Chapter 1: June 3, 1997

The OWLs broght great stress over Hogwarts. Especially for the 6th years who had realized how terrifying they would be if you didn't study enough. Not that Ginny did badly last year. She had 6 Outstandings, and got Excellents and Satisfactories on everything else. Last year, she worked on it. This year, she was busy. A few months ago, she had auditioned for a part as a singer, for a band. A new record company had opened and got people to audition for parts. They allowed the band to get a style and sing their own songs....but the company could reject their songs if they didn't suit them.

At the present, Lava Bubbles, the name wich was chosen for them, got a song for a radio debut.

Luna turned her radio on. The 6th years exams did
start tommorow, but she wouldn't miss Ginny and Alex's
debut performance for anything. After a few
advertisements, Ginny's beautiful voice, Alex's guitar
and the other band members started.

Alex and Ginny were in a band called Lava Bubbles. It
was an all girl group that they had been working on
for half of a year. They didn't have a whole CD yet,
but they had several good songs.

After the song finished, Luna turned the radio off and
a few minutes later, Ginny and Alex walked through the
newly installed floo system, into the 7th years common
room. Luna was there, with special permission from Dumbledore.

"Did you hear us?" Ginny asked Luna. She was excited
and practically flying.

"Yes, of course," Luna responded. "I promised I
would."

"How were we?" Alex asked. She was so excited and
happy.

"You guys were great!" Luna responded. She smiled.
Luna had never seen Alex so...smiley.

"Where is everyone?" Ginny asked.

"There studying in the common room," Luna anwsered, "I
didn't tell anyone about you two. Really," she added
when Ginny still looked worried. "Though I still don't
understand why-"

"It's hard to explain. I don't want everyone
knowing..." Ginny broke off.

"I'm going to go see Cam," Alex said getting up.
"She's at Coventry right now."

"Bye," Luna said.

"Yeah. See you." Ginny took out some floo powder for
her.

"Thanks!" Alex walked over to the fireplace, "BTW-"

"Excuse me?" Ginny asked. "BTW?"

"What am I? Your dictionary?" Alex raised an eyebrow. "I'll see you this weekend"

"They're going to laugh at me if they find out," she said
softly.

'They' was the Trio, and rest of the 7th years.

"No they won't," Luna reassured Gin, though she didn't think a party would be in store when they realized where Ginny was running off to every week.

"I know," she said softly, "I know."

Ginny had been a good student, turning her homework
in and all that. She was in her 6th year of Hogwarts, and up until
now, juggled singing lessons with schoolwork. She didn't have a lot of
financial help from her parents at the moment, and knew that she had
to have some source of income, by the time, or at least a little
after, she graduated.

Alex, was looking for a part time job to do after high
school to pay for college. She was going to a music
college that fall. She had been doing various
concerts, and another job to pay for it. The rest was
from loan. She was a Coventry witch, and went to a
muggle school in Marble Bay, Massachusetts. She
was in her senior year.
Being a Coventry Witch, she could read minds. It used to be an out of
control thing, but she can only break into other's thoughts when she
wanted to now.
Alex's personality, is very sarcastic. It didn't seem like it to
anyone who only saw her that day, but it normally, it is.

The other guitarist in the band is a 19 year old
music store owner. She 's very friendly, with a
personality far more bubbly, unlike
Alex. Her name is Lana. Lana graduated from
Hogwarts around a year ago. The music store was,
somewhat, a gift for her 18th birthday. Lana's dad
gave her the empty warehouse. About a month later, it
was filled with electric guitars, drums, and other
instruments. The store also sold some records.

Meena is the drummer, and a Coventry witch
Like the other girls, she is very talented. She is in her
junior year of high school, and attends to the same American school as Alex.

All of the girls could sing, but Ginny was usually the
only one who did.
