Alex looked out from the rock he was sitting on. He could see fairly far from his slab of stone on the mountainside, but the dense forest below made hardly anything visible except trees. He sighed, a slight smile on his lips as he looked out at the Jupiter Lighthouse, now lit and casting a purple glow over the land. Shaking his head, he absentmindedly looked down at his gloved hands, knowing that Agatio and Karst would have a fit when he met them next. He had gone up his current mountain for no real reason.. he just felt more at home in the cold. He did grow up in the mountains and the ice afterall. Looking to his right, the opposite direction of the sunset, he saw a village far in the distance, just bordering the horizon. Standing up, he began jumping down rocks and set off to replenish his supplies.
------
"Since you just got here, you're going to have to do with what spare supplies we have."
Jenna and Mia exchanged looks. "What kind of things do we need to go to school?"
"Oh, lots of things. You need text books--" Hermione began.
"Too many of them." Ron added.
"A wand--"
"Does more harm than good." Ron stated, casting a dark look towards his old wand while remembering the.. accident .. which ended up with him spitting up slugs.
"Robes. You can't say anything bad about robes." Hermione finally declared.
"Are you kidding me?" Ron asked incredulously, staring down at his own tattered set. "Anyway, you get all that stuff from Diagon Alley which is a train ride away. It's too late to travel there now, classes start the day after tomorrow, so you'll just have to do with extras for now."
"How are they going to get wands?" Harry wondered aloud.
"I have no clue Harry... here!" After disappearing for a moment, Hermione reappeared carrying a big bundle of dusty cloth.
"... What's that?" Jenna asked suspiciously.
"Robes!"
"There were robes in there? And I never knew?"
"You don't know a lot of things Ron. Harry, you can show Isaac, Ivan and Felix to the boys' rooms. I'll stay here with Jenna and Mia."
"There is no way I'm wearing that." Jenna stated, eyeing the old robes.
"I'm sure it can't be that bad." Mia said, holding each one up to her body to see if it would be the proper size.
"I know they aren't the best.. usually one gets new robes fitted for you at Diagon Alley, but as you know we don't have time to go there. And you definitely can't wear the clothes you're wearing now." Hermione added as an afterthought.
"What's wrong with what I'm wearing now?!" Jenna huffed indignantly. Hermione, for once in her life, was lacking for words. Either that, or she had so many different responses that she couldn't pick which one to say.
"Nothing. How about we come out when we're done, ok?" Mia asked, looking at Hermione.
"Sure." Hermione replied, somewhat relieved to have been rid of that awkward situation.
"... This sucks." Jenna stated after the female Gryffindor had left, while Mia just smiled.
------
"... Malfoy played a dirty trick on me, and I fell off my broom but he crashed right into Ivan." Ron made a sympathetic click of his tongue as he listened to Harry retell the previous occurences of the day.
Isaac was half listening, while fiddling with his.. 'robes'. He fidgeted miserably in the long cloaks of cloth muttering something.
"What was that?" Ivan asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh nothing.. I just feel so defenseless in these. What if we're attacked? I can't fight in this!"
"I fight in tunics and clothes like these all the time."
"..." Isaac stayed silent, and Felix couldn't help but agree with him. Ivan was a Jupiter adept, it was different. Personally, he felt very unsafe nothing nothing to protect him. First the weapons, now the armor. Of course, they still had their psyenery which was the most important, but presently Felix was beginning to doubt their decision of showing and informing these people of their powers.
"So what do we do now?" Harry and Ron looked up at what seemed to be a frowning Isaac, although his face hardly showed it.
"Uhh.. I don't know, let's find Hermione. She always knows everything." Ron said, standing up. Harry followed Ron's lead, disappointed that even without the armor and swords Isaac and Felix still looked dead serious and slightly intimidating. Walking through the doorframe, Ron looked around the Gryffindor common room and found the bushy haired brunett he was looking for.
"Oi! Hermione!"
"Ron! Harry!" She turned around, greeting them. "Oh, I'm glad the robes fit you," she began to Isaac and Felix, "but your robes are a bit too big.."
"Don't worry, I'm used to it." Ivan replied, smiling.
"Where's Jenna?" Felix asked, with an impatient edge to his tone.
"... and Mia?" Isaac shot an annoyed glance at Felix for forgetting about the Mercury adept.
"We're right here!" The two said adepts appeared behind Hermione wearing their own sets of rented robes. "How do I look?"
Isaac smiled a bit at Mia, "Fine."
"So what are we going to do until classes start?" Ivan asked the two wizards and witch softspokenly.
