Ok! Chapter 4! How will the feast go? Who will they meet? Read to find out!I know I put this in the summary, but just in case...Disclaimer: I do not own anything from Harry Potter or W.I.T.C.H.-

We followed Dumbledore out of his office and into the hallway. Out of nervousness, I pulled my robe (we changed in to them in our dorms) tighter around me which I tend to do a lot under stressful situations. I wonder what all the wizards and witches will be like.

I stopped suddenly, as I had just remembered something important."Dumbledore, what about our wands? We won't look like normal witches if we don't have any."

"I have talked to all your teachers and told them that where you were taught before, you used wandless magic. It should not be a problem."

"Oh wow," Kenna said. "I completely forgot about that!"

"It seems strange, though, don't you think?" Aira asked. "Our entire lives we've used wandless magic, yet here they find it hard to do so."

"I'm pretty sure we will be the ones thought of as strange." I said. "I'm cool with that." Cari said grinning. "We all know that Cari," Nova spoke, giving her a look.

"Here we are!" Dumbledore suddenly interrupted. "I hope you all enjoy your first day here."

I took a deep breath to try and calm myself. It didn't work. I didn't even know why I was so nervous about this. Oh well, I hope we won't be the last ones to go in. That would be embarrassing beyond belief. I suddenly heard the sound of chatter as he pushed the door open and walked through. The rest if us followed after him.

HARRY POV.

We were all sitting in the Great Hall, waiting for Dumbledore. This is the first time he's ever been late, I passed the time by talking to Ron, Hermione, and the Weasley twins. The doors suddenly opened and in came Dumbledore. But he was not alone. He had five girls walking behind him that seemed to be our age.

I heard some people gasp and stare at them who were closer to the doors. It wasn't until I really saw them that I understood why. These girls were beyond beautiful. There were no flaws visible on their faces and they seemed to have almost this strange effect to make you want to look at them.

The first girl that came in headed to the Ravenclaw table. She had dark skin and hair, but was still somehow fair. Two of the others headed to the Hufflepuff table. The first one had very long straight blonde hair that almost looked silver. The second, looked of Asian nationality and had long black hair pulled into two ponytails. The last two girls headed to our table. They sat a little ways away from everyone, but close enough that I could still talk to them. One girl had red hair that put the Weasley's to shame. It was a blood red color, and she had it hanging around her face in a bob. The last one looked more beautiful than the rest. She had brown hair that went in curls just below her shoulders and had the greenest eyes I'd ever seen, they almost seemed to glow, like the others.

I looked around at the others and saw Fred and George and pretty much everyone else still gaping at them. "Welcome back to Hogwarts!" Dumbledore announced when he felt he should take some pity on the girls.

Back to Tara POV

I sighed in relief as Dumbledore started talking. I could still feel people looking at me! Ugh! I hate this! Absolutely hate it!

'We all do, but you don't see us screaming it in our heads.' Cari felt the need to say in my head. 'Is nothing sacred!' 'Nope' Aira answered for me.

'That was as bad as I'd thought it be.' Nova put in. 'Their still staring at us to' 'It's official,' Cari thought, 'English kids have the worst manners.' 'Will you all shut up? I'm trying to listen to Dumbledore!' 'Nerd' Cari teased. I decided to just ignore her and TRY to listen.

He was talking about the staff changes. Hagrid wasn't teaching? He said he would he here tonight so Dumbledore must have told him today. How on Candracar did he manage to do that?

Now, one of the new teachers or professor, was talking. She looked ridiculous. I've never seen so much pink on one person. I'm already getting bad vibes from her. Not good. How long is she going to talk for? She's just been going on, and on. Finally! She's done!

"Now, let the feast begin!" Dumbledore announced. The tables suddenly had lots of food on them. This is kind of creepy. Eww, they have so much meat! All of the guardians are what do you call them again? Oh yeah! Vegetarians! I really need to go over my Earth vocabulary.

I looked up suddenly, and found a red-head boy staring at me. There was a person right next to him that looked exactly like him. I'm assuming their twins or very, very close friends... that like to look exactly like the other.

In fact, now that I looked, lots of redheads were staring at us. Four, I think. Probably related. But those twins were kinda cute... 'Ooh, Tara's got the love bug!' Aira sang in my head. 'You guys are so! I don't even know! That's how bad you are!' 'Someone's getting touchy.' Cari thought. I could see her grin. I wasn't even looking at her!

To get out of this stupid conversation, I turned to the people nearest us, (the redheads, a brunette, and a black haired boy) and said, "Hello! My name is Tara, and she is Nova!" I pointed to her for good effect.

For a second the all stared at me. Then the brunette said, "I'm Hermione Granger, they are Fred and George Weasley," she pointed to the twins when she said that. Interesting. "This is Ron Weasley, their brother, and Harry Potter." they all looked at us as if we were supposed to know exactly who he was.

Nova and I shared a confused glance before I said, "Lovely to meet you all. Hermione is an interesting name. It comes from Shakespeare's A Winter's Tale, doesn't it? I believe it means 'earthy'." The redhead called Ron just gaped at me.

"Blimey! How on Earth do you know all that?" "Tara's the biggest Shakespeare fan ever." Nova told him.

"I am not! I just happen to know every play he's ever written."

"Sure, I believe you."

"It's obvious from your tone and voice that you do not!" I huffed. She just grinned at me. I tell you, the things I put up with!

"You enjoy reading Shakespeare?" Hermione asked me. "There she goes, now we'll have to listen about Shakespeare for the rest of tonight." A twin sighed. I really wasn't sure which was which.

"You don't enjoy Shakespeare...?"

