Au: I don't own Harry potter out the sorting s hats song which is located on page 117 & 118 of HPATSS. Most of the lessons come straight out of Sorcerer's Stone. I did make up some characters.
"Summary: Albus Severus Potter's first year at Hogwarts. R&R please
Albus Potter turned to his cousin Rose Weasley and said " This is going to be awesome. " They were on the train to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and wizardry. From what James had told them it was an amazing place to be. He also tried to scare the two of them reminding Albus of the stories that Uncle George had told them about their Uncle Fred.
"He reminds me more and more of Fred everyday" George would tell Albus and Rose.
Albus didn't know what ever happened to uncle Fred just that whenever it was mentioned Uncle Percy busted into tears and Grandma Molly as well. Nobody really told the children of Harry's triumphs that day or of the losses the family had. All they knew was that Uncle Fred, Tonks and Rupin died for a good cause and that Harry had defeated the greatest wizard of the time. Yes Voldermort was evil... but unlocked secrets of magic that no other wizard or witch had ever did making him one of the greatest wizards of all time. He did terrible things, but was a great wizard.
Albus and Rose were getting settled in when a young boy burst through the door.
"You must be Albus and Rose." said the boy, "I'm Scorpius Malfoy"
"My daddy says your father is a worthless git and I shouldn't talk to you" Rose said.
"Well your fathers a worthless blood traitor, and your mothers a mudblood" Scorpius retorted.
"Hey don't talk about my aunt and uncle, or I will hex you." Albus said confidently, pulling out his wand and pointing it at Scorpius.
"Ooo, I'm so scared Potter" Scorpius said as he too, pulled out his wand, or at least tried to. Albus was too quick He waved his wand and shouted "Reducto!!"
Scorpius flew backwards and hit a wall but quickly recover and muttered "Expelliarmus."
It missed Albus and he went to fire another spell at Scorpius but an invisible shield had sent the two boys flying in opposite directions.
"What's going on here" yelled a 7th year named Jimmy Chang as he separated the 2 boys. Jimmy was tall and of Asian decent. He had the Ravenclaw symbol on his chest along with a badge that read head boy.
"He called my uncle worthless blood traitor and my aunt a mudblood!!" Albus screamed.
"Yea!! So what if I did?" Scorpius replied.
"You shouldn't insult peoples families like that kid." Jimmy said calmly, " Now please go back to your seat and chill out for the rest of the ride."
Scorpius glared at Albus, but realized he had no choice but to listen and slumped of back to his seat. There was a moment of silence between the three left there before Jimmy spoke up.
"You shouldn't be so quick to pull the trigger Albus" Jimmy said.
"How do you know my name?" Albus asked.
"Your one of Harry Potter's kids right?" Jimmy said to Albus.
"Yea" Albus replied.
"Then the question is, who doesn't know your name." Jimmy said.
"Oh" Albus simply replied.
"By the way, my name is Jimmy Chang, I'm head boy hear at Hogwarts. If you ever need anything just find me."
"Ok" Albus replied.
" You know my mom talks about him, your dad I mean, said she used to fancy him when they were in school. When I told her about your brother James being sort off a prankster she was shocked and said Harry was never like that. Said he must of inherited it from Fred and George. She still tells me stories about the firecrackers and the portable swamp they let off. Fred and George Weasly are Legends for that. "
" Yea, mom told me about that too" Albus grinned, happy that Fred was remembered as a legend.
"Well, do you think my sister and her friend Lunar could sit here with you and your friend, there first years too, and there cramping my style." Jimmy said.
"Yea why not" Albus said.
"Ok I'll go get them" Jimmy said and left to go get his sister and her friend.
"Well at least one thing good came out of meeting Scorpius." Rose said dreamily.
"What was that?" Albus asked questionably.
"He is cute." Rose said. Albus just shook his head and smiled. Maybe he could catch up with Scorpius later. We could be friends, there was no reason for them not to be, so what our fathers were enemy's, doesn't mean we have to be Albus thought to himself. The two sat in silence and waiting for the arrival of Jimmy's sister and her friend.
5 minutes later the compartment door slid open and in came the two first years, Dalena Chang and Lunar Lovegood.
Dalena was kind of short, brown eyed, black haired girl, she was real pretty. Lunar was a tall blue eyed, blonde haired boy. Albus smiled at them
Lunar spoke first... " Hey I'm Lunar Lovegood.
" I'm Albus Potter, and this is my cousin Rose Weasley." Albus said now pointing at Rose.
