Chapter One: A Stranger
It was another year at Hogwarts, yet so much had changed. Ginny boarded the train that took her to her school, which now had really become her home. She had spent the summer with her aunt and uncle and three cousins. Her parents were so worried about her safety that they shipped her off to America to stay with them.
'It will be safe there, Ginny, trust me,' her mother had said before sending her too a totally boring summer stuck in Springfield, California. She so wanted to go to the beach, but her mother left strict instructions not to let her out of there sight. Seeing as her aunt was afraid of sun, and her uncle was always away at work, she never got to go.
"They just don't know what I can do," Ginny said, sighing as she took an empty compartment. She could have sat with her friends, but she did want to hear how great there summer was, and how bad hers was.
The worst part of the whole matter was she was alone. Ron, Hermione, and Harry left there seventh year to fight Voldemort. After Dumbledore died last year, Harry went crazy. He had to find Voldemort. Ron and Hermione, being the good friends they were, left to help him find them. Ginny wanted to help too, but no one would here of it. 'You are too young,' they said. 'You will be killed.' 'You don't have there training.' If Dumbledore had lived he would have let her.
In the middle of all of Ginny's sulking, a boy pulled back the compartment door, and sat down across from Ginny. He took a look around until his eyes landed on Ginny. There, staring at her with silver-gray demon eyes was Draco Malfoy. Ginny couldn't speak, but Draco did.
"What the hell are you doing here mini Weasley. Can't you see that this seat is taken? Go find you another compartment. This one's for the rich kids."
Ginny who was truly shocked that he came into her compartment, and was trying to kick her out, had no cute comment to say back. All she said was, "No!"
Just then a new student, which Ginny had never seen before, came into the compartment. He sat next to Draco. He gave Ginny a puzzled look, and turned to Draco.
Draco smiled nervously, and said, "She was just leaving."
"No I Wasn't!" Ginny propped her feet on the other end of here seat and laid back. She was not going to give up easily.
"We need her out," The boy's voice was very deep. He gave Ginny an ugly look then turned to Draco.
Draco sighed, "Come on Weasley. I need to talk to my friend."
"Who is your friend?" Ginny asked.
"None of your business! Now Go!"
Draco began to pull out his wand, but Ginny already had hers pulled out, and pointed at his chest. Ginny just smiled. The stranger got up, but Draco pulled him back. He knew how good Ginny was. They both sat down. Ginny smiled triumphantly. This year may not be so bad after all.
