When Strangers Meet
By Mei Hamasaki
Chapter 1
The sun was shinning brightly trough the blinds of a small turquoise colored room. A big lump of blankets moved slightly and an arm came out of the bundle. The bundle moaned and turned over revealing a beautiful sleeping girl with dark red hair with black streaks in it.
Beep beep beep beep beep!!!!
The girl moaned again and swung her arm on the alarm clock, but she missed and it kept on ringing. She was getting annoyed so she felt around for the clock, took it in her hand and threw it across the room. Silence.
'It's about time' she thought sleepily.
"Mei get up! We have to go shopping for your school supplies." Yelled a voice from downstairs. The girl's eyes snapped open, revealing blood red eyes, when she heard her aunt's words.
"O yeah, I forgot" she mumbled as she got out of bed. She picked up a pair of rectangular glasses on her bedside table and put them on.
She got dressed in her usual; pair of casual comfy black jeans that flowed out at the feet, a big bulky belt with spikes on it, a red tank top that stopped right over her belly button showing a pierced bellybutton, and a fishnet shirt over her tank top. She brushed her waist long hair and ran down stairs to greet her aunt.
She lives with her aunt because her parents were killed by the evil Lord Voldemort. She used to live right next to the Potters.
Her parents knew that Voldemort was coming so they sent her to her babysitters down the street so he wouldn't find and kill her. Voldemort killed the Hamasaki's first, Mei's family, and then he killed the Potters but was wiped of his power when he tried to kill young Harry Potter.
Mei was sent to live with her aunt in a wizarding world in Canada. She has lived there for 14 years but now she moved back to England with her aunt and is being transferred from the school of witchcraft and wizardry in Canada to Hogwarts. She would be in her fifth year since she has already completed four years at her old school.
She would only be getting to the school a few days after the rest of the school instead of the first of September like everyone else. Today was the 3rd of September and she would be going to get her school supplies needed for the year. She would also be needing the books from last year so she can catch up on what they have been learning. She took the two slips of parchments containing her school supply list and tucked them away into her pocket.
When she got downstairs, her aunt greeted her and asked "Do you have the list Mei?"
"Yes I have it Aunt Rose"
"Well then lets go" with that she handed a pot to Mei filled with white powder, floo powder. Mei took a pinch of the powder threw it into the fire, stepped in after it and said clearly "Diagon Alley" and was gone, her aunt soon followed.
Mei had never been to Diagon Alley but she felt as if she had lived in it for ever. She was walking down the alley with her aunt reading her list.
"First we should get your school robes" Aunt Rose said pointing to Madam Malkin's robes for all occasions shop.
She walked out of the shop with a large bundle under her arms. Next they went to the cauldron shop and got a pewter standard size 2 cauldron.
After about an hour of shopping, they only had three things left to buy, a wand, a broomstick and a pet. They had a quick lunch before heading towards Ollivanders, the wand shop.
Mei walked in the shop and looked around, every inch of the store was piled high with long thin boxes. An old man with bright blue eyes that looked like glass stepped out of one of the isles.
"Hello" he said in a voice that made shivers go up her spine.
"Hi I'm here for a wand" She said trying not to look in his very freaky eyes.
"Of course you are" with that he disappeared into the isles and came out carrying about five boxes containing wands.
"Here" he said as he opened a box pulling out a long pink wand
"Try this one, it contains one unicorn hair and is made out of birch" he handed her the wand she took it carefully and whispered an incantation to make flowers but instead she got mud.
"No no defiantly no" Mr. Ollivanders said as he took the wand out of her hands. He opened another box pulling out a light brown wand
"Ahh Holly and phoenix feather, try this one" he handed her the wand she took the wand and whispered the same incantation but instead of flowers she got a bouquet of thorns.
Her aunt had to duck from getting hit with the thorns as the bouquet suddenly flew out of the wand. Mei quickly put the wand down and stepped away from it.
"Right then" he said as he unwrapped yet another box pulling out a red wand. She took the wand and felt a comfortable warmth when she took it. She whispered yet again the incantation for flowers and roses, violets, bluebells, snapdragons, dandelions, daffodils, orchid, tulips, iris, pansies, forget-me-nots and cherry blossoms bloomed out of the tip of her wand.
"Whoa" Mei said looking at all the flowers which were now on the ground.
