So this is my first every Harry Potter story guys, I am really hoping this goes much better, I have a great idea for plots and stuff and as long as people like it, I want to make it a series. For the characters there will be 5 main characters, then supporting characters and stuff. The 5 main ones will be Albus Potter and Rose Weasley for mains, and then three other OC characters, in this chapter you will meet 4 of the 5 and the last one will be introduced in the next chapter.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any characters except for the OC's, those are mine, at least I hope they are.

DING! DING!
The doorbell rang throughout the store, dim from the little light that got into the small shop. Boxes upon boxes were all stacked up on each other. "Hello?" A small voice called out, "Is anyone there?"
A man walked out from behind some shelves, "You young sir look like you need a wand." The man smiled at the boy. "Might I ask your name?" The man looked at the boy in front of him, the boy was coming for his first wand like every other eleven year old would come into his shop. Just like every other one, he would exactly remember who he was and what wand he would take. This boy had short dark brown hair, he was tall for an eleven year old, something that really got his attention was the icy blue eye colour if the boy.
"J-J-Jordan, Jordan Sim." His voice was shaky as if he was almost a little bit nervous. "Are you Olivander?" He asked him as the Olivander in question smiled at him.
"That is what it says in the front of the shop sign now isn't it?" He smiled, "Now Mr. Sim looks see if we can find you a wand, hmmmm, let's try this. Unicorn, Larch." Handing Jordan a very attractive looking wand.
Looking at the wand and back at Olivander, "I don't feel anything? What am I supposed to do?" He asked confused as he started to wave his arms, suddenly the curtains started on fire. Jordan quickly put the wand back on the counter as Olivander put out the flames. "I don't think I want that one sir." He quickly said.
"That's quite alright, you won't be choosing your wand Mr. Sim, and the wand will be choosing you." Olivander gave him a sly smile as he looked at all the boxes pulling one out. "How about this one? Phoenix and Red Oak." Handing Jordan the red wand, surprisingly short.
"Still nothing sir." Jordan said shaking his head when Olivander sighed, then Olivander had a big smile on his face.
"Why don't you come back here and you just pick one of them. Let's see if that works." Jordan nodded his head and walked behind the counter. "Now close your eyes and walk. You'll know when to stop." He gave Jordan a little push in the right direction.
Jordan walked forward having his eyes closed and his hands out on the shelves to guide him through the maze of wands, suddenly he heard something, a low humming sound. He followed the noise, Olivander watched as the boy was walking around the store, it almost seemed like he had found something. He looked over when the boy had stopped. Jordan had his eyes opened and staring at a box hearing the humming getting louder as he reached out and grabbed the box, bringing it over to where Olivander was. "Ahhh, what do you have here? 13 1/4 inches. Dragon core. Laurel wood. Ah! Surprisingly swishy." Was inspecting the wand as he handed it down to Jordan. Jordan felt a wave of heat hit him as the wand started producing little sparks at the end. "I think we have found you a wand Mr. Sim." Olivander smiled.

Jordan was looking lost as he was walking around Kings Cross station not having any clue of where he was going. His mother and brother were behind him also trying to figure it out. "Mum where did it say that we should be going?" He was starting to get impatient, the letter he got wasn't very detailed saying they had to get to platform 9 3/4, and when they asked anyone about it they all laughed and looked at them like they were crazy. Both his mom and brother weren't magical, his dad was never around. His brother Matt wasn't magical either but he also had a different father then Jordan as well, so he liked to think that is why.
"Maybe we should head to platform 9. Then at the 3/4 mark we look around for other magical people?" Just because Matt wasn't magical didn't mean he wasn't willing to help as much as possible. They decided to follow the elder brother's idea. They arrived at platform 9 when they were still stumped on where to go when they were about to give up, they saw another family with a boy that looked about Jordan's age. "Come on dad! We are going to be late! I don't want to be late for the Hogwarts Express!" the boy yelled out at his parents and little sister. Jordan and his brother looked at each other, "Follow them." They both said at the same time as they hurried towards the voices leaving behind their mom who was looking around. "Boys! Wait!" She yelled at she chased after her two sons.
They stopped behind them as they watched the young boy run straight at one of the pillars, Jordan looked away thinking he was about to crash as his brother looked on in excitement of the boy about to crash, when the crash didn't occur Jordan looked back to see the boy, just gone, simply vanished. He looked over at his brother and mom who looked like they couldn't believe what they just saw. The parents of the boy looked back with worried expression on their face but then they noticed all of Jordan's stuff, "You must be a muggle born." The man said with a smile on his face as he walked over to the three gob smacked people. "Look, it's a magical barrier. Just run at it and you'll go right through to the other side. I promise." He smiled at them.
Jordan looked at his mom and brother, "Well I just found out there is a magical school, and a magical alley with magical everything. So this really can't surprise me." His mom said as she grabbed one handle of the trolley, his brother grabbed the other side. "We will do this together okay?" His brother told him with a reassuring smile, "On the count of 3?" Jordan nodded silently as he stared at the brick pillar in front of him.

