Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Harry Potter even though I wish I did. I do own the original characters though and the plot so if you are planning to use them in anyway contact me first.

This is a story that I had just though about and really wanted to get it on here. I do havea few other chapter with me but I am going to keep working on them. Now I'm sorry if I have some spelling mistakes or if I place a comma where I'm not supposed to, but I don't havea beta and i really don't plan to get one, so please bear with me.

I LOVE it when reader send me ideas. Even if you think it is the stupidest thing in the world i always get inspiration from them. Flames are welcome but I do ask that you try not to be to harsh like say that my story sucks and I should quit writing it because I'm embarrassing myself or something like that. I hope you guys like it and I'm always open to suggestions.

Enjoy!


I sighed as I floated in between consciousness and dreaming, feeling completely relaxed, not planning to get up any time soon.

When I thought I was going to slip back asleep I felt a hesitant nudge on my shoulder. I swatted at it but became annoyed as it did it again and again until I begrudgingly opened my eyes.

Squinting against the light I distinctly saw the outline of one of our many house elves, Sparkle. Sparkle had been assigned to me from the day I was born to be my personal nanny whenever my parents were busy.

"Five more minutes, Sparkle." I said closing my eyes again, pulling the covers tight around me.

Once again I felt the nudge as I sighed and opened my eyes, "My deepest apologies, Mistress Guinevere but I was given orders from Mistress Maeve and Master Darius to wake you up now and not take no for an answer so Sparkle must wake Mistress Guinevere up." The house elf said shyly.

I smiled sleepily at my personal and favorite house elf and said, "Thank you, Sparkle." My forehead scrunched in confusion, "But why do my parents want me up early?"

Sparkle's eyes widened and a smile spred on her face. "Don't tell me Mistress Guinevere has forgotten about going to Hogwarts today?"

My eyes snapped fully open at that. Throwing off the silk covers to my four poster bed, while muttering several curse words, I leaned down and hugged Sparkle while saying "Oh my god! I'm going to Hogwarts today!" Kissing Sparkle on the head I ran to my large master bath room and quickly stripped off my clothes and jumped in my large shower.

Scrubbing as fast as I could I lathered on my raspberry shampoo and conditioner with my honey scented body wash. I jumped out of my shower at record speed and threw on a large fluffy towel. Sparkles was outside my door holding a set of Muggle clothes. With a snap of her fingers I was dry. I smiled and ran back into the bathroom and changed into comfortable dark blue skinny jeans and a whit tank top with silver flats. I combed my long silver hair and applied bits of make-up but not a lot.

I stepped back and looked back at my stunning reflection.

It was one of the few times I loved the fact that my family tree had more magical creatures in it, than the forbidden forest. My grandmother being a Veela only made it better.

I stepped outside and smiled at Sparkle.

I bent down and embraced the house-elf in a hug. "I'm really going to miss you Sparkles. Who else is going to make me hot coco when I'm sad or wake me up when I'm being lazy or even help me pick out outfits for parties."

The house elf's eyes immediately started filling with tears, "Mistress Guinevere is so kind and sweet to Sparkle. Not once has mistress Guinevere yelled at Sparkle even when Sparkle deserved it."

I smiled at the house elf and said, "You never deserve to be yelled at. You're the best house elf in the world." I smiled at the house elf and said, "Now if you could please check around the house to see that I haven't forgot anything I would very much appreciate it. And if you could meet me at the front door before you leave I would very much like that to."

Sparkle nodded and disappeared with a small 'pop'.

I left my room which covered most of the 5th floor and raced down the many large and fantastic looking staircases to a very open looking kitchen. House elves were running here and there all preparing breakfast loading them onto silver trays and leading them to the family dining room. Stopping a house elf I asked where my parents were. The house elf responded in a kind old voice and said, "Master Darius and Mistress Maeve are in family dining room waiting for Mistress Guinevere."

I thanked the house elf and quickly ran to the family dining room.

I stepped through the doors to the cozy room as I sat down. The room had a fireplace at the end of it and the walls were covered in paintings of old heads of the family, all of them chatting happily with each other.

