loisa: Oh hey, do I know you? **laughs* I post at Fanfiction.net (usually there first, so you probably will see an update there before here), AOE3, HPFF (although, not much recently as it just takes too long for them to validate out chapters). I may have to look into the one you mentioned though. About the appearances with Ginny and Dahlia; I figured Ginny's hair is more flamy, like fire, where Lily's (Dahlia's) was more reddish-coppery. There are different tones of reds, after all :P

Chapter 6-
Severus deposited the last of the Pepperup potions that he had made into the hospital's storage room. He had made an extra fifty cases this year. In the previous one, students had depleted the stock before the New Year had hit. Severus certainly didn't want to have to worry about making extra potions. Not with his extra responsibilities added on this year.
"Thanks, Severus!" Poppy said, coming in from her office.
Severus gave her a simple nod, knowing she'd not notice his reply anyway, as she was also busy with the final preparations of the upcoming school year.
He still had a month to burn so he went down to his office to decide what he would make next. Severus scowled when he seen Albus sitting behind his desk, as if it was his own office. He'd need to come up with a new locking spell.
Since he had been forced to help the Dursley girl, he had not seen Albus after giving his report about the Potter boy. It had been a pleasant and quiet few weeks. Time that, he could honestly say, he had enjoyed.
"Yes?" Severus asked.
"I went down to the Improper Use of Magic Office today." Albus said casually.
Severus suddenly had a bad gut feeling. "And?"
"The Dursley home is undergoing quite a few simple spell castings."
"And what does this have to do with me?" He said stiffly. "I told her the law, if she doesn't listen, that's a problem for the IUMO, not me."
"It is natural for a young witch or wizard to experiment with spells once they get their first set of books and wand." Albus set his hands on top of the desk and folded them.
"Yes, it is not officially forbidden until the first Holiday break. So, again, why are you here bothering me?"
"Just thought I would share the knowledge." Albus stood up from the desk and walked to the door.
Severus lifted an eyebrow in question as the man appeared to want to finish his game play.
"The spells are brilliant." Albus finally supplied. "Perhaps very similar to someone that I used to know." He said upon exiting the office.

Dahlia and Dudley crept into Harry's new room early in the morning and stopped by his bedside. "Happy birthday!" They cheered together.
Their poor cousin bolted up from his sleep. His hair, an absolute mess, sticking out every which way. His eyes found what they were holding and he smiled widely. "Wow..." he breathed.
"Dudley helped!"
"And the frosting is not from a tub!" Dudley informed proudly, handing Harry the plate of cupcakes, all decorated with wizard icons; wands, spell books, and cauldrons.
"This is...great! Thanks a lot!" He set the plate down and jumped out of bed.
"We even got you gifts!" Dahlia said.
Harry smiled widely. "I'll get dressed and be right out!"
The twins left his room then, Dudley closing the door behind him. "Never seen anyone that excited before." He said, as they went into Dahlia's room to grab Harry's birthday gifts.
Dahlia smiled. "It's good to see him so happy. He has his own room, and his own clothes, and now he'll have his own video game."
"Mum doesn't even know that I asked for this to give to Harry." Dudley snickered quietly.
"So that's how you got it for him?" Dahlia's lips formed into a sly grin. "Dudley, you snake, you!"
"I am surprised she got it for me, given the title, even with my tantrum."
"Me too. Anything with wizards or witches and she goes all nutty."
"Okay! Ready!" Harry appeared at the doorway, dressed in his tidy new clothing. His hair was still a wreck though.
They gave Harry their gifts to him. Dahlia had given him his own brand new copy of a book that he really liked, having had borrowed hers multiple of times. Harry eyes lit up when he saw the game though. "Wizard's Force?"
"I played it at Paul's house, you'll like it. There are a lot of wicked spells in it." Dudley said. "We can play it together."
Harry then thanked them both for their thoughtfulness. He was truly grateful. His happiness was ruined by Mum's screeching for him to start breakfast. Even on his birthday, he was suppose to work like a servant.
"It's his birthday!" Dudley reminded her bluntly.
As usual, Mum acted like Dudley hadn't said anything at all when he said something to stand up for Harry.
"It's okay, I am happy enough." Harry said, leading the way to the kitchen to make breakfast.
In the middle of their meal, there was a loud thud at the door. Harry automatically stood up to go see who it was.
"'Ello, Harry!" A big voice boomed. "Merlin, Dumbledore warned me yeh be small, but yeh just skin and bones!"
Dahlia hurried to the living room after hearing the name of Dumbledore's mentioning. Her family followed, Mum and Dad stopping a fair distance at the doorway between the kitchen and living room.
A giant of a man stood just inside of the house, shaking Harry's hand. Well, actually his whole entire body shook with the gesture. "N-nice to me-et you t-oo." Harry struggled to say.
"Are you Harry's assistant?" Dahlia asked, approaching the man. "Mr. Hagrid?"
"Just Hagrid, and, yes I-" he paused, looking at her, then looked back at Harry. "Blimey! Yeh two-" he gasped. "Yeh look just like 'em when they were li'l." He wiped away a tear.
"Like who?" Harry asked, backing away from the man as he entered more into the house to sit down on the sofa.
