Alex Potter and the Revenge of Voldemolt's Followers
Chapter 1: A Day Before Hogwarts
I was sitting in my midnight blue room with posters of Quidditch players that I liked. I was staring out of my foggy window, thinking why I have to go to this school. That school is called Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry. Everyone of my family members has been to this magical school and always wanted to go, except for me. Alexandra Potter. Alex for short. My father is named Harry Potter and he's the most famous and richest wizard in the entire world. Weird, huh.
My big and weird brother, Albus, came into the room, which he was uninvited to.
"Hey little sis," Albus greeted.
"What did I tell you about calling me "little sis"!" I exclaimed. Albus gave that nickname since like, forever and it's annoying. Albus was, I mean is, my second eldest brother and he thinks that he knows everything. My dad and Albus look a ton like each other and sometimes I couldn't tell which was which, if Dad didn't have his glasses on. The only thing different about Albus and my dad was that Albus didn't have the lightning bolt scar on his forehead, like Dad. So that's Albus for you.
"Sorry, Alex," Albus apologized. "So what are you doing?"
I sighed. "What does it look like I'm doing?" I said. Albus can be really thick sometimes.
"Gosh, Alex. I'm just trying to have a friendly conversation with you," Albus said.
"Yeah, you're doing a great job of trying," I said saracasticly and rolling my eyes at the same time.
"Hahahahah. Did you know that you're a idiot that you don't want to go to Hogwarts," Albus said. Here we go again.
"Already got the memo, Albus!" I said. My entire family knew that I didn't want to go to Hogwarts but Albus is always pushing it. What a great brother.
"Gosh, Alex! Can't you be nice for once in your miserable life!" He said.
"Albus, why don't you go play with your Star Wars action figures or something and leave me alone," I said meaning it.
"Well, Alexandra," My teeth started to grit together. I hate being called Alexandra. It's too girly for me. That's why I stick with Alex. "I would but a certain someone stole all my action figures," Albus said looking at me while he spoke. He went a little to far.
"Get out of my room FatHead!" I exclaimed. Albus left the room and I shouted,"And I didn't steal your action figures! You can't prove it!" After I said that, I chuckled to myself. I totally stole his action figures. It took him four years to figure out in his tiny brain that I stole his action figures. Four Years! That's how stupid he is.
I was still packing everything that I would need for my year at Hogwarts. My uniform was already bought when we went to Diagon Alley. They were pitch black with a Hogwarts sign on the right. I put all my school books into my backpack that had stars on it. There was 8 different books that I had to buy. One for Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, and Defense Against the Dark Arts, my favorite. There was more but those were the only ones that i could remember.
Then my sister and bigger brother came into my room. Great, more unwanted guests.
''Hey, Alex," Lily greeted. James did the same.
"Hey Lily and James. What goes on?" I asked.
"Just doing the same thing that you're doing, packing for Hogwarts," Lily answered.
"Yeah, so what are you packing up besides clothes and school books and such," James asked. "Stupid question," I thought to myself.
"The things that I need for myself," I told him.
"Oh." James said. Now, James isn't all that bright but he's brighter than Albus, by a land slide. James was a trouble maker, and he was very good at it. When I was little, James taught me tons of pranks to play on Albus. It was so much fun. One time, we put snakes in Albus' room and when he came home from the library, Albus was jumping up and down like a bull trying to buck his rider when he saw the snakes. And then we threw a mouse and all the snakes tried to attack Albus because the dead mouse was on top of his head. Best moment! James and I were laughing our heads off! James is way cooler than Albus.
"So, Alex," Lily said. Now, Lily is the only sister I have and we're sort of close but not all that much. When Lily went to Hogwarts, she wrote me a million letters, talking about how wonderful Hogwarts was and about her social life, blah, blah, blah. I really didn't care all that much, but I had to be a good sister and said that I couldn't wait to go to Hogwarts. So basically over the years, I lied to me sister a ton. Not my fault. Anyways back to the story.
I looked over at her when she said my name.
"Are you excited to go to Hogwarts tomorrow?" Lily asked eagerly. Here we go again. Why does everybody ask me this question, when they already know the answer?
"Sort of. Not that much though," I told my sister.
"Oh, but you'll get used to it and then you'll love it. Like me!" Lily said. I couldn't believe that she compared me to her! Now, I didn't want to go to Hogwarts at all. I stuffed my face into my favorite pillow, it was with a surfer, surfing the waves. James saw how bad I felt. The only person besides Dad who understands me.
