Prologue

“Lily, James! We’re here!” Jack Potter and his wife Kate Potter said as they walked into his brother’s house with their baby daughter Emily Potter holding her teddy bear in her arms.

“Hello, Jack, Kate. Hello Emily, do you want to see your cousin Harry?” James asked as he tickled Emily in her mother’s arms.

“Sure, I’ll take her up there.” Lily said coming into the room and she took Emily up stairs with her teddy bear and put her in Harry’s crib. They both were the same age except Emily was older than him by a few months, she was born in April when he was born in July.

It was a happy moment for the Potter’s. The brother’s were visiting each other after a few months of not being able to see each other. Kate Harrison Potter was happy to see her good friend Lily whom she met at Hogwarts along with James who introduced her to his brother who also went to Hogwarts. She wouldn’t have ever met Jack if it wasn’t for James because she and Jack didn’t hang out much with James and his friends in school, who were famous for their many adventures and trouble making. Just as happy as this day was it was soon interrupted. When someone broke into the Potter house and came into the room and cast the killing spell on Jack.

“Avada Kedavra!” the cloaked man yelled from the door way and hit Jack in the back of the head and he slumped to the floor. Kate yelled as did Lily and James cried at Lily and Kate to run upstairs and protect the children.

Kate and Lily ran up to the nursery and they grabbed their children and then they heard the blast and the yell as James was killed. Soon, the man burst into the room and went for Kate and he hit the unforgivable curse on her and she slumped to the floor with a crying Emily in her arms. Then Lily placed Harry in the crib as she was hit with the unforgivable curse.

“I Lord Voldermort, will kill you Harry Potter. That prophecy will not come true.” He said as he then raised his wand and shot the curse at him, but it did nothing, but left a lightening bolt scar on his forehead and it bounced back on him destroying him or so people thought.

He had thought his job was done but he forgot one child who would remember that night for the rest of her life because of her nightmares. She would never know who the cloaked man was and she could barely remember that night, but she knew what happened because of one last spell her mother put on her that night to one day remember that night and one day she would remember it all vividly and tell her story.

5 years later……

“Aunt Mary and Uncle John, can we go to Diagon Alley today?” Emily asked her aunt and uncle. After that fateful night she was given to her mother’s brother and his wife, as a child from Dumbledore, they both were child-less. Her uncle was a wizard unlike her aunt who was a muggle, but she embraced the wizarding world and understood it, because she loved her husband and her niece.

“We’ll see, but first Aunt Mary needs to go to the doctor for a check up and then we will go to Diagon Alley.” Uncle John said laughing as he held her hand as they walked through the London streets over to St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. They were standing outside the familiar red brick building which had the name Purge and Dowse Ltd. and they walked through the glass and they ended up in the crowed reception room.

“Uncle Jim why are we here and not the Muggle hospital?” Emily asked.

“Well, you know that dinner I made from some magical plants the other night and she’s been getting sick, so I figured we should try here first then the Muggle hospital. Now lets check in.” Uncle Jim said and they checked in and the woman at the reception desk told them to go up to the 3rd floor for Potion and Plant Poisoning. They walked upstairs and were put into a hospital room, Lizzie sat in a chair next to her uncle while her aunt sat on the hospital table and her uncle read the Daily Prophet which he brought for reading material.

After the doctor came in her took, Mary away for some tests and came back.

“Mr. Harrison, I need to tell you it wasn’t the plant you used that is causing her to be ill, you need to go to a Muggle hospital for this, well I’ll let your wife tell you the news.” Doctor Rummy said.

“What is it Mary?” Uncle Jim asked.

“Jim, I’m going to have a baby.” Aunt Mary said beaming with a huge smile on her face and Uncle Jim jumped for joy and kissed his wife.

“Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Harrison. Once you have the baby bring it here so we can check to see if it has gained your magic or not. Alright?” Dr. Rummy said smiling.

“We will, thank you Doctor.” Aunt Mary said and they left.

“We will go to the London Hospital tomorrow, lets go shopping in Diagon Alley.” Aunt Mary said and Emily cheered for joy. They walked down to the Leaky Cauldron to get to Diagon Alley.

“Ah, Jim!” a red headed man said walking over to them in the bar.

“Arthur! It’s good to see you! How’s your vacation?” Uncle Jim asked, Arthur Weasley worked with Emily’s uncle at the Ministry of Magic, both worked in the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts area.

“It is wonderful, I’m here with the whole family and we just finished shopping for today in Diagon Alley.” Arthur said to her uncle.

“So are we. You remember my wife Mary and my niece Emily Potter?” Uncle Jim said motioning for them to come forward.

“Yes, of course how I could I forget them, especially little Emily. Speaking of which have you heard about Harry, how is he?” Arthur asked.

“We’ve tried to talk to his Aunt and Uncle but they refuse to speak to us because I am a wizard and they feel my wife is a horrible woman for marrying a wizard.” Uncle Jim said.

“And they are wrong, I love you no matter what you are. I really wish we could’ve taken care of Harry, he shouldn’t be with those horrible people.” Aunt Mary said.

“Dumbledore felt it was best for Harry to not know about this world until he was old enough to go to Hogwarts.” Uncle Jim said.

“Which is a terrible pity.” Arthur said shaking his head, “But Dumbledore knows best.” He said and then his huge family came over, “Ah, Molly, I was just talking to Jim and his wife Mary.” He said to his wife.

“Hello Jim, hello Mary. Hello Emily, you all should stop by for tea sometime soon, we haven’t seen you in a while. Charlie, Bill, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny, where are your manners, say hello to Mr. and Mrs. Harrison?” Molly said to her children.

“Hello Mr. and Mrs. Harrison.” They all said in unison.

“Hello, Emily.” Ron said.

“Hello Ron, how are you?” Emily asked.

“I’m good, do you want to come to the Burrow and play sometime?” Ron asked.

“Yeah! Can we Uncle Jim? Please?” Emily asked.

“I don’t see why not, how about Friday?” He asked Arthur.

“That would be great. We will see you then and I will see you at work next week.” Arthur said as they began to leave.

“Goodbye!” The Weasley family said.

“Goodbye!” the Harrison’s and Emily said and they went off to go shopping in Diagon Alley.

6 years later……

“No, no! Mummy! NO!!” Emily yelled as she thrashed around in her bed dreaming her constant nightmare of that fateful night years ago, her dreams were hazy on all the details but she could still hear the screams of her parents and her aunt and uncle in her dreams.

“Emily. Emily! Love, EMILY!” Uncle Jim yelled at her shaking her awake.

“NO!!!” She yelled as she woke up with a tears and a cold sweat running down her face.

“It’s me, Uncle Jim, your home and your alright. You had the nightmare again?” He asked as he held her in her arms as she cried.

“Yes, I could hear them screaming, daddy, mummy, uncle James, aunt Lilly, I heard them all screaming. I heard his voice and his evil laugh I couldn’t make out what he was saying and I couldn’t see what was happening but I could hear everything. It scared me.” Emily cried in her uncle’s arms. Just then her aunt came in with Jack her 6 year old cousin and Lily her 1 year old cousin in her arms holding a bottle.

“Is everything alright?” Aunt Mary asked.

“We could hear you screaming Emily.” James said.

“Go back to bed Jack, Mary finish feeding Lily, everything is alright.” Uncle Jim said and he shut her bedroom door on them, “Here is your teddy bear, it always makes you feel better and listen to some music. Everything is fine, he is not coming to get you, he is gone. Now go back to sleep.” Uncle Jim said soothingly to her and he turned on her radio on low and she fell asleep listening to the soothing music and holding her bear that she had that same night 11 years ago. Tomorrow she would get a special letter and she would soon meet her cousin Harry, who shared the same nightmares as her and the same pain.

A/N: I hope everyone enjoys that and a longer chapter is coming next and will probably be 2 parts since it is about the first year. Ch.1 = first year, ch.2 = 2nd year, etc. So, please leave nice replies!

Weeee! I'm glad this is up! I feared you'd changed your mind and weren't going to write this.

So, poor Emily. I mean, being the 'Chsen one' is already quite a heavy thing to handle, but being an innocent and powerless bystander is somehow even worse... and it's sad the two cousins lost touch, since they were the ones who survived that horrible night, they could have found relief in each other.

I loved the Weasley's entrance! But you know, my love will always stick with the Weasleys, red hair and freckles and all. ;)

I am liking this very much... it's well written and I'm curios to know how it will pogress. If you don't mind a tip, I'd add a comma or two here and there, to give a more regular pace to the writing... but it's just me, and I hope it wasn't rude to say! :blush:

More soon, or I'll hexe ya! :lol:

Here I'm finally here. Sorry uni has a tight grip on my free time :)
But I'm loving this. I like how you change everything and don't make yourself a slave to the actual book. It's really good.

And poor Emily, isn't that kind of cruel of her mom to put that spell on her?
But now she's goint to Hogwarts and even though I am not in school anymore I still fantasize of going there. *sigh* Oh Hogwarts...

so can't wait for more on this :)

hugs,
Laila

:cry: I feel bad for Emily....getting caught in the crossfires and having to see not only her parents but her aunt and uncle getting killed by Voldermort!

