"Thank you for coming in to see me for Parent / Teacher conference," Ms Reynolds said as she welcomed Robert through the door of her class room, stepping through Robert hands Ms. Reynolds a bouquet of flowers.
"Any excuse you come up with to see me is alright by me,' Replied Robert with a smirk.
"Now Mr. Evans I have told you several times I do not become associated with my students parents on a personal level."
"Janet I know, please I am just building up the foundation Hadrian has less than a month left in your class than its fair game," Robert said while winking.
"Regardless of your personal intentions we are here to discuss your son," Ms. Reynolds tried to steer the discussion back on track. "Now even though Hadrian is third in his classes for overall grades there are situations that I think he is responsible for I just haven't been able to catch him."
Robert looked at her with a smirk on his face "Now what could my sweet, innocent son have done?"
"Well like I said Mr. Evans we haven't been able to prove it, but I'm pretty sure he is responsible for a lot of pranks that happened in our year. For example we were all out to recess and when we came back in all the children's utensils."
"Okay I assume Hadrian or Collins utensils weren't stuck to their desk?"
"No on the contrary it was a girl that was number one in the year, she also maybe by chance had an argument with Hadrian earlier that day. They were in a fight because Hadrian grasps magical theory like none I have ever seen, and he takes pleasure in rubbing it in Ms. Schneider's face every chance he gets."
"Well what makes you think it was Hadrian? Maybe it's just a case of good child gone bad?"
"I could think maybe she reached her breaking point but when I gave her detention during the next recess Collin had a smirk on his face, and one thing I figured out Hadrian is the master mind between the two. Collin just can't control his emotions as well."
With a chuckle Robert looked around the room "Well he is a junior marauder, what can you expect?"
With a puzzled look Ms. Reynolds had to ask "What is a marauder, Hadrian brought it up his first day and said I would know what it is?"
"Well miss, I'm pretty sure you know what a marauder is. A smart beautiful woman like you should be able to put two and two together. If that is all I will see you at a bbq at my house on the fourth of July." Not waiting for answer Bob just walked out of the classroom.

"So how many pranks did you and Collin pull under your teachers nose this year," Asked Darren as they walked around the property before the party.
"Like 15 or 16 I think, it was all way to easy to frame people," replied Hadrian with a smirk.
"She never thought it was you at all?"
"No man I'm the son of an original marauder pranking is in my blood," said Hadrian in between chuckles.
"Contrary to your belief Mr. Evans I always knew it was you and Mr. Reese I just never had the evidence to punish you," interjected a smirking Ms. Reynolds.
Turning around both boys were gob smacked as they stared at Hadrian's teacher standing in his front yard. Before he can stutter out a response he hears his dads voice "Oh Janet you made it come around back by the rest of the adults"
Winking at the boys she turned at walked back towards Robert, as soon as she was out of hearing distance, Hadrian turned on his friend "Why didn't you tell me she was here? Are you trying to set me up?"
"Shut up Hadrian you know I would never do that"
With that the two boys started walking around the property talking about pranks for the summer and next school year.
"So what you are trying to say is you just got me pranked for the rest of the summer because you just made it seem like I sold my son out"
"Yes Robert that's about the way that I see it. I had to deal with it all year 2 more months won't hurt you."
"Wow well thank you for having you rule against dating parents of children in your class. This year could have been terrible for me, but on to other subjects I take it that you are here because you thought about the foundation building I've been doing?"
To everyone else's humor she out her hand on his forearm and smirked "Actually is John here?"
At his expression everyone else was laughing.

"I still can't believe this country not only did you start learning magical spells, I know you haven't cast them but the way Janet describes it to me this next year is just a refresher course for Transfiguration and Charms, but your third year in grade school they bring in potions and herbology. Then in your fifth year you get an introductory to Ancient Runes and Arithmancy. By the time you're in your seventh year I won't be able to teach you anything."
"It's okay dad, I'm doing alright as long as I stay up on my studies everything should be fine."
"Stay up on your studies, you have been playing football every year and still manage to be in the top 10 in your class each year. That's something special. It just shows how good of a parent I am."
"Maybe it shows how good you are at picking your girlfriend. Not that you didn't help but I'm pretty sure that Ms. Reynolds helped a lot," Replied Hadrian with a smirk.
"How many times does she have to tell you to call her Janet you aren't her student anymore."
"It's still weird dad come on, you have to admit that she was my teacher."
Shrugging his shoulders Robert looked at his watch, looking back up at Hadrian he asks "Do you have all your extra classes picked out? You have to get your supplies for fourth year of Potions and your books for your Herbology, Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, your refresher book for Charms and Transfiguration."
"Well I think I am going to do the Harnessing your inner beast and Defensive tactics. Defensive tactics is something I need to take before I can get in to Offensive Tactics. They also are the steps toward the four year course for Control the Battleground taught by the MLE."
"Isn't the last course where they teach you about muggle weapons?"
"Yes Dad its one of the requirements for getting in to the Trinity Strike Team, even if I can't make it in to that it leaves open the MLE."
Nodding his head Robert looks towards his watch again "Well it's time to get this show on the road, James, Darren, Brendan and Collin will all be waiting at the mall for us if we don't hurry."
