Alisa heard someone yelling. She moaned and shouted, "Shove a sock in it!
People need to sleep you know!" She mumbled, "Stupid idiots." Then she
remembered she was in London, at her cousin's and that she was going to
have to unpack sometime that day.
Alisa sat up and felt groggy. She moaned really loudly. Then she heard, "Harry, I want you to meet Alisa. She's my cousin." Alisa practically flew across the room to her clothes and threw on a black pair of pants and a black shirt. Hermione was saying to Harry while she was, "She's a bit of a newbie with London and she's going to get transferred, well she is transferred to Hogwarts. I'll just see if she's awake."
Hermione knocked on the door. Alisa shouted pretending to be mad, "What? I'm tired and cranky but you better hope this is a good thing!"
Hermione opened the door a bit and looked in. Alisa saw Hermione's eyes peering on her and she said, "We're coming in." She opened the door. Alisa was so shocked to see four new faces. Well, three because two of the faces looked exactly alike, red haired and freckly. Another was of course Harry's and than a younger looking red haired girl.
Alisa said scrunching into a ball on her bed, "Who are all these people? Oh wait. Hi Harry!"
Harry looked shocked and looked at Hermione. Hermione was looking at Harry. Harry said nervously, "P-Pleasure. How did you know who I was?"
Alisa rolled her eyes and said rather rudely, "Duh! It's like the most obvious thing! Like if I had hair up to my hips and I shaved it off and then people go around asking, 'did you cut your hair? Or is it me!' Honestly a nightmare."
Harry smiled at Alisa's look on things. He asked nervously, "Mind if I come in?" Alisa shrugged and sat properly in her spot. Harry said, "Oh sorry for being so rude, that's Ginny, and the two people who look alike are Fred and George, or George and Fred."
Alisa smiled and said, "Hi. Nice to meet you all. You can all sit down somewhere. If you can find a chair." Alisa yawned and looked at her suitcase. "You can all talk. I have to pack," She said rolling her eyes like a child.
Alisa began pulling out clothes and putting them into a closet. The closet was a walkthrough closet and there was no point to it all. Alisa didn't have that much clothes. Well, she did and it filled all the room in the closet. Alisa moved onto her jewellery and small decorations like picture frames and small models of things. Last she had spare things like CD's, CD players, posters, books and man sized mirrors.
When Alisa was finished she asked the group, "Want to know something scary?"
Harry was the first to ask, "What?"
Alisa plopped down on her bed and said, "I think I like Malfoy."
Harry's jaw dropped and he asked, "Draco Malfoy, the one with the blond hair and pale face? The one whose dad is Luscious Malfoy?"
Alisa dropped her gaze and said, "Yes." She pocked at her bare feet and sighed, "I never like the right people." A tear prickled her eyes and she said crying now, "I think people are so blind seeing only bad things in people."
Hermione said angrily, "There is only bad in him. He's bloody evil." She lifted up and her wand and ran it across her neck. Ron and Harry sniggered.
Alisa asked very confused, "Why the bloody hell did you do that? You know what, I don't want to know, I want to eat and then fade into my music so..." She got up on her feet and began shoving people off her bed. She said knocking Fred on his ars, "Off, off."
Fred stood up. Alisa stepped backwards in amazement, he was so tall. He was also gorgeous. Fred said picking up his wand (which he had dropped), "Well than we'll leave. We never wanted to meet perfect little Goth Alisa."
Alisa glared at Hermione and Ron. She said angrily, "Really, who made you? Who the bloody hell told you I was a perfect little Goth girl? If I'm not mistaken, I have a tanned face, no guitar because my mom doesn't approve and, I like some adorable idiot called Malfoy. Does that sound perfect to you?"
Fred said dropping his gaze, "Well, just that you're also cute, and rich, and funny. Harry and the rest of us thought that you'd be a little suicidal brat that willows in gloominess. Want a candy?" Fred held out a large purple candy.
Hermione rolled her eyes and said, "If I was you I wouldn't take it. You might turn into a frog or something."
Alisa said smiling, "I wouldn't have taken it anyways. I don't trust anything coming from someone who strongly resembles a carrot accept with less mentality and not as domesticated as a carrot." She popped a chocolate from her dresser into her mouth.
