P.S. To the person who commented about not posting chapters individually- it takes a lot longer that way, that's why I post in bulks. Thanks for understanding!
P.P.S- To the flamer who said he/she wouldn't read my story because it was Ron/Luna.it's Ron/Lavender, not Ron/Luna. At least read a little of my story before flaming it. Oodles of thanks!
Chapter 17 To Hogwarts We Go
Anna, Katie and Jenny packed there trunks the morning of September 1st with a lot of excitement, as well as some heavy hearts. They were a mixture of exited, nervous and sad. Sad to be leaving there houses and family, exited about going to hogwarts, for the had heard a lot of great things about it. They were nervous for they did not know whether they would fit in, or what exactly would happen. Katie, being the most adventurous spoke first.
"Oh, come on guys, it'll be great, don't feel so down hearted, it'll be great!" Katie said. Jenny smiled at her, for she knew that Katie was trying to convince herself just as much as the other two girls of this. Anna just groaned, and gave Katie a very fake thumbs up. 'Great' Anna mumbled as she walked out of the door. All three girls entered the car.
"Oh, cheer up, Hogwarts is great, it really is" Harry said, since he was the one that was to drive them that morning. Katie gave her dad a very forced smile, where as Jenny just sighed, and Anna rolled her eyes. Anna was quite a bit of a little comic when you got to know her, but sometimes her comedy was taken as rude by others. When they got off at Kings Cross station..Harry helped the girls move there trunks out of the back of the car. He put them on carts, along with Milky (the owl) in her cage and Sherbert (the cat) was in Katies arms. Harry explained how they were to walk through platform 9 ¾. Then he pushed Katie and Jenny through first, with there stuff. Than he went through with Anna, and the rest of the luggage. When they got into the place, they heard a scream.
"Harry, is that you?" screamed a Chinese looking girl from a distance away. Harry looked at her and asked.
"Cho?"! The women nodded feverishly, Harry ran over and hugged her. Katie was now staring at her father. Katie looked at Jenny, who nodded, and they were off towards the now smiling 'couple'.
"Hello, I'm Katie, his daughter, and this here is his niece Jennifer" Katie explained to 'Cho'.
"Nice to meet you" Cho said shaking to the two girls hands. "I'm Cho, I went to school with your father" she explained. Katie let out a relief, they were only friends, thank god. Cho smiled at the relief that took over the childs face. BR "Look, I gotta get these girls on the train, but we should get together for coffee sometime, I could bring Hermione and Ron, it'd be great" Harry said, waving goodbye to Cho. Cho waved goodbye smiling, then turned to what looked like an 15 year old boy and started talking to him in Chinese. Anna caught up with them, she had been talking to another girl, who was with her.
"Hey guys, this is Mandy, she's in our year too, can she sit with us on the train?" she asked, pointing to the sandy haired girl next to her.
"Of course, hi, I'm Jenny, this is my cousin Katie, we're friends of Annas" Jenny explained.
"It's a pleasure to meet you too" Mandy said. With that they boarded the Hogwarts Express..to Hogwarts we go!
Chapter 18 Sorting Hat Sorts
After getting to Hogwarts and riding on the boats with Hagrid the friendly giant, they stood in the great hall waiting to be sorted. Of course, none of them knew how they'd be sorted, for many of the rumors, were believed to be false, and most parents told there kids to wait, when being asked. Just then Professor Neville Longbottom walked out with a hat and a stool. The first years looked baffled. Then the hat spook. (if the songs pathetic, I appologize, didn't want to spend too much time on it)
I'm the Hogwarts sorting hat
And I know very well
Just where each one of you belongs
And I know how to tell
Just look inside each of your heads
And I will know well
What house of you should go
And that is just swell
You may belong in Gryfinndor
Where they are very brave
Or Hufflepuff
Where they are just and loyal
Or maybe in old Ravenclaw
Where all the great minds dwell
Or perhaps in Slytherin,
Where cunning people will live.
So put me on don't be afraid
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
Then Longbottom started calling names..
Anderson, Julie
GRYFFINDOR
Beck, Steven
SLYTHERIN
On and on the names just rolled..
Nathenson, Mandy
RAVENCLAW
Kiehm, Anna
SYTHERIN
Finally...
