A/N: Ok guys I am updating all the chapters (ex. Spell checking, adding
disclaimers and A/N's. etc.) and I will be adding chapter ten soon.
Chapter One: The new girl.
Hermione woke up early that day. She was so excited. She'd be seeing Harry and Ron today on the train heading off for Hogwarts. It would be their fifth year and Hermione could not wait. She finished packing up her trunk and took Crookshanks downstairs where she found her mother cooking breakfast.
"What's for breakfast?" Hermione asked.
"Oh...just your favorite. Chocolate Chips pancakes with mint ice cream on top." Mrs. Granger replied. Hermione gave out a scream of happiness.
"I figured you would want it before you left to school." Mrs. Granger said as she smiled at her daughter.
Hermione smiled back as she set Crookshanks on the floor. She sat down and Mrs. Granger put a plate of pancakes in front of her. Hermione turned on the T.V. to see what was new in the news. "A lot of strange things have been happening in London lately. Owls flying in daylight. Strange people walking around with strange looking clothes. We can only guess what all this means." The newscaster said as they showed pictures on the T.V. of owls and strange looking people.
"I wonder why Wizards and Witches are out in the Muggle world." Hermione said as she recognized the people in the cloaks. Her mother shook her head. She didn't know either.
Hermione finished her breakfast and went up to grab her trunk. It was heavier than usual, but of course, the teachers' required bigger books then usual too. She pushed it down the stairs and it landed with a clunk at the bottom.
"Here Hunny, let me put that in the car for you." Mr. Granger said as he picked it up.
"Thanks Dad." Hermione replied. She grabbed Crookshanks and headed out the door.
It took about an hour to get to King's Cross but it was worth the drive. When they got there, Hermione opened the car door and got her trunk out of the car. She grabbed Crookshanks, put the trunk and Crookshanks cage on a cart, and said good-bye to Mr. and Mrs. Granger. She gave them a kiss and headed towards Platform 9 3/4. When she got on, she looked over the heads of the people for Harry and Ron. She felt something tap her on the back she turned around and saw two emerald green eyes starring at her.
"HARRY!" She said as she gave him a hug. Harry blushed a little.
"Nice to see you too Herm." He said smiling.
"Where's Ron?" Hermione asked.
"I don't know he was around here some where." Harry looked around for a red haired boy with freckles. He finally spotted him talking to some girl. Harry went up behind Ron and said, "Who's the girl?"
Ron jumped and turned around. "HARRY! Don't do that!" He yelled. Harry laughed. Ron said good-bye to the girl and headed off with Harry and Hermione.
When they found a compartment Harry asked Ron, "So.Ron who was she?" Ron blushed a little.
"She's.she's my new neighbor. We have been seeing each other for a few months now. She is transferring from Beauxbatons Academy. She'll be sorted tonight along with the first years." Ron said shyly.
As he said this, the compartment opened and the girl that Ron was seen with before walked in. "Hello, Carine. Guys this is Carine Ambre." Ron said as he took Carine's hand. Carine smiled.
"Hello," Hermione said smiling, "I am Hermione." Harry smiled.
"Carine, you are a lucky girl to have Ron. He's a good man. I am Harry.Harry Potter." He smiled again.
"Hello Herm.Hermione and Harry." Carine had trouble-saying Hermione.
"You can just call me Herm. That's what all my friends call me." Hermione said in assurance. Carine smiled.
"What houses are you guys in? I have read all about Hogwarts. Ron tells me he is in Gryffindor. I don't know which one I would want to be in. They all sound so fun." Carine said. She didn't seem shy one bit.
"We are in Gryffindor as well as Ron. Hey, have you read Hogwarts: A History? I have read that book about ten times since I have been here at Hogwarts." Hermione said.
"Really?! Me too! I've also read about all the houses and all the mysteries. Ron told me how in the first year he stopped Voldemort from taking the Sorcerer's Stone. He also told me that he saved his sister in the chamber of secrets and helped Sirius Black get away from the ministry." Carine replied.
"Oh did he? Well did he also tell you that Harry did most of the work?" Hermione asked as she looked suspiciously at Ron.
"No he didn't tell me that." Carine looked over at Ron as well. Ron blushed.
"OK so I didn't do all those things but I still helped.a little." Ron said. They all started laughing.