George was laughing from total amusement. Fred joined in to. Soon everybody was laughing accept Ginny. Ginny said picking up a copy of, 'Dark and Evil things, with spells of chaos.', "Exactly why would you have a book about this stuff?"
Alisa peered over and said, "Well, my dad used to do stuff with evil things and he need to know reverse spells. Plus, I liked it. I read half the book secretly before I asked him for it. He gave it to me willingly and then I spent my days imagining setting Kayla on fire for two seconds and then feeding her a frozen worm." Alisa saw all the faces suddenly stare at her weirdly and said quickly, "That was three years ago. Now I just, imagine it happening but not by me."
Ginny asked throwing the book onto the desk, "Who's Kayla?"
Alisa said shoving her out of the room, "She's something of the past. You're too young to talk about these things. Sorry but goodbye. I need to seriously talk to people my age or older." Ginny was about to say something when Alisa closed the door.
Hermione asked sitting beside Ron on Alisa's bed, "So what exactly do we have to talk about? I mean, Ginny's only a year younger than us and she, well, lets just say she's had problems that none of us really understand. Accept Harry of course."
Alisa pulled a strand of hair out of her head and said touching where she had pulled it out, "Well, you see. I need to get into Gryffindore. If I don't, my mom might think I paid off the sorting hat or something." Fred or George sniggered. Alisa continued, "I think maybe if I don't get into Gryffindore I may get into Slytherin. That would be a sad tale to tell."
George said putting and arm over her shoulder (she figured out that George was taller and had more freckles and Fred was shorter and had less freckles), "Only the purest of people can make it into our great old houses Griff's. That's why I got in!" He started laughing. Fred joined in.
Hermione said pushing George over, "No. That's not true. Alisa. Guess what lions are. Think about this one. It may come as a challenge later."
Alisa said sucking in a huge breath, "Really, really big?" Harry and the twins laughed. Ron realizing what she said smiled and joined in.
Hermione rolled her eyes and said, "No! Brave. You have to be brave by heart, loyal by heart and smart."
Alisa said smiling innocently, "Sounds more like a dog to me. If lions are so smart, than why do they always attack buffalo first alone and then the rest catch up? Or, why do the males lay around all day if they are loyal to their group? Oh yes so loyal."
Hermione stood up frustrated and said half shouting, "Why are you making this so difficult?"
Alisa said looking up at her, "I'm making this difficult? You're the one who's making a huge deal about my questions. I'm being serious. Dogs are everything you listed and lions are as I said they where."
Hermione peered at the time and said, "Oh! Ron! Your parents should be here soon! We better hurry downstairs! Alisa, brush your teeth or something before you come down. My mom's cooking isn't very safe."
Alisa said sort of hugging herself, "Alright, but I'm freezing. Bye Ron, Harry, Fred, George, nice to meet you. Ron? Why aren't you leaving?" Ron looked at her and ran out. Alisa raised her eyebrows and walked to her closet. She wasn't really cold, she just wanted a hug.
Alisa opened the closet and took a really deep and long breath. She asked herself, "Should I wear fishnet, or a formal robe? Hmmm. I could wear that bright pink top...ideas! Okay, the bright pink corset under the fishnet shirt. A frizzy looking black and red skirt and ankle boots."
Alisa put on everything that she had said. When she finished she brushed her teeth quickly over the sink she discovered in her room. When she was done that she put a tiny bit of eyeliner on and brushed her hair. She smiled as she opened the door and went downstairs.
Hermione stared with wide eyes. She asked, "What in the name of George's red hair do you think you're doing? You can't meet their parents dressed like a hooker! They'll think you're trying to impress everyone!"
Alisa said fists clenched and face filled with fury, "Who says I'm not trying to impress anyone? Besides, I always dress like this. If you have a problem I'm afraid you'd have to remove me by yourself. No one here besides you seem to have a problem. I would very much like to meet the parents so if you don't mind, I'd like you to show me where they are."
Harry smiled widely. He said, "Well you know, I think it looks groovy. I mean corsets are very good looking on girls, and fishnet kicks a..."
