Hogwarts Reunion
Chapter 18 - Off to Hogwarts We Go
*** Three Years Later ***
"Mum, Dad!" Jake ran down the stairs looking for his parents. He looked from left to right when he reached the front landing before running out the front door and into the gardens. He finally saw his parents playing with Junior, Kaida, James and Sirius (who were visiting) and Immy. He had no idea where his other siblings were and at that moment he was to excited to care.
"Mum! Dad! Guess what?" Jake yelled at them as he ran across the yard towards them. They looked up at him concern evident on their faces, they thought that something was wrong until they saw the wide smile on his face and then they noticeably relaxed.
"What is it son?" Draco asked as he swung Junior up into his arms.
"I got my Hogwarts letter! I'm going to Hogwarts!" Hermione gathered him in a warm hug and led him towards the house.
"That is fantastic Jake! Our first to go to Hogwarts! I can't wait to see what house you're sorted into." Hermione gushed as they walked up to the house.
"Were definitely going to have a celebration tonight," came Draco's deep voice from behind them.
"I was thinking about it and I decided that I don't want to be in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw." Said Jake thoughtfully. Hermione had told the children many stories about Hogwarts over the years and when they had stayed at the castle they had learned much about how Hogwarts was run.
"Well you know we will be proud of you no matter what house you are sorted in to. Though, I have to say that I would prefer you to be a Gryffindor rather than a Slytherin." Hermione smiled over at her husband who glared at her, though with no real malice behind it.
"I will just have to send you an owl telling you!" Jake said as he ran off to find his other brothers and sisters to tell them his good news.
*****************************************************************
"Mum, isn't that Jake's owl Devi?" Immy asked. They were all seated at the large dinning table for dinner, and as soon as Immy pointed out the owl Hermione leapt to her feet and threw the window open.
"It's a letter from Jake," Hermione smiled wide and opened the letter eager to read it.
"Read it out loud, love." Draco said as he helped Junior pour a glass of pumpkin juice.
"Ok,
"Dear Dad, Mum, Riles, Robby, Wills, the twins, Trav, Daphne, Lilly, Bell, Tate, Immy Kaida and Junior,
"How is everyone? I know that you are all missing me and I do miss you all. Hogwarts is great. The feast last night was unbelievable, it was even better than the one that we had we came here for the reunion.
"Well I got here safe mum, that was what you wanted me to say wasn't it?
"The sorting here was excellent! I'm not going to tell you the details, you will all find out when you get to come here.
"Now, I guess that you want me to tell you what house I got sorted into. I know that mum and dad have a bet going and I have to say that mum won! I am a Gryffindor.
"Oh, and dad I thought that you said Professor Snape was a good teacher. All he did today in class was yell at us all and take points off of all the Gryffindors. Though, I must point out, he looked at me quite peculiarly when he called out my name. He mentioned something about him never thinking a Malfoy would be a Gryffindor.
"Well I better go now. Snape piled on the homework and it was our first day!! How mean is that? Do you know I never thought that I would be saying this, but mum I am going to miss you teaching me!
"Now don't you all miss me too much, and I will see you at Christmas.
"Lots of Love
"Jake."
P.S. Mum, I am expecting a large care package from you, so you can show me how much you are missing me!"

"Dad!!" Trav and Robby called out. They were looking for their father who was in his potions lab brewing up potions for the Ministry.
"DAD!" they yelled at the top of their lungs. When Draco was brewing his potions he tended to block out the world and the boys had something important to tell him.
Finally they caught his attention and Draco looked up from his work and smiled at them in an absentminded sort of way.
"What's up guys?" he asked.
"Dad, we got our Hogwarts letters." Robby burst out and a focused smile settled over Draco's face.
"Well I guess we better go and find your mother and her the good news.
*** In another part of the Malfoy Manor ***
"Mum," Daphne said quietly. Hermione looked up from the letter that she was writing to Ginny.
