It Isn't Over Until It's Over

Chapter Three

Alexandra Ward

Kagome awoke to four heads hovering over her face. When they realized she was awake, three of the heads moved out of her vision.

"Okay time to get up Kagome," Harry said gently as he helped her up, placing his hand in Kagome's and the other behind her back. "Are you alright?" he asked concernedly.

"I'm fine. Just dizzy."

"Here, this will help," Hermione offered her a piece of a chocolate bar. Kagome tentatively took a bite of the chocolate. She warmed up instantly.

"Thanks."

"Um Kagome?" asked Ginny shyly, "Will you please explain what explain what happened?" Kagome's body started to shake all over. Harry instinctively tightened his grip on her hand.

"All will be explained in good time," she replied mysteriously.

Shrugging Harry off of her, she stood up and looked around the compartment. Seeing her bow a good distance away from her, she picked it up and placed it back into her yellow backpack.

"Whatever. You are not worth my time!" exclaimed Ginny as she stood up from her seat in the compartment.

"Ginny!" exclaimed Ron and Hermione.

"What? She won't tell us anything! And besides, I see the way she and Harry look at each other. God, I am not stupid. It's obvious they like each other." Both Harry and Kagome flushed a bright red.

"Let's just say we like each other Ginny. Why would you care? We dated and guess what? You broke up with me, remember?" Harry asked coldly.

"That… that…That's beside the point, Harry! I am the only one who can have you and this…this… this wench can't," Ginny finished with a smug smile on her face.

Kagome took one look at her and started to glow pink. "How dare you treat Harry as an object! I have no problem with you insulting me, but my friends? I don't think so." And with a flick of her wrist, the compartment door opened and without any hesitation, blasted Ginny out the compartment. Kagome walked to the door frame and said, "That was a warning." She then slammed the sliding door shut.

"Look guys, I'm sorry for doing that. I'm just really protective of my friends."

"It's okay Kagome. I mean, yeah, she's my sister, but she has been a bitch since, well, since…"

"Ever since she broke up with me 6 months ago," said Harry, finishing off Ron's trail of thought.

"I'm sorry Harry," said Kagome.

"Don't worry about it. I'm over her," he replied as the train came to a complete stop. They had arrived at Hogwarts.

As soon as Kagome saw the castle she was mesmorized. The castle was a dark, swirling grey she could lost in. It had 4 towers, symbolizing the south, north, east, and west, with a different color and animal banner on each one. She was so caught up with admiring the castle and…

"Kagome, you are going to make a puddle or maybe even a lake with that drool of yours," Hermione said playfully.

"Haha very funny."

"Are you talking to me?" asked Ron.

"Yes Ron, because your name is Kagome," Hermione replied sarcastically.

"Hehehe… Sorry. Not paying attention."

"Obviously," Hermione teasingly retorted as she gave him a smile with an eyebrow cocked upward. Ron saw this and smiled wickedly. "Ron? Ron, what are you up to? RON!" she shrieked as Ron threw her over his right shoulder and ran toward the carriages.

"They had better be dating, otherwise I am setting those two up," Kagome said to Harry.

"Yah. They have been dating for about 5 months now."

"Oh. They are really cute together. I bet-"

"Are you Kagome Higurashi?" a tall grey-haired witch wearing green robes asked Kagome.

"Yes?"

"I am Minerva McGongall. Professor of Transfiguration and the Deputy Headmistress. Please follow me." She turned and started walking toward the castle. Kagome threw a look at Harry who just shrugged. Kagome, doing the only thing she could do in this situation, turned and ran to catch up to Professor McGonagall, leaving Harry to find the other two, Ron and Hermione to head up to the castle for the opening feast.