Alisa put her hand over his mouth and said, "No swearing."
Harry continued, "Sorry, Fishnets, erm, groovy and uh, that skirt looks groovy too. I applaud your clothing. I would wear it if I was a girl but as you can see I'm not so that just sucks."
Alisa said cocking her head, "Who says guys can't wear fishnet, skirts and corsets?"
John said walking in with really red eyes, "They can, but most don't have any guts. Will you guys just introduce us? All you guys do is argue, or complain, or blabber about movies you want to see."
Ron said while flicking elastics at Pig, "I'd wear a skirt. If I was paid to I would."
Alisa smiled mysteriously. She didn't say anything until she saw Ron's parents. She said looking happily at Mr. Weasly's knitted sweater, "Wow, I like the vibrant colours. Oh, nice to meet you, I'm Hermione's cousin Alisa."
Mrs. Weasly said proudly, "Thank you dear. I knitted it all by myself. Well I cast the spell for it to be knitted all by myself but it still counts. I'll knit you a sweater with bright pink and er....black."
Alisa smiled and put her hands into her skirt. She sat down in between Ron and Fred. Alisa asked eyeing Mr. Weasly, "Have you been anywhere near the ministry of magic. I believe I recognize you from somewhere."
John answered poking his way in between Hermione and Nikki, "Well, I've seen him at my work sometimes. You know he'd come around and steal our clocks and watches that speak or tighten on your wrist rapidly. It's quite a laugh seeing a whole bunch of you stomp in and take our magical things."
Mr. Weasly looked at Alisa's skirt and said looking back at John, "Yes I remember you. You had that little long thing that was called a pen? It wrote silly things and muggles wouldn't realize what they where writing until after they where done."
John's eyes widened and said, "Yeah, um one of my friends gave it to me as a total joke. You know, to sort of get the muggle's who come in to qualify for, something they really didn't want. It's quite a laugh because they ask if they can have another paper."
Fred and George were having a good laugh about that. Ron said getting up, "Well, uh, I'm going to get the stuff, the, uh, school stuff so I'll be back with everything."
Alisa stood up and said slowly, "I'll help; I've never seen Hogwarts things. Never in my life. I'll just join you also because I, uh think it rude not to." Ron looked sort of amazed and headed for some room. Alisa followed him.
Ron said picking up a trunk, "Oh! Hi Hermione, and Harry."
Alisa turned around and said, "Oh. Want to help us? We've got loads of things you can help us with." Alisa picked up a trunk with her name on it. It was the size of a small bed. She said huffing, "What the bloody hell is packed in this?"
Harry picked up his smaller one. He said opening the door, "Well, you see. You need to put everything in there because recently something weird about some trolley robbers was heard and is now being greatly feared."
Alisa laughed. She laughed until they got up to her room. She only stopped because she saw the kids back in it. She said sighing and touching her head, "You know with you people I'll never be able to change." She laughed slightly and nervously and said, "I think I'll stay up here, alone."
Hermione dropped her trunk and said, "Okay. You heard her. Get out and don't come back until she says it's okay." Alisa looked at Hermione. Hermione shoved everyone out and said picking up her trunk, "Privacy is a must."
Alisa smiled and said, "Thanks. Bye." She closed the door and opened her trunk. There was a Hogwarts robe. She quickly put it on. It fit perfectly. Then she quickly looked through her books. She thought to herself, "Wow, this Bondaya Alrondey is sure a good writer. The only thing that she hasn't written is, 'Transfiguration is a privilege.' That's by a man called, Hoover Jones."
Alisa threw them aside and held her dragon scale gloves. She licked her lips and picked up her purse. She figured out where Mr and Mrs. Weasly were staying and put four gallions in front of the door. She ran back and saw a not. It said,
Dear Alisa Shem,
We are happy to inform you that you are accepted in Hogwarts. A letter was sent out to your mother earlier. We will sort you first and before the school doors are opened. You will accompany your house to their table for the rest of the years spent here. Hopefully you will enjoy this privilege. You list would have been sent out to you, but unfortunately Mrs. Weasly insisted she buy your things. What you need for sure though, is your own wonderful dress for a lovely thing happening this year. See you at the school.
