A/N: Sorry, I had to brake the next chapter (well was supposed to be the next chapter) into two parts since it was so freaking long. So enjoy! Arden's P.O.V, thought it will be like that for the next two chaps.

Oh yeah, J.K owns all the characters plots and places. Even Cedric, and sweeto Diagon Alley. Wish we had one here in the states…. J Smile! Please Review! And thanks to all that have so far! (really I am sorry that it is so long :) )

Chapter Six: Melody's Water Fun

Arden's P.O.V

"It sucks that we are going to have to wear this all around town," said Melody staring down at the Hermione's black robes.

"At least they let us borrow them Mel," said Kayla shaking her head, "We could have been stuck walking around in only our yesterday outfits. Which actually not warm enough for the weather here, and actually smell a lot like a soccer field."

"What I don't understand is how its March here and when we played the game it was the nearly the end of December." I said turning from my gaze out the train window.

"There are a lot of things that don't make sense about that game." said Kayla shaking her head.

"I hope that wish for powers means we'll be witches. Otherwise we are so in for it." muttered Melody shaking her head.

Shaking my head still I leaned against the side of the wall, letting my forehead press against the window. The train was still moving after what had to have been two hours, with seemingly no intention of stopping anytime soon. It seemed strange though, in the books and movies it always seemed that the trip from the train station to Hogwarts was short- And not so extremely long as this was.

Leaving the castle though had been as quick as it could have ever been. Dumbledore practically herded us out of the castle the moment we finished dressing, shoving bags of money into our pockets and hands.

Which wasn't really all that bad. During the beginning of the train ride earlier we actually counted it all, and figured out that the man had given us over 300 galleons (I of course counted it all being the one who was a Harry Potter nut in my early years, and a little now).

Kayla and Melody had then begun talking about what they were going to buy, of course assuring me on that broom. Dumbledore himself had agreed to let me have one, though in the beginning I had actually been slightly joking. But a broom did seem like something really cool.

"How much longer do you think?" whined Melody as we passed into a forest of trees.

"An hour or two. Maybe five." I joked grinning as Mel sent me a look.

"Actually I think we should be there soon." said Kayla who was staring out the window, "Actually any second."

We both looked at her questioningly before the train came to a complete stop sending us flying to the floor of the compartment.

"This thing has some good brakes." I said as we sat up groaning.

"Did they have to stop like that?" cried Melody before Hagrid stuck his head in the compartment.

Hagrid, who had ran off slightly after we had got off the train smiled down at us through his thick shaggy beard. I must admit though from his size he frightened me, a little. Just a little. It was only the fact that he looked like with one small push he could send me flying through the compartment window.

"Hello Hagrid!" said Kayla happily as she got up, clearly not at all concerned with the fact that the guy was twice her size in width and height.

"'ello. Sorry about that- Conductor says that we had to stop to let a hare pass by-"

"A hare? As in a bunny rabbit!" cried Melody whose face had turned from anger to joy in a split second.

Rolling our eyes me and Kayla sat back in our seats looking up at Hagrid. Kayla was the first to talk as Melody stood up, "So we are almost there? Doesn't that tunnel lead to the platform?"

"Yes, then we're on to Diagon Alley." said Hagrid happily as he pulled his head back closing the door.

"Not a very social man that." said Kayla shaking her head.

"That ain't all bad." I said eyeing the door edgily.

Kayla and Melody rolled their eyes at me before Melody sat back down next to Kayla, trying to run a hand through her shoulder length shiny white blonde curls.

The train indeed did reach the platform in a short time and within moments the three of us were jumping off the train onto a train station platform which made all of us grin.

"At least this is like the movies!" said Kayla happily.

"What did you say?" asked Hagrid turning to her.

"Uhh, at least this is like the tovies. The tovies were a train station in San Francisco-" said Kayla as Hagrid merely nodded.

"Tovies?" asked Melody as we left the train station Hagrid far ahead.

"Well, that's all I could think of at the moment." said Kayla shaking her head.

"I think your losing your touch." I said grinning as Hagrid stopped at a brick wall.

We all stood there as he went on to tell us about how we were supposed to walk through the wall to the outside station. Melody through the whole exchange was getting whiter and whiter, her eyes getting bigger and bigger as she listened.