Amazing story so far and I can't wait for the next chapter!!!!!

A/N: :hug: I am so glad everyone enjoyed the prologue and I hope you can like the rest of the story, I am going to get a little dedicated to the book from here on until year 7, so bear with me. :tom: Read below for my disclaimer. Also, thanks for your advice too, I always like advice and let me forwarn you all that I sometimes misspell stuff or leave out commas or etc. so bear with me, I don't have a beta reader for this kind of stuff, which I probably need one. Oh well, on with the story.

Disclaimer: I own none of the Harry Potter book related names, letters, etc. in this story. They all belong to J.K. Rowling and I am only using them for creative purposes. Plus, I figured I should put this Disclaimer just so I don’t have the feds come knocking on my door saying I used some of her work saying it was mine, when I well know it is definitely not mine. It is all J.K. Rowling’s creative genius. Thanks and Good night.

~Chapter 1- part 1: Year 1~

“Emily! You have an Owl letter!” Aunt Mary called up the stairs and I jumped out of bed and ran down the stairs. I knew what this was and I had been waiting my whole life for this one letter. I ran past my uncle who was walking out the front door for work.

“Hey, Hey! Where is my hug?” He yelled after me and I ran back and hugged him.

“Bye uncle Jim. Have a nice day at work and tell Mr. Weasley I say hello.” I said as I hugged him and he laughed as I ran back toward the kitchen to see my aunt sitting at the table feeding Lilly in her high chair and Jack was eating his waffles with the whole bottle of syrup all over them and I saw the grey barn owl sitting in the middle of the table.

“Hey Aslan. Here is a treat.” I said giving him an owl treat as I took the letter out of his beak. He then flew off to go to his perch out in our small owl barn in the backyard. I looked at the letter and of course on the back seal was the Hogwarts crest. I ripped the envelope open and read the letter.

Dear Miss Potter,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment. Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.

“I’m going to Hogwarts! I’m going to Hogwarts!” I said in a sing song-y voice jumping up and down.

“Calm down Emily, you knew you were going to get in. Now what are the supplies you need so we can go to Diagon Alley tomorrow?” Aunt Mary said as she pulled out some parchment and began writing a letter to Professor McGonagall.

“Why can’t we go today?” I asked dying to go shopping.

“We will make it a family trip, so be patient. Now what do we need to get.” She said smiling up at me as she grabbed her ink well and feather.

I read the second letter aloud to my aunt and it said:

“Will I be getting my own Owl Aunt Mary?” I asked.

“We’ll have to see love.” She said as she gave the letter to Aslan the family owl and he flew off taking the reply letter to Hogwarts.

“Can I get a broom too?” I asked excitedly.

“No, it says first years cannot bring their own brooms to Hogwarts. Maybe next year. Are you going to try out for Qudditch?” Aunt Mary asked.

“No, I don’t think I would do well, but I just like flying and you know that.” I said and Aunt Mary smiled.

“You never know, you could be good because it is in your blood. Your mother played Qudditch for Ravenclaw, she was a chaser. That’s how she met your uncle James, she played against him and they became friends but didn’t hang out much because he was more trouble than she wanted and your Aunt Lily, she was also in Gryffindor, was in lots of your mother’s classes and that’s how they became friends. Anyways, go get changed for the day, we are going to the Zoo today.” Aunt Mary said and I jumped for joy and ran upstairs to change.

After I had changed, Aunt Mary had put Lilly in her car seat and Jack in his car seat, I sat up front with her and we drove off to the London Zoo. I helped aunt Mary put Lilly in her stroller and we finally got to go into the zoo. But as I was running into the doors excited I ran into a big man and I fell to the ground and the man turned to me with his wild mustache and furrowed eyebrows and frowned at me.

“You should watch where you are going.” He said in a huffy voice.

“I’m sorry sir.” I said sheepishly as I got up.

“Vernon! Let’s go!” a tall lady with short brown hair called to him and when the lady saw me her eyes grew wide in shock and she then shook her head as her husband Vernon walked over to her.

“Emily! Slow down and be careful.” Aunt Mary said coming over to me and her face had all the sudden grew white, she had seen the lady and pulled me along into the zoo.

“Why did you go all white Aunt Mary?” I asked her.

“Oh nothing, just felt a little light headed for some reason that’s all.” She said smiling down at me. We walked around the zoo and were about to have lunch in the zoo restaurant when Aunt Mary pulled me away.

“Let’s go grab our food and go eat by the fountain.” Aunt Mary said after she saw the family and the man I had ran into earlier sitting in the restaurant.

Later in the afternoon, we went into the reptile house which I hated, snakes and I don’t get along like me and spiders don’t get along either. We went in because Jack wanted to see the snakes. Then I heard a boy whine near boa Constrictor’s glass cage.

“Make it move!” He whined to his father, the man I ran into earlier.

“Move.” He said tapping the glass but evidently the snake didn’t move.

“This is boring.” The boy said and he walked away and then I noticed the one skinnier boy about my age that was with them in clothes that were too big for him standing at the window. Then the snake sat up and was at eye level with the boy and I gasped. He was talking to the snake in a kind of snake language, he was speaking parsel tongue!

I had heard my uncle talk about it and he said only dark wizards speak parsel tongue, but this young boy didn’t seem like a dark wizard, maybe some good wizards spoke it too. Wait a minute, I found another young wizard! Awesome! Then all the sudden the bigger fat boy who was with him came running over and he pushed the skinnier boy out of the way and Emily got a better look at him. He had my color brown hair, glasses, and a familiar pair of green eyes.

Just then the glass that the bigger boy was leaning against to see the snake better disappeared and I looked around feeling like I did it but I didn’t they boy on the ground must’ve.

“Emily! We should- Oh my God.” Aunt Mary said coming over and she saw the boy on the floor and saw the bigger boy fall into the snake’s glass cage and the glass reappeared. Then the snake slipped to the floor and escaped and everyone went screaming including myself. I jumped up and my aunt ran and I ran out with my cousins out of the reptile house.

“I didn’t do it!” I said as we ran out of there.

“I know you didn’t love.” Aunt Mary said once we stopped and caught our breath.

“That skinny boy did! He spoke parsel tongue!” I said and she smacked my arm and covered my mouth.

“Don’t go shouting things like that around here!” She hissed in my ear and we left the zoo. I knew my aunt knew something about that boy, but she wasn’t going to tell me what she knew.

Next Day……

“Can we go now?!” I yelled in frustration as we had finally gotten Lilly settled and I had been waiting forever to get down to Diagon Alley.

“Yes! You need to learn better patience Emily.” Uncle Jim said and I flushed under his scolding. We took the car and drove out to London and went to the Leaky Cauldron.

“Jim!” Hagird yelled from the bar and he bounded over to us.

“Hagird! How are you?” My uncle asked and Hagrid gave him a big hug and I saw his face go a little blue from lack of oxygen for a second.

“I’m great, how are you and the family?” Hagrid asked and he noiticed us standing next to him. “Oh my, is this lil’ Emily Potter?” He asked shocked when he saw me and tears sprung into his eyes.

“Yes, this is Emily.” Aunt Mary said and Hagrid sniffled.

“Blimey, I remember you when ye was a baby. You are so grown up.” Hagird said and he picked me up and gave me a big bear hug and then he put me down.

“We are off to buy Emily’s Hogwarts supplies, she got her letter yesterday.” Aunt Mary said and Hagird got even more tears in his eyes.

“Speaking of which, have you spoken to Harry about Hogwarts. I heard his aunt and uncle have been rejecting his letters. Mary saw them yesterday.” Uncle Jim said to Hagrid.

“Dumbledore told me to wait until next Sunday, the day before Harry’s birthday and if they don’t respond by then, Dumbledore told me I had to go and tell him and deliver the message myself.” Hagrid said.

“Well, tell us when you do. We should be off, cya around Hagrid.” Uncle Jim said and we then left waving goodbye to Hagrid and we went shopping in Diagon Alley. We first went to Gringotts Bank. We walked in and my uncle walked up to one nasty looking goblin. Aunt Mary looked around nervously and held the stroller and Jack closer to her, because of the goblins.

“Miss Emily Potter would like to take some money out of her safe.” Uncle Jim said and I looked at him confused.

“I have a safe?” I asked.

“Your parents left you with money after their death Emily, they weren’t going to leave you to defend for yourself or living off of relatives.” Uncle Jim said smiling.

“Does Miss Potter have her key?” the goblin asked and Uncle Jim pulled out my key out of a brown wrapped package in his pocket and we went to vault 686. Inside was a mountain size, well almost mountain size of gold and many different wizard money. It could add up to about 1 million pounds in real life. I was bloody rich.

“Now, don’t go spend it all in one place love. Most of that is toward school and for your future in work and etc. the rest is your spending money.” Uncle Jim said smiling and he took about 2 small pouches full of coins to go shopping with.

