Chapter 11 – The Talk

The group of students talked boisterously behind the silent professors as they made their way to Dumbledore's office. Harry and Maria were in a heated discussion about an element in potions she didn't understand. Diana and Izzy were adding comments, but were mostly talking with Anna about the castle as they memorized the path taken. "But why would you add scarab beetles? It doesn't make sense, wouldn't that create an unbalanced reaction in the end?" Maria said sounding exasperated.

Just as Harry was going to answer Snape snapped -grin-, "Because the density of the scarab beetles and their acidic nature returns the potion to a stable state."

"OH. OK, that explains it then. Thank you," Maria said innocently as they came to a stop infront of the gargoyle guarding Dumbledore's office. Snape looked slightly taken a back from the statement; Harry also looked taken aback, 'Was she just... nice to Snape!?'

"Well what did you expect from us? We are nice in general, and we all think that he is very brave to fight for the light while spying on Voldemort," Diana and Anna said at the same time.

"What! I didn't say anything!" Harry exclaimed.

"But that doesn't mean we didn't hear you," Anna said quietly. Harry looked shocked at that statement but quickly wiped his face as Dumbledore began to speak.

"I know it was something Australian." The triplets face fell then looked at Diana.

"What!?" Diana yelled.

"Say something."

"Like what?"

"Something in Australian."

"You know perfectly well there isn't a language called Australian," Diana said slipping into her accent.

"Just say something!" the triplets yelled back.

"FINE, Wooloomoolu, Aborigine, Wollongong, Uularoo, Ayes Rock, Outback, Perth, Sydney, Canberra, Attalaide, Boonies, Billabong," the gargoyle jumped aside. "OH for crying out loud! What kind of a password is that?!" Diana yelled in exasperation. As she huffed up the stairs after Dumbledore, who was grinning like a fool.

The triplets laughing hysterically behind her. –Just so you know they really do laugh all the time, and mostly at me. – The others were looking shocked at the Australian girl walking up the spiral stairs, but quickly snapped out of it once Dumbledore opened his office door.

"How are we all going to fit in her?" Diana said her accent seemed to be on permanently. 'Hey it's kind of cute,' Harry thought.

"ARG Don't even start thinking that! I hate it when I switch accents every ten minutes," Diana said sounding even more exasperated switching back to an American accent. Harry blushed lightly as he realized she had heard him. Anna smirked because she caught the way he thought 'cute'.

Dumbledore motioned for them to come in, then went behind his desk and pulled a book off the shelf. A part of the wall to his left opened.

"OH," Diana sighed.

Dumbledore walked in first followed by the rest of the large group. They were in another room. This one had a large round table with enough chairs for everyone to sit. They all took a seat. –Think of knights of the round table- Dumbledore was at the head with Snape and McGonagall on either side. Remus and Sirius were sitting next to McGonagall. Izzy sat next to Snape, then Maria, Anna, Diana, and Harry.

"Well why don't you tell us how you came to be in this reality," Dumbledore said stippling his fingers as he leaned onto the table.

"Well I was the first to arrive, but I knew my friends were coming too," Anna said in her calming alto voice.

"How did you know they were coming? Juliana...?" McGonagall asked.

"Cobriana. Well that is a long story in itself," Maria said.

"Please, we have plenty of time, Maria...?" Remus said getting more interested.

"Shardae. Well, we all meet in Middle school in America." Izzy started.

"There are three schools: Elementary school, Kindergarten to 5th grade; Middle school, 6th to 8th grade; and High school, 9th to 12th grade," Diana stated again in her Australian accent. "Um, what year 6th or 7th? I guess it depends on the person. Anna and Izzy met in Elementary school, Maria and Izzy met in 6th grade and then Maria met me, but we all became friends in 7th grade. We weren't the greatest of friends until 9th grade though. We were supposed to be in 10th grade this year but it appears we are here instead," Diana said nodding to the others as she mentioned them.

"Continue," Dumbledore said quietly.

"Well as I was saying I was first to arrive, then Maria, then Izzy, and finally Diana," Anna said.

"Yes, but how did you get here?" Sirius asked, actually acting serious.

"Well it was different for everyone, from what I understand. Though not by much," Anna said. "I remember going to sleep in my reality and then... I was dreaming about... well Harry," she nodded to Harry. "The first dream Harry was in the form of an ebony wolf. Diana was in her fox form I was wrapped around her neck as a snake. We were running through this gum tree forest, and then we came to a lake. It was so peaceful and the air tasted of moisture. It smelt like..."