Professor Albus Dumbledore.
Alisa threw it aside and said to herself, "A lovely dress huh? I'll show you a lovely dress. Alisa pulled out all her clothes she was planning to bring to Hogwarts. She smiled as she threw all seven of her dresses in her trunk. Than the clothes. Alisa smiled as she put in her kitten toys and her wand. She looked at her trunk than her CD player and CD's. She stuffed those in to.
Alisa laid down and read her book. When she got hungry she went downstairs to eat. When she got thirsty she went downstairs to drink. Finally it was night and she was tired. She picked up her kitten and said quietly, "I don't want to spend at least three days with anyone accept you." Alisa slipped on her night gown thing and laid down and put the kitten on her bed. The next day continued exactly like that. People did try to get her to talk but she never really did.
The day after that, she woke up with a start. She had the same dream as she did in the car. Accept the screeching turned out to be her kitten meowing. Alisa sat up and held her head. It felt a bit funny. Sort of, light, but it did every morning so it didn't bother her. She put on some army pants and a black tank top. She ran down the stairs and ran into Harry.
Harry said blushing, "Oh, hi Alisa! I haven't seen you in a day. Were you sick?" Alisa shook her head and stared into Harry's eyes. Harry said still blushing, "I uh, was wondering if you think you'll get into Gryffindor."
Alisa put her hands in her pockets and said looking behind Harry at the armour, "Well, uh, I'm not sire. I mean I'm brave be soul if I have a motive, and loyal to those I admire but uh, I'm not that pure. No, not with other guys."
Harry laughed. He smiled and touched Alisa's pale arm. He said grabbing it and pulling it close to his face, "Wow! You're so pale! You look dead."
Alisa pulled her arm away nervously. She held where Harry had touched it. She said looking up at him, "Uh, thanks I guess. You're um, tall...and um pale too. Don't go outside much? By the way, is anyone awake?"
Harry shrugged. He asked Alisa trying not to laugh, "Did you get any kind of dress rode thing, or dress for the lovely things happening this year? I have a sort of dressy robe." He put his hand in his pocket too.
Alisa said smiling evilly, "Oh I have a dress alright. In fact, I have about seven. I'm bringing them all. I bet there is going to be dances for like, the ceremonies. At the end of the year, I bet they are going to call in a huge carriage carry all the graduates out."
Harry shrugged. He began walking up the stairs. He stopped and turned around. He said to Alisa, "You know, you're so different from Hermione. I mean, she's funny but not like you. You just amuse me with the things that you say."
Alisa widened her eyes. She stepped away from Harry and said patting his shoulder from a distance, "Yeah. Good try there Harry. You'll never really be fly with girls. The only reason Cho kissed you was because she knew how famous you are." Harry smiled weakly but Alisa just shook her head.
Alisa stepped down some more of the steps. Harry said after her, "Alisa, the twins both really fancy you. I thought that maybe you'd like to know how they feel about you. Ron also thinks you're kind of cute." Alisa stopped in her tracks at the word 'fancy.' She turned around and looked Harry in the eyes.
Alisa sighed and looked at her bony fingers. She was pretty much really skinny. Alisa held the railing of the stairs at the bottom. She drummed her fingers on it thinking of a plot to lure George or Fred in. Then with that slowly break away from him and attract Malfoy. She asked Harry with all interest possible, "When did they say this?"
Harry shrugged realizing he had got her attention. He said looking at her evilly, "Yesterday. While we where outside discussing people. You know people from school. Ginny seems to also sort of look up to you. She says that you are really cool."
Alisa didn't look at him again. She said running into the kitchen, "Thanks." She stopped and had a sudden idea. She turned around and called after Harry, "Harry! Do you want all of us to go watch a movie? All the kids, you know."
Harry said turning around and sitting in the middle of the stairs, "Um, I'm not that sure considering, more than half of them are wizards and may con muggles or, freak out at the technology."
Alisa sighed deeply and sat down beside Harry. She saw Fred walking into the kitchen only wearing boxer shorts. She asked Harry with all interest, "Is Hogwarts interesting at all? I mean a lot of things happened in the past there, but without things like that, do you about anything?"
