*June 1991*

June had arrived and the end of the school year was upon us, and all the students were looking forward to it.

Two boys about 13 or 14 years old could be seen playing at the big dining room table.

"This time I won" Jasper told him, smiling.

They had both been playing magical chess for a while to pass the time, and Jasper particularly liked playing chess.

"I guess I lost" he replied relieved. They had been playing this game for quite a while, and Sebastian himself was not a big fan of chess.

"Another game?" asked Jasper happily.

"Not me, you'd better ask Thaddeus" Sebastian declined as he grabbed the shoulder of his other friend who was standing next to him.

Thaddeus was reading a quiet book when his name was called. When he looked up he saw Jasper looking at him and waiting for him to agree, so he could only agree after sighing.

"You really like to play," Thaddeus told him after giving his token an order.

"Yes, in my house we play it often, and I'm quite good at it" Jasper commented to him as he thought about his next move.

 They both continued with their game as they chatted and Sebastian took the opportunity to relax a bit.

"Hey guys" as the three of them were talking, Lyra arrived at the table.

"Hi..." the three reciprocated their friend's greeting.

Soon Lyra joined the conversation as well, and everything was normal until a topic came up.

"I heard that Harry Potter is coming to Hogwarts next year" Lyra whispered to us, as if it was a big secret or surprise.

"Really?" asked Jasper following up on the topic.

"Yes, plus counting the years should be right" said Lyra.

Sebastian knew that Harry's arrival would be a big event at Hogwarts, but only when he first entered the magical world did he know how much of an impact the fall of Voldemort had. When Voldemort's followers were at the top they committed many atrocities and caused great terror in the magical world, but when Voldemort disappeared they collapsed. Then also came the name Harry Potter, the "boy who lived".

In the magical world there are also several books about the "boy who lived", Sebastian doesn't know who wrote them but they were wrong... Harry was just an ordinary boy, well he was ordinary until the moment he arrived at Hogwarts. After he arrived at Hogwarts he had to follow the path that Dumbledore and the world pushed him to.

So they continued to chat and pass the time until nightfall, when night came they went to the dormitories to sleep.

As he lay there Sebastian couldn't stop thinking about next year, the prophecy said that Harry was the person destined to defeat Voldemort and that he would have a power he didn't have. Harry Potter's arrival also meant that the next few years would be somewhat dangerous, and he had to get stronger faster.

"System collects all the knowledge about the souls of the earth in the last 100 years" then decided to repeat the operation that with the mind but in the soul now.

[Analyzing request...]

[Application accepted... estimated time... 1 year].

"Then I won't be able to use the system for a whole year..." sighed Sebastian.

Sebastian then planned to develop a training method for the soul after 1 year.

*Summer 1991*

Hogwarts was over and the summer vacations had begun, this is the last summer before Hermione goes to school and she was really excited.

Sebastian turned 14 and he had changed quite a bit to when he first went to Hogwarts, he was tall for his age and his body looked strong, with short brown hair and light brown eyes, you could tell he was quite an attractive boy.

"Come on Seb, we have to go shopping for your sister's supplies" his father said to him.

"Alright let's go" the young man replied.

Today was the day they would go shopping for Hermione's wand and robes, she had been waiting for it for 3 long years. Sebastian just hoped that she could be less strict than in the original plot and have a better time.

Arriving in Diagon Alley the Granger family moved with familiarity. They went first to Gringotts as usual then to Madan Malkin's store to buy this year's robes, as for the next stop was in bookstore and finally Ollivanders wand store.

Hermione's wand was a wand made of vine and dragon fiber core. It was characterized by being flexible and good for casting spells.

Another important thing also happened during this year, billionaire Howard Stark and his wife had died in a car accident. Sebastian knew that they had actually died at the hands of Bucky Barnes. Thinking about hydra Sebastian wondered if there were wizards belonging to hydra around the magical world, it would make sense that there would be since their goal was to dominate the world. So it was almost certain that there must be a magical branch of hydra in this world, when Sebastian got his system back he would ask him, if there was then something would have to be done.

*September 1991*

Today was September 1st and it was a day of great importance for the British magical world, today was the start of classes at Hogwarts so many families left early to get to King's Cross Station. Today the entire Granger family had arrived in plenty of time to say goodbye and Hermione was nervous, this was the first time she had been separated from her family for so long and she was only an 11 year old girl.

"There's no need to be so nervous," Sebastian told her.

"You're just saying that because you're used to it" Hermione protested.

"We'll be back for Christmas break, you'll see that time goes by fast" Sebastian continued as he pushed the suitcases.

Sebastian had decided to join Hermione in the train cabin. They were sitting in a cabin when they were interrupted by a knock at the door, it was a boy the same age as his sister.

"Can I sit here?" he asked in a fearful and unsure tone.

"It's okay, there's plenty of room," Sebastian told him as he flashed her a friendly smile. He already had a guess as to who this boy was.

"Thank you, my name is Neville Longbottom" the boy introduced himself.

"Hello, I am Hermione Granger and this is my older brother Sebastian" Hermione takes the floor this time.

Then as the train began to head all the way to Hogsmeade, Hermione began to ask Neville questions.

"So everyone in your family is a wizard" Hermione commented.

"Yes, but until recently everyone thought I was a squib" continued Neville uncertainly.

"Neville, your frog is trying to escape" Sebastian suddenly said to him as he watched a frog pop out of the boy's luggage.

"Ah, not Trevor" Neville hurried to take it in his hands.

"Thanks, Trevor has a habit of escaping" he thanked Sebastian for letting him know.

"It was nothing, but you'd have to watch him more carefully" Sebastian said as he looked at Trevor.

If Sebastian correctly remembered, it was by looking for Trevor that Hermione met Ron Weasley and Harry Potter. After thinking about this, Sebastian felt that he had missed a perfect opportunity to meet Harry.