Potter, Kaitlyn...
GRYFFINDOR
Pewter, Sandy
GRYFFINDOR
At last..
Weasley, Jennifer
GRYFFINDOR
Chapter 19 Friends, Mornings and Schedules
When the feast was over prefects let them to there dormitories. Jennifer and Katie, found themselves sharing a room, with 3 other girls. The first one had long blonde hair that was plated in a nice brade, that fell past her shoulders, chestnut brown eyes and was about 5 feet tall. She walked over to Katie, shook her hand and said. "Hello, my name is Heidi Weschester" Heidi said. She looked nice and her voice was kind. Than the second girl stepped forward. She had blue eyes, and sandy blonde hair, that lay gently on her shoulders.
"Hello, I'm Sandy Pewter" Sandy said. They then looked at the third foreign girl. She had raven black hair, and chocolate brown eyes.
"Hello, I'm Julie Anderson" Julie said. After Katie and Jenny had introduced themselves, they decided to go to bed for it was late, and they had classes the next morning. When morning came, Jenny was the first to wake up. She decided to get the shower, before anyone else woke up. But she was too late, Sandy was already rising, so Jenny just grabbed some clothes.
"Morning Jenny, trying to get the shower before the rush?" Sandy asked knowingllly.
"Exactly" Jenny said, before going into the bathroom and shutting the door. Sandy smiled as she got out of bed. She walked over to the mirror, in the corner of the room, and started brushing out her hair. Just then, she heard a yawn, in back of her, and saw Julie pulling back her curtains.
"Morning Sandy" Julie said sleeply as she stepped out of bed.
"Morning Julie, Jenny beat you in there" she said as Julie attempted to open the bathroom absentmindedly. Julie just rolled her eyes and muttered something about hot water hoggers. After Jenny got out, Sandy and Julie were in. Sandy went first, but Julie insisted on securing her place after Sandy by waiting in the bathroom. Especially after Jenny so kindly shared how long of showers Katie was known to take. Jenny combed out her hair, and decided to go wake up her cousin. "Katie, Katy Cat, wake up" Jenny said gently as she shook her cousin. Katie opened her eyes, and smiled at Jenny. Then she pulled herself into a sitting position, 'morning' she muttered. Jenny giggled at the sight of her. After Heidi had woken up, and all of the girls had showered and dressed, they started there walk down to breakfast. At breakfast, they got there times tables. They had Defense against the dark Arts first, than Transfiguration and lastly potions. So they set of towards the DADA class!
Chapter 20 Teachers,Classes and Fighting
When they got there, they noticed the teacher was sitting at his desk. The looked into the face, and were very startled to see that the person sitting at the desk was none other than Seamus Finningan, a man that was often over at the house socializing with Harry and Ron. They looked shocked, but Professor Finnigan just smiled at them mischievously. They took there seats.
"What was that all about?" Heidi asked. Katie just looked at Jenny, and then replied.
"Oh, it's just that Seamus, or Professor Finnigan is a good friend of our fathers, we never knew what he did for a living, but now we know" Katie said. Heidi, Julie and Sandy just nodded understandingly. They figured out they had that class with the Slytherins. Anna, and a few of her friends walked over to a table. "Hey Anna" Sandy said, across the classroom with a huge smile on her face. It looked like Sandy was fine with the house placement. Apparently Anna wasn't. "Don't ever talk to me in public, my friends" she said pointing to her 'gang' "say that Gryffindors are horrible and that I shouldn't associate with them, so sorry, but our friendship is sooooo over" Anna said to Sandy, hate in her voice; "the same applies to you 2" Anna added, looking at Katie and Jenny. Sandy ran away crying. Heidi followed her, while Julie looked confused.
"They used to be friends, Anna was the one who introduced Sandy to us"( A/N I know, she didn't but it works better this way, so just please Mandy is not important, so just pretend it was Sandy back there). Katie explained. In Transfiguration they had Professor Padma Patil, who was very good! When they got to potions was the real surprise..there standing at the desk was none other than Draco Malfoy! Jenny shrieked, and Katie gasped. Professor Malfoy just looked at them and snickered. All 5 girls sat down, for the first of many very long potion lessons. That night, Jenny and Katie wrote home.
