When Harry finally arrived at Hogwarts, he was called by Dumbledore to entrust with something…

"something?" he thought…

'Oh well…'

When he reached Dumbledore's office, he noticed someone familiar passed the room and closed the door inside. He walked closer to the door, watching out for any signs of the person's identity.
"Looking for something, Harry?" a calm voice asked.

Harry turned around and indeed there's Dumbledore, standing with his long elegant robes, fixing his half moon spectacles, fitting it properly on his nose. Harry looked at the door for a moment and turned back to Dumbledore. "Well, no Sir… You just called me and when I came in here a while ago, I just saw someone familiar to me passed by." Harry replied.

"Aaah…" Dumbledore nodded as he approached the door and knocked it. "My child, you can come out of the door now." He called as he continued knocking.

A girl came outside, and the first thing she did is to stare at Harry, took a little closer look and finally hugged him.

"Good to see you again Harry! My my, you've grown!" She beamed, and Harry thought that she sounded much like Mrs. Weasley.

"Gale?"

"Yes Harry! It's me…" Gale smiled at Harry's confused face.

"Now Harry, she's a new student here at Hogwarts and I will entrust her to you for some guidance, tours, et cetera. You look out for her too as well in case she got lost or misunderstanding something with the lessons. She's a bright student after all and I'm sure that, you'll benefit from each other." Dumbledore said calmly as he examined Harry.

"Yes Sir." Harry replied.

"And you Gale, I'm sure you'll be fine with Harry." Dumbledore winked at her.

"Yes Professor." Gale smiled.

"Well then, off you go."

"What happened to you back at the Leaky Cauldron?" Harry asked, while trying to catch up with Gale.

Gale stopped and faced him. She raised her arm and put a silent finger on her lips. "It's a secret between me and Dumbledore, Harry… You'll find out soon." She winked. Harry gave her a puzzled look and she just laughed at it. "Look, you'll see what's up between me and Professor Dumbledore. This secret will be revealed fully someday. And it's not a real big problem so don't worry." Gale said, as if she's answering Harry's questioning look.

They walked through the deserted hall, heading to the common room while Harry explaining to Gale everything she has to know about the Gryffindor tower, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin houses. He explained to her different attitudes each house has, quidditch, classes, teachers (which quite surprised him because Gale seemed to know them very well) and some rules which she has been familiar with already since Dumbledore explained them to her.

When they finally reached the common room, Ron and Hermione were sitting at the fireplace, reading the newspaper, keeping themselves updated of whatever's happening outside Hogwarts.

"Ron, Hermione… this is Gale Sendor." Harry said as Hermione and Ron stood up in unison and smiled at Gale.

"Hello." Ron smiled.

"Nice to meet you." Hermione said as she reached out her hand and shook Gale's.

"Gale, these are my best friends, Ron and Hermione. Feel free to approach them if you're having any problems. If it involves something to do with lessons, Hermione's the most diligent and you can ask her almost everything. If it's about pranks and jokes, Ron's the expert." Harry said, grinning.

"Oh shut up Harry!" Ron scowled and Hermione laughed.

Gale giggled as she watched the three of them laughing, wishing that this would last forever even though there's something bad coming up. She wished she could always watch out for them, always, fulfilling her mission here in this world.
