A.N./ Hello, hello and welcome to the fourth part of my saga! I thought Into The Darkness would be my last part to this saga, but I couldn't let go yet. The entire story hasn't been told yet and so here is the fourth part to my wonderful saga! Hope you all enjoy!

Beauty In The Eye Of The Beholder

Chapter 1

My mother is driving me absolutely insane, she is completely furious with me. She found me snooping again and I have been severely punished, no Quidditch out on our Quidditch Pitch for a whole two weeks! Thank Merlin for my daddy, or I would have been punished for a whole month. Which would have totally ruined me for Quidditch tryouts when I tryout when I return, with all of my cousins, to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Mum found out what I had been doing up here in the old attic all summer, and Mum found me in all of the old diaries. Yes all of their old diaries, and Mum found me writing it all down.

So naturally I am being treated totally unfair and I have until the end of the summer to finish writing down my family's history.

Obviously if you are reading this, than you have read the first three years of when my family found each other. I am only interrupting now because I am so furious at my mother!

I mean, I know why didn't she want me looking at this stuff. I knew my family had been through some tough times, but Merlin have we had our rough side of life.

I have loved going through all of the journals, diaries, and old pictures of my family. I have gotten to know my Great Aunt Arabella, my Great Uncle Sirius that I never got to meet, and my Great Grandfather Anthony that I also never got to meet. To learn and watch the videos of my Grandmother Lily and Grandfather James, is just remarkable. To know that they were the ones that helped my family triumph over Lord Voldemort and the Queen of the Death Eaters.

Enough about me though, I have got to finish writing this now.

So we shall start off not far from where I last left off, December 21st, 1998.

"I can't believe that today I became an auntie!" Bridget Potter screamed jumping up and down in the delivery waiting room as her elder brother Harry Potter walked out of the delivery room with a smile that extended from ear to ear.

"He is here," Harry said with a goofy smile that looked just like one that their father James had sported a little over eighteen years ago.

"Baby James!" Sadie Malfoy squealed and her husband Draco looked at his wife trying to figure if it was safe for her to be this excited, after all baby Lily would be with them soon.

"How big is he?" Arabella Black asked holding her two-year-old daughter, Roselyn's hand, as Roselyn was excited to know that her baby cousin was here.

"Jam! Jam!" Roselyn Black yelled as she sounded as excited as Bridget.

"Where Mummy? Where is Jam, Mummy?" Breeanna Malfoy asked fidgeting as she stood on the waiting room floor and began to pull at her mother's maternity dress.

Harry bent down to his little cousin and niece's level, "James is with is Mummy."

"Ginny!" Roselyn squealed.

"Where is Auntie Ginny?" Breeanna asked looking around.

"With baby James," Harry said smiling at the two year olds in front of him.

"When we can we see Jam and Auntie Ginny?"

"Soon," Harry assured the little girls.

"How big was is he?" Arabella asked again, now that the little girls and settled down.

"Eight pounds, ten ounces."

"Merlin!" Molly Weasley said as tears began to weal up in her eyes, "He is so big! I have to go owl Arthur!"

Harry nodded as his fatherly pride glowed, "Twenty one inches too!"

"Congrats Potter," Draco nodded.

"I am here, I am here!" Adora Potter said sliding into the Waiting Room, "I got here as soon as Ron contacted me! I was just too scared to apparate from Rome!"

Ron chuckled as he walked in behind his girlfriend and was surprised to see Harry in the waiting room, "Mate? I thought you would be in there with Ginny?"

"I was, James is here."

"Are you serious!" Adora asked eagerly.

"Yes," Harry said smiling from ear to ear.

"Congrats mate! Where is my sister and new nephew!"

"Ginny is resting and they were cleaning James up when I came out here to tell everyone that James was here."

"When do we get to see Jam!" Roselyn whined in her very sassy way that she always acted.

"Later honey," Arabella said and Roselyn began to whine.

"What about me!" Breeanna asked wondering if she got to see baby James before Roselyn.

"You have to wait too," Susan spoke up as she knew exactly what her little girl was trying to pull.

