In Hogwarts...

"This is amazing! Oh, shut up Athene!" Raechelle scolded her owl.

"Wow, my dad was right... we are so lucky to be here!" a boy with messy black hair and green eyes whispered dazed.

"Hey, it's Albus!" Hugo grinned.

"I'm going to say hi to him! Who wants to come with me?" Fred smirked.

"I'll go with you!" Raechelle offered.

"Let's go!"

They weaved through the crowd of girls swooning girls and finally got to the center. Albus was trying to get out of the crowd.

"Raechelle, don't say anything. He won't trust you. I've got this! Follow me." Fred an Raechelle got on either side of Albus.

"You need help? It seems there's riot over here. We can help you. Follow my lead." Fred weaved through the crowd again.

Hugo was sitting down. And waved them over. They all sat down.

"Fred Weasly ll, Hugo Weasly, and Raechelle Patil, don't worry we know who you are." Fred smiled.

"Why must every girl love me? It's so frustrating! I just want to have a good time with a few friends... when I have some."

They all looked at him trying to hint him they were his friends. "Okay! I get it! You guys are my friends! And you too, Raechelle."

Headmistress McGonagall signaled for the students to come in.

Then the sorting hat took place. After a few minutes someone called out a name they actually knew.

"Patil, Rashelle?"

"Um, it's Raechelle."

"Alright, Raechelle."

They placed the sorting hat on her head.

"Slytherin! No I'm kidding! Gryfindor!" the hat yelled.

The Gryfindor table roared and applauded for their new comer.

"Weasly, Fred."

"Gryfindor!"

"Weasly, Hugo."

"Gryfindor!"

"Potter, Albus."

"EEEEEEEEEEE!" girls screamed.

"Be a Slytherin! I'll be there!"

"Everyone is nice in Hufflepuff! Especially me!"

"You're smart! And everyone's smart in Ravenclaw! And you can join me on the spells and hexes team!"

"Be in Gryfindor that's where your friends are!" Raechelle reminded him.

Albus put on the hat and,

"Gryfindor!"

"WOOOOOO!" the Gryfindor table celebrated.

Albus smiled and sat with his friends.

5 weeks into the year...

"Ugh! I hate potions! I can't do anything right!" Hugo whined.

"Don't worry! It was only a participation grade! I'm so glad mine didn't explode! Like that one person's did? Who would put 1 leaf off a mandrake's buttock if it didn't ask for it! What an idiot!" Raechelle laughed.

That idiot was ME!" Hugo pointed out.

"Oh. Uh, sorry?"

"You better be. Oh, what do we have next?"

"Defense Against the Dark Arts. Hey, there's Fred and Albus!"

They met up with them and headed to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. Professor Riverall told everyone to sit down anywhere at the desks.

"Now, who knows what vampires are? All of you, just my luck! Now who knows the first ever name they were given with? Rakel, is it?" Riverall asked.

"Raechelle, sir. And the answer is Homo Nosferatu Vampris."

"Correct! 20 points to Gryfindor! Now, what's a werewolf's first name? Mei-Lei?"

"Lyconthropes, professor."

"Correct! 20 points to Ravenclaw! Who knows how to cure a werewolf bite? Fred?"

"You can't. Your just going to have to live it. Unless your talking about actually clean out the wound. That's when you get the pus and then you have to stick a blood purifier up his or her's-"

"Thank you, Fred, that'll be enough!" Riverall interrupted.

Raechelle smirked at him.

"Very lesson friendly, Fred," she whispered to him.

He nodded smiling.

"Now, open up your textbooks to page 1,891" Riverall instructed.

They read about the life styles and traits of both creatures. It was very interesting and some people were pretending to be vampires (Fred).

"Oh my! Time did fly by! Class dismissed!" Riverall announced.

"That was interesting lesson! I hope we do that again!" Raechelle said.

"I wonder what we are going to do this time in Divination. Last time was so weird!" Albus remembered.

They all climbed to the Divination tower and were greeted by Professor Lovegood.

