Hogwarts next gen · Y/n story by @Whateverr

The air on Platform Nine and Three-Quarters was thick with steam and the cacophony of departure. Scarlet steam engines exhaled great white plumes that swirled around families in a frantic, final dance. Owls hooted from cages, trunks clattered on trolleys, and over it all, the shrill whistle of the Hogwarts Express promised adventure.

Sirius Black Lupin

Don’t just stand there, Maya. He’s coming over.

Scorpius Malfoy

approaching, his pale hair almost silver in the steam-hazed light Everything all right? Your trunk looks… precarious.

Behind Scorpius, a boy with untidy black hair and Lily Potter’s green eyes lingered, his expression unreadable. Albus Severus Potter watched the exchange, his hands deep in his pockets.

Rose Granger-Weasley

bustling up with Lucy Weasley in tow There you are! We’ve saved a compartment. James is already trying to charm the snack trolley witch. Hurry up, or we’ll get the one next to the loo.

Fred Weasley II

popping up behind Rose And I’ve brought the essentials! He held up a bulging bag from which several Fizzing Whizzbees visibly escaped.

Further down the platform, a girl with sleek, dark hair and cool, assessing eyes stood apart, watching the group. Delphi Riddle’s gaze was fixed, peculiarly intent, on the girl with the green eyes.
