Reina

"CARRA! Where is my blue shirt?" Reina ran around her room frantically trying to find her favorite baby blue tank top. She was close to tears. Apart from being sensitive and a crybaby, the Hogwarts Express was going to leave in one hour, and she needed her shirt.

Reina's sister Carra arrived at the door just then. Carra Haken had already graduated from Hogwarts but was home from her job to see Reina off. Reina was her only little sister, and on her first year of Hogwarts, Carra didn't want anything to go wrong.

"Rei, have you looked in the drawers yet?" Carra suggested.

"YES! I have!" Reina whined. "Carra, help me find it!"

Carra strode over to the drawers and flung it open. Within seconds, she held in her hands a baby blue tank top. Reina smiled sheepishly and took it from her.

"Thanks big sis. You rock." Reina gave her sister a big bear hug. After their mother, a witch, died in a lab where her partner was trying to create a complicated potion and it exploded, the sisters had become extremely close. Now, their father, who is a muggle, had the responsibility of raising Reina and Carra.

Carra smiled at the pretty raven-haired girl. "No problem. Now finish packing. We're leaving in five minutes."

After Carra left the room, Reina tried to pack as much as she could into her suitcase. She needed her accessories. She picked up a pearl bracelet from her vanity and took a big, long look at it. It was her mother's birthday present to her a week before she died. Reina smiled sadly at it and dropped it gently into her suitcase.

Lugging her bags downstairs, she took one good look around her house. It would be a while before she saw it again. Trying hard not to cry, Reina took a deep breath and rolled her bags out to the car. Her dad and Carra smiled at her, and they helped her load them into the trunk. They all got in the car, chatting merrily.

"What House do you think I'll be in?" Reina asked excitedly.

Carra looked thoughtful for a second. "Well, it's a toss-up between Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, I think. I mean I seriously doubt they'll put you in Slytherin, and being Asian and all everyone probably expects you to be in Ravenclaw. It's such a stereotype. But hey, you are smart."

Reina nodded. She knew it was going to be between those two. Like she ever had a chance of being in Gryffindor! She wasn't a baby but she could act like it most days.

Before long, they had arrived at the station. Reina felt tears sliding down her face as she hugged goodbye to her sister and father. They helped Reina get her bags out of the trunks and into the Hogwarts Express. Looking around, she found a window seat where she could look outside.

With one last long wave, Reina watchedher sister and her fatherdrive away, tears still sliding down her cheeks.
