The next day was mainly dull for the children.

"We have time to go to the forest before the students arrive" Jess said. The others didn't agree.

"No, Voldemort will be really angry. Bella will probably want to get revenge too. It's not safe to go yet!" sighed Neville. Jess slumped back on the comfy armchair by the fire.

"I'm really starting to regret coming here!"

"Me too! It's so boring!" said Ginny sadly. Neville and Harry nodded in agreement.

"It'll get exciting when my good for nothing brother shows up!" Harry was seething. He couldn't believe Dumledore would put them in the safe room.

"Don't do anything you'll regret, Harry!" warned Neville. Harry smirked.

"I won't regret hexing his brains out!" he exclaimed. Neville shook his head.

"When exactly are the students coming?" asked Ginn Se wanted to see her brothers, Fred and George, who were also in their last year at Hogwarts. Neville checked his watch.

"Not for another five hours or so!" Ginny sighed.

Finally when it was time to go to the great hall the gang sat down at the Gryffindor table. Not long after, the students filed themselves into the hall and sat down at their house tables. A girl with bushy hair sat down beside Jess. Unfortunately Mathew Potter and Ron Weasley took seats in front of her.

"Look, all I'm saying Hermione is you could at least help us with potions this year. No doubt Snape still has it in for Mathew!" Ron muttered darkly.

"All I'm saying Ron is, do your own homework!" sh snapped. He leaned back.

"Fine, fine!" Hermione turned to talk to Jess making it clear she was ignoring Ron.

"I haven't seen you before" she said brightly.

"Your Hermione Granger, aren't you?"

"Yeah.." Hermione answered uncertainly.

"We're your new room mates!" said Jess. She pointed to Ginny and then back to herself.

"wonderful, but where are your uniforms?" she asked. Jess shrugged.

"We don't wear uniforms!" she replied.

"Well, the uniforms are compulsory!" her know it all voice rang through Jess' head. Ginny turned to face Hermione.

"Not for us!" she said, smiling sweetly.

"I highly doubt it. Anyway, are those boys without the uniform your brothers or something?" Hermione asked. Jess coughed and laughed.

"What's so funny?" Hermione asked, yet again. She really did seem to be nosy. By this time Mathew and Ron were looking and paying attention to the conversation aswell.

"Do you honestly think those two are our brothers? They have annual wizard chess tournaments!" said Ginny exasperated!

"Oh well how old are you all?" asked Hermione. Mathew was looking at Harry in a funny way. Harry wasn't facing him so Mathew didn't know it was his brother.

"You have a lot of questions. We're fifteen" said Jess pointing to her and Neville, whose face wasn't visible as he was in a whispered conversation with Harry. "He's sixteen" she pointed to Harry. "And Ginny's fourteen"

"Fourteen, how is she in a fifth year dorm then?" asked the very nosy Hermione. But jut then Dumbledore stood up and spoke.

"Let the sorting begin!" he declared. McGonegall came walking in with the sorting hat in one hand and a stool in the other. Following her were a long line of first years. McGonegall set th stool down at the front of th hall and called forth the first child. He tremblingly put the hat on his head and jumped slightly when it began to talk. Eventually he was sorted into hufflepuff. The entire ceremony took a good half an hour.

Dumbledore then stood up and made all the usual announcements. "Let the feast begin!" he shouted once he was done with his speech. Immediately foods of all sorts appeared on the table. The students began to tuck in and it wasn't long before everyone in the room was full. The Prefects led all of the first years to the common room. Ginny ad Jess managed to ditch Hermione.

"God, she asks a lot fo questions!" exclaimed Ginn. The boys nodded.

"We heard.." said Harry. He rolled his eyes and mimed her making the girls giggle. "Uniforms are compulsory you know!" he said in a high-pitched know-it-all voice. Just then Hermione came storming past.

"I apologise for trying to welcome you to our school and stop you getting in trouble!" she sounded offended, hurt and exasperated! She walked on with her head held high.

"I'm going to apply for a new room-mate..." Ginny said. The others laughed. When they reached the common room they went to their separate dorm rooms.

*Boys room*

"Those new kids are freaks!" said Mathew to Ron. Ron nodded like a little obedient puppy.

"Definitely!" he violently nodded his head. Harry and Neville were standing in he doorway.

"Ahem!" coughed Neville. Mathew began to speak.

"Get out of our room!" then he saw the 'new kids'. He smirked. "Aww, are the little first years lost?" Ron laughed hysterically. Mathew just stood smirking.

"Hmmmm, nope! This is our room. Check the plaque! Now, do you not remember us?" asked Neville. Mathew looked at hir faces. Suddenly it dawned on him: his good for noting brother was his new room-mate!

"No way am I sharing with you, freak!" he snarled. "Get out of my room. I'm sure that stupid oaf, Hagrid, has room for you. Oh wait, I forgot. He's too fat to have anyone in his 'house' with him!" he glared at his brother.

