The Next Golden Trio: A Next Gen Tale...

{Albus}

'Mum! Dad! C'mon!' I yell up the stairs, 'You're going to make us late!'

'Yeah, c'mon Al's actually right about something for once, we are GOING TO MISS THE TRAIN!' James bellows up the stairs.

Dad comes running down the stairs, 'We are trying to hurry up, but your sister refuses to get dressed, because she says it's not fair that she's not allowed to go.'

'Ugh! Not this again!' James moans, flopping down on the couch.

Dad rolls his eyes and runs back upstairs.

I fall back on the couch and call our big, black dog, Padfoot, over.

He places his head on my knee, and looks up at me with those big, round, chocolate brown eyes that clearly say, 'Why are you leaving me?'

'I'm sorry boy, but I'm going to Hogwarts!'

Even as I say it's shiver of excitement runs up my spine.

'HURRY UP!' James yells, rolling his eyes.

Suddenly Dad comes running down the stairs, quickly followed by Ginny whose carrying Lily on her hip.

'Lets go, let's go, let's go!' Dad says grabbing my trunk, and pulling it out to the car.

I grab my ferret's, Stormy's, cage and follow James into the car.

Mum hops into the front seat, and Lily slides in next to me as Dad starts the engine.

This is happening, I think, I am going to Hogwarts for the very first time.

~••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••~

'But Dad,' I whisper, as students pile onto the Hogwarts Express, 'what if I am in Slytherin?'

'Albus Severus Potter,' Dad says, his green eyes looking straight into my identical green eyes, 'you were named after 2 headmasters of Hogwarts, one of them was a Slytherin, and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew.'

I bite my lip, and my eyes dart away from my fathers, 'but what if I am?'

'If you really don't want to be in Slytherin, the sorting hat will let you choose Gryffindor over Slytherin if you really want.' Dad says, giving me a small smile.

'Really?!?' I say, my eyes widening and meeting Dad's again.

'It did for me.'

My eyes widen again, 'Really?'

'Yep.'

'Quickly Al! Or you'll miss the train.' Mum says.

I say my goodbyes, and my I love you's, then I hop onto the Hogwarts Express next to Rose.

We stick our heads out a window on a door and wave at our parents, siblings and cousins.

Then we turn the corner and they disappear from sight, this is it. We're of to Hogwarts.