Walking up towards the mall, Hadrian sees his two best friends and their father; upon reaching them he shakes his friend's hands.
"So are you boys ready to get the shopping done with?" Asked Brendan with a smirk.
Collin looked at his dad and just nodded. Seeing his son's response he smiles wider "If you guys take too long today we will start sending you to shop with the women."
Grimacing the boys made a mental note not to linger. Walking through the doors they heading towards the uniform store, upon entering they see all different styles of their high school uniform. Looking around Hadrian has no idea why there are so many styles. Darren seeing his friend's confusion decides to enlighten him.
"They leave you some kind of lee-way with your uniform. The only stipulation is that the pants and the jacket are black, the vest is red and the shirt is white."
"Oh okay so the type of the fabric for the clothes doesn't matter as they long as they all look similar."
Seeing his friend's nod Hadrian and Collin started to walk around the store. Hadrian feeling all the fabrics picking out 6 shirts he likes the feel of. Walking over to the slacks he takes out 6 pairs of comfortable slacks to try on. Walking over to the clerk he waits to get measured for any adjustments and for his jacket.
After a lengthy amount of time in the uniform store they head towards the Magical side of the mall to do the rest of their shopping.
The first stops through the door is the apothecary, they grab the requirements for their year and head out. Walking down the way the two sixth years are excited to finally get their wand. Looking around they notice that they are heading away from the wand shop, Hadrian looks up at his dad with a questioning look in his eyes. Knowing what his son's question is he heads him off "We will get your wand last because we want to get our shopping done before the rush gets here."
Nodding in understanding the boys make their stops to pick up their books.
Three hours later the boys finally make their way to the wand shop. Extreme exhaustion was replaced by excitement at the prospect of finally getting their wands. Walking in to the store Robert notices that it is nothing like Olivander's. This place is actually clean and organized. Walking up to the front desk they ring the bell. After a few moments Hadrian rings it again and they hear someone yell from the back "Coming."
A man that looked to be in his late thirties, early forties steps out of the back room. He wipes his hands off on a rag in his pocket as he walks towards the customers, "How may I help you gentlemen?"
Pointing to the two boys, Robert says "They are here to get their wands."
Clapping his hands and showing his excitement the man steps forwards "Who wants to be first?" Looking at both boys neither moved so he pointed to Collin. "Hold your dominant hand out palm towards the ceiling. Make sure you extend your fingers fully."
Nodding his head Collin does this as the man said and holds out his left hand. The man takes a ruler out from the desk. Measuring at a diagonal angel the man nods his head and walks back in to the storage area of the shop. Walking back up he writes something down on paper and looks back at Collin "Now I want you to hold this in your hand until you feel it start to vibrate, when it does set it on the counter I will do the rest."
Turning to Hadrian he nods at him to extend his dominant hand out. Measuring his right hand the same the man measured Collin's, he then hands Hadrian the other cube. Seeing this Robert decided to ask "What are the cubes sir? What do they do?"
"Oh sorry the cubes are type of quartz a lot of countries use different methods. The best one we have found here is learned from the Medicine Men from North and Central American Indian Tribes. When it starts to vibrate it has a feel of your magic, so in turn it will help me find a match quicker. It doesn't narrow down to exact one but it will help me narrow it down from my entire inventory."
Nodding his head Robert watches the process again. After another minute or so Collin puts his cube on the desk, it is now glowing a light blue. Picking up the cube the man walks along the aisle every once and awhile taking small boxes off the shelves. While he is doing this Hadrian sets his cube down.
"Okay so we have narrowed the wood down to Apple, Elder and Mesquite. Just judging by this I would say you will hold an affinity for healing. Now let's try out some to see what we get a feel for."
Handing Collin the first the man waits a second before replacing it with another, Collin drops the second one almost as immediately as he touched it. Around the fifth or sixth wand the man smiles. "Alright so we have the core narrowed down just give me a moment."
The man came back with two more boxes smiling he looks at Collin for a second before handing him a wand. The second the wand touches his hand red and silver sparks shoot from the tip. Clapping his hands the man says "Excellent 8 ¾ inches Apple Wood, with a Phoenix feather core. You will do well in pursuit of any magic dealing with Healing. "
Turning to Hadrian the man picks up the cube and walks to the back of the shop again. After about ten minutes the man returned with around ten wands. "Now you're a different story. I am assuming your emotions are conflicted. We will try straighten you out."
Handing Hadrian the first couple wands with barely a response he hands him a black wand that starts to vibrate, looking back at Hadrian the man smiles and walks in back coming back out with three more boxes he goes back to looking at Hadrian. Never wavering from meeting the man's eyes, the salesman smiles and opens the middle box and starts to give it to him. At initial contact the wand started to shoot white and blue sparks. Nodding his head the man smiles "11 ¾ inches Chestnut and Ebony mixed with the heartstring of a Peruvian Vipertooth Dragon. You have a natural leadership quality that makes these two wands choose you, but words to the wise don't dwell too much on your past or it will swallow you."
Hadrian looked up to meet Robert's eyes both were taken back by the sales mans statement. Looking back at the man Robert handed over his card. Soon after the group left the wand maker all thinking about what the man just said.