We first went to Madame Malkin’s Robes for all occasions shop to get fitted into my robes, then we went into Flourish and Blotts to get my books, and then Aunt Mary went off to get some food for Jack and Lilly while Uncle Jim and I went into Ollivanders.

“Good afternoon. Ah, I wondered when you would be coming in here Miss Potter.” Ollivander said, “Hello Jim.” Ollivander said noticing him standing next to me. He then measured my arm and then recorded it.

“Hello Ollivander, we are here to get Emily a wand.” He said and Ollivander walked to his shelves and grabbed me a wand.

“Try this.” He said, “ It is made of Williow, like your aunt Lilly’s.” he said and I tried it but failed. “Alirght, try this one.” He said, “ A mahogany wand, like your uncle James’s.” he said and I gave it a wave and I made book hit him in the head. “Nope, try this Mahogany and phoenix feather, like your mother’s.” he said, it had a lovely rose design on the handle many roses, not on vines, just roses and they went up the wand, it was beautiful and I tried it and a tingling sensation went through my arm and I gave it a wave and yellow and white sparks came out. “Ah, we have found your wand Miss Potter.” Ollivander said.

“Congratulations Emily. We have gotten your first wand. Now, your aunt and I have been talking and we think you should get your first owl. Let’s go over to Eeylops Owl Emporium and get you an owl.” Uncle Jim said as Ollivander wrapped the wand in it’s package and we were off. We went into the Owl shop and I found a brown tawny owl and I named her Narnia. Then we met up with aunt Mary who had bought my cauldron which was sitting under the stroller in it’s little basket. Then we left and went home after a successful day.

2 months later, September 1……

“Alright, lets hurry we don’t want to be late getting to the Train!” Uncle Jim yelled as we walked fast through the station, it was 10:30 and the train leaves at 11 o’clock sharp. Aunt Mary was pushing the baby stroller, Uncle Jim pushed my cart with my dark green trunk with my initials on it with Narnia in her cage on top of the trunk, while I held Jack’s hand while we walked through the station. Uncle Jim performed a spell to let me fit everything I needed for school in my trunk which was nice so I didn’t have much to carry around school.

We then came to the platform 9 ¾ and Uncle Jim went first walking through the wall, then Aunt Mary and then me and Jack.

“That was awesome!” Jack yelled coming out on the other side. I felt the same way, but I felt I should be composed, even though on the inside I was close to crying and nervous about my trip to Hogwarts. The platform was filled with many wizard families and the steam from the train was giving it a dreamlike quality to it all.

“Alright Emily, this is it. I want you to be a good girl and mind your manners and do well in school. And you know the rules about your name and everything, take it all in stride, so many people know you and your cousin because of that night many years ago. You might meet him here today but you might not depending on his Aunt and Uncle. Don’t let the famous-ness of that night go to your head either.” Uncle Jim said kneeling down to have my face level with his.

“I understand uncle.” I said feeling tears burn the back of my eyes.

“Also, if you start to have more of those memories and nightmares come back to you at night just write a letter to us about it, if they become more clear and everything, write us straight away and also go see Professor McGonagall about those nightmares too when you have them. She knows all about them and your special gift.” Uncle Jim said.

It was a year ago that they told me about the gift that my mother left on me before she died, the memory spell. It was a spell to have long lasting memory and to be able to remember anything and everything, it was mainly for that one night long ago but it came in handy some nights for school, but not always. The spell only worked if you truly wanted it to or were interested in what you needed to remember. So I could never use the excuse ‘I forgot.’.

“I understand and I promise to write you about them when I get them.” I said and the tears finally did fall and Uncle Jim pulled me to him and hugged me close. Then Aunt Mary hugged me and then I had to get on the train. I dragged my trunk and Narnia aboard and I found a compartment to myself, since most students hadn’t gotten on board yet. I looked out the window and waved to Uncle Jim and Aunt Mary. Then more students got on board and one big family walked by the compartment.

“Matt, just because you’re a 3rd year doesn’t mean you get to push me around.” The red head girl yelled at her brother who had just pushed her out of the compartment next door.

“You get your own room, Jack and I get a room with our friends, you’re a first year, you don’t need to socialize with us yet.” Matt said to her and she stuck her tongue out at him and walked over to my compartment.

“Hello.” She said with a thick Scottish accent, “May I sit with you?” She asked.

“Sure.” I said and she came in and put her trunk and her brown and white owl away and sat down across from me.

“I’m Samantha Carlisle, but you can call me Sam.” She said holding out her hand and I took it.

“I’m Emily Potter.” I said shaking her hand and her green eyes grew wide.

“Are you really the Emily Potter, as in the Cousin’s Potter?” Sam asked in a low voice.

“Yes and no I do not have a scar like my cousin and I have never met my cousin in my whole life since I was a baby.” I said and she nodded her head.

“I’m sorry that you’ve never known him.” Sam said.

“I can’t help that.” I said and just then a bushy brown haired girl walked by our compartment and she stopped.

“Can I stay in here?” She asked.

“Sure.” Me and Sam said at the same time and the girl put her trunk away and sat down next to me.

“I’m Hermione Granger.” She said smiling at us.

“I’m Samantha Carlisle, but you can call me Sam.” She said smiling back as she pushed a piece of her red hair behind her ear.

“I’m Emily Potter.” I said smiling at her and her brown eyes grew wide in amazement.

“Holy Cricket!” She said and then blushed, “Sorry, I bet you get that a lot.” She said sheepishly.

“It’s alright and yes I do get that a lot.” I said and she smiled and then we got to talking about our families as the train set off.

“We all know about your family Emily, let’s hear about yours.” Hermione said looking at Sam.

“Well, me mum is a muggle nurse in London and me da works in the Ministry of Magic as an Auror. I have an older brother Matt who is a 3rd year, another older brother by 10 months Jack, who is a second year, Jamie is my other younger brother by 3 years, and Dylan is 7 years younger than me is the baby of the family. We live in Banchville, a small magical village in Scotland.” Sam said and just as she finished a brown curly haired girl came to our compartment.

“Do you girls have room for one more?” the girl asked her blue eyes looking hopeful.

“Sure.” I said and she came in and put her trunk away and her cream colored owl with the rest of our owls.

“ ‘Ello, I’m Elodie Edwards.” She said smiling at us as she sat down next to Sam.

“Hello.” We all 3 said.

“Did you hear the Potter Cousins are coming to Hogwarts?” She said excitedly.

“Your looking at one, I’m Emily Potter.” I said speaking up and her jaw dropped and then she shook her head.

“Have you seen Harry, I would love to meet him.” Elodie said excitedly.

“She hasn’t seen Harry since that fateful night 11 years ago.” Hermione said and Elodie blushed.

“I’m sorry.” She said.

“No, it’s fine. This is Samantha Carlisle, and Hermione Granger.” I said introducing the other two.

“You can call me Sam.” Sam said smiling at her.

“We were just talking about our family backgrounds, what’s yours?” Hermione asked.

“Well, my parents were also killed by Voldermort and I was sent to go live with my uncle. My dad was a muggle teacher and my mum was the Head Auror at the Ministry.” Elodie said with tears forming in her eyes talking about her parents.

“You have a lot more in common in Emily and Harry than any of us here.” Sam said patting Elodie’s hand.

“Thanks I guess, my Uncle Clayton is protective of me and is the most caring muggle I’ve ever known, I don’t have any siblings just me and my cat.” Elodie said and then we got to talking about other things and ate some food off the trolley cart and then we helped a young boy named Neville try to find his toad Trevor. Then we changed into our robes to be ready for Hogwarts.

At Hogwarts……

We took the boats on the Black Lake to the school and it was the most beautiful place I had ever seen in my life. I loved this place just from the outside! We went inside in a huge group and I ran into a blonde haired boy and a blonde haired girl he was walking with on accident.

“Watch where you are going!” the boy said.

“You really should stop gawking at the school and pay attention to where you are going.” the blonde haired girl he was with said with a sneer.

“Come along Kate, we will leave this commoner to gawk at the school.” The boy said and they walked away.

“Draco Malfoy and his girlfriend Kate Sorgenfrei, don’t mess with them, they are destined for Slythrerin.” A brown haired girl said as she walked next to me, Sam, Hermione, and Elodie, “I’m Ana Sophia Coppola.” She said holding out her hand and I took it.

“I’m Emily Potter, this is Sam Carlisle, Hermione Granger, and Elodie Edwards.” I said and again I got the same reaction as the other girls.

“Wow, the rumors on the train were true, you and your cousin have finally come to Hogwarts.” Ana Sophia said.

“Yup.” I said and we kept walking up the stairs and we stopped in front of a tall lady in green robes and a tall black hat.

“Welcome to Hogwarts, I am Professor McGonagall. In just a few moments you will walk through these doors into the great hall and be sorted into your houses.” Professor McGonagall said.

“It’s true then, what they’ve been saying on the train. Harry Potter and Emily Potter have come to Hogwarts.” Draco said walking over to Harry who was a few people in front of me, “I’m Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. I can help you find the right sort here in Hogwarts.” Draco said.

