Chapter One: Welcome to Hogwarts, again.

A/N: Before everything starts: this story begins in the sixth book of the saga: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. As always, this won't take the normal story and somethings will be changed. Time in this story may go too fast, because I want to continue the story through The Deathly Hallows (and who knows the 19 years later part). I'm taking basis on the film, and not the book. As you already noticed, yes, there will be something between Alice and Draco (of course), and some parts of film will be included in here, but with some slightly differences, or it wouldn't be a fanfic. Alice is a character that I've created but the rest of the credits go to J. K. Rowling, of course. I hope you like this story as much as I've been liking writing it! Good readings!

                  

"Alice!" The mom snapped. "We're going to be late to the train!" Alice packed up her things and followed her family. Today she and her siblings were going to hers sixth year in Hogwarts. She couldn't stop thinking about the fact that You Know Who is probably back. That thought terrified her. Knowing that everyone including herself would be in danger.

The trip to the train station was long enough for Alice to be even more terrified. The mom helped her to put her things in the trolley and they moved to Platform 9¾. There they were. The Hogwarts express was there waiting for them. They saw Harry and Hermione. Alice noticed that they were not with a good expression, what meant, knowing them for those years, that something was not okay.

"How are you, Hermione?" The mom asked. Hermione looked up.
"Hum, well, I guess." She gave a little smile. The train made a sign and everyone was going on board. Alice and her siblings said goodbye to their parents.
"Be careful there." The dad advised. "You know how the things are now. Anything you need just sent an owl." The dad's expression went softer. "See you kids in Christmas, goodbye!" They waved goodbye and entered the train.

Alice, Hermione, Ron and Harry sat in their usual place. Everything was different now. The students knew something was happening. Something bad. Alice greeted her old friends, as usual, caught up things. Everything was normal until she saw Draco Malfoy. She remembered everything. Last year. In the Slytherin house. A thing she surely wants to forget.
Equally, Draco was thinking the same. But in one thing they differed, he doesn't want to forget.
Alice passed through Draco without looking at him and went to meet her friends.  Hermione was sitting next to Ron, so, Alice sat next to Harry.

"Ron, can you stop eating?" Hermione complained. "You're so different from your twin sister!"
"Hey, I'm here." Alice said. "Just went to say hi to Luna and Neville. Am I the only one who thinks they look pretty cute together?" Hermione smiled.
"I actually never thought that. But they actually are." Harry and Ron rolled their eyes and Alice and Hermione laughed.
"How's Ginny, by the way?" Harry asked. "She hasn't speak to me yet."
"Oh, she's fine." Ron answered, biting the cake mom made to him. "She's always fine." Alice looked at the window at the door and Draco passed by. They looked at each other a few seconds before Ron calls her. "Alice, what are you looking at?" Alice looked at the window again, but no one was there.
"To nothing." She answered.

Quickly the train arrived at Hogwarts. Every student went outside and their things were there. Alice got her things and went to the Gryffindor house. Harry was not with them, he stayed in the train. She didn't knew why, but didn't asked. She settled her things in the room she shared with Hermione, her best friend. Although through all this years, Hermione, Ron and Harry were "The Golden Trio" of Hogwarts, she was the closest friend Hermione had.

"How do you think this year's going to be?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know. Everything's changed, of course. Everybody knows that Voldemort is coming neither way to kill Harry." Alice answered. "But I'm terrified."
"I agree. People say that Dumbledore is getting old and maybe not doing the best decisions for the school." Hermione commented.
"I don't think so. Dumbledore is a great wizard and for these years he made everything to protect us." She ended the conversation.