"No thanks!" said Harry. He sat down on his bed. Neville smirked and lay down on his own bed. Mathew seemed to have forgotten all about un-packing.

"What's wrong? Need a servant just to unpack your clothes? Man, you really are a stupid, helpless idiot!" said Neville. Mathew was seething by this time and Harry was quite enjoying it. Their other room-mates came in then and Mathew, to save himself the embarrassment of being teased by the new kids, went back to un-packing.

*Girls room*

As Ginny and Jess entered their room, Hermione turned and kept her back towards them. Ginny and Jess ignored her and lay on their beds.

"Don't you have un-packing to do?" asked Hermione lazily. Jess shook her head.

"We arrived a few days early" Ginny explained.

"Hey, I noticed you were talking to 'the boy who lived' and Ron Weasley!" said Jess. Ginny looked up at the mention of her brother. Hermione glared but answered their question.

"I'm best friends with Mathew Potter and... Ron" she emphasised Mathews name and added Rons name at the end, a little dully.

"Why?" asked Jess. Ginny shook her head.

"Because Mathews the 'chosen one' and Ron's a big kiss up! The only reason he's best friends with Mathew is because he adores him and trails after him like a lost puppy" said Ginny. Jess shrugged.

"Oh by the way. I didn't catch your names earlier!" said Hermione.

"Jessica Black"

"Ginny Weasley. The boys who were with us were Harry Potter..."

"And Neville Longbottom!" Hermiones eyes widened in shock. The girls grinned and went straight to sleep.

The next morning te gang met up in the common room. They were wearing their normal clothes and Hermione looked at them disapprovingly. Then she caught up with Mathew and Ron and started whispering to them. Ron looked back at Ginny and his lip curled in anger and disappointment. Ginny ignored this and went to breakfast.

"What do you have first?" asked Harry.

"Potions" said Neville.

"potions!" said Jess happily.

"potions!" said Ginny, grinning. Harry grinned too.

"Same. Come on. Don't want to keep the undead waiting!" he joked, referring to Snape. The others grinned and went to class. Once they were all settled in Snape came bursting through the door. He started talking about a stupid potion that all four of the children already knew. Harry yawned and sat staring blankly at the board. Snape stood angrily in front of him.

"Would you care to tel me why you are not paying attention in my class!" he asked, calmly but something in his voice made him sound nasty.

"Sure. I already know this potion!" replied Harry. He knew this would make the potions master unhappy.

"Well, if you already know the potion, please tell us it's ingredients and it's effects on the human?" he said sternly.

"The huumata potion. It sends the drinker into a trance, stopping them from seeing, hearing or being aware of anything around them. The ingredients are dried and crushed Rutuloo, ants blood, water, a beatles shell and powdered tarantula eggs" Harry grinned at seeing the look of shock and anger on his professors face.

"five points from... whatever house you're in!" just then the bell went. Harry glared at his professor before leaving with the others.

The rest of their classes, none of them in which they were all together, went pretty much the same. Finally at lunch time Ginny saw her brothers, Fred and George. They completely ignored Ron and hugged their sister. "We only just found out! It's great that you're here!" they said in unison. Ginny grinned.

"Plus, I'm in seventh year lessons! We all are!" she said, grinning. The twins looked at each other.

"Blimey!" said George.

"What class do you have after lunch?" asked Fred.

"Herbology!" she replied.

"Darn it!" said George.

"For you maybe. I've got herbology too!" smiled Fred.

"Let me see your time table?" asked Gerge. Ginny dug it out of her bag and handed it to her brother. He studied it.

"Aha! We have Defence against the Darks arts together!" he grinned.

After lunch the children went to their classes. Ginny and Fred ignoring the teacher and talking about the years Ginny was gone. Pretty much the same thing happened in her class with George except Neville was also there.

When school was over they went to dinner and then back to the common room to do their homework. They decided to stay in the castle that night.

Ok, so many you might tell me Fred and George have left school by now, but I decided to change their age. I really want them in the same year as Ginny. Also you may have noticed a few other details that I have changed. It's supposed to be this way. Also, I know my chapter with the Halloween ball is meant to be posted today, Halloween day. But earlier on today my keyboard wasn't working so I couldn't do any work on it and it's already ten past eleven now so it's very unlikely it'll be up today. I am so sorry. I will try to get it posted though! Also please review! THAT'S WHAT KEEPS ME MOTIVATED! Also thanks to all the readers who have stuck by me this far! Thankyou! Oh and by the way: I know Ginny was ten when she let home and the rest of them. 11. I know they ran away five years ago but I did not state the dates. Their birthdays will all be fairly soon. Ginny and Jess' birthdays will be in September. I will write about them in a few paragraphs in chapter eleven. Bye now!