"No, come here." Harry threw his arms out as Roselyn and Breeanna climbed up in Harry's arms, "You two can see Baby James now. Only for a short visit, Auntie Ginny and the baby are really tired."

"Just a peak?" Roselyn asked as she batted those beautiful eyes of hers.

"Of course," Harry chuckled as he saw what might be a New Marauder.

Harry walked in the room that they had moved Ginny and Baby James into.

"There you are," Ginny smiled as she looked up from her sleeping newborn baby.

"You have visitors," Harry said as he walked in with Roselyn and Breeanna.

Ginny smiled from ear to ear, "My favorite girls."

The girls looked down to see the little baby in Ginny's arms, "He is little!" Roselyn gasped.

"Like baby dolls!" Breeanna's eyes got big as she looked back at her best friend.

"I want to hold!" Both girls pouted.

"Not now," Harry shook his head. "Ginny and James are to sleepy right now, when James gets older you can. Now I have to bring the two of you back to your Mummies."

"Where is everyone?" Ginny asked.

"Out in the waiting room."

"Tell them they can come in…"

Then the door opened and everyone barged in, which made both Ginny and Harry chuckle.

"Mummy!" Breeanna and Roselyn yelled as they both squirmed to get out of Harry's arms.

"Oh Ginny," Molly said as tears fell down her eyes. "We aren't going to stay long but we all wanted to get a look at Baby James." Molly walked up beside her daughter's bed to look down at her grandson, "Merlin he is beautiful." Molly turned to Harry, "He has the Potter hair."

"Poor kid," Ron joked and everyone began to laugh.

"Hey my kid will look better than yours if yours look anything like you," Harry laughed at Ron in which Ron's ears turned red.

Arabella stood beside Molly and brushed a stray black hair from James's soft face, "Wow. It is like turning back eighteen years," Arabella turned to Harry. "It is like looking at you all those years ago with Lily holding you."

Molly and Arabella waved goodbye to Harry and Ginny, so they could get some rest. First they both kissed Baby James's forehead first, and left with Roselyn in Arabella's arms. Both Molly and Arabella talked back and forth excitedly about the new baby.

Susan and Bridget got on one side of Ginny's bed and Adora got on the other, all three girls gasped at the same time.

"He does look just like you," Susan said smiling and looking up at her older brother.

"He is so tiny!" Bridget said smiling down at her nephew, "So beautiful!"

"Most beautiful baby I have ever seen," Ginny said smiling down at her first born son.

"I am so glad I rushed her as soon as Ron got a hold of me from Rome!" Adora said staring down at her now Great-Nephew. "He is so precious!"

"Let me see," Ron said walking over to stand beside Adora as Harry stood on the other side of the room. Harry would have plenty of time to stare at his son, he would sit back and listen to everyone compliment his son. Besides it was a much more beautiful view to see Ginny with her motherly glow as she held their son.

"Blimey!" Ron spoke and turned to his best mate, "He does look just like you."

"It is amazing," Bridget said smiling. "That you two made this little guy."

"Ug," Ron gagged. "Keep that stuff to yourself Bridget."

"Stuff it!" Adora slapped Ron upside his head.

There was a little scream and baby James was crying.

"Uh oh, what is wrong with him?" Ron asked looking horrified that James was crying so loudly.

"I think he is hungry," Ginny spoke up.

"Then feed him."

"Could you leave?"

"Why!" Ron asked outraged.

"I don't mind, but I figured that since you are so immature that you would freak out when I began to breastfeed James."

"Oh, you are right!" Ron said running to the door.

"We should all go," Adora spoke up. "You guys are going to want your rest and we want to leave the new little family alone."

"Yeah," Susan nodded. "Let the little family bond."

"We will stop by later on and see you," Bridget said kissing her best friend on the forehead as they were totally like sisters now. Bridget then leaned down and kissed James's forehead, "Love you little guy."

The door closed behind the rest of them and Harry sat down in the chair next to Ginny's bed as Ginny began to breastfeed their son.

Ginny looked up at her husband and he leaned over to kiss her lightly on her lips, "Thank you." Harry said after he leaned back from kissing his wife.

