Chapter 1:

Lily Luna Potter was the youngest child of Harry and Ginny Potter and there only girl her having two older brothers James and Albus.

Her father was an auror while her mother used to play for the holy head harpies but quit after becoming pregnant with James she now wrote quidditch reports for the daily prophet Lily lived quite an ordinary life or as ordinary as it could be with a dad who defeated the darkest wizard of all time and a mother who became a very famous quidditch player.

As well as her mum, dad and brothers lily had an endless list of uncles, Aunts and cousins so where ever she went there was always family around her.

It was another day at the burrow and Molly Weasley was preparing for the arrival of the whole family and had been cooking all morning it was just turning three o'clock when James tumbled out of the fireplace flat on his face.

Immediately Molly bustled over to him and picked him up off the ground brushing him down at the same time but before she could ask if he was alright Albus came through the fireplace and fell flat as well and Harry shortly after doing the same thing as his boys.

At this point Molly had given up and went to keep an eye on the dinner. Harry gingerly got up and brushed himself down while Albus did the same.

"Are you ok daddy" Lily said as she stepped out of the fireplace with her mother and saw her father still on his knees.

"Yeah I'm fine Lily thank yo..." but didn't finish the sentence as Ron flooed over with Hugo and fell on top of him

"Oh Hugo" Hermione said as she flooed over with Rose and picking her little boy up checked for any injuries and hugged him tightly.

Ron looked up fondly at his wife and son before a muffled voice came from beneath him.

"Ron get off me!"

"Oh sorry mate" Ron said as he stood up and helped his best friend up as well Harry was just about to give Hermione a hug when he felt a tiny pull on his trousers looking down he saw Lily his little princess as he liked to call her.

Bending down he scooped her up and began to tickle her and then had to do the same to Hugo Hermione just smiled at them and helped Molly with the dinner.

Once everyone had arrived and sat down in the living room kids on the floor adults on chairs and Lily on Harry's lap Arthur stood up and got their attention.

"Now i have an announcement" he said in an ecstatic voice "for my hard work over the years the ministry has given me a special holiday for all off my family"

Immediately millions of questions were fired at him from Hermione asking if "the location was safe for the kids?" to Lily saying "Can my teddy come?" Arthur took this all inn his stride though and waited for everyone to calm down before he answered.

"I'm not exactly sure where it is but once we are there, there is no communication to the outside world so no owls as well there is only two trips one to get there and one to get back so you can't just step in a fireplace whenever you want and floo home if you forgot something "with that final word he sat down leaving them all stunned.

"So when do we leave and for how long" George said clapping his hands together with an eager look on his face.

"Well in a week's time and it will be for about a month" Arthur said happy that they were all going along with the plan.

So for the next week found the Potters and Weasley's packing for all types of weather because they were not entirely sure where they were going.

Harry was just making the last finishing touches to his own small bag on Saturday when he got an owl from the ministry to come straight away sighing he drooped what he was doing and grabbing his travelling cloak shouted to Ginny saying he was going out for a while.

A few hours later when Harry got home Ginny could see that he was frustrated because immediately he slumped down in his favourite armchair in the living room.

"What happened" she asked perching precariously on the chairs arm.

"Something come up i have to go away" he said sliding her into his lap.

"Is Ron going with you?" Ginny asked wondering how Hermione will react if he was.

"No, technically he's still on medical leave from the last mission we did" Ginny winched slightly remembering how because of a curse that hit Ron he had been in St Mungos for two weeks.

"When do you leave?" she asked dreading the worst because the holiday was only a day away.

"In a couple of days" Harry said before they both lapsed into silence.

The next day everyone and their luggage gathered at the burrow and said tearful goodbye's o Harry because none of them knew how grave the mission was but by the stern look on Harry's face meant it must be pretty bad.

The worst for saying goodbye was Lily who was a daddy's girl through and through Ginny spent 5 minutes trying to get her to let go of his hand but she would not budge in the end Ron picked her up by the waist tickling her at the same time so she had to let go.

What none of them knew though is Lily had a plan so standing in between James and Albus she made it look like her finger was touching the port key but was really hovering slightly above it.

Harry watched as his whole family including Teddy and Andromeda gathered around the port key looking into each of their faces he saw that most of them looked happy to be going away from work and the stress of life but one face he noticed was streaked with tears as she gazed at him.

