Arrival
The large, mainly red-headed family were relaxing on a beach, having finally finished rebuilding at least some parts of their lives after the war. A couple were sitting slightly apart from them; a red headed girl was sitting across from a young man with black hair and green eyes that held all the love and devotion he could muster in them as he gazed at her, their low voices not carrying in the soft wind. He laughed at something she said, and threw his head back, feeling so joyous and carefree, something he hadn't felt for quite some time.
Not too far from where this group had settled for the day, the sand began to swirl. One of the many red-heads began to stare, causing the others to look in the general direction. The sand began to swirl in an upwards spiral, and was so fast and thick nothing could be seen through it. Suddenly, the land began to fall, and three people had materialised behind it; two red headed boys and one red headed girl, slightly younger than the other two. They looked around in shock and fear at where they where, doing double takes when they saw the large family staring in their direction, jaws hanging open.
'Well thanks a lot, James! How the hell do we explain this! I told you not to play with it, Dad said it was dangerous, but you just had to touch didn't you! God, why can't you just do as you're told for once in your life!' The young girl exclaimed, shock being quickly replaced with anger.
'It wasn't my fault! I didn't know this would happen!' He retorted, angry as well.
'No, nothing is ever your fault, is it?' She shook her head, and began to storm off around some rocks.
'Lily! Come back! Come on, you can't just walk away!' James called after her. 'Thanks a lot for your help, Al,' he added sarcastically to his other companion.
'I refuse to take part in any more of your arguments. They always leave me ending up worse off,' he casually responded, inspecting his surroundings serenely. 'Should we talk to them?'
'I don't know. We're not supposed to let anyone from the past see us, but they don't know who we are so is it OK?' He answered, unsure of whether to proceed towards the family, or to see where Lily had gotten to.
'Well, you try introducing yourself, without giving too much away, and I'll go see how Lily is. I think if she sees you she may just avada kedavra you,' he said, with a slight smirk on his face. He wandered off around the same rocks Lily had disappeared behind, as James sloped towards the family.
'Hi everyone,' he said nervously, with a slight wave of his hand.
Not too sure how this story is going to play out just yet, but this had been floating around in my head for about a year now so I thought I should see how it works :)
