Watching the movies

A blast to the past

31/10/1976, Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Scotland.

The morning started out as any other one did, except it was Halloween or All Hallow's Eve and in this school, all Hallow's Eve is a special occasion. A boy with raven coloured hair named James Potter or Prongs was staring at his girlfriend, who had finally caved and decided to date him, the girl was Lily Evans. As a boy with sandy blonde hair and brown eyes named Remus Lupin was helping his friends to plan there next prank. Peter Pettigrew and Sirius Black complete the group of four friends called the marauders. A sudden bang echoed through the hall as a letter appeared infront of the deputy headmistress, Professor Minerva McGonagall. She opened the letter and read it out aloud.
Dear students and teachers of the past generation,
A pack of eight movies shall appear once you've finished reading this letter. The reason we wanted to do this was to prevent deaths and other cases in the future, also some friends will be joining you before you start watching the movies. Only the guests and Minerva McGonagall are allowed to use magic in the hall as we don't want anyone to end up in St mungo's hospital with critical injuries. Time outside the hall shall stop once the guests arrive. Enjoy the movies, sincerely the next future generation...

The moment Minerva finished reading the letter, another bang echoed through the hall as a small cluster of people appeared, all wearing black cloaks with hoods. "I'm assuming you're the guests mentioned in the letter." Said McGonagall as the group nods, only making the hall more curious. "Well then, please introduce yourselves." Stated McGonagall as a feminine figure stepped forward and said "Merry meet, I'm Hermione Granger, first generation witch and was a Gryffindor." The figure took off her hood to reveal a young lady, no older than 23 years old. Another figure stepped forward, but unlike Hermione, his figure was more masculine. "Merry greetings, I'm Ronald Weasley, pureblood and was a Gryffindor." Said the figure as he took off his hood to reveal a redhead boy no older than 22 years old.

The Malfoy heir and the Weasley heiress had introduced themselves, leaving three figures yet to introduce themselves. "Merry meet, I'm Mateo Grindelwald, and was a Ravenclaw." A figure said as they stepped forward and dropped their hood, to reveal a young man with aristocrat features that could rival those of the Black family. "Merry meet, I'm Haridan Potter, auror and was a Gryffindor." Said one of the two figures as they stepped forward to reveal a young man with messy raven coloured hair. The last figure stepped forward and dropped her hood, as many boys and girls in the hall stared at her, pulled in by her alluring beauty. "Merry meet, I'm Rosaline Peverell, headmistress of Peverell academy for gifted young witches and was a Ravenclaw. I was also an Ombrelune." Said the young headmistress as James Potter looked shook, for she had used the ancestral Potter surname which happened to be Peverell. The girl met her young father's gaze and winked in his direction as she walked towards Mateo.

"Quod olim movebatur, nunc manere jubeo. Tempus pro nobis est" said Rosaline as time outside the hall came to a stop. The hall looked at her in amazement as she said the ancient Latin words, yet she ignored them. Mateo slipped a hand onto the girl's waist as he lead her to the couches and armchairs which had appeared after Rosaline had said the spell. A portal opened as a light cream coloured nursery is seen. A girl no older than 5 years old steps through, holding her little sister in her arms, making the hall awe. The two girls go up to Rosaline and Mateo who are seated on the same couch, the younger girl says "Maman, up!" whilst giving Rosaline puppy eyes. The witch sighs but picks up Idunnia, her youngest daughter and sets her on her lap, whilst Amethystia climbs onto the couch and sits next to her mother, making Mateo pout. "Who are the cute little guests that have just joined us?" Asked McGonagall as Rosaline said "They my daughters, Idunnia Dorea and Amethystia Iolanthe Peverell." "They're adorable." Said Bellatrix as heads in the hall snapped towards her,not believing what she'd just said. "Oh don't give me those looks! I'm speaking the truth, they are adorable." Snapped Bellatrix, making the heads turn away from her.

"Let's start with the movies, shall we?" Asked McGonagall as the hall eagerly nods, Ted Tonks, a muggle-born wizard helps the professor put the first film into the DVD player and the movie begins to play. Amethystia climbs onto Mateo's lap as he wraps one of his arms around her to keep her from falling off, whilst his other hand lay on his wife's waist, pulling her closer to him as the screen turns white, signalling the start of the movie.
