I thought of this the other day and rather like the idea. I hope you do too!
I know this has probably been done several times, or something of the sort, and it's probably not different like everyone else says theirs is…but…just read it. If you like it, then YAY, if you don't, tell me why.
But first I should probably explain some things:
Neville is the boy who lived except…he didn't live. He was killed by Voldemort, but somehow took Voldemort with him. HOWEVER Harry was made into a Horcrux. Voldemort used Neville's death for the Horcrux. Lily and James refused to have him "destroyed" in hopes that a better way would come about to get the soul out of Harry. Harry is just as famous as Neville, although everybody just thought that he helped get rid of Voldemort. Harry has two younger sisters, Trillium, a year younger than him, and Rose, 5 years younger than him. Sirius Black married a girl named Keely and they had a daughter the same age as Harry named Haille. Remus Lupin married a girl named Emily and they had two kids, a daughter the same age as Harry named Emily, and a son a year younger named Logan. Hermione has a little brother, a year younger than her, named Leo. Peter did betray the Potter's to Voldemort but he was caught and put in Azkaban, the little wanker…ahem…I think that's all the information you need…This story starts off in Harry's second year, Trillium's first.
Disclaimer: you recognize it I don't own it…
"Mummy, I got a letter from Hogwarts!" 11 year old Trillium cried at breakfast as the family owl, Erelah, dropped said letter on her lap. Trillium ripped open the parchment envelope and pulled out the contents so fast she almost ripped the letter.

Trillium squealed in a high pitched voice as her mother hugged her.
"What's all the noise for!" Harry asked as he came into the kitchen
"Hogwarts letters have arrived" 7 year old Rose said without looking up from her Cheerios.
"Oh cool. Where's mine?" Harry asked. Rose pointed. Harry picked it up and looked at the booklist, his father looking over his shoulder.
"What's with all the Gilderoy Lockhart books!" Harry asked.
"New Defense teacher must be a fan." James shrugged.
"Well, we'd better go to Diagon Alley today and get your books!" Lily said.
"Mommy, can I go to Hogwarts to?" Rose asked
"Not yet, sweetie. You have to be 11. You're 7. You still have 4 years to wait." Lily said with a smile.
"But I want to go NOW!" Rose yelled as she stomped upstairs. Harry and Trill looked at each other and went running off after her.
"Rose!"
"Rose, come back!" Harry and Trill found Rose sitting in the linen closet fuming.
"Rosie, what are you doing in there?" Trill asked, adopting the childhood nickname for her baby sister.
"I'm staying in here 'till I can go to Hogwarts too!" Rose replied, her lisp more pronounced through her anger.
"Surely you can't do that! You'll miss out on 4 years of fun, with Mum and Dad and all your friends!" Harry exclaimed.
"No I won't. I'll have fun in here by myself 'till Mummy and Daddy take me to Hogwarts!" Rose said defiantly.
"How will you eat?" Trill asked as she sat down next to Rose in the closet, putting her arm around her sister.
"Erm…I won't." Rose said, a little unsurely. "Just leave me alone!"
"Okay…if that's really what you want. Do you want the door closed?" Harry asked.
"Yes. No please leave." Rose commanded. Harry waited for Trillium to climb out of the closet before closing the door softly. The walked back to the kitchen, but had made it no farther than the top of the stairs when Rose came bursting out of the closet, tears streaming down her face.
"Rosie! What's wrong?" Trill asked, bewildered, as she scooped her sister into a big hug.
"The lemming laughed at me!" Rose cried into Trill's shoulder. "I hope there aren't any lemmings at Hogwarts" she mumbled. Harry and Trill smiled at each other. Their sister's fear was unexplainable and complete. Nobody even knew where she'd heard of a lemming from.
Harry picked up Rose and carried her back down to the kitchen where their parents were. Lily and James rushed over when they saw their youngest in tears. Harry handed her to his Mom and sat down next to Trill and poured himself a bowl of Cheerios.
"So, Trill, excited about Hogwarts?" Harry asked.
"Of course I am! Why wouldn't I be? I finally get to learn how to do magic! I've waited for this my entire life!" Trill said with a big grin.
"It's not all easy you know. You have to write essays and memorize spells and large amounts of homework in small amounts of time." Harry said knowledgably.
"Wait 'till you get older. Trust me." James said from the living room where a sad looking Rose was being comforted with a book by her Mother.
"Does it get harder?" Harry asked.
"By far. Wait until you have to write your OWLs and NEWTs." James said dramatically, leaning on the doorframe.
"Are they hard?" Trill asked.
"Oh yeah. They'll have you writing 89 essays a week! They'll start piling on the homework in Fourth year and it won't stop until you graduate." James said. "I sure hope you guys like homework."
"Are you kidding me?" Trill asked, dumbfounded. "89 essays a week? That's not physically possible!"
"Well, if you think about it, if you didn't have classes and you didn't eat or sleep, you could probably do it. So it is physically possible. It's improbable however." Harry reasoned.
"Oh shush up, you." Trill said angrily as she went to put her empty bowl in the sink. James went back to the living room chuckling at the logic of his children.
