AN: the poll is still up. Since I started this story, I been trying to think of a good code name for Jennifer, like Black Widow or Hawkeye. I have some trouble with that for I can't think of a good code name for her, I want to ask your readers of what you think would be a good codename for her. There is no poll for the codename, just PM me or leave a review. Plus, I will cover some things that should be covered back when Jennifer first entered Hogwarts.
Albus's pov
He didn't bother to go down to the quidditch match that days, for he was busy of thinking of a way for Jennifer to go on the path he laid out for her. When he found the house destroyed ten years ago and there was no trace to Jennifer that he figured some muggles managed to get to her and raised he. He checked the book that list future Hogwarts students to make sure she was still alive, for if her name was crossed out that means she was dead. But her name was not crossed out, so which means that she was alive and it wasn't till a couple of months ago that he saw her again. Not only that but he remembered the words of the prophecy, Dumbledore figured that Voldemort marked her somehow. He was unsure of how she was marked, since he hadn't seen her. After making sure Jennifer was still alive that he made it known that Voldemort was banished by Jennifer on Halloween. He told the ministry that she has a scar, he refused to tell them of what kind of mark it was and just told them that the mark was easy to hid.
During that time, he claimed to be her magical guardian to the wizarding world as well as telling them that he placed her in a safe place. However he has no idea of where she was or who she was with, he tried to track her but it was impossible. After trying to locating her that he went to the goblins for two things, one was to have the goblins help him locate Jennifer and two to make himself her official guardian over Remus. When he tried to do that, that the goblins refused to do either one since they made it plain to him that she was already in care of her magical guardian and that her guardian made sure that she couldn't be located by any means. It pissed Albus to no end that neither one happened, for Jennifer needed to be place of where she would be humble and easy to lead to go on the path he laid out for her. After he learned that, that he tracked down Remus only to learn that he didn't have Jennifer with him. It was than that Albus panicked and thought Voldemort had her and was turning her to his heir if he were to die.
When Jennifer went to be sorted that he thought she would end up in Slytherin but to his surprise and relief, she ended up in Gryffindor. When he first looked at her as she sat down that he thought it would be easy from there, he did try to have both her and Harry join the team as a chaser and seeker. But what he didn't expect was only Harry getting on the team since only a seeker was needed, he was hoping that Jennifer joins next year. What else worried him was the friendship between Jennifer and Cooper, at first he thought they meet earlier that day. But in the couple of months that they have been here that it was clear that Jennifer and Cooper meet before and were very close. He would need to figure out if he should tear Cooper and Jennifer away from each other or just leave them as they were. First thing he would need to do was to talk to the father and mother, Albus got up to go and talk to the boy's parents.
Jennifer's pov
After the match that Jennifer, Cooper, Hermione, Harry, Ginny and Neville went down with Hagrid to his hut. So they didn't hear the aftermatch of the match, Hagrid gave them tea to drink as Hagrid place in front of them that Jennifer spoke.
"It was Snape, Hermione and I saw him. He was cursing Harry's broomstick, muttering, he wouldn't take his eyes off Harry."
"Rubbish. Why would Snape do somethin' like that?" They all looked at each other, wondering what to tell him, it was Harry that spoke.
"I found out something about him. He tried to get past that three-headed dog on Halloween. It bit him. We think he was trying to steal whatever it's guarding." Hagrid dropped the tea pot hat he was holding.
"How do you know about Fluffy?" Jennifer looked at the others puzzled before looking at Hagid and spoke,
"Fluffy?"
"Yeah - he's mine - bought him off a Greek chappie I met in the pub las' year - I lent him to Dumbledore to guard the ... " Jennifer sat forward and spoke.
"Yes?"
"Now, don't ask me anymore. That's top secret, that is."
"But Snape's trying to steal it."
"Rubbish, Snape's a Hogwarts teacher, he'd do nothin' of the sort." Hermione spoke up.
"So why did he just try and kill Harry? I know a jinx when I see one, Hagrid, I've read all about them! You've got to keep eye contact, and Snape wasn't blinking at all, I saw him!"
