"You are Amara Potter?" Augusta asked

"At one point I was, but I'm sad to say that Amara Potter died in the Egyptian desert. Amara O'Connell was born in her place." I said

Augusta looked at me with sadness in her eyes.

"I don't understand why they would do something so horrible." Augusta said

"I can think of a few possible reasons. One they wanted to focus all of their attention on their precious boy-who-lived. Another could be that they thought if I stayed that I would be jealous of their precious little boy. Third is that Dumbledore told them that I would be jealous and that they should focus on Jr." I said

Augusta just looked at me.

"I know that you are light and very much with Dumbledore..." I was cut off

"No. I am very much neutral. My son however was not, he believed in everything Dumbledore said. I never did." Augusta said

I thought about a few things and asked her something.

"You went to school with McGonagall correct?" I asked

"Yes for a short time." Augusta answered

"Did you also attend school with a Tom Riddle?" I asked

Augusta looked at me in shock.

"Yes. He was in Slytherin." Augusta said

"Do you know who he became after he left Hogwarts?" I asked

"No, I can't say that I do. However, I do know about what he believed in before he left school. I will also say that if he was still around and had still believed as he once did then I wouldn't stand in his way." Augusta said

I nodded my head.

"We should most likely head back into the other room. Adom doesn't like me leaving him alone for long." I said

"Who exactly is this Adom person I've never heard his last name before?" Augusta asked

"Adom is someone my family met in Egypt twice." I said

Augusta raised an eyebrow at me.

"He has a very old soul." I said

We walked back into the living room and I sat back down next to Adom.

"Is everything alright?" He asked

"Everything is fine." I said

He nods his head. We talked a little while longer before Augusta declared that it was about time for them to head home. We all stood up and headed to the fireplace so that they could floo home.

"Neville, would you like to come with us when we get our school supplies?" I asked

Neville and his Grandmother exchange a look and she gives a small smile.

"I would very much like to." Neville said

"Okay, I owl you when we decided on a day and time." I said

"I will look forward to the owl." Neville said

He and his Grandma then stepped into the fireplace and with a flash of green fire they were both gone. Once the fire was gone I turned to face my family.