“I’m sure I can find the right sort myself thanks and where is Emily Potter?” Harry asked and I gasped realizing who he was, he was the same boy that was at the zoo that day and let the snake out. That’s why Aunt Mary was acting all weird.

“You’ve never met your own cousin?” Draco asked shocked.

“No, I’ve heard about her being there the night I died but I’ve never met her.” Harry said and then Professor McGonagall came back in the room.

“Follow me.” She said and we all followed her into the Great Hall and it was so beautiful and the night sky was in the ceiling. Was there really a ceiling? We walked toward the front of the room and there was an old pointed hat on a stool and it said a poem and then began sorting us.

Hermione was put in Gryffindor, as was Sam, Elodie, and Ron Weasley who I hadn’t seen in a while, and Ana Sophia was put in Hufflepuff. Then some other students went up including Draco Malfoy and his girlfriend Kate were put in Slytherin, Laila Black was put in Gryffindor, Amaryllis Garnet was put in Ravenclaw, Miranda Jackson was put in Gryffindor, and Allison Lomax was put in Gryffindor. Finally my name was called.

“Emily Potter!” McGonagall yelled and I noticed Harry’s eyes grow wide when he saw me walk up to the hat and she placed the hat on my head and he whispered in my ear.

”Right, you have the brains to be in Ravenclaw, you could go into Hufflepuff, but you don’t have enough patience, but you are brave and have the kind heart of Gryffindor. Hmmmmm… lets see Gryffindor runs in your blood as does Ravenclaw, hmmmm… GRYFFINDOR!” the Sorting hat yelled and everyone at the Gryffindor table cheered and then Harry went up to the Sorting hat and he was placed in Gryffindor. He came over to our table and sat down next to Ron who was across from me.

“Hello, I’m Emily Potter, it’s nice to finally meet you Harry.” I said smiling at him holding out my hand.

“Hello Emily and it is nice to finally meet you.” Harry said shaking my hand smiling at me, “You are a better cousin than my cousin Dudley.” Harry said and I laughed.

I know I am going to really enjoy this school.

A/N: Sorry, so long but the chapters with the years that are written as books are going to be long until I get the 7th year when I can write how what I think the 7th year and beyond should be.

Ok... will answer in an adult manner now ;). But I just can't help myself seeing as I am what? 11 there? Cool age! *grins*

I loved how you recapped the first book so suavely. I mean it jogs the memory and introduces everybody. Perfect! And it's so cute how they are all getting to know each other - all the excitement is so tangible. Love it!

~Chapter 1: Part 2- Year 1~

After we had all eaten Dumbledore gave his speech to the whole school including “No students are to go into the Forbidden Forrest, Mr. Filch, the caretaker, wishes to tell all students not to do magic between classes in the corridors, Qudditch trials will be held in the second week of the term, anyone interested in playing for their house team should contact Madame Hooch. And finally no students are allowed on the 3rd floor corridor on the right hand side, it is out of bounds to everyone who does not wish to die a most painful death.” Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eye and then we all were then dismissed.

Before we left following Percy Weasley the Prefect, a ghost popped up out of no where.

“Ahhhh!” Most of us first years screamed.

“Hello, I’m Nearly Headless Nick, but I prefer Sir Nicholas.” Nearly Headless Nick said.

“Nearly Headless? How can you be Nearly Headless?” Hermione asked.

“Like this.” He said and he pulled on his ear and his head fell onto his shoulder only being held up by one piece of skin like a hinge.

“Ewww.” Me, Sam, Elodie, and Ana Sophia said in unison.

“Gryffindor’s follow me!” Percy yelled at the head of the group. As we walked up the giant staircases they were all moving and we jumped on one that was moving toward the Gryffindor common room and as it moved I lost my balance and ran into a boy. He caught me around the shoulders and I looked into his deep brown eyes and I felt my knees grow weak.

“Are you alright?” He asked.

“I’m fine thank you.” I said regaining my balance and stepping away from him, “I’m Emily Potter.” I said holding out my hand and he took it and shook it.

“I’m Orlando Bloom. It’s a pleasure to meet you Emily.” He said smiling at me, wow he was one of the few people who treated me like a normal person when they first met me. Then we reached the landing and walked up to a portrait of a fat lady.

“Password?” She said.

“Caput Draconis.” Percy said and the portrait sung open to reveal a little stone hallway that led to a warm cozy large common room, it was round with many soft squishy arm chairs and a large fireplace, “This is the Gryffindor common room where you can spend a lot of your time studying, socializing, and etc. Up this spiral staircase is the boys and girls dormitories girls on your left, boys on the right.” Percy said and we all went up the stairs and I noticed Orlando, Harry, Ron, Fred, George, Percy, Neville, and other boys go through the right hand door and I followed Hermione, Sam, and Elodie into the girl’s dormitories and it was so beautiful.

Five 4 poster beds were in the room with deep red, velvet curtains and surprisingly our trunks and animals had already been brought up and put in front of our beds. Hermione was on one side of me and Sam on the other, on the other side of Sam was Elodie, on the other side of Elodie was Laila, then in the room next door to us was Miranda, Allison, Parvati, Lavender, and Katie Bell. Most of the other girls were in our girl’s dormitory tower. Miranda, Lavender, Parvati, and Allison came into our dormitory to talk to us.

“I can’t believe we have Emily Potter in our house.” Miranda said excitedly.

“I am like any other normal person, except-“ I said until Hermione interrupted.

“Your special gift of long lasting memory. It is in Modern Magical History and Great Wizarding events of the 20th century and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts.” Hermione said and I felt my jaw drop, I was in books. Gosh, I didn’t know I was that famous. Well, I guess I kinda did but didn’t want to admit it.

“I’m Miranda Jackson, you can call me Mir for short. I come from one of the richest pureblood families in England. Both my parents work in the Charms section in the Ministry of Magic.” Mir said smiling.

“Hello, it’s nice to meet you.” I said.

“Your family is one of the richest in England?” Laila said with her hazel eyes sparkling.

“Yes, what about your family?” Mir asked.

“I just live with me mum in the wizard part of Wales, me dad is- never around any more. Me mum went to Hogwarts she was in Gryffindor with me dad, her name is Maria, she works in a little wizard bookshop in Wales.” Laila said with her head held down and her dark brunette hair fell in her face like someone else I had seen pictures of before, but I can’t put my finger on it.

“It’s nice to meet you Laila.” I said walking over to her and extending my hand and she shook it smiling.

“It’s nice to meet you too.” She said.

“I’m Allison Lomax. It is a pleasure to meet you all I come from a half blood family. Me dad’s a muggle and me mum is a witch, we live in London and my mum, Nora works at Flourish and Blotts in Diagon Alley and my dad, David Lomax, is the assistant to the Prime Minister in London. We are a pretty rich family and I’m personal friends with the Prince Charles and his family. Dad knew about Mum being a witch when he met her after she had graduated from Hogwarts and they dated for a couple of years and then he proposed to her and they got married one year later.” Allison said and we all looked at her with jaws dropped, “What it’s not like my cousin is the boy who lived and I have the long lasting memory, I just know the Princes of England personally, no big deal.” Allison said sitting down on one of the chairs in the room.

“Well, it’s nice to meet you.” I said and she smiled.

“It’s very nice to meet you too.” She said. And we talked about our family lives and Hogwarts and the other new first years for a couple of hours until Hermione spoke up about the time.

“Well, now that we all have gotten to know each other it is 10 o’clock and we should get some sleep, we have classes tomorrow.” She said and Miranda, Parvati, Allison, and Lavender left our room and we all got a good night sleep.

Next Day and an overview of the year……

We got our schedules and first in the morning we had Herbology, then we had History of Magic, then Charms one of my personal favorites, then Transfiguration another one of my favorites, then Defense Against the Dark Arts, another one of my favorites, then on Fridays we had potions in the morning periods and on Wednesdays astronomy at midnight. Those were how our classes went for the whole year. Everyone I knew were in my classes and some new people I met, Amaryllis, Elijah Wood, John Rhys-Myers and Viggo Mortenson who were in Ravenclaw, Cedric Diggory, Ana Sophia, and Gerard Butler from Hufflepuff, and ofcourse Malfoy, Kate, Crabe and Goyle, and Pansy Parkinson, who didn’t get along with Kate because she also liked Malfoy from Slytherein were in my classes.

Friday Harry and I got our first owls with everybody else.

“I got a letter from Hagrid. He wants me to come down to his hut with him for 3 o’clock tea.” I said and Harry looked at me.

“He wants me to come down too.” Harry said and we wrote Hagrid back and told him they would meet him for tea. Ron, Harry, and I went down for 3 o’clock tea and Hagrid almost, well he did cry seeing me and Harry finally together again.

Then the next week we had flying lessons and Harry got in a fight with Malfoy over a rememberal and he became the new Gryffindor seeker because of his flying. Then one night we were walking around the corridors after dinner.

“So, I told Proffesor Binns he had that information wrong and he looked at me like I was crazy.” Hermione said as we were walking up to the Gryffindor tower with Harry, Ron, Sam, Elodie, Neville, and Orlando.

