Chapter Nine
on the Hogwarts Express)
"What's with the lame owl?"
"We needed to get you to meet us before you do your first prank."
"this better be important."
"How would you like to date the hottest girl in Hogwarts?"
"Angelina said yes?"
"No."
"But we have a plan to get her to say yes."
"Lets hear it!"
"You go out with another girl!"
"You're mental"
"No listen people want what they can't have. When Minnie says no hexing the Slytherins what do you want to do… or when your mom said stay away from us because we were 'bad influences' what did you do."
"I went to your house and we bought dung bombs to set off in Snape's class during the next term."
"Exactly."
"So what girl will go out with me?"
"We have decided to use… plan's'!"
"Who got you guys that upset?"
"This American girl…"
"Is she hot?"
"Why does it matter."
"I can't go out with a girl that's not hot!"
"Yes she is now will you help?"
"Sure but who else will you use?"
"I was thinking Montague and Malfoy"
"Wow I'm I that bad?"
"No it's just we want to make sure that if she doesn't choose you she suffers."
"So now we have to find Montague and Malfoy."
"What do you want Weasley?"
"We have a proposition for you."
"Not interested."
"Not interested in a hot girl?"
"Now Fred maybe American girls with blonde hair aren't these guys types."
"Let me guess…their mudbloods, right?"
"Nope…I think they might be more pureblood than your family, Malfoy" George said
"Of course, that means she might not want either of them…she probably would think she is too good for them"
"She'd be right" Fred said "You know what guys, just forget about it…after all, you already said you weren't interested"
"Now wait one second" Draco said "No one is better than a Malfoy, and if she thinks she is, I'll show her"
"Does that mean you're interested?"
"Where is she?"
"Excellent" George said "Come on Montague are you going to let a fifth year get the girl you could have had."
"Not a chance. Where is she?"
"Two compartments down on the left."
Both Montague and Malfoy walked down and into the compartment where the girls where talking, Lee was already there.
"Susan we have some people we think you should meet."
Susan just flipped the page in the book she was reading."
"Is she ignoring us."
"No it's just the book."
"Oh… how do you get her out of it?"
"Well I could… but Cobane would be so mad…"
"Do it…"
"I could get in a load of trouble"
"You caused a tornado…and you are afraid of getting in trouble?"
"Tornado?" Malfoy asked
"Yeah, you would have had to be there…it was Brilliant" George said
"Alright." Sarah said, and took a deep breath "Uh…y'all might want to stand back"
George, Fred, Stephanie, and Marianna stood back as far as they could
"Why?" Malfoy asked
"Because if you get hit by this wind, I could easily blow you far enough to reach Hogwarts in a matter of seconds"
Malfoy and Montague stood out in the hall outside of the compartment.
Sarah concentrated on a heavy wind, and let her magic out. The book Susan was reading blew out of her hands and out of the compartment, where Draco caught it. He and Montague began fighting over who would return it to her.
"Give me one good reason not to kill you Sarah"
"Fred and George made me do it" Sarah said
"Good reason" Susan said "Now boys…give me one good reason to not kill you"
"You see we figured it was wrong that you didn't know anyone and so we decided to introduce you to three fantastic people."
"Uh… I only see one."
"Oh right … guys get back in here."
Draco and Montague walked back into the compartment. Draco held his hand out to Susan "The name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy"
"Wow… you must really like James Bond."
"Who?"
"Oh some famous person in America."
"Well, forget about him, he is a fifth year. I am Montague" Montague extended a hand to Susan
"Uh… nice to meet you." 'Man he's arrogant.'
"Forget about both of them. They are Slytherins, and there is not a witch or wizard that not gone bad from Slytherin. I'm Lee Jordan, a Gryffindor"
"Uhuh… nice to meet you ." she said slapping his hand in a high five."
"Haha! Victory goes to Gryffindor!"
"Victory?"
"For you to like us" Lee said "See, Fred and George-"
"Are dead meat" Susan said "Look boys, I wouldn't date any of you if you were the last men on earth"
"Meaning…?"Draco asked
"I'M NOT INTERESTED!"
"Look you have to date one of us that's how this goes"
"Huh?"
"Well you see Fred and George kinda put a spell on you that means you have to date someone at Hogwarts"
"Again I say…they are dead"
"So who do you pick… come on you don't know anyone else."
"I'll get to know people"
"Did we mention you have twelve hours?"
"That's it! Sarah, get me a quill and paper!"
"Why?"
"I'm writing to Molly"
"Sarah you do it and you'll regret it."