With the last count the three of them started to run at the wall, just before they were about to hit Jordan closed his eyes as they ran right through the pillar.
Jordan opened his eyes when he heard a whistle pierce the air. He looked around in amazement as he saw everything that was around. The big red and black train, other students running around saying goodbye to their parents. He felt a hand on his shoulder, he looked back just to see the man that helped them find the express.
"Welcome to your new life." He smiled at him and then shook his mom's hand and then his brothers. "My name is Clay, Clay Kardash. This is my wife Crystal. Our youngest daughter Desiree. Our son Christian should be around here somewhere, he's your age." He introduced himself and his family.
Jordan nodded his head as his mother and brother talked to the family when a boy came running up to them. "Mum! Dad! Come on I need to find a compartment!" The boy exclaimed as he was basically jumping up and down in excitement. Jordan recognized the boy as Christian, the one Clay described earlier.
Clay laughed at his son's excitement, "Christian this is Jordan, and he's a muggle born." He told him as Christian looked over at Jordan and smiled, then reached out his hand. Jordan reached back and shook his hand. "Come on let's get you boys settled in on the train." Clay said putting a hand on both Jordan and Christian's shoulders leading them towards the train.

"Alright my boy, you be good. Write every day. That's why we got you an owl. Be good, have fun and we want to hear all about it!" Jordan's mom said as she hugged her son with tears starting to well up in her eyes. She gave him a kiss on the cheek, then his brother hugged him. "Little brother I am more jealous of you now more than ever. You look like you are about to have the time of your life." Matt said as he hugged his brother then let him go.
"But what if I don't get along with all the magical kids and don't do it as well of them? What if they all make fun of me?" Jordan started to worry as he looked at his family.
"I'm sure you will make lots of friends. Everything will work out in the end. I promise." Matt said as he held out his pinky. A pinky promise in the Sim family was bigger than anything. His mom also held out her pinky, Jordan reached out and hooked his pinky around both of theirs and they all squeezed together.
"Now get on the train. You don't want to miss it." His mom pushed him off towards the direction of the train where Christian was waiting for him.
"You ready to start the best chapter of our life!" Christian smiled happily as they both looked at each other than waved to their families.

