MAKAYLA S P.O.V.
The next morning Lola woke me up by jumping on my stomach. Lola you aren t a puppy anymore. I groaned pushing her off me.
I got up and got ready for the day. I headed to Dumbledore s office. When I got there I didn t bother knocking I stormed in and slammed the door behind me. DUMBLEDORE YOU BETTER HAVE A GOOD REASON FOR SENDING HARRY TO THE DURSLEY S! I yelled my anger boiling over. He walked over from where he is standing looking at his book shelf.
What can I help you with Makayla? He asked calmly.
DON T GIVE ME THAT DUMBLEDORE YOU KNOW FULL WELL THAT MY PARENTS HAD THIRDY PEOPLE HE COULD GO TO HE WAS NEVER SUPPOSE TO EVEN MEET THE DURSLEYS SO YOU BETTER STOP TRYING TO ACT INISENT BECAUSE YOU, UNCLE SIRIUS, UNCLE REMUS, MENERVA, AMILIA BONES AND FRANK AND ALICE LONGBOTTOM WITNESSED THAT WILL ALONG WITH MYSELF EVEN IF MY PARENTS WERE UNAWARE I COULD READ! I roared at him my anger through the ruff. Makayla you know full well that the blood wards only work with a member of your mother s family. Dumbledore spoke calmly his eyes ever having that accursed twinkle.
DUMBLEDORE HE WAS NEVER SUPPOSE TO GO! HE COULD HAVE STAYED WITH ME AT POTTER MANNER OR MCGONAGALL MANNER OR WITH AUGUSTA AND NEVILLE IN LONGBOTTOM MANNER OR MAYBE JUST MAYBE YOU COULD HAVE DONE YOU JOB AS CHIEF WARLOCK OR EVEN BETTER SAPPERIME MUGWAMP AND GOT SIRIUS A TRIAL LIKE YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO AND HE COULD HAVE LIVED AT POTTER MANNER LIKE MUM, DAD, AND SIRIUS HAD PLANNED FROM THE START! I yelled at him at start I slammed my hand down on his desk making everything on it jump along with him at the sudden impact. Makayla just calm down- I cut him off right there.
NO! I WILL NOT CALM DOWN! MY BROTHER. MY ELEVEN YEAR OLD BROTHER WAS LIED TO ALL HIS LIFE ABOUT OUR PARENTS DEATH SAYING THEY DIED IN A CAR CRASH AND THAT THEY WERE NO GOOD LAZY DRUNKS! NOW I KNOW YOU TOOK OVER AS HIS MAGICAL GUARDIAN IF YOU DON T HAND IT OVER TO SOMEONE MORE COMPITENT I WILL TAKE THIS TO THE WIZGOMITE! AND I WILL MAKE SURE YOU LOSE NOT ONLY YOU JOB HERE BUT ALSO YOU WILL NO LONGER BE SUPPREAM MUGWAMP AND CHIEF WARLOCK! I COULD HAVE YOU IN AZKABAN FOR THIS DUMBLEDORE! I screamed at him. I stormed from the office never giving him a chance to reply to that.
I headed down to breakfast were all of Potter house sat eating. One of the Weasley Twins walked up to me. Professor M-Mak-Makay-Makayla? He stuttered a blush evident on his cheeks but I didn t call him out on it. Yes Mr. Weasley. I said looking at him. Could-could I-I ta-talk to y-you alone f-for a-a mo-moment? He stuttered out. Yes Mr. Weasley head to my office I ll join you in a moment. I stated walking up to the head table to grab an apple to eat on the way. I walked into my office throwing the apple core into the trash can. What did you want to talk about Mr. Weasley? I asked him he looked up the blush still on his face. Well I was. I was wondering if you would. If you would like to go to Hogsmeade with me? On the first trip? He asked.
Mr. Weasley if would be highly inappropriate as I am your professor. I started to say as he looked down disappointed.
But as I am a Marauder s daughter I feel like should create a little mayhem. Okay you got yourself a date. I said with a smile. He looked up the smile on his face seemed to light up my office. Thanks Professor! He shouted happily. Mr. Weasley as we do have a date next week I would suggest when not in class that you call me Makayla. I said laughing. As long as you call me Fred. He said still grinning. I nodded as Fred walked out of the office with a large grin on his face.
