I do plan to finish this story, real life has taken over. Thank you everyone who's been patient. :)
It has been about four years since Voldemort was defeated. Neville Longbottom has a comfortable life teaching at Hogwarts with all his friends, yet he is missing something in his life. Then he meets Aurora Hitchcock, owner of a Potions shop in Hogsmeade Village. Together they frantically work on an ancient potion for protection from a devastating spell, in the shadow of a rising threat. Before they can discover the unknown enemy, someone from Aurora’s past returns. What will happen when ancient Potions meet modern Herbology?
Wonderful banners thanks to Khrys!
I just found your story. It's very good. Lot's of action! Would love more romance with Harry & Ginny. Looking forward to reading more!
Author's Response: i\'m glad u like it! and if u like action, just wait until chapters 19-22. as for harry and ginny, i do try but i cant really make it a romance novel.
Very cool! I loved how Luna got the job done with the other 5 argued. I'm glad Hermione & Ginny got Ron for his PMS comment. Typical male! I enjoyed this chapter. Looking forward to reading more.
Author's Response: thanx! since luna wud be the only sensible one in this situation (deciding who goes to mom in ootp: harry-\"1\" ron-\"3\" neville-\"4\" luna-\"i believe there are 6 of us\"), i just decided to do that. yes, i laughed so hard when i typed that scene w/ ron, hermy, and ginny. i\'m off to submit the next chapter!
Cute story. I think you should do a sequel!
Great chapter! So glad that Ginny was able to get Harry out of there & not be angry at him for veela/creature things kissing him. I really like the role of the necklace. Looking forward to the next chapter.
Wow, interesting. Hermione still have doubts that Ron loves her, but the manipulation wasn't so bad because they went in together. If anyone can save them, it will be Harry and Ginny. I'm so glad you updated, I was beginning to think you abandoned the story. Can't wait for more, please don't make us wait so long for the next chapter.
Do you plan to update? I like this story. Fleur is so right about 'finding happiness were we can'-Harry needs to see that Ginny is going to give him that and stop being so noble. I hope to that you update soon.
Author's Response: Hello, glad you liked the story so far. To answer your question. Yes i do plan updating shortly. Chapter 5 is currently with my Beta.
Good chapter. On thing I noticed-you have Ginny receive a P in Astronomy-did you mean A? Why would she contiue with it if she did Poor? I like how Fred & George are helping with the destruction of the horcruxes. I'm looking forward to reading more.
Author's Response: Hello, I actually had it listed that Ginny may drop either Astronomy or Care of Magical Creatures. It would depend on what the Head of House says.
Was Draco under the Imperious Curse? Wow, to go from warning her to taking the baby?! Please don't wait too long to update!!!!!! Must know what happens next!
Author's Response: Yes!! But there are plenty of theories and I promise I won\'t keep you hanging TOO long. I\'ll do my best to get chap 13 to you all as soon as i can! thanks!
Yes, the Imperius Curse! Draco may not be perfect, but I think that he's changed his ways. Poor little Amy, I hope they don't hurt her. I feel so bad for Ginny, being a mother myself, I can imagine how horrible she feels and racked with guilt. I hope they have Amy back in the next chapter. I was so happy to see an update-looking forward to more!!!!! Oh, yes, bad Snape-I hope Harry gets him!
Author's Response: Yay it\'s finally up! I can post the next chapter! Thank you!! :D
Malfoy? Wow-never expected that. The first month of motherhood is awful-you captured that well. I really liked the scene at the park, Ginny seemed to be more at peace. Very nice.
Author's Response: cool - you have kids? I haven\'t a clue about mtherhood really i\'m just guessing it\'s hard!! thanks for the review! yeah malfoy\'s back lol!
Great chapter, even though it was so sad. You really captured the emotion well. I look forward to more.
Author's Response: Thanks, glad you thought so. I guess it was kinda sad, but I\'m glad you thought it was good too.
Wow-I loved it! Wonderful.
Author's Response: Thank you very much!!
Good chapter! Amy is safe with Harry and Ginny. Snape is dead!!!!!! Draco will tell them the truth now. Wonderful job! I'm excited for more.
Author's Response: Thank you!! I\'ll try to update for all of you in suspense!
Wow! That was a lot to devour in one chapter. I can't wait to find out what happens next!
Author's Response: Yeah, it really was, but I\'m so glad you still enjoyed it!
I had given up on this story since it had been so long between updates. Good chapter though.
Author's Response: Ah, I\'m sorry to hear that, but I know how you feel. I\'ve had to do that to a couple of other stories myself and feel really terrible that I did it with my own! Sorry and hope it\'s never so long again!
That was a very touching letter at the end of the chapter. It's so very true that we don't always realize the lives that we touched or changed. It's nice sometimes when you find out. Please don't make us wait too long for the last chapter.
I'm so happy that Harry and Ginny are rebuilding their lives together. They deserve that so very much. Ginny did an amazing job with James, he is such a good kid. I can't wait to read about Harry teaching at Hogwarts-very neat.
Author's Response: Thank you! I think this chapter is a little bit ofter because they are trying to work on rebuilding what they used to have, but it does get a bit more exciting as that unfolds.
Please update soon! I really like this story. I hope Ginny says yes!! I can't wait to read more.
Wow, this is really good! Remus is such a good friend and father figure to all of them. I liked the three, two, one and she was in his arms, kissing him. I am very intrigued by these dreams. Really looking forward to more!
Author's Response: I love Remus! He\'s among my favorites when it comes to characters. You actually liked that part!?!?! I\'m amazed. I have a few friends read over the chapter, and that was usually the part they told me to add more detail too. I tried, but it just didn\'t work. The thing is, after a certain amount of kisses you write, they all start to sound the same and it gets boring for the reader. You would think that this kiss, being the first one they have had in months, would be amazingly passionate and such. By keeping it rather simple, I guess I succeeded in keeping it more realistic rather than overly dramatic. I hope. You know, romance is hard to write for me, and I\'m rambling. ... I do that. Anyway, I have a plan for these dreams (kind of). More of a rough idea, I guess. Let\'s just say this may get a little into New Age-like beliefs. Key word: may. Thanks for reviewing!
Great story! Just love it! What's going on with Ginny's knee & Harry's elbow? Just weird. They better name that baby soon! Looking forward to reading more!
