Chapter 2

Jake Meets Harry

As Jake awoke he realized he was in a train compartment. Then the compartment door opened and into his compartment came three figures. As the saw him they thought his head was injured and called for help. The nurse was at his side in moments in seconds asking first what happened then asking who he was after not recognizing him. With him feeling lightheaded he managed to reply "I'm an American transfer from New York, I just blacked out that's all, my names Jake Long." The nurse being nervous accepted his tale and gave his some healing potion to revive him. Then she introduced herself and the three figures, "Hello I'm Madam Pomfrey and this is Ron Weasly, Hermione Granger, and of course Harry Potter." She said in a soft kind voice. "You better get dressed into your wardrobe I expect we'll be arriving soon." Hermione replied after Madam Pomfrey left. "Um actually I think I forgot to pack em, uh what's your name again?" he asked Harry. "My name is Harry, do you want to borrow one of mine?" Harry replied. "Sure" Jake said. After arriving Jake went to watch sorting and ate like a troll, at the Sorting Feast at the Griffindor table, it was the best food he ever tasted. After the feast he decided to go to the Griffindor boy's sleeping chamber and use a bed that was transfigured by McGonagall from simply a log and a bush. Ron was suspicious about Jake and went to Professor Dumbledore about Jake.

"No we haven't had any record of an American transfer for this year Mr. Weasly. Why are you questioning me about this particular subject?"

"Bloody hell" Ron said when he was finally back in the Griffindor common room with Harry.

"What?" Harry asked.

"Jake isn't a wizard at all; he's a muggle." Ron replied

"WHAT?" Harry yelled. As Harry yelled Jake awoke wondering what the hell was going on. As Jake came down the stairs Ron and Harry drew their wands from their robes and shouted

"Don't move or we'll curse you, we know you're not really a wizard."

"Wait! Did I ever say I was a wizard?"

"No but you did get on the train so-"

"So you assumed I was a wizard because of that little detail." Jake said finishing Harry's sentence. At those last few words Hermione came out of the girls sleeping chamber to discover this bizarre scene.

"WHAT are you two doing!" she nearly shouted at Harry and Ron
