Chapter Uno * * *
"Ugh! Why do we have to do things the human way? We could have been at Hogfarts..."
"Puck!", Lothlorien interrupted, "How many times have I got to tell you that it is important we learn other forms of magic...no matter how inefficient they are! There's no telling what might happen these days. Now be patient, we're almost there."
Lothlorien Undomiel Gamgee was the sixteen-year-old Elv princess of the Rivendell. Her world at home was falling apart. Elves and other naturally magical peoples and creatures were being robbed of their power.
No one rightly knew who or what was doing it or how, and Lothlorien had been studying witchcraft as a backup incase her natural magic was "stolen." She was extremely cautious and wanted to set an example for the people of Rivendell who shared Puck's opinion of human witchcraft and wizardry. (Which is obviously not a good one.)
Kepuck Galindrel, Puck, for short, was a troublemaker who was constantly in for it with Lothlorien's parents, Lady Arwreniel Undomiel and Peregrim Gamgee, queen and king of Rivendell.
All inhabitants of Rivendell were restricted from leaving but Puck was always out and about, constantly interfering with the lives of humans by playing cruel tricks on them. He caused a great ruckus in the human world that had Peregrim fuming.
Five times had the king confined Puck to the palace dungeon, five times had he escaped, and five times had bounty hunters captured him and brought him back. On his sixth escape and capture, Peregrim had Puck fastened to his arm by a leash of enchanted chains, but Lothlorien freed him while her father was sleeping.
The only reason Peregrim had not done away with Puck was because Lothlorien absolutely forbade it. He figured there had to be some important reason why she liked Puck so much and allowed him to live. After the enchanted chain ordeal, Lothlorien and Puck set out for Hogwarts. (Peregrim gave Lothlorien permission to leave, but he told her her idea would never catch on. The fugitive Puck part was a different story.)
"Puck, will you stop throwing things at people and study!!" Lothlorien said irritated
"NO." Puck replied. He was restless during the entire ride.

Harry Potter was starting his sixth year at Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry after a great summer at the Burrow- his best friend, Ron Weasley's house. During the summer they went to Qudditch games and helped Fred and George, Ron's older twin brothers, with their new product line "Weasley's Wizard Wheezies" They even did muggle things like go to the movies and theme parks.
"Finally we get to see the sorting ceremony and eat at the great feast together, peacefully. It'll be the first time in...how long has it been?" Ron asked.
"I don't know. I'm just glad things are finally going to be normal around here." said Harry. They entered the Great Hall and the enchanted ceiling reflected a clear, placid blue sky.
"That's a first!" Ron exclaimed. Harry, Ron and Hermione sat at the Gryffindor table and peeked around.
"I wonder who will be the defense against the dark arts teacher this year." said Hermione.
"It'd be nice to have Professor Lockhart back..."
"Oh! Please, shut up now!" Ron barked. Harry made a disgusted face.
"Here come the first years!" Seamus Finnigan shouted. Professor McGonagall led the smiling first years up the hall to the stool on which the sorting hat was placed.
"The sorting ceremony begins!" shouted Professor Dumbledore.
The sorting hat sang its corny little song and the cheerful, young first years took turns wearing the hat in alphabetical order. When the last three students were yet to be sorted and Gryffindor had five new house members, the thunderbolt hit Harry -- through the doors came the strangest looking (yet oddly beautiful) girl he had ever seen. She had striking blue eyes that shone through her straight, long, black hair and she had a distinct regal bearing. She wore the black Hogwarts robes and a diamond nose ring. She was just about five feet tall. Harry watched while Professor McGonagall went to meet her and proceeded to lead her to the sorting hat.
( Of the last three kids that were sorted, one went to Slytherin and the other two, Hufflepuff. ) Everyone watched silently as the sorting hat was placed on the strange girl's head.
Minutes went by and the sorting hat was mumbling to itself. After about fifteen minutes the hat said "Gryffindor", and Professor Dumbledore got up and shouted "Let the feast begin!" and the students immediately began to eat and make noise.
After the feast, Professor McGonagall handed out the course schedules. "Well, dear, it seems you're to be with the sixth years. Oh, and as you requested, you've been given your own room." she said, as she handed Lothlorien her schedule.
Shortly afterward, the students were sent up to their houses. When the prefect opened the portal with the password "bed knobs and broomsticks", Lothlorien went straight up to her room which was furnished in the Elven style.
"Ahhhhh." Lothlorien said, after she threw herself on her new and very comfortable bed. She stared at the ceiling and thought. Just as she was about to fall asleep, Puck burst in.
"HEY!" he shouted. Lothlorien leapt up startled. "You should've been in the common room with the rest of the kids! It was great! There was this genius of a lad after m' own heart! He was feeding these wee orange salamanders enchanted fireworks and they were flying around the room with little sparks flyin' outta their mouths! It was great! I think his name was Weasley 'er somethin'. Hey!....."
"UGH!" Lothlorien beamed a pillow at him. "Couldn't you see I was sleeping? You better not have let anybody see you!" She scolded loudly. They spoke in the Quenya Elvish language.
"Gees, Lolo, I was just watching! Can't I at least do that?" Puck asked.
"Hmph! Next thing you know you'll be "watching" here and there and then playing pranks here and there and then traumatizing people HERE AND THERE and Dumbledore'll have to get rid of you, and back to Rivendell you'll go! Next time Papa sees you I'm sure he'll kill you. You can only push people so far! So NO getting out of hand! We don't need the Woodhall guards hearing of 'Puck Sightings.' Can't you just go a few months without playing a prank?" Lothlorien asked.
"No, I can not stay cooped up, hidden from the world for 10 months and not goof around. What are you trying to do to me? It's enough that I have to be invisible most of the day and you just want to stop me from having fun! HA! You think you're so perfect! You want to goof around as much as I do deep inside! You might have stronger will power than I do but you still have the WILL! You.....OUCH!"
Lothlorien clogged him on the head.
"That was uncalled for! You're a freak! You're like Jekyll and Hyde! You got half your mother's brain and half your crabby father's! One second you're sweet and the next....."
"SHUT UP AND GO TO BED!" Lothlorien interrupted. Puck made faces at her behind her back and mumbled himself to sleep. Believe it or not, they were best friends.
