Angle From A Nightmare.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything thing but the summary and all the stuff in front of me, anything you don't recognise.
Guy's and Gals. Enjoy the story and remember to review cause then I write faster (sometimes it might take long as I get writers block often Grr) and I don't mine criticisms. If you have any ideas to make the story better I don't mind either. Now on with the story.
Chapter 1: Different Country, Different School, And Different Magic.
"I have a few start of term notices I would like to announce," Albus Dumbledore said in his usual cheery voice, "Please note that the forest on the school grounds is strictly off limits. Second I would like all 7th year students to stay behind after the feast to discuss some important maters. And let the feast begin."
"About time. Man, I was getting really hungry," Ron, complained to Harry and Hermione.
"Can you for once stop thinking about your stomach. It's not like the end of the world. The foods still going to be there by the time he finishes his speech," Hermione shot back with a glare.
"Can you two just get alone for just one year? And 'Mione what's this big secret your holding back," Harry said shovelling food into his mouth.
"I have no idea, I just got the usual school letter but with another letter in it. And she started telling he story.
FLASHBACK
"Hermione, Wake up you have letter here for you. I think it's the school letter," her mum called frustrated from downstairs. At this Hermione practically jumped out of bed and ran down the stairs two at a time.
"Where, where, where, where?" she screamed. "Here and you don't have to yell I'm right here." "Sorry. I'm just so excited." Running back up stairs to open it in peace, slamming the bedroom door in the process. Opening the letter she found the normal one but with it was another. Hermione opened up the second letter and it said:
Dear Miss Granger, This year at Hogwarts the new Head Boy and Girl will be selected at the end of the Welcome Back Feast by using the sorting hat. Also you are required to bring some muggle clothing with you this year. Please bring enough to last you at leased a couple of months. Please bring only two pairs of your normal Hogwarts uniform. The reason for this will be explained after the Head Boy and Girl selection takes place. Enjoy the rest of your holidays.
Yours Sincerely Professor M. McGonagall.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Oh yeah now I remember. I got the same letter," Harry said. "I'm just really nervous about the heads choosing ceremony," Hermione said nervously.
After the feast- the Heads choosing ceremony
"Now, line up along here please and one by one you will come up and try the sorting hat on. He will then call out if you are the next head boy or girl and a country. You will have to remember this country. If you are not selected to be head boy or girl then all you have to remember is your country," McGonagall explained.
One by one the 7th years went up and put on the hat. Minutes later McGonagall called out "Draco Malfoy". Draco wet up and sat on the stool thinking about how dirty his hair was going to get. The next thing was unexpected. The hat called out, after much consideration, "Head Boy and your country shall be... Australia." (AN: - Where I live so sorry if you don't under stand some of the words-:) There was a loud gasp from everyone. Draco Malfoy was Head Boy. "Hermione Granger," was called out next. Hermione went up and sat down. "Hmmm.... I think the job of Head Girl is for you and why not go to..." there was a moments pause as Hermione gripped the edge of the stool and prayed that she would be sent far, far away from Malfoy, "AUSTRALIA." At these words Hermione nearly fainted. She was Head Girl but why wasn't she happy about that. Of cause it was because of Draco. But why Australia? Why not America? But no, the stupid hat had to send me to Australia and not somewhere far, far away from Draco. Hermione thought to her self as she walked over to where a spare seat was. "Harry Potter." After a long pause the hat spoke. "New Zealand." Harry, shaking, got up from the chair and crossed over to where Hermione was. "Ronald Weasley." "New Zealand." These words filled the room. Ron walked over to Harry filled with joy.
After the Heads Ceremony
After every one was sorted Dumbledore stood and waited for silence. "Well done to everyone and well done to Mr Malfoy and Miss Granger for making the Heads positions. Now one country at a time will leave with their guide," at these words a group of people came in through the side dors, "Each country has a guide. Let me explain, every year the 7th years do something special for about all of their school grades. This year, you will be doing an exchange program with a country. In return of your departure we get some students from those countries to come here. Now, our 5 students who are going to Japan. Please go with Sou Kin here and take this port key." One by one the counties left until only 2 were left.
"The 6 New Zealanders please go with Taylor and our other 6 Australians please go with Cassie. You will not need a port key. As I believe it. Cassie and Taylor are Orbers. They are a group of witches or wizards who have the ability to orb, not apparate, to different places in the world. They can also heal, intercept attacks and direct it a different way. A dark arrow can only kill them with dark poison on its tip. Although, this poison is hard to find and is only found in the north and south poles. But every witch or wizard who has attempted to get it from it's frozen grave have mysteriously disappeared," the headmaster finished looking sad.
"K kids. Hold onta my hand n don't let go," Cassie said in her Aussie accent. She had gold-brown-reddish coloured hair. You could tell it was dyed cause you could see at leased an inch of new growth, dark brown. Her hair was down, just longer than shoulder length. Her dark golden hazel eyes stood out by her hair. Freckles covered her flushed cheeks and nose making her look really pretty especially with the tan she had who wouldn't. Everyone was looking at her strangely and not daring to take her hand, "Sorry if I scared ya there. I like to practise my Australian accent. We don't really speak like that only the farmers and truckies who live way out west. Now just take my hand and then hold onto the person next of you hand. Make sure that every one is connected. And as I said before don't let go. We don't want you ending up in a different realm."
All 6 of them squeezed there hands and eyes closed and waited for some sort of tug or pull. But none came. All they could here was giggling. One by one they opened their eyes to see them selves drifting above the ocean and into clouds but could not feel a thing except the tingling inside their stomachs. Cassie was the one giggling.
"Sorry guys. It's just so funny. You're all proberly use to aparating and feeling a tug of some sort. Right? Well with orbing all you feel is a soft tingle. You get use to it after a while. Although it looks like we're going slowly we are actually going very fast."
