Who's the new Girl

Harry was sitting in the train compartment waiting for Ron and Hermione. He was in his sixth year at Hogwarts and had spent the past three weeks at the order. He was thinking about Sirius. he done it a lot now. With this thought Hermione and Ron burst in. They hugged him and sat down, talking about the summer and how nice it was to be together again. When they were nearly there they got ready and waited. "You don't seem happy to be going back to Hogwarts, do you?" Harry spun round to find Draco Malfoy standing funnily enough alone. "get lost Malfoy!" he replied. "that's not very nice, anyways I was just going to say the new girl is mine so don't get any ideas!" he turned around and swaggered on down the hall. "who's the new girl?" harry questioned "erm.it's.well it's." Ron tried to explain "it's Cedric Diggory's little sister Edana she's been going to Durmstrang for a few years but she couldn't stand it so she moved here and she is our age and really nice!" he spat all that out in one breath. "well if she is nice why does Malfoy want to go out with her?" Harry asked in a casual tone "dunno!" "we are now at Hogsmeade station Platform 9 and 3 quarters. get your stuff guys and if we are quick you might get a glance at the 'new girl'!" hermione said in an exasperated tone "sorry hermy!" harry joked "don't start!!!" and they got up and left the train. They were looking for a carriage when harry seen someone he didn't know get off the train. She had long deep brown hair, which fell down to her waist. Her face was so delicate and pale with full rouge lips. She was tall with long legs and an hourglass body; her eyes were a strange colour, deep brown but with a hint of emerald green. He stood transfixed on this figure until hermione blurted out "why don't you ask her out?" Ron saw that he was staring and said, "she's something, eh?" they climbed into the carriage with Ginny, Neville and Dean who wrenched his hand free from ginnys as Ron climbed in behind hermione. When the carriage started to move harry stared out the window at the other carriages wondering if Edana was in the same carriage as malfoy and pansy. When they arrived at the castle they went straight to the great hall and waited for the sorting ceremony to begin. Harry and Ron looked at all the house tables for the girl but were dumbfounded when they couldn't see her. Everyone fell silent when professer McGonagall entered followed by a nervous group of new 1st years. Once all thew 1st years had been placed instead of the hat getting put away McGonagall stood up and said "I have an announcement to make. we have a new 6th year joining us from Durmstrang and she has to go into a house but since she was already placed in her old school we have decided to put her in a house of our choice." she turned around to snape and beckoned him up. He got up and raised his voice so everyone could hear him " the girl will be joining Slytherin house so everyone make room for hin-oops-I mean Edana Diggory !" all the great hall cheered when she walked in and all off slytherin house stood up cheering at the top of their voices. Harry was a bit disappointed when he seen her sit down next to Malfoy with pansy glaring at her but not seeing this she immediately started talking to the surrounding crowd.then Dumbledore stood up and raised his hands as if holding a sign saying 'silence'. "I'm not good at speeches so all I'll say is eat till your full!" the plates filled in front of them and they ate. Just before departing to their rooms Dumbledore stood and said "when you open your trunks tomorrow instead of finding school robes you will find formal dress in your house colours you must wear these as they are your new school uniform.Edana may I have a word?" Edana got up and followed Dumbledore into a room in the back of the hall then snape and McGonagall followed. Professer sprout dismissed them to their dorms and then left. When Edana returned to her dorm it was late and was worried in case anyone was suspicious about her and indeed she was sure someone would find out her family's secret

Next morning harry awoke early and watched the soft morning sun rise into the sky and went to see what his new robes were like. Whilst doing this he remembered his dream. It had been Edana and him talking in a new common room where people from different houses could sit and talk without getting bothered. Anyway they were talking and then she kissed him lightly on the cheek and was going to tell him something and he woke up. He found his robes they looked a bit like his quidditch clothes although a bit more formal. Ron woke up after harry was changed and got himself dressed. They walked down checking their timetables. Ron groaned. They had double potions, double transfiguration and double divination. Harry gave a sympathetic look and they left for breakfast. Edana had been awake since the same time as harry. In her dream she knew what she was about to tell harry but she didn't want to. She pulled out a silk dress. It was red with burgundy trims. It was the same shape as her body as if her mother had it made specially but she knew it wasn't true they loved cedric more than her. For his birthday they took him out to really expensive places but it was only a carry out and a birthday cake for her. She checked her timetable double potions, double transfiguration and double divination. She sighed and went to meet Draco in the common room. Once she had finished breakfast she had half an hour to spare so she and Draco went for a walk to the lake. It was a beautiful morning and they shaded under a tall tree that looked so pretty in the water. They kissed and the bell rang so they hurried to get to potions. When they arrived pansy was taunting hermione as usual. Edana who thought it was a shame and was hoping to get to know the trio stepped in and stuck up for hermione. "so you picking on someone again pansy?" "Come off it Edana you have nothing to do with this so get lost!" "Pansy I have everything to do with it!" " what do you have which is occurring with this conversation?" "well you are calling hermione a mudblood and saying things like 'you will never pull a guy with horrible blood like yours' when you are like her" "what?!?" "you are muggleborn as well, are you not?" "how would you know?" "well you aren't on my family tree and all purebloods are related by blood or marriage are they not?" "i.I wouldn't." "my point is you are making fun of yourself are you not?" "well argued miss diggory" edana spun around to find snape smiling slightly. "if I hear any more arguments from anyone they will lose house points and earn a week's detention, have I made myself clear?" "yes sir.sorry sir!" the class said in unison and followed him into the class. "now get into your pairs.Edana you can work on your own!" everyone got to work and instead of Hermione finishing first, Edana did. "let me see."snape was towering over Edana "ah yes.a perfect solution to delete a muggle's memory and with another half hour left. Well I think about.20 points to slytherin will do the trick!" he moved to Harry "potter what colour is the solution supposed to be?" "light aqua or almost clear sir!" "then why is yours a mucky brown.? I think 20 points from gryffindor for not listening and a low mark should be nearly enough!" The bell rang for break and the trio were walking out to the lake when Edana started shouting to them telling them to wait up. "Hi so you're the group who save the world every year then?" "What???" "No I'm only joking so you are harry and you are Ron and of course Hermione!" " Yeah thanks for sticking up for me there!" "no problem she's been glaring at me since he first day so that was my chance to put a stop to her taunting! So tell me more about Cedric and about this tournament!" "em well what happened was." the bell rang just at that and they all hurried up to transfiguration.

Edana had sat next to Harry and Hermione in transfiguration and Ron kept on peering over Harry's head to catch a glimpse of Edana. She finished before Hermione again and earned 5 points for Slytherin. It was as if she had done this all before. Edana went to meet Draco at lunchtime in the great hall. She came in behind pansy and could hear her saying, "why is he going out with that brainbox?" Edana ignored this and took her seat with Draco which pansy was trying to sit on. The trio went and got a bite to eat and went to sit at the lake underneath a magnificent tree. They were talking about their timetables and who would be the new defence against the dark arts teacher when they heard an announcement. It was McGonagall saying "could everyone with divination next two periods report to the great hall immediately!" So Harry, Ron and Hermione all ran back to the castle. Once in the great hall everyone took a seat at a table and turned to professer McGonagall who looked very stressed. "this afternoon you all must go to defence against the dark arts instead of divination because all the teachers able to teach this are ill. That is all." Outside harry turned to his friends and said
