I do not own Harry Potter or the characters made by J.K. Rowling
I also added Anneliese's siblings names, ages, how old they'll be turning next when (plus a little bit about them if they're older)
Chapter 1. The Bringing of the Line
Albus looked out of the window of the moving train, the words his dad spoke to him before echoing in his head. He had to get away from his family, they were being overbearing as usual. The door of the compartment opened, he looked over and saw a boy with messy dirty blonde hair and grey-blue eyes. "Oh, s-sorry! I didn't realize it was occupied, I'll go somewhere else." The boy spoke in surprise.
Albus smiled, "It's fine, you can sit in here. I don't really care." There was something about him that seemed familiar to Albus.
"Oh, okay, thanks." He sat down in front of Albus and said, "I'm Scorpius, of course you already know that."
That was why he looked familiar! He's Scorpius Malfoy, Draco Malfoy's son. "I'm Albus and don't worry, took me till you said your name to figure out why you looked familiar."
Scorpius looked surprised, "You-you don't care? I mean, you're a Potter and you don't care, I'm a Malfoy?"
Albus shook his head, "I know we aren't like our parents, besides your dad has changed for the good. No matter what the Prophet says."
Scorpius was about to say something, but the door opened again and a girl with short black hair and purple glasses looked in. "There you are Scor! Valerie and I were getting worried. But like, I don't blame you for getting out." She looked over at Albus and smiled, "Hi! Sorry, I was just looking for him, but um...do you mind if I stay here? The good ole Potter-Weasley clan are being pains." She studied Albus for a second before gasping, "Oh my god! I'm so sorry, I didn't realize you were Albus Potter."
Albus shrugged, "I don't mind and it's okay. My family can be overbearing at times. That's why I'm in here."
She nodded, "Makes since," She sat down next to Scorpius and held her hand out to Albus, "I'm Anneliese Green."
Albus shook her hand, "Nice to meet you Anneliese."
"So, you excited for Hogwarts, Albus?" She asked softly.
"I don't know really. I'm just gonna miss my little sister, Lily." He replied, he really was gonna miss Lils, they were the two biggest troublemakers ever.
"She was the one that was standing next to your parents and was upset because she couldn't go, right?" Albus gave her a surprised look since she has gotten all correct, "I'm observant. I think I'm gonna get into Ravenclaw, but then again, all my family is in Slytherin. So, the likelihood of me being a Slytherin is high. Well, besides my mum, she went to Durmstrang instead."
Scorpius laughed lightly, "You're rambling again. But still, if I'm not in Slytherin I think my grandfather would disown me." Scorpius replied.
"Scorp, your grandfather is Lucius Malfoy, the man who thinks if you're not a Slytherin then you're a disgrace to the wizarding world. It's not think he would, it's just that he just would. No thinking, just knowing." Anneliese told him with a bored look.
"Oh, wow, I think the only house, even though my dad says otherwise, that I would be disowned if I was put in would be Slytherin. But honestly, him and my mother don't care." Albus replied.
The conversation just went from there. They only stopped when the trolly came around and they got some sweets. It was dark and the train was finally slowing down until it came to a full stop. They stood up and walked out of the compartment and off of the train. "Promise to be friends even if we're Slytherins and you're a Gryffindor?" Scorpius asked.
"Promise." Albus replied. He went to find Rose while Anneliese and Scorpius went to find Robyn, Rohyn, Holly and others.
The doors to the great hall opened and everyone walked in. Scorpius and Anneliese overheard Rose Granger-Weasley talking about the ceiling and rolled their eyes, but still looked around in wonder. Albus noticed Anneliese give a tiny wave towards the Slytherin table. They stopped and looked at Professor Longbottom, "Before we start Professor McGonagall would like to say a few words."
Everyone looked over at the lady standing in the middle of the table, "I would like to note for the first years that the Dark Forest is forbidden to go to unless it is for Care of Magical Creatures. That is a class you can choose to take in your third year. Thank you." She sat back down and motioned for Professor Longbottom to begin.
"Now, when I call your name please come up to the sorting hat to be sorted into your house." He looked at the list and said, "Avery, Holly!"
The hat was put on top of his head and yelled, "Slytherin!" Quickly. The Slytherin table was yelling loudly and someone said, "Another Avery! Hell yes!"