My father was laughing as he read the daily prophet clearly making fun of all the rubbish written in it while my mother smiled and hugged me while saying "Morning Eve." My mother being half-Veela was incredibly beautiful. Her silver hair being tied back and in an outfit similar to mine she could have past of as an older sister. But then again being a Veela wasn't always a good thing. If anyone ever took one of us by surprise it could be very bad. My mother and I constantly had to clamp down on our powers or men would be asking us to marry them daily. Even if we fully concentrated it was difficult and often was incredibly uncomfortable, and bits of it usually slipped out. Sometimes it was very tempting to let go of that power just to relax.

My father was equally handsome with the help of his Metamorphmagus skills. My father ran his hands through his now turquoise hair, having it flash different colors with his emotion. I laughed as my father made show of doing this every morning.

Looking at the paper my forehead scrunched. Taking the paper from my dad I read:

PEOPLE GONE MISSING

All across England Witches and Wizards, Muggleborns and Purebloods alike are going missing. Strange happenings are going on at all hours and all towns. The Ministry is baffled as to why this is happening. When rumor had it the famous Harry Potter was one of the missing in question many people became frantic. Hermione Granger a very close friend to Harry Potter and one of the famous trio informed us, "That is insane. Harry is one of the best wizards I know and one of the most guarded. No one could have gotten to him" Upon farther questioning it was found that he and his newlywed wife Ginevra Weaselywere taking a nine month trip around the world, many relaxed. For more information on this please turn to pg.-

My father took the paper, back saying, "I was reading that," In a playful tone.

"You were laughing, not reading." I teased my father.

The house elves streamed into the room placing various dishes in front of us. We all hurried through our breakfast and left the dishes to be washed later.

As we were about to walk out the door Sparkle appeared.

We shared one last hug, her making me promise to owl her if the house elves at Hogwarts weren't feeding me right. I laughed and waved as we climbed into a black Mercedes that was magically enlarged to fit the trunk and all us in the back while the chauffeurdrove.

My parents and I just talked the whole ride to London about anything we could think of. When we finally arrived in King's cross station it was almost 11. We hurried through the station ignoring all the looks people were giving us.

I ran through the barrier to Platform 9 and 3/4 quarters, panting my mother at my side my father appearing only seconds after us.

After catching my breath I gasped at the magnificent sight before me.

The Hogwarts Express in all its shiny red glory was flooded with families of all sizes, shapes and colors. Older students were hugging and meeting up with old friends, while first years were all nervous keeping close to their parents. Many people were pushing past trying to find a spare compartment to load their heavy trunks and familiars.

I faced my mother. I could see small tears in her eyes. My mom leaned down and hugged me, kissing my silver hair identical to her own. Her slightly sharp teeth flashing beautifully in a dazzling smile as she leaned back to look at me.

"God, I can't believe you 11 already, Eve." Her voice sounding sad but proud.

My father came over and said, "Come on May, you saw the signs. When she got out of dippers it must have been pretty obvious she was growing."

We both giggled at that.

"Now you write home every week, you hear? And make sure you eat right and don't stay up to late. And make sure you-"

She was cut off by me launching into her arms.

My father joined in as we all laughed repeating goodbyes, but none of us making any sign of moving or breaking the hug.

The only thing that broke the embrace was the whistle of the Hogwarts express.

"I love you guys." I said in one last embrace.

Braking free I ran up to the train, jumping on the side just as the train started to move. Gripped tight to the train I leaned over the rail and waved.

They waved back.

Neither of us stopped as the train started to pick up speed. Even when I was sure they couldn't see me anymore I kept waving.

As the train started to turn I smiled as King's cross station grew smaller and smaller until it was out of sight.


After staring wistfully out at the land straining my enhanced vision just to get one last glimpse at the station, I opened the door to the train searching for an empty compartment. One was filled with boys, throwing Bertie Bott's Every Flavor beans at one another. Pass. Another compartment was filled with older girls, gossiping from what my enhanced ears could hear. Pass.

"Did you see in the Prophet what they wrote about those people going missing…"

Pass. Pass. Pass.

After going through what must have been at least 20 compartments at the end of the train when all hope seemed lost, I came to the last compartment.

Inside were three boys, two chatting happily while the third was reading a rather thick volume.

These boys were probably the best I was going to get on the train.

