Chapter 2 – Arrivals

The three didn't speak of the letters after that day, until September 30. The morning of the thirtieth (which was a Friday), during Morning Meeting, Frances sat down on the chair in between Kiki and Alexa. She poked both of them and said, "It's the thirtieth of September."

The other two looked at her. "Yes…" Alexa said slowly. "It is…"

"Do you think…?" Keira started tentatively.

"I guess, you'll just have to come over to my house tomorrow and we'll see."

The next day found the three, once again, spread around Frances' bedroom. They talked quietly about the books and the stories and what would happen if they actually were able to meet all the people that they had thought was fiction. They had told their parents about it, but they had all thought it was a joke.

At about two in the afternoon, the doorbell rang. The trio jumped up and ran down stairs. Frances' mother, Dolly, was at the door, a horrified look on her face. When she heard the three teenagers enter the room, she turned and stared at them. "You weren't joking…It's true?" She said very quietly.

"Mama? What are you talking about?" Frances asked, walking up behind her mother. She gasped and beckoned to the others.

Standing the doorway was Remus Lupin. Alexa gaped. Frances looked the werewolf up and down critically, while Lupin blushed slightly. "Pleased to meet you, Professor Lupin." She said, smiling.

The young professor smiled slightly. "Pleased to meet you too, Frances." He nodded to the other two. "Keira, Alexa. May I come in, please?"

They moved aside and let him in. Suddenly, Dolly seemed to remember her hostess duty. She gestured for Remus to sit down. The rest followed suit. "Mrs. Furlan, My name is Remus Lupin. I'm a teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

"This isn't a joke, is it?" Dolly asked, looking stunned.

"The books aren't fiction?" Frances squealed in delight.

"No, this isn't a joke and no, the books are not fiction. They are very true, very true indeed. Harry's biographer felt the public would think the story was highly unlikely, so they were classified as fiction." He sighed and passed a hand over his face. "I am here to explain what is going to happen if you three decide to attend Hogwarts. As you probably know it's in-"

Frances cut him off. "It's in the Scottish Countryside, where no one will find it. It's also bewitched so muggles won't stumbled upon it." She said and then clapped a hand to her mouth. "I'm sorry for interrupting you, Professor. Hang on, did I just say muggle?"

Lupin smiled. "Yes, you did."

"That's the second or third time I've done something like that. Why am I suddenly using wizard-lingo?"

"Ah, well…" Lupin began, looking around at them all. "We, uh, had a bit of trouble finding you three. That's why you are all the wrong age to be starting first year and that is also, why we have set up some special arrangements for you. Having read the books, you already know the slang used and your mind is trying to tell you that you are witches too, by inserting the odd word or phrase in." He grinned, widely. "Now, you will all be in Harry's year next September. You will be sorted when we arrive, but you will be given quarters separate from your housemates for the time being. From now until next September 1, you will be taking the classes from the four years you missed. You will be exempt from taking Divination and instead of History of Magic; you will be assigned books to read.

"You will take regular Transfiguration, Care of Magical Creatures, Herbology, Potion, Charms, Astrology, and Defense Against the Dark Arts classes. Lets test if you actually read the books, shall we? Name the teachers for each of those subjects."

Frances raised her hand slightly as the other two sat still looking somewhat shocked. Remus nodded to her smiling. She said, "Transfiguration is Professor McGonagall, Care of Magical Creatures is Hagrid or Professor Grublyplank, Herbology is Professor Sprout, Potion is Professor Snape, Charms is Professor Flitwick, Astrology is Professor Sinistra, and Defense Against the Dark Arts changes every year. During Harry's schooling it's been Professor Quirrel, Professor Lockhart, You, Professor Moody's imposter Barty Crouch, Jr. and Dolores Umbridge."

Remus smirked. "I notice you didn't address Umbridge as Professor."

"That's because she a right old toad and an evil little menace."

"Mmm…" Remus looked at them each in turn. "Have any of you every play one of those online Sorting games of Blood Testing games?"

They all nodded and told him which house they'd been fake sorted in.

Keira spoke up for the first time. "I was, disgustingly, put in Hufflepuff, which doesn't suit me at all. I'd rather be in Ravenclaw or Gryffindor."

Alexa shrugged and said, "It put me in…….."

"I was put in Slytherin about three times out of four. The other time I was put in Gryffindor and it said I was a Pureblood, what a load of rubbish!" Frances snorted.

"No, it's not." Dolly spoke up for the first time since sitting down. They all turned to look at her and she blushed faintly. "I thought it'd missed you too, since I was born a Squib. We are both, however, pureblood through and through."

Frances' mouth dropped open as she stared at her mother. She let it sink in for a moment then asked, hopefully, "So I can go to Hogwarts, even though it's in Scotland?"

"Oh, yes! I won't dream of denying you your birthright. The right that chose to skip me."

Frances got up and hugged her mother fiercely. "I love you, Mama!"

"Hogwarts will, of course, arrange for transportation. Mrs. Furlan, would you and your husband like to accompany us to Diagon Alley in London to buy the girls school supplies, that is if their parents will allow it."

She nodded and left to call her husband. Remus looked around at the girls. "So." He said. "How are you all taking this?"

"Great!" They all said in unison and laughed.

"Keira and I even have wands already." Frances smiled at the stunned look on the werewolf's face. "Not magic ones, but the ones for Alivan's online wands. Their handcrafted wood but don't have the special core."

This caused Remus to smile widely again. "You will definitely find that helpful. Wands like that can be hollowed and filled to become magical, but Ministry can't put the underage-wizardry charm on them because you need to do it when they're being whittled. The two girls in question cheered and slapped a high five.

"Alright, all set." Dolly had returned. "We can go and get the others. Teddy is meeting us at the Mahogany's; it's closer to where he was working today. I also took the liberty of calling the Fattoria's and they also will meet us at the Mahogany's. Shall we go?"

"Wait what about my clothes and stuff?" Frances said, incredulously.

"Oh don't worry. Come here." Remus beckoned and she stood and walked to him. He stood and touched the tip of his wand to her temple. He muttered, "Penivus Vestum." He tapped he temple twice with the wand. "There now I know exactly what you need. I just flick my wand and it will all appear wherever you want it."

"Well if you're all set, we can go." Dolly smiled around and everyone nodded.
