Lyric's Serenity
Disclaimer: None of the Harry Potter characters belong to me...Trust me, its depressing.
This story is based on year two for Harry, Ron and Hermione. It has a character that I
created named Lyric, the story is different from what happens in the second book though. And things
are going to work out a tad differently with Ron and Hermione...

Lyric ran a brush through her auburn hair, looking in the mirror she took the black eyeliner
off from under her abnormal eyes. She studied them as the changed from the teal color to the ice blue.
They did that a lot. She stood and started putting her black school robes into her suitcase, followed by
the books her parents had bought for her for each of her new classes. Her supplies consisted of Three
sets of plain work robes (black), One plain pointed hat (black) for day wear, One pair of protective
gloves (dragon hide or similar), One winter cloak (black, silver fastenings). The Books were as
followed: The Standard Book of Spells (Grade 1) by Miranda Goshan, A History of Magic by Bathilda
Bagshot, Magical Theory by Adalbert Waffling, A Beginners' Guide to Transfiguration by Emeric
Switch, One Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi by Phyllida Spore, Magical Drafts and Potions by
Arsenius Jigger, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander, and, Break With a Banshee, Gaddling With Ghouls, Holidays With Hags, Travles With Trolls, Voyages With Vampires, Wandering With Werewolves, and Year With the Yeti all by some guy named Gilderoy Lockhart. She frowned as she tried to calculate how much the books and such would weigh. Luckily she wouldn't have to carry them to whatever room was decided for her. She finished loading the rest of the supplies that she had needed to buy from Diagon Alley. These didn't weigh as much as the large books. It was just the wand made for her, 1 cauldron (pewter, standard size), a set of glass or crystal phials, a telescope, and a set of brass scales.
She couldn't help but laugh as Magic, her black kitten jumped onto the bed and then into her
cauldron. This was her first year at Hogwarts the school for witch craft and wizardry. The letter had
come in the beginning of the summer. It had given her parents a small scare but they just gave her
money and had her driver take her were she needed to go. They were to busy for her anyhow.
Lyrics parents were, what the wizard world would call muggles. And they weren't exactly
poor. But both of them being in the travel business, they generally didn't have a lot of time for their
only daughter. They liked to show their love through money. Give her whatever she wanted and the
problem was done with. Who cares if she did everything in her power for a 'I love you' or 'Wow those
are great grades'...
Lyric sighed and put her bags next to her door. She sat on her bed and picked up a book
she had bought from Diagon Alley, so she could study the world she would be living in for the next
seven years of her life. Magic padded at her book page and Lyric smiled. Leaning back on her bed she
didn't even remember falling to sleep.
(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)
Lyric woke with a start and looked around the room. Almost day light, but that haunting
dream. Someone-no-something had been pointing a pale white bony finger at her. She shivered and
looked at the bottom of the bed were their was something warm on her feet. Magic was laying on her
back, stretched over Lyric's feet. She gave a jump as the alarm on her bedside table went off. Time to
get up she groaned sleepily standing at the side of her bed she hit the alarm forcibly and walked to
the bathroom. She showered quickly and brushed her teeth. Then put on her makeup (Black eyeliner,
and clear lipgloss), then finished putting some of the bathroom necessities in a small bag to take with
her. She slipped into a pair of jeans and a black tee-shirt. She heard a knock at the door to her room
and opened it to see Alex, the drivers son who was her age, smiling.
"My dads waiting for you downstairs, he said he didn't want to get stuck in traffic...So he's
ready to go when you are Lyric" She smiled and grabbed what bags she could pick up.
"I'm already. I just need help with those books...Oh!" She looked surprised and she turned
back to her room dropping her bags. Alex looked a bit startled. Magic looked at Lyric, she was sitting on top the bed and looking at her owner as if she would forget her head if it weren't connected by her neck. She picked up the bag that had the cat supplies and the kennel that would hold Magic on the train to school. She picked Magic up and put her in the kennel. Alex looked as if he were going to laugh but he held it back. They had been best friends since forever and could usually talk freely about anything.
"I still can't belive that new school of yours lets you take animals. Where is it again?" He
asked picking up the bag of books. His brow furrowed as he felt the weight. "Bloody...." His sentence
was cut short as his father walked into view.
"I'll help with those bags Miss.Conner." Max, Alex's dad said giving his son a dirty look.
Alex blushed.

Lyric walked through the portal that lead to the bus, 9 3/4. It was a funny feeling walking
through the wall it sent shivers up her spine. She looked around at her surroundings with a quick
glance. People in weird clothing were walking up and down the lanes, hugging and saying things to
inspire their children. She ducked under a sign and climbed aboard the bus without a word. Finding a
empty seat, thanks to the fact that most people were still out and saying their farewells. She shut the
door and leaned against the seat. Pulling out the book she had been reading last night and started
reading.