"What is it love?" she asked. Daphne was still a reserved and quiet girl, but she had opened up a lot in the years that she had lived with Hermione and the two of them often could be found in corners of the manor in deep but hushed discussions.
"I received my Hogwarts letter by owl a few moments ago." She said and Hermione smiled and gathered her into a big hug.
"That is fantastic news! I guess Robby and Trav got theirs as well, lets go look for them. No doubt they are trying to rouse your father from his potion making so that he can give them some attention!" The two shared a knowing smile and met up with the males on the second landing of the house.
*****************************************************************
"You know the house is going to feel empty without all the kids here." Draco said wistfully as they sat in bed the night before three more of their children were going to Hogwarts.
"That is true, but they do make up for it in the holidays. I must admit I do like Jake's friends Xavier, Jovan, Faith and Serenity"
"My son is starting early, already inviting girls to the Manor." He said this with a proud sort of smile on his face and Hermione swatted his arm.
"You are a hopeless case Draco Malfoy! I am going to go check on Daphne I know that she was a little anxious today and I just want to see how she is doing."
Hermione tiptoed down the hall where the children slept so that she didn't wake anyone. When she reached Daphne's door she noticed the candle light underneath her door so she gave a soft knock and entered her bedroom.
"Can't sleep?" Hermione asked softly.
"No, I'm a little nervous about tomorrow." At the end of Daphne's bed was her trunk neatly packed and on the floor next to it was the cage ready for her cat Salem to be bundled into in the morning.
"You will be fine at Hogwarts, Daph. It is such a wonderful school. And you will love the library; the books in there are amazing."
"I know that mum, but what if," she sighed, "what if no one likes me? What if I don't make any friends?" Hermione leaned in to hug her.
"Oh I wouldn't worry about that, darling. You are a wonderful person and I know that you will make lots of friends. It took me a little while but I ended up with two of the best friends that I will ever have." Hermione leaned over and gave Daphne a hug before tucking her in. "Now I think that it is time for you to get some sleep, you will see everything will work out tomorrow."
With that Hermione left Daphne who quickly fell asleep, reassured by her mother's words.
*****************************************************************
Dear Mum, Dad, Immy, Riles, Wills, the twins, Lilly, Bell, Tate, Kaida and Junior,
Robby and Trav were going to write to you separately but they thought that since I was writing to you all anyway that I should include them in this one.
Mum, I have to say Hogwarts is amazing. The library is quite extensive and I am rereading Hogwarts; A History. I have also made two friends, Mia and Julius. Mia and I share a dorm room.
Well I know that you are anxious to see which houses that we were sorted into, I know that mum and dad both placed bets again this year, so I shan't keep you in suspense any longer. Robby is a proud new Gryffindor as is Trav. I am a Ravenclaw and I must say I am quite please about it. Though part of me is disappointed that I am not in the same house as the boys, Ravenclaw house already feels like home.
It is late now and I want to get a good night's sleep before classes start tomorrow.
I miss you all already and I am looking forward to getting loads of owls from you all.
Love
Daphne
P.S. Trav forgot his Dragonhide gloves at home and asks if you could please send them.
P.P.S. Robby forgot his copy of Quidditch through the Ages and wants to know if you could please send that to him.
P.P.P.S. Jake has also forgotten all of his socks and asks you to send them to him, please.
P.P.P.P.S. I never realized how hopeless those boys were! Honestly!

"Mum, don't cry!" Riles said looking around, highly embarrassed by his mothers emotional display. Hermione and Draco stood on platform 9 and ¾'s there to see off Riles and Wills. They were on their way to Hogwarts.
"Your mother can't help it, just give her a hug and board the train and I will take care of her." Hermione was happy for her boys to be going to Hogwarts but she was sad to see them go. Every year the Manor got a little emptier and while she still had the younger ones at home, the Manor was quieter. Thank Merlin for the holidays, then the Manor would be bursting at the seams with all the children and their friends.
