I had serious blockage when it came to names. I was begging people to offer some up to me. I did some research and came up with enough. Here are a few of the new characters:

Alexander, (Sandy) MacIntosh – friend of Teddy's 1 year older. (Scottish)

Cathan D'Arcy - Friend of teddy, same age. (Irish)

Sam Stevens – American – same age as Sandy. (Yes I did go there)

Maria Smyth – muggle born – Sandy's best friend – same age as Sandy.

Elizabeth Creevy – muggle born – niece to Collin and Dennis, same age as teddy.

Lolly Stevens – American – sister of Sam. Same age as teddy.

Kieran Bryony - dark brooding Slytherine– antagonist for teddy, Alexander's year. (Irish, knows and hates Cathan)

Alphonse Skeeter – nephew of Rita, antagonist for teddy, same age.

We watched our copy of HP 1 tonight. Just as good as it was then! Well let me get Hedwig's theme up on the ol i-pod and lets get this boy to school!

Teddy 10

September 1st 2009

Teddy stood watching his family disappearing as the train pulled away from the station. He could not believe it! He was finally going to Hogwarts! He had a smile so big that his face hurt. He knew he would miss everyone, but he would not exactly be alone. Uncle Neville and Uncle Hagrid worked at Hogwarts. He just had to make sure to remember to call them "professor". As much as he loved his heart brothers and the cousins he could, at long last make friends his own age.

Grandma explained that everyone had been either so afraid of or busy fighting Voldemort that not many magical babies had been born in 1997 or 1998. So, unlike other years, there had not been children his own age to play with. He had been home schooled, it was just easier, a 5 year old metamophmagus has a hard time with control. Then Victoire was old enough to join in and it had become fun. They had spent their days being taught by Grandma, Aunt Fleur, Grandma Molly and Aunt Birdy.

Teddy leaned back in his seat. Boy the train was big and empty! There had been lots of older students at the station, but few his own age. Just as Teddy was thinking of digging in to some of his chocolate a dark haired boy with a scowl on his face threw open the compartment door. "My name is Kieran Bryony, I'm a Slytherine and older than you. Give me all your pocket money or I'll hex you and leave you on the train and they won't be finding your corpse until Christmas."

Now Teddy didn't exactly like his tone or message. He was trying to decide if he should use one of the boxing moves Uncle Dudley had shown him or just morph in to something scary. Before he had the chance the ugly git had flown sideways, disappearing from the door.

Teddy didn't know if a spell had hit him or if it had been a person. All he had seen was a blur of brown and blue. Teddy jumped up to get a better look. Rolling around on the floor was Kieran and what appeared to be a brown haired witch of around the same age.

Just when the witch appeared to be winning the git pulled his wand and set her hair on fire. Teddy couldn't let his defender be so maliciously treated so he hauled back and kicked Kieran in the nose, knocking him out cold.

"Nice move! Hi! My name is Maria. I'm a second year. Some of us are gathering up the first years so we can watch out for bloody prats like Bryony here. Would you like to join us?" Teddy shook his head yes and grinned. It wasn't long before they had his trunk in a new compartment with other students his age.

"My mates and I are next door, we will hear if any one bothers you. Leave your door open and we will too. I didn't catch your name."

Teddy offered her his hand to shake "Teddy, and thanks!"

He turned to his compartment mates, "Hi my name is Teddy, what's yours?"

A rosy faced, brown eyed, brown haired girl smiled and said "Elizabeth, My folks are muggles, but my Uncle is a wizard."

A blond haired, blue eyed girl with a deep tan said, with an American accent, " My names

Lolly, we moved to England last year. My moms an actress, and a witch, my dad's a muggle and a director."

A small sturdy built red headed boy with an Irish lilt to his voice stuck out his hand and said "Cathan, my mum is a witch, me dad was a wizard but he died in the war."

"I know how that feels, my mum and dad died in the war too." Teddy looked at the floor.

Elizabeth, very quietly said "I had two uncles who were wizards, the oldest died at the battle of Hogwarts."

Teddy decided this would be a good time to share some of his chocolate. Soon everybody was laughing and discussing what houses were best and if quidditch or football was better.

Before they knew it Maria poked her head in and told them they had better get their robes on.

As soon as Teddy got off the train he started looking around for Grandma Molly and Grandpa Arthur, since they lived in hogsmede, they had said they would meet him at the station for a quick hug.

He just had time to introduce his new friends, when Hagrid called out "'firs years. Over here. Hey Teddy my boy! Nice train trip?"

"You bet! I even made some new friends!"

"Well why don you an your friends come ter see me Saturday for tea?"

"Sure thing Unc…..Professor Hagrid."

Teddy had been to Hogwarts lots of times, but he had never approached it from the lake. He was struck dumb by the beauty of the castle as it rose in to the night's sky.

Hagrid led them to the big front doors and knocked twice. Uncle Neville opened the doors and said "Welcome to Hogwarts school ladies and gentlemen. Before we go in to the great hall for sorting there are a few things you must know. There are four houses at Hogwarts. Slytherine, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw. While you are here you will live in your house dormitories, you will eat with your house you will earn points, or have points taken away for your house. Now lets go in."

10 slightly scared students made their way to the front of the hall. Uncle Harry had told him about the sorting hat and he wanted to make sure he heard it's poem.

"12 years it has been since the second war it did end,

many a witch and wizard lost their life and many more were afraid to take a husband or a wife.

Because of this of you there are few, but 10 will have to do.

Now sit upon my stool and place me upon your head and I'll tell you which house will hold your bed."

Teddy looked around as they started with Allen, Primrose. "Hufflepuff!" Blair, Raymond. "Ravenclaw!" Creevy, Elizabeth. "Gryffindor!" D'Arcy, Cathan. "Gryffindor!" Forest, Emma. "Hufflepuff!"

Lupin, Theodore. Teddy heard the hat muttering. "Ah I see fine blood in you boy. Both your parents were brave and cleaver too. I wonder, you seem to have both those qualities. Smart too. What shall I do? Like to protect people, willing to put yourself in harms way eh? Harry Potter's god-son. I see it now, it must be…….Gryffindor!"

Montgomery, Anthony. "Hufflepuff!" O'Malley, Robert. "Ravenclaw!" Skeeter, Alphonse. "Slytherine!" Stevens. Lolly. "Ravenclaw!"

The headmistress, Professor Sprout, stood as soon as Lolly took her place at the Ravenclaw table. "Students, once again we are faced with a small incoming class. As we did last year, all of the first years will take their classes together. You new students will find that most of you will be sharing a room with at least one second year. Class schedules will be handed out tomorrow morning at breakfast. For tonight let's eat!

Ttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt

This looks like a good place to break. There are a whole bunch of excellent fan fictions out there that detail teddy's classes. I'm not even going to try. This fiction will be about what happens that forms his friendships and foeships (look I made up a word!). You might see him in a classroom, but he probably won't be studying:

Oh if you are confused about Molly and Arthur living in hogsmede read my story George.
