**Mure's Notice Type Thing/Disclamer** I don't own Harry Potter blahblahblah. If you want to flame someone, send a letter to J.K. Rowling or Warner Brothers _; This is my first fic on fan fiction.net so I hope you like it. And I hope that you don't fall asleep with my 6th grade vocabulary XD;; This chapter is in the eyes of Harry, and soon it'll be switched up. So, before you read, I want you to read the character profiles. (by the way, some of the characters like Crystal belong to my best friend, so if you don't like her profiles .. GO TO HADES! XD)

The Characters Introduced In This Chapter:

Stephanie Ellen Waterlily: "Stephanie, you idiot!" "Miss Waterlily, pay attention." "Water-lily." "STEPHANIE ELLEN WATERLILY!" As you can tell, Stephanie is a goof-off. She makes passing grades, amazing as it sounds. To cut it short, Stephanie is weird. The Co-Editor of the Daily Hog, a newspaper ran by her and her best friend Crystal Celent, she is serious about her work .. half of the time anyway. Her hair is a light shade of chesnut-brown and eyes grizzly bear brown, you can't keep this high- spirited, 15 year old Gryffindor away from an adventer! (unless it was something really bad, but eh.)

The Chapter of One

"Stephanie..."

I poked the sleeping idiot and gently tore a piece of parchment from her forehead. I looked at the half finished homework, threw it aside, and tried to heave her from the floor and into a chair, but she wouldn't budge. I kicked at her side a few times and she simply turned over, a warm smile creeping onto her face. Rolling my eyes in fustration, I left her there for Crystal (or possibly Ron) to wake up.

At the foot of the stairs, I called up to my friend Ron and then Hermione (who was rarely ever late, but it seemed to take her forever this morining) and tapped my foot impatiently. I was in a bad mood from Malfoy from last night, but I was glad it was Chirstmas and he went the devil home.

"RON, HERMION--"

I was knocked down by a blur of maroon red, then Hermione slowly creeped down the girl's stairway, followed by Crystal shortly after.

Ron looked down at Stephanie and whispered, "Report due today."

She instantly sprang up, brushed her hair with a quill and ran into the wall. Ron cracked up and as she kicked him in the shin, scribbled bunches of stuff on parchment.

"Stephanie, chill, there's not report," Crystal replied to Stephanie's frantic actions, fighting back a giggle.

"Oh," she said in half excitement.

"Shall we head to the Main Hall?" She asked, holding out her arm like an escort.

"I think we shall," we all replied together, and left the Gryffindor Common Room arm and arm.

"I am STUFFED," was the answer of the 10 students as they pushed themselves from the table. We all filed out and I was suddenly pulled aside from a grinning Ron by a nervous looking Stephanie. She clenched my arm until her knuckles turned white and yelping in pain, I snatched away, hopping on one foot while nursing it.

"What did you do that for?" I asked angrily.

"Daily Hog. Professor McGonnagall reminded me just then that we had to turn in the issues by tonight, and we didn't even start on the paper!"

Stephanie started pacing and I led her outside the Great Hall and into a broom closet. I closed the door, then shook her.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US BEFORE!" I shouted. "I forgot," she said in a small voice. I let go and walked around, looking like Stephanie.

"How come you didn't bother Crystal with this news?" I asked finally.

"She looked too happy," Stephanie said, sinking on her knees.

"Oh, and like I didn't?"

My temper was rising again. I heard a small sniff and rolled my eyes. "Oh no, don't start that," I turned away and folded my arms. Unlike other girls, Stephanie stopped instantly and poked me in the small of my back. "We'd better get started, no?" I sighed again and nodded. "I guess," I said, opening the closet door. We both stepped out and headed toward the Gryffindor Common Room to call a meeting of the press.
