After dinner the three girls headed up to bed. Mina and Serena were soon
asleep on their sleeping bags while Hotaru sat on her bed looking our the
window at the moon. It was full. Taking out a notebook and quill pen from
her desk she started to write.
'Dear Grandfather,
I'd love to come to Hogwarts. I can't wait to get there and see you! I'm not exactly sure what to say, but it'd be a pleasure to learn the magic that has been in my family so long. You told me Harry Potter had come to Hogwarts? I can't wait to meet him. And let me guess, this Draco Malfoy will also be there. I must say goodbye now, because I'm so tired. We're leaving for England tomorrow and I need rest. Look at the moon tonight and think of me. Love you,
Hotaru.'
She got up and opened the window. Fin landed on the sill and gave a quiet hoot. /Your message?/
"Hai." Hotaru leaned down and tied it onto her friend's foot. "Be careful with this."
/I will/ Fin lifted off. /I shall see you later, in England/ She flew off into the night, disappearing into the starry quilt of sky.
"Ja ne Fin." Hotaru called softly. Turning she got into bed and fell asleep. Her dreams were filled with what she'd do at Hogwarts.

~Four days later~
"Diagon Alley was awesome!" Mina giggled waving her wand. She smiled at Serena.
"Hai!" (An: I didn't want to do Diagon Alley cause most people do that, and I'm also lazy.)
Hotaru smiled as she sat down in the chair in the hotel. She held her broom close to her chest. Fin sat on the top of the chair watching over the three girls while the older outers were out doing something.
"We leave in like half an hour and their not here!" Serena squeaked.
"Don't worry, we're here!" Setsuna from the door. The girls got up and ran over to hug them. Hotaru threw herself into Haruka, who swung her off the floor into her arms.
"Papa!" Hotaru squealed. Haruka laughed. She put her back down.
"We got some stuff for you three." Setsuna said. "Sit down so we can give it to you." Serena and Mina complied right away, while Hotaru was reluctant to leave her mama and papa. (An: She grew up with them as her parents. And remember she never had a mother, so you'd think she'd be a bit clingy.)
Finally joining the others on the bed, they all listened to the outers.
"Well, we went shopping and picked a few things up for you." Michiru said. Getting out a bag she handed it to Mina. "This is for you." Serena was the next to get hers, and Hotaru after her.
Mina opened hers. "Wow. Thanks!" She pulled out a bunch of candy, a diary with a heart on the front, a dozing crystal, and a pack of candles. Serena grinned; she had candy, herbs, a diary with an angel on it, and a teddy bear.
"Thank you, papa, mama, Suna!" Hotaru pulled out a chunk of chocolate, a diary with symbols of chaos, darkness, silence, and balance on it, also a book with a cloak, and book with a key on it. "What's this?"
"It was your mothers" Michiru said. She smiled. "We need to go."
The three girls nodded and followed Setsuna out of the room. "Hotaru." She stopped and waited for Haruka and Michiru. "We have three more things for you. One is this." Haruka handed her a photo album with the first page filled with photos of all the scouts.
"And this." Michiru handed her a camera. "Finally." She handed her another book. "It's filled with spells and the history of your family."
"Thank you." Hotaru said throwing herself at the two. Haruka and Michiru hugged her fiercely.
"Come on, hime." Haruka said pulling her towards the door.
*******************************************************
The train station of crowded so Fin stayed on Hotaru's shoulder. She didn't mind, for the young one wasn't that bad a walker. She was a much better flyer though, at least she though Hotaru would be.
"This is the portal." Setsuna said. She started up to the wall and went right through it. Mina gasped and ran right through after her. Serena did to, she couldn't wait to see what was on the other side.
"Oh my god." Hotaru said with a grinned. "Hold on Fin." She ran after them.
"Come on Haruka." Michiru pulled Haruka after her. Of course, Haruka was the one stuck with the bags. She groaned and grunted under the heavy things.
"I think they did pack the kitchen sink."
On the other side of the wall was the most amazing train. Hotaru hugged Serena and Mina. "We are going to have so much fun!" They all laughed.
Setsuna cleared her throat and the girls sobered. "I want you all to promise to be careful and mind the rules. Hogwarts will have two kinds of people, friends and enemies. Try to get more friends. I will miss you all. Ja ne, for I will visit when I can."
"Ja ne Suna-san." The three girls said. They hugged her and she stepped aside. Michiru went up to them next.
"Listen, you must be careful, understand. Goodbye." She said hugging them. She gave Hotaru and extra long hug. "I'll write everyday." She whispered in her ear.
"I will to." Hotaru said back.
Haruka grinned at them. "Ja ne." She said and hugged them. "I'll miss you dumpling, hime. You too blonde." She winked at them. "Taru, I'll miss you. I love you firefly."
"I love you too papa."
The outer hugged them again and by the time they were boarding the train, everyone including Haruka, was in tears. The girls waved from the windows. "Bye papa, mama, Suna!" Hotaru yelled from the windows.
