Chapter 2

The Leaving Song

Ginny woke up at sunrise; she was too excited to sleep any longer for that day was THE day when she would be traveling to South America all by herself. These past few weeks had been really hectic, Hermione insisted that Ginny should read all her books on International schools and about the different countries and Mrs. Weasley kept breaking into tears whenever the trip was mentioned. In the end Ginny had accepted Hermione's help basically because she was tiered of her constant yapping so finally they had both decided that the best place was Santiago, Chile. (A/N I know you saw that coming a mile away but whatever)

They found out that the Wizarding School in Chile was famous for its advanced courses in Potions and Transfiguration, that where Ginny's best subjects, it also held N.E.W.Ts at the end of the school year like Hogwarts. The school was actually British; most of the classes were in English and had a variety of students from all over the world even though it had a majority of Chilean students. Ginny read in Hermione's books, that as part of the curriculum everyone had to study a course called Ancient Magic that as far as Ginny knew consisted on learning Ancient spells and rituals of the Mapuche Wizards that lived in Chile before the Spanish arrived and nearly killed them all. Ginny was fascinated with what she read and couldn't wait to start school, specially her Ancient magic course.

A few days after Ginny had sent the permission slip with the country she wanted and her parent's signature, Professor McGonagall arrived at The Burrow to talk through the details of the trip. Ginny was to travel by International portkey the 17th of August, two weeks before the start of term, the portkey time was at 11 am and as all International portkeys left from the Ministry of Magic portkey headquarters. Upon arrival in Santiago Ginny was going to be picked up by her host family and travel to their home. The first two weeks Ginny was going to spend checking out the sights and getting her stuff for school with her host family.

She learned that she was going to stay with the Santa Maria family, Mr. Santa Maria worked with the British Embassy in Santiago and was a very respected diplomat and Mrs. Santa Maria was a Medi Witch that worked part time. They had two daughters; Javiera who was 17 and was also a seventh year and Josefina who was 20 and went to the university. Ginny was thrilled with this, never in her life had she lived with a girl around her age to talk and become friends with. Living with six older brothers made you want female interaction, sure she had Hermione but they really weren't good friends, they mearly understood each other.

And today was finally the 17th and there was no way that Ginny could go back to sleep. She took a quick shower, got dressed in her best out fit that turned out to be a nice pair of jeans and a white button up shirt, she brushed her hair and stared at her room. She leaving for a whole year, she checked and double-checked that she had everything and then waited for the rest of the people in the house to wake up.

A few hours later everybody was in the kitchen eating breakfast but Ginny was too nervous to eat anything, she stared at her wrist watch hoping that the time would go by faster so that she could be on her way to the Ministry for her portkey. Finally everyone was done and ready to go, she checked again her stuff and shrunk her trunk so that it would be able to fit in her pocket. (She had turned 17, which meant that she was of age)

They all traveled by car to the Ministry; Mr. Weasley had borrowed again a car so the ride was fairly short, and arrived at a shabby looking street with a few offices and a pub. They got off the car and walked up to an old red telephone booth, it had some missing panes of glass and was in front of a wall full of graffiti. Mr. Weasley had gone to park the car so Mrs. Weasley and Ginny got in first; Mrs. Weasley picked up the receiver and dialed 6-2-4-4-2 (MAGIC); as soon as she did this, a vice was heard.

"Welcome to the Ministry of Magic. Please state your name and business," the female voice said.

"Ginevra Weasley and Mrs. Weasley here for the 11am portkey to Santiago, Chile" Said Mrs. Weasley with a formal tone.

"Thank you," said the cool female voice. "Visitors, please take the respective badges and attach it to the front of your robes."

Two silver badges reading 'Ginevra Weasley, portkey transportation' and 'Mrs. Weasley, portkey transportation' fell from the metal chute and they each pinned them to the front of their clothes.

The booth then started its decent very slowly while the cold female voice said "Visitors to the Ministry, you are required to submit to a search and present your wand for registration at the security desk, which is located at the far end of the Atrium. Portkey departure stations at the end of the hall."

The booth stopped and they stepped out onto the Hall and quickly went to get their wands registered and finally walked to the portkey departure stations. They were checking the departure time when the rest joined them; all of whom had silver badges on their clothes except Mr. Weasley whom didn't have to because he worked here.

It was a big room filled with wizards and witches; some saying good bye to their families and loved ones, others were Ministry employees in charge of collecting the tickets and showing the people around. There was a large cue in the other end of the room for people to go to the different portkey stations. Ginny's portkey was little behind schedule, it was now leaving at 11:30 from station number 6.

It was now 11 and Ginny had to go through the checkpoint, she said good bye to everyone but Mrs. Weasley would break into tears and hug her over and over again, once she calmed down Ginny said good bye and went through the checkpoint without difficulties. A Ministry Wizard escorted her to station 6 and took her ticket, there were about 20 people going on the same portkey. She had to wait for about 10 minutes when a vice through the speaker announced their departure in 1 minute. The Ministry Wizard told them to hold the portkey that turned out to be an old soda can, she waited until she felt the familiar sensation of a pull bellow her navel and dizziness.


Author's Note: Not much of a cliffie but more to come soon, already finishing chapter 3. The Title of the chapter is part of a song by AFI called The Leaving Song Part II (btw great song), it doesn't have much to do with it but the title fits for now, might change it later. Also would like to thank all of my reviewers, you guys are great. If anyone would like to make any suggestions of corrections pleas tell me, I really want to make this story great.