"Sure Sarah…sell out your only sister…your only chance of ever getting away from William's prying eyes when you start dating"
"Well…it's not like Molly can reverse the spell…and since they are adults, what can she do about it?" Sarah said "On the other hand"
"No, no other hand" George said
"If she can't do anything to them…"
"Reverse! Go back in time…forget that thought!" Fred said
"What harm could it do them, right?" Sarah asked "So…"
"Lizzie, burn that parchment"
"I can control rain" Sarah said "I'd just put the fire out…here Sue"
"You know what never mind..." Susan pulled out a mirror. "Will!... Will I need your help… Fred and George-"
"Stay away from my sister!"
"No, they are staying away, but they have three guys they are trying to force me to date"
"ATTENTION TO ANY GUYS IN THAT AREA…STAY AWAY FROM MY SISTERS!" Will said "There, happy?"
"I will be if you tell Molly the twins put a spell on me that makes be pick a boyfriend who goes to Hogwarts in the next twelve hours…it's a Weasley Wizard Weezey Product"
"deal…and as soon as it wears off…"
"I know, no boys"
About twenty minutes later, the witch with the trolley came to their compartment. "Anything off the trolley dears?"
"No thanks" the girls said
"Wait" Sarah said "I'll take two Chocolate Frogs"
"Sarah, if you think your fat, why do you continue to eat all this junk food?"
"Because it's good and we don't have any of Molly's food with us and I'm PMSing, ok?"
"Wow I did not need to know that." Lizzie said
"You asked." Sarah said taking a bite out of the Chocolate frog.
"GRRRRRRR!! Why is it so hard to find Hermione up in this piece" Susan, who had gone in search of Hermione, said.
"So I heard you were looking for me?"
"Yes I have a problem."
"What?"
"Fred and George-"
"What did they do"
"Well you see…"
"They what… let me think I've got it. What do you think of smart men?"
"Me Gusta."
"Huh?"
"I like!"
"Good now come with me there's someone I think you should meet."
"Who?"
"Nicholas Bloom."
They walked to the other end of the train and Hermione walked into a compartment to later emerge with a seventeen year old boy who was about six- one with black hair (picture Orlando bloom) and blue eyes.
"Nick I'd like you to meet Susan Danforth, the new exchange student from America, well one of them anyway."
"Hello pleased to meet you."
"Yeah back at cha… I mean pleased to meet you too."
For three minutes they stared at each other.
"So do you want to come in and talk… I'm the only one in the compartment."
"Sure… Hermione go find Sarah…she's probably up to something stupid."
"OK"
"So… what classes are you taking?"
"Arithmacy, Ancient Runes. And the usual."
"So no divination?"
"That BS? Hecks to the Nah! I've never met someone who could actually see the future because to that class it's the stupidest crap I've ever heard. Unless of course you like that class in which case its ok just not for me."
"No I don't like it either."
"So what do you think of Quidditch?" Susan asked
"It's alright I can't play but its fun to watch."
"I agree although I think it would be fun to be a chaser"
"Yeah, it would be…so would Keeper"
"Eh… I guess. So what do you think of Hogwarts?"
"I love it"
"That seems to be the general feeling of students. Everyone I have asked said it was a great school, and everyone knows it's the best school on this side of the world academically. Of course if you're looking for a party I always heard it was Durmstrang you wanted."
"So which would you rather have?"
"Academics definitely."
"You sound like Ravenclaw material…that's my house"
"From what I've read I think I would like Ravenclaw although I don't really like the idea of dividing a school it seems like a bad idea."
"You sound like Ravenclaw material…that's my house"
"From what I've read I think I would like Ravenclaw although I don't really like the idea of dividing a school it seems like a bad idea."
"Draxon Academy doesn't divide up their students?"
"No."
"How do they decide where you sleep? Houses sleep together at Hogwarts, though no co-ed sleeping arrangements"
"They divide them up into suites, there are two rooms and a lounging area per suite…eight students to a suite"
"All girls or all boys or is it co-ed?"
"Co-ed buildings, but suites are single gender. Girls sleep on one floor, boys sleep on another"
"Wow and I thought the stairs thing was strick."
"Stairs thing?"
"Yeah, for each house, there is a common room, and a staircase for the boy dormitories, and another for the girls'. If a boy goes on the stairs for the girls' dormitories, the stairs turn into a slide"
"What happens if a girl goes up the one for the boys?"
"Absolutely nothing"
"That's a double standard. Oh well it's against the boys at least not the girls"
Nick laughed "Only a girl would say that."
"Well, I am a girl"
"True… Hey we're about to get to hogsmead. You might want to go to change, pretty as you look, they really want you to be in uniform."
Susan walked back across the train, and when she arrived at the compartment, she found Sarah. Lizzie, Marianna, Anna, and Stephanie already in their Draxon uniforms of a navy blue skirt and a white collared shirt. Lizzie was the only one not wearing a skirt, and she was wearing navy blue pants. They were also wearing their robes, which were purple with silver trim.