"Promise me that you will behave and write?" Hermione asked each of them. They both swore that they would and quickly boarded the train with their older siblings.
*****************************************************************
Dear Mum, Dad, Taylah, Kaylah, Tate, Lilly, Bell, Immy, Kaida and Junior,
This is just a quick note because I don't want to be late to potions, I got sorted into Gryffindor and so did Wills. It seems like we are starting a tradition, the only odd one out is Daphne but she suits Ravenclaw so that is good.
Well gotta go. I think that I forgot a set of my robes at home mum, think that you could send them along?
Miss you all, and write soon!
Riles.
*** One Year Later ***
Dear Mum, Dad, Lilly, Bell, Immy, Kaida and Junior,
Hogwarts is great! I don't think that they should make you wait till you are eleven to come here. This school is fantastic! Kaylah and I have had the best fun and this is our first night here.
We were sorted into Gryffindor. Well, were you expecting anything less! Even Tate was sorted in here, though it took ages for him to be sorted. I thought that the hat had fallen asleep on his head it took so long!
Well because Tate was taking his time Kaylah and I decided to make things a little more exciting. I tell you that Dumbledore is a great mean, top wizard. He laughed at us when the frog we conjured jumped right into his glass of pumpkin juice. Told us we reminded him of another set of twins that went to Hogwarts. Do you think that he was talking about Uncle George and Uncle Fred?
Yeah I think that we are going to love life here at Hogwarts, there is so much potential here!
Well I have to go now. Hugs to everyone and don't forget to write!
Lots of Love
Taylah
P.S. The boys have forgotten so much stuff again, can you just go through their rooms and send along anything that you think that they might need? Thanks.
*** One Year Later ***
Dear Dad, Mum, Bell, Immy, Kaida and Junior,
Hogwarts is the best! Everything is amazing, I really can't believe some of the things that I have found. Uncle Harry's class is my favorite class so far. Defense Against the Dark Arts is the most useful subject by far. I'm learning heaps and I am tempted to try out some of the jinxes that I have learnt on Zachary. He is the most evil, spoilt, mean-spirited git that I have ever met. It figures that he is from Slytherin (sorry dad!).
Oh if you're wondering I am a proud Gryffindor. Now mum I know you are going to tell me not to hex Zachary and I am really trying not to but we have almost all of our classes together and he is always being mean to me. My new friends Nico and Damien stand up for me so that helps.
Well I have a stack of extra homework to do thanks to Professor Snape so I have to go now.
Don't miss me too much! Lilly
*** One Year Later ***
Dear Dad, Mum, Kaida and Junior,
Bell and I were sorted today. Bell is a Gryffindor and I am a Slytherin. Who would have thought it? It feels strange to be in a different house to everybody else, especially when Gryffindor and Slytherin are rivals. Dad you must be happy to know that you are finally going to beat mum for once!
I miss you all, and sorry that this is so short, but I want to have breakfast before classes and I want to shock everyone by going to the Gryffindor table and having a civil conversation with them. Do you think anyone will die of a heart attack? One can only hope.
Maybe that is why I was sorted into Slytherin.
I miss you all already, write heaps!
Immy.
*** Three Years Later ***
Dear Mum, Dad and Junior,
How are you all? Missing me? I know you are! Hehe. Hogwarts is a little different than I expected, but a good different. Professor Dumbledore is a brilliant wizard, he was a substitute for my Transfiguration class, and while Professor McGonagall is a cleaver witch I learnt so much with Dumbledore. I think that I am the only Slytherin besides Immy that thinks he is a great wizard.
A part of me is sad that all fourteen of the Malfoy children could not attend Hogwarts together, but it is good that Jake is here teaching Care of Magical Creatures. Hagrid deserves his semi-retirement, and it is easier for me to go and visit with him. I think that Immy and I are the only two Slytherins to do that as well.
