Chapter 2
Meanwhile, Harry was lying on his stomach in his bed on number four Privet drive. It was only a week before he could spend the rest of his miserable summer with his friend, Ron. He couldn't wait and would wake up in the middle of the night, like tonight and dream about the possible fun. The last time Harry went over to Ron's was a few years ago when he was rescued by him and his brothers by a flying car. After Ron's second attempt at using the phone, he finally got it across that he wanted Harry to spend the rest of the summer with him to Uncle Vernon. Harry sighed, and looked to the owl cage on the other side of the room and to the sleeping owl Hedwig, inside. He smiled slightly, remembering Hagrid, the man who gave him the owl and Hogwarts. He then saw the time, one o'clock, and decided to sleep.
A week later, Harry packed his trunk, got Hedwig and waited outside for the Weasleys. And sure enough, Mrs Weasley with Ron, and his younger sister Ginny arrived in the driveway. Harry waved frantically to the three as Mrs Weasley got out of the car and welcomed Harry with a life-threatening hug. After regaining his ability to breath, Harry put his trunk along with his Broom and other magic accessories, he took a final look at Privet Drive and was on his way to the Burrow, the Weasleys home.

Chow looked from Chan to Lee to see their expressions after reading the note. Lee looked absolutely thrilled for them. London was a very nice place from what she read. Chan on the other hand, looked as if she was just informed that Diabolo was Illegal. She swallowed and stares shakily at Chow.
"Gwa.. Nani!? London? Chow, are you -absolutely- sure? LONDON?" She said, trying best to be calm.
"Yes, Chan, that's what it says. Apparently our parents are moving to London. Show, I expect. But isn't it great? London!" Replied Chow, beginning to sound excited.
"..Peachy." Said Chan, her skin almost leaking with sarcasm. She looked to Lee, who seemed ready to wet herself in anticipation. Chan sighed. She didn't want to go anywhere let alone across half the globe to London. After the opening feast in Shinagawa-Ku, Dimitrik blasted in the common room with a letter from her parents.
"Dearest Ryuji.." She read, muffling her full name so no one could hear it and poke fun. "Sweetheart, Im sure that Chow-Leigh's parents.." She grinned, reading across Chow's Full name. She continued, "already sent you the owl about our plans of London. We told aunt Janet about our plans and we'll be living with her while you and Chow-Leigh are at Hogwarts. Pack your bags, sweetheart, we'll be going in a week. Hogwarts starts on September first. Bye, love!
-Mum"
Chan put the letter in the side of her bed and sighed greatly. But, staying with Aunt Janet wasn't bad, she thought. She's the cool one on my fathers side.. The Irish one. Haven't seen her in a long time. She shrugged, and grinned slightly to herself, falling asleep.
Chan's last name, Dragonflye, was an Irish name inherited from her fathers side. Him, along with Aunt Janet and the rest of the Dragonflye clan were very powerful wizards of Ireland. When you-know-who came around, The Dragonflye's were some of the last be destroyed. Her fathers small family were the few left after you-know-who left. So, the next day the paper work began. Forms of all shapes and sizes and questions came pouring in for Chan and Chow to sign and fill out. Forms for potion ingredients over-seas, pet forms for Dimitrik and an Diabolo release form for each. The students in Shinagawa-Ku wanted their new address to write and send neat stuff by owl. It was a long week, but at the end of it all, Chow and Chan were sort of ready to go. Chan, not liking it much packed her bags and watched Chow pack his merrily. They said goodby to Lee and promised to write her and tell her how great (Or nasty as Chan added) London was and send her gifts and of the like. Everyone's trunk was to be shipped by boat, while everything else were to be flown on broom. The original plan was to use Floo powder however, but Chow found out that he was allergic to the stuff and sneezed, causing it to fly everywhere. They all met on the Dragonflye's front lawn with their broom and each a small nap-sac for the trip. Mr and Mrs Leigh each had a Roaming Cloud6X for a broom while Chow had his Nimbus 2000. Chan's broom was a trusty Speed Demon 763, her parents had Quick Sweepers. Chow couldn't help but notice Chan's outfit and sneer.
"Shut up, my mum made me wear it." She said, indicating her white sweater with the words "I *heart* London!" on it in thick black embroidered letters. "I just barely snook on my "Honk if you love Okonomiyaki! shirt on underneat-" But she was cut off by Mrs Leigh.
"Chow, Darling! We go now, Yes? You Ready?" Chow looked up, and nodded. "3... 2.. 1.. BASTOFF!" They all took off, and were on their way to London.