`Oh well if they become difficult I can always use the Veela charm on them'

Sliding open the compartment door all chatter stopped and all eyes were on me. I smiled my toothy smile, inherited by my great, great grandma Amelia, a vampire; I let go a small percentage of my Veela charm. The desired affect was immediate.

The two boys talking looked like they were in a daze, drooling over me while the one reading looked slightly more composed but not by much.

'Thank you Grandma Ann…'

"Hi." I said using the full power of my voice. "I was wondering if I could sit in here. All the compartments are full and I need a seat. I promise I won't bother you…" I left the statement hanging faking shyness.

None of them made any movement to acknowledge that I had said anything still lost in the Veela charm.

I eased up on the power looking falsely disappointed and said, "Oh. Well I could always find a different compartment if yo-"

"No!" All three boys practically shouted.

I inwardly smirked. Men were so easy to manipulate.

Faking surprise I sat down and smiled at them batting my eyes a bit for good measure.

All eyes were still on me. The one closest to me, one of the guys who had been talking earlier stretched out his hand, "Hi. I'm Jacob." He said in a rush.

Jacob looked like he was in first year. He had sandy color hair and grey eyes and looked tall and fit for an 11 year old.

I quickly noticed that I hadn't taken down the Veela affects yet and quickly did so. All the boys visibly relaxed.

"Hi Jacob, I'm Guinevere. But that's kind of a mouthful so call me Eve." Taking his hand instead of shacking it he brought it up to his lips and kissed it.

I had to admit I really admired his bravery. Not many guys would try that with a Veela.

Turning to the other two the one talking with Jacob earlier stuck out his hand but this time did not try to kiss it, still under the effects of my natural beauty. "Hi, I'm Niles."

Niles looked like he was 11 too and had rich dark brown hair that reached a little past his shoulders that was tied back with a black piece of cloth, and matching chocolate brown eyes.

The next guy looked somehow older than the others but still 11. He had midnight black hair that was longer than Niles's and vivid green eyes. He was muscled and taller than the rest. All he said was "Zane" and went back to reading a rather think volume.

I glanced at the cover and was shocked.

"Your studding Mermish?" I asked shock evident in my voice.

Zane's eyebrows shot up as he looked over the book. "Yeah…Why do you ask?"

I openly laughed. Seconds later what sounded like grumbling and screeches could be heard coming from my mouth.

Zane's jaw dropped as he stared at me. "No way…You know Mermish?"

I nodded. "My great grandma Lucinda on my mom's side is half Merperson. Since the gene went on through own family, technically, I'm 1/16 Merperson. She's taught me since I was 5."

A smile broke from my face at the loud exclamations from Niles and Jacob.

Zane seemed to be deep in thought. "Lucinda…Wait. You don't mean…What did you say you last name was again?"

The smile slowly slipped from my face as I cursed under my breath. Everyone always seemed to find out to quickly…

"I didn't. It's Ellis."

All three boys looked more shocked than when I came in here.

Niles the first one to break the silence said, "So…If you're an Ellis that means-"

"That I'm one of the biggest half breeds alive? Yeah."

I sighed and leaned back in my sighing. Everyone always though they were so dam better just because their blood is purer. What does that even mean? I could do what full grown wizards couldn't when I was 3 and yet they treat me like vermin for being born the way I was.

"That's pretty dam awesome." Niles said awe clear in his voice.

My eyes widened as I looked for any sigh of rejection in his face. I found none. I felt relief practically pour out of me. I got up not caring and threw my arms around Niles. He was shocked to say the least. When he finally recovered his senses he blushed a bit and wrapped his arms around me to. Giving him a small kiss on the cheek I let go and sat back in my seat.

"Thanks Niles. You have no idea how much that means to me."

Niles just scrunched his forehead in confusion and said, "I'm sorry but did I miss something important?"

I giggled and said, "You have no idea how many times I've been rejected because of what I am. I'm the biggest Half-breed in the history of the world. I'm placed even lower than the muggle-borns because I'm not even completely a witch."

