The Forgotten Memory

Author's Note

A/N: Well, it's good to finally post a Harry Potter next generation story. I know there are loads of stories out there like this one, and I know very few of their authors are actually committed to finishing the stories they started. Indeed, some stop in place and they fail to go on due to lack of interest in both the readers and the writers.

This time, this story will be completed. I have seven stories planned. How is it that I would stay committed to such a story? Well, because they were already finished beforehand. They needed proof-reading and editing before release. Now, they are all released up to Book 6 with Book 7 on the way very soon. I find it helps to know where you're going by writing it all first and then posting it once it is proof-read a couple of times. Chapters are posted once every four or five days. Before you read, I just have a couple of things to say.

I have no delusions that my series is the best out there. That is for readers to decide. I have received favorable and unfavorable comparisons between me and other fantastic writers like Noah Phantom and Vekin87, both of whom promised to finish their series (one of whom already did.) My series has its own style. We remain in Hogwarts most of the time, stick mainly to Albus Potter's point of view and his thoughts as he deals with his own problems and more. It is because of this you may not be aware of the overarching plot until later. Part of the journey here is discovery and conclusion. There are hints of course but the first three books sets things up as a base mainly with social issues with a bit of outside issues mixed in to get the plot ball rolling before building up. So, if anyone reads thinking something serves as a poor excuse for a sequel, just keep in mind there is a rhyme and a reason for everything and it will all be explained by the end. In fact, if Book 4 does not have your interest by Chapter 5, you have reason to drop it.

To keep interest, we'll look at the genres my series has to offer. Adventure is a given, family and friendship are present, as is romance. Like the original Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, war is present, there will be a villain to deal with, in fact more than one, and it will feature our new band of protagonists, and old ones. You get characters of all types here, some sympathetic and some apathetic, but all with a motive and goal in mind. They are not all good, they are not all bad, they have personalities and feelings and if anyone has questions regarding their mindsets or why they acted the way they did, I can and will be able to answer. Please keep in mind that while anonymous reviews are welcome, I am unable to respond to them.

We begin with the Wizarding world entering into a new era dominated by a new Headmaster of Hogwarts, new Ministry figureheads, including Head of Aurors Harry Potter, whose legacy we see passed on to Albus Potter in the school. Story, of course follows Albus and his friends and family. What house does he make? Where does he end up? What sort of friends does he make? What sort of enemies does he make? What problems does he face? What does he do about it? In school, he faces these problems and much more as he faces a fierce rivalry to shake the school.

This story will be entirely canon with nothing taken contradictory to the books or to what J.K. Rowling, without whom this story would never have existed and to whom I owe a HUGE disclaimer, said as of June 2015. This means the relationships, their children, the nature of Hogwarts and the Ministry and so on remain as J.K. Rowling said they were post-war.

To keep the feel of the Harry Potter stories up, there will be love and war, deaths and despair but also a great amount of light-hearted moments and family, friends and everything in between. The concept of love will remain and as the series goes on, the concept of death once more makes itself present, and Harry Potter will remain as he is… a Wizarding hero of two wars. There will also be few parallels to the original books but nothing too obvious to make the conclusion clear cut from the beginning.

So no one will be confused, here is what Rowling gave away to us:

-Harry married Ginny and had James Sirius, Albus Severus and Lily Luna Potter.

-Ron married Hermione and had Rose and Hugo Weasley.

-Luna married Wizarding naturalist Rolf Scamander and had twins, Lorcan and Lysander Scamander.

-George married Angelina Johnson and had Roxanne and Fred Weasley.

-Percy married some woman named Audrey and had Molly and Lucy Weasley.

-Bill married Fleur and had Victorie, Dominique, and Louis Weasley.

-Neville is Herbology teacher and married Hannah Abbot out of the blue, landlady of the Leaky Cauldron.

-Ginny played for Holyhead Harpies, and then became Quidditch sponsor for the Daily Prophet.

-Draco, sobered by the Second War, married Astoria Greengrass and had Scorpius.

-Scorpius is a much better person than his father but will have a lot going against him.

-Hogwarts gets an entirely new Headmaster after McGonagall retires before Albus arrives at the school.

-Slytherin are not all bad but dark demeanor remains, hence Albus' fear of it.

-Ministry is a good place. Kingsley is Minister, Harry and Ron are Aurors and revolutionized the place and Hermione made life better for House-elves.

-The Hogwarts house of the next generation is widely unknown.

Please note: If you are wondering what book to read first or second or so on, pay attention to the numbers before the titles or refer to my profile. In any case, This story will be called Albus Potter and the Forgotten Memory and is considered his first year of Hogwarts.

So, seven books ready, one author on standby, and a host of readers prepared. Venture on and good luck.