"I'm tellin' yeh, yer wrong! I don' know why Harry's broom acted like that, but Snape wouldn' try an' kill a student! Now, listen to me, all three of yeh - yer meddlin' in things that don' concern yeh. It's dangerous. You forget that dog, an' you forget what it's guardin', that's between Professor Dumbledore an' Nicolas Flamel -" Jennifer spoke up before Hagrid could finish of what he was saying.
"Aha! So there's someone called Nicolas Flamel involved, is there?" Hagrid looked furious with himself. When Jennifer got back to the common room that she pulled out a piece of parchment and a quill before writing a letter to her father.
Father,
Everything is good here for the most part, Harry become the new seeker for Gryffindor even though he is only a first year. However today at the quidditch match that it seems that Snape was trying to kill Harry by knocking him off his broom. Afterwards we were talking to Hagrid, remember that three headed dog I told you about. Apparently Hagrid knows the dog and named the dog Fluffly out of all things before he gave it to Dumbledore to guard something, whatever the dog is guarding that it has something to do with a guy named Nicolas Flamel. Do you know who this man is?
Jennifer
Jennifer put the letter into an envelope before she headed back outside and gave the letter to Shadow of who took it and flew off to where her father was. Knowing her father and his line of work that he could be anyway but she knows that Shadow would always find him no matter where he was. The next couple of weeks seem to take forever with waiting for a reply from her father as well as going to the library with her friends to learn about Nicolas Flamel. Than one morning, Shadow came down to her with a letter, Jennifer took the letter from her and opened it.
Jennifer,
I hope Harry is all right as well as yourself. I can't say too much about this Nicolas Flamel, I heard the name before but I am not sure where I heard it before. As you know I barely return to the wizarding world like yourself. I haven't kept much up to date on what has been happening the wizarding world. I will see you at Christmas.
Your father
PS: Albus came over to the Barton Farm while Clint and I were there for a break, he was surprised to see me there alive no less and thought the bartons made an illusion up as well as said things that just made him seem insane to the Bartons, like saying that he was your magical guardian. In simple terms, he won't ever enter the barton farmhouse ever again after that. We had the goblins ward the farmhouse to make sure Albus doesn't break in, just for the sake of it that we also used Phoenix wards to make sure that Albus couldn't enter the house with his Phoenix. You and Cooper would have been amused by what happen, as a favor to me, prank him if you can. I do believe there are vents around the castle or something close to that around there.
By the time that Jennifer finished the letter that she was on the floor laughing her head off, the few people in the common room were looking at her oddly. Just as Jennifer managed to stop laughing and got back on the chair that Cooper came down from his dorm. When he took the last few steps that he looked at Jennifer, Jennifer started laughing again and feel off her chair again. Cooper walked over to her and spoke as he did so.
"What is so funny?" Jennifer held the letter out to Cooper.
"This." Cooper took it from her and read it, it didn't take long for Cooper to sit down next her and started laughing. Cooper managed to speak between laughing.
"It's official, I am going to look for vents or something that we can crawl through in Hogwarts." The two of them broke into silent laughter at those words, making everyone else wondering why they were laughing so hard.
As Christmas came closer that Jennifer and Cooper were getting antsy of going back home to the Barton farmhouse. Director Fury allowed some time off for the bartons, Jennifer and her father for Christmas since Jennifer and Cooper only had a couple of weeks off from school before going back. During the next month that followed that Cooper got a letter from Uncle Clint telling Jennifer and Cooper of a new agent by the name of Natasha Romanoff that was Clint's new partner that was going to be with the family for Christmas. There things that started to show that it was winter and getting close to Christmas, for one morning the lake froze solid. The Weasley twines were punished for bewitching several snowballs so that the snowballs followed Quirrell around, bouncing off the back of his turban. There was only few owls that got through the stormy sky to deliver mail, the Owls were nursed back to health by Hagrid before they could fly off again. It seems hardly anyone could wait for the holidays to start, even though the Gryffindor Common room and the great hall have roaring fires that the corridors didn't. So that the drafty corridors became icy and there was a bitter wind was rattling the windows of the classrooms, the worst of it was potions of which was in the dungeons. Their breath rose in a mist before them and all of the students kept as close as possible to their hot cauldrons.
