Chapter 5: Welcome Feast – Number 1
"Students I would like you to welcome 2 of the 6 Hogwarts exchange students from England. I would like you all to make them welcome. Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger are the Head Girl and Boy at Hogwarts. At the beginning of next term the other 4 will arrive and we will have the major ceremony then. For now I would like Draco and Hermione to sit at the Criptillia table until the major ceremony," Prof. Bluetree said to the remaining 50 students.
Hermione and Draco walked over to the Criptillia table and sat down next to Cassie. Each table had a crest of their animal it represented, colours and each house had the same motto: Omnia Suparat Diligentia. The Dinning Hall looked a lot like the Great Hall at Hogwarts.
"Hey Cassie. What does 'Omnia Suparat Diligentia' mean?" Hermione asked.
"Well I'm not exactly sure but I think it means something like 'Diligence overcomes all' or something."
"Okay."
While Hermione asked that Draco was busy staring at a girl that sat across from him.
"Draco? Draco? Earth to Draco Malfoy, do you read me?" Hermione asked, waving her hand in front of his face. He did nothing but sit there and stare.
"I wouldn't stare to long me if I were you," the girl said not looking up from food.
"How did you know I was staring at you?" Draco said back at her.
"Oh boy, here we go again," Cassie said sarcastically, "Alana, can you please make your long story short please? We don't want to be here till the ends of our days now do we?"
"Fine, fine. I am a Cat Demon. I can hear, see, do and much more that cats can do. I'm ¾ Cat Demon and ¼ Witch. My father has only a small amount of Demon blood in him but not much. My mother is a full-blooded Cat Demon but because they married and had me I'm only part Demon and part witch. If my father had married a witch then I would be one to," Alana said.
"A witch?" Hermione asked.
"Yeah"
"But wouldn't your dads demon blood make you a demon?"
"No, like I said my dad only had a little so it wouldn't make much of a difference. Any way, I look a lot different than I do now. In my true for I can do every thing my abilities and senses allow me to do but because I don't want to scare anyone and make the muggles suspicious I use this form. In this form I can only have my senses and not my abilities. That's how I knew you were looking at me."
"Can you show us what you really look like? If not now maybe later?" Draco asked
"Sure. Where's your common room?"
"They have the old Head rooms. Not much difference between the two" Cassie said.
"Does that mean I have to go near Lance?"
"Yep"
"Crap, Can we eat now? I'm starving"
"Have you been out surfing again?"
"No way. All Cats hate water."
"Except you"
"Hiss"
"Don't want to get on her bad side" Cassie whispered to Draco and Hermione.
After the Feast
"You guys lead the way" Alana said pointing down the wrong corridor.
"Ah, our common room is down the corridor" Draco said amused by her wrong sense of direction.
"Right, I knew that" She said cheerfully as they walked down the RIGHT corridor.