"Mummy, may I get a wand?" Rose whispered to her mother as Trill tried out wand after wand in Ollivander's Wand Shop in Diagon Alley.
"No, sweetie. Not right now. Now shh." Lily whispered back to her daughter. All of a sudden green and gold sparks flew out of the end of a wand in Trill's hand.
"Ah good choice. 10½ inches, Ebony, Unicorn tail core. Good for Charmwork." Mr. Ollivander said as he boxed Trill's wand. Lily paid for it while beaming at her daughter.
Lily and the girls met James and Harry coming out of Gringotts.
"Where to now?" James asked.
"Flourish and Blotts. Let's get our books." Harry said.
As they approached the book store they noticed a commotion inside. Stepping inside a brawl between Mr. Weasley and Mr. Malfoy was in full swing. Lily grabbed her children and pulled them over to the stairs and out of the way. Trill looked around to see who else was in the book store. She noticed one of her best friends, Ginny Weasley, was standing out of the way of the brawl next to her brother Ron, Harry's best friend. She looked at Harry who had also noticed the two Weasleys. Harry and Trill made their way through a sea of fallen books to their best friends.
"Hey, Gin. What's going on?" Trill asked.
"Well, we were just leaving when Lucius Malfoy walked in and started insulting us. Called us poor and blood traitors and what-not. Dad flipped. That simple really." Ginny explained. They looked back at the brawl where it appeared Hagrid had pulled apart Lucius Malfoy and Mr. Weasley.
"Here, girl. Take your book. It's the best your father can give you." Malfoy said, throwing Ginny's books back into her cauldron. Ginny glared back at him, tears in her brown eyes.
"Don't listen to him Ginny. He just jealous." Trill said reassuringly.
"I don't think he is, Trill. But whatever." Ginny said turning around wiping her eyes.
"Harry, Ron! Guess what!" Hermione Granger said as she ran over from the door. She had clearly missed the brawl.
"What is it, 'Mione?" Harry asked.
"My little brother, Leo, is coming to Hogwarts this year!" Hermione said happily as she pulled her brother over to the group. Leo had a mop of brown curly hair that came down and almost covered his clear blue eyes. His cheeks were lightly freckled. He was tall and skinny.
"Hi Leo. I'm Harry Potter." Harry said with a smile.
"I'm Ron Weasley." Ron said happily.
"I'm Trillium Potter." Trill said sweetly.
"I'm Ginny Weasley." Ginny said.
"Hi." Leo said, almost shyly.
"Well we've got to get our books, so we'll see you on the train, if not sooner, okay?" Hermione said as she grabbed Leo's hand and pulled him farther into the bookstore. Trillium looked back over at the door and saw two of her best friends walking in.
"Emily, Haille! Over here!" Trill called. Emily Lupin and Haille Black were both a year older than her, but they had known each other their entire lives.
"Hey Trill, everybody. What's up?" Emily asked, brushing her straight brown hair out of her eyes.
"Nothing much. How 'bout you two?" Ron asked.
"We've spent the day together, getting our stuff." Haille replied.
"Ron, Ginny, let's go!" Mrs. Weasley called from the door.
"See you guys later." Ginny and Ron said as they left.
"Hey, Em, where's Logan? He's starting at Hogwarts too this year, isn't he?" Trill asked.
"Logan? Erm…I'm not sure where he is. Haille and I ditched the parentals hours ago. He's probably still with them." Emily replied.
"Yeah, he is. They're here now." Harry said, pointing to the door where Sirius Black, his wife Keely, Remus Lupin, his wife Emily, and their son Logan had just walked in.
"Okay, kids, got your books, and managed to get them without having Lockhart sign them too!" James said, coming out of nowhere with his arms full of books.
"Hey Prongs! When did you become a butler?" Sirius laughed as he walked up to one if his best friends.
"About 2 minutes ago. Where are your kids?" Lily asked.
"I don't know. We've got Logan, but Haille and Emily ditched us hours ago." Remus answered.
"Speaking of which, where is Logan?" Emily asked her husband. The Marauders and their wives looked around until they found all 6 of their kids standing by the stairs talking.
"Well would you look at that! It's all the Mini Marauders in one place! When was the last time we saw that?" Sirius said loudly as he walking over to their kids.
"It was 5 days ago at Logan's birthday barbeque, Uncle Sirius. Jeez. Get with the program." Trill said without skipping a beat.
"She's got a point." James said with a sanctimonious little nod.
"Yes, well. Does that leave anything else to get?" Lily asked, consulting the booklists of her children.
"Can I get a pet, mom?" Trill asked.
"What kind of pet?" Lily asked.
"A cat. I've always wanted a cat." Trill said eagerly.
"Okay. Let's head on down to the Magical Menagerie." Lily said and they left their friends and the bookstore.
Half an hour later, the Potter family walked out of the Magical Menagerie, Trill holding a purring tortoiseshell kitten named Henry. The Potter family left Diagon Alley and went home to enjoy the week left before two left for school for another year.
Well there's the first chapter for you. What did you think? Tell me by reviewing please!
