Okay, here's chapter two, which I wrote purely for my own entertainment.
Yeah. Well, people please review! Moooving on.. ^-^
Forgot to do disclaimer for the last chapter. Well, I own nothing except the pitiful plot and the Jades.
Well, here's chapter two. Yes, a short and sucky chapter, but nevertheless...
((CHAPTER TWO: Meeting the New Girl))
The train screeched to a stop at the Hogsmeade train station. The trio grabbed their trunks and clambered off the train and into a carriage. Hermione was determinedly not looking at Ron.
"It's so strange." Ron said all of a sudden. Harry turned to look at him.
"What's strange?"
"Knowing that these very carriages that we've been riding for four years had always been pulled along by Thestrals. I mean, I always thought that they moved by themselves."
Harry nodded. "Yeah. Well, when I first saw them I kind of freaked out. I mea-"
Hermione cut in. "If you two wouldn't mind, but I feel that you should take a quick peek out the window."
Harry and Ron did as they were told and their jaws fell in surprise. There was the radiant Jade, not only was she not in a carriage....she wasn't on the ground. The Jade seemed to be walking purely on air.
"Hermione," Harry said, "You didn't tell us that Jades could do that."
"I...didn't know."
Suddenly, the Jade turned her head sharply and was now looking the three dead in the eye. Harry swallowed as his stomach flip-flopped. There was something about the girl that made his heart beat quicker than usual, and Harry couldn't tell if he liked it or not.
The Jade slowed her steps, so she was now right next to their carriage.
"Hi. I'm Sage. Taken for granted, you're Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger," her gaze passed over the two, and then came to rest on Harry. "And Harry Potter."
They nodded. Sage's words seemed incredibly clear for words coming through a glass pane.
"How did you know?" asked Hermione.
"Heard it from other students." Sage replied with a shrug.
Ron was fiddling with the hem of his robes, with his trademark tomato-red ears. Harry swallowed again, willing his stomach to discontinue its churning and his heart to slow its beating.
:: Haven't seen Ron's ears that red since Fleur was here. Yep, Ron surely fancies Sage. There's something strange about her. :: Harry thought. A smile tugged at the corners of Sage's mouth. Harry remembered what Hermione had said about Jades being skilled Occlumens, and his face slowly began to turn the color of Ron's ears.
"Well, see you around then."
And with that, she left. If you were in the carriage with Harry, Ron, and Hermione, you probably would have sworn that there was a slight skip in her step that wasn't there before.
