Story Notes:
Disclaimer: J.K. Rowling owns everything related to Harry Potter.
Some lines leading up to the attack are taken directly from "Forbidden Forest" in Sorcerer's Stone. I'm sure you can recognize what parts are J.K.'s and what parts are mine. :D
Dedication: To Dream Painter and HBPrincesa, who both helped make Hagrid sound like Hagrid. Trust me. My Hagrid wasn't pretty.

Okay, so I was listening to "Everybody loves me" song on YouTube while writing this. So I apologize for the happiness/absurdity that came out in the chapter. I quote several well-known lines from shows and movies. Again, apologies, but enjoy. :D

Thank you to all the people that are following this story.
9. Storm Passes by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 6] (3470 words)
So, under the threat of pitchforkes and torches being sent my way, I updated. :D So, you should recognize lots of scenes from Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone, namely from the chapter "Through the Trapdoor." Those scenes are definitely JK's, not mine. Finally, I'm not really sure why I torture Aurora so much, but, well, I apologize. Enjoy. :D
10. Spending the Day with Dad by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 4] (6647 words)
So, on FFnet, I asked Tragedy fans what three things they would like to see in this chapter. Well, I actually had a tie. The results were as follows:
Harry and Severus talk about the events with Quirrell (Harry reveals his fears) [5 votes],
Harry and Severus brew a potion together, [5 votes]
Harry and Severus finish discussing about Harry's dislike of his mother (Snape shows him memories, etc) [4 votes],
and Harry and Severus have a father-son moment at Lily's grave [4 votes]
I hope you enjoy. :D
11. Summer Son by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 8] (6017 words)
First off, some of you were wondering last chapter if we learn what Severus saw when he took the potion. We will not be seeing that in this story. However, in the sequel (CS-era) called From Kinship to Family, we will definitely find out what he saw.
I've been doing a lot of planning with this trip that Harry and Severus take, but of course I'm an American. So, if I mistakenly describe something, I'm sorry. However, I'll admit that I've been using Google Maps a lot and going to the actual websites of the places, attempting to learn about every place our favorite boys are going on their trip to make it as close to the real thing as possible.
Lastly, you should pay real close attention to certain hints I give throughout this chapter. Enjoy. :D
12. Relics from the Past by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 3] (3805 words)
Harry gets a little bratty at times in this chapter. :D Enjoy.
13. Beware of Poppies by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 5] (4587 words)
Written while listening to Glee original songs, so might be sappy and absurd in spots. :D Enjoy, though. :D
14. Breaking the Spell by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 5] (3667 words)
Thank you so much for the reviews and adds. I'm very appreciative and glad that you're enjoying it. Enjoy. :D
15. Manchester's Secrets by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 2] (2933 words)
So, I know we're not really certain where Spinner's End is, but the majority of HP scholars believe it's near Manchester. Either way, enjoy. :D
16. Shedding the Snake Skin by Lady Lanera [Reviews - 2] (4840 words)
So, I had to break this chapter up on here. Sorry about that, but luckily I've finished it so you just have to click next. :D Enjoy.