More names were yelled, including Robyn and Rohyn Goyle (who were in Slytherin). "Malfoy, Scorpius!" The room went almost dead silent. People began to whisper. 'Malfoy?' 'I'm surprised they're allowing someone like him in.' 'His father was a death eater. He comes from a family of deatheaters' As well as other much harsher things being said. Of course it was known what house Scorpius was going to be in according to stereotypes. And of course stereotypes didn't disappoint. He got Slytherin, and of course, the house screamed for him.
More names were called and people went to their houses. And, just like when Scorpius's name was called, the room went almost dead silent when Albus's. Most of them were praises, 'He looks just like his father!' 'Omg, he's real.' 'Surprised that he's allowed to come, the Potters shield him and his sister all the time.' Of course there were some bad ones, but they were few and far between, mostly just from the Slytherin table. But Albus ignored them and walked up to the hat.
"Ah, a Potter," Albus jumped slightly, the voice echoing through his head, "Much like your father, but you have much more ambition. Want to be separated from being known as just Harry Potter's son. Willing to risk anything to be something. Better be, SLYTHERIN!" The hat was taken off of his head and the whispers picked up again. 'A Potter in Slytherin?' 'Wonder what dear ole James is gonna take of that.'
"Take that Potter! We got your younger brother!" A tall, dark skinned girl with short and curly bright purple hair, her eyes greatly contrasting against her skin as they were being an icy blue.
There were yells coming from the Gryffindor table. They didn't stop until McGonagall yelled for silence. Many had a look of fear, well, only about 50 didn't. Those 20 belonged to the Either a Weasley, Potter, or a Slytherin.
Albus was sitting next to Scorpius. Nothing was said. Rose got into Gryffindor, but of course that was no surprise. "Let the feast, begin." McGonagall lifted her arms and the food appeared. Everyone began to grab as much as they could.
"Congrats sis, you got in. I'm surprised. Figured you'd be in Ravenclaw."
"Yeah, at least father and grandfather won't try and disown you."
Anneliese rolled her eyes, "Oh shut the heck up you two! Besides, father wouldn't disown me. You know that. We don't even talk about what grandfather would do."
"Awe, c'mon-"
"You know you love us."
"Dom! Antonio and Derek are being mean to me!"
Albus looked over to where she was, he was looking at an older guy, who he assumed was probably a 7th year with unruly dirty blonde hair and deep emerald green eyes, looked over at her. "Anneliese, don't make me write to mum about you being a little brat."
"I hate you." She muttered slamming her fork onto the plate.
"Love you too sis."
Albus looked over when he heard a girl laugh, "Stop being a git Dominick. You wouldn't dare write to mum because she's still mad at you for your incident."
"Shut the hell up Genevieve. She's still mad at you for trying to cover it up."
"Would you both shut up? My god, never in my life did I think I would be happy that this is my last year."
"Fuck off Aidan." The two siblings grumbled.
"Sorry 'bout them, they're my siblings." Anneliese sighed and ran a hand through her short hair.
He looked over at her, "It's alright. Since I have like, fifty family members it just reminds me of Christmas."
She smiled softly, "Good."
"You should see them at Christmas, it's horrible. Them, plus the seven younger ones, plus all of the other Slytherin families." Scorpius added with a laugh.
Anneliese picked at her potatoes, "Albus I have 14 siblings. 7 older and 7 younger. 7 sisters and 7 brothers. 6 older brothers, 1 younger. 6 younger sisters and 1 older. Aidan, the one with short light brown hair and dark ass blue eyes, is the oldest. He's 17, 18 in like 8 days, and Headboy. Then there's Antonio and Derek they're 16, they'll be 17 in May. Derek, the one with long black hair and hazel eyes, is always in detention while Antonio, the one with short dirty blonde hair and dark green eyes is usually studying and is usually fairly quiet. He's probably only being a dick tonight because he hasn't eaten since breakfast at 7 am. Dominick is the next in line, he's 15, will be 16 in April and he always brags about something stupid, thinks his shit doesn't stink and that he was the best seeker ever, he also got prefect and hasn't stopped bragging since he got the letter,"
Genevieve laughed, "Mum and dad were proud of him, until he broke the urn that our great-great grandmother was in."
