Oh, how Alana hated her. Yes, hate is a strong word, but its true. Professor Clarissa Simone was evil. Downright evil.

Most everyone hated her. Especially Alana. All she had done was raise her hand to ask a question and she'd started shouting, in front of the whole class, that she was an idiot and it was no wonder she wasn't in Ravenclaw.

But no, what was really bothering Alana was that she in Gryffindor. So, where was that Gryffindor bravery that allowed her to shout back that she was glad she wasn't in Ravenclaw, because she was the head of house.

So, it was all because of her that Alana was sitting on the top of the astronomy tower on the first day back to school. Her bright green eyes surveyed the sky but all they came upon was the first star coming out. It was an old muggle child's rhyme that she had done when she was a kid before she knew she was a witch, but why not? She closed her eyes and started the rhyme.

Star light, Star bright

First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might

Have the wish I wish tonight

"I wish there was someway to drive that evil professor out of Hogwarts."

Then the earth started shaking causing Alana's eyes to pop open.

What was going on. There was no screaming, no lights it was like she was the only one who could feel it.

There was a blinding flash of red light, and suddenly the shaking stopped.

Alana wasn't alone on the top of the astronomy tower anymore.