Lets just say Melody isn't the bravest cat in the litter. In soccer when Kayla and she played, and I watched on the sidelines when I could (usually I was stuck at a basketball game) Kayla was usually the goalie and Mel was usually one of the players whose job was to get the goals. You seen then, Kayla is near fearless. Nearly. Put her a hundred feet off the ground and she'll scream bloody murder. Melody on the other hand is a all around sissy, who feared anything that could get her hurt. Soccer at times even she thinks is to dangerous to play.

"You can't actually expect me to walk through that wall guys." she muttered stepping back.

"Mel its perfectly safe." said Kayla turning to her with her begging face on, "Come'n Mel, it isn't like we can turn around and go back now that we're already this far."

"I'll just go wait on the train guys." she said stepping another step back.

Her mistake sadly was that I was behind her, so that when she stepped back I practically threw her over a shoulder. That's what happens to you when you weigh less then a hundred pounds and have a very buff best friend.

"PUT ME DOWN!" she screamed ramming her little fists against my back.

Kayla meanwhile was bent over laughing as Hagrid just watched us with a surprised and halfly shocked look on his face.

"Clear the way this baby's going first." I said happily walking toward the platform with my wriggling package.

"YOU ARE NOT GOING TO DO THIS ARDEN! I AM SO GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!" screamed Melody as she began to kick madly.

"Alright, I'll put you down." I grinned before grabbing her in my arms again and passing her through the wall.

Kayla stopped laugh wiping her eyes from some moisture that had found its way out, "Thank you Arden, I'll go next and hold her back incase she wants lethal revenge."

"Whatever." I said putting my hands in my pocket and grinning as she walked through the wall.

Hagrid was still standing in somewhat shock, his jaw slightly open. Even if I was slightly scared of him it was amusing seeing how positively horrified he looked.

"If you think this is bad you should see us at Disneyland, that place is a endless amount of entertainment," I said grinning as Hagrid blinked regaining at least some movement, "Getting her to ride splash mountain is like trying to give her cat Mouse a bath."

As Hagrid started to open and close his mouth again I merely walked through the wall coming to the other side. Hearing a screech I turned just to be hit squarely in the face with a burst of water.

Gasping I dragged my glasses off glaring at the blurry images.

"Which one of you did that?" I shouted angrily.

They were still standing there seemingly frozen. Putting my glasses back on after wiping them on my sweater I realized Kayla was staring at Melody incredulously.

"She just sent water out of her hands!" cried Kayla still gaping at Melody.

Melody though was busy staring at her hands, as if waiting for them to sprout boils.

"I just was so angry-" she said stopping as Hagrid stepped through the wall.

"Well we best get movin'." he said fixing his coat slightly.

In a silent agreement we passed to each of us with a look we followed Hagrid out of the crowded train station in silence. Melody was still staring at her hands as we got onto one of the buses, though Kayla was going absolutely bonkers.

"I always wanted to visit England!" she said giddily jumping up and down as we passed a line of shops, "Oh! I can't wait to get home and rub all of this in Janie's face!"

Rolling my eyes I took a seat on one of the benches next to Melody. We were on the lower level, and that was a good thing. Eyeing Hagrid I knew it was a miracle that the floor below him wasn't braking from all that weight.

"Do you think you guys have powers to?" whispered Melody.

Catching that I turned to stare at her as she stared back, still having that lost and shocked look. A look that I still recognized as the one she gave us when she told us what her father had done all those years ago.

"Probably. Seems about right." I said as Kayla came and sat on the other side of Mel.

"Not fair," she whined though she was still smiling, "You get the water power. I'm the swimmer, I should have gotten that."

"Bet me and Kayla will have equally cool powers," I said before looking up at Hagrid to make sure he wasn't looking at us, "By the way- How did you do that?"

Melody blinked shaking her head. "I just got really mad, and was actually going to hit you across the head but it seems the water sort of stopped me."

"You aren't thinking this could be like Charmed are you?" asked Kayla grinning madly.

"No I don't think its like one of your shows." I said shaking my head at her.

We got to say nothing else then. In a moment we were being dragged off the bus and onto a crowded street. Hustling along we tried to stay behind the giant, who was practically pushing everyone out of the way as he walked.

Most of the rest of the time after we passed a Apothecary I spent daydreaming, about pretty much useless things. Like how I missed my Ipod, and my computer. Right about now I would be home playing Halo or some other time consuming game. Alex would be downstairs arguing with Melody, who always came over on Mondays after school. Kayla would be in the middle of swim practice somewhere.