"Lily, maybe you shouldn't have compared yourself to Alex." he said. Go James!
"Why?"Lily said.
"Well, there's two reasons," James started. Lily nodded. Half of my head was out of the pillow so I could see what was going on.
"First reason. Alex never wanted to Hogwarts in the first place and it's not going to take her like two days to absolutely love it, like someone that I know," James said meaning to Lily. When she first got onto the train, I remember, she had a huge fit and started crying, saying that she didn't want to leave. Then two days later, we got a letter from Lily saying that she loves Hogwarts and that she's already made a ton of friends. Good for her (not really).
"Second reason. You shouldn't have compared you and Alex because you two are nothing alike." James finished and he was so true! Lily and I are nothing alike. Lily was a jumpy, girly girl and I. Well, lets say that I'm the complete opposite. I'm more of a tomboy and I like guy stuff, like Quidditch and Star Wars.
"DINNER!" Mum yelled. Yay! Dinner! Lily and James ran out of my room and down the stairs to the dinner table. What kids. This happened every night when dinner was ready. I was always the last one to come down the stairs. Why? Because I want to.
I stayed in my bedroom for a little bit. I saw Albus dash down stairs to dinner. He is such a pig when it comes to food. After a couple seconds of looking around my bedroom, I went down stairs to visit with my family. Well half of my family. My dad was always late for dinner because of his work.
I saw everyone at the table, getting their plates filled with food. For dinner, there was baked chicken and mashed potatoes.
"Hey Alex. You want some dinner?" Mum asked.
"Of course I do," i answered. My mum is Ginny Potter and she and Lily look some what alike.
"Ok then. Let's eat!" Mum said. I sat down and got myself a small plate of food. I wasn't all that hungry that night. Like every night. All of my siblings had huge plates of mashed potatoes and chicken. I'm guessing that they were excited to go to Hogwarts tomorrow. Or they were just hungry, like every night.
"Honey, why don't you get more food? Aren't you hungry?" Mum asked. She always wanted me to eat more because she thought that I'm to thin. It's not her problem that I don't eat a lot like 'some people'.
"No thanks. I'm good, Mom," I said confidently.
"Okay then," Mum said. "Let's dig in."
We ate in silence, since there's nothing to talk about. Of course I didn't touch my food. I was waiting for Dad to come home from work. I always wait and eat when he gets home. It's a routine that I've been doing forever.
"Aren't going to eat, Alex?" Lily asked. Apparently they didn't know my routine.
"I'm not hungry," I said. "I'll be in my room, packing, since I have to go to the stupid magic school tomorrow.
"Listen, Alex. Don't insult Hogwarts, okay! You haven't even been there, so there's no reason for you to bag on it!" Albus said.
"I don't care! I being made to go to Hogwarts! I never wanted to go to Hogwarts, not even when I was little!" I exclaimed, rising my voice.
"Well, no one cares if you want to go or not, Alexandra, you going to have to go! No matter what you want! You're not going to get it!" He went to far.
"You're such a BRAT!" I exclaimed, my voice was very raised. I was so mad at Albus.
"That's enough!" Mum commanded. "You guys need-" I didn't stay for the rest of her speech. I went upstairs to my bedroom, where no one could bother me.
I was in my room until 7 o'clock, when Dad came into my room.
"Hey, Ally," Dad said. That was his nickname for me and I always liked it.
"Hi, Daddy," I said. I know what you're thinking. A tough girl like me who doesn't want to go to Hogwarts and hates her brother, Albus, and likes Quidditch and plays tough, calls her father Daddy. Well, that's me. But I don't call my mum mummy. Now that's stupid. Anyways back to the main story here.
"So I heard that you and Albus had a fight."
I sighed. And I started telling Dad the story of what happened a few hours ago.
"Okay," Dad sighed. I just finished telling him what happened at dinner before he came home.
"Let's leave this experience behind us, and move on. What do you think?" Dad asked. I didn't even have to think twice. I just nodded.
"You want some dinner?"
"Yes please." Then Dad and I went down the stairs and into the kitchen and asked our house elf, Kreacher, to give us some food. I've always liked Kreacher and I was going to miss him when I went to Hogwarts tomorrow. Kreacher got our food and heated it up and we sat at the nook table, talking about how each other's day was. I was going to miss having dinner with Dad every night. I'm going to miss everythig.