"And where have you been Susan?" Sarah asked
"Listening to William."
"You actually listen to him?"
"Someone has to."
"Why? He's the oldest…he is supposed to be ignored"
"I almost feel bad for him and anyway I only listen when I feel like it."
"William says a lot, what did he say that you listened to?"
"getting the spell to wear off at which time I will stop listening to him."
"Who do you choose?"
"Nick."
"Who?"
"Ask Ginny or Hermione I have to change."
Sarah walked out, and walked trough the halls until; she ran into the twins "Hey Fred, George, do either or you know a boy named Nick?"
"Which one… lets see there's. Nott, Gallagher, Bloom…"
"Bingo!"
"The Head Boy? How did you meet him?"
"I haven't…but Susan said that is who she chooses to throw off your spell"
"But he wasn't one of her choices!"
"I believe you had told her she had to date a boy at Hogwarts…yet you never specified who…I'd work on that if I were you"
"Just then Susan walked out in a barely-acceptable length skirt and her shirt that fit perfectly,
"Susan…why are you dressed in something I would expect to see on Kirsten?"
"Either I grew or this skirt shrunk and I would kill you but that would only make me look bad."
"To the cops or to Nick?"
"You chose… now I'm off to meet someone ciao."
"Wait!" Fred called. Susan stopped, and looked at him with a questioning look
"How do you know Nick Bloom?"
"Ask Sarah"
Fred turned to Sarah "Well?"
Sarah put her hands up in a surrendering gesture "All I know is that William will through a fit when he finds out that Susan is dressed like that, and that when I asked her about it, she said to ask Ginny or Hermione"
"Hermione! It must have been her, Ginny wouldn't have destroyed out plan like this."
"Are you sure?" Sarah asked "Even if she thought you figured out who she was dating?"
"Yes…who is she dating?"
Sarah smiled "I know nothing, nothing"
"At least you finally admit it" Lizzie's voice called out from a nearby compartment
"One strong wind, coming up!" Sarah yelled. Suddenly, Sarah's skirt began to swirl around her, as she concentrated on a strong wind.
"Uh…Sarah. I wouldn't do that" Fred said
"Why not?"
"Because Cobane is right behind you" Lizzie said
Sarah frowned, and dropped the wind
"Well, at least you are learning control" Mr. Cobane said from behind her "However, you still are allowing your slightest emotions to control your gift"
Sarah spun around "Doesn't learning control over my gift cancel out not controlling my emotions?"
"No" Cobane said "We can talk about why it doesn't work while you are in detention for the first week of school"
"Detenion?" Sarah asked
"Yes" Mr. Cobane said "You'll be meditating"
"Damn" Sarah said, and stormed in to the compartment that Lizzie was in
(At Hogwarts)
"Alright so you are getting sorted before the first years and not in front of the school… come on we're going to McGonagall's office." Said Nick as they walked up the stairs in the entry way. When they reached the office they were surprised to see Professor Snape instead of McGonagall.
"Professor Snape? I was told by Professor Dumbledore that the exchange students would be sorted by Professor McGonagall?"
"She found herself very busy and so I offered is that a problem Mr. Bloom?"
"Of course not, professor"
Susan glanced at Sarah, who could tell from the look on her sister's face, knew Nick found it a big problem.
"Professor Snape, may I present Susan and Sarah Danforth"
"I actually met them over the summer. I know there guardian he and I used to… work together."
"I'll leave you girls in Sn- Professor Snape's…capable hands" Nick said. He smiled at Susan, and left
"All right this is simple you put on the hat It decides were you should be and that's it no if, ands or buts."
"We put on a hat?" Sarah said "Fred and George said-"
"Don't disappoint me by saying you believed a word that came out of their mouths. Now, which one of you will be first?"
"I'll go." Susan said stepping forward.
Professor Snape placed the hat on Susan's head, and in less than a minute, after complaining about being woken up early, put Susan in Ravenclaw.
Sarah stepped forward, and had the hat placed on her head.
You're almost as bad as Potter was Sarah heard the small voice inside her head Though, not as difficult. You have courage, though not enough for Gryffindor, and brains, but your not quite right for the same house as your sister…I see a thirst to prove yourself in here.
You try being the youngest of three and not wanting to prove yourself! Sarah thought angrily at the hat I was the last to get accepted into Draxon, the last to get my primary gift, the last to-
The hat cut Sarah off You also have the trustworthy and faithful qualities for Hufflepuff
Oh…sorry for yelling
After a few seconds of silence, the hat yelled out…
Alright so we really want people to give us feed back please people. Constructive critisism is a good thing, telling us you like the story is good... we'd even appriciate flames at this point just please review let us know that people are actually reading what we right. Plus tell us were you think Sarah should end up.
