Chapter 1: Histories
Dumbledore sighed as he read over the letter from the Minister. The ministry was trying to impose a teacher into the school for the upcoming year. Dumbledore was told if he couldn't find a teacher by a week before school starts then the Minister would appoint a teacher to the Defense Against the Dark Arts position.
Dumbledore looked up as a silvery white Patronus bounded through his open office window. The Patronus took the form of a dog. Sirius Black's Patronus.
"Professor you may want to call a meeting. I found something quite interesting on my family tree," the voice of Sirius Black said from the Patronus. The Patronus evaporated after giving its message.
Dumbledore briefly wondered what was so serious for Sirius to sound as anxious as he had in the message.
Dumbledore put the letter he had been holding down and retreated to his chambers for the night.
"Hey," Sirius said as he walked into the dining room the next morning, "Molly, Arthur, Moony. Can I show you guys something after breakfast?"
"Of course, Sirius," Molly smiled politely.
"Can we come?" Ron asked his face momentarily lighting up.
"Sorry, Ron," Sirius apologized with a sincere smile, "I don't think that's the best idea at the moment."
Ron's face fell but another smaller and sadder smile showed on his lips after a moment to hide his pain at being left out once again.
During their breakfast Order members started to arrive to find out what Sirius had found. Dumbledore was last to arrive and by his arrival everyone had finished eating their fill.
"Alright, kids out!" Molly commanded her small horde of children and Hermione.
Once all of the school aged wizards were out of the room Molly turned to Sirius with a kind smile, "What did you want to show us, Sirius?"
Some people murmured about not wanting to be here this early but Dumbledore had insisted it was important when he sent the message about the meeting.
"It is apparently we have some undiscovered royals but also descendants of some dark family trees," Sirius said as he lead the group to the tapestry room.
"See," he said pointing at the burned portrait labeled: Sally Riddle.
"I remember her," Dumbledore's eyes lit up in recognition, "Sally went to Hogwarts with you guys under the name of Sally Jackson. You remember she was a Hufflepuff and one of the most powerful witches of her age. If I remember she moved to America a little while after her mother died. I however did not know that she met King Plato. The Olympia family became really reclusive after World War II."
"Wait, you're saying Sally Jackson is the daughter of Voldemort?" Lupin asked.
"That's exactly what I'm saying. If Perseus is the son of her and a royal then he could be powerful too."
Sirius pointed to the next pair: Beryl Laurel and King Zander Olympia.
"I think I remember her. She was a Slytherin with Regulus. They were friends I believe. She moved to the U.S to become an actress," Sirius explained.
All eyes moved to the last trio connected to Sally Riddle, King Plato Olympia, and Perseus Jackson.
King Hayden Olympia, Maria Di Angelo, and Nico Di Angelo.
"If I remember correctly Maria Di Angelo attended during my time at Hogwarts," Dumbledore tried to recall, "I don't remember what house she was in but it would be impossible for her to have a child this young. At this point she should be at least a hundred."
"So what are we going to do about this? They haven't ever attended Hogwarts or any other magical school," Molly asked.
"If they've had no training it would be wise to offer them a place at Hogwarts so they can learn to control their magic. It may also be beneficial to Hogwarts to have three royals attend. I don't exactly have the best reputation right now with Voldemort being back," Dumbledore contemplated.
"We don't know where they are," Arthur Weasley pointed out.
"That's where a tracking spell will come in. Children born of very power families will most likely give off a very powerful aura that we should be able to find. Give me a week at most to prepare a spell, then we will continue on what to do from there," Dumbledore told the order before gracefully gliding out of the room. The order trickled out. A few stayed behind to help with the cleaning effort.
It's a little short only 743 words but that's because this is only the beginning of the story. Did I do okay with backstories? How were the character's personalities? Where they too OOC?
-Scarlett.
