Author's Note: The first chapter has been changed partially because I had extreme writer's block and did not know where to go with the story. I hope you enjoy this version better than the earlier one.

Many things in 2019 would trigger future events for the students of Hogwarts. And eventually our story will take place but let in order to understand the story we must start at the beginning of it all. And that began in the first term of the sixth years, or to be more specific it began at the Welcoming Feast of 2019, when something went missing.

Chapter 1

Or: Train Rides

Platform 93/4 was full of the usual hustle and bustle as it always was on the 1st of September.

Student of different ages mixed in the crowed. Just the usual. Each student had at least a small reason to be scared at the beginning of the year.

The sight of the white steam made Amy Penrose smile with excitement. It was now the beginning of her sixth year at Hogwarts and she was determined to make it the one of the best years of her life. Her fifth year had been quite a disappointment the only highlight being that Adam Fletcher (no relation to Mundungus Fletcher, mind you) had kissed her and had asked her out to Hogsmeade several times. Just the thought of kiss made her fair skin bright red.

After saying goodbye to her parents, giving them each a kiss on the cheek and embracing them. She hurriedly climbed onto the train as it let out a whistle dragging her trunk along behind her. As she stepped on the train she caught a glimpse of the Potter-Weasley family standing only a small distance away. She heaved it into an empty compartment and shut the door.

James Sirius Potter, much like the many other Hogwarts students, was determined make his sixth year better than the last, his plan was to win the Quidditch Cup for Gryffindor this year, as he had been appointed captain of the team last year. James had grown to look much like most of the men in the Potter family -especially like his namesake- untidy jet black hair-cut short and with a natural quiff at the front, glasses and a sharp face, his eyes were brown-like his mother's with a few, barely visible, slight flecks of green like his father's. Or as Moira Reekes liked to describe him; 'hotter than a bloody Chinese Fireball'.

"I hope we don't get as many behavioral warning letters as we did last year," James's father, Harry, said to his mother who was fixing Lily's ginger hair. "Don't worry, I'll make sure I don't get found out. But I can't really let some else the credit on my genius ideas," James said which made his father give him a look. "What?" His father ruffled his already-messy hair. His mother gave him a kiss on his forehead. While the rest of the Potter children said their goodbyes, James spotted through the crowd two brunettes, his cousins and best friends, who were chatting with Quintus Wildsmith, a friend of theirs from Ravenclaw. "Fred! Roxy! Quinn!" James shouted, grinning at the three as he ran over to them.

Amy sat alone in her compartment. One of her best friends, Ella Withey, who usually accompanied her on the journey to Hogwarts, had gotten appendicitis and was to miss the first 3-4 weeks of school. Her other best friend, Peri Bobbin usually travelled to Hogsmeade using the Floo Network. So she would be alone in a compartment this time. It didn't bother her that much. It was nice if it was quiet sometimes. Deciding to pass time, Amy pulled out 'Quintessence: A Quest' and began reading through it.

Meanwhile, Ava Price could have sworn she saw the dashing James Potter climb into this carriage. Her brown eyes scanned the students getting into compartments but none of them were James. Her eyes dropped slightly in disappointment. They immediately shot back up at the familiar laugh of James Sirius Potter. Ava pushed a lock of hair behind her ear and turned around to face him, a smile on her face.

Albus watched his older brother walk off with his friends and Lily chatted away with Hugo. A hand touched his shoulder and he turned around. "Hey Al," the blonde boy said. "Hey Scor, where's Rose?" he asked his friend Scorpius Malfoy. At the mention of her name Rose popped out of the crowd and greeted her cousin and friend with a smile "Hurry up! The train's about to leave." Everyone boarded the train and the Hogwarts Express let out a final whistle before the train started with a screech and the students were off to Hogwarts.

Amy immediately looked out the window to wave as she shouted to her parents, "Bye! I'll see you at Christmas!"

The scene outside the train had changed greatly, now the only thing that could be seen was the green of the mountains and the white of the cloudy sky with the occasional grey of water.

Amy hadn't been interrupted since the journey started. She was actually surprised that no young couples had come into the compartment hoping to find an empty compartment to snog in. Amy wondered where Adam was right now. She had hoped he'd come looking for her but the door hadn't opened since she had entered.

Oh, no. What if he met a girl who's prettier, smarter, funnier, friendlier, more talented and is better than me in every way.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I am ruining this for myself. Adam isn't anything like that.

Plus Peri will probably smack me if I ruin this.

