Ch.2
Stormie and Bradian walked back to the compartment where she had left Melody. She wasn't able to carry everything she wanted to bring back with her, since Cupid was being rather difficult and screeching at the top of her lungs. So Bradian carried her and her cage, and Stormie carried a pack of muggle playing cards and a cat carrier. Once they got to the door Bradian opened it and let Stormie go in first.
"Oh, Bradian, what on earth happened?" Melody had noticed where Rain, mad because she had to stay in her cage for so long, had scratched him on the side of his face.
"It's nothing Mel, that damn cat scratched me." Melody rolled her eyes; Rain couldn't stand Bradian, well who could blame the cat? After all he was the one who decided she needed a bath.
"Here's Cupid, bye have fun. And if you guys decide to play cards," he said to the other three people in the room, "play poker for money, Mel and Storms suck at it." He added with his world famous grin. And turned and left.
"So," came the silky voice of Draco, "Who's up for a little game of poker?"
~*~*~*~*
Melody, Draco, Zambini, and Pansy all had been playing poker for a couple of hours. Stormie had said she didn't have any spare cash and sat with Rain in her lap reading a vary steamy romance novel that she had gotten in a little muggle book shop before leaving Salem. She looked up to see who was winning, she smiled to herself, and Melody was. Melody was an excellent poker player, of course so was Stormie. Brite had taught them. Stormie decided to write Brite a letter as soon as she got to Hogwarts.
"You're a horrible poker player you know that don't you?" Melody looked up at Zambini and put a smirk on that could match Dracos (A/N: author thinks that Dracos smirk is quite sexy, umm.. no more interruptions!().
"I never said I sucked at poker, my cousin did, why you got a problem with that bro?" Stormie couldn't help but smile at the confused expression on Zambini's face at being called a bro.
"Bro?" he asked uncertainly.
Stormie let out a small giggle. "Don't worry about it, it's an American thing. Were not really used to your slang." She said in a matter-of-fact way.
They played a couple more rounds of poker, everyone was trying to win back the money they had lost to Melody, but she ended up with more. All of a sudden the compartment door opened and Bradian was standing there.
He grinned evilly to see they had taken the bait about the poker game. "Hey one of the people in my compartment told me I should come tell you all to start putting on your robes."
He looked at Stormie who was sitting next to her cousin reading. "Storms, why didn't you play? You can beat Mel, so by the looks of it you could beat these three." He earned himself a couple of death glares, but blew them off.
"I don't know, I guess I just didn't feel like playing." 'Why can't he mind his own business?' Stormie thought irritably to herself.
"OK, well see ya when we get to ummmm.. What's the place called again?"
Melody tried not to laugh at her cousin while Stormie rolled her eyes while saying in an aggravated tone "Hogwarts you nim-wit."
After Bradian was gone they all put their robes over their muggle clothes. Stormie put the sleeping Rain into her carrier, praying that bad tempered cat didn't wake up during the process. ~*~*~*~* Stormie stood nervously between Bradian and Melody as Zelder, Corky got made a Hufflepuff. Next it was Melody turn.
"Heartstrings, Melody" came the yell of the stern looking teacher. Melody walked up to the worn three legged stool and sat with the black hat on her head. After a couple of minutes the hat screamed "GRYFFINDOR!" Melody joined the clapping table where Bradian's friend with the black hair sat.
"Johnson, Bradian" said the women, Stormie's stomach did a flop as her brother left her standing their by herself. He too put the hat on his head. After a couple of minutes the hat screamed "GRYFFINDOR!" Bradian took the seat next to Melody's. 'God,' thought Stormie, 'please let me be with Mel and Bradian.'
"Johnson, Stormie" the women said her name and she walked nervously up to the stool. She was vary aware of the eyes that watched her. 'Please don't let me trip.' She thought over and over to herself. Luckily she made it to the hat without falling flat on her face. She sat and the hat was placed on her head.
'Mmmm. What have we here,' said a voice vary close to her ear, 'too smart for Hufflepuff, to brave for Ravenclaw, may be Slytherin?' 'Oh please not Slytherin' she thought. 'Well if not Slytherin than GRYGGINDOR!' the hat yelled the last word for the whole hall to hear. Stormie let out a breath she hadn't realized she had been holding. She walked to where Melody and Bradian had sat and took the seat next to Bradian's friend with the black hair.
"Well its nice of you to join us sis, took you long enough." Bradian smirked at his sister.
"Oh shut up or I will owl mom and she'll come up here and beat the shit out of you, Bradian." Before Bradian could give her any reply a tall wizard with a long white beard and half moon glasses stood and asked for silence, the hall immediately got quite.
"As always, I would like to remind you that the Forbidden Forest is, as its' name implies, forbidden. Mr. Filch, the caretaker, has asked me to inform you that the list of items forbidden in the castle has been extended, the list can be viewed in Mr. Filch's office. Hogsmeade is also out-of-bounds to anyone under third year. And one more thing before you begin to eat, Miss Melody Heartstrings and Mr. Bradian Johnson are in their sixth year; and Miss Stormie Johnson is in her fifth year, they come from the United States, Salem to be exact. Please make them feel welcome. Dig in."
Food instantly appeared on the table. Every one started helping themselves to their favorite food.
"What is this?" Stormie whispered across the table to Melody while eyeing a large bowl of black mushy stuff, which to her amazement a lot of people were eating.
"Search me, I'm clueless." Came Melody's reply as she too eyed the mud like substance.
"Just stick to what you know," Came Bradian's voice from the side of Melody. "See look, chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, things mom makes and we had in Salem." He helped himself to a piece of chicken and some mashed potatoes. Surveying the table quickly, Melody and Stormie began to fill their plates with food that looked similar to food in Salem.
"So, what was school in Salem like?" asked the brown headed bushy headed girl next to Melody.
"Oh, it was fun, we went home on the weekends and had classes during the week, what's school like here erm. What's your name?" Melody answered the girl.
"Hermione and we stay all year, but I guess you already knew that didn't you?" the girl didn't wait for a reply because she started speaking again after a slight pause. "We have a lot of free time on the weekends, no classes, we're allowed to wear what ever we want. Ummm. We have the basic classes, Potions being the worse, and Divination is a load of dragon dung."
"Dung?" Stormie was clueless as to what dung was.
"She means dragon shit, Storms." Melody replied while closely examining a lumpy substance in a bowl.
"Do you have French? How about Spanish, Latin?" with each word and with each shake of Hermione's head Stormie's heart broke a little more. She had all of those classes in Salem. She sighed.
Stormie was called out of her pout when the meal ended by the Headmaster Dumbledore, Hermione had told them who the man with the beard was.
"I would like to introduce the new DADA teacher Professor Addison." A woman with long black hair and a lot of make-up stood up. She was tall, slender women wearing shimmering gray robes.
After that they were brought to their houses, which wasn't that hard to remember seeing how Salem Academy wasn't at all a small school. The perfect, Herimone, gave them the password, dragonfly, and they walked into their common room.
The common room had big, soft chairs and little tables for studying scattered around. Stormie was led up a flight of stairs to a door that said FIFTH YEAR GIRLS. Once inside she saw that there were six four poster beds decked out in Gryffindor colors, red and gold. She went to the one that had her trunk and cat carrier at the end.
She quickly changed into a pair of shorts and a way to big tee shirt that said MOONBEAM ACADAMY QUIDDITCH DISTRICT CHAMPS. She than climbed into bed with Rain and fell fast asleep.
