Harry and Hermione sat in the common room for 20 minutes before Harry could
bring himself to let her finish reading Marionie Hearts' biography. He was
shocked, this was to much. He listened as Hermione continued reading.

"This reason is because she comes from a long line of powerful witches and wizards that include: Auroras, Healers, Mages, and even Hogwarts very own Albus Dumbledore. Through many recent test it has been found (undisclosed to Miss Hearts) she is a cousin of Harry Potter, The Boy Who Lived."
Hermione closed the book looking up at Harry. "Harry? Are you alright?"
Harry closed his eyes. Within the year he had found out he was a wizard and would be attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, His parents had been killed by the infamous Voldemort, and he himself had been the down fall of the dark wizard. No he was finding out he had a cousin… "Yes, Hermione. I'm fine. I have a cousin…"

"Marionie, you need to get up. The train will be leaving to take you to Westminster soon. You're already behind." Marionie rolled over in her bed and looked at the clock. Once again she was late. The clocks bright red numbers now read '10:15 A.M.' the train would be leaving in about two hours.
Getting up Marionie pulled on a pair of muggle jeans that she loved, the sweater that Jeremy had just gotten her for Christmas, and the ring that she had received from Michael. Yawning she walked down the stairs of the large house she lived in bare-footed. "I'm coming."
It had been exactly two weeks since Marionie had found out that she was being moved to England. She was getting excited, but was still angry with her parents for not telling her earlier. Her father had shown her a picture of the house they had bought. It was an actual mansion. Marionie thought it looked beautiful but wasn't sure she would like it.
The entrance too the house were two large silver doors with glass handle 'Only you father' was what she had told him. The lawn were green and very lush with a beautiful garden and lots of room. Marionie thought it was the most beautiful home she had ever seen. Though she still did love the home she was in now.
"Good morning Miss Marionie." Marionie stopped at the sound of her butlers voice, and smiled happily.
"Good morning Mulic!" Marionie ran giving Mulic a big hug. "Comment allez- vous Mulic?" Marionie caught a glimpse of Mulic's smile as she spoke French.
"Oh, French is it?" Bien Marionie. Et toi?" Mulic was now leading Marionie into the dinning area of their small flat smiling.
"Ca va bien." Marionie giggled at sat down in her chair on the right side of her father. "I'm going to miss you this term Mulic. Especially when Michael and Jeremy find out I am moving."
"It will be alright Miss Marionie. They'll understand. I'll create a duplicate of the port so they can visit you on you Headmistress's permission." Mulic was always so kind to her friends.
"Actually Mulic… Hogwarts has a Headmaster. They have a Deputy Headmistress." Marionie smiled. She had finally realized where she had heard about Hogwarts. "Did you know that Harry Potter goes to Hogwarts?"
Marionie had pulled out an old dusty book from among her plentiful sets of Charm books. She had gotten it for her birthday last year. It was called 'Hogwarts a History' she had decided it would be a good time to brush up on this school she would be going to. When she started reading it clicked. She remembered learning that Harry Potter now attended Hogwarts.
"Yes, I did know that." Mulic walked away from the table leaving Marionie to get ready to go back to Westminster. Marionie shrugged her shoulders and began to eat the croissant that had been left for her.

Harry sat at the Gryffindor table completely shocked. He had family, a rich cousin in France. He looked at Dumbledore who seemed to be discussing something with Professor McGonagall. Suddenly Harry heard the owls swooping into the great hall. He looked around just as Hedwig flew to him dropping a letter in his lap. He picked it up and opened it.
"Harry, it is of great importance that you come to my office today after breakfast. We have some things to discuss.
"Professor McGonagall"
Harry showed it to Hermione and Ron. Ron had known about Harry's cousin for about an hour now. Sighing Harry finished his breakfast and headed out of the Great Hall towards Professor McGonagall's office in the Transfiguration corridor.
Waiting outside of her door, Harry watched a very flushed Professor McGonagall walk towards him. She opened the door and let Harry in. "Please Harry, take a seat." She bustled around her desk seating herself into her large armchair. "Now Harry, this is very important…"
"Professor? Is this about my… my…" Harry took in a deep breath closing his eyes. He reopened them calmly looking at his professor, "my cousin?"
"You know about your cousin Harry?" Professor McGonagall looked at Harry questionably.
"I had a dream professor… a horrible dream. I saw her name and… and…" Harry tried to replay the dream in his head. Surely enough it was the same green light he recalled… he did not hear the screaming but it was definitely green light. "I think something is going to happen to her."
"Well, I don't think that will happen Harry. Her family is moving here. I do not want you to inform you cousin that she is so. Professor Dumbledore must first tell her she is his niece. She has a lot to learn and I don't think telling her she is related to Harry Potter is a good idea. Is this understood Harry?" Professor McGonagall gave Harry her stern look.
"Yes professor, I understand." Harry nodded his head. "May I go to class now professor?"
"Yes Harry, you may go." Professor McGonagall motioned to the door and began going over some papers. Harry left and headed out for the first lesson of the day.

Marionie walked next to her mother and father, smiling ready to head back to Westminster. Under her arms she carried two parcels. Each of them containing a copy of the Hearts' personal portal controls. Marionie had read that you got on the Hogwarts Express (which was most like the Westminster Express) by going through a wall-dividing platform 9 and 10. Which was a intriguing way of getting on a train.
To get on the train to Westminster you simply showed a silver ticket to the woman in the ticket booth (usually a witch) and walked through an invisible door. Marionie had a feeling she would like the Hogwarts Express if that is how you got on it. Marionie pulled out her silver ticket showing it to the woman at the ticket counter and walked through the door smiling. "Mum, dad, I'm going to go find Michael and James."
With that Marionie left the safety of her parents and ran onto the train. She ran back to the compartment that they normally sat in. When she opened the door she was met by a horrible surprise.