"For?"

"Bringing our beautiful son into the world, thank you for giving him to me."

"I wasn't the only one that helped create him," Ginny said smiling at Harry.

Harry nodded, "It is so weird that we…"

"I know," Ginny nodded. "I was thinking the same thing when you were out in the waiting room."

"I love you Ginny."

"I love you," Ginny said smiling at Harry as he was exhausted but yet still happy.

Two days later, Ginny and James Potter were released from St. Mungo's. Harry, Ginny, and James Flooed to the Black Manor and Ginny's eyes lit up when she arrived. There were balloons everywhere and a 'Welcome home Ginny and James!' sign. All of their friends and family were there too.

Ginny was given six weeks before she had to be back at Hogwarts. Ginny had Harry would be going back to the little cottage they had been renting in Hogsmeade later tonight, but for now everyone wanted to look at the baby and pass him around.

Ginny was still attending Hogwarts and this was her Seventh and final year. Headmistress McGonagall had granted Ginny the luxury of living with Harry in Hogsmeade, but she had to Floo to the Headmistress's office everyday at a specific time for school. In no way did Ginny do anything to mess up this system.

Professor McGonagall had asked Ginny if she would like to be Head Girl, as she had the best marks for the Seventh year girls. Ginny said that she was pleased but declined the position because she knew that as soon as James was born, that Ginny would be indeed busy with him.

Since Ginny had had James on December twenty-first, and since the sixth week fell after a Monday, Ginny and Professor McGonagall agreed that Ginny's first day back to school would be on February first, nineteen hundred and ninety-nine.

Who did the Head Girl title go to if Ginny Potter declined it? To Bridget Potter, of course.

Bridget, the usual prankster, took the title of Head Girl very seriously, which was a total surprise to everyone. Bridget was so honored that she had been named Head Girl and it gave her a connection to her mother and father that she had never felt before.

Oliver Wood was no longer teaching at Hogwarts, but was now in full training to be an Auror and was actually on the field. True, Auror school was usually long intensive years, but a good number of Aurors had died in the last battles against Lord Voldemort and his men. Madam Hooch was back from her secret mission, and was teaching again. Not only was she doing flying lessons and being a Quidditch referee, she had also taken up the Defense Against The Dark Arts job.

Arabella Black had left the post to be a stay at home Mummy and put all of her attention in her only child, and help out Susan and now new Mummy Ginny anytime they needed her.

Potions was now being taught by Draco Malfoy, in which this decision had surprised many. Draco had shown how loyal he had been to Albus Dumbledore and it was a big surprise to most people that he hadn't gone into Auror training with Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. At the end of classes, as long as Draco didn't have anyone in detention, he was able to Floo from McGonagall's office back to the home that Susan and he shared in Hogsmeade.

Adora was traveling the world teaching and being taught things on being a true Seer. Adora was teaching many and she was also learning things that she never knew before.

Ron was getting along as well to be expected with her not around as much as he would have liked. They both learned that long distance relationship was hard, but they were dealing better than anyone had expected.

Arthur Weasley was still Minister of Magic and in fact, he and Molly were doing so well that they had just had The Burrow fixed up a bit. Which now looked just remarkable.

During the summer after Harry's defeat over Lord Voldemort, everything had changed somewhat dramatically.

One night Bridget Potter had just seemed to have disappeared off of the face of the Earth, but in fact she had been with someone very significant to her…

"You are totally trashed Bridget," Oliver Wood said as he threw his arm around her as they were walking through the unknown territory in Muggle Las Vegas, Nevada.

"As are you, Oliver."

"So what if I am?"

Bridget rolled her eyes at him, only before he said his next comment to her.

"Let's get hitched."

"Huh?" Bridget who was already a bit tipsy, really fell to the ground this time.

Oliver bent down to pick her up, "Let's get married."

"Where?"

"Here."

"Now!"

"Why not?"

"Okay," Bridget slurred as they walked to the nearest Wedding Chapel.

The next day, Bridget woke up groaning.

"I fell like shit."

"Me too."

"What!" Bridget jumped and then she realized somehow she had ended up naked in bed with Oliver Wood, once again. "What are you doing here!"

