A/N Sorry so much for the long wait! I was away on vacation for a week, then my computer when corrupt. Then school and dance began and well I have no life until after dance Regionals (Nov. 24). And those are my dance teacher's words. Well anyway I hope you enjoy it! The romance will come later, soon I promise, but not until about chapter 6. I want to keep the characters in character and develop the plot. Well, enjoy!

Anna noticed something fall off the rock. She bent down to look at it.

'This is odd.' She thought. It was an old wand. Twisted and bent in many places. 'I wonder if it works.'

"Lumos." A great light shot out of the wand. 'Yes, it does work!' She was about to investigate it further when she heard a noise.

"AH!" As Anna turned around, someone fell through the trees.

"Who's there?"

"Anna is that you? It's Katie." A voice came weakly from the bushes. Anna quickly put the wand away and took out her own.

"Lumos." She waved the beam of light over the ground for a while searching for Katie. Finally she found her. "What happened to you?"

"Long story." Katie sighed and tried to move but failed.

"Ok… Well we have a while, why don't you explain." Anna walked over to where Katie was and sat by her.

"Well, when you left, I called your name into the forest. Then your brother came up from behind me." Here she rolled her eyes. "He was leaning on his broomstick, doing that evil smirk of his, acting all cool, and he asked me where you went." Anna laughed. "I told him I didn't know and turned back to the forest, looking for any sign of you. Then when he told me I did know where you were, I turned around and found myself face to face with him. He asked me again. I proudly and stupidly said I didn't know." She faced Anna and shrugged. "I had forgotten how powerful a wizard he was. He grabbed my arm and pulled it and me VERY close to him. It's sad, but I can't say I didn't like it." Anna laughed again. Katie had a crush on her brother in the beginning of the year. "Then he said I better tell him before he did anything rational. I asked him what that would be. He whispered 'Crucio' in my ear with his wand pointed at me from behind with his free hand. Before I knew it, I was on the ground screaming and in much pain. When the pain stopped, I was lying on ground panting with my eyes closed. He came over to my head and whispered, 'Now will you tell me.' I nodded and said you went back to the castle." Anna smiled gratefully. "But then, he just leaves me there and casually says 'Ok, I'll see you around then!' When he was out of sight, I slung myself over my broom and flew out here. I yelled for you, but didn't see or hear you. Over the center, I lost my grip and hear I am." Anna nodded.

"So he just left you there?" Anna asked wildly.

"Yea. He said it like we just went on a date or something. I couldn't believe it." Anna shook her head.

"Stupid brother." Katie smiled and went to get up. Slowly, she rose and grabbed on to a tree for support.

"We should go back."

"Yea." The two girls walked back. Slowly because of Katie's "ailments" as Anna called them. A little from the edge, Anna broke the silence.

"Do you think someone can have two wands." Katie raised an eyebrow.

"I'm sure it's possible, why?"

"Oh, just curious."

"Ok. Is that the castle up there? It looks like it, but it seems awful bright." Anna looked ahead of her.

"Yea, that's the castle. It does look bright, but Fred and George probably did something so that it's bright." Katie nodded in agreement smiling secretly.

"Let's go eat dinner." Katie smiled and the two girls walked up to the castle. Neither noticed the odd snake that seemed to be smiling.

A/N Sorry about this being so short. Other chapters will be longer. I have this all written so I'm using the chapters I wrote in.