“Hey Sam! SAM!” Gerry yelled running up after us.

“Yes?” She said stopping on the steps.

“You left your Herbology book in the Great Hall.” Gerry said handing her book to her.

“Thanks.” She said smiling at him and he blushed a little and then Filch yelled at us and we ran into the nearest corridor.

“Wait a minute, we’re in the 3rd floor corridor, we’re not supposed to be here.” Hermione said. Then we all heard Filch coming closer.

“Run!” Harry said and we all ran towards a door at the end of the hall and Ron and Orlando tried to open it.

“It’s locked.” Ron said frustrated.

“Oh move over!” Hermione said, “Alohomora!” Hermione said and the door unlocked. And we all ran into the room.

“Why was that door locked?” I asked.

“That’s why.” Sam said with a squeaky voice and we looked at where she was looking and there was a large 3 headed dog looking at us.

“Nice doggy, good doggy.” Orlando said.

“AHHHHHHHHH!!!!” We all yelled and the dog began barking at us and we quickly ran back through the door and back towards Gryffindor tower and Gerry ran down to the to the Hufflepuff house.

That was our first experience with something strange for the first year and they on Halloween the next thing happened. Everyone was all eating dinner except for Me, Hermione, Laila, Miranda, Amaryllis, Sam, and Elodie. Allison, Lavender, and Paravti were getting some food for us in the Great Hall when we heard a loud banging sound.

“Hermione, come on out. Lets all go up to the Great Hall for some dinner and meet the rest for Dinn-“ I said and then I suddenly stopped when I noticed the giant troll in the doorway to the girls bathroom.

“Oh my God.” Amaryllis said backing up against the wall, with Miranda, Elodie, Sam, Laila, Hermione, and I following her and then we ducked underneath the stalls as the troll swung his club at us and Harry, Ron, Orlando, Gerry, Elijah, Allison, John, and Viggo came running into the bathroom.

“Girls move!” Harry yelled and we moved under the rubble of what was the bathroom stalls over to the sinks and hid under there.

“Use your wands!” I yelled.

“WHAT?!?” Orlando, Harry, Ron, Gerry, Elijah and the guys yelled.

“USE YOUR WANDS!!” Me, Amaryllis, Miranda, Hermione, and the other girls yelled. Just then Harry was picked up by the Troll and he began swinging his club at him. “USE THE LEVITATION SPELL WE LEARNED TODAY IN CHARMS!!!” Hermione and I yelled. Then the boys yelled the spell we had learned earlier in the day in charms class and the club began floating in midair and hit him on the head. Then Harry fell to the ground just as the Troll fell too.

“What is going on here?!” Professor McGonagall yelled running into the bathroom with Snape, and Quirrell behind her. “Explain yourselves!” She yelled at all of us standing there with plaster and wood chips and dust all over us girls and the boys standing there with their wands out.

“Well, you see……” The boys started to say stammering.

“It’s my fault Professor. I came in here thinking I could handle the Troll and the girls here followed me and then the boys found us and if they didn’t we girls probably would be dead.” Hermione said and Professor McGonagall looked at her shocked.

“Not many can fight a Troll and live to tell the tale. 5 points will be taken from Gryffindor from your actions Miss Granger and 5 points will be awarded to each of you in this room to each of your houses, for sheer dumb luck.” Professor McGonagall said.

“You b-better get go-going, he might w-wake up.” Professor Quirrell stammered and we all quickly ran out of there.

“Thanks for saving us.” I said to the boys.

“It was nothing.” Harry and the boys said sheepishly and then I ran over to Harry, Orlando, Ron, Gerry, Elijah, John, and Viggo and I kissed them all on the cheek and the other girls except Hermione followed my example. After that we went back to our common rooms for the rest of the night.

That wasn’t even all of the weird stuff that happened this year. The next day Harry had his first Qudditch match and his broom was jinxed, then we learned the name of that 3 headed dog from Hagrid, who trained it! It’s name is Fluffy and it is guarding the Sorcerers stone! So, then came finally Christmas break.

“Hermione, I didn’t know you were heading home for Christmas break?” I asked as I dragged my trunk downstairs and noticed her with her trunk.

“Yes, I decided to go home. Orlando, Harry, Ron, Elijah, Sam, Elodie, and Miranda are staying here and are going to research the Sorcerer’s Stone while the rest of us are gone.” Hermione said and I noticed Harry and Ron in the Great Hall playing Wizards Chess. I walked over with my trunk and sat down next to Harry.

“Are you sure you don’t want to come to Aunt Mary and Uncle Jim’s for Christmas? You’ll get to meet Lilly and Jack. Aunt and Uncle would love to have you, they are part of your family too.” I said trying to convince him to come.

“Thanks Emily for the offer, but I want to stay here. Plus I have some researching to do in the Restricted section of the Library. I will send Hedwig to send you a Happy Christmas letter around Christmas.” Harry said smiling at me.

“Alright, I will send Narnia to you too. Happy Christmas.” I said and I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek goodbye and said goodbye to Ron and then Orlando came running in with Elodie.

“Hello Emily, wait your leaving?” Orlando said and Elodie stopped running.

“What?!” She said surprised, “I thought you were gonna stay and help research.” She said.

“No, I’m going home to spend Christmas with my Aunt and Uncle. I will send my Christmas gifts to you guys when I get home.” I said and I hugged Elodie goodbye.

“Goodbye and we will send our gifts to you too.” Orlando said and he hugged me and then I said goodbye to the rest of the group and left. I sat with Hermione, Allison, Laila, and Amaryllis on the way back. John, Viggo, and Gerry sat together in a compartment near ours. I slept most of the way and I was so happy to see my Aunt and Uncle on the platform to meet me when I got home.

“EMILY!!” They yelled and I ran into their open arms and they hugged me close and kissed me. I talked the whole way home about everyone I met and about Harry and I swear I saw my Aunt and Uncle crying when I talked about Harry. It turned out Aunt Mary knew Hermione’s parents and was pretty good friends with them, so that was interesting to hear and she told me about how she heard from Mrs. Granger about me meeting Harry on the first day.

Christmas was wonderful and I got loads of presents from my Aunt and Uncle and from my friends at Hogwarts, Harry sent me a book about flying and it made me feel special, but there was one gift that didn’t have a name on it under the tree and it was a purple and gold cloak.

“Aunt Mary and Uncle Jim, did you get this for me. It says on the card ‘Your father left this to me to give to you before he died, you uncle had one just like it, so your cousin will receive one too, use it well.’ Are you two playing a trick on me?” I asked looking at them and they looked at each other shocked and then at me.

“Emily, we didn’t write that card and we didn’t know about that cloak. Put it on, I have a irking feeling what it is.” Uncle Jim said and I put it on and my body disappeared.

“Where is my body?!” I said surprised.

“It’s under the cloak, that is an invisibility cloak!” Uncle Jim said shocked.

“A what?!” Aunt Mary and I said in unison.

“An invisibility cloak, James and your father had one, I remember them playing tricks on people with them. The gift must’ve been from Dumbledore. Only use it for good, never for evil or to play tricks on people, those cloaks can cause much danger.” Uncle Jim said and I knew what I was going to use this for.

Once I got back to school I realized Harry ahd received one too and he found a mirror, called the Mirror of Erasid, that should your hearts desire. He should me with our cloaks where to find it and I looked into the Mirror and I saw my parents, I cried that night and Harry whispered in my ear.

“Don’t cry Emily, I saw my parents too and we both have the same wish, to see our parents. I feel your pain.” He said as he held me in his arms while I cried and I knew I did truly have a friend in my cousin, he will only be the true one who understands my feelings.

Throughout the rest of the year we slowly began to realize what the Sorcerer’s Stone could do and we knew we had to save it from Snape. So, we decided one night to go and get the stone. Me, Hermione, Elodie, and Sam, crowded under my cloak while Harry, Ron and Orlando were under Harry’s cloak. We opened the door into Fluffy’s room and realized Snape had already been there.

“See the harp, he’s already been here.” Harry said.

“He put a spell on the harp, we got to hurry.” I said as the cloak from Fluffy’s snoring was lifted off of me and the girls and the same happened to Harry.

“Now if anything happens get yourselves out of here.” Harry said to all of us.

“I’m not leaving you Harry, you go, I go.” I said and he stared at me and then back at Orlando.

“If anything happens Orlando, make sure Emily gets out safely.” Harry said and then all the sudden it got very quiet.

“Why is it so quiet?” Elodie asked.

“The harp, it stopped playing.” Hermione said.

“That means…”Sam said and just then Ron looked up and went pale white.

“Jump!” Harry said and we all jumped down into the door underneath Fluffy’s feet. We landed on a large plant.

“Lucky this plant thing was here.” Ron said laughing nervously.

“Yeah, it really broke our fall.” Elodie said laughing with him. Just then some of the plants tentacles grabbed at us and had a tight grip on us.

“Whoa!” Harry yelled as they really started to grip tight.

“Oh, God we are never gonna get out of here!” I said struggling against it’s tight bonds.

