We're All Just Trying Our Best

Summary:

Madison McKinnon had given everything during the Wizarding war in order to defeat Voldemort, but in the end, she received very little back. 12 years after Voldemort's downfall, and the last time Madison had interacted with the wizarding world, she gets a visit from her old headmaster, a man she has spent a long time trying to forget, informing her that Sirius Black a former friend of hers has escaped Azkaban and asks her to once again use her abilities, and talent as a spy to track him down and keep an eye on him. It was a simple enough task to start with but soon more questions start to arise and her past which she has so desperately tried to leave behind starts to catch up with her.

Notes:

This is my first fic I have published so please give any advice or critiques you have and hopefully you will enjoy the weird stuff my brain comes up with

Chapter 1: Context to the story

Summary:

Context about what this story will be able and the changes that have been made to cannon

Notes:

This is just a little piece of context before properly getting into the story - doesn't involve any spoiler or anything but feel free to skip if you simply won't to go in blind and see if I'm a capable enough writer that you could figure it out anyway.
Also this is my first time publishing a fic so let my know anything I can improve on as I'd love your advice and critiques. I also don't have a beta reader since this is just something I thought I would test out - if it goes well I will get one but for now let me know of any mistakes.

Chapter Text

Hello,
Just wanted to introduce you briefly to my story before getting into the chapters.
So my oc is Madison McKinnon, twin sister of Marlene and was a slytherin in the same year as Snape and the Marauders.
This work will switch between what is happening ‘currently’ starting at the beginning of Prisoner of Azkaban in 1993 and what happened during Madison’s and her friends' years at Hogwarts onward starting in 1973, which was her third year. There will also be flashbacks from prior to 1993 but they will be different from the separate storylines if that makes any sense.
Spoiler free cannon changes include; Regulus Black was only 9 months younger than Sirius and was in the same school year as him. Madison was the head girl not Lily. Lily and Mary were both gay and were together, James and Lily got married as a cover for both their relationships. Plus Madison's entire storyline is obviously. I think that’s all - I’ll update if I change anything else
Anyway fuck JK and enjoy the story.
