Chapter 7
Harry woke up on the September first, anxious for some reason. He had the feeling that something important was going to happen today, but blew it off as him being excited about school. Hogwarts, his home away from home. He had left it only two months ago and he couldn't wait to get back. He got dressed, gathered his trunk that he had packed the previous night, grabbed Hedwig's cage and walk downstairs to breakfast. He was surprised how ready everyone was compared to the usual mass hysteria that came with the beginning of the school term.
He looked around at the Guard, Mr. and Mrs. Weasly, Ron, and Hermonie; and felt as something missing as he bit into his toast. Then it hit him. Ginny! Everyone else seemed to be looking up the stairs waiting for her to get down and when she finally did she as not the same Ginny that had went to bed last night. She had put on a push-up bra, dabbed on make-up, and had put her hair into a high ponytail. She looked more like she was eighteen than almost fifteen.
Everyone was speechless except for Mrs. Weasly who began to shout complaints at her. Everyone shook their heads and began to walk out the door. They called the Knight Bus and boarded with a new Ginny and a grumpy Mrs. Weasly. The trip to Platform 9 ¾ was exactly the same as his previous journey he had made. Harry couldn't shake the of anticipation. What was causing it?
They arrived at the train station at 11:35. Mrs. Weasly began to check that everyone had his or her things. She then announced for Ron to cross over through the barrier but Ron didn't move. Instead, he was staring with his mouth open and a dazed look in his eye. Harry turned to see exactly what Ron was looking at and found it immediately.
Ron was staring at a gorgeous black girl. She was a few inches shorter than Harry, with long wavy black hair, a perfect smile, and hazel eyes. She was wearing muggle clothes: a pair of black low-rise flared jeans, a long chain at her waist, a tight shirt that said "Enchantresses of Sionia" and a rather strange looking pendant. She was walking with a quick pace and her truck was following her as she went onto the platform. Harry suspected she put a spell on it.
Hermonie looked at Ron and snapped her fingers in front of his face. When Ron finally came to, she just scowled at him. Ron gave her a puzzled look and said" What". Hermonie shook her head and walked through the barrier. Ron and Ginny followed. If Harry walked through the barrier he couldn't remember, because his mind had instantly frozen once he had seen that girl.
After saying goodbye to the Auror Guard and Mr. and Mrs. Weasly, the three of them boarded the Hogwarts Express. They made their way to the back of the train to an empty compartment. Neville was the only one in a compartment so they quickly joined him. The group started to catch up after the holidays when Luna Lovegood entered the compartment. She sat down her things on a rack and sat down with a quick "hello". Harry and the others quickly walked over to each her and were just about to ask her how was her summer when the compartment door once again opened. Harry was the first to turn around. Then he saw her. The girl from the platform. She stood there with a gentle yet somehow fierce look on her face.
She looked around the compartment at glanced at each face. She stopped when she saw Neville. " Nevy " she said. "Nevy, I haven't seen you since we were eight".
Neville squinted at her and then said, "Harriet. Harriet is that you?" The girl nodded and she and Neville became engulfed in an examination of each other and a fit of greeting and "how have you beens"
Once they finished Neville turned to the rest of the group and said " Guys, this is an old friend of mine Harriet Riley". Neville stirred her straight to Harry and said " Harriet I would like you to meet Harry Potter". That's when she did something no one had ever done to him before. She looked him right and then eye instead of glancing up at his scar. She quickly flattened her bangs on her forehead and looked towards Neville. Ron walked up to Harriet and introduced himself.
"Ron Weasly. That sounds familiar. Do you have four older brothers?
"Yes, actually I have five," replied Ron.
"Well I've met Bill he's really cool, Charlie he's a great pal and good with animals, and Fred and George are hilarious and make wonderful business partners" Harriet replied while ticking each brother off her fingers.
" Business partners?" questioned Ron.
"Yes, I'm currently working with them on selling some of my inventions in their store" stated Harriet.
"So you're the one that's supposed to make them filthy rich," Ron said with amazement in his eyes
Ginny stepped up next to introduce herself. " Hi, I'm Ginny Weasly"
" You must be the upcoming powerful, witch, sister who has every boy at Hogwarts wrapped around her little finger I've heard so much about" Harriet said with a grin.
Ginny blushed and then gave a cocky smile. Then, Luna stepped up to Harriet. " Do you always wear that pendant?" Harry shot Luna an angry look.
" Yes, it's very special to me. It was given to me by a good friend" Harriet said with a laugh. Harry enjoyed her laugh. Then it hit him. He had heard that soft laugh before, but where? He racked his brain for an answer.
Meanwhile, Hermonie finally made her way over to Harriet. " Hermonie Granger"
" Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh, you're the clever witch aren't you? Harriet said with a smile.
" Well……………," said Hermonie blushing.
" Oh come off it. You were top of your class at Hogwarts were you not?" stated with a shy smile.
" Were?" said Hermonie. " Last I checked I still was".
" Well…………..," said Harriet. She looked as if she didn't want to reveal something. " Never mind".
" What is it?" said Hermonie with an agitated look on her face.
" Well, I just transferred to Hogwarts and I am now top of the sixth year class", Harriet stated quickly.
The tension in the group thickened. Everyone was quiet and no one new what to do next. Harry stood there and stared at Harriet pendant. It was silver. It appeared that a dark blue stone was some how resting between to silver prongs and a silver, cloudy fluid surrounded all this, and it was held my a glass container wrapped with silver engraving that seemed like ancient runes. Harry was then awaken from his dream like stare by the sound of a door slamming.
