Chapter 6-
"'Mornin' 'arry, Ron, and 'ermione!" Hagrid said, as the 3 got off the train.
"Good morning Hagrid" the 3 said in unison.
Hermione's bleeding had stopped, but there was a trail of dried blood going down the back of her neck onto her robes. Ron, who they found out later on the train, had bruised his hands and his back was bleeding was fine to, although you could see the bloodstain on the back of his robes.
"I'm so tired!" Ron said, lying back in the huge chairs.
They were in the common room and just had finished dinner. He looked out the window. It was good to be back. He had his two best friends beside him and they were looking into a blazing fire. Everything was good, nothing crazy yet. It was quiet for a second, and then Hermione piped in,
"Did you catch the new defense against the arts teacher?" Ron and harry shook their heads.
Ron had been busy looking at the 2 new 5th year Gryffindor girls. He had also seen Angel; she had been sitting with Malfoy and laughing with him. She made him sick.
Hermione frowned "neither did I! I really wanted to know to!"
It looked as though Hermione was about to say something, when a loud crash came from outside.
"WHAT was that!" Hermione said, sitting up.
"I dunno, I'm gonna go see" Harry said, walking over to the door.
"Me two!" Ron said following him.
Hermione stayed behind watching them. Ron looked over Harry's shoulder as he opened the portrait hole to a small girl hunched over something.
"Hi?" Harry said, looking down and a mop of brownish hair.
"Oh, hullo, how are you?" the girls' head was still hunched over something.
"Fine, are u OK?" Ron said, moving down to the girl.
"I'm fine." She lifted her head; her clear blue eyes met his.
"Were you the crash we heard?" She nodded. Laughing a little.
"I'm the clumsiest person you will ever meet." Harry hunched down as well.
"We'll we haven't really met..."
Ron nodded, as he did he looked down and saw what the girl had been looking at.
"Urg..." He slipped back.
"Its not that bad!" The girl said, laughing again.
" Its not that bad!" Ron said, looking at the huge gash on the girls' leg.
"Not compared to what I've been threw!" Ron looked at her in amazement.
She'd like harry; they would have a lot I'm common in the "getting hurt" department."
She stood up, leaving a puddle of blood on the dusty floor.
"OOPS" She said, and with a quick motion she wiped out her wand and mumbled a little spell and the mess disappeared.
The two boys stood up to.
"Do you need any help?" Ron offered.
"ER- yea, kinda." She answered, moving her hair out of her face.
"You know you should go to the hospital wing." Harry said, looking at the gash in her leg.
"Naw, my friend is great with stuff like this, and with me for a friend, she gets lots of practice." She smiled and laughed again.
Ron picked up some of her stuff and the three of them headed into the common room.
"So what was the...." Hermione started, then seeing the girl she stopped.
"Who's this" She questioned, as Ron put the girls' books down on a table.
"We don't know yet." Ron said, looking over at the mysterious girl.
"Wow, what a beautiful common room!" The girl wondered, spinning around looking at everything with wide eyes.
She stopped when she got back to Ron. "I'm Ellie, and you are Ron, a.... Weasley."
Ron looked at her with a questionable expression on his face; he watched her turn to Hermione.
"You are.... Hermione granger?" Ellie smiled as she turned to harry. "No question to who you are, Harry Potter!" She held out her hand, "it's a pleasure to meet you at last."
He shook her and Ron watched her in astonishment. She then picked up her books.
"It was a pleasure meeting all of you, but I'm sorry I must go, I have packing and studying to do. Thanks so much for the help." And with that she stumbled up the stairs.
" Who.... Who was that?" Hermione said. "How did she know our names?"
Ron didn't have any idea, he thought she was nice, and smiled. He nodded to himself, yea this is gonna be an interesting year...the three smiled and walked up to their dorms.
"How strange was that?" Harry said to Ron, unpacking his PJ's.
Ron nodded. "She seemed nice though."
Just then something was tapping at the window. Ron walked over and a small snowy owl sat outside the windowsill.
"Look guys, we have a visitor." harry laughed. Ron opened the window and the owl flew in and landed on Ron's head. The boys gathered around Ron, and started to awe over the bird. It would fly around the room and land on each of the boy's heads, and bite their finger affectingly. When they were all ready for bed, Ron led it out to the window, and with a last affectionate bite, it flew off. Ron slowly tumbled into bed, and fell asleep almost instantly.