"Oh. I'm sorry I thought this seat was empty." A small red headed girl with freckles appeared
in the door way.
"No its fine really." Lyric smiled and moved her things. The red headed girl smiled.
"Do you mind if me and my friend sit here? It's my first year, and her seconded..." She
looked around. "My brother seems to have disappeared with his friend Harry." Saying this name she
blushed a little.
"Sure, be my guest." Lyric smiled and moved out of the way for them to enter. The red head
smiled and moved out of the door way. A gold amber head followed with a smile. "Names Lyric
Conner."
"Oh so sorry. Ginny Weasley." The red head responded.
"Hermione Granger." The older girl with amber hair answered sticking out her hand in a
formal way of introduction. Lyric took it gently and let go. "Whats that your reading?" She asked
curiously. Ginny was putting her things under her seat.
"Sonnets of a Sorceror. It's the first wizard book I've read." Hermiones eyes lit up.
"Your born to muggles?" She asked, Lyric gave a nod. "I'm too." Ginny was now paying
attention to the conversation with interest, much like her father would. Ginny having lived in the wizard
world her whole life.
"Maybe you could fill me in on the whole thing?" Hermione gave a nod just as Ginny gave
a groan.
"Don't look now but here comes Malfoy." At the end of her sentence a blond boy with
piercing blue eyes entered.
"Well if it isn't the mud blood and the Weasly." He said nastily looking at Hermione and
Ginny with intense dislike. He didn't seem to even notice Lyric sitting in the corner. "And wheres your
boyfriend Weasly? Famous Harry Potter miss the train?" He scowled and the two cronies behind
him laughed.
"Bet your fun to live with..." Lyric mumbled under her breath. Molfoy spun around and
finally noticed her. His brows her furrowed in anger of the remark. Ginny was stifling a laugh, and
Hermione looked between a mixture of anger and sadness at the boys name calling. Molfoy looked
Lyric up and down then straight into her eyes.
"You must be a first year." He said with a venomous tone of voice.
"Wow how observant." Lyric said sarcastically rolling her eyes. Molfoy's eyes, if possible,
became colder.
"You must be a mud blood too then because you have no clue who your talking to." Molfoy
scowled.
"Enlighten me." Lyric shot back, stifling a false yawn. Ginny was red from holding her
breath so that she wouldn't burst out with laughter and even Hermione was regarding Lyric with a
smile. The two large boys behind Molfoy were looking somewhat confused at her lack of fear. "You
two should take a brake, to much thinking and smoke will be coming out of your ears." She nodded to
Molfoys gang.
"You'll see soon enough...Sorry didn't catch your name?" Molfoy looked as if he had calmed
himself, and was looking at Lyric with new interest. Somewhat as if she was a new experiment, or a
challenge.
"Lyric Conners, and you?" She was still leaning against her seat relaxed as if nothing had
happened at all.
"Draco Molfoy." His eyes narrowed once again as he looked at Hermione and Ginny and
then walked out of the door way, and back to the hall. His followers looked at him curiously.
The rest of the train trip went by quickly and all three of the girls went to change their robes
an hour away from the castle. They had also talked about Hermiones first year at Hogwarts and
bought handfuls of treats from the trolly. Lyric still had a velvet pouch filled with the many coins used
in the wizarding world. She also had her own bank account at the wizarding bank 'Gringotts'.
Ginny walked with Lyric to the boats where they would be taken to the School after saying
a quick goodbye to Hermione, who was to go the the carages lead by invisible creatures.
(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)
Ginny and Lyric waited in the hall way as a female teacher gave them a briefing of what was
to be expected of them. She introduced herself as Professor Mcgonagall, the Transfiguration
Professor, she had chestnut hair with grey wisp up in a tight bun. Her eyes matched her hair and they
were stern, but seamed to have a bright life in them that meant she had heart.
They were then aloud into a bright room with life like stars on the ceiling. Lyric almost ran
into a other student as she absently took in the place, as if she were memorizing it all. If it wasn't for
Ginny, who pulled her back just at the right time she might have run into more then one . Lyric was
only half listening to the older man talking in front of her with the snow white hair and beard that went
down to his hips. She saw one empty seat a few places away from...Professor Dumbledore, the man who had said he was the headmaster. Lyric guessed that was a fancy word for Principal. She was
startled as names started being called out. At least twenty people went in front of her, sat on a stool,
put a old hat on and had a name called out. Either Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw.
Then she heard her name being called. She stepped up and sat on the seat in front of the large crowed.
She closed her eyes as the hat slipped over her ears and thought about her empty room, no one was
there, she was alone, she couldn't stand large crowds of people looking at her...It gave her the
wiggins.
She barely heard what the patched black hat on her head called out. The house she would
be in for the rest of her school days. She walked to her table her black robes flowing with her hair. Her
teal eyes searching for a clear seat.
