Fred Weasley didn't want to disappoint his family but he always ended up doing just that. It started before he was born. His parents thought that he would be a girl and they were so excited so when they ended up with a Fred instead of a Susan they were thoroughly disappointed. Then he was the troublesome kid. Though George could hold up on his own in the trouble making area Fred had always been the more drastic of the two.

When Fred started Hogwarts the hat had automatically placed him in Gryffindor but as soon as he sat down he made an enemy. Kerrilyn Sinclair, a daughter of someone who could have given his dad a significant promotion, immediately disliked him after he spilled pumpkin juice all over her new school clothes. Apparently his name was mentioned in a letter to her father and had cost his dad the promotion.

Fred had managed to cause so much trouble to his parents in the first sixteen years of his life he decided to tone it down in his sixth year at Hogwarts. If only he knew how hard this would be.


Elena Malfoy was getting ready for her third year at Hogwarts. She was a Slytherin, of course. But that didn't matter to her. She and her brother had more friends outside of their house then they did in. Her best friend Vivian Potter was a Gryffindor. Vivian is the sister of, the famous, Harry Potter but he doesn't know she exists. Harry hardly ever ventures out of the secure world of Weasleys and muggleborns that he lives in. It's easier for him to believe that there is only one right way to see things.
Vivian had been adopted when she was just three weeks old. Dumbledore thought it would be better if she grew up away from her family and the wizarding world but he didn't know who lived across the street. Actually the entire street was full of wizarding familys. The Malfoys, Zabinis, Abbotts, Patils and Moons were all in walking distance from her house. Most of the people in these five families were all very close to her. Most of the kids were in her brother's year though.
I love line breaks! I finally finished all the chapters in this story. Starting on a sequel! I'm so excited I will finally finish a story! Can any of you get tabs to work in your story? This is a prolougue in case you were wondering about the shortness.
