorry Ted." Harry apologised, conjuring his favourite wolf toy and giving it to him.
"I feel a strange misguided need to ask," Another familiar, calm voice interrupted, "the child isn't yours, is he cub?"
"Of course not Remy," Harry said joyously, "not even I'd get away with that."
"Of course not Harry." Neville said sarcastically at the same time as a new voice said "Never underestimate the Harry Potter powers."
"Hey Gred, Forge." Harry greeted quickly before calling out to the group "Can everyone please sit down."
After a few minutes everyone, including Harry, had sat down.
"Great, now Minnie asked me to explain but first I think we should introduce ourselves. So say your name and a nickname in case there are two of you like Sirius and Sirius, Remus and Remus and so on." Harry finished glancing around the room.
"I'll start, Lily Evans."
"Severus Snape or Sev."
"Remus Lupin or Moony, never Remy." He finished glaring at younger Sirius.
"Sirius Black or Padfoot, never Siri." He finished, glaring back at the smirking werewolf.
"James Potter or Prongs."
"Peter Pettigrew or Wormtail."
"Alice Campbell or Ali."
"Frank Longbottom."
"Bellatrix Black."
"I much prefer calling you Bella, can I?" Harry asked, smirking at her playfully.
"No you can't." She growled, glaring at him.
"Great I will then."
"Narcissa Malfoy, Cissa or Cissy."
"See she doesn't mind nicknames, she's nice." Harry announced looking at the sisters seriously.
"Lucius Malfoy."
"Regulus Black."
"Can I call you Reg?" Harry asked watching him carefully as he watched his brother.
"Whatever Potter." Regulus dismissed waving his hand in his direction while continuing his staring contest.
"By the way," Harry cut In before the next person could speak, "could you call the Potters by their first name or given nickname please because it will get so confusing otherwise. There are five of us."
There was a murmer of consent and the circle continued.
"Luna Lovegood."
"Neville Longbottom or Nev." There were a few gasps as Neville said his name Harry groaned, "Merlin if you gasp at every surname I will put silencing charms on you.
"Ginny Weasley or Gin."
"Ron Weasley."
"Hermione Granger.
"Gred and Forge Weasley." The twins announced together.
"Sirius Black, preferably no Siri, only pup can call me that."
"Remus Lupin, preferably no Remy, only cub can call me that."
"Nymphadora Tonks and I will gladly get Ginny to hex you," she grinned, pausing for effect and seeing people shiver, "should you decide to call me by my first name, I prefers Tonks or Dora.
"Harry Potter, Prongslet, Pup and Cub respectively. preferably not the-boy-who-lived, the chosen one, the-boy-who-conquered or any of my many other stupid crappy names, Draco!" He paused looking pointedly at the smirking blond beside him before lifting Teddy and adding. "My godson Teddy who's surname you will have to wait for I'm afraid."
"Draco Malfoy or Dray as Ry likes to call me, oh and look Harry, my introduction took less than three minutes." Draco teased him smirking.
"At least i'm loved." Harry retorted pulling tongues at him.
"Moving on boys." Hermione snapped, glaring at them and making Draco cower.
"Severus Snape."
"Albus Dumbldore."
"James Sirius Potter or Jay." Said a boy that looked exactly like Harry but with Ginny's eyes.
"Lily Luna Potter or Lils." Said the next one, who looked the opposite, exactly like Ginny but with Harry's eyes.
"Albus Severus Potter," Snape gasped at his middle name and turned to look at Harry with a shocked and incredulous look.
"I understand why you did what you did and have a surprising amount of respect for you, despite everything else, no-body could have done what you did." Harry said simply, shrugging, "I also feel the need to apologise for some of the thoughts coming your way in these books, we don't like you much."
"You can all call me Al, by the way." The young Potter who looked exactly like his father, eyes and all, added watching the group carefully.
"Scorpius Malfoy or Scorp."
"Rose Weasley."
"Hugo Weasley."
"Victoire Weasley, Vic or Vicki."
"Teddy but I don't need a nickname, I'd imaging it'd be hard to have a conversation with a boy 16 months old, even if it's me."
"Okay then now for the explanation." Harry took over happily, "We are going to read about our seven years of Hogwarts, for the people in the future so they can learn from mistakes and, people from the past can hopefully change their future. The changes you make wont effect our present though, which is a real damn shame but that's besides the point. I have a few pre book warnings so you can prepare yourself just in-case. Dumbledore, we find out all about your past in the seventh book," Albus closed his eyes and bowed his head slightly so Harry moved on, "Moony we also find out about your furry little problem in the third and no-one from the future cares so don't start." Remus and Sirius chuckled at the affronted look on Moony's face before Harry moved on, "I don't think there's anything else so Bellatrix your starting here you go." She finished throwing the book to Bella who was too shocked to catch it and got hit in the face, causing everyone, particularly Neville to laugh.
Once everyone calmed down, and she had stopped glaring, she opened the book and began.
A.N (Rachael!!) - I hope thats everyone, it should be. Sorry it took so long guys but our ideas kept switching around, I ended up just rewriting the entire chapter. Sorry if you thought it was a little too much with the amount of characters but one or both of us felt that everyone there could benefit from the experience and trust me when I say we cut it down a lot.
Rachael's pen name is....... ImAParrotDontEatMe
Its really random isn't it!!! Lol. Anyway if you cant find it, she is on my favourite authors list so you can go onto her profile from there. Thanks
Sarah.