"Bravo dear" her aunt said with glee.
"Very good young lady, and what an unusual combination for a wand I might add, phoenix tail feather and redwood 8 ¾ inches. Redwood is very rare to find nowadays." Mr. Ollivanders said.
Mei paid for her wand they left the shop.
"What would you like to get now Mei?" Aunt Rose Asked.
"Well I reckon we should get my broomstick then my animal" Mei said thoughtfully.
"Right then next stop Quidditch quality supplies!" aunt Rose said as she grabbed Mei with one hand and some bags with the other before running a full speed to the shop with Mei being dragged behind her.
'Whoa, I never knew aunt Rose could run so fast' Mei thought as she brush the dust off her clothing. She looked up and saw the reason her aunt was running so fast, a tall young man was standing behind the counter and her aunt was talking, well it was more like flirting with him.
Deciding to leave them alone she walked around the shop looking at brooms. Her eyes fell on the broom in the window, it had a long sleek, black handle. And printed in shimmering gold letters "Firebolt" she read out loud.
"Mei have you found a broom you like yet?" her aunt asked from behind her.
"Yes I have Aunt Rose but I reckon it's a little too expensive for our budget" she said sadly.
"But you even know what our budget is" Aunt Rose said smiling "Believe me dear we have enough for this broom"
"Really?!?" Aunt Rose nodded, Mei hugged her tightly and repeated "Thank you" over and over again without taking a breath.
Aunt Rose was turning purple form lack of air and tried to pry Mei off her but failed miserably.
Mei finally let go and thanked her once more before taking the broom and rushing to the counter her aunt not far behind.
They left the shop in high spirits; Mei with her new broomstick and Aunt Rose with a date (^^).
They were walking down Diagon Alley eating ice cream while trying to decide what animal to get.
"Well I'm defiantly not getting a toad" Mei said while licking her ice cream.
"Why don't you get a cat?" Aunt Rose suggested.
"I don't know, I really wanted an owl so I can keep in touch with you all year without having to use the school owls." Mei said as she looked into Eeylops Owl Emporium.
"Well then it's settled we'll get you an owl." Aunt Rose said as she walked into the emporium with Mei trailing behind her.
They left the shop with a large cage. Inside the cage there was a beautiful snowy owl with ice blue eyes. Mei named her Kailey.
"Well then I think were done here then let's go home" Aunt Rose said as they walked towards the fireplace used for floo powder transportation.
Mei climbed into the fireplace holding her owl, her broomstick and her potion ingredients.
Aunt Rose threw in the pinch of floo powder for her. Mei was transported back home soon flowed by Rose.
Mei spent the next to days packing everything up in her trunk and playing with Kailey. Her Aunt had repaired her alarm clock by magic and they were more then ready for tomorrow when Mei would go to platform 9 ¾ to take the Hogwarts express to school. She would be all alone on the train but she didn't seem to mind she was planning on reading some of her school books from last year.
The next day she woke at the sound of her alarm clock and this time she didn't throw it across the room she actually got up and showered. She decided not to get changed into her uniform until later so she put on a pair of baggy jeans and a tight dark green tank top that showed her belly button. She brushed her hair and put it into a low ponytail with some strands hanging loses down her face.
The Hogwarts express would leave at exactly eleven o'clock. She wanted to be there early.
When they arrived at Kings Cross train station they were twenty minutes early, they found the barrier for the platform in between platforms nine and ten. To cross to the other platform you had to walk straight at the wall separating nine and ten. Mei had put her trunk on a trolley and walked casually trough the barrier with Rose not far behind.
They loaded her trunk in one of the compartments near the middle and she put Kailey on one of the seats in her compartment.
It took them about ten minutes to heave her heavy trunks into a compartment. After they finally put away her trunk, they stepped off the train to say goodbye.
"Have fun sweetie, and don't forget to write" Aunt Rose said as she hugged Mei tightly.
"Don't worry Aunt Rose. I'll be fine and ill write every time I have the chance to" Mei said as she hugged back just as tightly.
The whistle blew for all the passengers to come aboard.
"Well I better go now good bye and don't miss me too much now" Mei said with a laugh as she let go of her aunt.
"Good bye and be good, I don't want to have any letters saying that your expelled or dead"
Mei climbed on to the train and looked out of the window to her compartment waving to her aunt as the train sped off into the country side.
