Harry Potter and the Mysterious New Magic
A/N: Hi, I changed my mind about "retiring" b/c I
realized that I write these things b/c I want to and not b/c I want to be noticed. But
hey, I'm sorta used to it. Well, it's almost exactly the same, only a few
changes like spelling and a few scenes are longer. Plus, I made it so that Madeline still
rarely talks.
Disclaimer: I only own a few things, you can probably notice
them. The ones that you do recognize belong to Joanne Kathleen Rowling.
Chapter 1: Back at the Dursleys's
Harry was back at the Dursleys's house for another horrible
summer. He had just ended a dreadful year at Hogwarts. One of his schoolmates named Cedric
Diggory was killed at the hand of Voldemort. Just then there was a knock on his door. It
was his Uncle Vernon.
"We're taking you to Mrs. Figg's house now." he
grunted.
"Fine," Harry replied. The Dursleys' were going up
to Smeltings for a meeting with Dudley's Headmaster.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
As Harry entered the cabbage smelling house, he saw that Mrs.
Figg was sitting in front of the telly in a full body cast. He had heard that Dudley
accidentally fell and sat on Mrs. Figg while he was playing with Piers.( A/N Couldn't
think of a way for her to be in a cast!! Sorry!!)
"Get over here and help me up ya little rodent!!!"
Ms. Figg yelled.
Harry helped her up and guided her to the bedroom, where she
tried to sleep peacefully. Harry ran downstairs to go and look for something to do. Before
he could start, he heard Mrs. Figg calling him.
"Get me a glass of water!!"
He obediently did so and she spit it out.
"I want warm water!!"
He reluctantly got another glass of water, warm this time.
She then fell asleep again. Harry ran downstairs to where he was attacked by one of her
many cats.
As Harry finally got the little furball off of him, Mrs. Figg
was once again calling him.
"I need help to go to the bathroom!!!"
That was the last straw. Harry leapt up and ran toward the
door. Once he arrived at the Dursley's house, he snuck into his room, gathered up his
belongings and brought them outside. He took out his wand and summoned the Knight Bus.
Chapter 2: Return of the Knight Bus
Harry saw a large bus charging toward him at a great speed,
but suddenly stopped right in front of him.
"Welcome to the Knight Bus," he was greeted by
Stan," Oh! Welcome back Neville."
Harry grunted, stuffed the money into Stan's hands and
boarded the bus. Though he was not the only one there. There was girl who he supposed was
Asian with short dark hair and dark eyes which reminded him much of Cho except Cho was
much more prettier. She was seated in the very back of the bus.
"Hello." Harry greeted her. She didn't answer him.
She was curled up, drawing something on a piece of parchment and looking outside. He
looked at where she was looking at.
She was looking at a fairly comfortable looking house. The
windows were slightly parted and you could see the very loving family inside having
dinner.
"What are you doing?" he asked curiously. She again
didn't reply. He was then pulled aside by Stan.
(A/N: I know, sorry, too many A/Ns but I don't really
remember if Stan had an accent, so I'm not going to try and do his accent. Same thing with
Hagrid)
"I wouldn't try and make friends with her" Stan
nodded toward the girl, "she hasn't said anything since Dumbledore put her on this
bus."
Harry pondered about this. 'Why would Dumbledore put her on
this bus?' he asked himself, though he only had a moment to do so because something jumped
on his head. It was long and furry. Harry yelped. The girl saw him and wrapped her slender
fingers around the attacker, pulled him back and set him down to her bed. He recognized
the creature from the telly. It was a muggle animal called a ferret. He then noticed that
the ferret was not alone. There was a fairly large gold colored eagle owl and a black cat.
For the rest of the bus ride, Harry didn't say anything more
to the mysterious girl. He decided to take a little nap. When he awoke he arrived at the
Leaky Cauldron. The girl had already left along with her animals. When he departed the bus
he was once again met by Cornielius Fudge.
"Ah, hello Harry." he greeted, "I'm surprised
to see you here; I hope you enjoyed your ride?" Harry nodded. "Good then, Tom
will lead you up to your room and I hope you will find it comfortable. Please stay out of
trouble." Harry thought he heard a slight tremble in that last comment, but he
shrugged it off and headed toward Tom the bartender. He noticed that the Minister was
heading toward another room in the Leaky Cauldron.
He decided to write to Ron, Hermione and Siruis telling them
that he had left the Dursley's and was in Diagon Alley.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Many weeks passed and Harry got very bored. He had finished
all of his essays and already had all of his supplies. Till one day he saw Ron and
Hermione together at Flourish and Blotts. But that wasn't the weird part. They were across
the room from each other. Seeing the tension between the two, and yet not knowing why,(A/N
Little dense ain't he? ) he waved at the two of them and signaled them to come over.
"Hi Harry. How was your summer?" Hermione asked as
she hugged him.
"Okay," he replied. "How was yours?"
Ron grunted.
"Well, I went over to Viktor's house for a while, but
we've decided to just be friends because of our age difference." Hermione said.
Ron stifled a smile.
"Hey Harry, why don't we go back to the Leaky Cauldron,
I'm sure Ginny would be happy to see you," Ron said.
Harry blushed.
As they headed back to the Leaky Cauldron, they didn't notice
a figure standing there in the shadows watching.
Chapter 3: Ron and Hermione
The rest of summer break passed quickly for Harry and his two
best friends. Then came the day that they had to come back to school. September 1st.
