Over the next few weeks Minnie (the family nickname for the new baby) strived. It wasn't until August 31 that trouble came up. It was late one night when Lily woke up hearing a commotion downstairs. She groggily got out of bed and made her way down the stairs.
"Mum what's going on?" She mumbled.
"It's your sister. She's having seizures." Mr. Potter answered for his wife.
By this time James had arrived downstairs, "What's going on Dad?"
"We are taking your little sister to St. Mungo's." Mr. Potter grabbed Mrs. Potter's arm and the disaperated.
"They took the wrong sister." James teased, "You are the one with the screw loose."
Lily shoved James' shoulder and took off up the stairs she ran. All the way back to bed. She pulled her comforter up to her chin and fell asleep. When she woke up she clambered out of bed and dressed quickly in a uniform skirt but a sky blue top. Making her hair just under her shoulders and an auburn color. She then walked down stairs and found her mother feeding Minnie a bottle.
"Mum! Is she ok?" Lily exclaimed.
"Yes Silly Lily." Mrs. Potter kissed the top of her eldest daughter's head, "Now get ready to go to the platform."
"I'm ready Mum." Lily smiled, her mouth full of toast.
Suddenly James and Albus burst through the doors.
"Let's get going!" Albus yelled.
"I want to see My friends." James grinned.
"When everyone is ready we can leave." Mr Potter walked through the door carrying a diaper bag.
"I'm ready Dad." Lily said.
"Me too!" Albus pulled his trunk into the room.
"Me three!" James yanked his through the door.
"Lil go get your trunk and we will get going." Mr. Potter said pulling a Portkey from his pocket. It was a baby bottle.
Lily ran from the room and into hers.
"Winky!" She said. With a crack her little elf was there.
"I am coming to Hogwarts today."
"I know! We is already preparing the feast for tonight!" Windy said excitedly.
"I can't wait to see you there! I've missed you." Lily confessed.
"Winky is missing her mistress too." The little elf gave the small girl a hug and she left.
Lily grabbed her trunk and made her way back downstairs.
"We were wondering if you had fallen off of the edge of the earth." James teased.
"Shut up." Albus rolled his eyes.
"Grab hold." Mrs Potter said. She had Minnie's hand on the bottle as well as her own. Once everyone was touching she counted, "One, two, three!"
The spun around and around and around until they finally landed on the platform.
Lily struggled to her feet and went to load her trunk. While she effortlessly pushed the heavy trunk onto the train she heard a voice say, "Look Dad. It's the Potter girl. Another Gryffindor. Another stuck up perfect child."
"Scorpius, you have learned so well. We Malfoys do not tolerate their kind."
Lily turned and snapped, "You know 'the Potter girl' can hear you! And for your information I am proud to be a future Gryffindor and the eldest Potter daughter." With that she spun on her heal and march off.

"Potter, Lily." Neville Longbottom called out to the quivering First years.
Lily strode up and set the hat upon her head and for a moment nothing happened.
'Ah finally, You I have been waiting for.'
'Please put me where I belong.' Lily thought fiercely.
'I know where to put you. I can tell you don't want to be overshadowed by your brothers. You also don't want to be over shadowed by your cousins either. You want to be in the spot light for once. Better be...' The last word was shouted,