“Stop moving, just relax. It’s the Devil’s Snare if you keep moving it will strangle you to death.” Hermione said being calm as she sat still.

“Oh yeah, we can really relax now!” Orlando said pulling harder against his bonds as did the rest of us. All the sudden Hermione slipped through the Devil’s Snare’s grip and fell underneath it.

“HERMIONE!” We all yelled and then we heard her hit something hard.

“Just realx! Trust me!” She yelled up at us and I noticed Elodie, Harry, Orlando, and Sam immediately relax, so I decided to let my feelings take over and I trusted Hermione and I relaxed immediately I felt the grips loosen. Just then I saw Elodie fall, then Harry, then Sam, and then Orlando and then I felt the grips completely let go of me and I fell and was caught by Orlando and Harry.

“Thanks boys.” I said as they put me down.

“No problem.” They both said and Ron was screaming scared and he wasn’t relaxing.

“He’s not gonna relax is he?!” Sam yelled with a worried tone in her voice.

“I know a spell from Herbology, Devil’s Snare is deadly fun but will sulk in the sun!” Hermione yelled and she said the spell for sunlight and shot it up at the plant and then it gave an ugly shriek and let Ron go and he fell to the floor.

“Luck we didn’t panic.” Ron said blushing bright red and brushing off some leaves from the plant off his shirt.

“Lucky Hermione pays attention in Herbology.” Harry said glaring at Ron and we moved on. We walked through the next door and into a room with keys flying all over the whole tower room and a broom floating in the middle of the room. We saw a door on the other side and ran to it but it was locked.

“Alohamora!” Ron, Orlando, Sam, Elodie, and Hermione yelled at the door.

“We need to find a key.” Harry said.

“Like that’s gonna be easy.” Orlando said looking up at the keys flying around.

“It probably is an old one, maybe rusty.” Elodie said.

“There up there! The one with the broken wing!” Sam yelled pointing toward an old rusty key with a broken wing. We all ran over to the broom and Harry hesitated in front of it.

“Oh come on Harry, if Snape can fly on that old broom so can you.” Ron said.

“You’re the youngest seeker in a century and the best on the Gryffindor team, you can do it.” Elodie said patting him on the shoulder.

“I’ll do it.” Harry said and once he got on the broom all the keys went towards him and he flew fast up near the rafters.

“He can’t see it and get it all the other keys are getting in his way.” Ron said.

“Then I’m gonna help him.” I said and I ran around the room trying to find another broom and I then stopped and I thought really hard at where a broom could be and then all the sudden a closet appeared out of no where and ran to it and inside was a broom.

“Where did that broom closet come from?” Sam asked running over.

“I don’t know, I just wished there was a broom closet and all the sudden there was one over here.” I said jumping onto the broom and immediately all the keys began flying away from Harry and towards me. “Uh-oh, I’ve got to fly.” I said and I flew up towards the rafters and then flew close to Harry so he could find the broken key in the group.

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?!” He yelled at me and he grabbed at the key in the group and we both were getting cut by the keys and their wings.

“HELPING YOU!! NOW GET THAT KEY!!” I yelled and he then flew at the broken key, while I distracted the other keys.

“I GOT IT! CATCH IT GUYS!!!” Harry yelled down at everyone else and he tossed the key to Hermione and she opened the door and Harry and I flew through the door and landed hard on the floor.

“I didn’t know you were that good of a flyer?!” Harry said as everyone stared at me and Harry in shock.

“It runs in the family, but I don’t really want to play Qudditch.” I said and they all looked at me like I was crazy.

“You would be amazing for the team! You have to try out next year!” Ron and Orlando said.

“Let’s just keep moving.” Hermione said rolling her eyes and we continued and walked into a dark room that was like a cemetery.

“Where are we?” I asked as we walked on the black and white marble floor.

“We’re on a chess board.” Ron said as these torches on the sides of the giant board lit up the whole room.

“Oh my God.” Elodie said and Hermione looked around in shock, we all began to walk towards the other side to the door, when the pieces in front of the door brandished their swords at us.

“Now what?” Sam asked gulping.

“We play. There are only 3 spots not filled on our side, Harry, and Hermione you two are gonna play with me. The rest of you lot sit on the side lines and keep watch.” Ron said and they got into position and played. We all watched in terror and fear and anticipation to make sure we would win. Then Ron decided to sacrifice himself.

“RON NO!!” Sam yelled.

“NO, YOU CAN’T!!” Hermione yelled.

“Ron, please don’t! There has to be another way!” I yelled.

“No, it has to be this way!” Ron yelled and he moved and called check and then the queen on the opposing side stabbed his horse and it exploded and Ron flew off the horse on the floor unconscious. Sam got up and was about to run towards him when Orlando grabbed her.

“No, don’t forget they are still playing.” He whispered in her ear. Harry then moved and was check mate and we won. We all ran onto the board and toward Ron.

“I want all of you to stay here and help get Ron back and send an Owl to Dumbledore about what is going on. Me and Emily are going on.” Harry said and I looked at him surprised.

“I thought you-“ I started to say until he stopped me.

“This is our fight, we went through an evil dark lord who killed both our parents and it is our mission to fight him and Snape. I couldn’t do this without you.” Harry said and we smiled at each other.

“Take care Harry.” Elodie said as she tackled him in a hug and kissed his cheek.

“You’re a great wizard Harry. And you’re an amazing witch Emily” Hermione said smiling at him.

“Be careful Emily and Harry.” Orlando said and he hugged me and kissed my forehead, “Come back safe.” He whispered to me and then Sam hugged us both.

“You guys need to come back, fight this and fight Snape.” Sam said and then we walked away from them and went through the other door. As we walked through the other, my head started to hurt and I heard the screaming and everything from my nightmares in my head. I collapsed to the floor with tears falling down my face and the sounds of the memory playing in my head.

“Emily? Emily! What’s wrong? Emily, speak to me!” Harry said falling to the floor next to me and holding me in his arms.

“I hear them. I hear them screaming. I hear him casting spells on them, I hear the dark lord’s laughter. I hear you crying. Make it stop, make it stop!” I cried and Harry pulled away from me and made me look him in the eyes.

“What do you hear?” he asked and suddenly it all stopped, but I had a major headache.

“I heard- I’ll explain later, let’s just move on.” I said standing up and wiping my eyes.

“Ah- nevermind.” Harry said and we walked down these dark steps and into an amp theater like space and there was Professor Quirrell in front of the Mirror of Erasid.

“You?” We both said in shock and Quirrell just smirked at us. He explained his story and then a voice came from out of the shadows somewhere and I knew that voice.

“Let me see them.” It said.

“I know that voice.” I whispered to Harry and he stared at me and then back at Quirrell who was untying his turban and what stared back at us was the most ugly sight I had ever seen. It was Voldermort living off of the back of his head.

“Ah, Harry it’s good to see you. And Emily, the one who I let live and shouldn’t have, still having nightmares?” He said with an evil sneer.

“You vile, evil creature! You killed my innocent parents and my innocent Aunt and Uncle. I have nightmares about you and I hear your voice and laughter in those nightmares. I hear my parents and my Aunt and Uncle scream as they die and fight for us. I will remember one day everything you did and I will tell the story of you evil works you did that night. No one knows the real story of what you did.” I yelled walking towards him but Harry held me back. Voldermort just laughed at me.

“You silly girl. You’re never going to fully remember that night, it will only live in your nightmares, plus you don’t scare me.” Voldermort said.

“Trust me, one day I will.” I mumbled and Harry looked at me and then back at Voldermort.

“Now look into the mirror Harry. Tell me what you see.” Quirrell said and then Harry walked over to the mirror and while he was over there, I looked around the room for a way out and trying to figure out a plan to get out of there. Suddenly, Voldermort yelled.

“GIVE ME THE STONE!!” He yelled and I looked at Harry’s pockets and there was something sticking out in one, then I realized Quirrell was coming at him. I ran in front of Harry and kicked Quirrell in the chest and he fell to the ground hitting the back of his head on the hard stone floor.

“Don’t touch Harry!” I yelled, “You don’t deserve the right to have the stone!” I yelled and Voldermort screamed.

“Get her later! Get that stone!” Voldermort screamed as Quirrell got up and he went toward Harry and then Harry grabbed his hand and pushed him away and then his hand started to disintegrate.

“What is this magic?” he screamed and Harry and I looked at each other. I ran over and grabbed his other hand and it began to disintegrate.

“Get the stone!” Voldermort yelled and Harry looked at me and nodded. We ran towards Quirrell and both grabbed his face and it began to disintegrate and I fell to the floor. Before he totally disintegrated he kicked me in the head and I was knocked out cold.

I woke up in the Hospital Wing the next morning with Harry in another bed next to me. I had loads of gifts as did Harry. Once we were both better we went to the last feast and Gryffindor won the House cup. The next day we went home on the train and it was strange going home, but I couldn’t wait to start the next year.

End year One

Hey before I begin my review, I just wanna say how weird it was for me because I woke up earlier than usual and I had a feeling that you updated, but didn't want to jinx myself so I waited. Then I finally got up and saw you updated!!! Weird.

