"You'll be fine. I promise." Harry said to his obviously frightened son.
"But, dad... What if the sorting hat does place me in Slytherin?"
"Then, Slytherin will have gained an excellent young wizard."
Alby stared at the ground in disbelief. Harry, seeing his son's fear, knelt down in front of him as to see eye to eye.
"Albus Severus Potter...you were named after two of the greatest wizards I've ever known. One of them was a Slytherin."
Alby looked up and smiled at his father.
"But, if it really matters that much to you, you can chose Gryffindor. The sorting hat takes your choice into account."
Just as Harry said that the whistle on the Hogwarts Express sounded and James, his brother, called to him.
"Hurry up! You're standing right next to the train and you're gonna miss it!"
Alby and James said their last goodbyes to their parents and their younger sister, Lily, as they stepped on the train.
"Don't worry! You'll be fine!" Harry called to Alby as he walked onto the train.
"Hat, boots, jumper?" Hermione said as she went through a mental checklist with their eldest daughter Rose, while Ron said talked to their son Hugo.
"I'm fine mum." Rose said.
"Alright, be safe." Called Hermione as they followed their cousins onto the train.
"Goodbye Harry." Teddy said as he walked over to his godparents.
"Last year. I can't believe it."
"Neither can I."
"Watch them for me, okay?"
"Always."
Harry and Ginny hugged Teddy. He stepped onto the train with Victorie hand in hand.
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny all watched as the train slowly crept out of platform 9 3/4 and into their children's adventure.