I smiled as I walked to the common room to wait for the students to return from breakfast they soon did. As the last walked in being Fred and his twin I got the students attention. Now I know some of you have been in this house for all three years it s been around but there are things about this house that you don t know. I said much to the shock of the students in the older years.
I couldn t risk Dumbledore finding out my family is descendants of all four Hogwarts Founders so as headmaster Dumbledore would try to force me to tell him the spells to add to this castle or worse take things out that were here long before Dumbledore was even born. So I told no other Professor of the rooms and made them think I put it in a rather large abandoned classroom I found. I said looking around to gauge everyone s reactions. Everyone seemed to feel the same thing shock.
I want to show you all how to get into each room and where they are so if you would please follow me. I said walking over to a painting of Harry as a baby napping against a white lion cub the cub laying in between a doe and a stag. This is the first of the rooms before lunch if we move quickly we only have to cover a couple after. I said before tapping the top right corner five times. It swung open to reveal a long hall way. This will lead to a private study for each of you and at the end of the hall is a library with books from all over the world Muggle and Magical it is bigger than the Hogwarts Library. Joke books to text books you can t find them in there then they may not exist there are even some from my family s manner they are some rather old texts so they will be protected from damage and they cannot be removed but still please do be careful. I said as I closed the painting.
I walked over to the next one. A painting of Frank, Uncle Sirius, Uncle Remus, and dad playing quidditch. Now this one is special for our Quidditch players. I said before saying the password. Mischief managed. They laughed as Dad nodded and the painting opened. This room is about the size of the school s quidditch pitch if not larger but I made sure that it was not smaller so if the pitch is taken you can come here to practice the ceiling will move up if need be. I said before leaving the room.
This continued through the potions lab, my private study (should they need to find me), dueling hall, armory (should they want to practice with muggle weapons through the years), the supply room, shooting range, arcade (only place in the wizarding word that technology can be used in), kitchen, and the photo studio. Then we braked for lunch. Okay we got more done before lunch than I thought we would so we only have one room to do after lunch.
After lunch was simple I walked them over to a statue of the Potters and Longbottoms. I tapped the base of the statue once with my wand. Everyone can open the room just tap the base of the statue with your wand. I said so they knew they could go to. The statue moved aside to show a Hall of portraits, paintings, tapestries, statues, and other things.
This is the hall of Heroes. Everyone who fought for the light against Voldemort. Their portrait hangs here, they died to defeat them they have a statue in their honor their wand preserved for their families if they didn t want to keep the constant reminder of what they lost when they didn t burry them with it. We even have their Family s crest on the case with their wand their name etched into the glass. The wand is under the right person. The Longbottoms are here as well we have Alice s wand but Augusta wanted to keep Frank s. I stated looking at the empty case under Frank s portrait. I-I have it. I turned as Neville spoke up.
That might be why you are struggling in casting spells. Yes I have seen everyone try at least the levitation charm. I ll take you to get your own next week on Sunday. I told him. He nodded and told me after he got his own I could put his father s in its rightful spot. I nodded thanking him for the donation.
TIME SKIP TO DINNER
I stood up and tapped my goblet with my fork. I won t keep you from your dinner too long I just have one small announcement to make. I said walking up to the center of the head table area to the podium.
Someone has correctly guessed my name. He got this hint from my use of the words lightning news . My own brother has guessed correctly. If you would join me up here Harry. I said as the Hall gasped.
Harry as you have guessed. Yes I am Makayla Potter oldest child of Lilly and James Potter. You won not only what you were going to receive by finding a family member that will tell you about Mum and Dad. You won a paid trip to Diagon Ally, Muggle London, and our very own Hogsmeade for you and six people of your choice and their parents if they would like to chaperone which would be very much appreciated. I said proudly Harry grinned and hugged me happily. I headed back to my seat as Harry did the same.
The rest of dinner passed uneventful. We all headed to bed after eating.
