The next day the four friends were dressed for the day and they met up in the common room and started to go down to the great hall for breakfast,once there they went to their table and they started to serve themselves as they were eating they noticed that not everyone was here in the great hall yet,everyone was asleep still.
While they were eating some of the students had started coming in for their breakfast when Ivy had spotted James,James looked up and notice Ivy starring at him,he then glared hatefully at him once James and his friends sat down to eat the mail arrived and an owl landed in front of him,James noticed that it was from his parents he grinned as he opened the letter and started to read it and he paled then half way through it he looked pissed,after reading the letter he stood up and walked right to were his sister was and said"It's all your fault that mom and dad disowned me said that I caused too much trouble, it's all your fault I hate you,stay away from me you snake!"

Ivy had to sigh at her schedule for most of her classes had James in them and she did not feel up to dealing with him,and since it's Monday Ivy and her friends got up and started to head down to the dungeons for their potions class,once there the four friends had found their seats up in the front row on the slytherin side of the room as they started to put their things on to the table the other students had started to come in,James saw his sister and glared hatefully at her causing her to tear up a bit and Lily put her arm around Ivy's shoulder to comfort her which made Ivy smile at Lily.
Just as everyone gotten settled down and their things on the table Professor Horace had come in the room to start the lesson,once he got up to the front of the room he said"Hello,class my name is Professor Slughorn I am also the head of Slytherin,well today you will be learning the difference between cutting,dicing and chopping, now to cut the ingredient you can cut it the long way to get more of the ingredient out or you can cut it the width which you will get the shortest amount of juice from the for the dicing you can either the long way or the width of the ingredient it all depends on if you want to be a master of art of potion making or not,now for the chopping if you look in your books some of your recipes call for a rough chop or finally chopped for the ingredient,well now that you know about that the potion I want you to make is boil cream you have the recipe in your books on page 6 you may begin."
Once the professor said that everyone then went to get their ingredient to start their potion, so while they were working on their potion professor slughorn made his rounds around the room checking on their progress on their potion he then stopped by Ivy's and said"Well done your potion is looking good I would like to invite you to my slug club dear."Ivy smiled at the compliment and said"Of course sir I would be honored to join."Slughorn then smiled at that and he continued onto Severus and said"Well my boy your doing well to I would also like to invite you to my club."Severus looked up and said"Of course sir,would be honored."
Slughorn had then asked the same to Lucius Malfoy and Lily Evans as well who also said yes to joining his little club,after potions where over the four friends then made their way up to transfiguration class once there they then found there seat and waited until all the other students had gotten there,once the class was full Professor Mcgonagall then said"Welcome to Transfiguration everyone,for this class I'll have you make things out of everyday items,but for today's lesson I want you all to turn this match stick into a needle I'll hand out some match sticks for you to try and turn into needles."
Once all the matches were handed out the first ones to turn them into needles were Severus,Lily,Ivy and Lucius Mcgonagall had turned and saw that they turned their matches into needles and said"Well,done you four 20 points to Slytherin."After those four had done it just about half of the class did it as well then Mcgonagall said"Class for homework tonight I want you to write four length page on any transfiguration spell and why they are important class dismissed."
The students then packed up their belongings and they all went into the great hall for their lunch break, after lunch was of course flying lessons which nothing interesting happend they had the rest of the afternoon off then they went back into the great hall for supper then the four friends then went to bed for they had classes again the next day.

Dorea and Charles Potter where sitting in their living room when they received a floo call from Albus Dumbledore Dorea then said"Hello there Headmaster how may we help you today?""Well I need you to bring James back into your family.""May we ask why Dumbledore he has been causing fights,Charles and I have done everything we could think of to get him to stop the fighting we're afraid that he got the touch of the black madness that runs in my family."
Dumbledore then ran his fingers through his beard and said"if you would bring him back in the family I can have someone help him with this.""The Black madness can not be helped headmaster,we will bring James back into the family but he will not be the heir of the family that will be Ivy she will be the head of the family after Charles."
Then Dumbledore thought"Maybe I can get them to let James go after Lily they would make a great couple, then I can get them to make a marriage contract for Ivy with Bill Weasley. Then Dumbledore said"Well you think James and Lily will make a fine couple.""Yes but Lily does not like James in that way though headmaster and I don't blame the girl for that and Charles and I will not push them together if Lily does not want that."Dumbledore then frowned at that and then tried again but with Ivy and said"Well I think you should sign Ivy a marriage contract with Bill Weasley he would make Ivy a nice husband."
Then Charles said"That maybe so headmaster but Dorea are the parents headmaster we will talk to our children who they would like to marry or not and no one else headmaster good day to you."And with that Charles closed off the floo network from the headmaster and he turned to his wife and said"That man was trying to manipulate us dear into marrying off our children surely you felt that right?""Yes dear I did indeed,should we warn the children of the manipulations of the headmaster?""We should yes write to them and let them know dear."
Then Dorea turned and left the room to write to her beloved children so that she can warn them of the headmaster even though she knows that sadly James would follow the headmaster before his family. She was scared for her children to be caught up in what ever Dumbledore has planed for them but she was not about to let that happen.

Ivy then turned to Lily and said"Lily my mother told me to let you know that the headmaster and James plan on getting you and James together.""Thank you for letting me know they will be sourly disappointed since I already have someone that I love right now his name is Regulus Black.""That's great Lily would you believe that I happen to like Lucius and Severus.""What really wow that's great Ivy."Lily smiled at her friend,then Lily said"Think next year for hogsmade I might ask Regulus to go with me.""I think he will if you ask him since next year we will be allowed to go to hogsmade,think next year I'll ask both Sev and Luc to go with me."