She could just imagine her hot-headed perfectionist friend yelling at her for ruining their chance for having a triple date. "Amy! How could you?! We all had finally had boyfriends at the same time and you went and bloody ruined it by breaking up with Adam fucking Fletcher before your first official date! You know how much I've always wanted all of us to go out without you being a fifth wheel!" she could just imagine her redheaded friend saying before attempting to throw a book at Amy but failing incredibly due to her terrible aiming skills.

Amy rested her head on the table and before she realised she had drifted off to sleep.

James looked at Ava, who was now sitting opposite him and debating with Roxanne about which was the better band, the Snitches or Catchlove. James himself was also having a debate with himself, he couldn't decide if he wanted to snog Ava Price or really snog Ava Price. All her mixed messages made his head hurt, it was as though a rogue bludger had hit him square in the face. One moment she'd be into him and the next she'd act as though he didn't even exist. He turned his gaze to Fred who was dead asleep with drool dripping onto his shirt sleeve.

James was bored. Or maybe he was just hungry.

He was about to get up when he noticed Ava glance at him. She is definitely sending me mixed message. Girls are so confusing. "I'll be back in a bit," he said to Roxanne. "Don't go hexing anyone without me," Roxanne said jokingly to which James replied with a laugh.

Rose was in the middle of telling the dead bored Albus and Scorpius about how she memorized the whole of 'Extreme Incantations' by Violeta Stitch when James entered their compartment to check on them. After he had left, Theodore Pinner, a 5th year Hufflepuff, began, "Oi, did you guys here about Lynette Fletcher and her boyfriend, Kyle Bones, breaking up? Apparently she caught Lisa Nickleton and him-"

"Shagging?" Scorpius interrupted, suddenly interested.

"No, what I was going to say was snogging. At one of Condrum's Party's," Theo corrected.

"Poor Lynette," Rose said sadly, "She must have been furious. You know, Lisa being one of her friends and all."

Scorpius had lost interested again. And he was now petting his small white ferret, Peter, who was sleeping quietly on his lap.

James checked on Lily who was still blabbing on to Hugo and a few more of their friends about how she was excited to be going back to Hogwarts and how she was going to join the Gryffindor Team.

"Everyone's fine," he said to himself before heading back to the compartment. There were several students moving around thus the space between the compartment and him was difficult to pass. So instead of wasting time, James opened the door of what he thought was an empty compartment and sat down. He hadn't noticed the sleeping figure leaning on the table. The person was clearly female and James made a guess of who it was, Amy Penrose. She was rather plain and quiet.

Easy on the eyes.

But speaking of eyes, her almost strangely big blue eyes opened and were looking straight at James in extreme confusion.

James felt awkward as they stared blankly at each other. Breaking the silence, "The hallway was full," James explained. Amy continued looking at him blankly for a few seconds more before she spoke. She shook her head. "Oh right," Amy said embarrassed for no reason, she hid her face in her arms and tried to fall back asleep.

Amy felt embarrassed around boys in general. That was why she was always a third or fifth wheel. In her opinion it was hard enough keeping eye contact with Adam Fletcher, let alone kissing him.

James smirked.

I often have that effect on women, he thought with a smirk.

He stretched out on the seat and took his glasses off. James was quite the ladies' man, not only because of his dad or his money. But because he was good-looking, Gryffindor Quidditch Captain, popular, smart and absolutely and completely irresistible. There was just something about him that made girls blush bright red.

But this case didn't apply to Amy. There was another reason for her blush. She hadn't meant to but the image just suddenly popped into her mind. The kiss. And she could feel a tingling sensation in her ears. And she could tell her ears now matched her face.

The younger Potter boy smiled at his cousin and his friend, Rose and Scorpius. They were deep in conversation, well, with Rose doing 90% of the talking and Scorpius just listening intently. He wondered how long it would take. It was like an excruciatingly long game of Wizard's Chess. He was sure Scorpius would be the first to make a move. Rose was too oblivious to anything related to her and romance. If anyone looked inside her head they would probably find it filled with essays, books, potion recipes, spells and homework. Mostly homework. He knew that she got her studiousness from her mother, Albus's aunt, Hermione. Albus turned away from the pair and looked outside, thinking back to the day he first got on the Hogwarts express. He had been absolutely nervous because he didn't want to be put in Slytherin house but after his father spoken a few wise words his nerves had calmed and was actually glad to be put in Slytherin. He had befriended Scorpius Malfoy when he had been sorted and had introduced him to Rose. Albus was no love expert but he knew those two were good for each other, despite what Uncle Ron said, of course.

Amy shifted uncomfortably as she listened to James's quiet snores. She sat up straight and looked at the compartment door. Nobody was coming. She turned her towards the window and saw the familiar figure of a large castle.

We'll be at Hogwarts soon.
