Chapter 5

Hailey and her friends were on the plane to London. All of them could barely contain their excitment. All of the people on the plane were a little nervous. It was almost everybody's first time on a muggle thing like a plane. Brooms are much better.

"So, Hailey, are you excited," Hailey's other friend name David asked. Hailey looked up from her book.

"Oh yeah, Dave. I'm so excited and I just can't hide it," she said monotonously. She knew she was born in London and was hoping to look into that. "I can't wait to get to Hogwarts. It's much better than our crappy school. At least they have it where they live there and can get away from their families. To think, just to live in a castle. It must be awsome."

She started to daze off. Austin noticed and started waving his hands frantically in front of her. To no use. Liddy, short for Lydia, snapped her fingers by her ear. Hailey looked up at once. She said her apoligies and went back to her book.

"I for one, can't wait to get to Hogwarts," Dave started. "I heard that Harry Potter, the Harry Potter, goes there. How cool would that be to meet him?"

Hailey looked up when the name Potter was said. "Oh yeah. Really cool. Not. He's just a normal boy who has friends and wants to left alone. He had a hard life. If you see him leave him alone. He probably didn't ask for the fame or any of it. But I heard about his friends Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. I read about them in the paper. That Granger is supposed to be very smart. I wouldnt want to mess with her. And then there's Weasley. I saw his picture a couple times. He's really cute. Either way. That is one trio of friends that I'd rather not deal with. You mess with one and the other two will fight back. Like we do."

The others remained silent. They were all hoping to get an autograph. Hailey wasn't, but she was going to talk to him. She felt complete sypemtathy for the boy. She hasn't even met him and she feels like she knows him. Why is it that she felt so drawn to the Boy Who Lived? And another thing, why did they share the same name? That thought has always haunted her.

"Man, I can't wait to get there and show those Britts what real rock is! They think they know all there is cause the Bettals were a hit but they don't," Austin said enthusiastically. Everyone nodded their heads in responce.

Liddy added her own thoughts. "I know. I am like pyshced. I want to visit some of the castles and all the stuff here too. That would be awsome."

Hailey smiled as she watched her friends go on and talk and goof around like they always do. Normally they would talk about pranks to pull. Like that one time while Dave was in the shower, Hailey and Austin put green food coloring in his shampoo. Oh, that was a classic.

Then she thought about where they were staying. Apparently, Potter boy's friend, Granger, had a huge house. But not all of them. Only Hailey and her friends. Everybody else was split up and going to other kids that go to Hogwarts. It was like a foriegn exchange program.

A voice came on the intercome overhead, "Attention passengers, we are now arriving at London International Airport. Please fasten your seatbelts and prepare to land. Thank you for flying U.S. Airlines."

After that, everyone got off the plane and got their luggage. Waiting for Hailey and her friends was Harry Potter, his parents, and Hermione Granger. Hailey's mind surged. Memories that she never remembered making came back to her. She stepped foward with a hand extended.

"Hi. I'm Hailey Potter. These are my friends Austin, David, and Liddy," she said. Each person nodded and said their greating as she said his or her name. "I take it your Hermione Granger, the person we're staying with."

"Yes. This is Harry Potter, his parents, Lily and James," Hermione said politly. "Come on, we'll go."

They all crammed into a mini van. Hermione driving with Liddy up with her. Mione was discussing Hogwarts and what she read in Hogwarts; a History. Then Lily and James were in the next seats. Then David and Austin, talking about everything. Then in the last seats were Harry and Hailey. There was an akward silence between them.

Harry took the plunge. "So."

Hailey responded likewise, "So."

"So, do you like Quidditch?" Harry asked that thinking it to be the easiest.

"Oh yeah. I love Quidditch. Do you play it for school?"

"Yeah. I play Seeker for Gryffindor. Do you play it for your school too," Harry responded glad to find something.

"Yes. I play Chaser," Hailey said. "So did your dad play it too when he was in school?"

"Um, yes. He played Chaser too. I think." Harry was having enough trouble trying to converse with this girl. He couldn't shake the memory of his parents telling him who this was after Hermione said the names of the kids staying with them.

:flashback:

"Harry, we need to talk," Lily began. "One of the girls staying with us this summer, her name's Hailey, well she's your twin sister.

"I have a twin sister? How cool is that?" Harry was so excited. He couldn't wait to meet her.

"Harry, pay attention to this, for it's very important. We have talked to Dumbledor, and he does not think it would be a good idea to tell her yet. She doens't know. She probably doesn't even know she has a brother," James said carefully. Harry nodded.

"But Dad, couldn't we drop hints to her? I mean she'll probably wonder why we all have the same last name," he said. James and Lily shook their heads regretfuly.

:end flashback:

Harry made a promise to himself that he would get to know her and at least try to be her friend. Mabe, hopefully, she'd find out the truth.

"We're here," came Hermione's ringing voice from the front. "Do you want some help with your bags?"

"Sure," they all said at once.

They all went inside. Hermione gave them the tour of the house, and then shown them where she, Harry, his mum and dad, and Sirious were sleeping. Then she showed everyone to there rooms. Hailey got her room last. She was pleased to find that it was by Harry's and Hermione's room.

When she pushed open the door, she found a lilac painted room with purple furniture and a big four-poster bed.

"It's beautiful. Thank you, Hermion," Hailey said warmly. "Purple is my third favorite color."

"I'll let you settle in. Would you like someone to help?" Hailey shook her head. Hermione walked out and closed the door. Only to replaced by Harry.

"What do you need, Harry," she asked as she opened her trunk to put her books and other stuff like a photo albem on the tall bookshelf that Hermione putt in her room.

"I just wanted to see if you needed anything," he began. She shook her head. "Well do you neeed any help."

"Sure. Do you want to help me put these books away," she asked. He nodded and sat down. He picked up some of the photo albems.

"What are these?"

"Well, some of them are of me and my friends. Some are just pictures I took of places where we went. And then one is of my familey. Well not my adoptive family."

"You have an adoptive family?" Harry was surprised.

"Yes. My parents died when I was little. I live with a foster family."

Harry looked inquizitive. "Don't you have other family?"

"Yeah. I have an Auntie Viv in the States. She was my dad's sister. Then I waas told that I have some family here. I want to find them. She's my mom's sister too. All aunts. Can we please talk about a more pleasent subject?"

"Sure. Let's see. We've talked about Quidditch. We've talked about families. What else is there to talk about? I know. What type of music do you listen too," Harry asked.

"Punk, rock, and most types of metal. Some country and pop," she said without thinking about it. Hermione's voice drifted up the stairs.

"Harry, could you please come down here and help me a minute?"

Harry sighed. "Coming dear. Well, nice talking to you, Hailey."

She smiled and nodded. "Mhmm. Bye."

He walked out and shut the door. "Goodbye, sis."