Harry waved to her and then blinked and everyone was gone except one Lily stood there smiling to herself and her absolute brilliance before she saw the stern look on her father's face.

"Lily what do you think you are doing "Harry asked her as sternly as he could kneeling down to look in her eyes.

"I didn't want to leave you to be lonely daddy" she answered simply and that was all it took for Harrys heart to melt pick her up and apparate home with her.

In the morning Lily was having a great time usually James and Albus would be fighting by now making her mother shout and scream and them and her father to try pry them apart but now Harry was sat opposite her on the kitchen table reading through a leaflet he had while Lily munched away contentedly at her breakfast (sausage sandwich her favourite)

Sighing Harry put down the leaflet and looked across at his daughter who looked so happy and he knew when he said what he was about to say she wouldn't be happy for long.

"Lily"

"Yes daddy" she said in the voice that got Harry to do whatever she wanted.

"Lily tonight i have to go away on a mission..." Lily just stared at him her smile slowly fading "... and I'm going to be away for a week at the most so while I'm gone you have to go to this school"

"Hogwarts" Lily said immediately starting to smile again.

"No not Hogwarts a different school that's in diagon alley" Lily scrunched up her face in concentration trying to think of the place in diagon alley but she couldn't remember ever seeing one.

Harry didn't give her anymore details though on the place but after she had a tantrum helped her pack his old school trunk with everything she would need.

The next morning Lily was standing in diagon alley staring at a building that appeared as soon as her father took his wand out a said a spell she had never heard before.

A brass sign next to the door said 'Miss Minchin's Seminary for Girls' the building was 2 storeys high with an attic at the top by the looks of it.

Lily's first impression was of sadness because of the grey look and feel of the building. She was so caught up in her thoughts though that she didn't come out of them until the door opened and hurrying up the steps to be at her father's side.

A smiling plump woman opened the door and enthustiacally shook Harry's hand saying at the same time.

"Mr Potter am Miss Amelia Minchin it's a pleasure to met you please come in leading them inside Lily saw the grandeur of the place for the first time. There was a staircase leading up to corridors that went off in all directions and on either side of her huge sliding double doors leading to massive rooms.

"Auror Potter I'm Miss Minchin" a voice could be heard from above there on the staircase was a stern looking woman in dark blue robes.

Harry shook her hand as she got to the bottom of the stairs and saying at the same time.

"Hello this is my daughter Lily" he said and looking round made her come out from behind him. Lily unlike her brothers was very shy and was wary of strangers.

"Oh what a simply beautiful child" Miss Minchin said smiling down at Lily then standing up made them follow her as she gave them a tour of the school and telling them the rules at the same time.

Lily was half listening as she tagged on the end of the group keeping a firm grip on her father's hand eventually they got to a classroom where about 15 girls of Lily's age or younger were sitting behind desks in little rows.

All turned to stare as they walked into the room Miss Minchin stepped forward and gesturing to Lily said to the attentive girls.

"This is Lily Potter she will be joining the school today" at the mention of her last name they all started whispering and Lily heard snatches of "Potter like Harry Potter?" but none of their questions were answered though because Miss Minchin lead them out again.

"This will be the young ladies room now I'll leave you to say your goodbyes i know it's not long until your portkey leaves.

The room was much bigger than the one Lily had at home it was perfectly round and had 3 massive windows on one side the bed was a four poster with gold curtains hanging from it her dad's old trunk was sitting open at the bottom of the bed.

Harry sighed and sat down on one of the three window seats watching Lily take in the splendour of the room.

"Lily Princess look in that chair over there" he said and pointed to the chair just behind her turning round she found a beautiful doll dressed in Gryffindor robes.

"Her names Emily" Harry said as an afterthought.

"Thank you daddy" Lily said running over and hopping into his lap still clutching the doll.

"Princess..." he started but Lily interrupted him.

Daddy why do you call me Princess"

"Well all girls are Princesses didn't you know"

"Even Grandma" Lily said smiling up at him and snuggling into his chest.

"No I think your Grandmas a queen a fierce one at that" Lily giggled then went quiet again.

"Harry sat for as long as he could with her then reluctantly said goodbye and leaving her in her room made his way outside turning to look back he saw Lily sitting at the window waving weakly down at him.

"Goodbye Princess" he said then apparated away.
