Chapter 9Ministry Clean Ups, a Missed Train and Hogwarts
Then Remus yelled "Harry! No! Don't touch her!" But he was too late Harry had put a hand on her forehead. Suddenly there was a bright flash and they were floating 3 feet above the ground. Then her eyes snapped open and……..OXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Harry gasped! Her eyes weren't their normal colour they were emerald green just like his! Her bruises began to heal before their eyes. Her wounds closed up until not even a scar was left.
But then he started to feel it. As if his energy was being…not forcefully pulled, but called to. He looked down and saw the burns on Allanah's body start to heal. When Allanah realised what was happening she gasped, her now emerald eyes widened and she snapped the connection shut!
The glow that surrounded them disappeared and they both fell back to earth with a 'thump'.
"What the hell just happened?" Panted Harry.
"Oh My God! I am so sorry are you o.k?" asked Allanah hurriedly.
"Yeh! Fine just a little tired." He replied.
They both stood up turned around to a very shocked crowd. Most people were just looking plain confused except Remus who looked pensively at Harry.
"What the hell was that?" asked Sirius.
"I guess you all want to know what just happened? You see when I fell unconscious my body went into a state of shock from all of the damage. Usually my magic would have healed my body when the damage was done, but since I was trapped inside the dome it couldn't. When the dome was released there was simply too much damage done for my magic to heal normally and since most of my nerves where fried from the long-term exposure to the domes effects it had to deal with that too."
Here she took a break to breath and handed Harry his coat back. He smiled in thanks and she continued.
"Anyways, so I went into a restoration state to give my magic time to heal my wounds without them getting worse. I've never seen it but I hear I start to glow or something like that. Right so when Harry touched me his magic sensed my need and some of it came to me to help me heal. The bright flash was when our magic's joined and we started floating. As soon as I realised what I was doing I immediately closed the bond."
"Hmmm…but young Harry should be alright? Yes?" asked Dumbledore.
"Oh yeh don't worry he'll be fine. Just a little tired is all." She said then looked around and asked, "So what are you going to do to the deatheaters that attacked us?"
"Ah. Yes I dare say the Ministry shall be happy. This is the largest deatheater capture they've had in a long time!" said Dumbledore with a twinkle in his eye.
"O.k. But can we go inside and let the Ministry do the clean up? I'm still pretty beat and I'm willing to bet Harry is too." Said Allanah and they went in to the house. While the others took care of the deatheaters and called the Ministry.
The Ministry came and were there for half the night cleaning the road, fixing houses, obliveating muggles and so forth.
While inside the still hidden Head quarters of the order of the phoenix two teenagers slept like they had just run across the country. Remus went into the library to look up where he had heard the O'Farrell family mentioned. Sirius was moping because Harry and even though they fought a lot Allanah were going back to Hogwarts and they wouldn't see either of them till Christmas.
The next morning at 10 O'clock everyone was running around the house getting ready to go to the station. Remus was trying to find his notes from the last year he was teaching after being asked to teach again this year.
Allanah was trying to get Hades into his cage. He was flying all around the house avoiding her. Owls don't have the same respect for banshees as they do for humans so she was having a hard time.
She was wearing a V-neck, fitted, blood red shirt that had the collar up with a black skirt that reached mid thigh and had red dragons embroidered on it and dark red swade boots. She had a black chocker with a silver Celtic cross on it around her neck along with matching earrings. Cleo was wrapped around her arm. And to be honest she looked drop dead gorgeous and the snake gave her that very sexy look.
When she passed Harry and Sirius in the hall, Harry walked into a wall because he was staring at her and not looking where he was going. This earned him a lot of teasing from Sirius that made him turn so red he had to lock himself in his room for 10 minutes.
Only to do it again and nearly kill himself when they passed on the stairs. So Harry spent his time avoiding Sirius, staring at Allanah and walking into walls. Great fun all in all.
At 10:30 everyone was finally ready as Allanah had given up on getting Hadies into his cage and just let him fly around. Remus found his notes under his wardrobe. Sirius stopped moping instead spent all his time teasing Harry who in turn spent his time avoiding Sirius.
So they where all at the front door with their bags. This time since he had Allanah, Sirius and Remus with him Dumbledore decided to let Harry go with out a guard.
After ten seconds of waiting Allanah finally said "Oh god Remus don't take this the wrong way, but would you mind if I totally redid your wardrobe?"
Remus looked a little shocked, but with a lot of persuasion on Harry and Sirius's part he finally agreed saying. "Well…o.k. But nothing crazy! And nothing bright yellow or with crazy flowers or anything like that!"
Allanah smiled and said "Remus seriously now. When have you ever seen me wear anything bright yellow or with crazy flowers?"