All the boys looked understanding as Jacob threw a comforting arm around me and said, "Well you don't have to worry about us. Zane's the only pureblood here and he's not going to judge you for being born the way you are. Plus Niles is right. That is pretty dam awesome." I laughed and kissed Jacob on the cheek whispering a small "Thanks"

Any awkwardness that was there from bringing up my name was completely broken when the witch pushing a trolley full of sweets came by and asked if we would like any. After buying half the cart we all dug in and for an hour just relaxed in simple conversation about Hogwarts.

I pulled out my wand and started playing with it. My grandpa Dean on my father's side was a wand maker. Not as big as Olivander's though. He made custom wands so they worked better than the ones that would choose you at Olivander's. When I got accepted into Hogwarts my family was so proud that everyone gathered together and gave a hair to my grandpa to make my very own wand. I looked at my wand with pride. Elder, Eleven inches, Unicorn hair, Phoenix feather, Veela hair, Vampire Hair, Elf Hair, Merperson Hair, and so many others.

While chewing on some Chocolate frogs and twirling my wand, Jacob asked, "So Eve. Do you mind if I ask what exactly you are?"

Swallowing the Cockroach Cluster I nodded and said sure, "As I've already said I'm 1/16 Merperson, 1/16 Werewolf, 1/4 Vampire, 1/4 Veela, 1/4 Elf," I said wiggling my slightly pointed ears, "3/64 Giant, don't ask me how we got that but I am part giant, but they think that the only thing passed down to me from them was the immunity to a stunner. I don't know about several stunners, I haven't tried. I'm 1/64 Goblin, I'm a Metamorphmagus, even though I don't use my powers as much as my dad. I'm a Seer, which means I can sometimes see what happens in the future. Maybe once or twice a week. I am a Parselmouth, which means I can talk to snakes, I can fly without aide of a broomstick, and I'm a Full elemental which means I can control all the elements and…Oh yeah."

I tapped the base of my throat three times when a gold chain appeared. I pick it up and hanging from the gold chain was a beautiful medallion with many runes engraved in it.

"This necklace has been passed down on my dad's side of the family. It gives the user the power to talk to animals, both magical and non-magical."

I slipped the necklace back under my shirt and tapped my neck three times and watched as the necklace melted back into my skin.

Then I remembered something important. Even though my parents love me they had to admit I could be dangerous to other students at Hogwarts.

"And also there's a few things I need to say first about safety and stuff if you actually are serious about being around me." Zane raised his eyebrows in a rather sarcastic matter and said, "Safety?"

Making a face I started counting off my fingers and said,"Well Number 1: Stay away from me on full moons. I may not have enough werewolf in me to transform but with the help of the vampire I get pretty blood thirsty. Number 2: Please, Please, Please, try not to cut yourself. Since how young I am compared to other vampires I have a slight control problem. Number 3: Since I am part Veela, I have a control problem with my powers. So whatever you do, don't sneak up on me." I finished with a grimace.

All the boys just shrugged.

I smiled. Only pre-teen boys would meet some random, very dangerous girl, who could very likely hurt them without her knowing, and not care in the slightest.

This was going to be a good year.


After talking and getting to know all the guys for a few hours, it turns out they are all really good guys. They had all met at one point or another and had been friends since. Even though Zane was quiet, sneaking out a bit of the Veela charm always got a few sentences from him.

I did catch the boys more than once, starring at me but it was fun watching them blush.

I demonstrated most of my powers, changing the color of my eyes, floating a few feet off the ground, with the help of some white smoke floating beneath me, creating different elements out of nothing. Right when I was hypnotizing the boys with a few notes was when a prefret came by our compartment. He slid open the compartment door and his ears were immediately assaulted with the sound, becoming hypnotized along with the boys. With the door open others heard the notes to and came. I was unaware of this as my back was to the door, me facing the boys.

Soon quite a few boys and girls had gathered outside to listen. It wasn't until a girl tapped me on the shoulder did I realize they were there. She had a shiny silver badge with an "H" on it. The second I stopped singing all the boys snapped out of their trance.

"I'm so sorry. I didn't realize others had heard." I said quickly using my Metamorphmagus skills to cover my blush.

The girl in the "H" badge looked confused and said, "That's alright sweetie. We just came by to say that we'll be at Hogwarts soon and to get dressed in your school robes." She quickly closed the door and shooed away all the boys.

