Hey guys :)

New chapter...sooner that i thought.

Harry Potter a different life

Chapter 10

Harry started reading. Godric wrote mostly about his life. But what Harry interested the most was all the facts about Hogwarts.

The Students that will attend Hogwarts will learn all about the Wizarding and Muggle world. The main classes will be Transfiguration, Potion, charms, Defense, History, Astronomy, Muggle Studies (for those who grew up in the Wizarding world), Care for Magical creatures, Wizarding Customs (for those who grew up in the Muggle World), Flying (only first years), Herbology. Electives (third years and up) will be Ancients runes, Arithmancy, Wizarding Law, Alchemy (Sithx and seventh years only) Apparition(sixth years and those of age only), Healing.

Harry was confused. Some of these classes weren't on his book list. Won´t he need books for them? He decided to ask his Parents about this. Harry got up and walked into the hallway. He found them in the living room. "Hey ah…I got a question" Harry started as he sat down next to his Father on the couch. "See I was reading one of Godrics journals and he described what classes there will be at Hogwarts but some of the classes he mentioned weren´t on my book list" He said looking at them.

"Which classes do you mean?" Lily asked.

"Ah" Harry said looking back at the journal "Care for magical creatures and Wizarding Custom" he said.

"Well Care for Magical creatures is an elective you can chose in your third year and Wizarding cutoms is no class you have to learn that at home" James said.

"No this journal says different" Harry said and showed his parents the journal. His parents carefully read the sections about the classes.

"Well this certainly is interesting" Lily said.

"Yeah we should write to Minerva maybe she knows more" James said. "Harry could we borrow your owl?" He asked and Harry nodded.

"Oh and Harry if you find more please write it down okay" Lily said.

"Yes I will. Oh when is Dinner?" Harry asked.

"Around 7pm" Lily said and Harry went back to his room. He continued reading but didn´t found anything interesting. The rest of the day went by fast. Harry awoke the next morning with a start. Outside was a storm. It was raining and there was a thunderstorm. He looked at the clock next to his bed…it was just after 6am. He decided that he probably won´t be able to go back to sleep he got up and went to the bathroom. After a long, hot shower he got dressed. It was now nearly 7am. Harry and Leo went to the kitchen and saw that no one was up yet so he started to make breakfast. Harry made chocolate chips Pancakes, eggs and bacon as well as tea and coffee. Just as he finished his Parents came in.

"Morning Harry…you made Breakfast?" Lily asked confused as she sat down and grabbed a cup of coffee and a plate of eggs and bacon.

"Yeah I was up at 6 and I am used to it…I like cooking it is relaxing" Harry said and grabbed a plate of pancakes. Soon everyone was up and eating breakfast.

"We´re going to invite the Bones, Longbottoms and professor McGonagall for dinner tonight" said James. "Also we are going shopping in Muggle London…we thought to leave at 10am so you better get ready" he added and soon the kids were all rushing upstairs to get ready.

"What about Leo?" asked Harry as he was standing in the entrance hall.

"Sorry Harry but we can´t take him with us I am sure we will do just fine staying here" James said and ruffled Harrys hair. At exactly 10am they left via Portkey. They landed in a small alley in London. Quickly they made their way to a small shop. James took Harry and Marc to the male collection and Lily took Emily and Charlotte to the female collection. Harry got many polo, button, simple T-shirts and blazers in blue, black, white, grey but mostly in green and red. He also got many Jeans in different shades of blue and black and a few Suits and ties. Marc also got a few t-shirts with comic prints on them like Superman and Batman.

Emily got many tops, shirts, blazers and summer dresses in red, yellow, green, black, white but mostly in blue. She also got a few shorts, skirts and jeans as well as a few evening dresses. Charlotte also got a few dresses in yellow with a floral print on. When they were done it was already lunch time so they went to a café near the shop.

"Mum I was wondering about school?" Marc asked while eating his sandwich.

"Well there is a School in Godrics Hollow and if you really want to go you can" Lily said smiling.

"I want to" said Marc happily.

"Me too" Emily said smiling.

"Good…but you can´t tell anyone about magic or where you live okay" James warned them. They nodded. After Lunch they went back home. In the Kitchen Hedwig was already waiting with a response from Minerva and Amelia. Lily read it.

"They will be here by 5pm. They will bring Susan and Neville with them. Please be ready by 4:30pm and dress nicely" Lily said. The Kids went upstairs. Harry and Emily put their new clothes in their Wardrobes. Harry grabbed another one of Godrics Journals and sat down at his desk and started reading. Soon he pulled out a piece of parchment and a quill and started writing.

The heir gets a seat in The Wizengamot and Hogwarts board of governor. The heir has final saying in these. The Heir can Apperate in and out of Hogwarts.

