(OK…eventually to humor myself I'm going to post a chapter where it….well it's gonna be kind-a like a dictionary where I'll put in all the British words and then the American words for them…hehe I just think that'd be cool and if you know any words that I should put in go ahead and put them in the review…well on with the story!)
"Ok AJ, what do you need to talk to me about?" Harry asked as AJ sat down at a table outside a small shop.
"Well, it's about Carrie," AJ said running a hand through his hair.
"I guessed that," Harry said joining AJ at the table.
"Ok, I just thought you should know about this since she's gonna be going to your school. I mean it's nothing drastic but sometimes…well…it's hard to explain that part…."
"What she's not a Ware Wolf (did I spell that right) cause if she is we had a teacher once…." Harry began to say when AJ cut him off with a puzzled look.
"No, she's not a Ware Wolf, she's just…well lemme explain it to you." AJ said leaning forward towards Harry and leaning on the table. "I've known Carrie my entire life. She and her parents lived down the street from us and we used to play together as little kids. Then when we went to school we kind-a split up. I mean I began to hang out with these football players and for some reason Carrie began to hang out with the worst kids in the school…"
"Punks?" Harry asked interrupting.
"Heck no! Punks are cool! Besides they looked like angels compared to these kids. Anyway Carrie began to hang out with these bad kids. Her parents didn't pay to much attention to her at the time; I guess that's why she began to hang out with those kids. Then Carrie began to cut class and bet kids up after school. She was acting totally different than she does today. We went to an all wizard school back in America because everyone there were wizards, so no muggles.
"After awhile all of Carrie's friends began to talk about becoming a Death Eater as soon as they were old enough, Carrie even considered it. Then one day I guess she realized what she was turning into and came over to my house and asked me to teach her how to play Quidditch, as if nothing had happened for the past five years.
"We then met Luke in our fourth year at the school we go to back home, and here we are now. I thought you should know cause sometimes she slips back into her old self and can get pretty scary. Like if she gets really mad at you. There was this one kid who got her really mad, I forget how and he was stuck in the nurse's office for a week."
"Wow," Harry breathed. He'd never have thought Carrie had ever been like that before, sure everyone has those years where you just don't belong, but that was pretty extreme. "She's never thought about being a Death Eater again has she?"
"No way!" AJ exclaimed. "No, at our old school if she ever heard about any kid wanting to be a Death Eater she'd go beat the snot out of them. It was weird, she also began to play pranks on her old friends, she was kind-a like a….like a…well like a phoenix, you know? She just decided to start over again and she did. So just be careful about what you talk about around her."
"Yeah, I will, thanks AJ," Harry said in disbelief. "But why is she so nice to everyone?"
"I guess she's trying to make up for all the mean things she's done, so yeah, now lets go on back to the others. AJ said standing up from the table. "Oh and Harry."
"Yeah?"
"You tell her what I just told you and she'll kill me."
"Don't worry, she'll never know," Harry said smiling at AJ. He still wasn't able to believe what AJ had just said about Carrie. She was so nice, and just so happy, it was impossible to imagine her….evil. Just as they were approaching the Quidditch Store two hands shot out of the book store and pulled AJ and Harry in.
"Hermione wanted to go ahead and get her school books and not wait for you guys, I was sent to watch out for you," Carrie said grinning. "So now that you're here I'm gonna go browse the book shelves." Carrie bounded off towards the back of the store.
"Hey wait! Lemme come with you!" AJ called out after her and followed her figure as it disappeared behind some shelves.
"So did you get his money?" Ron asked when Harry found him in the Potions section.
"Yeah we did," Harry replied as he took his bag from Ron. The rest of the time the small group was in Diagon Ally they shopped for school supplies. At one point they ran into Draco again and Carrie was never fazed by his negativity, actually she was really nice to him. Which Harry noticed drove Draco up the wall. Sadly the friends had to part and Carrie and Harry met up with Carrie's mom and piled into the muggle car and drove back to the Dursley's house.
(ok so the ending was kind choppy but hey….i didn't know how it should end and I wanted to finish it. Well…until next time, TA!)
