Albus was awoken the next morning by a stream of cold water pouring onto his face. He spluttered and coughed, sitting bolt upright. 'What was that for!?' he half-shouted at the perpetrators. There were two brown haired boys, exactly identical, standing above him. Albus was reminded strongly off picture he had seen of his Uncle George with his brother, Fred. They were alike to the last freckle at right then, their faces were alight with mischievous grins. In there hands were their wands, the water charm just being used. Scorpius was watching the scene with a grin on his face.
'Its time for breakfast, Al,' one if the twins said. 'I'm Daniel and he's David. Hurry up and get down to breakfast, lazybones!' Albus quickly jumped out of bed and remembered- He was in Hogwarts! He quickly got dressed and followed his roommates into the common room. It was very different in the light than it had been yesterday. Lanterns adorned the walls and the earth walls and floor seemed to shimmer in their light. As they emerged from the trapdoor with Rose and Janie, they realised they were in a different place. 'the trapdoor moves every day,' explained Rose. 'I read about it in Hufflepuff:A History by Pomona Sprout. She is one of the best Hufflepuffs and Herbologists alive!'
She was silenced as they walked into the hall. A Potter, Malfoy and a Weasley friends? As they walked by the Gryffindor table, Albus heard his brother say, 'You're no brother of mine. Not in Gryffindor and friends with a Malfoy! Who do you think you are?' he said scathingly. Albus tried to fight back the tears, but even the teachers were looking at him strangely. As they took their places at the Hufflepuff table, a boy next to Scorpius whispered 'What did you do to him, Malfoy? Did you use the Imperius curse. I bet you did, you little Voldemort in training!' Malfoy was visibly fighting back tears of anger and sorrow. Didn't these people see him as his own person? He wasn't his father or his grandfather. He wasn't!
Just then, the post came in. Rose looked relieved as she saw an owl coming to her, but then her eyes widened and she looked for somewhere to hide. For in the owls beak was an unmistakeable Howler. As the letter dropped onto her head, she took out her wand. 'Evanesco' she whispered. The Howler only made an ominous hissing sound and then:
'ROSE HERMIONE WEASLEY!
HOW DARE YOU DEFY MY WISHES!HUFFLEPUFF?
LOSERPUFF MORE LIKE!I TOLD YOU THAT YOU HAD NO CHOICE BUT GRYFFINDOR
AND IS WHAT JAMES TOLD ME CORRECT?
FRIENDS WITH A MALFOY!
THAT FAMILY IS NOTHING BUT TROUBLE AND DEATH EATERS!
HOW DARE YOU EVEN TALK TO HIM?
IF I EVER HEAR OF YOU GOING WITHIN A TEN FOOT RADIUS OF HIM I WILL BRING YOU STRAIGHT BACK HOME!
With that, the letter burst into flame and smouldered in the breakfast table, leaving only a few ashes to sprinkle on the floor. Rose wanted a hole to appear and swallow her up. How dare her father embarrass her like that? How dare he! Professor McGonagal was looking grim as she surveyed the scene of laughing, whispering students. Scorpius had already left the hall and Albus looked like he wanted to follow.
Just then, another owl descended onto the table in front of Rose. She looked like she wanted to scream, but the letter wasn't red. She opened it and read the letter.
Dear Rose
Your father will be having a serious talking to. I think this letter has arrived just after the Howler, am I correct? I tried to calm him down, Rosie, I really did, but he was furious. He just couldn't make amends with the Malfoys and he suffered a shock when you weren't in Gryffindor. To make up for it, I have taken some money from his Gringotts account(shh!) and I will be buying you a broomstick, so watch the post! I am very sorry and it wont happen again. Tell Scorpius sorry too, because even if I am a bit shocked I want to meet him and I'm sure he is different.
Yours Sincerely
Mum
Rose felt a bit better after she read the letter, but she couldn't enjoy her breakfast. One of her new friends might hate her and it was all her fault. On the bright side, her father isn't the only one who can send Howlers. With a grin, she remembered that her father was going to a dinner at his Aunt Muriel's house tomorrow. A good time for a little- interruption.
Albus, however, was still annoyed, but there was no time to be angry, as the timetables were being handed out. He glanced at his classes.

As the bell rang they made their way to their first class. Professor Flitwick was an old man who had stand on a pile of books to reach his desk. As he took the register, he squeaked a little as he reached Albus' name. 'Now, class. Today we will be learning the art of Charms. We will be levitating feathers now. You must say 'Wingardium Leviosa' and move your wand with a swish and a flick. You may start,' he said. Feathers appeared on everyone's desks. 'Wingardium Leviosa' said Rose. Her feather daintily rose towards the ceiling. On the other hand, Janie and Scorpius were having more trouble. 'Wingardium Leviosa!Wingardium Leviosa! Wingbardium Lebosa! Oh, sorry Rose,' Janie said as her mid worded spell set Rose's robes on fire. Rise put it out with her wand before profesor Flitwick came to their desk.
'Ah, Albus. Can you show me the spell?' he said. Albus focused hard on the words and said 'Wingardium Leviosa!'All at once, something incredible happened. The entire room shook and dust flew from the ceiling. As Albus finished his spell, the entire room lifted and started moving about, higher and higher until-'Finite Incantatem!' Professor Flitwick said. 'My, my Albus, what a powerful spell. Fifty points to Hufflepuff, but take away ten for half destroying my classroom.' Professor Flitwick's eyes twinkled, but there was another expression on his face. Pride and fear? Before Albus could concentrate on it, the bell rang and they had to go to their next lesson.
