"Come, come! Everyone get their sandwiches!" Molly Weasley called over the sea of red, occasionally dotted with blonde or brown.
"Now, now, mother." Fred smiled, "Let's not baby the Hogwarts students."
"But they're so young and sweet!" Molly grabbed Brooke and pulled her into a huge hug.
"Now, Nana, I refuse to be treated like a child," Benny mimicked his father's smile, "Now give me my good luck hug and kiss before I get on the train." Molly gladly complied kissing all of the older children before reaching Vanessa, Olivia, and Jonathon.
"Look! The sweet little first years, all ready to brave Hogwarts, and all three have parents for teachers." Molly smiled. "Good luck." She kissed each of them in turn and shooed them onto the train. The three children made their way to an empty compartment at the end of the train
Olivia and Vanessa spent the entire trip playing with Olivia's new snitch, and Jonathon spent the time reading, occasionally ducking as one of the girls jumped over him, chasing the gold ball. When they finally arrived, the filed out of the train towards the large shadow they all knew and loved.
"Hagrid!" Vanessa called, smiling up at him.
"Hey, little Potter, you ready for Hogwarts?"
"Why do people keep asking us that?" Olivia smiled, joining her brother and cousin.
"Hogwarts isn't all fun and games y'know." Hagrid laughed.
"Yeah, the castle is plain boring." D.J. smiled, fighting the crowd to get to them.
"Hey, D.J. what are you doing here?" Jonathon asked.
"Dad said that riding the boats was a part of the Hogwarts experience, so he sent me down to ride with you all." All four kids settled down in a boat that Hagrid led them to. The kids talked for a good 10 minutes before they all were struck silent by the view of the large beautiful castle that sat before them. Slowly, the boats drifted into a cave beneath the castle and everyone filed through the dungeons and into the entrance hall where a woman with light purple hair was waiting for them. "Hello little ones." Akane smiled at them, "You're supposed to call me Professor Malfoy, but Akane will do for most of you and Mum for one of you." She smiled at D.J. whose face grew slightly pink as the other 1st years turned to look at him. "If you will follow me, your sorting will begin in a few minutes." All the students filed into the Great Hall. Vanessa smiled at her dad, while Olivia and Jonathon waved to their mum. "Andre, Michael." Akane's voice rang through the hall. Olivia tuned the sorting out, scanning the Gryffindor table for her cousins. Her mind refocused as she heard Akane call out, "Malfoy, Draco Jr."

D.J. gulped as he made his way toward his mother and the sorting hat. He tried to smile at his dad, who was sitting at the staff table, but he couldn't manage it. Sitting on the stool, his mum lowered the hat onto his head.
"Ahh, a Malfoy." A soft voice whispered in his ear, "But, wait, something is different."
I have a muggle mother D.J thought.
"Wow, this is a change. So I assume you wouldn't like to be placed in Pure-Blood Slytherin, then."
No I don't believe so
"Well then how about GRYFFINDOR!"
D.J. smiled timid as his mum lifted the hat off his head. Glancing toward the staff table, he was surprised to see his father smiling and clapping. Next to him, where D.J.'s twin brother and sister, Raven and Chris, were sitting, he saw them standing on their chairs cheering. Slowly he made his way to sit next to Alex. He whispered questions about the Gryffindor common room to Alex before Alex shushed him. D.J. turned back to the sorting just in time to hear, "Potter, Vanessa."

Vanessa stepped forward slowly. Her dad was giving her the thumbs up from the staff table. While she was smiling at her dad, she sat and the hat slipped over her eyes.
"Potter, Potter, You're blood line has given me such trouble."
Trouble? Vanessa thought, How so?
"Well, first there was Gregory Potter, who could've been Hufflepuff or Gryffindor. The James Potter who could've been Ravenclaw or Gryffindor. They good old Harry Potter who could've been Slytherin or Gryffindor…"
Slytherin? My Dad?
"Oh yes, something to do with Voldemort and his scar. Then there was Alex Potter, your brother I believe, Hufflepuff or Gryffindor. And know you. Hmm, Ravenclaw perhaps, or would you like to follow the family line. Oh yes, I think that's best. It'll be GRYFFINDOR!"
Vanessa smiled as the hat was removed. Running to sit across from her brother and D.J., She watched anxiously for her cousin's sorting. After nearly everyone else had been sorted, Finally Jonathon's name was called.

Jonathon whispered quietly to himself as he sat down on the stool.
"Another Weasley? Honestly, how many of you are there?"
Oh you're going to love who comes next
"Oh dear, Alright then, Go join GRYFFINDOR!"
-+-
Olivia made her way to the sorting stool after her brother, barely waiting to let them call her name. She sat down promptly and the hat slipped over her head.
"And another. My goodness, Weasley's are springing up everywhere like weeds! Are their anymore?"
Not this year, no.
"Alright then, go party with GRYFFINDOR!"
Olivia smiled as she slid off the stool and quickly walked toward her brother. After the last girl, 'Zenia, Maria' also joined Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall, the headmistress rose to address the students.
Sorry so long since an update and so short an update! Please don't hurt me, but with HBP drawing nearer, I've been rereading the first 5 books and trying to form ideas for what might come next. I will try to get longer updates I swear, and they should come more frequently. Sorry again!
Please Review for the review addict.
BEK!
