   (my story) When Harry Meets Alex

~Rebelde~ When Harry Meets Alex It was late in the afternoon. Lily and James were on their way to Hogwarts School of WitchCraft and Wizardry. Lily's water had broke and she wanted her baby boy to be born at her old school. "Is Sirius going to meet us there?" asked Lily. "He's on his way now, Dumbldore is already there, along with all the other members of the order." said James. "Alright, and James." "Yes honey." "HURRY!" said Lily. "Right, sorry!" said James, making his flying car go faster. They sped off into the sky shortly arriving at Hogwarts. James ran out of the car and to the opposit side to help Lily out. "James, we have everything ready in the Great Hall. Everyone's waiting." said one of James's friends. "Thank you Sirius." said James. "It's no trouble at all. And how are you holding up Lily?" asked Sirius "Oh, i'm great, doing fine!" said Lily. "Same old Lily, not even labor could change that sence of humor." said Sirius opening two big oak doors. Sirius and James helped Lily into the Great Hall and onto a cozy spot in the middle of the floor. They laid her down and a mount of blankets, towels, and pillow. A cloud cover started heading their way. Soon the entire sky was a dark shade of gray. "Great, and I thought that my baby would be born on a bright and welcoming day!" said Lily, making herself comfortable. "Well, at least he's going to have all of the people that love him right here with him." said Sirius. "Sirius, I know that we haven't had much time to talk about it, but I would really love it, if you would be our child's godfather." said Lily. Sirius looked star stricken. "I... well..... of.... It would be an honor." said Sirius, with tears in his eyes. Everyone surrounding Lily, James, and Sirius had bright smiles on their faces. Everyone sat down in a circle around Lily and James. James was sitting right next to Lily holding her hand. "You're doing great honey. You're doing great." said James rubbing her arm. "I'd be doing alot better if you would be quiet." said Lily gasping for air in between every few words. "Sorry" said James looking down. "Oh, the contractions are getting worse!" said Lily, as sweat was streaming down her face. "That means it's almost time!" said a voice from the circle. "Frank! What are you doing here? You should be at home with Alice and the baby." said Lily looking surprised. "Yeah, I was going to, but Alice said that her and Neville would be fine, and she wanted me to come and stay with you, unitl u had the baby, she also said to take a lot of pictures." said Frank smiling. "Aw, that's sweet of her!" said Lily. "But enough about us, this is your day Lily,you just worry about you and that baby." said Frank smiling. "Ok, I think your ready honey." said James as Lily squeez his hand so hard that he lost feeling in it. "Yeah I think so to." said Lily. Lily slowly started pushing. Thunder roared in the sky up above, and bright lightning flashed, and rain, slowly but surly, began to fall. The lights had suddenly gone out. "It's alright Lily, everything is going to be fine." said a tall man, with hair all the way down to his waist, a beard almost just as long, and half moon spectacals that slid halfway down his long croocked nose. "Albus, what's going on." asked Lily, her voice shaking. "The power is out, it's alright, it's just the lightning storm. Everything's going to be____" "AHHHHHH!, He's coming! AHHHH!" yelled Lily. "Push honey, PUSH!" Lily pushed, and pushed, and pushed with all her might. In the loudness of the dark there was a beautiful baby boy born. Thunder over lapped the crying, but everyone knew that it was over. Or was it? "James! Something isn't right. James, my contractions are coming back!" said Lily with barley any breath left in her. "What? What are you talking about Lily?" said Albus. "I"m saying, Harry wasn't the only baby in me." said Lily as she started pushing. Even in the darkness everyone could see the troubled look on Dumbledore's face. Once again Lily pushed, using all the power she had left. Beautiful white and blue lights erupted from nowhere and a beautiful baby girl was born. "Oh my goodness!" said James as tears rolled down his cheaks. "Twins! Lily we have twins!" said James as he and and Sirius were cleaning the babies. "What are you going to name the girl?" asked Albus, still with the troubled look. "Alexis Lily Potter!" said James looking at Lily. "And Harry James Potter!" said Lily looking at James. Sirius put Alexis in James's arms, and Harry in Lily's arms. "They're beautiful!" said Sirius. The smiles on everyones faces were ever lasting in the minds of Alexis and Harry Potter. "Alex wake up! What good are you to me if you sleep in every day. This place needs cleaning!" said Mary, the woman that took me in when I was a baby. "Mary! It's six o'clock in the morning. If the sun isn't up, why should I be?" I asked, putting the pillow over my head. "Early bird get's the worm!" said Mary smiling. "Eww! I'm not bird Mary, and I so don't eat worms!" I said laughing. Mary smiled