A/N: this is a short chapter. I know. Every even chapter will be a song, sort of a commercial, if I may. Hey, I'm even willing to consider song requests, though I do have the first few planned out, and they will have to match with the story.

"Clark," Martha Kent called as she walked down the porch, cordless-phone in hand, to where Clark was standing at the fence.

"Yeah, mom?" Clark asked as after she said, 'hold on' into the phone.

"A cousin of mine, she needs a place to stay for a few months," Martha said. "I told the lady that called for her that she could stay here."

"Ok," Clark answered.

"You'll have to be extra careful," she told him.

"That's ok," Clark said before she turned and went back inside.

~*~Meanwhile—somewhere outside of Hogsmead, England~*~

"So, where am I being sent, Rena?" asked a sixteen-year-old girl with a crisp English accent and shoulder length unmistakable metallic green hair.

"How do you know you're being sent somewhere, Kat?" Rena asked, another sixteen-year-old girl asked with a light British accent and floor-length slivery blue hair that spread about her as she sat stiff in her ornately carved wooden chair on a raised platform.

The one sitting down, Rena was a very light tan, giving her a strange unnatural look that Kat only matched in her paleness. Her face was hard and uncaring, yet soft and kind at the same time. The other girl, Kat, looked much like Rena, the same cold yet kind face, and the same eerie glow. But her skin was deathly pale and seemed to put off a silvery glow. Both wore low-collared blouses underneath corset tops connected to long flowing skirts, and matching high-heeled sandals. Kat wore dark green and Rena wore dark blue.

"Easy, you never sit stiff like that unless you're sending someone off," Kat pointed out.

"It's only for a few months. I have reason to believe there's a fledging in America, and that Voldemort will be there soon," Rena said.

"Where in America? Maybe I'll be able to do frequent shopping trips," Kat asked.

"Sorry, no shopping trips for you, it's a small town in Kansas, actually it's appropriately named 'Smallville,'" Rena said shaking her head. "But it's right outside of Metropolis, where Tess is going to be for a couple weeks as Lionel Luthor tries to get the company away from us."

"I've been wondering why we've been dealing with him so much lately," Kat stated simply. "So are you going to tell me who the fledgling is?"

"Maybe, maybe not," Rena said happy that she had some secret hanging over Kat for once in a really, really, really long time. "You should start gathering some magical supplies, who knows what potions and such you'll need to make, and you'll need to set aside the clothes you're going to take."

"How long do I have before Tess and I leave?" Kat said interrupting Rena's list making.

"Three days," Rena said standing up and walking down the middle of the long room and out the door at the end, not so closely followed bye Kat. "Today's Sunday, you leave Wednesday, you'll be getting to the place where you're staying by next Sunday."

"Oh, goody," Kat said miserably under her breath.

~*~Five days later—Smallville~*~

"So, what's her name?" Chloe asked for exactly the hundredth time that week.

"Haven't we already gone over this?" Clark asked actually annoyed for once.

"Yes, but I want to get it right for my article," Chloe explained knowing she'd get an answer to her question.

"Her name is Katrina Blackwood, she's from England, she'll be at school on Monday, so if you have any questions just ask her then," Clark answered barely keeping from exploding from the overload of annoyance. "And why are you doing an article on her?"

"Because, it's not a normal thing that we have a new kid at the school that's traveled all over the world, much less live in England quite a bit of her life. That's a big thing around here, no matter how much you delude yourself of the fact," Chloe answered before walking off.

"Whatever," Clark said under his breath before heading off for his next class.