I loved this chapter, it feels like I'm rereading the first book and rewatching the first movie. I loved how all of us helped Harry, Ron and Hermione. So awesome!

Uii...
Wow I feel like in the movie - how can they do a whole year in that shart a time! But other than the movie I wasn't angry at you for shortening ;).
Really nice update :hug:
It's so cool to read this in this new way. *griiins* And I' welsh... I would love to be welsh.

You surpised me with the way Emily is involved in everything Harry is, I kind of expected her to tell a different story than Harry's - cause he did his thing and she hers but I rally like it this way. It's a cool idea.

more soon?

Whoa, it was a quick ride, a whole year in a chapter! But it's cool to go through harry's story from another POV.

And, the line about Laila's dad not being 'round intrigued me... I wonder if she had a big black dog escorting her around...

~Chapter 2: Part 1- Year 2~

Ah, summer. I love summer, but I now began to hate summer, because it meant I had to stay home and not go to Hogwarts. I fell in love with Hogwarts my first year there, even though there were some interesting and emotional experiences.

Anyways, I was packing my bags on a warm July day, to go over to visit my cousin Harry. I had finally convinced my aunt and uncle to let me go to Privet Drive to visit Harry. They had warned me about Mr. and Mrs. Dursley and how they hated magical people but I didn’t care, they were just gonna have to deal with me for a couple of days. I was going to visit my cousin for his birthday and that’s that.

I had finished packing and went down stairs. I grabbed my green hoodie sweatshirt off my desk chair, that said “Don’t mess with the Irish.” on the back in gold letters with a gold snitch in flight that Allison sent to me from her trip to Ireland where she watched an Ireland Qudditch match. I carried my book bag and suitcase downstairs. I knew I was going to be coming back before I went back to Hogwarts.

“Now, Emily be careful and mind your manners. Also, if anything happens to you, give us a ring or send an owl to us or the Weasley’s or under desperate circumstances wave your wand lit in the sky and the Knight Bus will come and pick you up and bring you back here.” Uncle Jim said hugging me close.

“I will be careful Uncle Jim and if anything happens, I will let you know.” I said and then I heard the Ministry taxi honk his horn outside and I hugged my aunt and uncle goddbye one last time and then left to get on the taxi.

Some hours later…..

I ahd finally arrived at number four Privet Drive and I walked slowly up to the door and rang the doorbell. I knew exactly how I was going to act, so they would have no choice but to let me in.

Just then the door opened and Mr. Dursley was in the doorway.

“Hello Mr. Mason and Mrs.- Who are you?!” He said surprised and puzzled at who I was.

“Hello, I’m Emily Potter, Harry cousin. It is so nice to meet you Mr. Dursley.” I said holding out my hand for him to shake but he just stared at it and then I walked passed him in the doorway into his house, “Wow, nice place you have, very uh, clean.” I said and then I noticed a plump boy sitting in the living room staring at me, “Oh you must be Dudley, it is a pleasure to meet you, I’m Emily Potter, Harry’s other cousin.” I said walking over to him and holding out my hand but he just cringed away from me.

“Vernon, was Mr. Mason at the- Oh my God! Who are you?!?” Mrs. Dursley yelled noticing me in the living room standing next to Dudley and Mr. Dursley just stared at me dumbfounded and his face slightly turning purple.

“Hello, you must be Mrs. Dursley, I’m Emily Potter, Harry’s cousin. You are Aunt Lily’s sister aren’t you?” I asked knowing very well the answer but Mrs. Dursley just stared at me as her face turned white.

“WHERE ARE YOUR MANNERS CHILD?!?! DO YOU JUST NORMALLY WALK INTO PEOPLE’S HOUSES?!?!” Mr. Dursley finally yelled at me.

“Goodness, you don’t have to yell. I sent a owl to Harry telling him I was coming, but obviously you three didn’t get the message. I am here for a couple of days visiting Harry on his birthday, since today is his birthday.” I said sweetly and the 3 of them stared at me confused, shocked, and angry.

“HARRY POTTER!!! GET IN HERE!!” Mr. Dursley yelled and Harry came running inside from the backyard.

“Yes Uncle- Oh my, Emily!” He yelled when he saw me and he ran over and hugged me.

“Happy Birthday Harry.” I said and he pulled away, “Didn’t you get my letter I was coming, I sent it 2 weeks ago.” I said and he looked at me confused.

“I haven’t gotten any letters from anyone, but it is so good to see you.” He said and he hugged me again and then Mr. Dursley cleared his throat.

“Did you get a letter from this girl that she was coming?” Mr. Dursley asked trying to stay calm.

“My name is Emily.” I said really not liking this man, but Harry ignored my comment.

“No, I haven’t received any letters from my friends. I didn’t know Uncle Vernon.” Harry said.

“Who would write to you anyway?” Dudley said pushing past Harry.

“Well, she can not stay here. That girl will have to go home to her freaky parents.” Mr. Dursley said glaring at me.

“My name is Emily and my parents weren’t freaky, they were great and plus they are dead. And don’t even try to say whoever I live with is freaky because my aunt is a muggle and my uncle is one of the best wizards.” I said defiantly tired of this guy and I must’ve said something wrong because Mr. Dursley’s face turned red and purple and Dudley grabbed his mother and she grabbed him.

“NEVER USE THAT W WORD IN THIS HOUSEHOLD! GET HER OUT OF HERE OR I WILL!!!” Mr. Dursley said and he came toward me about to grab me when Harry stepped in front of him.

“Don’t touch her! If you do I will call the bobbies and they will arrest you for abuse!” Harry said in his face and Mr. Dursley snorted and stepped away.

“Fine, she can stay but any funny business, she goes and I don’t care what you do. Now where will you two be when the Mason’s arrive any moment?” Mr. Dursley said.

“We will be in my room pretending we’re not there.” Harry said in a monotone voice.

“Too right, now get up there and that girl will be sleeping in your room!” Mr. Dursley yelled as Harry helped me carry my stuff up to his room.

“MY NAME IS EMILY!! EM-ILY! GET IT RIGHT!!” I yelled back down the stairs and Harry showed me to his room.

“It is so good to see you, I’ve been missing all of you-“ Harry said as opened his door and then he stopped suddenly and I stopped with him. There was a little creature with big green eyes and bat like ears sitting on his bed. The creature jumped off the bed and bowed down to me and Harry.

“Er- Hello.” Harry and I said nervously as we shut his door.

“Harry Potter! Emily Potter! I’m so glad I found both of you together.” The creature said with a high-pitched voice, “ My name is Dobby sir and miss, Dobby the house-elf.” He said.

“A what?” Harry said confused.

“A house elf, Allison has two named Binky and Tinky at her house, she told me about them. They are like servants.” I said and Harry nodded.

“I don’t mean to be rude, but this isn’t the greatest time in the world for me to have a house-elf.” Harry said and Dobby hung his head.

“Harry!” I said and then I covered for him, “We are pleased to meet you, we both are happy you are here, but why are you here?” I asked.

“Well, it is very difficult to begin.” He said.

“Why don’t you sit down.” Harry said and then Dobby began crying, “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to offend you.” Harry said quickly.

“Offend Dobby! Dobby has just never been treated like an equal around wizards.” Dobby said.

“You can’t have met very decent wizards then.” Harry said.

“Harry!” I hissed at him.

“No I haven’t. Oh no I shouldn’t have said that.” Dobby said and he walked over to the dresser and started banging his head and we both immediately ran to him and tried pulling him away from the dresser.

“Don’t Dobby, stop!” Harry hissed.

“Dobby, please stop.” I said and we both finally hissed stop at him and he stopped.

“Sorry, Dobby had to punish himself, he spoke ill of his family.” Dobby said.

“Do they know you are here?” Harry asked.

“Oh no, no. I will have to punish myself when I get back after seeing you, if they ever knew-“ Dobby said.

“Won’t they notice you punishing yourself?” I asked.

“They hardly ever notice, because I almost always have to punish myself. I can’t just escape either, we have to be set free.” Dobby said.

“Why did you have to speak to both of us?” I asked finally getting tired of this game of back and forth questions.

“Harry and Emily Potter must not go back to Hogwarts.” Dobby said.

“W-What?!” Harry and I stammered.

“But I’ve got to go back, my family is there, my friends, my life. Everything is at Hogwarts for me.” I said feeling the sting of tears in the back of my eyes.

“But I’ve got to go back too, Hogwarts is what keeps me going, I don’t belong here, it is terrible here, you don’t know what it’s like, I belong at Hogwarts, I belong in the wizarding world.” Harry said desperately.

“No, no, no, The Potter’s must stay where they’re safe. If the Potter’s go back to Hogwarts they will be in mortal danger.” Dobby said.

“That’s nothing new.” I mumbled.

“This is no joke.” Dobby said and I kept my mouth closed.

“Why?” Harry asked confused.

“There is a plot, a plot to make most terrible things happen at Hogwarts this year. You two must not put yourselves in peril, you are too important.” Dobby whispered.