During the rest of the time before the holidays, when they had the chance, that Jennifer and Cooper looked for Vents and they managed to find them to. For the time being they decided to use it after the holidays and only when they really needed to use it. Hermione, Jennifer and Cooper were going home as were Harry, Ginny and Neville were going to stay at the castle for the holidays. After one potion lesson that the six of them left after Malfoy, as they reached the great hall that Malfoy was insulting one of the Hufflepuffs or trying to do but the Hufflepuff just walked past Malfoy. Malfoy had stomp off and went around a tree that was walking, Jennifer, Harry, Cooper, Hermione, Neville, and Ginny went to the tree. As they went over to the tree that Jennifer hear a familiar voice.
"Hey, yeh six."
"Hey Hagrid. What are you doing?"
"I am tak'ng this here tree to the Great Hall. Tell yeh what, come with me an' see the Great Hall, looks like a treat." So the six of them followed Hagrid and his tree to the great Hall, where Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick were busy with the Christmas decorations. It was Professor Flitwick that spoke up as they entered the Great Hall.
"Ah, Hagrid, the last tree - put it in the far corner, would you?" Jennifer looked around at the hall, the great hall looked spectacular even better than anything she saw in the shield apartment buildings. Of course at the apartment that it was done the muggle way since there was only three magic users in the apartment building. There was festoons of Holly and mistletoe hung all around the walls and no less than twelve towering Christmas trees stood around the room. Some of the trees were sparkling with tiny icicles and some were glittering with hundreds of candles, with how amazing it was that Jennifer would prefer to use hands to decorate a tree instead of using a wand.
"How many days you got left until yer holidays?"
"Just one? And that reminds me -Harry, Jennifer, Cooper, Neville, Ginny, we've got half an hour before lunch, we should be in the library."
"Oh yeah, you're right." Jennifer turned her eyes away from Professor Flitwick of who was putting up golden bubbles that was blossoming out of his wand and was trailing them over the tree that Hagrid haut brought it. The six of them left the hall and Hagrid followed them.
"The library? Just before the holidays? Bit keen, aren't yeh?" It was Jennifer who responded.
"Oh, we're not working. Ever since you mentioned Nicolas Flamel we've been trying to find out who he is." Hagrid looked shocked when Jennifer said that.
"You what? Listen here - I've told yeh - drop it. It's nothin' to you what that dog's guardin'."
"We just want to know who Nicolas Flamel is, that's all." Jennifer would have said something else but Harry spoke up before she go on.
"Unless you'd like to tell us and save us the trouble? We must've been through hundreds of books already and we can't find him anywhere - just give us a hint - I know I've read his name somewhere."
"I'm sayin' nothin." So Jennifer spoke.
"Just have to find out for ourselves, then." It was hard to find who Nicolas Flamel is or was, which ever the case might be. After a while of looking through the library that Harry joined Jennifer at a table before Nevile, Hermione and Ginny joined them, they all shook their heads. So they went off to lunch.
"You three will keep looking while Jennifer, Cooper and I are away, won't you? And send one of us an owl if you find anything." It was Harry that spoke next.
"And you could ask your parents if they know who Flamel is, It'd be safe to ask them."
"Very safe, as they're both dentists." When the holidays started that Cooper, Hermione and Jennifer found an empty compartment, thankfully it was only the three of them in the compartment. When they got off the train that Hermione had brought Jennifer and Cooper over to meet her parents of who were waiting for them on the other side. Just after Hermione introduce Jennifer and Cooper to her parents that Jennifer heard someone call her name.
"Jennifer!" Jennifer and Cooper turned around as their fathers came over to them, Jennifer ran over and hugged her father and Cooper did the same with his father. When Jennifer pulled away that she notice just behind Uncle Clint was a woman about ten years younger than Clint. The woman has red hair and green eyes, she was wearing a blue shirt, brown jacket and blue jeans. Clint noticed Jennifer was looking at the red hair woman and he spoke as soon as Cooper pulled back from the hug.