"Oh.. I don't know, there's a small regular dinner tonight at the Great Hall, and tomorrow night is when most people arrive. That's when they do the sorting and feast." Hermione answered.
'Right.. the sorting..' Felix echoed inside his mind. 'They better not think of separating us, because it won't work.' He told himself firmly.
"Until then you could just wander around, I suppose... just don't miss dinner. You'll recognize the Great Hall when you see it."
"And try to stay away from Slytherins. They'll only bring trouble."
"Ron..."
"What? They will! When has a Slytherin ever helped you?"
"We'll be in the library if you need anything." Hermione said, smiling at the new students.
"The library?! School hasn't even started!!" The five adepts watched wordlessly as the three Gryffindors left the commonroom, Hermione clearly ignoring Ron and his complaints on the way out.
"... so what are we doing now?" Jenna asked somewhat excitedly to the group, temporarily forgetting about her new wardrobe. The other adepts looked at each other questioningly.
"How about we just look around?" Ivan suggested. The rest agreed, Felix shrugging his shoulders. He really could have cared less what they did, but perhaps this way they could get a bearing of their surroundings.
After passing the portrait (and Mia getting a slight jump), they wandered down the hallways in wordless awe. It was huge! 'How can such a building, which rivals many palaces, be a school?' Ivan wondered. Sure, they had no idea where they were going, but it didn't matter much to the adepts. Catching sight of the library, Ivan made a turn.
"Where are you going?" Mia asked him, making the rest of the group turn.
"I want to see the books, you don't get much time to see many when we travel. Besides, this is where Harry and the others are, maybe I can find out more about this place."
"If you need anything, just contact us." Isaac said, with nothing but seriousness in his voice, portraying none of the concern that could be seen in his eyes.
"Don't worry, Isaac. I'll meet you in the Great Hall at dinner, I can just ask someone where it is." The adepts watched Ivan disappear into the library and continued walking on.
"This place is so huge.." Jenna said to the group, still in awe. "How are we going to find our way around?"
"We found our way around foreign continents, I think we can find our way around a school." Felix answered, albeit a bit unemotionally.
"Just don't come to me when you get lost!" Jenna replied, winking. The comment made Isaac snort, which ensued another staring contest between the two venus adepts.
"Come on, don't start fighting you two. Let's find the Great Hall, maybe we can talk and get to know some people here." Mia said.
"I hope by that you don't mean spilling our all secrets and goals." Isaac said sternly, remembering the incident in Dumbledore's office.
"Isaac, don't tell me you are still upset about that." Mia stopped, turned to face Isaac, and grasped his gloved hands (he had refused to his gloves off along with the rest of his armor), "I'm sorry. Don't worry, I solemnly swear not to tell another anything about alchemy or the lighthouses. Forgive me?" She pleaded with big eyes and a trace of a smile.
Isaac could not help but feel a twinge of a smile appear on his face. "Yes, of course. How could I not?"
Felix resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and continued walking on, motioning for Jenna to do the same. At least now he knew that no one would say anything more than they needed to say to these strangers. Jenna was full-fledged smiling chirping something about Isaac and Mia being a cute couple, causing a streak of red to appear across Isaac's face, before skipping up to join her brother. Mia smiled at Isaac, and letting go of his hand, told him that they had better hurry up before Felix lost them.
Isaac shook his head at her, "I think I'm going to go back and check up on Ivan. We'll meet you at the Great Hall." Mia nodded, waved goodbye at Isaac's turning back, and jogged to catch up with Felix and Jenna.
-----
"So what do you think about them?" Hermione asked.
"Think about who?"
"The new students! Who else?"
"They seem nice enough, well, half of them anyway. There's just something strange about them.." Harry answered.
"Yeah, wearing armor and carrying swords around. I would say that is strange, but then again so is the whole muggle world." Ron replied nonchalantly.
"Ron! Muggles do NOT dress like they do. I agree with you Harry, there's something strange going on here."
"... Did you feel anything ... unusual in Dumbledore's office?" Harry asked Ron and Hermione.
"What, now?" Ron asked, paying full attention to his best friend.
"No, when we were waiting outside for the new students."
"No.. why?" Herimone asked, sensing a mystery to be solved.
"It's probably nothing, I just swear I felt something weird coming from in there for a moment.. then it was gone." Harry said, leaning back in his chair while Hermione looked at him thoughtfully.
"You probably did feel something we didn't.. either way, there's definitely something going on here, and we should find out just what it is."
"HEY IVAN!!" Ron suddenly said very loudly, alerting the other two Gryffindors.
