"Now we just need to wait for three students who is going to pick us up." said Lily as she took out a tiny photo of three Hong Kong students, a pair of twin girls and one boy. They were in the coffee shop, waiting. "I don't really remember their school name.... Mo... mo... "
"Mor-Ai College." said James.
"Oh. Mor-Ai. Kind of funny when you pronouns it." said Lily as she sip her cup of coffee.
"I wonder what kind of magic will they teach. It will be different from the ones we learn, won't it?" asked James.
"I suppose so. I hope we can learn as much as we can. Have you study the Hogwarts' textbooks of this year yet?"
"I've learn all the spells there, if that's what you mean. But I haven't exactly tried them all, as we aren't allowed to use magic."
"Excuse me, are you two the exchange students of Mor-Ai?" asked a voice of a girl. Lily looked. There were the three they were waiting for. All of them have black hair and eyes.
"Yes, we are. We are so pleased to meet you all." said Lily, shaking the girl's hand. Lily was taller than the two girls, but shorter than the boy. But James was the tallest there.
"Hello." said the other girl. "My name is Hoi Nga and this is Hoi Ching. His name is Chang Yu."
"My name is James Potter and this is Lily Evans." James said.
"Let's not act so formal, please! We should go back to out school now or our principal will be upset." said Chang Yu, winking his eye to his classmates. The other two smiled rather mischievously. "Come on!"
***********
"Where are we going?" asked James as they step inside a ferry.
"To our school of course!" replied Chang Yu. He let them to a small wooden door and when they all went it, they found it was another room for chairs. But the decorations are totally different from outside.
"Well, where is it?" asked Lily.
"You'll see." said Hoi Ching as she looked around. She seems to be finding something. "Hoi Nga, get ready."
"All set." said Hoi Nga. She muttered something that Lily couldn't hear.
"Jump everyone!" cried Chang Yu. He pushed James and Lily out of board.
"What the.... ?" said Lily as she thought she was about to feel the cold, dirty sea water. But instead, they were prefect clean and cool. She saw that her three guides also jumped in the water. Lily already touch the sea bed and was surprised that she wasn't dead yet.
"Why stop talking Lily?" asked Hoi Nga with a laugh. Lily was shocked.
"You mean..... I could talk!!!"
"Of course. You didn't lose your voice, did you?" asked Hoi Ching.
"I mean I dunno I could talk in water!!!" cried Lily.
"What have you guys done?" asked James. "Was it a spell you were muttering a few seconds ago?" he asked Hoi Nga.
"Yes. Actually I muttered the spell for you two. We don't need spells to keep breathing or talking in water." Hoi Nga explained.
"You guys don't have wands either!" cried Lily in amazement. The three only shrugged.
"We don't need wands unless for special occasions." said Chang Yu.
"Wow." exclaimed James. "How do you learn magic? Or I should say What magic do you learn?"
"Natural Magic." replied the three in unison.
"What? I've never heard of it before." said Lily.
"Why don't you wait until our Principal, Miss Sui explain, okay? I don't think it is all suitable for us to talk about it." said Hoi Ching. They chat for all the way. Lily and James quickly found that they had found three great friends.
***************
They arrived at a blue building inside a big bubble. Only the shape was a semi circle. When they went in the bubble, Lily found that they didn't even seem to be wet. It was just like outside. There are still birds and grass and trees and insects around. There was even a sun, a sky.......
"Well, there's our school." said Hoi Ching, pointing at the building. "We'll take you straight to the principal's office. Then we will have our dinner." They came to a corridor in a very beautiful blue colour. The texture on the walls were like the waves in the sea......
"Fascinating, isn't it? I couldn't take my eyes off the walls and the decorations around here when I first came. It's the principal's quarters." explained Hoi Nga. They arrived in front of the principal's office.
"Let me give you some advice. Our principal is already about a hundred years old. She's quite touchy about her looks and age. So, don't say anything about her looks." warned Chang Yu as he knocked at large door.
"Come in." said a voice. Lily and James looked in and saw a young beautiful Asian woman sitting there, writing something.
"You two must be Lily and James!" said the young woman.
"Yes." said Lily, feeling a bit shy. "I would like to know when should we see the principal?"
"Now." answered the young woman, looking at the timetable.
"Er.... where is she?" asked James.
"Here." replied the woman.
"Where is she? I can't see her!" cried Lily, looking around.
"How come? You were just talking to her!" said the woman with a laugh. "I'm Miss Sui, the principal of Mor Ai College."
"Chang Yu had tricked us!" cried James half angrily, as he thought of how Chang Yu is laughing behind their backs.
"He said that you are already 100 years old!" said Lily annoyed.
"Well, how old do I look like?" asked Miss Sui, smiling kindly at them.
"I guess about..... twenty something?" James guessed.
"Wow.... that means I'm really getting old." said Miss Sui and she took out a mirror to see herself.
"Twenty something isn't old!" said Lily.
"Not really if you are suppose to be 120 years old." said Miss Sui as she quickly pocketed back her mirror.
"120 years old???" exclaimed Lily and James, shocked.
"Is that really hard to believe?" asked Miss Sui. The two shook their heads. Miss Sui laughed.
"Oh well. I guess I need to tell you all about the school. Actually, Professor Dumbledore is one of my classmates. I studied in Hogwarts too. But I have different ideas in magic so I opened another school in Hong Kong as it is my home."
"Different from Hogwarts, we seldom use wands. In fact, we only teach those we are sure are worth it. Some, with sly and cunning ideas wouldn't have a chance to use wands and I must say that wands can be more powerful and dangerous than our bare hands. But I do not want to create monsters in my school. I've no doubt that in Hogwarts, there is still a house for monsters and devils?" Lily smiled. It was plain that Slytherin was the "devils and monsters" Miss Sui mentioned.
"I dunno if you heard about it or not, but have you heard a name called Voldemort?" asked Miss Sui. Lily shook her head but James didn't.
"Yes," he said in a low voice. "He killed my mother."
"I'm sorry James." said Miss Sui, looking at him sadly. "He is one of the reasons that I started this school."
"Why?" asked Lily.
"I'm protecting my students and also all the witches, wizards and even muggles in the world. Voldemort will know it is hard to find followers in my school as the sly and cunning people that he wants isn't strong enough. If there is students who learn to use wands wouldn't even dream of following Voldemort. You understand what I mean?"
"But, natural magic is one of the most powerful magic if one have the gift. Its power may be greater than the ones by wand. Of course, if you can master both I dare say you will be as powerful or more powerful than Voldemort. I especially asked Dumbledore for the best students he think that is suitable for the education. I'm sure that you two are the best in Hogwarts." she said and the two went red.
"Now then, I especially sent Chang Yu, Hoi Nga and Hoi Ching to pick you guys up so that you guys can be friends. They are the best and talented ones in our school. In fact, I teach them their wand magic myself. I'm planning that you guys can learn something from each other. You will learn Natural Magic from them and they will learn some wand magic from you. But be sure that no one is near you when you teach." she warned. "I will give you a special place to learn if you need."
"Well, I guess it's time for our dinner. I shall take you there myself." said Miss. Sui as she stood up. Lily and James followed her, feeling a bit solemn for the first time in their school life.
