Chapter 2
________________________________________________________________________________________________
September 1st at Platform 9 3/4...
The start of a new school year with returning students walking about and first years ready to attend their first time at Hogwarts. Neither Harry nor Draco had seen each other on the platform as they boarded the train.
On the train ride to Hogwarts...
Harry, Ron and Hermoine found an empty compartment, settle their things in and sat down and began to talk to each other. As Ron was in the middle of his summer story the opening of the compartment door interupted him. All three heads turned towards the door and in walked a asian girl about their age, wearing muggle clothing which consists of blue jeans, sneakers, and a red hooded sweat shirt.
"Um, excuse me but do you guys mind if I sit here, all of the other compartments are full."
"Of course not, have a seat." answered Hermoine. The girl dropped her trunk and sat down beside Hermoine.
"Thanks, I'd been dragging my trunk from the front end of the train, man! that thing is heavy."
"Excuse me but I've never seen you at Hogwarts before are you new here?" questioned Harry.
"Yeah, its my first time attending Hogwarts."
"Oh, which school are you transferring from?" asked Hermoine.
"This is the first time I'm attending a magic school."
"Aren't you a bit too late attending Hogwarts if you never attended a school before?" questioned Hermione.
"I'm maybe a bit late but I had other training to make up for it."
"Oh...All of these questions and we haven't introduced ourselves yet. My name is Hermoine Granger."
"The name's Ron Weasley, nice to meet you."
"My name's Harry Potter."
"Jade Chan, nice to meet you all."
All four teens shook each others hand and began to talk.
---------------------------
It was not long before the train arrived at the station and all students had changed into their robes and were off the train and piled into the carriages and were off to Hogwarts. When they arrived they went to their respected houses and settled in and went down to the Great Hall for the yearly sorting ceremony of the first years. When all students and teachers were seated the head master spoke.
"Welcome back returning students of Hogwarts and to students who are just starting. Another year has come and I hope this year will be a good year like the others. We being now the sorting ceremony like always."
Albus Dumbledore sat back down and the first years were brought in and the ceremony began. Once all students were sorted Dumbledore stood back up to speak again.
"I have a special announcement, we have a new student joining us this year so please give a warm welcome to Jade Chan."
And from the main doors of the Great Hall entered Jade. She walked up to towards the stool, sat down and the hat was placed on her head.
"Hmm...Lets see here, you have the ambition to be the best as well getting in trouble a lot and you're sly and tricky; but you have a huge intendacy of courage and being brave. Hmm, but where to put you? You're equally between a Gryffindor and a Slytherin. Gryffindor or Slytherin that is the question. You also have a unique power within you. Hmm...You're leaning towards........ GRYFFINDOR!"
All the Gryffindors cheered and Jade got off the stool walked over to the Gryffindor's table, sat down while being greeted by her housemate.
"Now all the sortings are done, I would like to say like every year that nobody is allowed to enter the Forbidden Forest unless you would like a horrible death. Another announcement I would like to make is Voldemort as you all know is gaining in power, so this year and hopefully other years to come we have something special for the sixth and seventh years students. We're having a new class in Hogwarts known as Wandless Natural Magic or W.N.M if you want to call it where concepts of wandless magic will be taught to help against war of Voldemort. We're lucky enough to have him teach you all his knowledge of wandless magic and I know most of you will be quite interested in this. So will you please welcome... Neo Evans!"
Everybody was whispering to each other about the new class and most people just couldn't believe one can do magic without a wand. When the name of the new professor was called out everyone's heads were turned toward the main doors but Harry when he heard the name gasp. In walked was a young, very fit man in his early 20's wearing unlike other teachers muggle clothing, a pair of blue jeans, a white t-shirt, along with white running shoes. His heritage as people could see was that he was half English and half Asian, he had dark brown hair and silver eyes. Along side with him was an adult wolf with silver fur and had array of different color feathers sticking out all over its fur coat. Everyone's staring was broken when a voice spoke out.
"Hey! Cous!" It was Jade who was waving her arm. Everyone looked at her as well as Evans.
"Jade? What are you doing here?" Evans looked at her questionly.
"I'll tell you later!"
The guy just nodded and walked up to the teacher's table, turned around and greeted everybody.
"Hello, everyone its nice to meet you all. Next to me is my friend Rumble. I hope we have a great year together."
Then he sat down in a place reserved for him at the teachers table and the wolf sat on the floor next to him.
"And without farther to do, lets eat!" spoke Dumbledore and the food appeared and everyone started to dig in.
---------------------------
At the Gryffindor's table, Harry was having trouble eating.
"Hey Harry, what wrong you're not eating anything." asked Jade.
"Oh, um Jade did you just say that Professor Evans was your cousin?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well I'm not sure if it was coincidence or not but my mum's maiden name was Evans, does that mean we're related somehow?"
"I don't know, maybe we should ask Neo"
---------------------------
After the feast all students were back in there houses except for Harry and Jade who was walking to Prof. Evans with questions that they wanted to asked. As they walked down the hall they bumped into someone that Harry didn't really want to see at that moment.
"Well Potter, what are you doing walking down the hall at this time of night. Showing your girlfriend around?" Sneered Draco as the thought of Harry having a girlfriend stung Draco in the heart.
"No Malfoy, my friend and I, Jade are going to see someone so if you would excuse us." and at that Harry just walked past Draco with a heavy heart with Jade following.
"What was that about?" asked Jade.
"Its nothing." replied Harry.
"You will be in so much trouble for this Potter!" shouted Draco as the pair disappeared down the hall and around the corner. Draco just looked longingly and sighed, as he started to make his way back to the dungeons a voice stopped him.
"Why do you keep doing that if you feel the complete opposite way."
Draco stopped looked around nervous.
"Who are you?! Show yourself!" shouted the Slytherin.
Then out of the shadows came the new teacher Prof. Evans.
"So tell me Draco Malfoy, why do you act like you hate Harry when in reality you love him."
"I don't know what you're talking about!" studdered Draco.
"Oh stop denying it."
"How do you know anyways?"
"I have my ways, I am a magic user of wandless magic you know. Beside I am also a telepathic and empathic as well, I can feel and read your emotions quite well."
Draco just stood there all quiet, staring at the teacher, not knowing what to say.
"If you ever want to talk about it, you know where to find me."
Then Neo just turned around and started to walk and he faded away within a few steps.
---------------------------
Harry and Jade was still walking when...
"Mr. Potter, Ms. Chan. Professor Dumbledore wants to see you two."
Both of them turned around and it was Professor McGonagall .
"Please follow me." the teacher turned around and headed towards the head master's office. Harry and Jade just looked at each other shrugged and followed.