I turned back to the boys biting my lip. I mumbled out a "Sorry."

As Zane so often did, he was the first one to catch on, "What was it we all felt while you were singing? You were using your 'Veela Charm' right?"

"Not really. That was the smallest amount possible I could use without losing control of my power. And even than that wasn't very much."

I looked down completely concentrating on not blushing.

Jacob scratched the back of his head. Niles looked down blushing. What made it worse was Zane didn't look like anything happened. He just smirked.

`Dear God, please get us off this subject'

And like the answer to my prayers, like she always was, flames went up on my shoulder and a seconds later a beautiful blue, silver and gold phoenix appeared perched on my shoulder, lightly sticking it's talons for grip, but never hurting me. Even though she was the size of a swan she managed to fit perfectly on my shoulder.

I smiled at my familiar as it trilled happily nipping my ear in affection.

"How you doing Rain?" I said reaching to kiss the top of her head, and smiling and her.

Jacob and Niles welcoming the distraction with open arms, asked every type of question about Rain until I left to go change.

Smiling at the phoenix still perched on my shoulder I entered the bathroom and dressed in my school robes taking off the Muggle ones from the morning. As I headed back to the compartment I got several looks from different people. Some of awe, some of fear, and some of…jealousy? I couldn't tell.

I trilled to Rain and thanked her for breaking the silence. She nodded and flamed back to her cage.

I walked through the door and sat next to Jacob, now dressed in school robes. Niles was looking outside the window across from Jacob, and Zane was reading across from me.

We all talk in simple conversation until we felt the train slowing. All of us rushing to the window got a good glance at Hogesmade station. "Wow" was pretty much all we could say.

All four of us hurried to get off the train first. Now being related to several very graceful magical creatures I don't trip. Ever. But in my extreme excitement to get off the train, I failed to notice the Pipe sticking off from a part off the train.

Not having enough time to react I could only put my hands out to brake the fall. Closing my eyes I waited for the fall…When it never came.

Instead of the hard platform I expected I was met with strong arms. Opening my eyes I smiled brightly at the sight before me. Zane had dropped his books in time to catch me. He pulled me up and steadied me, then picking up his books. Jumping down he offered his hand and smirked.

Covering my blush I took his hand and jumped down. We then heard a loud, gruff voice "Firs' Years'. Firs' years over here."

A huge man stood in front of us, in a large brown mole-skin coat that looked to be made of only pockets. I marveled at the size of the man. He was even bigger than my great, great grandpa Tobias, and he was 1/4 Giant.

Following the rest of the first years we all walked through a path between trees. For a few minutes it was nothing but silence as we all practically bounced up and down with excitement. Jacob, Niles and Zane all stuck close to me which I was glad for.

Jacob had thrown an arm over my shoulder while Zane was on my other side and Niles next to him. Zane was smirking at me every time he got the chance while I willed myself to cover my blush. When I finally though he had gotten cocky enough I put on a little 'Veela charm.' Not enough to make him drool but enough to make him stumble a bit.

Zane getting my point grabbed my hand and gave it a comforting squeeze. I eased up on the charm. I smiled at him when he didn't let go.

Walking out from a wall of trees we all gasped at the beautiful sight before us. A large castle in all its glory shined as it sat like it had for centuries above them all. A large black lake looked like glass as they approached, not a ripple in the water.

"Only four' to a boat." The large man said climbing in a boat all for himself.

We all climbed in the small wooden boat. Zane next to me and Niles and Jacob in front. When everyone was seated they boat started to move. I leaned over the side of the boat. To the human eye it would appear that nothing was in the lake. They were wrong of course. With my eyes I could see everything. My eyes as a vampire easily let me see in the dark, and my eyes as a merperson let me see through water. That plus the enhanced werewolf and elf eyesight and I could see everything. Merpeople were swimming unusually close to the surface trying to get sight of the new first years. Tentacles of the giant squid could be seen in all directions of the pond.

The boys gave me a questioning look, but I just smiled. I opened my mouth and began to sing in Mermish. My great grandma Lucinda (1/2 Merperson) and my grandma Ann (Veela) found out that if they sung together they could coax the mermaids to come out. Since I am 1/16 Merperson and 1/4 Veela they believed that I would be able to do this all on my own.

