The Professor
Chapter One: Heading to Hogwarts
Disclaimer: All characters belong to J. K. Rowling and her publishers.
Ginny Weasley was lying in her bed, half awake, half asleep. She rolled over on her stomach and finally dozed off. The problem was that it was eight in the morning the day that she went back to Hogwarts. She was going back to Hogwarts for her last year.
Since she was asleep, she didn't notice Ron sneaking up behind her with a grin on his face. He walked slowly over to her bed until he was breathing down her neck. She still didn't notice.
"Ginny! Wake up!" Ron shook her vigorously until she jumped up, eyes wide. She looked around her room quickly to see what had happened. Her eyes rested on Ron. If looks could kill, Ron would have been dead and buried. Ginny jumped out of bed.
"Ron! Get out! Get out now!" Ron looked at her shocked. He had never seen his sister that mad, and over such a small thing. He backed away till he was a safe distance away.
"Why, Virginia, if it's that time of the month, don't go around taking it out on your dear brother!" Ginny advanced on him and threw him against the wall. She held him against the wall by his neck. He tried to stutter an apology, but was out of breath.
"If you ever say anything like that again, I'll tell Mum. She will react worse than me!" Ron's blue eyes widened in shock. He nodded quickly and tore out of the room. Ginny grinned in triumph. She headed over to her wardrobe. She flung out several shirts and pares of jeans. She closed the wardrobe and picked up the cloths she threw out. She picked up the two shirts. One had a giant yellow star with a blue background. The other was a pink hooded sweatshirt with a rainbow on the chest. She decided on the pink sweatshirt.
She picked up the jeans. One was a pare of blue flared jeans. The other were black flared with small butterflies up the side. She wasn't in the mood for a girly pare, so she wore the blue flared ones.
She looked around the room and took it all in. She wouldn't be seeing it all for a whole year. She went around and collected her school stuff. Books, quills, parchment, and ink all got loaded into her trunk. She looked around for the one last object. Her new wand. Over the summer, she had gotten a job at Quality Quidditch Supplies and had earned enough for a new wand and other stuff.
Her new wand was Holly, eleven inches, and had a core of a unicorn hair. She simply loved it, for it was brand new, not ever belonging to anyone else in the family. Just hers. But now the problem was finding it. She looked in every possible place but still hadn't found it. She was getting very worried. She had thrown out her old wand because she didn't think she'd need it. Now she was wand less.
Then she remembered. Last night she had held the wand while she was going to sleep, she must've fallen asleep with it in her hands. She threw off her blue bedspread and pillows. There, lying on the sheets was her new wand. She picked it up and shoved it in her sweatshirt's front pocket.

"Goodbye Gin, see you at Christmas!" Ron yelled over the crowd. Ginny waved at her brother and the rest of her family. The whole family had come to the platform to see the last of the Weasley children off to her last year of Hogwarts. There they were all lined up in the order of oldest to youngest. Mr. Weasley, Mrs. Weasley, Charlie, Bill, Percy, Fred, George, and Ron. Ginny took one last look at her family and hopped on the train.

Ginny had been wandering up and down the train, looking for a place to sit. Not one compartment had any space so far. She knocked on the next compartment door. She waited a few minutes before she got an answer. Ginny groaned when she saw who the compartment contained.
"What do you want, Weasley?!" A blond girl sneered at her.
"Nothing, just looking for a seat, Brooks, but I'll be going now," Ginny said, sneering right back. She gazed in on the other's sitting in the compartment. Holly Brooks, Leanne Jacobs, and Daniel Shanks. All Slytherin gits. Ginny turned around and stormed out of the compartment.
After walking quite a while, she simply walked into a compartment. She looked around and noticed that only one person was sitting in the compartment, his head covered by a book. Ginny walked towards him slowly and finally spoke up.
"Um, sorry to interrupt your reading, but would you mind if I shared this compartment?" The boy immediately looked out from behind his book and a grin spread a crossed his and Ginny's faces.
