Okay, not really. One can wish though, right, especially if she is the Ruler of her own Universe? Only Jaessa belongs to me. Go under my favorite authors to 'The Red Haired One' and read the Lily Potter story to find out where the rest come from.

Hogwarts Express
Well, I convinced Mum to bring us to the station early. I sort of lied and said that seventh years needed to be here earlier than everyone else. But, at least I got my favorite compartment of the whole train before any first years. Last year, I had to throw the first years out of here. They are getting so rebellious and disrespectful so early nowadays! But, it was a bit easier since I was a prefect last year.
Now, I've got to think about some pranks to pull on people. I pre-arranged something with Peeves. He's actually pretty agreeable when you tell him that you know Fred and George Weasley personally. And, for some reason, Peeves thinks I can hurt him...maybe it has something to do with the prank I pulled on him?
Hmm...all I really need is to come up with something good I can pull to get Libby back. Maybe I can write my own charm!
...............................................
Too hard! A simple sticking charm added on to the spell I want to use may work though. She's not too bright, and she's very proud, so she wouldn't want to admit to needing help. Now, where did I put that N.E.W.T. Charms book?

Hogwarts Express still
I think we just pulled out, but I'm not positive. I got the compartment with no windows. It's the very last compartment on the train. And no one's come to tell me we've pulled out. Then again, I did scare away the third years a while back while I was searching for my charms book. Can you believe that it somehow got inside of my CD player? I think Bray charmed it again on me. It's sort of a personal joke, something to do with fifth year Charms class.
Anyway, if I want to pull this off successfully, I should probably go find Libby and hope that I can steal her wand for a few minutes. Though it shouldn't be that hard- she rarely notices anything going on unless it has to do with herself- I should have a distraction planned. Maybe I can convince her that I'm really hungry and that if she wanted to save herself, she needs to go find me some blood pops. But that's really mean and cruel, even for me. And then she'd eventually figure out that I did it. Then again, she wouldn't tell on me. She's too proud to admit defeat, even to get someone else into trouble. And there's the fact that she's kind of scared of me and of accusing me of anything. I don't know why though...
This'll be sweet, dude...

It's done. Now, we've just got to wait until she tries to cast a spell. It should have some very interesting results!
Now, I can leave pranks on first years up to Peeves when we get to Hogwarts. The shades are closed (why are there shades if there are no windows?), and I already committed all of this years' books to memory...Good! I don't have anything to do until we get to Hogwarts. Now, maybe I can take a nap. For the pure reason of needing to look innocent, of course. Never would I be tired!

Still September 1
Just barely
Well, the prank totally worked! Dare I write what I did? Yep, I dare. Every time Libby tried a spell, her clothing was changed, one piece per spell, into a black, gothic or punk-ish type of clothing. Oh, and then her hair was made into a mohawk and dyed bright pink. Totally awesome. She freaked. I loved it! I think all of us punks and goths (we're all self-proclaimed) were waiting for forever for something like this to happen.
Anyway, nothing else exciting happened. Peeves couldn't pull off his pranks, because he was caught by Snape, the old bat. I mean, the best Head of House ever! So the first years are safe, for now, at least. No one yelled at me for my black shirts yet either. Not that they noticed. They were too busy trying to find the Sorting Hat. Maybe that was the prank Peeves planned...
Oh, all the first years are shrimps! They couldn't have been this small last year. And I was most definitely never that small! I mean, I think the tallest first year can't be any taller than 4 foot 3 inches...wait! When did I start thinking in the English System? I mean, they can't be any taller than 131 centemetres, or 1.31 metres. Really shrimpy, right?!
I really should look into the thinking the American way. Sort of scary, as I'm not even related to anyone who lives in the United States. I'm Irish, for goodness sakes! I should be using Gaelic terms, or summat (something) like that!
Anyway, Remus brought his Lappy with the DVD player. Remus is one of Lily's brothers. He's also Head Boy this year. I think he's my favorite of Lily's brothers. Of course, I know him the best, and we are best friends, besides Bray.
So, about the Lappy (that's the laptop, but we call it the Lappy). Remus said that as soon as he can get his hands on it, I can come over and watch the RHPS (that's the Rocky Horror Picture Show). I can't wait for it! That's an awesome movie!

Muggle Studies?
How did I get signed up for Muggle Studies, may I ask?!! I live with Muggles, thank you very much! Why would I need this stupid three hour class?
Sorry about not writing lately. It seems that somehow I've been signed up or volunteered to help out the first years. I just don't get it. I never signed up for that either! And the stupid first years won't leave me alone! They even try to follow me to the washroom! Luckily, the new Slytherin prefects happen to like me and they felt sorry for me. So they gave me the password of the Prefect Bath.
The first years won't even leave me alone for my nightly walk around the fourth floor! They will follow me everywhere I go. I had to lock myself in a closet just to get some sleep! And now I'm taking this class I didn't know I had. So, I've decided to take the time to write.
They weren't even scared by the fact that I'm half vampire. Or that I could drink their blood at any moment, if I would happen to snap. Now that interested me a bit. When I asked, they just said that they'd be blood- bonded to me then. Which in turn scared me! I don't want no first years always hanging on me...I didn't even try to point out they would be wrong though, even when I recovered. Let them think what they want.
Hey! Did you know that 222 multiplied by 3 gives you 666, or the number signifying that devil according to some Christian religions? And this class seems like the class from hell...is this just a coinkidink?

