Ellie woke up to the sun on her eyes. She groaned, but got up anyway. She walked to the shower and let the hot water pour over. Ten minutes later she walked out and hissed when the coldness hit her skin. She quickly grabbed clothes, then walked back into the steam filled bathroom. She put on dark straight leg jeans, a purple watercolor shirt, purple converses, her black pearl necklace, her angel wings earrings, and of course her mother's necklace (she never took it off). She put her blackberry cell phone in her pocket. Uncle Moony charmed it to work in Hogwarts. She brushed her now brown curly hair. Her silver eyes stared back at her. Her eyes tend to change. Their hazel around the iris. They change to silver when she was really mad, or nervous. It's hazel when she's happy, calm. But when she's crying her eyes are both. She brushed her teeth then walked out to the kitchen. Her Uncle Moony was dressed in a suit.

"Job?"

He nodded then took a drink of his coffee.

There was a knock at the door, Aunt Andy walked in.

"I see your ready Ellie. You wake up early?"

Ellie smiled, "When there's alot on my mind." She walked over to the coffee pot and poured her some.

"Is Sirius awake yet?"

Remus snorted, "What do you think Andy?"

She grimaced, "I figured, but his daughter is going to Hogwarts today. You think he'd want to see her off."

The same black dog from Ellie's dreams walked in with a leash.

Remus shook his head, "It's too dangerous Sirius."

The dog whined.

"No."

Ellie smiled, "Please Uncle Moony?" She gave him her best puppy dog look, and a tear slid down her cheek.

"Fine. But you'll need a glamous Sirius." The dog glared.

Ellie laughed, then stopped, "Crapola! Thanks for remindind me dad, I have to get Mr. Snuffles." She ran to her room and brought out Mr. Snuffles.

Remus laughed along with Aunt Andy.

"Where did you get that Ellie?"

Ellie squeezed tighter, "I've always had it. When I asked my mom, she told me that it was given to her and she gave it to me. She laughed when I told her his name."

Remus smiled, "Your dad's dog name was Snuffles."

Ellie laughed, "I guess dad's always been with me." The now golden retriever dog barked. Ellie scratched his head, then put Mr. Snuffles in her trunk.

Aunt Andy smiled, "So you have everything packed then little one?"

"Yup! I'm ready to go, but first I need breakfast."

"Do you have an owl Ellie?"

Ellie bit her lip, "Umm.. No. She was ours and got really sick and died along with my ... Mum. Her name was Lunabelle."

Aunt Andy put a hand on her shoulder, "You'll be fine hun. But since we're done.. I think it's time to leave." Ellie nodded and put on her black leather jacket with a hoodie. She pocketed her mini trunk (Aunt Andy shrunk it after Mr. Snuffles was safe). Aunt Andy put a hand on her and a hand on Sirius.

Pop!

"Hello Ms. Tonks." Andromeda Tonks fixed herself, shoulders back, chin up, haughty look.

"Minerva McGonagall."

"What a long time it's been?"

"Not long enough."

"This is the girl?"

"Yes, this is my neice. Ellie Windler."

"Windler?"

"Yes."

"Maera's daughter?" A soft look came upon the old woman's face.

"Yes. She's in Gryffindor."

"Follow me." She gave a disguisted look at Sirius the dog.

They followed her in the Great Hall. Andromeda looked around while McGonagall gave Ellie the rules. Then the doors opened.

"We have a new student attending Hogwarts. Her name is Ellie Windler. She will be continuing her fourth year." Dumbledore said.

Aunt Andy put a hand on Ellie and followed her old professor.

Sirius looked back at Ellie and gave a bark.

"Miss Windler, you may sit down with your fellow Gryffindors, and Ms. Tonks we'd be welcomed if you joined us professors for the rest of breakfast, and do not worry Miss Windler. You dog may sit with you." Ellie smiled and sat down next to a girl with brown bushy hair. Her 'dog' sitting next to her.

"Hello, I'm Hermione Granger."

Ellie smiled, "Ellie Windler."

"Pleasure to meet you, this is Ronald Weasley, and Harry Potter."

Ellie nodded at the both, "This is my dog Snuffles. He's actually well mannered. On occasions."

Harry smiled, "Nice to meet you Snuffles." He held out a hand, and Snuffles licked it.

Hermione, "So why did you transfer so late in the year?"

"Oh well, my mom sent me to live with my aunt. My step-dad and I don't particurally get along. Especially his daughter and I either. She's hoping that my aunt will straighten me out."

"Oh, that's... Well where did you transfer from?"

"Salem School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

"What's it like?"

Ellie smiled, "It's loads of fun. My two best friends Skylar, Rayna and I prank alot. But its all in good fun. As long as people don't get hurt. The classes are fun, the teachers are nice, but strict. They won't be unfair. Unless you have Professor Gable. He's just an all around jerk, and he teaches Defense Against the Dark Arts. So everyone has to deal with him. Instead of Gryffindor, Slytherin etc. We just go by year, and then your sorted into a 'house' when your thirteen. The houses are Amethystine. Onyxlynn. Topazine and Emeralda. After Amelia Amethystine, Lucinda Onyxlynn, Timothy Topazine, and Lucious Emeralda. Skylar and I were in Amethystine. Rayna and our other friend Vincent were in Onyxlnn. But when you have house, you have an ally house. Amethystine and Onyxlynn have an aliance so we share dorms together. Same with Topazine and Emeralda. Rayna and I met in our first year on the train there. Skylar was my neighbor. So we've been friends since birth. Rayna was also my roommate. Same with Vincent and Skylar."