Harry shrugged and said, "All I heard was we are having some sort of ceremony because someone is coming. You know, someone really famous. Someone who was thought to be dead and found three years later in a pit dying of hunger, and a town was well fed right beside it. Apparently he had saved the town but fell into a hole and was lost for three yeas. I think it's sort of stupid."
Fred came out of the kitchen with a sandwich. He said taking a huge bite, "I think he ate insects and had everything he needed right there with him. Accept his wand. He may have had some food in bags. But I highly doubt he's the reason. He lives somewhere in London and anybody could just go and talk to him. I think there's someone...Harry, do you think that this years teacher is going to be someone cool?"
Harry answered, "Why would you care that much? You're not going to go to school again. You own that shop."
Fred answered rather angrily, "Well, we were invited to the ball for some jokes, but Dumbledore made us promise to not have anything too dangerous. Also, we know why you are going and we won't tell you. Now our shop had been ignored for long enough...I'm leaving and I'll see you two tonight!" And then he was gone. Just gone.
Alisa sat up and felt groggy. She moaned really loudly. Then she heard, "Harry, I want you to meet Alisa. She's my cousin." Alisa practically flew across the room to her clothes and threw on a black pair of pants and a black shirt. Hermione was saying to Harry while she was, "She's a bit of a newbie with London and she's going to get transferred, well she is transferred to Hogwarts. I'll just see if she's awake."
Hermione knocked on the door. Alisa shouted pretending to be mad, "What? I'm tired and cranky but you better hope this is a good thing!"
Hermione opened the door a bit and looked in. Alisa saw Hermione's eyes peering on her and she said, "We're coming in." She opened the door. Alisa was so shocked to see four new faces. Well, three because two of the faces looked exactly alike, red haired and freckly. Another was of course Harry's and than a younger looking red haired girl.
Alisa said scrunching into a ball on her bed, "Who are all these people? Oh wait. Hi Harry!"
Harry looked shocked and looked at Hermione. Hermione was looking at Harry. Harry said nervously, "P-Pleasure. How did you know who I was?"

Alisa smiled and said, "Hi. Nice to meet you all. You can all sit down somewhere. If you can find a chair." Alisa yawned and looked at her suitcase. "You can all talk. I have to pack," She said rolling her eyes like a child.

She thought to herself, "Wow, this Bondaya Alrondey is sure a good writer. The only thing that she hasn't written is, 'Transfiguration is a privilege.' That's by a man called, Hoover Jones."
Alisa threw them aside and held her dragon scale gloves. She licked her lips and picked up her purse. She figured out where Mr and Mrs. Weasly were staying and put four gallions in front of the door. She ran back and saw a not. It said,
Dear Alisa Shem,
We are happy to inform you that you are accepted in Hogwarts. A letter was sent out to your mother earlier. We will sort you first and before the school doors are opened. You will accompany your house to their table for the rest of the years spent here. Hopefully you will enjoy this privilege. You list would have been sent out to you, but unfortunately Mrs. Weasly insisted she buy your things. What you need for sure though, is your own wonderful dress for a lovely thing happening this year. See you at the school.
Professor Albus Dumbledore.
Alisa threw it aside and said to herself, "A lovely dress huh? I'll show you a lovely dress. Alisa pulled out all her clothes she was planning to bring to Hogwarts. She smiled as she threw all seven of her dresses in her trunk. Than the clothes. Alisa smiled as she put in her kitten toys and her wand. She looked at her trunk than her CD player and CD's. She stuffed those in to.
Alisa laid down and read her book. When she got hungry she went downstairs to eat. When she got thirsty she went downstairs to drink. Finally it was night and she was tired. She picked up her kitten and said quietly, "I don't want to spend at least three days with anyone accept you." Alisa slipped on her night gown thing and laid down and put the kitten on her bed. The next day continued exactly like that. People did try to get her to talk but she never really did.
The day after that, she woke up with a start. She had the same dream as she did in the car. Accept the screeching turned out to be her kitten meowing. Alisa sat up and held her head. It felt a bit funny. Sort of, light, but it did every morning so it didn't bother her. She put on some army pants and a black tank top. She ran down the stairs and ran into Harry.
