Chapter 10
Sapphire's point of view
"Wait" I heard harry call after me and sick of waiting I turned and smiling walked back.
"You called, Harry?" I asked as sweet and innocently as possible.
"You know my name? How do you know my name?" Harry looked utterly confused like poor professor Flitwick had when I cursed his teacup to copycat everything he said and hid it under his desk. It took them weeks to figure out where the echo was coming from.
Hagrid on the other hand had a playful but warning look in his eyes. The kind of look he got when he couldn't decide whether or not to lecture me or go along with my pranks. But the twinkle in his eyes told me that I was allowed to say whatever I wanted. And he was also curious as to what I would say I could tell because of the way he was slightly leaning in to hear the conversation better.
"How about I answer your questions while we finish shopping am I wrong in assuming you'll be going to Hogwarts with me? As a first year." I wanted so badly to just tell Harry everything outright. But at this point I was afraid of scarring him. Or that he'd run when he found out that I was his sister.
"Okay." Harry said so hesitantly I wanted to hurl. This was my brother and he was scarred to be around me what kind of monster was I.
"But how did you know I was going to Hogwarts?" He asked. Oh so he was only confused the nauseas feeling was slowly leaving me.
"Hagrid." I said and Harry nodded as if that made sense.
We made our way to flourish and Blotts after Hagrid had given Harry the owl and he had thanked him profusely several times. Where the shelves were stacked to the ceiling with books as large as paving stones bound in leather; books the size of postage stamps in covers of silk; books full of peculiar symbols and a few books with nothing in them at all. Even Dudley, who never read anything, would have been wild to get his hands on some of these. Hagrid almost had to drag Harry away from Curses and Countercurses (Bewitch Your Friends and Befuddle Your Enemies with the Latest Revenges: Hair Loss, Jelly-Legs, Tongue-Tying and Much, Much More) by Professor Vindictus Viridian.
"I was trying to find out how to curse Dudley."
"Yes Dudley is an idiot isn't he." Harry had almost forgotten I was there until I spoke. Once he realized what I'd said he got a bewildered look on his face.
"You know Dudley?" then he realized something else, "You haven't answered any of my questions yet."
"No I haven't have I, well the answer is in my name. Harry I am overwhelmingly pleased to meet you my name is Fira.
I'm sorry but I'm about to give excuses but, I know its short but I'm in a play and have various others after school activities. Sorry, please review the more reviews I get the longer the next chapter and the sooner.