and taped my nose. Mary has always been there for me, she's the only family that I've ever really had, and after the dream I had tonight I think that might be a lie. "What's on your mind hunny?" asked Mary, sitting down at the edge of my bed. "Mary, you've been like a mom to me since I was a little girl. You told me that my mom and dad died when I was one. What about my brother?" I asked. A look of horror crossed Mary's face. "How did you know? I mean, who told you?" asked Mary in a strange whisper. "What do you mean. Nobody told me. I... I had a dream about the day I was born, and I wasn't the only one who was. A boy was born before me.... my brother was born before me. I know that it's just a dream but some how I just know that its real. I can feel it!" I said. "Alex, listen to me hunny! You better not go poking aroud trying to find your family. You'll end up with all sorts of trouble. It's best that you just stay here and leave it alone!" said Mary, standing up and walking toward the door. "Mary I wasn't planing on going anywhere." I said, very confused at what she had told me. Mary turned around and smile. "I know sugar, but promise me you'll stay out of it!" said Mary, tears filling up in her eyes. "I promise." I said. Mary tapped my nose again and then left the room. "You made mom cry!" said Jake, my brother. "Don't you knock!" "NO!" "Well it's about time you learn to. And I didn't mean to make mom cry, I only asked her about my brother." I said as I was making my bed. "Why would you want to ask about me, and why would that make mom cry?" asked Jake, with a confused look on his face. "Not you dork! I have a real brother, one who is related to me by blood. I dreamed about him. I know that it was just a dream, but I also know that it's real." I said. "How? How do you know it's real?" asked Jake, now looking more hurt than confused. "Well, do you remember when I had that dream about you falling from the tree, and breaking your neck?" "Yeah." "Well it felt just like that, only it wasn't a dream about what was going to happen, it was a dream about what did happen, when I... me and my brother were born." I said, doing the finishing touches on my bed. "I've got a bad feeling about this." said Jake. "Well I don't. Now, if you don't mind, I would like to finish my chores early today. Mom promised me that I could go visit Piper, Pheobe and Prue. I miss them!" I said, ignoring the comment that Jake was about to make by leaving the room. I scrubed the floors, cleaned the bathrooms, made the rest of the beds, served breakfast, cleaned up in the kitchen, and set the meat out to defrost for lunch. "Mary can I go see Piper now?" I asked as I walked into the living room that she was currently cleaning. "Yeah, but be sure that your home for dinner." she said with out looking at me. "Ok, I love you mom!" I said. "Me 2." she said again without looking at me. I walked down five blocks and down six houses. I walked up the walk way and up the stair to the front door. I rang the door bell and was instantly greeted by Piper. "I'm so glad you came. I've missed you so much!" said Piper. "I've missed you too. I've been dieing to see you again." I said, as Piper gave me a hug. "Guess what! I think I had another premintion last night! Only it wasn't about the future. It was about the day I was born and I wasn't the only one!" I said. Piper looked at me in amazment. "Woah! Phoebe didn't get a preminiton from the past until she had her powers for a good year!" said Piper. "Yeah, it was so great though!" I said. "Well come on into the kitchen, you can tell me all about this preminition while I cook you something to eat." said Piper. She lead the way to the kitchen and once there, I went straight to the table, sat down, and told her all about my dream. "So your saying, that you think you have a twin brother?" asked Piper, as the buzzer rang, letting her know that her cookies were done. "No! I'm saying that I know that I have a twin brother, I just don't know if he's even still alive!" I said. The phone started ringing. "Eat a cookie!" commanded Piper. I smiled and happily grabed four while she went to answer the phone. Piper came running into the room before I even took the frist bite. "Alex! It's your mom! She's dead!" I dropped the cookies and ran outside. I started running down the street when I lost my breath and fell to the floor crying. Within a few seconds Piper was next to me, holding me in her arms and crying with me. I pushed myself away from Piper and up the five blocks to my house. I felt my heart stop as I saw the fire fighters putting out the fire that tore my house to the ground. On the street I saw three long black bags, surrounded by cops. "NOOOOO!" I screamed. The cops and the fire fighters turned to look at me as Piper came up behind me trying to keep me as far away as I could. "Mary! Jake! Brian!" I screamed. I pulled out of Pipers grip and ran to the three black bag on the floor. "Why! Why did it have to be them?" I said in between sobs. "Alex Potter?" said one of the cops. I looked