As my notes became sweeter and more comforting one of the braver Merpeople came above the surface. A few girls jumped in jump in surprise. I hissed at them daring any of them to scream. They didn't.

I turned my face back to the surface of the water to see two more rise up. Two were girls and one was a man all looking around a few year older than me.

I smiled. In Mermish I said "Hello."

The man or boy I should say said, "Hello. May I ask how you are able to speak with us? No one other than an old head master has ever truly been able to properly speak with us and even then his voice lacks right sounds."

"I am a descendant of one of your people. I assume the headmaster was not able to get the sounds right because he is not one of you?"

"That is probably true. What is your name child?"

"My name is Eve. May I ask yours?"

"My name is Ari." By now the two girls had sunk back down again and we had reached the other side of the lake.

"Well it was wonderful meeting you Ari. I hope we can speak again soon." I said stepping out of the boat.

"Of course. We always welcome our own. Go to the edge of the lake and call. I will try my best to come." With that said Ari slid back under the water like he never came. Zane, Jacob and Niles followed me out of the boat.

"What was that about?" Niles said squinting at the water.

"I'll tell you later," as I said it, the giant man raised his huge hand and knocked on a large door.

No more than a minute later the door opened to reveal a man. Looking around 25 the man had dark hair and eyes, with a kind, round face. Smiling at the large man he said "Thanks Hagrid. I'll take it from here."

"Welcome, Professor Longbottom. I'll just be heading up now." Hagrid said sliding past him.

When Hagrid was gone the professor turned to us and said, "Welcome to Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry. Tonight what will happen is we will walk through those doors to the Great hall and you will be sorted in to one of the four houses. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. During your years here at Hogwarts your house will be like your family. Your accomplishments will earn you house points, while your failures will lose you points. At the end of the school year the house with the most points will win the house cup. Alright then, Let's go."

Opening the doors he led us in until we can to even larger wooden doors. Not pausing he threw open the doors and lead us inside.

The Great Hall was magnificent. The enchanted ceiling looked exactly like the night sky. The candles were bright and mysterious as they floated above our heads. Four tables sat, all with different colors.

Walking in between two tables Professor Longbottom brought out a stool and a very ragged, dirty hat.

For a few moments the hat did absolutely nothing. Then a rip appeared near the brim and grew larger…and the hat began to sing.

(A/n: I suck at poetry. I really do. So sorry but I'm just going to use the song from PS.)

Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can top them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a steady mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!

Cheers erupted from all around the Great hall. Professor Longbottom then pulled out a long scroll. "Now when I call your name please step forward. Abbot, Carrie."

A shy looking girl rushed forward and sat on the stool and placed the hat over her head. The hat covered her eyes. For a few moments nothing happened. Then in a bellowing voice the hat said, "HUFFLEPUFF!"

A table with people dressed in yellow went up in cheers. Carrie blushed, scarlet and hurriedly took off the hat and ran to the table.

This repeated for a few people until I head, "Ellis, Guinevere"

Whispers broke out. Jacob smiled, while Zane gave my hand a comforting squeeze. Niles gave me a small push forward. I walked up the steps with my head held high ignoring all the whispers and stares.

Sitting down on the stool, Professor Longbottom placed the hat on my head. It covered my eyes and ears as a strange voice started to speak.

"My, my, what do we have here? An Ellis…You should be very proud dear…Not many people in your family are accepted into Hogwarts. Now let's see…There's talent, quite a lot of talent to say the least. And very much a lot of power, yes all your family has a lot of power…Ah we have a great brain here perfect for Ravenclaw…But a heart very loyal and true, got to be Hufflepuff…Ah but look at this…So very cunning…You'd be perfect for Slytherien…Yes you would…But alas…No. You would not be happy there. What I see here instead is bravery. You would do anything to protect the ones you love no matter what it costs you…Yes it has to be GRYFFINDOR"

Cheers and shouts erupted from the table dressed in red. Before taking of the hat I muttered a quick "Thanks" in my mind. I swear I heard faint chuckled as I pulled the hat away and sat it down on the stool. Turning away I calmly walked to the Gryffindor table and sat next to a staring forth year.

