Yeah. The last chapter was very short. I'm very sorry about that. I'm going to be updating very slow for awhile because of school (which I've just started and I've had homework everyday), and my updating might fluctuate a little bit until I get more situated with my homework schedule. Either that, or until my Chemistry (I'm in AP) teacher stops giving homework, which won't happen. Anyway, enough rambles. Onward!

Harry Potter is 'Charmed'By Crushette
Chapter 6: The Arrival at Hogwarts
As everyone finished laughing, Phoebe started to count on her fingers. "Remus, what happened to the third year teacher? You didn't mention them." After Phoebe said this, silence swept over everyone and Harry looked down at his feet and then back up to Remus. Hermione looked from Remus to Phoebe. Feeling the mixed emotions from everyone, Phoebe looked at Remus.
"I was the third year DADA teacher." Phoebe's eyes widened with realization.
"Yeah. That's right!" Phoebe squinted her eyes in thought as she looked at Remus. "There was something special about you.... something that was the reason why you left...." As if on cue, Mrs. Weasley scurried in.
"Come one! Come on! The train will leave without you!" she shouted as she ushered them to their things. When everything was all set together, they all gathered around Remus and Mrs. Weasley. Mrs. Weasley pulled an extremely long wooden spoon from her pocket.
"What's that for?" Paige asked as she eyed the spoon.
"It's a portkey. Now each of you grab a side then. Come on." Everyone each grabbed hold. As soon as everyone's hands were touching the spoon, a jolt went through them. Everything seemed to be going past them in a blur. As suddenly as the pulling began, it stopped and they were all standing next to a train. The trains' blue smoke came out in great big puffs and the train itself sat shining in black and red. The "Hogwarts Express" was written on the front. Children and teens, some in robes others in normal garb, said good bye to their families and went aboard the train, lugging their bags behind them.
"Now all of you get aboard. It'll be leaving soon. Do you three have your lunches?" Mrs. Weasley looked at Harry, Hermione, and Ron who each nodded and showed her the paper bag with their sandwich and apple inside. "Good. Now you three be good and stay out of mischief." She looked intently at them. After getting a kiss on the head and a hug, Harry, Ron and Hermione walked off. Phoebe, Piper and Paige were about to follow when Remus told them to stay.
"You three will need to talk with Professor Dumbledore when you arrive at Hogwarts. Don't worry, you will have someone there to show you to his office. Just do not forget to see him, and remember you must not tell anyone who you truly are." They nodded. "OK."
Mrs. Weasley straightened and sighed. "Now you better go before the train leaves without you. Write if you need anything!" With a cheery smile, she Apparated away. Remus smiled and he to disappeared. Lugging their bags, the Charmed Ones boarded the train.
---------------
"What do you think of the Charmed Ones?" Hermione asked Harry and Ron once they were settled in a compartment.
"I don't know. I think they are all right. A bit weird though." Harry said as he was pushing their bags in to the spaces above them.
"Yeah, I think so to. But they are absolutely awesome! I mean, they can do magic without a wand! They've got to be bloody powerful." Ron said as half-smiled and shook his head.
"I myself agree with both of you." Hermione stated matter-of-factly. "I think they would help us a great deal with you know." Harry and Ron nodded knowingly.
"I'm more curious about what their class is going to be like. Maybe they're going to teach us how to do magic without our wands! That would be awesome!" Ron said smiling broadly.
"Yes, I'm looking forward to their class too. I would like to see how their sort, not to be rude or anything I just couldn't think of anything else to call them, do magic. Should be very interesting." Hermione smiled as she thought about how many new things she'd be learning.
----------------
"I wonder where we're supposed to go?" Piper asked as the three sisters walked down the aisle on the train.
"Well we need to find a compartment." Paige said.
"I could've figured that one out, thanks." Piper said as she opened a compartment. "Hey, this one's empty." The three sisters went in and made themselves comfortable.
"Do you guys think that we've made the right choice?" Paige asked when they were all seated.
"Why? You meansitting in this compartment?" Phoebe said,
"No. I mean this could be a demon's trick." Paige said looking from Piper to Phoebe.
"Now, how could this be a demon trick?" Phoebe said.
"Well...they could have chosen a magical book that was famous and then like made it real?" Paige said not even believing her own words.
"Oh yeah." Phoebe said. "They just have all the time in the world to sit down, read the book, and plan the whole illusion up to our deaths. I can see it now "Hey this is a good book. We should trick the Charmed Ones into thinking it became real and kill them!"" Phoebe said sarcastically, and Piper and Phoebe laughed. Paige just "Humph-ed. "Nah, I'm just kidding. It's a possibility, but a very small one. It's so small, we shouldn't even consider it."
"Yeah. I guess you're right. Just forget about it okay?" Paige said after thinking about it. For the rest of the trip, they just talked about random things they haven't been able to tell each other.
---------------
After a few hours, they finally arrived at Hogwarts.
"Wow. That's Hogwarts." Phoebe said as she stood gaping at the huge stone castle that was Hogwarts.
"I guess so.... Wow." Piper said, she to gaping at the castle.
"The Halliwell sisters?" A female voice from the side asked. They turned and faced the voice.
"Yes." The sisters answered. A strict looking elderly woman stood before them. She wore Deep green robes and a large green hat with a feather sticking out.
"I'm Minerva McGonagall. Please follow me and I'll show you to Professor Dumbledore." She turned and began to walk away.
"But, what about our stuff?" Phoebe asked.
"It's already waiting in your room." Minerva said without even turning around or stopping.
When they made it to Dumbledore's office, Minerva said the password and left the sisters there to speak with Dumbledore, saying something about having to sort the first years.
"Welcome." He said as they walked in. He was standing and he was dressed in a dark purple cloak that seemed to have gold designs all over it. "I believe you've had a pleasant time coming here." The sisters nodded. "Good. We can't talk now for we must go to the Arrival Ceremony."
"The what?" Phoebe asked.
"The Arrival Ceremony is where the first years are sorted and I explain all the happenings that are going on this year. It's also where I introduce you to the students." He looked at them, his eyes twinkling behind his crescent shaped glasses. "Come, we must go, for we will be late. You wouldn't want to be late for your own introductions would you?" with that Dumbledore waved his hand and they all
Apparated to the Great Hall.
