[/font][/color][/center]Plot
The year is 1996 And everything that was is not! For you see a great thing happened a very long time ago that altered history and made an impact for the better...or maybe for the worse.
Four years ago I stood by and watched as the future was changed by a slight amount of courage shown from the most unsuspecting of them all; Draco Malfoy. After a late night duel in the Astronomy tower four misfits found themselves in detention with the grounds keeper Hagrid. They were led deep into the forbidden forest and put on the duty of helping to find a niffler killer. The prized school detectors were being killed off and with no idea of what exactly it was they were looking for, they embarked. It was this opportunity that he who must not be named took in hopes of revenge. The little second year boy that caused him to lose all his power and resort him to this! A mere shadow! Mooching off magical creature’s souls to prolong his foreseen fate.
The boy was alone with only another soon to be minion aside him; like taking candy from a baby. He crept up, his footless path leaving him silent and deadly like a snake at the ready and then….a blinding light! He was shot back and knocked away quicker than he could blink his empty sockets. As he retreated the slightest glimpse of blonde hair and a raised wand cause the shadow to become infuriated and curse the families name; Malfoy
Now I tell you having his most prized followers’ child, protecting the only one who could drain his power came like a slap in the face to the Dark Lord and extreme punishment befell Lucius Malfoy himself. Infuriated he returned to his son and after many harsh words and raised canes later, the blonde returned to his school battered and bruised.
It was after this exact incident that caused the Golden Trio to gain another member for you see being protected by the Slytherin boy cause the young Gryffindor to realize that despite his upbringing there was some good within Draco Malfoy. It was from then on the Golden Quartet!
Harry Potter became neutral towards the Slytherin and left one another well enough alone that they could properly get along despite the house difference. Miss Granger too followed her friend and became civil to the boy and yet the young Mr. Weasley and Mr. Malfoy never really seen eye to eye.
By third year a new permanent Professor; one Remus J. Lupin came to Hogwarts after his appearance in Witch Weekly and no parents seemed to mind the lone werewolf. The dementors however continued searching high and low for the escaped convict; Sirius Black.
Fourth year; came and went without a hitch only the scheduled Triwizard Tournament, a 700 year tradition among the Wizarding schools became canceled after a hoard of trolls made camp on the grounds and despite the Ministry’s greatest efforts refused to move on.
Fifth year came and went and with now approaching sixth year I can feel the darkness brewing in my old bones. The Dark Lord is furious with the outcome of losing his most prized pawn and now everything must be set back till now….
It is time to let your story begin, for it is now the time for good to start the unity and rebel against the rising darkness.
Welcome to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry; I am your headmaster Albus Dumbledore and I await your arrival…