James and Sirius are both Gryffindors, but how could they not be, with their parents being who they are? Another first for me, I am the only Slytherin to have two best friends that are Gryffindors. I love shocking people when we walk down the halls together.
I have a large pile of homework surrounding me so I best get around to doing it.
Junior, you are going to love it here when you come next year!
Buckets of Love
Kaida
P.S. Mum, I think that I forgot to pack my scarf so could you please send it to me, winter is rapidly approaching. I can't wait for Christmas!
*** One Year Later ***
Dear Mum and Dad,
I am the last of the Malfoy's to go to Hogwarts, and the sorting hat and I had an interesting discussion before he sorted me. He thought that Kaida and I were both quite strange given our parents and he had a difficult time placing me. He finally decided on Gryffindor, he thought that I was more like my mother than my father. I'm not to sure about that but I do like being a Gryffindor. Kaida showed me where the Slytherin common room and dorms are and I must say I am glad to be in Gryffindor tower: much warmer.
I was thinking of trying out for the Quidditch team, though first years never make it, I am the right size for a seeker and well, you never know. They made an exception for Uncle Harry, they may make one for me.
Well tryouts are in a couple of hours and I want to get as much practice as possible before then.
Love
Junior

A/N: Hey guys! Well I must admit I am a little sad, there is only one more chapter to go!! The next chapter will be the last of Hogwarts Reunion! :( I have to say I am going to miss writing this story, but I think that it has run its course. So there will be no sequel. Having said that I was thinking about making a spin off type of story regarding the children or one of them at least but it is still an idea. Let me know what you think!
Oh I hope that you didn't think that this chapter was tedious but I felt that it had to be done!
A special thank you to Danika, Katie, Hermione182, Jenny and Meg for giving me name ideas for the kids friends! So a big thank you to you all! :)
This chapter is dedicated to...

Dear Mum and Dad,
I am the last of the Malfoy's to go to Hogwarts, and the sorting hat and I had an interesting discussion before he sorted me. He thought that Kaida and I were both quite strange given our parents and he had a difficult time placing me. He finally decided on Gryffindor, he thought that I was more like my mother than my father. I'm not to sure about that but I do like being a Gryffindor. Kaida showed me where the Slytherin common room and dorms are and I must say I am glad to be in Gryffindor tower: much warmer.
I was thinking of trying out for the Quidditch team, though first years never make it, I am the right size for a seeker and well, you never know. They made an exception for Uncle Harry, they may make one for me.
Well tryouts are in a couple of hours and I want to get as much practice as possible before then.
Love
Junior

A/N: Hey guys! Well I must admit I am a little sad, there is only one more chapter to go!! The next chapter will be the last of Hogwarts Reunion! :( I have to say I am going to miss writing this story, but I think that it has run its course. So there will be no sequel. Having said that I was thinking about making a spin off type of story regarding the children or one of them at least but it is still an idea. Let me know what you think!
Oh I hope that you didn't think that this chapter was tedious but I felt that it had to be done!
A special thank you to Danika, Katie, Hermione182, Jenny and Meg for giving me name ideas for the kids friends! So a big thank you to you all! :)
This chapter is dedicated to...
Draco-FutureBF - Thanks so much!! :)
Trinka - I tell you what, when I start my new story if you're interested you can be the beta for my new story!
Meg - I think that you may be right...
Jenny - Ta!! I am going to write a new story after this, in fact I have already started it!
TellAllYourFriends - Thanks so much!
Rodrigo - Hey! Thanks, as always, I loved the e-mail!
Captain Oblivious - I don't think that Harry and Ginny are going to be happy with you from pinching their children! :)

Kirbee Angel - Thanks!! :)
Angelina Malfoy - Hey! How's things? Thanks for the review, my new story is under way but I wont start posting it till I have finished this story, besides it needs heaps of work! Ta!
