Legal Jargon: I bow down to J.K. Rowling's feet and beg for her forgiveness
as I take her characters from behind her back and use it in this story:
Harry, Hermione, Ron, Luna, Ginny, (and although I'd hate to say it) Draco
and some other characters are not mine!
But their offspring in this story and some minor characters are all MINE! MINE! MHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

The Haunting Past
Platform 9 ¾ was jam packed with parents, Hogwarts' students and to-be Hogwarts students. Out of the many people there a few selected groups of people stand out the most.
Raven clutched her trolley tightly. Nervousness swept through her as she tried desperately to calm down. Her new heavy school robes were making her sweat even more as it is. She ran a hand though her mid-length untamable bushy black hair that was half tied up in a semi ponytail as she tried to calm herself down. Her new pet owl, Elsu, was also in an excited mood as he hoots loudly in his beautiful golden cage.
Raven felt wheezy for a minute as the scar on her forehead throbbed like crazy. This usually happens when she is feeling strong emotions. She turned around to her parents for some comfort. Her father, Harry Potter, smiled at her with warmth and so did her mother, Hermione Granger.
"You look like you're going to die if you get on that train, dear." Said Harry.
Hermione nodded.
"But don't worry, dear, the train doesn't leave for another half and hour."
Raven just gave an uneasy smile. She admired her parents a lot, and who wouldn't? Her dad was the famous Harry Potter who destroyed the Dark Lord a number of years ago and her mother graduated the top of her year back in her days at school.
Rubbing her birthmark gently, she turned back to look at the platform to observe her soon-to-be schoolmates. Out of the thousands of people she saw a particular young boy caught her eye. A boy with loose, short, platinum blonde hair and white pale skin. His cold grey eyes was staring at the ground as a man, who looked exactly like him but older and with longer and more greased up hair, was talking to him with no expression what so ever. It appeared as thought the man was his father. The older man was well dressed, and I mean really well dressed and so was his wife whose fiery- ginger red hair was in a neat tight bun and was in a beautiful silk long dress with an expensive fur coat draped around her shoulders.
'Wait a minute.' thought Raven as she searched her mind for something she has seen before. 'I know her. think Raven. where have you seen her?'
Her train of thought was interrupted when she heard a loud familiar voice behind her.
"Harry! Hermione!" exclaimed the voice. It was Ronald Weasley, her parents' long time close friend.
"Ron." Said Harry in a cheerful tone and gave him a big brotherly hug. Hermione also greeted him with a warm hug. Ron hadn't changed much in the few years that they hadn't seen each other. Business commitments on both sides meant that spare times were rarely available. He still had that trademark Weasley red hair and freckles that randomly bombard his fair skin. He was more well-built, compared to when her was still in Hogwarts, but let's face it, all of them grew into their own skin rather well.
Standing next to Ron was Luna Weasley, formerly Lovegood. She was dangerously pregnant, which meant it appeared as though her baby was going to pop out right this minute.
"Uncle Ron. Auntie Luna." Raven said politely. They both gave her a nice grin.
"Well, well, well. Little Raven. All big now aren't we?" noted Ron. "Haven seen you since your sixth birthday. That's an awfully long time. Do you still remember the twins?"
Raven cocked her head in confusion. Yes, it had been a long time and she vaguely remembers two kids about her age with red hair and freckles at her sixth birthday party.
"I don't think I remember." Answered Raven truthfully, feeling a bit embarrassed.
Luna just smiled.
"It's okay. Now, where are those children?" said Luna as she scanned the platform. "BAYARD! MILDRED!"
Raven turned to see two red-haired siblings advance towards her direction. One of them was a rather handsome young boy with red partially spiked hair and a hint of freckles on his nose. The other was a girl that was almost identical to the boy but with longer hair and more feminine features. She also had blue eyes instead of light brown.
The boy smiled at Raven sheepishly and stretched his right hand out.
"Hi." He said in an awkward manner. "I'm Bayard. Bayard Scott Weasley."