"This is Natasha. Natasha is is Cooper and Jennifer." Just than Hermione and her parents came over and introduce each other, as soon as that happen that Jennifer and Cooper ask if the Rangers could come with them. Of which the four parents agreed to, since they wanted to get to know the Rangers better, Aunt Laura didn't seem to mind either when they got back to the farmhouse. Lila loved the fact that her brother and adopted sister were staying at the farmhouse for Christmas and that they brought a friend with them. Whenever Jennifer, Cooper and their fathers came that the farmhouse was busier than normal but with the Grangers there that the farmhouse seems even more busier than usual. They had fun decorate the tree that they got, they also spend on of the days getting presents for each other and for their friends. While they stayed at the farmhouse that Hermione, Lila, Cooper and Hermione shared a room while her father, Natasha, and the Grangers shared a room.
When Jennifer woke up the next morning that she was excited, Cooper woke up about the same time as Jennifer. However Lila was already up and she was dragging Uncle Clint, Aunt Laura and the newly added aunt Natasha. Hermione, Cooper and Jennifer made sure that Jennifer's father and Hermione's parents were awake before heading down downstairs to open the presents. As soon as they reached down stairs that Jennifer, and the others opened their presents, the first present Jennifer opened was wrapped in thick brown paper and scrawled across it was To Jennifer from Hagrid. Jennifer opened it up to reveal a roughly wooden flute, Jennifer blew it and. A sound of an owl came from it, Hermione and Cooper also got something wooden from Hagrid. Jennifer went on to the next one of which urged out to be from the Wesley twins of which was a bag of pranks and they got Cooper the same thing. After opening those presents that Jennifer and Cooper looked at each other and smiled, knowing all too well for what they were going to do with it. Hermione managed to get Jennifer a large box of Chocolate frogs, Ginny got her quidditch through the ages, and Neville got her a wizard chess set.
To her surprise that Harry got her a bracelet, while Cooper got her action figures of Captain America and Bucky Barnes. She got a paintball gun from Aunt Laura and a smaller version of Uncle Clint's bow with arrows that could do different things like Uncle Clint's bow that case from Uncle Clint. To no big surprise that Jennifer got some more Captain America comic books from her father, no big surprise there. Cooper got the bow and arrows as well as the paintball gun and the comic books. Jennifer got him an action figure of Legolas that said Hawkeye Junior on the back, that made Uncle Clint bang his head against the wall while it made everyone else burst into laughter. However there was three lumpy packages and a long but small package, the three lumpy packages were for Jennifer, Cooper and Hermione but the smaller one was for Jennifer. Jennifer, Cooper, and Hermione opened the lumpy packages, to her surprise all three packages contain three sweaters. Hermione's sweater was Purple with Pink H on it, Cooper's sweater was a dark grey with a white C on it, Jennifer's sweater was Navy blue with a red J. In all three packages were homemade fudge and a letter in Jennifer's, as Jennifer picked up the letter that Uncle Cooper picked up Cooper's sweater.
"Who made this?" It was Jennifer that responded.
"Mrs. Weasley, Ginny's mother. She wrote this letter." Jennifer read the letter out loud.
"Dear Jennifer, Cooper and Hermione,
Fred, George and Ginny wrote to me about you three, I wasn't sure of how many presents you would have and decided to send you here the sweaters and fudge. Enjoy. They also told me that your three might be together on Christmas with your families.
Molly Weasley." Her father took the letter from her when Jennifer finished reading the letter and looked at it before he spoke.
"I heard about the Weasley. I never meet them before." Her father handed her the letter back before going on. "However that last present is from your mother." Jennifer looked up at her father before he went on. "Well she would have given to you this year if she was alive. I just been keeping it safe in the last ten years." Jennifer opened the package to reveal a box and she opened the package, inside the box was a gold necklace with a golden heart that has the letter S on it. Jennifer looked up at her father as he spoke. "It is a heirloom of Selwyn, though the name had changed to Coulson. It was in the Vault up till after you were born when your mother took it out to give to you for your eleventh birthday or for your first Christmas after you started Hogwarts." Jennifer out on the necklace and the sweater, for the rest of the day Jennifer, Cooper, Hermione and Lila played with their presents and even played paintball. The only other thing that could have made her holiday better would have been a mission.