"Is everybody ready?" asked Mr. Weasley.
Everybody nodded. Fred and George grinned heavily. Mrs.
Weasley took them aside for their yearly warnings.
After Mrs. Weasley kissed her kids goodbye, Ginny went to
look for her friends and Ron and Hermione had a surprise for Harry.
"Ugh......Harry?" asked Ron.
"Yeah Ron?"
"Hermione and I were chosen as prefects, we have to sit
in the prefects' compartment." he said as they entered Platform 9 and 3/4.
"WHAT?" he bellowed.
"We didn't tell you because we thought that it might
make you a bit left out or something." Hermione quickly said.
To their surprise, Harry didn't blow his top off; he instead,
chuckled.
"You didn't have to do that! I mean I'm happy for the
both of you. You both deserve it after all this time, right?" Harry asked them.
Surprised by Harry's last comments, Ron and Hermione just
stared open mouthed at him.
"You guys go ahead, I'm gonna go and look for an empty
compartment." Harry left.
When Harry looked through every compartment, he ended up at
the last one, which luckily only had one person in it. He then recognized her. It was the
girl from the Knight Bus. She wasn't looking at him. She was looking out the window and
drawing, just like she did in the Knight Bus. Harry looked at what she was looking at. She
was looking at the Weasley family, having a family hug.
He dragged his trunk in and put it up, hoping that she
wouldn't mind.
Just then, the compartment door opened. Harry gasped at who
he saw.
Chapter 4: Moony Returns (A/N: WHOO HOO!!)
"Hello Harry, happy to see me?" Professor Lupin
asked after putting up his trunk too.
Harry, still appalled, nodded his head. Professor Lupin
walked passed him and started to whisper to the girl who Harry saw on the Knight Bus. He
only heard parts of the one sided conversation.
" - should eat something-"
" - - - - - - - - "
" - sad after the incident-"
"- - - - - - - - - - "
" - don't worry-"
" - - - - - - - - - - - - - "
Professor Lupin stood up and left the compartment. Harry saw
that the girl still had her animals. They were all sleeping. As Harry watched closely, he
realized that she was a bit skinnier than the last time he saw her, and had many more dark
lines under her eyes.
Then, the compartment door opened again revealing Ron and
Hermione.
"What are you doing here?" asked Harry.
"We decided to stay with you until we get to Hogwarts. I
mean it's not that they really care now do they?" said Ron.
"Well, well, well, what do we have here? A mudblood, a
bum, and a scarhead?" said a voice. (A/N: I suck at insults, but I'm better at
comebacks)
Harry, Ron and Hermione turned their heads to meet the one
and only Malfoy accompanied with Goyle and Crabbe.
"Oh, so they now have a new one in their little group,
where'd she come from ? The-".
They never found out where he thought she came from because
an owl started to peck at Malfoy's head, while the cat was scratching every inch of Goyle
and the ferret was running around and tickling Crabbe. The three of them ran out of the
compartment yelling.
*~*~*~*~*~*~
Professor Lupin came back into the compartment with his hands
full with Chocolate Frogs and Pumpkin Patsies.
"Oh, hello Ron. Hermione." Professor Lupin
addressed them.
"Hello Professor." they said in unison.
Professor Lupin walked over to where the Asian girl was and
tried to persuade her to eat a Chocolate Frog, but failed. He sighed and just left her
alone. He started to make conversation with Harry.
"So, have you spoken with Sirius lately?" asked
Professor Lupin.
"Not since he left to go gather up some people,"
answered Harry.
"Oh." They all sat in silence for a few minutes
until Ron brought up Quidditch and who was going to be the new Keeper and Team Captain.
"I bet Harry's gonna be the new Team Captain," said
Ron.
Harry blushed.
"I hope Ron gets on the team. You are trying out aren't
you?"
"Of course! Are you crazy or something?" cried Ron.
"Hey we're almost there!" Hermione exclaimed.
Indeed they were. They could see the large Hogwarts castle
growing larger and larger. A few moments passed and the train stopped at the Hogsmeade
station. As they were leaving the train, Harry noticed the Asian girl pick up her gigantic
trunk that was twice the size of Harry's.
"You don't have to bring your trunk. They send it to
your dormitory." Harry explained, but she ignored his remark and passed by. Harry was
suprised that she could even lift it for her petite size. Professor Lupin said his
goodbyes and escorted the new girl toward the castle while the others entered the
carriages.
"Who was that?" asked Hermione.
"I don't know" Harry replied, " but I saw her
on the Knight Bus, too. She's a bit strange. Always drawing or something and never
says a word." Harry didn't mention her staring at Ron's family.
They sat in silence as they headed toward the castle.
Chapter 5: Names
They reached the castle and sat down. Harry wondered where
the new girl went. She hasn't been sorted yet, but she probably didn't go with the first
years.
The first years came in abruptly, interrupting his thoughts.
He watched as the Sorting Hat sung its new song and started to sort out the first years.
When they finished sorting the last first year, Professor Dumbledore began speaking.
"We have a new student with us who transferred here from
Stonewall Academy in America. She is a 5th year and will be sorted; however, she will not
be staying in the same dormitories or common room as her house."
"Chan, Madeline" called out Professor McGonagall.
The Asian girl emerged behind Professor Dumbledore and put on
the Sorting Hat. After what seemed forever, she was sorted into....
" -GRYFFINDOR!!"
