Chapter 2:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Edward looked on in shock as his wife healed one of his sons. He raced over shoving Will out of the way, kneeling next to the bleeding and whimpering Anie. "What happened? What is wrong with him?" Edward asked panicking. " Clam down Edward. It's only his nose that is broken. I can heal that easily enough. Give me a pain reducing potion and a sleeping draught if you would?." His wifes gentle voice assured him that nothing bad had happened and he calmed down considerably. He stood up and went down to his lab to get the requested potions.

Ten minutes later Nathaniel looked as good as new and was sleeping peacefully.

" How did this happen anyway?" Edward questioned silently so as to not wake his son.

" Harry, Will and Anie were teasing Philip. He lost controll of his temper and hit Nathaniel. The rest you know." Aliana explained to her husband.

"Where is Philip?", Ed's voice was shaking from barely controlled anger. " He is still in the dining room I guess. But let me deal with him Ed. You had a long day and are easy to set off." "No! He needs to be punished. He didn't only break the rules of our family and hurt another member of it , but also acted against the "Laws of Magic"." " I konow. But please at least wait till the morning comes whith dishing out punishments." Aliana pleaded with him. " Very well. But in the morning I will talk to him!" the man gave in. His wife smiled at him thankfully.

" Ed could you please levitate Anie to his room? I'll just clean up the kitchen a bit before comeing to bed. Oh and Harry you should go to bed too. Tomorrow is the first day of shool. Will could you help me in the kitches before going to bed? I don't think you have to work tomorrow, no?" A trio of" Yes mother." and " Of course love." answered her before Will moved to the kitchen with her and the rest made their way up to bed.

As Aliana went through the door of the dining room she felt a litle bit of anger mixed mit worry when she saw Philip sitting dejectedly at the table with a troubled look on his face. "Philip you should go to bed. Your father and I will talk to you in the morning before you leave for Hogwarts." she finally said before going to the kitchen. As Will went by him he threw him a heated glare before turning his head away ignoring him.

A lone tear made it's way down Philips face before he stood up and left the room.

And so the morning came.

Philip and his parents had their talk. It was decided that as a punishment he wasn't allowed to leave Hogwarts on weekends till the winter holidays. He obediently accepted this.

His brothers, safe little Stephano were glaring at him all morning, and even Kathrin was ignoring him for the most part. As it was the only ones not angry with him were Ann-Margaret, because she still was too small to understand what had happened and Maria-Linda because she wasn't at home last evening. Mali would only get the news when they were all at Hogwarts seeing as the parents of a friend of hers were going to bring her there.

After breakfast it was time for them to leave. Allthough they lived on the very boarders of the castlegrounds of the shool they would take a portkey to London where flying carpets were waiting for the students to bring them to Hogwarts.

It wasn't forbidden to go to shool directly but thei parents insisted that it was important to get there like the majority of the studentbody so that nobody would be envious of them. The children found they rather liked the trims with the carpends so they never protested.

London:

They were standing before the five enormos carpets. One for each house and opne for the firstyears that had yet to be sorted.

The whole family came to say goodby to Philip, Nathaniel, Harrison and Maria-Linda. Mrs. LaVey had tears in her eyes and was hugging Mali, who was a firstyear , for the tenth time. A few meter away another mother could be seen doing the same to her daughter, the girl Mali hat been the night. After saing their goodbys the boys and Mali left for their respective houses, and in Malis case to the other firstyears. Waving to her family as they took of, Mali had to smile at her older sister and mother who both were obviously crying. Her little brother was waving enthusiastically at her, as was he little sister. She looked closer and could actually make out that her father also seemed to barely hold in his tears as yet another of his children left for shool.

When they got out of sight she turned around again to see her best friend Lucinda crying her eyes out. She took her in her arms and whispered soothing nonsense in the other girls ears. She would miss her family too but Cin was also an very emotional person.

Later the two could be found talking about shool and which founder would take them into his or her house. Lucinda was extremly nervous about not getting into Gryffindors house. Her parents and grandparents, the first generation to visit the shool, had all been in the house of the lion. She was worryed that her family would be disappointed if she would be sorted into an other house. Mali knew she didn't need to fear the sorting. Allthough most of her family had been in Slytherin also the other houses could be found. Her oldest brother Philius had been in Ravenclaw as was her older siter Kathrin. William had been in Slytherin as were the twins now. Philip too was is his final year in Slytherin. Her parents had both been Slytherins themselfes but her maternal grandmother had been in Hufflepuff while her husband was in Slytherin. Her fathers mother had been in Ravenclaw and his father in Slytherin. Both his siblings Sieglinde and Ludwig were in Gryffindore and her mothers sister Maria-Anna was in Hufflepuff.

It really didn't matter where she was placed.

Hogwarts:

All the students were already seated when the firstyears came in. At the headtable the old founders and other teachers were seated and smiled at the young ones as they shyly came nearer. When her name was finally called Mali stepped up and let the sortinghat be placed on her head by an elderly woman.

Hmm.. where to place you young LaVey? Where to place you? .. You have a good mind and oh yes you are most definatly cunning and I see a thirst to proove yourself to your older siblings and parents. Yes I think you'll do good in "Slytherin! "… the last word was spoken aloud. She gave the hat back to the woman and with a smile went to join her new house. Her brothers were clapping the loudest and the twins were shouting all over the table " That's our sister!". She sat down next to Harrison who had waved her over to him. From his other side Anie told her how proud they were and Mali couldn't stop smiling. She was so distracted by her brothers that when a person sat down next to her she whirled around shocked. " Im sorry I didn't want to scare you." the boy, obviously a firstyear too said. " That's allright. It was my own falt for not paying better attention to my surroundings. My names Maria-Linda LaVey but you can call me Mali, everybody does." " My name's Brachus Snape", the boy with the long black hair and hooked nose answered. " Well, nice to meet you Brachus, I hope we can be friends." She smiled winningly at him while saying that and Brachus could do nothing but smile back." I would like that."

Mali and Brac , he couldn't help but raise his eyebrow when she first shortened his name, could be seen talking to each other the rest of the evening until it was time to go back to the houses. As a prefect lead them away Mali smiled when they passed the group of firstyear Griffindors and waved at Lucinda. She was confused when Cin just looked at her with an unreadable face. She knew of the rivalies between their two houses but hadn't thought that those would come between them. She came back to reality when Brac asked her if something was wrong and looked at her worriedly. She quickly smiled to reassure him that everything was allright but kept silent for the rest of the night.
