CHAPTER 1:
+Animas are beings who possess animal-like powers. They walk among us shunned by society.
Minji Park being one of these 'creatures' has lived with this secret since she was 5. Now 11 years later she was on her way to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Minji sighed as she watched the parents wave their children goodbye as the train started to leave platform 9 ¾ . She had so far been blessed with an empty compartment not looking forward to all the questions that come with starting a new school.
"Quibbler?" a pixie blonde girl asked as she opened the compartment door.
"Oh, yes please" Minji beamed as she reached for the magazine.
"Are you new?" the girl questioned smiling slightly
"Yes" she mumbled her head now buried in an article, the girl smiled and sat down opposite Minji staring intently. She shifted slightly feeling the girls unwavering eyes on top of her head before slowly raising her head and throwing a questioning look. However the girl said nothing and instead turned to her own copy of the Quibbler; seeming to read it upside down. They sat there in silence for a few hours until the pixie girl got up saying something about nargles and left, only to return seconds later.
"My names Luna Lovegood by the way, it was pleasant to meet you" the girl said
"Ah, Park Minji" Minji said quietly slightly off guard at the girls sudden appearance again. Luna just smiled and walked off again, Minji could hear her call 'quibbler' as she went down the corridor. The rest of the train trip went pretty quietly except for the lady with the lolly cart dropping by and students running up and down the corridor to see their friends.
"God Damn it!" Minji muttered running up the stairs to two massive doors where a man with thin grey/brown hair, a long brown coat and a deep scowl on his face stood.
"And where have you been?" he grumbled
"Ah... I had to... bathroom" she practically squeaked
"Well hurry up, the sorting has already started" he said pushing her through the massive doors when she just stood there and gave him a confused look. As they entered the great hall every eye in the room snapped to them, with another push from the man Minji slowly made her way towards the small group of children at the front of the hall.
"Ah, Miss Park I'm glad you made it" an aging man with a sliver bread and half moon glasses said from his chair at the front of the hall. She smiled slightly before nodded and stopping behind the first years. Minji stood there daydreaming as each of the first years slowly and nervously made their way to the front to be sorted. 'What's with this sorting into houses crap? Is it really important? I wonder what house I will be in.'
"MISS PARK!"
"Hmm...?" she mumbled snapping out of her thoughts and looking around to see people sniggering, looking back up to the front she could see a woman dressed in green with a very stern look on her face.
"Would you please come up here and sit down" the woman said obviously annoyed, Minji blushed slightly before making her way up to the small stool and sitting down awkwardly. She jumped as a dusty old hat was placed on her head and it instantly started talking.
"Hmm...You're an interesting child aren't you?" it mumbled "not very smart though, so defiantly not ravenclaw" Minji pouted at this as the hat continued "and defiantly not Slytherin, they would tear you apart..." the hat paused thinking and murmuring things like 'loyal' and 'brave' the whole time Minji sat there nervously biting her lip. "I know! Better be... HUFFLEPUFF!" The hat announced loudly. The woman in green took the hat of her head and motioned to a table with yellow and black decorations. She slowly stood and walked towards the table sitting down in the least occupied part of the table, as the elderly man from earlier stood introducing himself as Albus Dumbledore the head master and then explaining some rules; like not going into the forbidden forest. When the short speech was finally over, Minji's nose was assaulted with the smell of the mountain of food that was now covering the table. With wide eyes and an empty stomach she instantly started piling food onto her plate and started eating. The food was amazing, a lot better than she was use to at the orphanage or her old school in Korea.
After finishing dinner Minji was taken to the Hufflepuff common room, a small round room with yellow lounges and a large fireplace in the corner. She was then lead to the room where she would be staying. Walking in she found that her trunk was already sitting at the end of a twin four post bed with yellow curtains. Exhausted from the day's events she quickly changed into her make shift pj's ( a black tank top and purple short shorts) and climbed into bed and fell asleep almost immediately.
