Chapter 2 New Beginnings

Tears leaked from the corner of her eyes, staining her cheeks. Ginny turned to look back at her family, she had never dreamed of leaving them behind. At the age of 16, life was only just beginning, and already she was at the start of her life journey.

Running the soft floo powder through her fingers, she took a pinch and she threw it into the roaring flames. With one last look at her loved ones, she stepped into the emerald flames and was whizzing on her way to California.

Ginny fell out of a grand fire, into a room that was equally as grand. "Ginevra Weasley? Welcome to Wesley College of Magic and Fine Arts." A deep voice spoke to her from above. Quickly standing, Ginny dusted herself off and scrutinized the being before her.

A tall man clothed in robes of midnight silk stood before. His close-cropped beard and hair were the color of ripe wheat and his eyes of periwinkle blue sparkled with hidden knowledge. He held out his hand and spoke "My name is Caleb Sapieha, and I am Headmaster here at Wesley. I am sure that you are tired and if you would like to follow Jordis here…" at those words a little creature, not unlike a fairy, appeared at his side, "for a tour of the premises and she will then show you to your dorm room." He finished speaking with a bow. He then winked and did a little twirl with which he disappeared.

All of this happened so fast that Ginny barely had time to gather her belongings before she being whisked of by the little fairy.

As soon as Ginny arrived at her dorm room, she collapsed on the bed closest to her, falling asleep immediately.

Upon waking she heard "What the hell are you doin' on ma bed?" Ginny cracked open one eye, to see a tall youth standing over her. "Um… sleeping?" She managed to squeak. The girl standing at the foot of the bed was tall and tan, with long black hair cascading down her back in loose curls and her blue eyes were narrowed in fury.

"Who the hell are you? Oh… wait are you the new girl?" She started to relax and held out her hand. "I'm Katie Preston, I'm sorry 'bout that, I'm just real protective 'bout ma stuff."

Ginny was still dazed about everything that was happening when she realized that this was her roommate. "Hi, um I'm Ginny and I take it that that is my bed over there?" she pointed in the direction of the bed on the opposite side of the room.

"Sure is… soooooooo where are you from?" Katie inquired, sitting next to Ginny on the bed. Ginny had a feeling this was a good start to her new life at Wesley.