Oliver blinked and he sat up with Bridget, "I don't know."

"Do you remember what happened last night?"

"No."

"I remember a chapel."

Bridget looked down at her left hand, but didn't see a Wedding band and then she looked at Oliver's hand, he was clear too. "We didn't get married did we?"

"I think we went to some kind of a fake wedding chapel, I mean those things can't be for real when there are all kinds of people stumbling around town plastered."

"Like we were last night?"

"Exactly."

As Bridget Potter sat in her Aunt Arabella's living room as everyone passed around baby James, she was thinking about that night once again. When in fact she should really be trying to finish up the homework up in her bedroom, as she had been given during the holidays.

Bridget hadn't heard from Oliver since that night, because after that night they got back to London and Oliver was gone doing Auror stuff from that day on. Bridget felt a little twinge in her chest and she felt tears starting to form, "No." She whispered to herself, "I will not do this again. Obviously we can't make it, and we really aren't meant to be. I was just wasting my time with him."

Bridget in fact felt so horrible that she excused herself going upstairs to her bedroom. As soon as she got upstairs and closed her bedroom door she then transformed herself into her animagus form, because as an animal you don't really feel all the emotions that a human feels. As Bridget was in her animagus form, she realized how tired she really was.

The war in Britain had really only settled down for a bit. Sure Voldemort was gone, but now there was another dark wizard…or should you say witch. Yes the Queen of the Death Eaters. There was also a King of the Death Eaters, but he just wasn't mentioned as much as she was.

Of course the remaining members of the Order, now run by Alastor Moody as he was a retired Auror, knew exactly who the King and Queen of the Death Eaters were. None other than Neville Longbottom and Autumn Lewis Crabbe-Longbottom. Yes, that is right Autumn Longbottom.

Neville and Autumn had married sometime after her father was murdered and began to rule over the rest of the remaining Death Eaters. Neither seemed to be as that big of a threat, or at least not near the threat that Voldemort had been but both were very strong dark wizard and witch.

What was happening to little Desi? Well what could you exactly expect from an almost two year old baby being exposed to all of that Dark Magic and hate, well she was just becoming a total monster.

Sadie Malfoy was being the best mother that she could be. Sadie had had many offers to work for the Department of Mysteries in the Charms department, to come up with new charms, obviously. She had declined because at the moment she wanted to be a housewife and stay at home mum. At the moment Susan had an almost two year old daughter and a little bundle of joy on her way too.

The little cottage that was left to Susan in her parents will, Draco and herself had fixed up this summer before Draco returned to Hogwarts to take over the Potions Master job. Draco had informed her a few days ago that the Transfiguration job had been filled in by an old teacher from Beauxbatons.

Susan smiled as she was looking around at how amazing the little cottage looked now that all the repairs were finished. Breeanna was in Susan's old bedroom, but they hadn't kept the room in the lilac with white bows and polka dots. Susan and Draco had turned Breeanna's room into what Catarina had always dreamed it to be.

There was pink everywhere with the white bows that had been Susan's from her old nursery. There was white furniture, but instead of a crib there was a toddler's bed.

The room closest to Susan and Draco's master bedroom was the nursery waiting to welcome baby Lily into. Susan had done this room in exactly the way her parents had had her nursery. There was a bit of a difference though. The walls were lilac but there were no polka dots, instead at the top of the walls and in the middle of the room there were lilies painted. The furniture was a cherry wood, the sheets were a lighter lilac color, but there were little white bows everywhere, with tons of stuffed animals.

All in all, their little family was doing pretty well off.

Adora was off living her dreams and was still with Ron, as he was trying to pursue his dreams at the same time.

Ginny and Harry were now happy parents of a bouncing baby boy, that totally made their lives worth living.

Bridget had made Head Girl, and yet she wasn't totally happy as Oliver Wood had lost touch with her.

Sadie and Draco were happy, in love, raising Breeanna, and awaiting the arrival of their new baby.

Arabella had taken all of her time and energy into raising her only daughter that looked so much like Sirius.

Being a Potter didn't really get any better than this.
