"Long time, Emily," greeted James with a slight smile.
Emily looked up, her eyes brightened, but instantly went back to the listless expression, " Hi..." said the girl and returned with her gaze to her plate of food.
"What happened this last time? You never sent a letter anymore," asked James.
"The owl is from Gwen and she was at Hogwarts at the time," replied Emily.
"You don't have an owl? I doubt your family has money to buy one," asked James with a strange expressio...

They found themselves in the Gryffindor common room. A round, cozy room, filled with comfortable armchairs, a thick brown carpet in front of a blazing fire, and even more portraits adorning the walls.
The female prefect led the girls through one door into their dormitories, and the male prefect led the boys through another door. At the top of a spiral staircase (it was evident that they were in one of the towers). They finally found their beds.
There were five adjoining beds with ...

"Lovegood, Xenophilius!"
"RAVENCLAW!" shouted the hat.
"Lupin, Remus!" called the teacher.
A hunched boy started to walk to the stool and sat down nervously. Within seconds, the hat spoke: GRYFFINDOR!
Remus took the hat off his head as soon as the hat shouted, not waiting for McGonagall to take it off. He hurried to the Gryffindor table, barely noticing the cheers and applause as he passed.
Macdonald, Mary, also went to Gryffindor, but Mulciber, Luke, happened to...

The door opened immediately. A tall, black-haired witch in emerald robes waited there. She had a very stern face that frightened many of the first-year students.
"First years, Professor McGonagall," Hagrid said.
"Thank you very much, Hagrid. I'll take care of them," said the witch.
She opened the door wide. The entrance hall was so big they could have fit a whole house in it. They all followed Professor McGonagall across the stone floor marked with flags.
The professor...

"Yeah, that boy asked for it first." nodded James with a smile. He sat down on the empty seat stretching his body as much as possible. Sirius copied him.
"If we stay in Slytherin we'll just have to put up with it," Sirius commented with a grimace.
"Don't say it! You could manifest it. I met a second-year boy who's in Gryffindor. He told me that the Sorting Hat can follow your wishes. So if you don't want to go to Slytherin, the hat will take it into consideration." said James.

The tense atmosphere dissipated. Everyone turned and looked at the woman who had a friendly smile on her face. James had already put the wand away. Anastasia quickly stopped pointing it at James.
"Let's get out of here! What will you do, Gwen?" asked Anastasia looking at her best friend.
Gwen looked at James. Then back at her best friend's face, after a few seconds, she replied sighing, "See you James... I hope you stay in Slytherin, though I don't think so." she said, mumbling th...

They finished breakfast, and his father loaded his heavy trunk into the car. His father was a great fan of muggle objects especially mechanics, hence, cars. Fleamont bought a Peugeot 504 and after he retired tried to learn Muggle mechanics. It was one of his hobbies.
The Peugeot was white, had four doors, and was very well maintained. James climbed into the back seat and put the cage next to him where Shadow was.

Penny's parents were very grateful that James saved their two daughters. It was an embarrassing moment for James. As they kept repeating 'Thank you for saving our babies!'.
Their youngest daughter Sophie was rested, as she was almost killed by a horrible troll and was still scared and very tired mentally and physically. Penny also thanked him. She noticed James' embarrassment, so she wasn't too pushy like her parents.
After thanking them for a long time, they said goodbye. Penny t...

Euphemia looked at James until he turned and started to head into the woods. Amos followed him. Seeing this, Euphemia sighed in relief and followed her husband and the others to the source of the trouble.
James and Amos were running shoulder to shoulder. The huge crowd was fleeing in the same direction as them, while some people ran in the opposite direction. James guessed they were Ministry wizards attempting to reach the hooded figures, but they seemed to be encountering difficulties....

For some reason, James felt she was talking to him as her seat was next to him. He turned his head, and sure enough, the girl was looking at him.

"Although some of your family doesn't seem so happy" he added in a lower tone so the blonde woman wouldn't hear him.

As the days passed, James practiced with his two new acquisitions: the wand and the Nimbus 1001. He was able to practice magic with the wand, since, according to his father, he will be placed with the tracing charm (which allows the Ministry to know the magic cast by wizards and witches under 17 years old) when he enters the Hogwarts Express. So, he can continue practicing magic in the training room without being punished.
On August 1, the long-awaited Quidditch World Cup began, only a ...

James woke up early, today would be the day he would go shopping for everything he needed to start his first year at Hogwarts. To buy everything he needed he had to go to Diagon Alley.
Diagon Alley is a magical cobblestone alley and shopping area located in London, England. Here Hogwarts students can shop for everything they need for their school year.
What excited James the most about this, was that he would be buying his wand, not one used by someone else, ...

Two years had passed since his farewell to Emily and Gwen. James was now 11 years old and it was only a matter of time before he would start Hogwarts. According to his parents' experience, he would receive his letter in mid-July and start his first year on September 1.
James was very excited about this, he had heard many stories of Hogwarts told by his parents, how it was one of the happiest and most fun times of their lives (his mother said the happiest time was whe...

His father, besides being a potion maker, was a skilled duelist. In his years as a student at Hogwarts he was teased for his strange name, so he got into duels all the time, achieving great skill.
So having his father as his personal instructor was very good news, as James wanted to be skilled in martial magic because in the future he must face Voldemort and wants to focus on defensive and offensive magic.
"Let's start with the basics, a levitation charm" said Fleamont.

James was now 8 years old. He turned about three days ago. Today would be the day he would finally get his first wand.
Even though it was a used wand, he was very excited. Now he was waiting for his grandfather and father to arrive by the fireplace with the wand. His mother was cooking some sandwiches to eat in the afternoon.
'What's taking them so long?' thought James feeling anxious and not taking his eyes off the fireplace.
James at this time got his parents to give him m...

"Please come in" said the elf named Slinky motioning for James and the other two children to access the room.
In this new room was the birthday girl, Gwen, and all the children. James could recognize some of them as Goyle and Crabbe, but there were others he had never seen with Gwen's gang.
James noticed that in one corner stood Emily alone as usual, 'It must be because she's from another generation...or so I think' thought James.

3 months had passed since James started reading the 3 books. This time was more than enough for James to learn the 3 books perfectly, he even read them several times.
Although he couldn't do the practical part, his parents could. So he asked them for a demonstration of the charms, to analyze the movements of the wands, among other things.
Also in the part about potions, he watched on the front page how his father prepared the potions since he had all the necessary equipment. Thank...

His mother didn't mind him staying in the house all day reading books and playing with a snitch he got for one of his birthdays.
The next day he resumed his mission. Thinking about it, he should have left yesterday, because Gwen would be in bed recovering from the bone-breathing potion.

James had already decided which wall to use for climbing. This wall is rough enough that it can be climbed, even so, it will be a big challenge, but it is doable.
When he got close to the wall, he touched it with one of his hands, 'I must do it fast' thought James as he started climbing, while he had Gwen on his back.
Emily looked at this with fear, it was several meters, and climbing with a weight on your back was very difficult, plus the darkness did not help.

James spent the days waiting for his 6th birthday. Despite not having a wand, he will get two very interesting books to study.
On the one hand, the "Statutory Book of Spells" is a collection of books written by Miranda Goshawk. The series includes seven books, his father will give him the first of the 7. Generally, this book is used for first-year students at Hogwarts.
'Although I don't think it will take him that long to learn it completely...' thought James a little worried.

'I did the opposite of what mother told me...' thought James who now had 4 enemies, although he didn't mind them, as they were just spoiled children.
He began to think about what that girl named Gwen had said. Many pureblood families consider themselves superior to those wizards and witches born of muggles and half-bloods.
