Lyra joins Hogwarts with her strange power weighing heavily on her shoulders, and with whispers of her Father's crimes. But Lyra must be careful. Where there are friends at Hogwarts, there are enemies. Not to mention that she isn't the only child with incredible abilities... This is going to be one hell of a ride. {Years 1-3} [Top Ranking: #60 in hp and #196 in #SiriusBlack]

{Sequel to Sky Full of Stars} If Lyra Black thought things were complicated before... Well now, everything has changed. She found out her Father was innocent, but now he's on the run, as the one girl who could free him is working for Voldemort. Katherine Moran discovered everything she knew about her family was a lie. Cassie Malfoy struggles between choosing her new friends in Slytherin, or the girl she loves. Their fourth and fifth years at Hogwarts School will push these friends to breaking point: physically, emotionally and mentally. There will be a Tri-Wizard Tournament with a twist nobody suspects, and a Ministry teacher dressed all in pink with a poisonous smile. But they'll get through this.... Right? {Years 4-5}

❝ 𝓗𝓸𝓵𝓭 𝓶𝔂 𝓱𝓪𝓷𝓭, 𝓪𝓷𝓭 𝓷𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓻 𝓵𝓮𝓽 𝓶𝓮 𝓰𝓸. ❞ Grace always felt as if her heart was missing something, like a puzzle piece that got lost. No matter how hard she tried to fill the space with her uncle, or her aunt's family, she knew that nothing could replace that puzzle piece. That puzzle piece: was her father. Growing up she only knew that he left her and her mother one night when she was a year old, and never returned. When The Daily Prophet headlines that Sirius Black had escaped Azkaban the summer before her third year at Hogwarts, Grace started questioning everything. Being a thirteen-year-old girl was already hard enough, but to add looming questions, reliving traumatic memories, and realizing she might have feelings for one of her best friends, all while a murderer was on the loose, was becoming too overwhelming. However, once she learns and accepts the truth about her family, she holds onto it, never letting go. Starts in PoA, and ends post DH. THIS IS PART 2 AND CANNOT BE READ ON IT'S OWN.

This is a sequel! To avoid spoilers to Star of Gryffindor, please read that before reading this! Astra Lewis and Albus and James Potter are back at Hogwarts, this time for a (hopefully) much less dangerous year. But after Wren Predatels's shocking betrayal, Astra is having a hard time. Albus and James seemed to have moved on all right, but for Astra, it's different. It's a very hard thing to find out your first and closest friend was never really there for you. Not to mention all the changes going on. With a new Ministry-appointed headmaster, things are being run a bit differently. There's a clingy, annoying first year who instantly latches onto Astra, but gets sorted into the wrong House. And, Astra's nightmares are getting worse, driving her roommates insane. Not to mention the strange new girl, a transfer from Beauxbatons, who not only seems mysterious, but is apparently interested in the Dark Arts. All of this pales in comparison to the attempts to kidnap James. Astra and her friends are wary of everything now, but somehow, someone is slipping past their defenses...

Everything started 14th July. As a new year begins for Astra and her friends, they're all worried about the future. After a rough year, with shaky trust and suspicions running wild, they're not sure they can handle whatever might be next. N.E.W.T. level classes and schoolyard bullies pale in comparison to a tyrannical government and a growing network of terrorists that no one seems large enough to stop. On top of that, Wren's parents haven't contacted her once about anything, Zaria Hempsey-related or no. Bigger problems soon arise, though. When nightmares become realities, for more than one member of the group, they're each left with little to stand on. The threat of betrayal by others is constant, but when your own mind can betray you, what's left? Started: 5/26/2018 Ended: 8/29/2020