Early on Jacob and Niles both got sorted in to Gryffindor with me. Then there was just one left.

"West, Zane"

Zane calmly walked up to the stool and allowed for the hat to be placed on his head. Niles, Jacob and I all had our fingers crossed on the table. A variety of emotions placed across Zane's face (For he was actually tall enough so the hat didn't slip over his eyes) but it was obvious that he was clearly uncomfortable. Straining my powers I tried to send a small amount of charm to him to make him relax. Zane looked over at me and briefly before becoming a little uncomfortable again. I strained to send him a little more power, but only seconds later the hat shouted, "GRYFFINDOR."

All three of us jumped up and cheered louder than anyone, with the rest of the Gryffindors, as Zane quickly but calmly came to sit next to us. Niles and Jacob both gave him a slap on the back while I gave him a quick hug.

We all sat down as a strict looking woman stood up from the center of the table. In a loud clear voice she said, "Excellent! Now that we are all sorted I would like to make a few announcements. First, the Forest around the grounds is forbidden to all first year students and it would do for the older students to remember that as well. Second, our caretaker Mr. Filch has banned several new items that can be found on the list nailed to his office door. Now since that has all been said and done I only have one thing to say. Tuck in!" In seconds the entire table was heaved down with magnificent foods of all sorts.

Helping ourselves we all shoveled food into our mouths like there was no tomorrow, myself included. I never was one for table manners.

After stuffing ourselves full, the headmistress released us to our common rooms. With the Prefects leading in front we all began our long journey to the Gryffindortower. Stopping outside a portrait with a very fat lady in it the prefect said, "Phoenix" the portrait swung open and appeared a hole. The prefect climbed through the hole as the rest of us followed. Inside was a magnificent common room.

The fire was blazing making the room very warm and cozy. The couches and armchair looked very comfortable and there were many tables to study. After the prefect directed us to our rooms I hugged all the guys' goodnight.

Walking up the stairs I quickly found my room. Inside were five four-poster beds. Four other girls were already in there whispering.

"Don't worry. Hogwarts in one of the safest places in all of Europe. Whoever is taking people can't get to us here."

I knocked on the door and smiled at the girls alerting them to my presence. Only one girl smiled, while the other ignored me.

I walked over to my bed and picked up my pj's. As I was heading for the bathroom I stopped. A few weeks before I left, Sparkle had been teaching me some wandless magic. Apparently I was gifted in it. And for once it wasn't something I had inherited from my family. I snapped my fingers and was immediately dressed in a long T-shirt and loose sweats.

The girl who smiled said, "That's so cool. How'd you do it?"

I smiled and said, "My house-elf Sparkle taught me. Apparently I'm gifted in wandless magic along with me being part elf. Since elves are related to house-elves I can do some of their magic."

"Well I have to say that's really impressive. I'm Cat by the way." Sticking out her hand I shook it. "Nice to meet you Cat. I'm Guinevere but call me Eve."

"Hey is it true you're a Metamorphmagus?" she said looking genuinely interested not at all insulting.

I smirked. In seconds my hair was in loose blond ringlets that were resting on my shoulders. I had shrunk a few inches and my eyes were now a chocolate brown. A mirror image of Cat.

"You tell me." I said in a voice identical to her own. I laughed at her expression, while switching back to my long silver hair and ice blue eyes.

"That's so amazing. You were the one singing on the train right?" She said

"Yeah that was me. I really didn't mean for everyone to hear through." Looking around most of the other girls had focused their attention on the conversation.

"Well you sing beautifully." Looking at me she said, "So this is your true form right?"

"Sort of. I change few things like eye color and stuff though my hair really is silver. My parents don't really want me to shift a lot though they do let me; I mean they never outright tell me not to shift. They want me to feel comfortable with who I am even though my dad changes his hair color every minute. But I guess I have to understand about that since my mom is half-Veela that he wants to keep his looks for her."

A girl snorted. I turned to look at her my eyebrows raised.

She snickered, "Please. You're a Metamorphmagus, part-Veela, part elf, and witch? For all we know you could have just transfigured yourself. If any of those things are true I'll eat my foot."

My eyes flashed a dangerous red as I felt steam come from my clenched hands. Calming down I said, "Wow. Incredible. I'm sorry it's just I've never seen a hog speak before."