"Well, like yeh parents, Harry."
"You knew my Mum and Dad?" Harry asked surprised.
"Of course I did!" the man burst out. "Everyone knew them - they were famous."
"F-famous...? For what?"
"Harry, yeh must know about yeh parents. Tey were both a very powerful witch and wizard."
"I'm sorry..." Harry frowned, shaking his head. "I don't..."
Hagrid's eyes grew wide. He rose from the sofa in anger. "Yeh don't know nothing about them?!"
Dahlia jumped a mile, the sound of his roaring voice frightening her. She stepped several steps back.
"Only that they died in a car crash..."
"CAR- WHAT!?"
Dahlia leaped out of the man's path as he thundered over to Mum and Dad who cowered into the kitchen, putting the table between them. "Yeh didn't tell this boy about his parents?!" He demanded. "He doesn't know anything?!"
"Hey! I'm not stupid!" Harry stepped up to man. "I know all sorts of things! I know math, and I can read-"
"I am not talkin' about tat, Harry. Yere parents didn't die the way yeh have been told." He glared at Mum and Dad.
"Well, how was I suppose to explain that they had gotten themselves blown up?" Mum huffed angrily.
"What are you talking about?!" Harry demanded. "Someone please tell me...! The truth!" He narrowed his eyes.
The giant man's face softened as he looked at Harry. "I just can't believe tey didn't tell you." He said tearfully. "It all begins with-" his face showed a bit of fear. "Blimey, I don't know how to tell yeh, Harry. Tere was a wizard. An evil one. People even still fear sayin' his name, even though he's no longer around." He shuddered. "I am afraid to say it."
"Please... write it down or something." Harry suggested.
The man shook his head. "Never mind, I'll only say this once, so listen closely." He took a deep breath and whispered, "Voldemort."
He explained the dark days in the past before Harry was born. Those days continued up until the day his parents were attack and killed. The wizard went to also kill baby Harry, attacking him, too, for some unknown reason, but the spell back fired, striking the evil wizard instead. This is what caused Harry's mark, that, up until this day, they had thought was a birthmark. It was really a scar.
The giant blew his nose on a messy looking cloth the size of a pillow case. "It's just so sad!"
Dad snorted. "It was their own fault. Them weirdos were dumb enough to get themselves involved in such a stupid war. A good riddance to them, if I do say so myself!"
Hagrid took out something from his enormous coat; a pink umbrella. He pointed it at Dad "Say another word, Dursley!" He threatened darkly. "I'll skin yeh alive, I will!"
Dad shrunk back immediately, afraid to get speared with the tip of Hagrid's umbrella.
"That wasn't a nice thing to say, Dad." Dahlia said with a frown.
Harry curiously asked an abundance of questions about his parents then, learning that they had been popular at Hogwarts, and had lots of friends. They were also part of a group that fought against the evil wizard in a war.
"Are yeh ready to get yeh stuff for school now, Harry?"
Harry nodded eagerly. "You know so, Hagrid! Dahlia has told me all about the shops and things. And we've been reading about Hogwarts!"
Hagrid patted his back roughly. Although, for Hagrid, it may have been gently because of his size, but Harry was tossed forward a bit with each impact that his hand made.
"Right then, Harry, let's get goin' then. We 'ave lots to do-Oh! I almost forgot!" Hagrid took out a box from his coat and handed it to Harry. "Happy birthday! It may be a bit squashed, sorry about dat!" He chuckled sheepishly.
Harry grinned at the cake that lay in the box. "It's great, Hagrid! Thanks!"
"I'll take it, Harry." Dahlia offered.
"Thanks, Lia." He said, handing it to her.
"Bye, Harry!" Dahlia said. Dudley and her waved to their cousin.
They didn't see Harry until much later that evening. Dahlia and Dudley were searching for insects for Stivus to eat. She stored them in a jar for later use. Stivus was slinking around happily in the cool grass, finding a snack here and there.
Harry came walking up the walk path, pulling a trunk behind him, and in one hand, he carried a cage that housed a white owl. He grinned when he seen the others. "It was great!" He said. "I have my own bank account! Mum and Dad left me a fortune. I am not filthy rich or anything, but I don't have to worry about clothes anymore, and I can afford all the school supplies I'll ever need! And... Everyone knows me, it's so weird. They think I am a celebrity! They shake my hand, and everything. Just like on the Telly!"
"Wow! How exciting, Harry!" Dahlia was positively happy for him.
"Your owl is pretty." Dudley commented.
"I named her Hedwig. She'll deliver our letters to you when we write, Dud."
"Really?" Dudley's eyes widened. "Wicked! I can't wait!"
"Oh... will she eat my Stivus?" Dahlia asked in sudden alarm, picking up her companion and keeping him close.
"I don't know.." Harry frowned. "I hope not!"
The children watched the owl closely, but Hedwig appeared to have little interest in Stivus. Stivus showed no sign of being in distress with having a predator so close to him. Harry touched the top of Stivus' head for his attention. The boy then hissed a few things that neither Dudley or Dahlia could understand. Stivus stuck out his tongue, presumably in reply. Harry then smiled. "He's safe. He's been charmed to not look appetizing to her!"
"Great!" Dahlia said happily.