"Really?, my mom is Luna Lovegood. She says she went to school with your parents." Scorpius said.
" I don't know why, but my dad always said Luna was Loony."
"Rose be nice to the people" Albus shot at her, not wanting to have another fight.
"Ok I will, Sorry Lunar." Rose said blushing at Lunar. Albus knew she probably thought he was cute too.
Through all of this Dalena stayed quiet. She just sat there with her head down.
"Hey Dalena... What's wrong?" Albus said.
She just shook her head and kept quiet.
"That Malfoy kid was picking on her because her father is a muggle, he called her family a bunch of blood traitors and then he called her ugly." Lunar said.
" Don't worry about Malfoy... he doesn't know anything or what he's talking about. Your not ugly Dalena." Albus said.
She smiled at him and said " Thanks."
The rest of the time was silent and Albus just stared out the window watching the grass fields of cows and farms go by. The compartment door only opened once more and it was James who was hiding from Jimmy for something stupid he probably did with his friends. James some how managed to squeeze under the seats just as Jimmy came through the door. After this episode Jimmy came back a little later and told them they should get their robes on they would be arriving soon. They all put their robes on over their clothes.
The train came slowly to a halt. People got off of the train onto a dark tiny platform. Then a lamp came bobbing down over the heads of students.
"Firs' years! Firs' years over here!" Hagrid called out.
"C'mon follow me" Hagrid added.
They followed Hagrid down a steep narrow path. It was darker then usual, so Albus thought there must be very thick threes around them. Nobody said a word.
"Yeh'll get yer firs' sight o' Hogwarts in a sec," Hagrid called over his shoulder, "jus' round this bend here."
They came too a great black lake. Their perched atop of a high mountain with its windows sparkling inside was what Albus would be calling home for the next seven years.
" No more'n four to a boat " Hagrid called out. He then called out Forward when everyone was in and situated and the boats moved.
No one spoke through out the whole boat ride. They just sat and looked at the castle. Everyone gave a shout when a mermaid did a flip out of the water and when the centaurs appeared at the edge of the lake. They finally got to the castle and Hagrid opened the huge oak door.
"Hello new students welcome to Hogwarts. All of your belongings have been taken care of and I hope you are ready to be sorted." Professor Flitwick said.
He then led them into the great hall. When they were all were in the Great Hall the sorting hat was presented and sung a familiar song :
"Oh,you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your tops hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell brave of heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true And unafraid of toil;
Or yet wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind, Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means To achive their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And you won't get in a flap!
You're safe in my hands(though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!!"
After it sang its song the sorting began.
"Austin, Jake" Flitwick called out.
"Hmm... HUFFLEPUFF" the Sorting Hat cried out while the Hufflepuff table roared.
"Baker, Justin" Flitwick announced.
"Slytherin" The hat shouted out. The Slytherin table clapped.
After a few names it was Dalena's turn.
"Chang, Dalena" Flitwick said.
"Ah I see, you wish to be like the rest of your family, ok... RAVENCLAW" the Sorting hat cried out.
After a lot of names Scorpius was put in Slytherin as soon as his name was called a few more names after that it was Albus's turn.
"Potter, Albus" Flitwick called out. Albus sat on the stool and the sorting hat was placed on his head.
"Ah Mr. Potters Son. He choose not to be in Slytherin even though he would have been great there. I see Weasley in your blood so my first reaction is Gryffindor, but you could be great in Slytherin, What do you say?" the sorting hat said.
"Not Slytherin." Albus said.
"Not Slytherin eh??... better be GRYFFINDOR" The hat bellowed while the Gryffindor table roared with delight.
Rose was put in Gryffindor as well while Lunar was added to the Ravenclaw table.
"Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts. The Forbidden Forest is off limits like usual. Now we may feast" The old Professor McGonagall said.
Albus didn't talk much during the feast. Something had popped into his mind ever since he arrived in this place. Something he had to do. So he figured the faster he got done eating the faster he would be able to do what he wanted.
" Now that the feast is over, Bed for all of you, you will have a long day tomorrow." McGonagall said.
Albus waited a little while then walked straight up to McGonagall and said " Hi Professor... I wanted to ask you something"
"Very well then ask" McGonagall said.
"I want to meet the people I was named after and I know you have portraits of all the old headmasters on your wall so before I go to bed can I meet them?"
"Very well, If you must" McGonagall replied.
A/N: Yea I know McGonagall and Flitwick are ancient but I had to add them for one last time... tell me what you think and if I should continue.