The fact that we weren't doing any of that made something twist in my stomach. Despite our adventure that was currently happening all around us, I truly did miss home. Even with the chance of changing things from the book or gallivanting about a castle that I only dreamed about visiting when we were home.

I was so busy thinking about my homesickness that I didn't even notice that we were nearing Diagon Alley until Kayla and Melody gasped.

Looking up from my shoes I realized that we must have gone through a pub or something, and were now standing at the back in front of a brick wall.

"I haven't done anything yet." said Hagrid looking at us strangely, though not for the first time today and definitely not for the last.

"Um, we're just admiring how well crafted it is." said Kayla stepping forward and giving a brick a tap. "See? Sturdy, very nice."

Melody stiffened a giggle as Kayla stepped back, Hagrid still giving her a odd look.

"Well," he said turning to look at all of us though one of his bushy eyebrows were still raised, "When we get in I'll go get your books and supplies- You three can handle the rest."

"Alright." we all said together.

"Great." he said turning back around.

We then watched as he tapped the bricks gasping all together again as the doorway appeared.

Melody quickly handed him half of the galleons before she walked through seemingly in a daze. Kayla who got back her senses faster then me hurried through grabbing Melody as we walked on. I was barely aware of the doorway closing behind us before we were on the very street of Diagon Alley.

"Sweet!" I cried as we twirled about.

It was crowded, but not overly. Melody quickly dragged us toward a robes shop, Madam Malkins.

The store was huge though not as big as I had thought it would be when reading the books. The place was packed with robes and all sorts of clothing.

What followed was the longest twenty minutes of my life.

That was really all it took to get measured. But the lady who did the measuring was practically creepy. Anything they wrote about in the books about her being warm (though I don't remember either way) is totally wrong.

For one the lady never stops smiling. She's short, almost munchkin size. She makes both Kayla and Melody look like giants.

By the time we got out of there both girls had me ladled down with bags, and boxes filled with all sorts of robes and uniforms.

"Am I going to be your packhorse all day long?" I whined as we walked down the street.

"If you want that broom you will be." said Melody grinning slightly at Kayla.

"Hey! That isn't fair! I could just go buy one with my money-"

"Nope. Sorry deary but while you were trying on clothes-" said Kayla holding a bag in her hands, "I had to borrow it for a while, maybe the rest of the day."

"Your evil." I said glaring down at her.

"So with no money you have to follow every whim of ours." said Melody smirking at me.

"Lets go get a owl!" cried Kayla smiling happily as she noticed the Magical Menagerie.

"Sounds good." I grumbled as we entered the shop, with me juggling all the boxes in my arms.

The place was smelly, and not like any pet shop we have at home. It was practically just one big room filled with a gazillion animals.

"Oh their so cute!" cried Melody happily as she looked into all the cages like a little kid in a candy store.

"We should get a ugly one just so we don't get attached.." said Kayla though she herself was smiling at a snowy white owl.

Shaking my head I waited by the doorway watching them. That was until I noticed Melody, who was petting a owl in one of the cages give a shriek.

Yanking her hand back I almost laughed at the tiny bird attached. Whipping her hand about she tried to dislodge the bird- The whole while shrieking like a bloody banshee.

Kayla was at her side in a instant. "Hold still Mel!"

"GET IT OFF OF ME!" she screamed her face turning red.

I rushed over dropping the boxes in a pile nearby as I grabbed her arm.

Yanking hard on the bird, Kayla was able to yank it off though it flew off, much to the dismay of the shopkeeper who gave a shout and grabbed what looked to be a net chasing the bird about the store.

"Ouch." said Melody looking down at her finger which was now bleeding.

Melody then looked up at the bird angrily. "Creatures like that should be chained behind bars!"

"Uh it sort of was before you freed it." said Kayla grinning though Melody merely glared.

Before I could warn them water suddenly began to fly to the floor. Melody looked in horror as water began to flood the bottom of the shop seemingly gushing out of her hands.

"Arden!" she cried.

"Think of something happy!" I suggested though that merely made it worse the water coming faster.

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!" cried the shop owner.

Seemingly fear turned that water off faster then a lightning bug. Melody the minute she was freed from being a human water sprout ran through the puddle of water and out the door. After grabbing the boxes with Kayla's help we fled the store just as the shopkeeper gave a shout of anger.

"We are definitely not going in there again!" muttered Kayla as we finally stopped farther down the road from the Menagerie.