"Well never. But still." he said
Allanah walked over to his suitcase and made a circular motion with her hands. The suitcase glowed and then she walked back over satisfied. To a worried Remus. Not that he had any reason to be Allanah had great taste. She said it was from growing up with a sister who wouldn't buy anything that didn't have a label on it.
"Hey when does the train leave?" She asked Harry.
"Mmm…11 O'clock.." he said
"Oh. And how long does it take to get to the station?" she asked him.
"About 20 minutes. Why?" he asked suspiciously.
"Oh. It's nothing really. Just that we better move our buts fast and now because it's 25 to!" She said looking at her watch.
"What?" All three of them said at the same time.
"Well what are you waiting for Allanah? Come on!" said Sirius as he opened the front door and ran out to the Ministry car followed by the other two leaving Allanah in the doorway. She rolled her eyes and said 'boys' and headed out to the car herself.
When they got to the station the said a quick goodbye to Sirius then rushed off to the platform. When they got there Remus went through first then Harry but Allanah never came through after him.
After a minute he poked his head out of the portal only to come face to face with an angry Allanah.
"Potter that prank was soooooooo not funny!" she said putting her hands on her hips.
"Prank? What prank?" Harry said confused.
"What prank? The one you just pulled. Making me walk into the wall! It's a good thing I was going slowly or else my stuff would have gone everywhere!" she said.
"The wall what? Here wait a minute I'm coming back through." He said then he appeared back on her side of the portal. He looked at the wall then touched it and his hand went straight through. So it hadn't closed like in his second year. But when Allanah tried it was nothing but solid wall.
"O.k." Said Harry "I think I know why you can't get through!"
"Really? Why?" asked a confused Allanah.
"This portal was made so that wizard kids and their parents could get through. No muggles, no cats, no bag that rolled away. I think because your not human that the portal won't except you." He explained to her and realisation flicked across her face.
"Oh. Right. Well that blows." She said
"Yeh. It does. How are we going to get to school?" he asked.
A smile spread across her face and she started to push her stuff away from the platform.
"Hey? Where are you going? Allanah?" eventually he just gave up and followed her. They ended up in the car park.
"Emm…Allanah? Why are we in the car park?" asked a confused Harry.
"Well if we can't get on the train then we'll just have to get there another way!" She said looking around to see if anyone was watching. They weren't.
"And just how are we gong to do that?"
"Drive!" she said simply.
"What? Drive? We can't drive 1. We don't have a car and 2. We don't have a licence." Said Harry
"Oh Harry you worry about such silly things!" She said looking at him.
"O.k. then! You show me how we're going to get there then?" he said folding his arms.
"Gladly" she said and then made a swishing motion with her hands making a Gorgeous red Ferrari appear in front of them and then she threw Harry a fake drivers licence as she got into the drivers seat.
"You know how to drive? Right?" Asked an impressed Harry.
"Yeh. Of course I do." And with that she pushed her foot down on the accelerator and they whizzed off tyres squeaking at the gates.
By the time they arrived at Hogsmeade the start of term feast had already started, and since Harry didn't know the way to the castle from where they were, they had to ask for directions.
Allanah pulled up by a witch who was walking and gave her a fright. She put down the window and asked how to get to the castle.
At first the lady thought they were muggles but when she saw Harry in the passenger seat, she gasped and told them, getting herself an autograph out of it.
At the school the feast had started and everyone was wondering where Harry was?
Remus was the first to notice who told Dumbledore who asked McGonagall who didn't know.
After the last first year was sorted Allanah was supposed to come up, but she wasn't there. Just as Dumbledore stood up to say his annual beginning of year speech the squeaking of tyres was heard outside. Since not many wizards know haw to drive they didn't take any notice.
Dumbledore rose and spread his arms and said, "Welcome to all our new students and welcome back to those of you returning. We were supposed to have a new transfer student this year from Ireland but I am afraid they have not shown up. I do hope mister Potter didn't get them into to much trouble on the way here."
Whispers erupted all over the hall. People wondering who the new student was. Was it a girl or a guy? What year would they be in? What house? Over in the Slytherin table Draco Malfoy was saying Potter had probably gotten them killed trying to save some poor person from tripping on their shoelaces or something.
Suddenly the hall doors burst open and everyone cranked their necks to see who it was. There standing in the doorway was Harry Potter and a girl no one had seen before who was looking kind of sheepish and said "Oops. Sorry about the door. Accident."
Meanwhile out in the front driveHarry and Allanah got out of the car and Harry said "Sweet Merlin Allanah! Where on Earth did you learn to drive like that?"
Allanah laughed and said," Did you see the look on her face when I pulled the Ferrari up to that old witch to ask for directions? Priceless!"
"Oh yeh. And then she thought we were muggles. I swear she jumped a foot in the air when she say my scar." Replied Harry grinning.