Harry put the quill back down and looked at the list. He smiled. With a look at the clock on his desk he realized that it was already 3:30pm. He got up and got ready. After 45 minutes he was done. He was dressed in a plain green polo shirt with plain black Jeans. He took the list and went downstairs. His Parents and Charlotte where already waiting. 5 minutes after Harry came Emily down dressed in a plain blue summer dress with her Hair in a ponytail. Harry gave the list to his Mother.

"They must be here soon. I already keyed them into the Wards. I want you to stand in line age-ordered" James said and put Charlotte down. 5 minutes later was a knock on the door. James opened. There were Amelia, Susan, Neville, Mrs. Longbottom and Professor McGonagall. "Welcome to Potters Castle" James said smiling and led them inside. After a quick introducing they went to the Kitchen and sat down at the big Dining table. The adults at one end and the Kids at the other end. They had lamb chops with potatoes and vegetables. After the usual small talk they started to discuss the matter of Sirius.

"So Amelia have you found a good date yet?" asked James.

"Yes in two days at 11am but it´s going to be hard Dumbledore was at the Ministry today he found out that Harry has left Surrey and wanted help in finding him. He found out that we have evidence that would free Sirius…he will probably fight this I mean he is the Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot" Amelia said.

"Ah Harry has found something interesting earlier in one of Godric Gryffindors Journals. As Heirs of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw the Potter Family has more than one seat in the Wizengamot. And the Heirs have final say" Lily said and gave Amelia the list who read it and handed it to the others.

"That definitely changes things" Mrs. Longbottom said.

"Yeah James would you be willing to reveal the fact that the Potter Family is the Heir of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw?" Amelia asked.

James thought for a while. "Yes I will do everything for my Best friend and Brother in everything but blood" he finally said.

"Good. Now what to do with Dumbledore?" Amelia asked.

"Well we will have to remove him from all Political position he has as well as from Hogwarts. And according to this list it would do Hogwarts nothing but good to have him removed. We should do that soon so I can send out letters for the new classes as well as finding Teachers" McGonagall said.

"Minerva would you be willing to act as Headmistress?" Mrs. Longbottom asked.

"Yes I would. Also I would remove Binns and Severus from staff" McGonagall said.

"WHAT…Severus a teacher…at Hogwarts? What was Dumbledore thinking" Lily said shocked.

"I don´t know but ever since he was teaching Potions the grades have been falling except for Slytherin of course" McGonagall said sadly.

"Well we will have to change that…as for History I thing I know exactly who to ask for that" James said smiling.

"And who might that be?" McGonagall asked.

"Andromeda Tonks of course" James answered smiling.

"That is a good idea I will ask her after the trial" McGonagall said.

"The list said something about Wards around Hogwarts do you know anything about that?" Mrs. Longbottom asked.

"No not really but I will have to find that out" McGonagall said. The rest of the dinner was spent talking about this and that. The Kids got to know each other and decided that they should meet at least once a week. After Dinner the adults went into the Living room and the Kids went up to Harrys room.

"Wow is that a Griffin Harry?" asked Susan.

"Yes his name is Leo he is my Familiar" said Harry and stroke Leo´s neck.

"Cool" said Neville and sat down on the couch.

"Did I got that right that you are the Heir of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw?" Susan asked as she sat down next to Neville.

"Yeah we are. I am even the chosen heir of Gryffindor. I will learn from his Journals and so on" Harry said sitting down in one of the armchairs.

"What house do you think you will get in?" asked Neville.

"I don´t know but I think Gryffindor as I am his heir and so on" Harry said.

"Probably Hufflepuff as the rest of my Family was there" Susan said smiling.

"Gran wants me to be in Gryffindor like my Parents but I don´t think will end up there…Probably Hufflepuff as most people think that I don´t have much power" said Neville sad. Susan put her arm around him and smiled at him.

"Don´t say something like this Neville…everyone is powerful in their own way. You probably just haven't found out what your good at. I don´t think much people know that at our age. We will have to see which subject we´re good in at Hogwarts" she said.

"Really?" asked Neville shy.

"Yes Neville…until 4 days ago I thought I was a useless freak" Harry said smiling at Neville.

"Thank you…I really needed that" Neville said. "What subject are you most looking forward to?" he asked.

"Potions or Transfiguration…I can´t really decide…you?" Harry said.

"History or Astronomy" Susan said.

"Herbology…I was always good with plants" Neville said with a little bit of confidence.

"Good see you already have something your good at now you just have to make something out of it" Susan said smiling. The continued to talk until 9pm when Susan and Neville had to leave. The hugged and said goodbye. Harry went to bed with a big smile on his face.
