On October 31st 1981 at the same one year old Harry Potter was left on the doorstep of 4 Privet drive in Little Whinging a two year old girl with black curls and hazel eyes was left on the doorstep of Drs Richard and Helen Granger by a man who would do anything for the greater good who only left a note with the child’s name and nothing else.
On October 31st 1962 two year old James Potter woke up alone without his twin and Charlus and Dorea Potter woke up to the sound of their son screaming for his Mia. Terrified they ran to the nursery devastated to find there baby girl was missing and while Charlus called in his fellow aurors Dorea Potter while holding her distraught son just knew only someone trusted could get through the wards at Potter Manor. From that moment on Dorea who was a born into the Most Noble and Ancient House of Black would not rest until she found her little girl and the person who took her would pay for the crimes committed against her family.
Helen and Richard Granger knew their daughter was different from the moment she had her first bout of accidental magic. It wasn’t just because Hermione had a hard time making friends due to being quiet and bookish. It was when a young bully decided to push Hermione off the slide and she glided down gently without even a scratch on her that they knew something was special about their Hermione.
From that moment on her parents noticed strange things happening around their little girl. They’d find Hermione with cookies that were hidden away that they knew she’d have no way of reaching. Or there was the time they walked in her room and caught her stuffies floating in the air to her outstretched hand. Over the years they just decided that there little girl was special not just because she was book smart but because she had some sort of special powers that neither of them wanted to bring any attention to.
On September 19th the year Hermione turned eleven was when they finally got answers. A woman turned up in a strange hat and clothes and told the Grangers Hermione was a witch and had been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry. They of course felt relieved someone wasn’t going to turn up and start experimenting on there little girl in the name of science and for some reason little Hermione Granger just knew without a doubt she would finally belong somewhere.

“Trevor where are you” called Neville Longbottom nearly in tears on the Hogwarts express while he searched high and low through the corridors and compartments. In one of the compartments he came across a young girl who decided the help him.
Hermione decided to help the young boy who would become one of her first friends in the Wizarding world. So as they both searched Hermione got this strange feeling a feeling her magic told her to trust as she came across a compartment where a young boy with black hair and bright greens eyes sat. Hermione could do nothing but stare at the boy her magic felt drawn to and then noticed some similarities between the two.
Whether it was the shape of there jaw line or the color of their wild hair she wondered whether or not they were somehow related. As they both just stared at one another a red head Hermione didn’t notice spoke up asking if there was something weird on the other boys face. Hermione who seemed to keep her observations to herself for now decided to introduce herself and was surprised when the boy she felt drawn too stated his name was Harry, Harry Potter.
Deciding she would keep an eye on the boy her magic felt drawn to Hermione sat down and decided to fix his glasses for him noticing he didn’t look very healthy. Wondering why it made her feel sick this poor boy looked like skin and bones and his clothes were too big for him she decided right then and there they would be best friends so she could make sure he was safe and if nothing else her magic would settle being close by.

James Potter has never been the same since his twin was taken from him. He knew somewhere deep inside his magic recognized Mia was alive just so far away he couldn’t reach her. He didn’t understand why someone would take his other half. That today of all days he should have her here while he boarded the Hogwarts express alone. He sat in a compartment thinking about it when the door opened and two boys walked in and asked if they could sit. After learning their names Sirius Black and Remus Lupin and discussing quidditch James decided maybe this wouldn’t be so bad and just maybe Hogwarts wouldn’t be so bad without his twin.