The girls mouth dropped open, "Now listen—"

"No you listen you little dimwit. I've taken crap like this from people like you since I was born. And your hell wrong if you think I'm above using my powers against those who insult me." Opening my hands, small flames shot out of them. "So unless you'd like to keep your eye brows and the birds nest you call hair, you won't push me." Closing my hands the flames immediately went out leaving only smoke.

Shocked the girl glared at me and stormed out of the room.

Silence filled the room. I turned back to Cat expecting her to be scared or mad. But instead she was…impressed.

"Oh thank you god, you got rid of Giselle. I mean I'd thought she'd never shut up. She's this know it all Muggle-born whose known she was a witch for about five minutes and now she thinks she knows everything about the wizard world."

I smiled. The other girls around the room smiled to, but still kept their distance.

Freezing for a second, different images flashed before my eyes. I inwardly groaned. What felt like hours but had only been seconds I snapped out of my vision. My forehead scrunched in concentration.

I then got an idea.

"Come here." Pulling Cat over to my bed we sat down.

"Gold, Silver, or Diamond?"

"Diamond. But w-"

"What's your Birthstone?"

"Topaz. Why-"

"Necklace, bracelet or ring,"

"Necklace. Let me fin-"

Putting up my hand for silence I raised my hand, palm side up. A diamond the size of a softball materialized and started floating above my hand. Small parts of the diamond broke off and started linking with one another. This continued at a fast speed until a long chain of diamonds was made. I set aside the chain and materialized a ball of topaz. Cutting it precisely in the shaped of a teardrop, at least two inches long, I cut the right rune in it. Taking it in my hand I stored some energy in it. Taking out my wand I mumbled the appropriate charms. The gem glowed white for a few seconds before I slipped it onto the chain.

Handing it to Cat I said, "I had a vision. Giselle is going to try to get back at me tomorrow and maybe you to. This should be able to throw off any curse she throws at you. Except of course the Unforgivables and several dark curses, but I really doubt she'll use those.

Staring at the beautiful necklace she said, "Thank you. For the necklace and the warning. How on earth did you make it?"

"A family secret of my Dad's. My grandma Bella was an Elemental and magnificent at creating new spells. She was famous for creating magical jewelry and got quite rich off of it. This method has been used a lot in my family since. I put an Anti-theft spell on it and a Find-me charm. So if you ever lose it, just imagine having it and you will."

Confusion past over her features for a second, "Wait, those are really high level spells. How did you learn them?"

"Since most of my family aren't really considered wizard or witch enough to go to Hogwarts, they can't be held against the underage magic laws that apply only to wizards/witches. Up until a few weeks ago I wasn't considered a witch. Because of that I was allowed to practice magic since a young age."

Cat smiled sadly. "Well at least you got training before us. I'm jealous to tell you the truth. I can barely cast a simple levitating charm while you're on fifth year charms."

I smiled "Don't worry. I'm sure you'll do great."

After talking to Cat for about an hour she yawned. I said good night as she closed the curtains to her bed. Checking to make sure no one was looking I pulled out an old wooded box from one of the compartments in my trunk and crawled in my bed. Closing my curtains I lifted the lid to the box and was met with six journals, each a different color with a different symbol on each. I smiled at the family heirlooms. My great, great grandpa Grey on my father side traveled around the world finding magical artifacts. Many times he's been called a Treasure hunter. I laugh every time I hear him say it. These were among his best. The personal diaries of the founders, including a journal with detailed instruction on every storage room, classroom, and secret passage way in the school . This journals was also self-updating all the time adding new information. It even showed the current passwords for the other common rooms. It was a gift from him when I got accepted. He was an Elf so he didn't go to Hogwarts and through about possibly selling them but decided against it thinking I would like them better, and maybe I could get into some fun with them. and Among these were my personal diary, which I quickly wrote down the details of my day.

I read for a few hours from Gryffindor's journal. The journals were charmed to never run out of space so it looked a lot thinner that it really was.

After growing tired I "Nox" my wand, put away the journals.

Lying down I closed my eyes, thinking through all the amazing events that had happened and fell into a carefree peaceful sleep.
