Chapter 9
The trip to the wizarding world was amazing right now Violet and everyone else was even more excited than before and everyone was having fun.
"Well, now I think is timeā¦"
"James Sirius." called a voice the young wizard and everyone turned around and saw a young man about the same age as James Sirius, he had blond hair and dark black eyes. He was tall, slightly more muscular than James Sirius, and different from him he wore wizarding clothes. He like James Sirius was very handsome indeed.
The new wizard turned a charming smile on the Muggles making every girl and a few guys look more than once at him which like James Sirius had done he ignored them he looked at everyone his black eyes darkening slightly at the sight of the older Dursley but no one noticed and said," Hello my name is Frank Augustus Longbottom is nice meeting you."
As they said their, helloes one of the parents asked:" Are you related to the Professor that came to introduce us to the wizarding world?"
"Yes, he is my father," answered Frank still smiling but he started laughing when a blur of red jumped into his best friend's back making, he stumbled forward almost falling into the ground.
The blur turned out to be a girl about eleven years old who had red hair and bright blue eyes she was smiling at the older boy who smiled in return.
James Sirius turned to the others and said" Alice, you are becoming even more beautiful every day." the little girl now revealed to be Alice smiled an even bigger smile and blushed but then seemed to realize there were other people there and that she was being impolite so she got down from the older wizard's back and turned to the others there saying.
"Hello, my name Alice Susan Longbottom, it's nice meeting you and, it will be nice going to school with so many of you."
"You go to Hogwarts too?" asked one of the little girls
The little redhead girl chuckled and said" No, I am going this year will all of you and my best friends I am so excited." the other girls squealed while the boys smiled, they found someone else the same age as them
"Really!" said one of the girls" So what house do you want to be in?"
"Well, I will be either in Gryffindor or Hufflepuff," said Alice after thinking a bit
"Why is that?" asked Natalie really curious about it
"Because of the fact my dad's family and my brother were in Gryffindor while my mother's family was Hufflepuff so those are the most likely scenarios."
"Is it a family thing?" asked Liam looking at the black-haired wizard
James Sirius answered the question "Sometimes not always in my father's year, they were twins who were in, different houses and while my family on both sides has been entirely in Gryffindor, my brother is a Slytherin and I have known of a family of a couple, their daughter and their grandson who all were in, different houses (for those who don't know I am talking about the Tonks family)." he paused a little and then said" And not to mention my dad's godfather who was a Gryffindor despite being from a family who had been in Slytherin for centuries. It's not set in stone but your family and upbringing do affect your sorting slightly."
Violet turned to her family and asked" My great-aunt who was a witch in what house was she?" no one of them knew what to say to her because no one of them knew the answer which made Violet very upset.
Alice being the smart girl she was and knowing that James Sirius hadn't told them he was related to them asked innocently" What was her name I may know the house she was in?"
"But how can you know she should have gone to school possibly before your parents were even born?" asked Charlotte
"In the wizarding world, everyone knows everyone," answered James Sirius caching on as to what his best friend's sister was doing
"Her name is Lily Evans," said Dudley
Alice pretended to think about it knowing the answer before they had even said her name and said: " She was in Gryffindor married one too and so was her son for that matter."
"So there is a chance I can be in Gryffindor," said Violet excited she had like the house form the moment she had heard about it and wanted very much to be part of it and now she knew that being part of that house would make her closer to her only magical relative
"It is possible," said James Sirius smiling
Violet was jumping up and down and became even more excited when Alice said:" If you become a Gryffindor, I will introduce you to my three best friends we will be five redheads, it will be amazing."
"Five redheads?" asked Violet she had never met anyone with the same hair color as her when she had answered her mother, she was told that red hair was a very rare color and that made her like her hair color even more, because it made her special but now there were so many others with the same hair color Alice had red hair and there were four more and everyone had magical powers she didn't feel as special now.
"Yeah James Sirius's sister and two of his cousins, it gets a little overwhelming at times but we are very close and have lots of fun also we look like siblings which is very nice."
"Really," said Violet becoming excited once again Alice nodded her head
"Alice," said Frank making his little sister turn around" Come on if you want to buy what you need we have to hurry up or we will be late for dinner." he then turned to his best friend and said" We will see you at the Borrow for the dinner right or are the two of you going on a date?" he asked implying James Sirius' boyfriend
"No, we will go to the Borrow grandma would kill us if we miss it." the three of them chuckled knowing that it was true.
"All right now what I was saying before I was interrupted our trip to Diagon Alley I will escort you back to the Muggle world and see you on September first at King Cross station at ten o'clock sharp so that I can show you to the train." everyone nodded and followed the young wizard outside of Diagon Alley and into the entirely ordinary world that they belonged.
Everyone said their goodbyes and the young wizard entered the pub they had just left when no one was there to see.