up and noticed that it was one of Pipers cop friends Darrel. "Alex, we don't know how it happened. But you mom and two brothers didn't die in that fire." said Darrel. "What do you mean? How did they die then?" I asked sitting up, but still crying. "They were murdured, and then the house was set on fire. Luckly a neighbore was able to get them out before the whole house set fire. I'm really sorry Alex. But I promise, I will do everything in my power to find who did this to you. But in the mean time you have to live with Piper. The police station will gather up some money so that you can go get you new clothes and then I guess if Piper wants, she can adopt you." said Darrel. "I'd love too. C'mon Alex, we need to go home." said Piper, who surprisingly also had tears in her eyes. I only nodded and began walking. I didn't trust myself enough to talk.We walked into the house, I went to the living room and sat down without a word. Piper went into the kitchen to use the phone. I got up and stood right out side of the kitchen to listen in on who Piper was calling. "Pheobe! Listen, Alex is over here, we just found out that her mother and two brothers were murdured! I don't want her going into some strangers house, and living with them. She's going to live here, but i'm scared for her. What if it was something magical. Her mom didn't know about her powers, and she just had a preminition. I don't know what to think, but I do know that I need you and Paige here to help me. Alex needs comfort right now, and we all need to be there for her. Get Paige and come home as soon as you can." said Piper. She hung up the phone, put it on the counter, and began to take out ingredants to make some food. "You don't need to do all this for me Piper. I can live out on my own!" I said, not looking at her. "Alex, you're not going to live alone, and I don't care if you don't need me, i'm here and i'm staying, and so are you!" said Piper. Tears started rolling down my cheeks and Piper ran to me and hugged me. "Why them? Why did Mary, Jake, and Brian have to die?" I said between sobs. "I don't know honey. I don't know." said Piper. I could tell that she was crying so I hugged her back. It must have been a while that Piper and I stayed hugging because the next thing I knew Phoebe and Paige came running into the house and calling my name. "I'm in here." I said wiping away the almost dried tears on my face. "Oh honey! I'm so sorry. I'm so, so, so, sorry!" said Paige running up to me and giving me a hug while Piper herself was wiping away her tears. Once again tears had begun to fill my eyes, and I noticed that mine weren't the only ones. Phoebe, Paige, and Piper were all crying. "You guys are all that I have left! I need to get away from you before I lose you too." I said, pulling myself away from Paige. "Alex? Why? No! You have to stay here. You have nowhere else to go." said Phoebe. "Then I'll sleep on the street! I don't know what i'm going to do, but I can't stay here! You're in danger the longer I stay!" I said. I got up and headed for the livingroom to get my things. "Alex you can't leave! We need to take care fo you. We need to keep you safe!" said Phoebe, holding me back. "I can't! I told you the longer I stay the more you're in danger." As I spoke these words, three demons showed up in the livingroom. "There she is." said one of the demons. "Get her!" said the other. All three demons came toward me with energy balls in their hands. "Alex!" yelled Piper. I raised my hands in front of my face to protect myself from the energy balls, then all three demons blew up. "Piper, did you do that?" I asked turning around. "No, they caught me by surprise, I didn't have time to react." said Piper. "Then, if you didn't, then who did?" Iasked. Nobody answered, but all looked at me. "Wait? You think I did it. But I don't have that power." I said. Piper smiled. "Now you do. I told you that eventually you would get all the poweres of the Charmed Ones. Looks like you can get preminitions, move objects with you mind, and now you can blow up things. Tell me, have you ever tried to levitate?" asked Piper. I looked at her with a confused look on my face. "Just close your eyes, and picture yourself flying." said Piper. I rolled my eyes, but closed then none the less. I tried picture myself flying, then I opened my eyes. "See, I told you that I couldn't fly!" I said. "Alex, look down!" said Paige. I looked down and sure enough I was hovering above the ground by a few inches. "Oh my goodness." I said, falling to the ground. I fell really hard on my butt, making Piper, Phoebe, and Paige laugh. "Ha, ha, very funny! Now help me up. I can't feel my butt!" I said smiling for the first time since I found out that my family died. "Ok." said Piper, still laughing. "Well, it looks like I am progressing in my power. Which is one more reason for me to get away from you." I said starting to turn around. Phoebe caught my arm before I had the chance to grab my stuff and orb out. "Alexis Lily Potter! We have just as much power as you do, and you're