Guess what, I'm writing a new chapter. Can you believe it? I am so excited to start this chapter. All I can really hope for is that it'll develop to be a really good story. You know the kinds, the ones that have like over 200 reviews to a single chapter. Who gets those? I'd really like to meet someone like that. They need to give me some tips so that I can be just like them. I shall follow their every move! Wow, I think I'm becoming a stalker...eh, it can't be that bad.

Disclaimer: Yeah, I do so not own HP. If I did, I would be flying all over the world on my private jet with Tom Felton at my side. Wouldn't that be wonderful?

With her head phones attached to her ears, Gia looked out the window of the Hogwarts express. The day that they were all traveling turned out to be rather dreary and rainy. In Gia's personal opinion, this was perfect weather for traveling. Her CD player was blasting Linkin Park into her ears as her train compartment door opened. She looked up to see a young woman with fizzy mouse brown hair standing in the doorway. She smiled down at Gia.
"Hello, do you mind if my friends and I sit in here? All the other compartments are full." Gia nodded and pulled her small bag that was sitting in the seat next to her onto her lap. The young woman motioned behind her and two bumbling boys came rushing into the compartment and quickly taking a seat. A boy with red hair plopped down beside Gia with a wide smile on his face.
"Hello there," he held out his hand. Gia hesitantly took it and the boy gave it a good shake. "My name is Ron Weasley." Gia smiled at Ron.
"Pleased to meet you." She mumbled out. Ron motioned to the young woman and the other boy with black hair that was sitting across from them both.
"These are my friends: Hermione Granger and Harry Potter." Gia nodded to them both.
"Pleased to meet you as well."
Memories concern
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
Gia sat back in her seat. Ron looked at her with curious eyes.
"So, you must be new here to Hogwarts." Gia looked at him.
"Yeah, I just enrolled last week." Hermione smiled over at her with her bright white teeth.
"You must be so excited to get to the castle." Gia shook her head and adjusted her headphones.
"To tell you the truth, that castle is the last place that I want to be."
You all assume
I'm safer in my room
Unless I try to start again
Hermione looked at her with a shocked look on her face. Ron patted her on the back and nearly knocked her out of her seat.
"You're all right in my book if you think that school is a bloody waste of time!" he exclaimed with happiness echoing from his laugh. Gia shook her head.
"No, I don't think school is a 'bloody waste of time'. I would just rather be at home." Harry quirked an eyebrow in interest.
"And where is home?" he asked. Gia looked at him with her simple brown eyes.
"It's back across the sea, in New York city." Ron raised his eyebrows in astonishment.
"Wow, you really are far away from your home." Gia nodded in agreement and looked out the window. She heard Hermione let out a little sigh.
"Well, you'll learn to love Hogwarts over time. I'm certain of it." Ron scoffed.
"No she won't."
"And who made up that rule?" she asked.
"Well...I did. And whatever I say goes."
"Who made you the boss of the entire bloody world?" Harry let out a heavy sigh.
"Come on you two, can't you go on without fighting for just a few hours?"
I don't want to be the one
Who battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
Gia let out an aggravated sigh and turned to face the arguing Ron and Hermione.
"Okay, for the sake of my throbbing head, please stop fighting!" They both looked at her with wide eyes and slowly sunk back into their seats still shooting daggers at each other with their glares. Harry chuckled at the looks on their faces and then glanced over at Gia.
"So, why are you coming to Hogwarts instead of a school in America?" he asked.
"Well, it was in my parents will and they said that I had to go." Harry nodded his head.
"So they're at home forcing you to come to school all the way in London." Gia shook her head.
"No, they're dead."
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
Harry sat up in his seat with concern in his eyes.
"I'm sorry." Gia shrugged her shoulders. Harry pursed his lips together.
"If it makes you feel any better, I lost my parents when I was a baby. I never knew them." Gia raised her eyebrows and let a slight smile grace her lips.
"That doesn't make me feel any better. The worse part is not I'm even more depressed." Harry let a light chuckle escape his lips.
"I'm sorry about that." Gia waved off his comment.
"Don't worry about it. They died at least a week ago so I'm sort of over it." Harry nodded his head. There was a sudden shaking from the shelf above Gia's head and she looked up. She smiled as she saw Hoshi's cage rattle around as he tried to get out. She literally had to stuff him in there. She knew that she would have to get him out of there with a crow bar. Harry looked up there as well.