“What terrible things?” I asked.

“Who’s plotting them?” Harry asked and just then Dobby began banging his head on the wall and then we heard Mr. Dursley’s feet come pounding up the stairs and Harry pushed Dobby in the closet and I opened my suitcase fast and began unpacking acting like I was unpacking.

“What the devil are you two doing up here?” He said through gritted teeth as he opened the door.

“Nothing.” Harry said leaning casually against the closet door.

“I’m just unpacking and I dropped my books, I’m sorry.” I said holding up some of my books I bought at Flourish and Blotts for reading.

“One more sound boy and you will wish you had never been born and you missy keep quiet too.” Mr. Dursley said angry and he shut the door and went back downstairs.

“You see what it is like here, I have to go back, where my friends are.” Harry said letting Dobby out.

“Friends who don’t even write to you?” Dobby said.

“How do you know I haven’t been getting letters from my friends?” Harry asked puzzled.

“Harry Potter, mustn’t be angry with Dobby, he did it for the best sir, he was going to stop Emily’s too, but that was too much to handle.” Dobby said stammering.

“You’ve been stopping my letters?” Harry hissed angrily and Dobby held them out.

“You can have them if you don’t go back to Hogwarts.” Dobby said.

“Give me those.” Harry said.

“Dobby, stop being crazy and give him the letters.” I said calmly walking over to them. Harry reached out for them and then Dobby ran out of the room downstairs swiftly and Harry ran after him and I quietly followed behind.

“Dobby get back here!” Harry hissed once he reached the bottom of the stairs at Dobby who was quietly going into the kitchen. I then noticed that Dobby was going towards the giant Purple masterpiece of Pudding. Uh-oh.

“Say you both won’t go back to school!” Dobby whispered back.

“No!” We hissed back at him in unison.

“Then you Potter’s leave me no choice.” Dobby said and he snapped his fingers and the Pudding went floating up into the air and landed on some lady’s head who was evidently Mrs. Mason. Dobby vanished and Harry and I stood dumbfounded at the mess that was made. Uncle Vernon tried to cover up the whole situation and soon the Mason’s left, then he rounded on me and Harry.

“THAT’S IT!! YOU ARE GONE!! OUT ONTO THE STREETS! GET OUT OF MY HOUSE YOU CRAZY CHILD OF WICKED PEOPLE!! OOOUUUUUUTTTTTT!!!” He yelled angrily as he grabbed my wrists and threw me out onto his doorstep and soon my messenger book bag and suitcase followed. I heard Harry yell some nasty things at his uncle about throwing me out but then I heard his uncle yell at how he was going to put bars on Harry’s windows and loc him up forever in his room.

There was something I had to do, so I walked down the street with my wand at ready and I found a pay phone, and I dialed the only house I knew to call.

“E-Ello?” Hermione said answering the phone.

“Hi Hermione, it’s Emily. I know it’s kind of late but I need a place to stay, can I come to your house for the night and then I will leave the next day.” I asked.

“What happened?” Hermione asked and then I told her my story of what happened at Harry’s.

“So, tomorrow morning I will leave your house and go over to the Weasley’s to see what they can do to help me and if you want you can come along too.” I said.

“I would love to come along with you tomorrow, but I can’t I’ve got to go visit my Grandmum for a couple of days, but you can stay they night. How will you get here?” Hermione asked.

“I’ll get a taxi. I will see you in about an hour alright?” I said.

“Alright, I will see you when you get here.” Hermione said and I hung up the phone and dialed a taxi service and they came in under 10 minutes. About 40 minutes later I arrived at the Granger household. I rang the doorbell and Hermione answered the door in her grey robe with her blue PJ pants on underneath with a blue 3 quarter length sleeve shirt.

“Oh Emily are you alright?” She asked pulling me into a hug as I came inside.

‘I’m fine, just bruised on my behind from being kicked out of the Dursley household, but Harry is worse off than me. He is being locked up in his room at there house forever, not being let out to go to school or anything.” I said and she led me upstairs to her room, but then we stopped, she knocked on a door and opened the door and I saw her parents sitting in their bed, Mrs. Granger reading some romance novel and her father watching the 11 o’clock BBC evening news.

“Mum, Dad, you remember Emily, she will be staying in my room for the night.” Hermione said.

“Hello Emily.” Mr. Granger said.

“Hello Mr. Granger, Hello Mrs. Granger.” I said.

“Hello Emily, sleep well tonight and do you need a ride tomorrow morning?” Mrs. Granger asked.

“No Mrs. Granger, I think I can get a ride, but thank you for the offer. Good night.” I said.

“Goodnight mum, goodnight dad.” Hermione said and her parents waved goodnight and Hermione shut the door and we then went into the room across the hall into Hermione’s room. I settled into the sleeping bag she gave me and the pillow and soon fell asleep. But I didn’t have sweet dreams nor did I really have a nightmare….

I was walking in a garden, but it wasn’t me walking, I was being held by someone, they leaned down to look at me but the face was fuzzy but I heard the sweetest voice in the world.

“Emily we are going to visit your Aunt and Uncle James and Lily.” She said as she held me close on the chilly evening, I could even feel the cold air around me.

“Now Kate, tomorrow we need to go to Diagon Alley and get some supplies for the house.” The man said walking next to us.

“Yes, Jack and while we’re there I should get a new cookbook, since I am staying home more now and I want to learn some new recipes.” Kate said.

It were my parents I was dreaming about, but I wasn’t dreaming, it was a memory, my mother’s gift was finally working. Maybe it was beginning to work more because I was learning more magic, but I wasn’t sure if that was the reason why. Then we walked up to a cottage style door and then everything went black and I then heard someone calling me……


“Emily. Emily, wake up Emily. Emily!” Hermione said and I woke up to see her fully dressed and looking at me worried, “Emily, you are completely pale. Are you alright?” She asked.

“I’m fine, but I just feel really exhausted. I heard my parents in my dream last night.” I said slowly sitting up, why did I feel so exhausted.

“Did you have another one of those memory nightmares from your Memory curse?” Hermione asked.

“It wasn’t a nightmare this time, I just saw through my eyes as a baby as I was going to visit Harry and my Aunt and Uncle, I heard my parents talking but I couldn’t see their faces. I think the spell my mother put on me is starting to work.” I said.

“Yes, with a curse like that when it begins to get stronger you get weaker as you see more and hear more of the memory form that night, that’s why you are so weak, it took most of your magical strength to see what you saw last night and to hear what you heard, so if you saw the whole memory it could be dangerous to you and your magic, unless you’ve been fully trained. That’s probably why you haven’t been able to see stuff before, because you weren’t that powerful yet in your magic, so who knows later on this year from more magical training at Hogwarts you could see more or hear more from that night.” Hermione said and I looked at her confused and then understood what she said 2 minutes later.

I had sent an owl the night before to the Weasley’s to come and pick me up and after I had changed and packed up, Mr. Weasley came to pick me up and I thanked Hermione and her parents for letting me stay and I got into Mr. Weasley’s car and he drove me to the Burrow. I was still extremely tired and I fell asleep in his car and soon we arrived at the Burrow.

I went inside and Mrs. Weasley gave me a huge hug and showed me upstairs to Ginny’s room that I was going to share with her for a few nights before I went back home to my Aunt and Uncle’s. I put my stuff away and then went downstairs, but once I reached the bottom step, I saw 3 red headed boys attack me in a hug.

“EMILY!!” Ron, Fred and George yelled as they tackled me to the floor in a hug.

“Hey boys!” I said and then I kicked them off and Ron helped me up.

“So what’s the news of Harry?” Ron asked.

“I need you help in helping Harry make a big escape from his Aunt and Uncle’s.” I said with an evil grin, we were gonna save Harry and then go to Hogwarts and have a great year, well at least I hope a great year.

A/N: Sorry, it took me so long to get this chapter to you guys, I have been so busy starting a new job, writing a big research paper, and getting ready for midterms that I had to put stories on the backburner. I will try and update part 2 and (probably) part 3 as soon as possible.

That's ok Kit-Kat :hug:

At least you got the chapter out.....and I thought that the chapter was great! This is starting to become really fasinating!

Keep up the good work! :D :yay:

LijsSunshine06 - November 20, 2006 11:20 AM (GMT)
It's okay lady, at least you had a chapter ready for us.

I loved it, I loved how Emily didn't take any shit from the Dursley's. I always feel bad for Harry though, but it's so cool that she's the one who comes up with the idea of rescuing Harry.

And Dobby, awww I :love: Dobby. He means well.

Anyhoo can't wait to see more, I'm gonna try and update some of my stuff soon especially because it's a short week. Good luck on midterms and your paper. I know what you're going through-----ready to rip your hair out yet? Relax.

:)

Alright, here is my HUGE appology for my lack of updating but life just all the sudden got hectic in the last month (like applying to colleges, startinga new job, etc.) and I haven't had much time to write and I am extremely sorry. I am right now working on an update since I finally have some time (when I am not at school or working) to get some writing done. Please forgive me for my lack of updating and I promise to have more soon. Thanks :hug:
