"Who are you?" A tall girl with flaming red hair and a bunch of freckles
exclaimed. The girl next to her had brilliant green eyes framed by circular
glasses, untidy black hair and a lightning bolt shaped scar running across
her forehead. The boy on her right had rather bushy brown hair.
Hermione and the others exchanged looks. They're us! she mouthed with an elated look on her face. Ron cleared his throat and outstretched his hand. They jumped and eyed it warily. Ron withdrew it, embarrassed. "Hi," he said uncertainly, "we're from the another dimension." Harry slapped his hand to his forehead. -That won't freak them out at all-he thought sarcastically.
"You performed the skipedia dimensa spell?" The boy piped up unexpectedly, eyes goggling, "That's a highly complicated spell, and probably breaking about twenty school rules.." His face displayed a battle within him of whether to be impressed or disapproving. Ron snorted. "Hermione," he said, swivelling to face her, "I'd like you to meet your male opposite," He and Harry stifled a laugh and Hermione shot them a deadly look. "Hi," she addressed the boy, "I'm Hermione,"
"Herman," he replied.
"I'm Harriet," the black haired girl chirped. She motioned towards the red haired girl beside her. "That's Veronica,"
"Call me Ronnie," said Ron's opposite, making a face at her proper name. Both groups stood there for a moment, taking each other in. "So," Ron began, nudging the floor with his shoe. He glanced up at Ronnie, before looking at the floor again. "If genders are opposite, that means you have, five sisters and one brother?"
Ronnie nodded with a look that plainly said 'unfortunately'. She took a deep breath and began counting off on her fingers, "The youngest is Reginald, we normally call him Gin; and then there's me; then Freda and Georgina, they're twins; Priscilla; Charlene and Belinda," She grinned at Ron, who returned the grin. "How about you?" she asked.
"Well, there's." they both began drifting off towards the entrance of the library. Herman and Hermione were discussing which subjects they should take on next year. "Oh!" Herman said suddenly, "We can't let anyone see you guys!" Harriet rolled her eyes and smiled knowingly at Harry. He smiled back. "Hey," he said, "Who did Herman go to the Yule Ball with?"
"Viktoria Krum," Harriet said wistfully, "Ronnie got really jealous. I reckon she's got a bit of a thing for Herman.." As they all chatted and walked away, Draco Malfoy grinned evilly from the shadows.