Jordan and Christian both sat down in an empty compartment across from each other, they both looked around in amazement at everything that was around them. Jordan looked at Christian for a couple seconds. He was a smaller kid, he wasn't as tall as Jordan but he wasn't short either. He was kind of a scrawny kid as well. He had wavy black hair and dark brown eyes.
"I have a question. What is a muggle born? Or a muggle even?" He asked as Christian looked back at him.
"It means people who don't do magic or can't do magic." Christian answered him as Jordan nodded his head. "Where was your dad? I saw your mum and brother but your dad wasn't there?" Christian asked him.
Jordan looked at his feet, "My dad ran off before I was born, I have no idea who he is or where he is at anymore." Jordan looked back at his new friend who just had a saddened look on his face.
"I'm sorry Jordan. If I would have known, I wouldn't have said anything." Jordan gave him a reassuring smile.
"It's okay. You didn't know. I'm not going to hold you to any of that." Jordan told him as Christian smiled back. "So what do you think Hogwarts is going to be like?" He asked him wanting to know all of the answers to his questions about everything. It was all so new and fascinating to him.
Before Christian could answer, a boy with black hair and piercing green eyes opened the compartment. "Do you guys mind if we join you?" When he said we Jordan looked behind him to see a smaller girl with red hair and brown eyes, who already had her robes on. "Everywhere else is full and my brother is with all of his friends." He looked at the two boys.
Jordan smiled at the potential to make two new friends. "Yes of course, please come in." The boy and the girl both smiled appreciatively at Jordan as they sat down, the boy sat down beside Jordan and the girl, sat beside Christian. Christian hadn't said a word as he just looked at the boy with amazement. "So who are you two?" Jordan asked as he looked at the two of them back and forth.
"Oh I am Al-" Before he could finish he was cut off by Christian.
"Albus Potter, Harry Potter's youngest boy." Christian looked absolutely amazed by the boy, Jordan simply didn't have a clue what was so special about him but he figured he must be someone special.
"Well, I am Rose Weasley," The girl spoke up for the first time. Jordan reached out his hand and shook both of their hands.
"Hello Albus, Rose. I'm Jordan Sim, and this is Christian Kardash." Jordan introduced the two of them to their new found guests. Christian was frozen still not knowing what to say. "Hey Christian are you okay? Hello?" Jordan started waving his hand in front of his face trying to get his friends attention back. His friend finally snapped out of his trance, he looked at the two new comers with an apologetic look on his face.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to act like a fool. I knew I would be in the same year as a Potter child but I didn't realize I would be sitting right in front of one. It caught me off guard." He looked almost disappointed in himself as Albus laughed.
"It's okay Christian, it happens a lot. Just try to remember that I didn't do anything. It was all my father who did it all. Not me." He put a hand on Christians shoulder and gave him a reassuring smile that he wasn't upset with what Christian had said to him. Christian nodded his head at him, "Now good, who wants something from the trolley?" He asked them as he heard the trolley lady coming by.
Jordan shook his head, "I'll be okay, I don't need anything. I couldn't have you pay for anything Albus." Jordan said as he looked on at everything that was on the trolley.
"There is no point in saying no Jordan, once Al has an idea he will go through with it. He likes to treat his friends." Rosie told him as she pulled out a packet Drooballs.
"Did you not say you were from the muggle world Jordan?" Albus asked him as Jordan shook his head a silent yes, still dumb founded by all the candy. "Then we will take four of everything." Albus smiled at the lady as he handed her his galleons. "Now you get to try at least one of everything, you want the real experience of the wizarding world candy."

Jordan's stomach rumbled as he slowly moaned from all the candy that he had eaten, they had everything imaginable. Pumpkin pastries, Drooballs, Licorice wands, Chocolate Frogs, Bertie Botts every flavor beans. Everything. He looked around him and noticed everyone else was not doing much better either.
They all had looked up at each other, all started laughing at how ridiculous everyone had looked. Jordan wiped the almost tears coming out of his eyes as he sat up, looking down at one of the chocolate frog boxes, "Hey someone forgot to take out their card." He took it out, looking at the picture then looking at Albus, then back to the card and back to Albus. "Wow Al, you look almost identical to your father." He said in amazement.
"Yeah you would be surprised how much I hear that." Albus said looking out the window.
"So your dad really is the savior of the wizarding world. That's amazing." He looked astonished at the card.
"Yeah but that isn't me either, I'm here to start my own adventure and become my own person. Not to be whom everyone wants me to be. I am here to be Albus Potter. Not Albus Potter son of Harry Potter." He said in a matter of factly voice.
Rose had gotten up looking at the three, "Well you guys have better get your robes on, we look like we are to be arriving soon. Then we can get sorted and started school!" Rose said very excitedly, seeing the grounds coming into view.
Jordan looked at her confused, "Sorted?" He didn't know what to think.
"It's not anything to be scared of mate, all that it does it sort us into houses, where we sleep and represent almost. There is Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin. I am sure they will explain it more once we actually get there though." Christian told him as he reached up into his trunk to pull out his robes.
Jordan got up and did the same, he didn't want to be sorted into different houses then the friends he made. What would happen if they did? Would they still be friends? A million questions started running through the boys mind.