"To see the future, you must study the art of the future. And you will be punished or rewarded with the future itself. I'll hand you a tea cup and you shall put the ashes into the cup. I went to the mountains to find an American Hex en beast. I looked into the cup I had and it said that I will discover something big! And I did. I find it's strand of hair. Caught in between a rock. Beautiful isn't it?" Lovegood told them dreamily as she handed out the cups.

"She's crazy! She has to be!" Fred whispered to Raechelle.

"I agree. Oh well, let's look at the book and the ashes," Raechelle sighed.

At the table next to theirs, Hugo and Albus looked at their cups and told each other what they saw.

"My cup says that you are admired, admirable, and an admirer. Well, aren't you lucky!" Hugo smirked.

"My cup says that you need to be cautious of those in blue. Well, stay away of Ravenclaws!" Albus shrugged.

"My cup says that you will be rewarded for your acts of kindness," Raechelle smiled.

"Like I'll ever be rewarded for telling you guys how to clean a werewolf wound! It's very helpful! But my cup says... I have no idea what this means!" Fred stammered.

"Let me see! It looks like a a plant, I think; let's ask Professor Lovegood!" Raechelle suggested.

"You poor seers need help. I predicted this moment this morning. This is the...not again!"

"What is it, Professor?" Raechelle asked, worried.

"It's the mandrake stem. You will be punished for you sins!" Professor Lovegood announced dramatically. "Oh. Class dismissed."

"I'm sorry, Raechelle! I should've poured the ashes differently! I bet she was lying! To me it looked a bit more like a dove!" Fred tried to cheer Raechelle up.

"What for? Beauty and innocence? I'm definitely not those!" Raechelle replied sadly.

"Raechelle, what's wrong?" Albus asked.

"That class is a bunch of crap! Mine said beware of Ravenclaws! Then one asked me my name... a hot one!" Hugo grinned while nodding.

Fred rolled his eyes.

"Well, aren't you lucky!" Albus replied sarcastically.

"Yeah, I'll see you at the banquet. I need to go to the bathroom."

Raechelle went to the bathroom and saw a Ravenclaw girl.

"Do you know Hugo?" she asked Raechelle.

"Yes. Why?"

"I never told him my name. I'm Mei-Lei Chang. Tell him that if you seem him. Please?"

"Okay."

"I'd like him to introduce me to Albus," Mei-Lei blushed.

"I shouldn't tell him that, should I?" Raechelle suggested.

"Please don't! And thank you..."

"Raechelle Patil. Nice to meet you. See you around, Mei-Lei."

At the banquet...

"Mei-Lei is a pretty name! Suits her well!" Hugo smirked.

"I bet she doesn't even like you," Fred told him.

"So, your jealous, eh Fred?" Hugo stated.

"No. She isn't the type of girl I would like. I have preferences."

Raechelle felt really guilty about this. Hugo was going to get his dreams crushed. But Mei-Lei is a Ravenclaw. She understands stuff like this.

"Hi, Hugo!" Mei-Lei waved, beaming a pretty smile.

"Hey, Mei-Lei!" Hugo waved back.

"I want to get to know you better..." she trailed off, looking at him innocently.

"Let me introduce you to my friends!" Hugo introduced everyone to her. And she shook everyone's hand.

"It was really nice talking to you! See you tomorrow!" Mei-Lei waved and looked at Albus.

She is smart. Devious, but smart. She knows what to do. And what not.

"Wow. You are lucky, Hugo," Albus told him.

"I honestly don't like her. She reminds me of a Slytherin!" Fred shuddered.

"She seems fine to me, Fred. Let me go talk to her," Raechelle smiled.

"His pupils dilated, pulse quickened, and watched me leave... perfect! He totally loves me! You should observe your friends. Look for the things I just said. You'd be surprised! Thank you, Raechelle. Really. I will repay you sometime," Mei-Lei vowed.

"No problem. Thanks for your advice," Raechelle smiled, friendly. She would take her advice tomorrow.
