Chapter 1
Exchange Students and Secrets Reveled

Professor Dellhigh walked up to where his two best students were standing during their lunch break. The girls turned to look at him as he neared them.

"Ashley, Ariel, I would like a word with both of you after lessons in my office."

"Okay," Ariel replied. She and her sister were in their seventh year at The American Academy for Witches and Wizards. They were pure blood, for as far back as their family went. They had started in the school in the same year, though Ariel was 18 months older, both the Headmaster and their parents thought it best to keep them together. No one would tell them why they were kept together, but they always asked anyone they thought would know.

Professor Dellhigh nodded and turned to walk back inside and to his office. He was the headmaster of AAWW, as everyone called the school. He had been there since Rebeka and Thomas, the girls parents had been in the school, but then he had not been Headmaster, just the potions teacher.

"Why do you think he wants to see us?" Ashley asked her sister as the bell rang, signaling them to go to their Transfiguration class.

"No idea," Ariel replied, grabbing her books and walking inside.

Harry looked out the window of the Hogwarts Express as it pulled out of Kings Cross Station, and let a small smile creep across his face. It was his final year, seventh year, at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. After that year, he could move into the house his godfather, Sirius, had left him over a year ago, and finally leave the Dursley's for good.

"Harry," Hermione said form where she sat next to him. He turned to face her. Her once long, curly hair was now short and strait.

"Yea," he replied.

"Did you ever find out what Lupin was hiding?" Ron asked. He was sitting across from Harry. His red hair and freckles were the same as always.

"No," Harry replied.

"I still don't understand why they won't just tell us when something big is going to happen at Hogwarts," Ginny said, she was sitting next to her brother, "It's not like we'll tell anyone."

"I guess they just want us to find out for ourselves," Hermione replied, along with all the other students."

"I don't know," Harry said. "Whatever it is, we'll find out soon enough."

-

Ariel and Ashley walked into Professor Dellhigh's office after the last bell that afternoon and found him sitting at his desk, waiting for them. "Please, sit," he requested, waving his hand toward the two chairs across form him. They sat.

"I know you are both wondering why I asked you here," he stated. "I also know that you have both wondered why you were sent here in the same year. You being here will answer both those questions. You are both part of a student exchange program that has been happening every fifty years for the last two centuries. You were kept together because your parents wanted you both to have the chance to participate in the tradition."

"So we're going to another school?" Ashley asked.

"Yes. You will both attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Europe for the next year," he told them. "You will arrive there in time for the Beginning of Year Feast and will be sorted into houses then. Professor Dumbledore will inform you of more." He looked at the clock. "He is expecting you to arrive in a half an hour so he can inform you of a few things before the arrival of the rest of the school. Go to your dorms and pack your things, be back here in twenty minutes. Leave your things in your dorms, they will be sent after you."

The girls turned and left the room to pack. As they neared their dorm, they saw Jessica, a friend of theirs, walking toward them.

"What was that about?" she asked them.

"We're going to Hogwarts for the year," Ashley replied.

"In England!" Jessica exclaimed.

"Yeah, no big," Ariel told her. "We'll bring our laptops and e-mail you."

"Yea," Ashley added, "but we gotta pack now. We'll miss you."

They said their goodbye's and Jessica left them to pack. As they entered their dorm, Ashley turned to Ariel. "Did we ever unpack?" she asked sarcastically.

"No," Ariel replied. "So we just get ready to go I guess."

Ashley and Ariel put on their best school robes, making sure you could clearly see they were form AAWW, pulled back their hair, and left to say their goodbyes.

Harry was still staring out the window as an owl flew by. It slowed as it neared his window, and flew at a steady pace beside it. Harry opened the window, letting the owl inside. "Look," Hermione said, pointing to a letter tied to its foot. Harry removed the letter and began reading it,

Harry,
I can't tell you as much as I would like to now, but I must see you in my office before the banquet this evening. Yes, I am teaching at the school again, but only because of the lack of teachers who wish for the job. It's a wonder that the Ministry Of Magic allowed me to teach again at all, but Dumbledore said it is because they want more members of the order to be at the school.

Will see you soon, Professor Lupin

"So that's what he was keeping form you," Ron said as Harry let the owl back out the window.

"No," Ginny told him, "He would have told us if he had known. I suspect he just found out before we left and had no time to tell us."

"Ginny's right," Hermione agreed, "He would have told us."

"Well, whatever else is happening, we'll find out soon." Harry said looking at his watch. They had about an hour left before they arrived.

-

Ashley and Ariel walked into Professor Dellhigh's office exactly when they were supposed to be there. He was holding an old, rubber boot. "Girls, I expect you have used a porkey before."

"Yes," they replied simultaneously.

"Good, because that is the fastest way to get to Hogwarts," He told them. "When you arrive, Professor Dumbledore will be waiting for you. He will explain the rest to you. You will be able to keep in touch with all friends you have here, by whatever means you wish." He stopped and looked at the clock on the wall. "You have to leave soon, so please touch the porkey, and please keep me updated on everything that happens." The porkey transported them to Dumbledore's office.

"Hello girls," Professor Albus Dumbledore said as they arrived in his office, exactly when expected.

"Hello," They replied, looking around the room. The circular room was filled with every discarding device they knew. The photos on the walls looked at them, watching their every move.

"I am Professor Dumbledore, I expect you are Ashley and Ariel, I am just wondering which of you is which so I may not confuse you." He told them.

"I'm Ashley," She said.

"I'm Ariel."

"It's a pleasure to meet you both." He told them. "I know you were both sent here with little information about the school and our ways, but I expect you will find them very much like those of The American Academy for Witches and Wizards. We have a banquet in the beginning of term, which will begin in an hour, there you will be introduced to the rest of the school and sorted into your houses."

"Our what?" Ariel asked.

"Your houses," he repeated, " They will be like your family within Hogwarts School. They will be who you have class with and which dorms you sleep in. Is that not what you had before?"

"No," Ashley informed him," We were placed together because of being sisters. Everyone else was placed in dorm rooms. We were mixed in classes."

"Oh, I see. Well that will probably be one of the few things different between the schools." He replied. "The feast will begin soon, so I would like you to follow me and I will show you as much that will be useful to you in the time allowed." He stood and left the room, the girls close behind him.

-

The train began to slowly stop at Hogsmade Station and Harry, Hermione, and Ginny stood and left the compartment to join the crowd of students making their way onto the platform, all excited to be back. "Firs' Years, Firs' Years This Way," called a familiar voice as they walked onto the platform. They saw Hagrid walking down the platform.

"Hi Hagrid," They said, all at different times. He nodded as a response, and they were pushed along the platform toward the carriages. Harry looked at them. He was getting used to seeing the Thestrals, he had seen them for the past two years, but Hermione, Ron, and Ginny still couldn't see them. That had puzzled him for the year before. He had, after many hours of thought and wondering, decided that they couldn't see them because they had not watched Sirius fall into the veil. Harry climbed into the carriage and they began their way to the school.
