Author's Note: hello, again! Okay this is my second chapter, duh! And if you're wondering: WHEN THE HECK SHE'S GONNA GET TO HOGWARTS! Relax! She'll get there...eventually. Trust me. I luv you all. Smooches.
Also, I had alot of mistakes on the first chappie. Please, forgive me. They're just typos.
Chapter Two
When the day was over, I had completely forgotten about the letter. Being all aggravated and stuff, I had gotten very ticked with my Potions Professor and to get my frustatrations out I played my guitar with such ferocity and passion, that it even shocked my pretty puppy, Dragon.
I played 'Letters From War', a muggle song, and another muggle song: 'Dream On'. Then I paused and looked into space. All of the sudden a envelope spacked me in the face. I looked up and saw Dragon wrestling with my purse. " Thanks, baby." I purred to my puppy buddy. I've had Dragon since I was three and she has not aged a day. Why? I'll tell you later.
Suddenly, a knock came from my door. "Hunter!" Kelli called through the door. " You okay? You're not playing anymore?"
"I'm fine...uh, just fine. Thanks, Kel!" I called back and waited until I heard Kelli's footsteps heading back towads the common room. Thank Merlin for private dorms. I looked at the envelope took a deep breath and pulled open the flap. That weird voice started to talk again. " Miss Tomlynson, again. I was afraid you had forgotten me."
I shook my head and four peices of paper fell out of the envelope. I quickly picked up the first one and read as fast as I could. It said:
Dear Miss Tomlynson.
We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all neccesary books and equipment.
Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.
Yours Sincerely,
Nymphadora Tonks
Deputy Headmistress
I frowned. I really thought old Dumbles would be writing to me. Ah, well. I picked up the next peice of paper and scanned through this one too. It was only a list of supplies that Tonks mentioned:
Uniform:
We are please to inform you that a strict dress code has been disallowed. The new Deputy Headmistress has brought a slew of new slackened rules upon us. This being the first.
Uniforms are now able to be decorated robes of any color and design. And on designated day ( once a week) we will do away with the robes completely and have Muggle clothes allowed.
You will also need:
Three sets of work robes; black is the best (no design on these)
These will be for cleaning, cooking, and/or detention
One plain pointed hat (optional to wear, but required to bring)
One pair of protective gloves (dragon hide or similar)
One winter cloak (any color or design)

I looked at Dragon, happily chewing on the strap of my tote bag. " Oh, crud," I breathed as I pulled the strap out of his mouth and scratched behind his ears. " That could be a problem, couldn't it baby."
I grabbed the last two letters and sped read:
My Dear Hunter,
Oh dear, I'm so sorry about this. Arthur and I am so worried about you. But Dumbledore knows best and is an ingenius wizard. Remember, all your 'family' is here in London and is anxiously waiting for you to come. We're all so exicited about you staying until schol starts. Old Dumbledore says that you will be coming around July 22nd. We're ready and waiting by the door. Owl us back.
Say hi to Dragon for me, dear. Love you.
-Molly
The Weasleys! They are my second family; I've known them since I ws born. I was born in their living room. Molly and Mom were best friends at Hogwarts, then when I was eight we had to move here. I go there sometimes for Spring Break and the first week of Summer. I guess I'll be staying there a while. Sweet!
The last letter was long. Or at least it looked that way. I quickly picked it up and read; it was by far the most important:
Miss Tomlynson,
Hello I am Albus Dumbledoe, your new Headmaster. I know we wil become close. I know this has come as a shock to you; especcially after your incident, but it is for the best and essential for your protection. You will be arriving at the Weasley's on the 22nd. You will taking the airplane to the airport at London where the Weasleys have hired a cab to pick up and drop you off at the Burrow.
Miss Tomlynson, on a more important note you are in serious danger. You have a most wondeful girft, but it is alos very dangerous and would be valuabe to the other side. You are what is called in the history books, a Dragon Star. You might look at this letter a sif it's crazy, in fact I know you are.
Funny, I really was.
A Dragon Star is bonded to one dragon and has the ability to control Dragon and Star fire. I know that you know that Dragon is a real Dragon. Yes, dear Hunter, I know. And I think that the enchantment to make him a dog is quite clever. Bravo! Although that mild problem of transformations could be a problem. I believe that when you get angry, Dragon channels that anger and the intensity transforms him back into a dragon. It is proof of you love for him and his love for you. An amazing bond.
I've also realized that yo have no idea on how to control your power.
"Of course not! I just realized I had this power thing!"
Well, when you here at Hogwarts you will be my apprentice on how to control your unique abilities. It will be a designated time and would be best if you brought Dragon. I look forward to seeing you at Hogwarts.
Yours Truly,
Albus Dumbledore
Exhausted from all of the information recieved in those letters, I collapsed on the bed and promptly fell asleep to dreams of Dragons and mysterious old men.