"Which way?" She asked as soon as they got in.
"This way. Come on, we're late" replied Harry and he ran down the hall to the great hall.
The sound of the chatter in the hall drew nearer and Allanah waved her hand to open the heavy doors. But just as she waved her hand she tripped on someone's shoe and over powered it only to have the doors bang open to show Harry and Allanah standing there in the doorway in front of a completely silent hall.
Then Allanah looked sheepish and said "Oops. Sorry about the door. Accident. Some idiot left their shoe in the middle of the hall and I tripped on it!" she said blushing a faint pink colour.
Only to have someone from the Gryffindor table yell "My shoe! You found it! I was looking all over for it!" and then realise the said it way to loud and blush deep red and sink into his seat.
Laughs were heard all around the hall and Allanah shot him an apologetic look.
"That's Neville. I'll give it back to him." Said Harry holding out his hand for the shoe wanting to get away from all of the attention. She gave him the shoe and he walked over to his table to lots of questions from his year mates wanting to know about the new student.
Dumbledore smiled at her and said "Ah yes. Here she is. Our new transfer student. We were just wondering where you had gotten off too." He said chuckling "Please. Please come up here and we shall get you sorted."
She walked up the hall causing catcalls and lots of girlfriends hitting their boyfriends on the back of he head for staring.
When she got to the teachers table McGonagall brought out the hat and stool and told her to "Sit and put the hat on your head".
She looked at McGonagall funny but sat down and put the hat on her head and jumped when she heard a voice say. "Interesting"
"Wow! Who the hell said that?" she asked confused.
."Why I'm the sorting hat. It's my job to search a persons traits and personality and then place them in the house they would do best in." explained the hat.
"Oh! O.k. so which one am I in then?" she asked nervously.
"Now now my dear. No need to rush. It's between Slytherin and Gryffindor. Yes. Definitely Slytherin material. I dare say you don't get along with the head of house too well though?" Said the hat more to himself than her.
"Severus? No! No way! I am not going into a house run by sir cranks-a-lot! No chance in hell!" She asked.
"Are you sure? You would do very well in Slytherin?" the hat asked.
"Positive!" she said back.
"Hmm…well in that case better be GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted the last bit. The hall erupted in cheers and she walked over to the table that was clapping the loudest and sat herself beside Harry.
Dumbledore got up again and said "Yes! Well congratulations Miss Rood. Now I know you must be all starving so I will let you eat. Enjoy!" he clapped his hands and all the food appeared in front of them.
"Wow cool!" said Allanah as she started to fill her plate.
"Oiy Harry! How come you weren't on the train mate? How'd you get here? You didn't fly did you?" asked Ron with a mouth full of food.
"Ha! No chance mate! After second year? No. We drove." Said Harry as he filled his plate.
"Yo! Potter! Who's you friend?" Shouted Terry Boot from the Ravenclaw table.
"I'm Allanah!" She shouted back over
"Well in that case." He yelled "I'm Terry! Terry Boot. If you need a tour of the grounds or anything I'd be happy to show you around! "
"Thanks! I'll think about it!" she yelled and he went back to talking to his friends.
"Oh. So you're the mystery girl I've been hearing so much about." Said Hermione from where she sat beside Ron.
"Yeh, and you must be Hermione? Right? Harry's told me loads about you." Replied Allanah.
"Oh he did, did he?" said Hermione looking at Harry suspiciously.
After everyone had finished eating the food disappeared and Dumbledore stood up and a hush came over the hall. "Well it's nice to have you all back for another year at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. Now that you're all filled I have a few start of term announcements to make. Firstly I would like to welcome back Remus Lupin who has kindly agreed to teach again this year for us!"
The hall broke out into applause and Remus stood up and bowed then sat back down blushing slightly.
"Next I would like to remind you all that the forbidden forest is just that…forbidden! Mr. Filch has also asked me to remind you that magic is not allowed in the corridors between or after class and that he has added some new things to the list of forbidden items bringing it up to 750 I believe. Lastly I would like to inform you all that we will be reinstating the duelling club for those who wish to join. So now I'll leave you with some parting words. Pixies! Liquorish! Sunshine! Sweets! Thank you."
The hall erupted in cheers and Allanah looked to Harry and said "God! I think he's even crazier than I am! And I didn't even know that was possible!"
This caused Harry to laugh and Ron and Hermione stood up and Hermione to say. "First years, come on, follow me please?" Her and Ron led the first years to the Gryffindor dormitories and Allanah just followed Harry.
Allanah's dorm was a large round room with 6 four-poster beds and matching wardrobes. Their stuff had been brought up and was at the end of their beds. The last thing she thought before she went to sleep was 'God! I wonder if Dumbledore really is crazier then I am? Ha. No chance.'
