Ruby and Jade

Two identical teenage girls stood apart from each other as if a mirror reflected each other's petite frames perfectly. One vanished while the other remains still in the warm sunlight, not looking surprised at all. Closing her eyes, the visible twin maintained a peaceful aura. Then, she too vanished into the lighting-quick battle with her sister. Hexes and curses clashed in vivid swirls of crimson red and neon green. Earthquakes rumbled louder and louder, warning nearby inhabitants of a duel consisted of powerful, ancient spells unknown to the rest of the wizarding world.

"Misses! It's time to go!" shouted a small, elderly house elf that approached the magical battle. Yells of frustration following yells of triumph continued. The old house elf shouted again with a force 50 times stronger. "IT'S TIME TO GO! – NOW!" The two girls stopped fighting. "She's worse than a Howler, isn't she, Jade?" complained one girl. "You're worse, Ruby," teased Jade. Ruby glared with mock anger at her sister. "We better hurry to the Imperial Limo. Father must be getting impatient, waiting for us."

A middle-aged man named Xu Zhang paced rapidly beside a very large vehicle. Stretching over 100 ft., the Imperial Limo was made to look like a dragon. Scales covered the outside and glaring eyes stared from the front. The man did not appear to notice the limo, his numerous buildings, or the grand pond that the buildings surrounded. His worried eyes darted randomly until they rested with relief on his two daughters. "We'll miss you, Father," the twins chorused. "Aren't you glad we're not late?" they grinned.

Their father frowned with concern. "This is a very serious," he began to lecture, "You're on a dangerous mission. This will be the 1st time you girls are out on your own, not to mention as far away as Hogwarts." Jade rolled her eyes. "Relax, Father. Albus Dumbledore is supposed to be very powerful. He'll protect us. Besides, we can blast whoever threatens us into oblivion," She grinned evilly. Their father sighed. "Albus is a close friend of mine and he's the only reason I'm letting you two go alone. Still, I want you girls to stay out of trouble and take care of your cousin, Cho." He glared at them. "One complaint from her and you're coming back!"

Both Ruby and Jade tried very hard to suppress their laughter. Their cousin Cho visited when they were five. Being the good playmates that they were, Ruby and Jade shaved their six-year-old cousin's head bald. It was worth the punishment they received after Cho went bawling to their Aunt Mei-lin. Their aunt shamelessly praised her own daughter Cho for being "so much prettier and cleverer."

Ruby and Jade grew more beautiful every year, at least according to the lovesick Muggle boys. Ruby blushes whenever her silky, raven hair, slender form, or large, dark brown eyes are complimented on. Jade gives no sign of appreciation, choosing to rotate her silver earrings instead.

Inside the Imperial Limo, Ruby jumped on the silk sofas while Jade lounged in a king-sized bed. The limo was charmed so it was as huge as a palace, big enough for you or me to get lost in. Yet Ruby and Jade often complained that they didn't have enough space for themselves.

Jade looked at her necklace thoughtfully. "You know, we should change our looks a bit to prove to our new schoolmates that we're not vulnerable little Chinese girls," she mused to her sister. "We may be just sixteen, but we're formidable opponents." She looked at Ruby, who was giggling at her own reflection in a bronze mirror. "Well, maybe just me then."

With a shrug, Jade turned her wand toward her hair. "Transformus Manecula!" Jade's hair was now streaked with bright green. The ends of her hair illuminated her waist with a faint, green glow. "That... looks... so... COOL!" gasped her sister. "Lemme try!" Muttering the same words, Ruby transformed her hair into black with a red tint. Jade nodded approvingly. "You weren't supposed to dye your whole hair, but the effect is quite nice," Ruby looked at the ruby stone sparkling on her gold chain. "Hey, my hair matches my jewel!" she smiled. "Yay for you," her twin sarcastically cheered.

Whispering clouds glided by the windows of the flying Imperial Limo. The sky noticeably grew darker with each passing mountain. Ruby sighed, "I miss home already," Jade scoffed. "Just think of what fun we'll have at our new home." Both girls turned to look at each other mischievously. Evil laughter traveled from the heavens and frightened the villagers of India below.