hiding in a closet
Fluff is Horror!! I think that Drew and Bray need to get a room when they want to 'talk.' It's disgusting. I mean, really, in front of your sister? Both of them even, 'cause Drew is nearly Lily's sister, with him always getting in trouble with Lily's brothers...And knowing your sister doesn't have anyone. And then Lily, who obviously likes Dan, was there, as I've said, and Dan was, but Dan is nearly oblivious to Lily's liking him. I mean, it's just rude to do that in front of me! And then, they make it worse by saying that they don't even like each other. Can you believe that?
On the bright side, the first years have stopped following me. I guess they finally figured out that I wasn't going to help them. Or maybe they finally read those books that I kept falling on them in the Library. I dunno. Maybe they decided that they don't want to be late to any more of their classes. I guess it could just be that they finally got a general idea of where everything is in the castle...that would be scary. First years aren't allowed to be that smart until at least October! I certain hope they haven't figured out the lay out of the castle...
You know, nobody has mentioned my black shirts yet. I'm starting to wonder why. Maybe I should ask Bray or Lily. They may know something. While I wasn't expecting trouble, I was expecting the professors to comment on them, you know?
I think it's safe to get out of this closet now. Though I don't think I'll be going back to my dorm room right away. Maybe Nobbie, a house elf, will let me stay in the Kitchens for a while tonight...

This is a trick closet so now I'm trapped in here. HELP!
Maybe the Bloody Baron is around here to get me out...
September 9 2:56 am
crying furiously in my locked dorm room
I...am crying...so hard right now...that I can...barely write. I...have been scarred...for life. And...I am never...talking to Bray...again.
Excuse me...I need to calm down...

Okay, I think I can write without crying now. Those are tears, sorry. Okay, so you know that I go for a walk around the fourth floor corridor every night to clear my head. Well, I got a late start tonight because Nobbie held me in the Kitchens a bit late, feeding me ice cream. But, I finally got started out at about one-ish.
So I'm walking along and everything is fine, you see. Everything is going swell. Haven't run into anyone, and there are no professors or prefects anywhere near the fourth floor (I just love Fred and George for giving me a copy of the Marauder's Map). So I turn the corner and start down the hall with the statue of Uric the Oddball, one of my favorite corridors. That's where it all happened.
I saw Bray and Drew snogging by my favorite statues, the ones of Uric! Honest to Buddha, they could've used a bed, it looked that bad to me! Not to mention, Lily was there taking pictures. So, I chased her to the Gryffindor Tower. Bray and Drew where behind me. While I didn't get the camera from Lily, I got another show. Bray and Drew stood there making out some more! That's when I when I screamed, "Jesu Christo! What are you people, rabbits?" And I ran away crying. I heard Lily yelling in the background. Bray didn't even follow to see if I was okay...how could my sister, my twin, do this to me?
I ran back here, to the seventh year girls dorm which only me and Bray occupy. But, I locked the door, so if Bray wants to sleep tonight, she'll have to find somewhere else. How could Bray do that? She knows I hate watching that fluffy stuff. And, to make it worse, I sort of had a crush on Drew for a tiny bit this summer!
I'm owling Remus. Maybe he can lend me the RHPS. No, wait. I'm having a Star Wars movie fest tonight. Luckily, I have no classes until after Lunch on Thursdays and today is Thursday. Maybe I'll skip my afternoon class. I want ice cream...
And I need more tissues...I'm going to start crying again before I send Bray a personal Howler.
Jay
3:42 am
Dorm Room
Well, I just finished my Howler to Bray. I put it in my signature green envelope. Actually, that's now an option for Howlers, though I'm the only person that I know who uses that option. I wonder why? It makes it so much more personal if you send mail, any mail at all, in your favorite colors.
Luckily, my owl Keira just happens to be in my dorm tonight. I'm going to send this off now. I wonder where Bray is? Well, hopefully she's in a sound- proofed room. Otherwise, she'll be wickedly embarrassed. Wait, in that case, I hope she's in a public place...
Someone's banging on the door. I'm going to send this off now, and then I'm putting in my movies...
Jay
7 ½ minutes later
I guess it was Bray who was banging on the door. The Howler I sent just went off. So now all of Slytherin knows about her and Drew. Some people won't be too happy I predict.
I wonder how owls find the addressee of the letters?

A/N: Sorry, I planned on putting up this chapter on Friday, but I was busy and tired. marching Band has started up again, so I'll be busy.
Now, I know you want to review. Right? It'll make me happy. Especially if it's random. If it's random enough, I may borrow it for my story. You never know. I happen to be an insomniac sometimes and get crazy ideas...
So, please review. I need to know what you want to read! Love to you all,
Jaessa