"That's so cool!"

"Yeah I loved it."

"That sucks that you had to leave."

"Yeah.." Ellie looked down, "Skylar and I were unserperable. His mom and mine became best friends fast, and we were raised together. He never knew his dad, I never knew mine. Then Rayna was the only girl and her stepmom despises her. She's her dad's little girl. And.. It's kind of like the Muggle story Cinderella. Her step sisters are Chassidy and Cassidy, and their complete bitches. Their best friends with my stepsister. So we all bonded quickly. Vincent and I bonded because he was really quiet and I made him loud."

"Oh, I'm so sorry."

"Me too." Ellie looked back up, closed her eyes, re-opened them and smiled, "Anyway. What's the story between this school and you three?"

"Ellie." Ellie swirled around and saw Aunt Andy, "It's time for me to leave, and Snuffles." Ellie automatically frowned and her eyes lost their silverness.

"But.."

"Ellie you know it's not safe."

"I know." She hugged her aunt. Andy kissed her cheek.

"I've actually grown fond of you. Just like your mother." Ellie held back a tear. Then she looked at Snuffles who appeared to be crying. She let go of Aunt Andy and hugged him.

"I love you daddy." She whispered in his ear, "Be safe. I can't lose you again."

He licked her cheek, and then barked at Andromeda. Aunt Andy rolled her eyes.

"Too bad Snuffles. You can't stay." He whined and got off the bench.

Aunt Andy dropped her voice so only Ellie could hear, "Parents don't get to stay with their kids Sirius. Let her live her life. Just like I did Dora." She stood up, "I'll see you at Christmas Ellie?"

Ellie smiled, "Most definitely."

Aunt Andy smiled, "Excellent. Now be good."

"Define good."

"Don't be like your father."

Snuffles barked and Ellie laughed.

"No promises Aunt Andy. Pranking is in my blood, so is mischief."

Aunt Andy rubbed her temple, "I was afraid that would happen. Don't get too many detentions. Love you. Bye."

"Love you too Aunt Andy. Love you Snuffles." Snuffles licked her cheek one last time then trotted off. Ellie sniffed, then looked up, not wanting to cry.

Hermione patted her shoulder, "It will be okay."

Ellie smiled, "I know. It's just.. Snuffles is the only thing I have left. When I left my mom's house, I was only allowed to take a few things. I chose Snuffles."

Hermione gave her a small smile, "Well this weekend is a Hogsmeade weekend, would you like to join us?"

Ellie grinned, "I'd like that. Thankyou Hermione."

Ron swallowed his food, "So do you play Quidditch?"

"Hahaha yeah I do. Sky and I were chasers. Rayna didn't play. But when she did, she was an amazing beater. We used to joke about how her tiny body was 98% anger. 2% girly girl."

"That's amazing. Maybe you can show us some techniques."

Ellie laughed, "Yeah maybe. So when do you want to leave for Hogsmeade?"

Hermione smiled, "Now is fine." Ellie stood up with the rest of them. McGonagall walked to them.

"Miss Windler, your Aunt said you have permission to go to Hogsmeade. But Professor Dumbledore told us to watch you.. I assume you know why?"

Ellie, "No actually I don't. That's quite odd." McGonagall walked away.

On the way to Hogsmeade, Hermione and Ron decided to fill Ellie into the past three years and part of this year.

"Holy Crapola! Harry you defeated a dragon!"

Harry's cheeks tinted pink, "It's not that big of a deal."

Ellie was beaming her eyes shining, "That's amazing! I love dragons! Our Magical Creatures, Professor Lamble brought a dragon baby once. It was so sweet and adorable. I would've loved that. Did you know their easily amused, and the older they get the worse their vision can get. But dragons are also very untrusting. You have to pretty nice to even look at one."

Harry smiled, "And let me guess you walked right up to it and it loved you immediately."

Ellie blushed, "Kind of." She pulled up her sleeve showing teeth marks, "It loved me so much it bit me. Professor Lamble said, it was making me a dragon. I went to the library and found out when a baby dragon bites you it means your a very powerful witch or wizard and that they trust you. Baby dragons might be the friendliest. But their also the least trusting."

"Geez it was trying to eat you by the look!"

"That's what my friends said too!"

"Well I had a Hungarian Horntail."

"Hahaha, that's what it was!"

"Really?"

"Yeah, let me tell you, they have pretty sharp teeth."

"I'll take your word for it."

"Yeah. I can't decide what I want to be when we graduate. I either want to work with animals or be a professor. My favorite teacher, Professor McHansel told me that I would be excellent seeing as I know all the tricks, pranks, etc."

"That's awesome. Fred and George are masters at pranking."

"So I've heard. My mother and father were too apparently."

"They don't seem like it now?"

Ellie laughed, "Actually they do. My mom was always my best friend, and she told me my dad was a prankster too."

"Did your parents go here?"

"My stepdad Steve didn't. But yes both my parents did. My mom was a Ravenclaw, my dad a Gryffindor."

"Both my parents were Gryffindors."

"That is so cool!"

"Do you know your dad's name?"

Ellie paled.

"Nevermind. Don't answer that. So do you like chocolate?"

Ellie's eyes lit up, " I love it! I have a serious addiction!"

Harry smiled and laughed, "Then let's help that addiction out shall we." The two didn't notice Ron and Hermione smile, and walk away. Nor did they notice a pair of unfriendly eyes watching them either. Or the three pair of eyes smiling down on them.