"Umm, Cassie. I'm sort of scared of heights. It makes me feel very dizzy sometimes," Hermione, said frightened. Wondering whose hands she was holding. Looking to her side she found a cute Ravenclaw boy and next to him a Hufflepuff girl and boy and another Ravenclaw girl, all looking frightened themselves. Looking to her other side she found that she was holding Malfoy's hand, how disgusting. But remembering what Cassie said before about keeping contact with everyone she held back and tried to ignore it. He was holding Cassie's hand.
"It's ok. We're already there. Guys and gals welcome to Australia, the land down under," Cassie, said filled with joy.
They landed in the middle of a forest on the side of a mountain. Reluctantly, Hermione let go of Malfoy's hand but he didn't let go of hers.
"Ferret boy, let go of my hand," Hermione hissed into his ear before anyone could see.
"What? Don't you like it?" he hissed back with his famous smirk on his face, gripping harder.
"Let go of my hand you slimy git," she yelled pulling her hand out of his finally, which surprised him.
"I take it you two don't like each other?" Cassie asked.
"Not in a million years would I ever like ferret boy here," Hermione said nodding her head at Draco.
"I see. Well I guess that you will have to start to like each other, as you two have to share a room. Special request by professor Dumbledore if the two heads come to the same country so don't blame me I'm just the messenger."
"What?! I have to spend this entire exchange thing with mudblood Granger. Now way am I sharing a room with her. I don't even like being in the same room as her."
"Actually, you two have to share a common room and the same bed room. Separate beds of course. Again a request from Dumbledore. Any way, to bad. You're stuck with her. I'm stuck with my worst enemy. I have to share the same common room with him, he's head prefect, and you don't see me complaining. I just avoid him. Now back to business. You all will be sorted into different houses. There are 4 altogether and they are: Criptillia- gold and black. Snowstalkers- white and blue. Wolverines- blood red and dark blue. Frill Necks or Frillies, as we call them are forest green and gold. I'm in Criptillia. Each house is an animal. Criptillia and Snowstalker are the 5million year evolutionary from of the Frillies and the Wolverine. Criptillia is a Frill Neck and the Snowstalker is a Wolverine. Don't ask why. Our head mistress is Professor Bluetree, my great grandmother on my mother's side. Because you guy's have come in the 3rd term break you have a choice of going to a home stay family or at school," Cassie said but was cut in by Hermione and Draco, both saying, "School."
"For the summer holidays you will be allocated a home stay family. Then you will spend the first and second terms at school. Then you will go back to England in the 2nd term break. Now we're just waiting on Daniel, Head Boy, who is supposed to be here with a list of 2 home stay families. One for the girls and one for the boys. Where is that guy, gees, I hope he remembered." Cassie finally finished.
"I'm right here. Don't go all agro on me again," said a really cute boy came out of the shadows. His skin was tanned a bit darker than Cassie's but not too dark. Very Dark Brown to Black hair was all neatly messy and the front was flicked up to reveal his lightly freckled face. His Dark Brown- puppy dog eyes where noticeable, "last time she cursed me and I was stuck as a, dare I say it, a puppy."
"A cute little puppy sigh hey, Daniel so you want a doggy treat or are you just going to stand there and not give me the list," Cassie said half giggling half trying to keep a straight face. He came out of his trance and handed her a piece of rolled up parchment. She unrolled it revealing a crest on the back. The letters D.U.S.M.A printed under neath it and below them the words "The Down Under School Of The Magic Arts" "Ok, who is stying with a home stay and what is you name?" Cassie asked. Everyone except Hermione and Draco put their hand up. The two Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs said their names, Jake, Rachel, Tobias and Nikki. "Rachel and Nikki, you will be staying with the Verrall's and Jake and Tobias, you will be staying with me," Daniel said in a calm voice, "now just do what you did with Cassie and you'll be all right. You see that sort of valley down there that's were I live and the Verrall's to," he said pointing behind them. Everyone turned to see a beautiful valley with houses and paddocks. A highway was just below them, which headed into a small town, "see that town over there, that's Peakcrossing and over there is Purga and Yamanto," pointing the other way, "This is Mount Flinders we're standing on, an extinct volcano, and on the other side there is a army practise firing range and further north is the Gold Coast where Down Under is. Everyone calls our school that for short. Down Under is an old castle on an island. Muggles can't see it so they won't come and start exploring. To get there we go by train and then by a ship. Because the ship can't get close enough to the shore at school we have to take boats over and ride the waves in. now enough of me blabbing on and on we should get going," Daniel finally finished by holding out his hands. The Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs took his hands and they vanished. They disappeared by slowly dissolving into a blue and white light.
"Oh this is just fucking great. I get to spend my holidays with ferret boy," Hermione screamed.
"Hey, it's not my fault moony cursed me, Mudblood."
"Don't ever call me that or I'll make you spew up slimy green slugs that you are or maybe I should just turn you into to one instead."
"Grr, you'll pay for that Granger," Malfoy said and whispered a curse under her breath and Hermione was stunned.
"You slimy little git." Hermione hissed a curse under her breath so that Malfoy couldn't hear. A blinding white light came and a scream was heard after it.
"Shit. Hermione, What did you Do?" Cassie yelled through the light that was still there and not showing any sing of going anywhere.
"I said was "Eat Slugs" and that was it. It shouldn't have made this much light. Draco, Draco, where are you?" Hermione called.
The light cleared after a long time and all Hermione could think about was Draco.
Where is Draco? Did I just say his name? Oh this is just great. Hermione thought.
Draco was lying unconscious by a tree. He had a cut on his left cheek that was bleeding and his arm looked like it was dislocated.