not putting us in danger, besides, we're in danger with or without your help. You're staying here, and that's final!" said Piper, in her mother voice. "FINE!" I yelled storming out of the livingroom and heading upstairs to the room that I sleep in when I stay here. I stayed up in my room for the rest of the night. I fell asleep thinking and crying about my family. I woke up that morning to find a tray next to my bed with a glass of orange juice and a cheese omlet, along with a note. " 'Alex, I had to go shopping, Phoebe and Paige are at work. I'll be home soon, you can stay looked up in you room, but when I get back, we're going to talk about everything that happened yesterday weather you like it or not!' " I put the note down, and began eating my omlet. It was perfect, as always. Once I finished my omlet I gulped my orange juice. I got out of bed and grabed some clothes. I went out into the hall way to make sure no one was home, I was by myself. I ran down the hall to the bathroom to take a shower. I got out of the shower, and began to dress. I blow dried my hair and curled it. I grabbed my dirty clothes, put it in the hamper and walked back to my room. I sat in there for what seemed like an hour, and then I heard the door bell ring. I thought to myself. Again the door bell rang. "I'm coming Piper!" I said. I opened the door and it wasn't Piper that I found. It was a whole group of kids that looked to be about my age. "Who are you?" I asked. "Doesn't matter, we're here to get you to your brother, and to school." said the boy in the front of the group as he burst into the house. "What are you talking about? Get out of my house!" I said. "Yeah, I would if I could, but I can't so I won't." "Who in the hell do you think you are? Coming into my house like you own the place." I said, my blood at boiling point. "Me? Well I'm Aaron Holmes, only don't say my last name. And I was sent here to get you, and trust me, I'm not happy about it." said Aaron. "Yeah, well I ain't so thrilled either. Get out of my house!" I yelled. "As much as I would like to do that, I can't." said Aaron, smiling. Even though he was getting on my nerves that smile made a chill run up my spine. Aaron has perfect dirty-blonde hair that falls just over his eyes, luscious lips, slightly muscular body, baby blue eyes that make you melt, and a perfect nose. "Oh and why is that?" I asked, trying my best to not get lost in his eyes. "I don't know, we were sent here by Professor Dumbledore, we're supposed to take you to meet your brother and then we have to get the both of you to school for our first year and Hogwarts." said Aaron, looking at me strangly. "Ok, first quiestion. Who is Professor Dumbledore? Second, how do you know anything about me or my so called brother? Third, what do you mean by our first year at Hogwarts? And fourth, what the hell is Hogwarts?" I asked. "Wait a minuet! You don't know about Hogwarts?" asked Aaron. "No shit sherlock!" I said. "Language!" said Aaron smiling. "Oh shut up! Now unless you plan on telling me what I want to know, you might as well get out." I said. "Ok, ok, don't get your wand in a knot." said Aaron. "What?" I asked. "Never mind, do you want to know about Hogwarts and your brother or not?" said Aaron. "Yes, I do." I said calmly pointing them to the couches and taking a seat myself. "So tell me." I said. "Ok, first things first. Dumbledore is the Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was there when you and your brother were born!" "Wait, witchcraft? I think I remeber him, from my dream or preminition, or what ever it was." I said. "Um... yeah ok, can I continue?" said Aaron. I nodded. "Well, moving on, we know alot about you because Dumbledore told us alot about you. We've been looking for you for about a month now, mainly because we were looking in London, but he helped us scry for you and we found you here, we also know alot about Harry, that's your brother, because he's really, really, famous. Third what I mean by our first year is that we, just like you and your brother, are barley entering Hogwarts, see in the wizarding world kids don't go to scholl until they're eleven, and then come of age to use magic and everything at seventeen. We go to school for seven years. Fourth, as you may have guessed Hogwarts is a school. A magical school, for kids like you. I know you have powers, but I also know that you have powers beyond the ordinary witches and wizards in our world. I know that you dont need a wand to do magic, we all do!" said Aaron. "Wait, you mean I'm more powerful than all of you put together?" I asked. Aaron nodded, and a look of amazment crossed my face. "Well that is, you will be, once you've mastered your powers." said Aaron. "Now you sound like Piper!" I said. "Who sounds like me?" asked Piper as she walked in the front door. "Er...." "Alex Lily Potter, I"m gone for three hours and you through a party!" yelled Piper."I don't even know who they are, but they said they can help me find my brother." I said in my defence. ~You Know You Love Me~ AlexPotter