"OK don't go into the summary of the summary of the summary of the summary of the paraphrase summary of the description, of the summary." Maria, Izzy, and Diana said in quick succession. – This is real. In real life she goes off into long descriptive statements, but usually in her writing. -

"What!?" Snape exclaimed.

"Well she would have gone on for over an hour with that description," Izzy stated.

"Anyway, I hissed at him and told him Sirius was coming to get him..."

"Yeah but when you say 'He's coming for you' that doesn't usually say much," Harry mumbled, Diana giggled and smiled brightly at him.

"But what did you expect from her? She does this to us all the time," Diana whispered back behind her hand.

"I don't know how I knew. It was just on the top of my mind. Like we had been sent to do it," Anna said looking meaningfully at Dumbledore, then continued. "After that dream I went into this room. Burgundy walls, comfy chairs, warm crackling fire in the hearth. It looked similar to Gryffindor common room. Lily and James Potter appeared." The adults gasped but let her continue.

"They told me that Harry would be seeing them soon, not die, just visit them They were going to tell him something important, but that is Harry's story so I won't continue with it. Anyway after that I woke up in Harry's back yard, but I wasn't in a human form." Anna stayed seated but transformed into her snake form. When she was done she was in the middle of the table. The adults looked at her in shock; McGonagall in apprehension for doing something that takes years.

Harry hissed at her, ((I think you've shocked them Serpent.)) He grinned. Anna changed back after slithering into her chair.

"But... how?" McGonagall asked.

"I'm not sure. I just knew how to do it when I woke up," Anna shrugged.

"Well my dream was similar. I was in the same room and the Potters showed up, but they just told me I was needed to help Harry. I woke up and I was in the back yard to number 12 Privet Drive," Izzy said as she transformed into her cat form, sat on the table and smiled at the adults. They didn't seem to be as shocked as they were before. She changed back in her seat.

"I was told that I needed to help Harry, but also someone was at Hogwarts that I would like to see. I woke up in a tree, Hedwig was sitting next to me as though she was waiting for me," Maria said as she became her hawk form and sat on the back of the chair. She changed back after a moment.

"Well after the dream with Harry I woke up in my world. I went to my part time job; well it's weird. I got laid off for doing nothing wrong. I'm their best worker and they know it. Anyway, I went home feeling really tired and just passed out on my bed like I hadn't slept for days. I woke up with the Potters standing over me. I think I had been there for a little while, because they were getting worried I wouldn't wake up there," Diana blushed lightly as she thought of what they had told her. The triplets caught it as did Snape but they didn't say anything. "Well they just said I'd help Harry greatly and something about a Pheonix. I woke up and didn't remember it well, but where I woke up was a little more interesting. I was on top of Harry's dresser," She grinned, "it was kind of funny I scared all three of them; which, may I add, is not easily done when I jumped down like this," she transformed into her fox form and sat on the table.

She was about to de-transform when Fawkes came in. He beelined for Harry and sat on his shoulder. He trilled a happy note and then went into a melancholy tuned one. Everyone was starring at Fawkes. They had never heard of a sad phoenix song. Diana's head had shot up and was looking at Fawkes as soon as he had come into the room.

"Phoenix?" Anna asked seeing the emotion play across her eyes.

"Who?" Sirius asked.

"It's Diana's nickname, like Padfoot," Harry said watching the two animals like a tennis match.

('Hold on.') Diana said to everyone, the adults again looked shocked. She de-transformed back in her seat.

"Well how did you expect a fox to communicate?" She rhetorically asked. "Fawkes was saying something about us going to the pitch to do a spell. Something about our powers going haywire if we don't go now." she said as she stood.

"Well let's go then," Sirius said as he stood also.

"Um, I'm sorry, but you may get hurt. You'll have to wait for us. We'll meet you in the Great Hall for lunch when we are done."

"Are we coming?" Izzy said indicating to the other two.

"Yes," they all stood and started out the door. Fawkes was now on Diana's shoulder. They appeared to be in a heated conversation. They went off towards the pitch.

-OK that is Chapter 11 did you like it? Hope so, anyway. I have the next chapter written I just have to type it (like every chapter). But I will hopefully get it up this weekend.