Raven returned a smile and attempted to make him feel more comfortable. She took his hand and shook it gently.
"I'm Raven Jane Potter. Pleasure to meet you."
Bayard blushed. "Hehe, I know who you are. I mean, who wouldn't? And I still remember you. I went to one of your birthday's."
Bayard still spoke with embarrassment and it agitated his sister quite a bit.
"Ignore my brother's shyness." The girl said as she too stretched out her right hand. "I'm Mildred, his twin sister but we're nothing alike. And please, just call me Millie." She seemed much more outgoing than her brother, which made Raven instantly warm up to her. She took her hand and shook it.
At this point, the adults were in their own conversation and so were the kids. It was then that she remembered the thought she had earlier. She subtly glanced around to see if the fair haired boy and his family were still there. They were, which lead back to Raven's original train of thought.
Her curiosity drive overloaded and she was unable to rest until answers were found. She temporarily broke off the conversation she had with the Weasley twins before she interrupted the adults conversation to ask her parents a question.
"Mom, dad. I think I have seen that person before. I think it was in one of your photo albums. Do you know who she is?" She then pointed to the direction of the red haired lady. At that point, the all the adults focused their attention toward the lady. Their faced suddenly went dull as Ron's expression could only be described as pure hatred.
"What are they doing here?!" he exclaimed, his face still contorted in rage. Even the twins were looking at that particular direction.
"Daddy," started Mildred in a suspicious tone. "Isn't that. Aunt Ginny?"
Ron's face twitched at that name.
"Yes. it is dear." he answered forcefully.
The lady, Ginny, as though feeling eyes boring into the back of her head, turned to the sight of many familiar and curious faces. Lost in her own thoughts for a moment as she stared at her old family, she was knocked back to reality with a slight nudge from her husband. The others could see her husband questioning her in the distance. After a while, it could be seen that the man turned also to see the blank and angry faces. He just smirked, snaked a hand around Ginny's waist and pulled her closer. Anyone that didn't know about the Malfoy's could mistake this gesture as one of compassion, but to those who know, it was just to spite someone, in this case, the former Hogwarts Dream Team plus one (Luna). A mixed expression could be seen on Ginny's face.
"That bastard!" exclaimed Ron through clenched teeth. The rest of the adults just turned away from them, now silent.
Raven now recognized the lady. Virginia Weasley, the only sister of Uncle Ron, also married to. Draco Malfoy, the multi-millionaire of the Wizarding and Muggle world. No wonder they looked so familiar. She remembered what her parents said before, on how when Ginny decided to marry Draco Malfoy, her whole famly freaked and disowned her. Afterwards, they all lost contact with her and they blame Malfoy for this. Said he cast a spell on Ginny so that he controlled her, but Raven thought that that was highly doubtful. It could have just been true love, couldn't it?
Raven's attention was now turned back to the grey-eyed boy, who was now also looking at her. Cold shivers ran down her spine and she didn't know why.
"And that's their son, right?" asked Raven, a question open to anyone who could answer.
Ron grunted.
"Disgusting blonde hair, hideous grey eyes and a skin tone that defies being human? I suppose he is. If it weren't for him having a bit of Ginny in him, I'd already be in the toilets throwing up!"
"Don't be so mean Ron," said Luna as she patted him in the shoulder. "It's not his fault that he has an imbecile as a father."
The Hogwarts Express was fuming wildly as a whistle emitted, telling all the students to get on board. Tear stained faced departed from their parents as they got on board. Raven gave her parents a kiss goodbye before boarding the train like the rest of the children. The doors closed and the train advanced to its home, Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry.
To Be Continued.
Next Chapter: So the children are going to Hogwarts now, what do their parents think?
Author's Note: This chapter is so dragged out but I had to introduce the characters properly. Anyways, R&R but I'm a very sensitive person (LOL) so please, go easy on any flames!
But their offspring in this story and some minor characters are all MINE! MINE! MHAHAHAHAHAHA!!
