Harry Potter and the Cavern of Dreams
~Chapter three~
It was a photo! The picture showed a boy, in his late teens smiling and waving at the camera. At the bottom, an angel proclaimed:
Riverlaun Potter. Aged 19 today.
So it was a fairly recent picture. She studied her cousin more closely. He had dark hair, green eyes and a cheeky grin, a grin that reminded her of someone…
Suddenly realization hit her. "Harry's dad is my cousin?" she gasped. "But it can't be. His name is James!"
Although the documents had previously had a time gap, the document she pulled out next cleared up the confusion over the last scroll.
This is to certify that Riverlaun Danaan Potter
Has officially changed his name within the confines of the law
To James Daniel Potter.

Arwen shrieked, then breathed a sigh of relief. 'It can't be Harry's father, then. His dad died 17 years ago.' It must just be a huge coincidence.
The next thing she pulled out of the box was a roll of parchment. She unrolled it, and found it to be a letter. The handwriting was elegant, and strangely familiar…
31st October 1990
Dear Mrs Illusen,
I am writing to you about your daughter, Arwen. As you know, your family is renowned for it's magical talent, and we believe that Arwen may be the most powerful enchantress ever born. She needs the right training, and we at Hogwarts believe that we can provide that. As the heir of Gryffindor, there is, as always, a prophecy. I believe it has something to do with a certain redhead born a few months ago, but we cannot be sure. The prophecy will be completed when the girl is sixteen. I am afraid it involves her having a child, but, as always, there is a counter-prophecy. But the true prophecy clearly states that the child could mean the demise of Voldemort, and as you are in the Order, I am sure you will understand that this child, and her child, may be our only hope. I am sorry.
Yours faithfully,
Albus Dumbledore
Arwen dropped the letter, stunned.

A/N: I know no-one's probably reading this, as no-one ever reads Author's Notes, but I need someone's opinion. I posted this story with a James/Hermione in mind, but I think it might turn out as a Draco/Hermione… I don't know! I need your opinion!