Draco Malfoy stepped into their compartment. His usual cronies Crabbe and Goyle accompanied him. Draco stared around at the group and muttered, " The usual freaks I see." Then he noticed Harriet. He cockily waltzed straight up to Harriet and said with a sinister smile, " I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. I'm sure you're both charmed and pleasured and so am I."
" Draco? Draco Malfoy? Are you perhaps Lucius Malfoy's son?" she replied with a flirty grin. Harry's heart dropped. He couldn't believe she was flirting with him.
" Yes, I am. You know my father I see", Draco said with an even more sinister smile.
" Well, well, well", stated Harriet her grin disappearing. " If it isn't the Death Eaters' son who look like death just ate him." (Corny I know) Harriet walked up to Draco with a certain look of great loathing. " I know all about you and your disgrace of a family!!!!!!!!!!!! How dare you even utter the word freak to anyone but yourself !!!!!! I can't stand your kind especially people like Lucius Malfoy, and those Lestranges!!!!!!!! Get of my sight you idiotic fool!!!!!!"
" How dare you talk to me like that! Just who the hell do you think you are anyway? You will pay for that !!!!!!" Draco raised his wand at Harriet, but she was to fast for him. She muttered a spell Harry had never heard before and a blazing blue light his Draco with incredible force. Draco flew across the room. He then started to change. His clothes, face, everything. Draco looked like a drag queen gone wrong. Then his image changed again. Draco screamed as he realized what was happening. He was changing form into comical characters at and increasing rate. Crabbe and Goyle hid their own laughter as Draco fled the room and the followed him with scowls and giggles.
Harriet turned to the shocked faces of the group. She then began to apologize for her behavior, but was interrupted by a crowd of cheers and pats on the back. She smiled at everyone's faces then looked at Hermonie who stood back from the crowd with a look of disgust on her face. "Well", she said " I for one thought that was most appalling and as a school prefect I should report you. Everyone in the compartment turned to Hermonie with a look of disbelief on his or her face.
Ron was the first to speak. "What are you talking about! That was incredible! Don't be such a grouch Hermonie!"
" Well, Ron" replied Hermonie, " I expected more out of a Gryffindor prefect! They both began to argue but were broken up by Harriet herself.
" Hey, look I'm sorry for behaving in such a manner, but I'm not sorry for what I did. He deserved it for all the trouble that his kind has caused" she said with an angry voice.
" Well" said Hermonie, "You should feel horrible about breaking rules little Miss perfect!"
" Listen" replied Harriet, " I know you might be jealous about my beating you but that's no excuse for acting like I'm some snob!" They began to argue until finally Harriet said, "Look you don 't have to be friends with me. I haven't even been sorted yet so you might not have to put up with me. Sorry I upset you let's just calm down and enjoy the ride." Harry's heart sank she was transferring into his year but she wasn't going to see him that much if she wasn't in Gryffindor.
Just then the trolley came. Harry went up to it about to purchase some chocolate frogs and pumpkin pastries when he noticed some new items. "Electrifying Elixir and Sherbet Shine". He purchased them along with the frogs and pastries. When he returned he found Harriet in a corner read " Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them" and eating a sandwich triangle. She looked up at Harry. Their eyes met and they both quickly looked away.
" What's that you've got there Harry?" said Ron.
" Some new candy items, what to try them?" replied Harry. Harry noticed Harriet looking at them. Ron toke Sherbet Shine. He bit into the candy shaped like a sun. As soon as he had swallowed it Ron began to glow. Everyone looked grabbed a candy a bit into it. They were soon all glowing. Harry turned to Harriet and said, "Want to try some?" She shook her head and then turned to her book again. The effect of the candy wore off after about 20 minutes. Harry tried the Electrifying Elixir next. He opened the little bottles that came in the package. He drank it and soon felt a small shock. He soon went into a spasm of shocks none hurt to bad just enough to get your full attention. Everyone soon joined him in the shocks.
" Do you enjoy them?" asked Harriet.
"Yes!" replied the group.
" Good then, they should be quite good sellers. Considering how little the effects last. I wanted to get the right amount of time." she stated before returning to the book.
" You invented them?" asked Ron.
" Check the label" she said. Harry checked the label for himself. It read "Weasly Wizard Whizzes" and below the "Enchanting Enterprises".
" Are you Enchanting Enterprises?" asked Harry.
" Yes" she said " I told you I was working with Fred and George"
" Can I ask you a question ?" asked Harry.
" You just did, but you can ask another" said Harriet with a grin.
" Where did you go to school before you transferred to Hogwarts?" Harry asked.
" I toke private lessons from the Hogwarts professors themselves" she stated. " I transferred to really grasp my subjects for my N.E.W.T.S."
Just then, the train gave a sudden lurch as it came to a stop. Harriet fell right on top of Harry. She struggle to get up but the only way she could through the swarm of everyone else was to push of Harry's legs. Harry pleased with himself, but it was to no avail. Where and the way she was touching him was making him very excited. He tried imagining Snape in a bikini but it was too late. Harriet felt him on the back of her thigh and immediately got up. She gave Harry a look between shock and hatred. She then replied" You're just as I thought you would be". She then whistled to her trunk and it followed her out of the door.
Everyone looked at Harry. He couldn't believe he'd blown it and he'd only known her for a couple of hours. Everyone gathered their belonging and made their way off of the train. Harry looked up to see Hadgrid chatting cheerfully with Harriet trying to get her to smile. Hadgrid looked at Harry and shook his head. " What next?" Harry wondered.
