Chapter 6 - Is It Fate? Is It Heaven? Or Is It Hell?

Harry woke up the next morning to find Hermiome still in Ron's bed, luckily none of the bedclothes had come of during the restless sleep they had last night.

Harry looked at his watch and it read 10.01am. Harry trudged downstairs hoping he didn't miss breakfast. He walked to the dinning room passing 7th and 8th graders as he past, because the school had grades from 1-9 they have meals separately in 2-3 grades at a time. The 6th graders theirs with the 5th graders and the 9th had them alone.

In America they did not have O.W.L.s but a exam called the GRUFFS (General Reward Foundation of Freaks) according to Tahli the man that invented the GRUFFS was forbidden to take his because he was not a descendent of any magic. He was only a muggle that bribed the magical people to let him learn magic or he would blow their cover. He had proof of his tales so the magic kind were afraid and agreed. He then bribed them to let him make the exams and got very rich doing so. Anyway back to Harry. Harry walked past two girls sitting in the hall studying for their GRUFFS, they had an exam waiting for them inside the classroom but each student was to go in seperatly, Harry remembered the time in his 3rd year exam for Divination and how his professor had a prediction.

Harry made it to the hall easily and found the food was still out, he grabbed a choc chip muffin and looked around for Tahli but she was nowhere to be seen so Harry spotted a seat next to a dark skinned girl with blonde caramel hair.

"Hey!" The girl said, "Do you want to sit here?"

"Hello, I'm Harry!" Harry smiled and sat down.

"Oh i have heard of you! Arry Peter?" The girl asked

"Yeah but no its Potter, that's all." Harry explained as he bit into his muffin.

"Sho where you froshm?" He said with his mouth full, he swallowed "Umm...sorry bout that am really hungry!"

"Its ok," The girl laughed. As she did Harry remembered that he had not asked her name!

"What's your name anyway?" Harry asked

"My name is Halitona!" She said

"Pardon me but wa?"

The girl laughed "That's what everyone says, well you see where i come from they have another language. Halitona is Gongrato for Anna."

Harry took another bite of his muffin but before speaking he swallowed "So where are you actually from?"

My family and I come from a place called Gongrat but when i was offered a place here they moved to New York City, Mumma hates it there but she says she wants to be close just incase. She is a bit of a fussy person."

"So...what do you want me to call you? Halitika or Anna," Harry tried pronouncing the name and the girl just laughed.

"Very nice Arry!" She laughed harder "Just call me Anna, my parents pronounce it Ar..nar but they normally call me Halitona!"

"OK Ar...nar what are vwe doing todaya?" Harry laughed mixing many accents into the sentence.

"Vwell we are just staying at sch..oo..l!" The way she spoke so neatly shocked Harry in a way he had never felt before he was...NO he wasn't no not at all he knocked himself into the real world.

"Th...tha...that s..s..sounds great," Harry smiled weakly "Please excuse me i have to go!" Harry stood up but before he could leave Halitona or Anna or whatever grabbed his arm...

"But you haven't even finished your muffin!" She argued

Harry picked up the half-eaten muffin "I'll have to take it with me then bye!" He walked hastily towards the door but as he did he heard the girl say something under her breath that sounded like a 'Seeya around' he didn't bother turning around. In the hall he bumped into someone and when he looked up he discovered it was Tahli.

"Hey there! Where you off to in such a hurry?" She stroked his face

"I umm...have to get something from the dorm." He thought quickly

"OK, you fell a bit unease." Tahli's eyes wondered

"Yeah i am a bit you know just thinking about things," As he said that many bad things flooded back into his memory, his mum and dad, Cedric Digory, Voldermort and worst of all Ginny. Although Ginny was still alive he thought hard sometimes of what it would be like if Harry hadn't got there in time.

"Hello Harry?" Tahli was tapping him on the shoulder "Anyone home?"

"Oh sorry!"

"Where were you space?" Tahli giggled

"Yeah something like that, listen i have to go so I'll see you soon," Harry wondered of in the totally wrong direction, he had to think. He went up to the roof where many owls were perched sleeping. He sat dangling his feet over the edge of the building thinking bout what had just happened. He felt something between himself and the girl but he didn't know what it was because he liked Tahli so much. Then again this something between them was somehow different in many ways than when he first meet Tahli. After about an hour Harry was about to up and leave when Ron sat next to him.

"Hiya!" Ron said in a low voice "Tahli told me you were acting weird so i came up here." there was no reply "Wanna tell me what's up?"

Before Harry could think he told Ron everything! "And so yeah i don't know what to do about it,"

"Man you're in Heaven!" Ron elbowed him sheepishly "Man two chicks after you who are both good looking and that!"

"Or Hell!" Harry disagreed with Ron about this being any good cause the way Harry's mind was going it was going to be so hard seeing they still had another month in the USA.

"Maybe its just fate," Ron shrugged "Its either Heaven, Hell or fate and its up to you to decide which!" Ron got up to leave.

"Don't tell anyone!"

"I won't, you can trust me!"

"And that include Hermione!"

"As if i would tell her!" He said sheepishly

"After last night i thought you two would be really open in a relationship." Harry grinned

"Yeah well..." Ron went all red "It was just a bit of fun you know a make out."

Harry got up and they both walked to their class together.
