Here's the next one! Enjoy!
Hannah walked down the train and could only find one empty compartment. Hannah sat down and pulled out hey copy of Pride and Prejudice, a Muggle classic. The train started moving and Hannah disappeared into the world of Lizzie Bennett.
"Hello," said a small, squeaky voice, moments later, "Everywhere else is full… mind if we sit here?" Hannah looked up and saw herself… wait, the girl had light brown eyes, not green. But that was the only difference. A girl with mousy brown hair popped her head around the girl and gasped a little. She pushed passed the other girl and looked at her, then back at Hannah, then to the other girl again.
"My goodness," the brown haired girl said, "The teachers are going to have a tough time differing between you two!" The red head giggled a little and looked back at Hannah. "I'm Hermione Granger and this is Ginny Weasley," the mousey brown haired girl said.
"I'm Hannah Abbott," Hannah said and looked at Ginny. Ginny smiled.
"Nice to meet you," Ginny giggled and sat down next to Hannah. Hermione took the seat across from them. "What are you reading, Hannah?" Hannah smiled at Ginny.
"Pride and Prejudice, it's a Muggle classic. It's quite good." Hannah put her bookmark in the book and put it in her handbag. Then she looked back at the girls, "What year are you guys?"
"I'm second year," Hermione said.
"… And I'm first year," Ginny chimed in.
"So am I," Hannah smiled. Both of the girls seemed like people she would like to be friends with, but she didn't know how to ask them to be.
Ginny looked shy, "Would you mind if I borrowed that book one day, after you're done reading it of course." Hannah smiled.
"Absolutely," Ginny smiled. Then Hermione and Ginny bombarded Hannah with questions, and Hannah did as well. Hannah learned that Hermione's favorite color is bright green, like freshly cut grass, and her goal was to be the best in her year. Ginny's favorite color was lavender, and her goal was to be nurse at St. Mungo's, the magical hospital.
"Wow…" Ginny said, "You want to be a writer. That is so cool!" Hannah smiled and Hermione smiled and nodded, agreeing with Ginny. Hannah looked up nervously.
"I wish I had friends like you guys in the Muggle world," Hannah said, sighing and looking down at her feet. Ginny gasped.
"But we're friends… aren't we?" Ginny looked at Hannah, who looked up with excitement.
"Yes… yes I think we are," Hannah said, and Ginny hugged her and Hermione joined in. The girls continued to talk, when Hermione suddenly gasped.
"What is it, Hermione," Ginny asked. Hermione looked horrified.
"Where are Harry and Ron?" Hermione looked and Ginny, who shrugged her shoulders.
"Maybe they are sitting with Dean and Shamus," Ginny said. Hermione looked up from her shoes.
"Well… I don't exactly know who we are talking about," Hannah said, "But we can always get up and go looking for them." Hermione's face lit up.
"I was just about to suggest that," Hermione laughed a little and stood up, "Well, let's go look."
They moved from car to car, looking in every compartment, trying to find two people named Harry and Ron. Hannah didn't know what to look for, but she figured that Ginny and Hermione were doing an okay job of looking. They decided to turn back when they got to the first car and check the back of the train. Just when they were about to, a skinny blond boy followed by two meaty looking boys walked out of their compartment, looked at Hermione and Ginny and sneered.
"Well, well, well…," the blond boy said, "If it isn't Weaslebee's girlfriend and little sister." The boys behind the blond one snickered.
"What do you want Malfoy?" Hermione looked at the blond one to answer her question.
"Oh just wondering if I need to run so you won't contaminate my blood with your Muggle-born blood." The boys behind the one called Malfoy burst out laughing this time. Ginny clenched her fist and Hermione looked like she was going to cry. One tear fell down Hermione's face, but that was enough to set Hannah off.
No one who knew Hannah dared to mess with her friends, let alone make them cry. Hannah stepped out from behind the girls. Hermione grabbed her hand to stop her, but it was no use. There was no stopping Hurricane Hannah now.
"Who are you," Malfoy said when he saw Hannah emerge from behind Hermione and Ginny. Hannah straightened up and looked Malfoy right in the eye.
"My name is Hannah Abbott and I would appreciate it if you keep your words to yourself." The boys behind Malfoy made "Ooo"ing noises and looked at Malfoy to respond.
"Oh, yeah," Malfoy said, "And who's going to stop me. A franky little first year like you, huh?" Hannah remained cool as a cucumber and responded.
"Yes." Malfoy looked taken aback, and the boy behind him did the same sounds as before.
"And just what, exactly, do you plan to do. You can't do magic, and you are way too small to cause me any physical harm. I just don't see what a Mudblood like you can do." Hermione and Ginny gasped from behind Hannah, and Ginny came up from behind her, ready to slap Malfoy. But Hannah stopped her and looked back at Malfoy.
"Malfoy, is it?" Hannah started, "I may not have the strength to physically harm you, not that I don't want to, nor to do magic, but I have something that you will never have."
"Oh…," Malfoy sneered, "And what might that be?"
"My dignity." And with that, Hannah grabbed the dumbfounded Ginny and Hermione and walked to the next car, leaving the speechless Malfoy & Co. behind.
There's the next installment! Hope you enjoyed it and like the twists. Have a wonderful day!