"George," he told me. "Don't worry, almost everyone gets it wrong." I smiled at him "thats good to know, now I won't be under too much pressure to get it right." I looked at his hand and asked if I could see it. He looked confused but gave it to me anyways.

"Aha! You have a mole on you right hand and Fred doesn't! That's how I'll tell you two apart!" I said smiling triumphantly. George looked surprised and amused, while Fred looked slightly amazed, and also amused.

"So, um, Harry, is it? What's up with the lady who looks like a pink pea? I saw you giving her a dirty look earlier." I heard Nova ask

"Her name is Professor Umbridge. She was at my hearing at the ministry and voted me to be expelled from Hogwarts."

"Ministry?" Nova and I both asked at the same time confused. Was this the lawmaker people?

"You both don't know about the Ministry of Magic?" Ron asked us incredulously.

"No, where we come from there isn't one."

"It's basically the governing body for all wizards and witches. Every country has one." Hermione explained to us.

"I guess we come from somewhere where there isn't one." I said, not wanting a lot of questions. Especially when I didn't know what our story was supposed to be.

"No ministry of magic? Impossible!" Ron argued. "Where'd you all go to school before here anyways?"

"Umm..." Crap. Guess I'll have to improvise. "We didn't go to any wizarding school before this." I explained. "We were taught wandless magic."

"You all know wandless magic?" Harry asked us. We nodded. "All five of you!"

"It was a special situation." Nova said, trying to get them less suspicious.

I felt eyes on me. Well, more than before because many people were STILL staring. I turned and saw a handsomeish boy with two mean-looking goons sitting next to him. He was the one that was staring at me. He didn't stop when I turned to look at him either, just kept on staring.

"Do any of you know who that blonde boy is back there?" I asked.

Fred looked up (I could tell it was him because of his hand) and scowled. Everyone else seemed to be doing that to.

"Is he gross or something?" I asked, confused.

"Draco Malfoy," Harry said, "he's the biggest git on the entire planet. He thinks just because he's a pureblood he's better than everyone else."

"And he's a coward." Ron added. "just like all the other Slytherins."

"They do seem rather obtuse. In more ways than one." Nova commented while looking over her shoulder at them.

"Obtuse is putting it mildly." Harry and Ron assured us.

"So, will you both be staying in the Gryffindor dorms?" Hermione asked.

"No, all five of us will share a dorm instead of being in our house dorms." I told them.

They all looked surprised. "Really?" Hermione asked. "Why?"

Hmm, what to tell them. Maybe we should all have a disease. "Dumbledore told us there was no more room in the dormitories so we would all just have to share this year." Nova hastily told them. I nodded along in agreement.

"Strange. Very strange." Hermione said looking at us.

"Do any of you play Quidditch?" Ron asked while practically inhaling his food.

"I'm afraid we don't know what that is." I answered.

"Holy crow! They don't know what Quidditch is!" All the boys then felt the need to explain every single detail of Quidditch. How it was played, which teams were the best, records of longest Quidditch games. By the time they were done I got the basic idea of it. I looked to Hermione and she looked as lost as I did.

Soon after everyone was done, the feast ended. I got up and waited for the other three with Nova. When they got here I heard them talking about how you could cross a banana with an apple and get a ban-apple.

As they got close to hear me, I said, "don't even ask! I'm not going to crossbreed a banana and apple for you!"

"Tara, Tara, Tara," Cari started. "how could you be so cruel? We are trying to do a scientific experiment, but you won't even help?" She gave me puppy dog eyes just to make me feel guilty.

"Nope" I said, making the p pop.

"So mean!" I just rolled my eyes. I was suddenly aware that Harry, Ron, Hermione, and the twins were staring at us.

"Oh! How rude of us! I'm Kenna, that's Aira, and that's Cari." they in turn told them their names, again.

"Yes, just ignore them and maybe you'll be able to think without someone butting into your thoughts." They all looked slightly confused at this and very amused.

"No idea what your talking about." Cari said, smirking.

"I'm so sure." Cue the eye roll.

"Will we see you all tomorrow?" Hermione asked breaking our talking while we walked down the corridor.

"Yep! We're in Gryffindor so of course we'll be in you classes. And I'm pretty sure we'll have at least one class with those little boys over there." I said pointing to the other three.

"Hey! I am not a boy, nor little!" Cari said glaring at me.

"Whatever helps you sleep at night."

"Ugh! You call ME the annoying one."

"We'll see you all tomorrow!" I told them as we went the separate ways to our dorm. I got a chorus of goodbyes.

'Well that went better than I thought it would.' Nova spoke in our heads. 'Yeah! The people from your table that you were talking to seemed very nice' Aira thought. 'Yes, they are. They didn't even stare at us that much while we were talking!' 'I'm not so sure about that, Tara. One of the twins kept eyeing you.' 'Shut up!'

"Oh look! We're here!" Kenna said pointing to the Tibetian monk painting. "Password?" He asked. "Guardians" I told him and he let us through.

"I think we should all get some rest for tomorrow." Nova said, looking at us. There were a lot of nods. I just realized how tired I really was.

As I got in my PJ's and hopped into bed I felt Tryphon come onto the bed and snuggle up to my side. I smiled. Tonight he was a little puppy. I hope I'll be ready for tomorrow.

GEORGE POV:

As we left the girls to go down to their dorms I saw Fred STILL looking at Tara. He'd been doing it all night. Not that he was the only one, but still.

"I think Fred's already smitten." I announced to our group as we stepped through the portrait. He looked up at me, startled.

"It's pretty obvious, mate. You've been staring at her all night. And you hardly talked about Quidditch."

"Shove off George!" He growled at me as he went to bed. I grinned. Completely smitten.

Yay! Not very good, but oh well. Review! Updates soon!