"Is that your cat?" he asked. Gia nodded and then looked at Harry's glowing green orbs.
"He doesn't like being in that cage, does he?" Gia shook her head and let a little fit of laughter pass through her lips.
"No, he..." at that moment, Harry and Gia's conversation was interrupted by the compartment door opening with a loud whisk sound and revealed Crabbe, Goyle, and Draco.
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
Harry's eyes hardened with a hate that Gia had never expected from him.
"What do you want, Malfoy?" he asked with poison dripping from every word that he said. Draco raised a perfectly groomed eyebrow at Harry's words.
"What's the matter with you, Potter? Can't I just come and visit?" Harry scoffed.
"Since when did you start being nice to people?" Draco pursed his lips together and let his glance slip over to Gia's direction. He let a smirk grace his thin lips.
"Who's your friend, Potter? I know that she couldn't be your girlfriend. How could you of all people get someone so attractive?" Harry narrowed his eyes until they were nothing but slits. Draco's smirk widened at Harry's reaction.
"What, did I hurt you Harry? Aw, that's too bad." Cultured my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
Gia sat up strait in her seat and raised a thin and delicate eyebrow. This boy, Draco as Harry had called him, seemed unbelievably familiar. It was like Gia had seen him in a dream that she may have had years before. This was a rather strange turn of events.
'Where have I seem him before?' she asked herself. Draco ran a hand through his silky blonde hair. Crabbe and Goyle stood behind him with their arms crossed roughly across their chest. Ron sat up fiercely in his seat.
"What do you want, Malfoy? Come to torture us again?" Draco let out a little chuckle.
"Hardly, I have better things to do than to annoy stupid Gryfindors." Crabbe and Goyle chuckled menacingly. Hermione quickly stood in front of Draco with a scowl on her face.
"If you have nothing better to do, then why don't you go do it somewhere else?" she replied haughtily. Draco quirked and eyebrow and pursed his lips together.
"Don't speak to me in that tone of voice, you filthy little mudblood." Hermione took a few steps back and suddenly plopped back into her cushioned seat. Draco smirked as Hermione's senses suddenly shut down to his words.
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I have no options left again
Gia looked at Draco with stone cold eyes. He returned her gaze with humor dancing in his eyes.
"What are you looking at?" he asked her with amusement in his voice. Gia took her headphones off her ears and let them hang around her neck. She stood up cautiously as the train slowly took a turn. Gia regained a sense of balance in her black leather boots.
"I believe that I'm looking at a spoiled brat who has no power in the world so to get some power, he becomes a bully and pushes around innocent kids just to get his kicks." Gia plopped back down in her seat.
"Does that sound right to you?" she asked putting her headphones back on her head. Draco pursed his lips together with frustration.
"Who are you to speak to me that way? I'll have you know that my father is a VERY powerful wizard that wouldn't hesitate to kill you if I asked." Gia scoffed at his statement.
"Oh, that gives me one big reason to be scared." She said to him with laughter woven into her voice. Draco glared at her.
I don't want to be the one
Who battles always choose
Cuz inside I realize
That I'm the one confused
Gia simply shook her head.
"Listen Dranco or whatever your name is," Draco's face turned a deep red and he bared his teeth.
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
"Just get out of our compartment before I knock your head off its block. Do I make myself clear?"
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit tonight
Draco strode till he stood shadowing Gia. He looked down at her with hard and angry eyes. Gia returned his stare with her plain brown eyes that reveled not one emotion to his wandering and searching eyes.
I'll paint it on the walls
Cuz I'm the one that falls
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends
"Why don't you save your little speeches for the suckers who care?" Gia pouted her lips.
"Aw, I saved that little speech just for you."
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
To show you what I mean
Draco balled his hands till they were fists and turned his back to Gia. He made his way back over to the doorframe and glanced over his shoulder.
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So I'm breaking the habit
"Just to let you know, girl. You're not finished with me and I'm not finished with you. Got that?" Gia leaned back in her seat and turned up her CD player till everyone around her could hear the music.
"I look forward to it..."
I'm breaking the habit
Breaking the habit tonight
