Crash Landing

The sun was just beginning to set and all of Hogwarts was out on the grounds, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the three exchange students. There were all sorts of rumors flying around, especially among the seventh years, who are the same ages as the new girls.

Many of the guys (cough Draco) were hoping to befriend them and if possible do more than that!

The girls hadn't even arrived at Hogwarts and already they had at least half of the male population thinking about them! As for the girls, though they too were curious, they had more honorable intentions than some of the guys. (cough Draco)

Suddenly, Harry pointed up at the distant horizon. Three small specks could be seen, steadily growing larger as they made their way towards their new school, new peers, and a new life.

"Hey Ali, I dare you to make one of your special landings on the grounds!" Lahki grinned, her green eyes twinkling with amusement.

"Oh no, I'm not falling for that again," Ali shuddered in mock horror. "Last time I made one of my special landings, I fell right on top of the nastiest teacher in our school! And the worst part was he thought I was doing it on purpose, like trying to seduce him or something! You would think I would be more subtle about something like that, but noooooooo, after I dusted myself off he made a pass at me!"

"Come on, it will be a great way to break the ice with our future classmates. You know one of the hardest things about meeting new people is figuring out what makes them laugh. Please!" pleaded Lahki.

"All right, but I'm taking no chances this time. I'm landing on a student this time, most preferably a boy, but sometimes its so hard to tell, what with everyone decked out in their black robes," answered Ali with a sigh.

The specks had now become vague outlines of teenagers, two of which flew gracefully to the ground, without so much as the slightest bump.

The third, however, was careening wildly out of control toward the gathered mass of students! Harry looked up to see Ali drop off her broomstick, only several feet above him. He barely had time to register what was happening as the breath was knocked out of him. The last thing he remembered before hitting the ground with her soft (though nevertheless hard enough to create quite an impact) body on top of his was the brightest pair of blue eyes he'd ever seen, smiling at him from above.

Lahki grinned at Megna, her other sister, as she hopped off her broom in search of Ali. Megna followed her still smiling at the thought of Ali landing on some unlucky guy. Or a lucky one, depending on how you looked at it. Hopefully it wasn't another teacher whom she landed on.

They found her on top of a cute guy with unruly black hair and green eyes. She was still grinning down at him, but the smile faded off of her face when she saw a tall man with a grey beard approaching. Sometimes Ali had really bad luck.

"It's nice to finally meet you Miss . . . Ali I believe," said the tall man. "Please come with you. You and your sisters must be sorted." Ali, Lahki and Megna followed the man inside to the Great Hall. All of the students still outdoors followed them.