Anneliese laughed too, "Mum threatened to write to McGonagall to make someone else the 5th year Slytherin Prefect."
Albus laughed too, "That sounds like how my Uncle Percy apparently was when he got Gryffindor Prefect, as well as Headboy. According to mum, Uncle Ron, Uncle George, and Uncle Percy himself, he didn't shut up about it and brought it up all the time."
"That amazing, but anyways, next is the second set of twins, Liam and Randolph, they're 13 and will be 14 in October, basically a modern day Fred and George Weasley, always playing pranks and rarely getting caught. We can barely tell them apart, well, I can because Liam is two inches taller at 5'8, plus he talks a bit faster. Then there was Genevieve who is only a year older-"
"10 months sis, 10 months."
She rolled her eyes, "Fine, 10 months older than me. She'll be 13 in December."
"If I didn't know that I could easily assume she was the same age as my little sister, Lily, she's only 9."
"Ha! You just got compared to a 9 year old!" One of the twins said, "I'm Randolph by the way." He reached his hand out to Albus, "Pleasure to meet you Albus Potter. A bunch of us are surprised that you were even allowed to go to Hogwarts. Your parents keep you out of the spotlight so much. Even more than your brother."
Albus shook his hand, "Yeah, mum and dad wanted all of us out of the spotlight as much as possible. Lily and I are faster at running and better at hiding than James. He loves the attention." It was too obvious that Albus was trying to hide his eye roll.
"Can tell. We all got a kick out of him getting knocked out at his first game last year." Albus looked at the other twin, "I'm Liam by the way."
"Oh wow, you're not wrong Anneliese, Liam does speak faster." Liam and Randolph laughed.
"Told ya so. But I still have 7 people to tell you about, if you want?"
"Just give me the ages and when they'll be starting."
She laughed, "Alright. So Alexa and Liana are 10, 11 in November, they start next year. Clara is 8, 9 in October, she starts in 2020. Odette is 7, 8 in like 14 days, she starts in 2021. Elina is 5, 6 next July, she starts in 2023. Eden is 3, 4 in 10 days, she starts in 2025, and Nicholas is 1, 2 in October, he starts in 2027."
"Wow, I could never imagine that many siblings."
"Try being in the middle of it all. It gets annoying how often I'm overlooked." She rolled her eyes, "Of course you're technically in the middle of your siblings." Albus nodded.
"5th year Prefects, show the 1st years to your common room. Everyone head up to your common room, classes start on Monday, but I still expect to see you all tomorrow. Goodnight." Everyone stood up when McGonagall spoke. 1st years unsure of where to go they just followed where the 5th years were telling to go.
"I am Dominick Green, I am your 5th year Prefect."
"I am Elizabeth Boles, your other 5th year Prefect. The Headboy is Aidan Green, he is also the 7th year Slytherin Prefect. Castanova Way is the other 7th year Prefect, and she is Headgirl. Lorene Pansy and Jerimiah Ecerson are your 6th year Prefects for Slytherin house."
They followed as the two of them gave random facts and rules until they stopped at the end of a corridor in the dungeons. "Here is our common room. Yes, it is in the dungeons. If you ever get lost you may find one of us, another Slytherin, or go to our head of house, Professor Slughorn, he is the potions professor as well. Now, it is protected by a password and that password is prone to change, if it does, it will be posted on the bulletin board. But for now the password is Alchemy." As Dominick spoke the words the wall moved to the side and they walked in.
"Here is the common room, we can hang out, do our homework, or just relax in here. Now, to the left is the girls dormitory and to the right is the guys. Girls can go into the guys but the guys cannot go into the girls. You all have a curfew of 6. So don't be out that late." Elizabeth smirked before continuing, "Or just don't get caught."
Dominick sent her an obvious glare, "Or just don't be out. But that is it. Do whatever you feel comfortable. Goodnight."
They left and the crowd dispersed. But Scorpius, Albus, and Anneliese stayed together. "Well, I'm going to bed you two. Goodnight." She walked up the stairs and to the 1st year girls dorm.
Albus and Scorpius looked at each other, "You tired?"
Albus shook his head, "Not really, but let's just head up and hang up there." Scorpius nodded and they went up. Neither went to sleep until 1 am.
