The last trace of steam evaporated in the autumn air. The train rounded a corner.
Harry's hand was raised in farewell. "He'll be alright," murmured Ginny. As Harry
looked at her, he lowered his hand absendmindedly and touched the lightning scar
on his forehead. "I know he will." The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years.
All was well.
[/size][/color]In the year 2016, the famous Harry Potter sent his two eldest sons to Hogwarts, with the thought that everything would now be fine. With the Dark Lord vanquished, everyone became confident again, and believed that they would always be safe with Harry Potter around. After all, he was a man who even escaped death when he actually was killed. What couldn't the man do? Everything went back to normal, and although some families seemed guilty of having been on the dark side, it wasn't easily proven. Harry Potter took up the job as auror, along with his best friend Ron Weasley, to try to get the rest of the criminals into Azkaban. But so many came up with the lies of having been under the imperius curse, or some said their families had been locked away and that becoming a death eater was their only option. The trouble was people couldn't tell the truth from the lies, no one had the skill of legilimens. And therefore, several of the prestigious rich families who had assisted in all the murders went free. With the dark lord gone however, the wizarding world believed there was no other who could take up that pedestal and try what Tom Riddle failed to do. However, during the nineteen years since Harry Potter triumphed, the past death eaters started gathering in secret again. The Malfoys, the Lestranges, the Flints, The Goyles, and a lot more of the large families came together and tried to figure out a new plan. What they really needed was a leader, someone who seemed evil enough, and powerful enough.
While they finally selected a man who seemed intelligent enough to get the job done right, the order had sort of slacked off a bit. The worst was over, and so various members stopped attending meetings, until it wound up being only the trio themselves. Only they really suspected that the death eaters weren't through. Since the elders had decided that they'd had their fair share of battles, it was up to the younger adults to rebuild the order, before it was too late. They decided that since all the other middle aged people were too busy having a family and working, they would have to start recruiting Hogwarts students. After all, how hard was it to train teenagers in combat? Harry had done it before, what was the difference? Well maybe the fact that three of the students were his own children, or the multiple amounts of Weasley children that seemed to be spreading all the time. And now that the Order of the Pheonix has fallen apart, it's become far more simple for death eaters to infiltrate Hogwarts with their own sinister plots. For Hogwarts students however, life goes on. James, Albus, and Lily all find their talents and discover more of the wizarding world. School is school, even if it is a wizarding one.
The year is now 2021. While there are now a few more order members, it's a fickle few, and there have been tell-tale signs that things are not as calm as they appear. For example, three brothers of the last name Belby, for years mocked for being as close as they were suddenly openly shouting death threats at each other, and the middle kid deciding to ditch their band of brothers. And speaking of surprises, how about seeing the Malfoy twins suddenly whispering into each other's ears when before you used to hear their shouting all across the school. Is this just coincidence, or is something bigger going on? And there are quite some secrets yet to be revealed. Like the fact that the middle Belby brother was nearly sorted into slytherin? Or that one of the Malfoy twins was almost put into hufflepuff? Is the hat losing it's touch, or does it seem like more and more complex teenagers come into Hogwarts these days? Can the hat have made mistakes with some of these students? Lately very strange things have been happening in Hogwarts school. Far more than the normal for the wizarding school. Slytherin students have been getting bolder. Something's gone out of hand. Somehow they found a way to learn darker tactics.
And not only that, but they seem to be getting away with it. Why? Because the students they've bullied they've definitely left permanent marks on. More and more students came into the hospital wing with unusual cuts on their arms, legs, sometimes even their faces. When questioned, all of them refused to say a word. What was this new evil? Who would train teenagers to attack fellow students? How could all of this go beyond Harry Potter's original heroic efforts? Well.... why don't we just find out?
