Disclaimer: IF I owned these characters do you think I would be writing a
fan-fiction? Enough said. Well, actually, I do own my original character
and the plot, but that is all.
Thanks: I would like to thank the two people who have actually reviewed this! I love reviews! If I don't have anymore, than that is not much incentive for me to continue this story is it? I don't really care if it is positive or negative, just so long as it is some! So please review!
I dedicate this chapter to my friend Elise, who is the most fun person ever to role-play with over aim!
The train was coming to a stop. Hermione, Harry, Ron, and Sara all gathered up their belongings and, as the train became still, they got up and walked towards the exit.
Sara caught a glimpse of Draco as she got off, and waved at him. Hermione saw this gesture and gave Sara a look,
"Why did you just wave at Malfoy?" she frowned at Sara.
Sara looked confused for a second before answering
"Is there some reason why I shouldn't acknowledge his presence?"
Hermione realized that she had never told Sara about the wars between the trio and Malfoy.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to mention the fact that he has been a complete jerk towards us since first year. He is in Slytherin and they believe that they are better than the rest of the houses." She smiled apologetically at Sara.
Sara nodded, she understood now why they had looked grateful when she had interrupted the argument between Harry and Draco. As for why they had looked shocked, she guessed it must be because she knew their enemy's father.
"Okay, but I still would like to give him a chance. I don't believe in judging people until I know them for myself." Sara hoped she hadn't sounded rude or contradicting, but she didn't like it when people were mean to someone based solely on what they had been told. It just irked her.
Hermione understood. She knew that Sara would soon realize that Malfoy wasn't someone that she would want to wave at or even talk to. All she would have to do would be to not be sorted into Slytherin, and also to spend a few days with the trio and see how Malfoy treated them. It probably would only take one day, but with Malfoy, you never knew.
"Fir's years, fir's years!" came a call that sounded very familiar to Harry, Ron, and Hermione.
Sara, however, heard the voice and wondered if she should go because she was almost like a first year. She looked at Harry.
"That's Hagrid. Come on, you can meet him, and find out where you need to go." Harry had almost read Sara's mind. And it scared her. Her mind was the only thing she had to herself, besides her secrets. And those were something she would love to share with someone, if only that someone was somebody she trusted.
Sara followed Harry closely, and soon saw the largest man she had ever seen. She wasn't frightened, because she knew if he worked at Hogwarts, he must be safe, but still, it was intimidating.
Hagrid smiled when he saw Harry.
"Ello 'Arry! How was your summer? Who is your friend?"
"It was the usual" Harry said with a frown, and then smiled. "This is Sara Simmons. She is a new sixth year student at Hogwarts and we were just wondering where she needs to go to be sorted."
"Ah, yes, Dumbledore told me all about you Sara. You will need to come with me and the rest of the first years so you can here Professor McGonnagal's {spelling?} speech and then you can be sorted. It is great to have you here." Hagrid smiled at Sara.
Harry hoped Sara hadn't been scared by Hagrid's size because when she first saw him a strange look had crept onto her face for a second.
"I will see you at the sorting Sara. I hope you get into Gryffindor!" Harry gave her an encouraging smile and went to find Ron and Hermione.
Sara looked up at Hagrid and swallowed. She had been through worse than a new school with a bunch of new people. So why did she feel so alone?
I know I said I would make this chapter longer than the last one and I did, just not by much. It is just that that seemed like such a good place to stop and I hadn't planned on adding another chapter this week, so I hope you enjoy! Please Review! Thanks, and have a great week!
