Chapter Nine; Witches and Wizards And Magical Creatures Association
I'm sorry to hear about that, and she isn't physically trying to hurt him, she's doing it emotionally and taking advantage of him, pretending that she's in love with him when all she really gives a damn about is his money. Yeah, she's worse than Brittany. Anyway, I'm hoping to get to be able to get a chance to prove to him that she's wicked and he deserves better. And no I'm not in love with him, I'm already with someone else, but that doesn't mean that I don't love him as a friend, and I really don't want to see him get hurt. Anyway, enough about me. Enjoy the next chapter!
The next morning after their flight, Annabelle drove her niece and nephew down to the train station. "You know," Teddy began. "there is one thing that I don't get. If we aren't witches and wizards, then how are we going to get through the barrier?" he asked. "I don't know, there isn't even any of them here at this time of year to follow one inside. They're already at school." She said as all three of them walked around the corner and that's when they stopped dead inside their tracks. Annabelle's jaw dropped as she caught sight of the famous Harry Potter standing in front of her.
"You're Harry Potter." She said with disbelief. "Yes, and you must be Annabelle." He said as he smiled back at her. "That's right, and this is Teddy and Nora." She said as she gestured her hand out to her niece and nephew. "I've got to say that it's a real honor meeting you." Teddy said as Nora smiled before she turned her head back over to her aunt. "He's even cuter than I thought." She whispered unaware that Harry could hear her.
"I know," he began with a laugh. "I've been expecting you. Follow me, the train is this way." He explained as he ran straight towards the barrier between platforms nine and ten. "Are you sure about this?" Nora questioned. "No, but if Harry says it safe, then it must be." Annabelle answered. "Aunt Annabelle's right, Grandmother and Grandfather are counting on us." Teddy said as all three of them grabbed ahold of each other's hands. "Alright on a count of three." Annabelle began. "One,.." she said. "Two,.." Teddy continued. "Three!" Nora finished as all three of them raced inside the barrier and passed straight through.
"Well done." Harry told them as he was there to greet them on the other side. "Now follow me onto the train, some more of the WAW and the MCA members are already aboard." He explained. "The what!?" all three of them cried together. "The Witches and Wizards and the Magical Creatures Association." He clarified. "I train witches and wizards that for some reason or another have decided not to be trained by the Hogwarts professors, but I also train aliens, werewolves, and zombies to take control of their powers. Although I've got to say that this is a first for me since I never trained a killer doll family before." He explained as he led them onto the train.
Annabelle found a seat by the window and Teddy and Nora sat down next to her as Harry faced the compartment full of passengers. "Umm excuse me, may I have your attention please?" he asked as everyone stopped talking and looked up at him. "Right, so in a few hours we should be at Hogwarts. When we get there I'm going to divide everyone up into groups, you'll be staying in special dormitories based on which group you're in. Also bear in mind that this time of year the school is very busy with different classes going on, so anyone caught disrupting them or not following the rules will be reprimanded and dealt with appropriately.
Also, take note that our special classes will be taken in the room of requirement." He explained. "Thank you." He said before he left their compartment and went to the next one to explain the same thing that he had just told them. As soon as he had finished talking to everyone else he made sure that the doors slid shut tightly and the train began to move. That's when suddenly the chatter started to filter again. "Aunt Annabelle, what will Harry actually teach us?" Nora asked her.
"I don't know," she began. "I just hope that he can help us before Uncle Jack finds me." She answered. That's when suddenly a girl from another compartment went and sat down next to her. She had dark brown hair and light blue eyes, with a cream peached colored face. "Yikmana." She said happily. "Excuse me?" she questioned. "Oh I'm sorry, I forgot. You'll have to forgive me, I'm not generally used to speaking English. My name is K234." She said. "Uh, huh,.." Annabelle said with uncertainty. "I'm from the planet zytog in galaxy two billion." She explained. "So, you're an alien." Annabelle realized as the girl nodded.
"That's funny, you look just like us." She said. "That's because I can take the shape of anything or anyone on this planet." She explained. "But don't believe what you see in the movies, we're actually really friendly creatures once you get to know us." She explained. "So K2, how exactly did you get here?" Annabelle asked her. "My parents forgot me when they tried to take over the world." She answered. "They weren't actually so nice. Anyway that was fifteen years ago, and so I was able to have a normal childhood and go to school like everyone else. That's where I learned English." She told her.
"No offense, but how could you have a normal childhood with a name like that?" she asked. "Oh my adoptive earthly parents named me Clarisse." She answered. "But I like to be called Claire." She told her. "Nice to meet you Claire, my name is Annabelle and I have a sister who was adopted. I used to be a doll, and so did my brother." She explained. "I know, Harry told me all about you. Plus I am a big fan of your father's movies." She told her as Annabelle started to daydream about her father. "Are you alright?" Claire asked her. "Yeah, I'm fine." She answered sadly.
When they had gotten to the school, Harry divided them up into groups just like he said they would. "Now, what am I going to do with you three?" he wondered aloud to himself. "You guys are pretty much in a class all to themselves." He said. "They could be with me and Liam." Claire suggested as Annabelle quickly turned her head over to her and saw an attractive older boy standing next to her with long brown hair and a short whiskery beard.
As their eyes locked onto each other they had figured that they were thinking exactly the same thing about one another. "Alright, very well then. You three can go with them." Harry said. "And you better get a good night's rest because I'm planning on a very early start tomorrow." He told them before he headed off to his dormitory.