Book 3 of the Star of Gryffindor Series! Your favorite trouble-makers are back for their third year at Hogwarts! Astra Lewis is hoping for a peaceful year - after all, you'd think she deserves one by now. However, life never seems to go as planned, as Astra will soon find out. Even with a newfound ally in Colette St. Pierre, this year might be tough. There's a new first year obsessed with her, though this seems to be for different reasons than Adalyn Lostry. Her dreams are getting more vivid. And Mr. Potter discovers something that might just uncover who her father is. This is a year of questions answered, which only lead to more raised. It's the year where Astra crosses the threshold from child to teenager, and the year when she realizes things aren't always as black and white as they appear. Things start to heat up when Astra stumbles on the Headboy near death in one of the corridors. It's the start of the most dangerous year she's faced yet. What did this to him? Will it come back? Is anyone safe here, in what is renowned to be the safest place in the wizarding world? Started: 1/5/16 Ended: 5/28/16

Book 4 in the Star of Gryffindor Series! After Wren Predatel was found alone in Hogsmeade after a large-scale attempted break in at Hogwarts, no one knew exactly what to do with her. A trial is whipped up to decide her fate, but the two key witnesses aren't even allowed to attend. Astra Lestrange is given a firm "No" to all her begging to go. Her aunt thinks it's the last thing she needs, and the Potters give the same verdict regarding James. After all, they've been through enough already; the last thing they need is to watch an old (traitorous?) friend get sentenced to Azkaban. There may be bigger things to worry about this year than Wren, though. It is Hogwarts' turn to host an old tradition, and everyone is excited. The only problem? Last time this happened at Hogwarts, someone died. And there's no guarantee it won't happen again. Join Astra in her most thrilling year yet, with new friends and enemies arising, and adventures more dangerous than any she's faced yet. Started: 6/8/16 Ended: 1/28/17

The Daily Prophet Issue No. 101,770 3 July 2021 Lestrange: Model or Menace? After recent events at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, it should not surprise readers to find Miss Astra Lestrange making the news once more. Where newsworthy trouble at Hogwarts brews, the little "heroine" never seems to be far. This alone has caused many at this paper to scratch their heads, but now there's call for more than that. As hype over the attack had died down, Lestrange has come up with more and more outlandish tales of what she claims happened to her that night, including madmen that no one has heard of and a much more subversive agenda behind the known terrorists', the Predatels, cause than evidence points to (an agenda that features her as a prominent part, it should be noted). We at the Prophet have found this a disturbing development, leaving many to wonder if there's more to Astra Lestrange than her do-gooder facade... ~~~~ Made out to be a liar and danger by the media, Astra Lestrange's credibility has dropped to exactly zero in the eyes of the public. She's left helpless, fighting a seemingly impossible battle against the Ministry of Magic. Harry Potter is on her side, of course, but that has left him on shaky ground with the Ministry. He's had to resort to outside means to stop Caymus Stillens, but even that seems to be a losing battle. Even without her fall from grace, Astra would have had a tough year in store. On top of her OWLs, a new rival in Eris Prince, and a controversial new member on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, Astra escaped from Stillens last year. And no one escapes from Caymus Stillens with their life. At least, not for long. As the year progresses and her fight with the Ministry is overshadowed by a fight for her life, Astra begins to suspect that all is not well inside Hogwarts. Could it be that she's been betrayed again? Started: 2/25/17 Ended: 4/21/18

After facing disastrous consequences from her decision to rescue the children from Stillens' manor with only her friends, Astra Lestrange decides she's done letting people die for her. She and James Potter disappear, hoping to find Wren Predatel and keep the rest of their friends safe. They soon come to realize that avoiding danger, to themselves or others, may be harder than they thought. As Astra and James traverse the countryside, Wren is dealing with her own personal hell. Her uncle does not like being crossed, and she knows it's only a matter of time until she breaks. She's determined to not let that happen. Meanwhile, Albus Potter and Colette St. Pierre are left to pick up the pieces at a Hogwarts missing far too many of their friends, and harboring far too many of their enemies. With new dangers and complications arising left and right, the hope of defeating Stillens seems to grow more dim with each passing day. Will the help of unexpected friends be enough to unite a scattered resistance and defeat the greatest evil the wizarding world has seen in decades? Started: 9/30/2020 Ended: 6/18/2024