Harry said blushing, "Oh, hi Alisa! I haven't seen you in a day. Were you sick?" Alisa shook her head and stared into Harry's eyes. Harry said still blushing, "I uh, was wondering if you think you'll get into Gryffindor."
Alisa put her hands in her pockets and said looking behind Harry at the armour, "Well, uh, I'm not sire. I mean I'm brave be soul if I have a motive, and loyal to those I admire but uh, I'm not that pure. No, not with other guys."
Harry laughed. He smiled and touched Alisa's pale arm. He said grabbing it and pulling it close to his face, "Wow! You're so pale! You look dead."
Alisa pulled her arm away nervously. She held where Harry had touched it. She said looking up at him, "Uh, thanks I guess. You're um, tall...and um pale too. Don't go outside much? By the way, is anyone awake?"
Harry shrugged. He asked Alisa trying not to laugh, "Did you get any kind of dress rode thing, or dress for the lovely things happening this year? I have a sort of dressy robe." He put his hand in his pocket too.
Alisa said smiling evilly, "Oh I have a dress alright. In fact, I have about seven. I'm bringing them all. I bet there is going to be dances for like, the ceremonies. At the end of the year, I bet they are going to call in a huge carriage carry all the graduates out."
Harry shrugged. He began walking up the stairs. He stopped and turned around. He said to Alisa, "You know, you're so different from Hermione. I mean, she's funny but not like you. You just amuse me with the things that you say."
Alisa widened her eyes. She stepped away from Harry and said patting his shoulder from a distance, "Yeah. Good try there Harry. You'll never really be fly with girls. The only reason Cho kissed you was because she knew how famous you are." Harry smiled weakly but Alisa just shook her head.
Alisa stepped down some more of the steps. Harry said after her, "Alisa, the twins both really fancy you. I thought that maybe you'd like to know how they feel about you. Ron also thinks you're kind of cute." Alisa stopped in her tracks at the word 'fancy.' She turned around and looked Harry in the eyes.
Alisa sighed and looked at her bony fingers. She was pretty much really skinny. Alisa held the railing of the stairs at the bottom. She drummed her fingers on it thinking of a plot to lure George or Fred in. Then with that slowly break away from him and attract Malfoy. She asked Harry with all interest possible, "When did they say this?"
Harry shrugged realizing he had got her attention. He said looking at her evilly, "Yesterday. While we where outside discussing people. You know people from school. Ginny seems to also sort of look up to you. She says that you are really cool."
Alisa didn't look at him again. She said running into the kitchen, "Thanks." She stopped and had a sudden idea. She turned around and called after Harry, "Harry! Do you want all of us to go watch a movie? All the kids, you know."
Harry said turning around and sitting in the middle of the stairs, "Um, I'm not that sure considering, more than half of them are wizards and may con muggles or, freak out at the technology."
Alisa sighed deeply and sat down beside Harry. She saw Fred walking into the kitchen only wearing boxer shorts. She asked Harry with all interest, "Is Hogwarts interesting at all? I mean a lot of things happened in the past there, but without things like that, do you about anything?"
Harry shrugged and said, "All I heard was we are having some sort of ceremony because someone is coming. You know, someone really famous. Someone who was thought to be dead and found three years later in a pit dying of hunger, and a town was well fed right beside it. Apparently he had saved the town but fell into a hole and was lost for three yeas. I think it's sort of stupid."
Fred came out of the kitchen with a sandwich. He said taking a huge bite, "I think he ate insects and had everything he needed right there with him. Accept his wand. He may have had some food in bags. But I highly doubt he's the reason. He lives somewhere in London and anybody could just go and talk to him. I think there's someone...Harry, do you think that this years teacher is going to be someone cool?"
Harry answered, "Why would you care that much? You're not going to go to school again. You own that shop."
Fred answered rather angrily, "Well, we were invited to the ball for some jokes, but Dumbledore made us promise to not have anything too dangerous. Also, we know why you are going and we won't tell you. Now our shop had been ignored for long enough...I'm leaving and I'll see you two tonight!" And then he was gone. Just gone.