Ivan, after splitting up with the others, had wandered the aisles just looking at the sheer volume of the number of books. He had spotted Harry, Ron and Hermione sitting at a table, and had went over to join them.
"Ivan! What are you doing here?" Harry asked, shooting Ron and Hermione warning looks.
"I just wanted to see the library, it sounds like you spend a lot of time in here." He told them.
"Sadly, that's true, because ONE of us can't get enough of it." Ron said, nodding his head conspicuously at Hermione.
"And it's thanks to that ONE of us that you're getting the marks you are!" She replied indignantly.
"Where are the others?" Harry asked the Jupiter adept.
"Oh, they're looking around the school probably." There was an uncomfortable silence in which the three Gryffindors fidgetted and looked at each other. Ivan grew confused as suddenly Harry and Ron's faces held strong features of contempt.
"Malfoy." Ron spat out, glaring at a figure behind Ivan.
When Ivan turned around however, he was faced with in fact three figures. Two lumbering goons stood on either side of Malfoy, whom was that blonde haired boy from earlier, who was currently sending a smirk in Ivan's direction.
"Well Potter, still hanging out with every circus freak that comes around I see. It would make sense I suppose, to mingle with your own kind." Hurt flashed over Ivan's face, and Malfoy seeing it, extended his grin.
"Malfoy! You don't talk about Harry and Ivan that way!" Hermione said, standing up with Harry and Ron following her lead.
"Three losers and a mudblood. How can you stop me?"
"Oh, I'll show you how I can stop you!" Ron lunged for Malfoy, but was caught by Harry.
"Don't do it Ron, it's not worth it." Harry said, grabbing hold of his best friend's arms.
"It will be! Just to see him with a black eye!"
"Ron! Stop!" Hermione said, watching them struggle.
"What's going on?" The three Slytherins and Gryffindors looked to the new arrival whom Ivan had seen a moment before. Malfoy's eyes widened a fraction for a second when his smirk reappeared and had a look of disbelief.
"So the moron population of this school IS being added to.." Malfoy commented while eyeing a robed Isaac.
It's nothing, he just showed up and said some things. It's nothing to worry about. Ivan told the other adept.
You were always too nice, Ivan. Even I can clearly see that he forgets his place.
Isaac looked Malfoy levelling in the eyes, aware of Crabbe and Goyle on the sidelines though he didn't know their names. He sighed, he couldn't fight them... besides, he did not esspecially like fighting.
"Listen, and listen well Malfoy," Isaac started, taking a step towards the forementioned blonde, "we will be attending this school, so I suggest you get used to it." Isaac pondered saying more, be settled for continuing to stare at him.
"Not so big without your halloween costume, are you? Pathetic." With that being said, Malfoy brushed roughly past Isaac and called for Crabbe and Goyle to follow.
"He seemed to leave in a hurry." Hermione said, thoughtfully looking at Isaac.
Why did you come here anyway, Isaac? Ivan asked the Venus adept.
... to tell you that we should probably go find the Great Hall now.
"Is it time for dinner yet?" Ivan asked aloud.
"Actually it is! We should get going!" Ron said happily, past incident forgotten, at the thought of a meal and started leading the way to the Great Hall.
-----
"Wow, this place is empty." Jenna said, tapping her fingers on one of the many tables in the Great Hall. The group of adepts were sitting at the Gryffindor table, for lack of a better choice. There were a few students mulling around, but hardly anyone gave them a second glance assuming they were just new students. Which they were.
"That's because most people are arriving tomorrow." Hermione said, appearing alongside Harry, Ron, Isaac and Ivan.
"Hey, what took you guys?" Jenna asked, sitting up straight.
"Malfoy." Harry replied with a slightly disgusted tone.
"Who?" Mia asked confused, and looked towards Isaac raising and eyebrow.
"That kid." Ron said, jabbing his finger rudely towards the blonde who had just entered the Great Hall.
"Really? What --" Jenna was interrupted and her eyes widened considerably as food suddenly appeared on the tables. Even Felix seemed surprised.
"Dinner time!"
--------------------
DONE. I've been working on this chapter for a LONG time, even though it shouldn't have taken that long. I'M SORRY FOR THE WAIT!! I hope there're still readers.
I changed Ivan's thought-communication thing from "/________/" to "_________" and I also made a pretty major change in chapter 3 although it was only a few words. I thought that Sirius being the new DADA teacher was too much like White Angel's fic, and this makes the plot a lot better for me. More to come! Hopefully sooner than the last update! It's because of all the support and i'm getting the ideas back in my head.
Cya!
