    LOL Trelawney... *shakes head in amusement* Great start so far. I am very interested to see where you are taking us. I can't wait to see how it all unfolds. A niece of Lupin is a good twist. Can't wait for more! :o)

    Author's Response: yeah Sybil and her dramatics! Merlin save us, as Sev would say.  Glad you like Moony's niece, she's quite a character, as you'll see later on.

    New student... she seems interesting, that's for sure. I'm curious why she just now popped in and how she is going to be. Great start and I hope you can update again soon!

    Author's Response: You'll find out why in a future chapter, don't worry and I'll be updating probably tomorrow!  Thanks for all your reviews!

    hmm... so Miss Lupin is staggeringly beautiful at 13, poised but not arrogant, and Harry looks like he's signing up for a crush on her already... please tell me this isn't a Mary Sue!

    as for the apology - I was not too impressed with it and I hope Snape won't be either. He never struck me as the type to enjoy a public airing of emotions (unless it's humiliating his enemies, which this doesn't quite fit).

    Author's Response: Nope, not really, but she is a bit different from your average British girl, and the boys there think she's kind of exotic.  There's a lot more to Aria than looks and you'll see that later.  The apology, well, you weren't meant to be too impressed with it, though Dumbledore was sincere, he was also hoping to pressure Harry into being his little puppet again, which isn't going to happen anytime soon.  The one good thing the apology did was to show the students that Snape was not and never had been a bad guy.

    Hi. I rather enjoyed your previous fic, which was refreshing and fun, but I must say I'm rather dissapointed by this sequel... I can get over the weird character change Ron got since this is an AU (but Canon@!Ron would be the first to sneer how any Slytherin or child of a Slytherin was Obviously Evil and, whilst stuffing his face with food, blather on about 'toadstool not changing their spots')
    No, what really makes me fear for this fic is Aria. She has 'Mary Sue' written all over her. I mean, she's sooo beautiful with the wavy hair and the mysterious amber eyes that she makes every male drool (including the teaching staff) even though she's only 13, but she's also perky and, although no Goody Two-shoes (because She Sorted Into Slytherin) she's Obviously Good (since she spurned Malfoy)

    Please don't do this... I was really looking forward to this sequel, and indeed I enjoyed Dumbledore's theatrics (why oh why did the Snapes return to Hogwarts? What possible purpose does it serve? Is Hogwart's curriculum specially aimed towards Voldemort-slaying? No. It only brings Harry back to England where his blood can be used to restore Voldie's body. Selffulfilling prophecy, anyone? Sigh..)

    I really do like your stories, but Mary Sues set my teeth on edge. I fully expect Aria to be revealed as an Unicorn-Pegasus animagus in the next chapter. Or a Half-Werewolf at the very least... :-)

    Author's Response:

    Well, remember, Ron knows that this is Harry, after all, so of course he isn't going to malign his best friend! And Hermione knows too, so they won't be surprised at all when Dumbledore reveals the identity of the Snape look alike.  And Aria is not what you think she is at all, she actually has a very well developed background, she's not phenomonally pretty, except when she smiles, and Snape certainly is not fantasizing about her.  She is not a perfect person by any means.

    And I had the Snapes return to Hogwarts because I wanted Harry to meet Sirius and since this is an Au fic, Voldemort might not be restored the wya he was in the books, plus the fact is that Harry wants to prove that he's not the prophecy's pawn by fulfilling it in a different manner . . .with the help of his father, who will fight the final battle BESIDE him and be instrumental in defeating Voldy once an for all.  None of this could have happened unless they returned to britain, and so while it may look like they are fulfilling the old prophecy, they're really sending it down a different fork. 

    Wait and see what develops, after all this is only the first chapter!

    Awesome! Not just a sequel but new twists! I love the new student. Bold, confident, beautiful, perfect for Harry if that's where this is going. And that would make Lupin and Snape relatives, of a sort, should everthing work out. Love it. I also loved the ending though it ended way too soon!

    Author's Response: Sorry, I know it was kind of short, but I thought ending it with Trelawney passed out on the floor was kind of a funny cliffhanger.  As for Aria, she will play a major role in this fic, and in Harry and Sev's lives as well.  You'll learn more about  her in three chapters.  One thing I'll tell you though, she's not your ordinary witch!

    LOL. I can't stop laughing at Trelawney fainting.

    Great begining and I can't wait for more.

    Author's Response: Yeah, I had to put that in there, I couldn't resist! LOL! Couldn't you just see it, though? It's a typical Trelawney behavior.  You'll be seeing more of our batty Seer in future chapters. :) I'll try and update soon!
