Lia felt someone shaking her, Lia sighed and woke up then she fluttered open her eyes and saw Hermione who was fully dressed standing in front of her.
"We're going to start classes soon so I suggest you hurry, oh and maybe you should wake Alex, she keeps snoring. Well goodbye," with that Hermione walked out of the girl's dormitory.
Lia sat up and saw that as Hermione stated, Alex was indeed, snoring. So Lia reached into her trunk and pulled out a dirty spoon with dirt smudged on it, Lia grinned and stuck the dirty spoon into Alex's open mouth. Lia then quickly got dressed and in a few moments she heard coughing and looked at Alex who was slowly waking up.
"Why was there a dirty spoon in my mouth?" Alex asked sleepily.
"Isn't it obvious?" Lia asked back.
Lia grabbed her books, quill, and ink then Alex screamed sounding horror struck.
"You! You stuck the dirty spoon in my mouth while I was sleeping!"
"Don't worry," Lia reassured, "it was only in your mouth for... maybe a couple minutes."
Alex tried to grab Lia, but Lia already dashed out of the girl's dormitory and ran down the stairs, laughing. She knew that she would have to hurry because as soon as Alex was ready she would kill Lia, but then she heard a voice coming from behind her.
"What's the hurry?" the voice said, Lia turned around and saw the twins standing there looking at her.
"I put a dirty spoon in Alex's mouth and as soon as she is done getting ready she is going to kill me," Lia stated.
The twins laughed, then Lia walked over to the notice board, Hermione was right, classes started in eight minutes. She looked at the first years schedule and saw that her first class was Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall. The question was: how was she going to get to Transfiguration if she didn't know where the classroom was? Apparently the twins noticed this to because then they linked their arms with Lia's.
"Hey! What are you two doing?" Lia asked.
The twins rolled their eyes, "taking you to your class obviously," Fred said to her.
Lia let them steer where she had to go, they went down the stairs, into portraits, passed through corridors and doors. Then finally they reached a courtyard and the twins stopped in front of a door and they both let go of Lia's arms at the same time.
"After classes are done today," Fred started.
"How about we show you the secret passages in the school?" George finished, both of them had grins on their faces.
"Sounds great. Thanks for showing me to Transfiguration," Lia smiled.
The twins left and Lia faced the door and pushed the doors open, she saw that most of the class was there but Lia was fine with that, but the classmates turned around to see who entered the room, Lia saw Draco Malfoy and sighed, apparently they had Transfiguration with the Slytherin's. Draco looked at her and pointed to the seat next to him, Lia suspected this as a gesture for her to sit next to him. No way in bloody hell Lia thought, but instead she shook her head and sat next to Hermione. Then Lia set her stuff down on the desk and looked up and saw Professor McGonagall who was sitting at her desk looking at papers. Then soon she stood up from her desk and walked closer to the students. Lia predicted that she would make some sort of lecture.
"Transfiguration is some of the most complex and dangerous magic you will learn at Hogwarts," she started. "Anyone messing around in my class will leave and not come back. You have been warned."
"And with that inspiring speech," Lia whispered to Hermione, and Lia thought she saw a twist of Hermione's mouth, so apparently Hermione was resisting trying to smile.
Professor McGonagall turned around and changed her desk into a pig and back again. Lia had to admit that it was pretty cool, but she was sure that they wouldn't be learning that for a very long time. Professor McGonagall then gave them complicated notes, Lia was the first to finish writing, then after a few minutes Professor McGonagall handed them all a match and instructed them to turn it into a needle. Lia tried and tried but nothing happened. She thought the match was sharper and pointer, but that was all. Hermione successfully turned it into a needle and McGonagall gave her a rare smile. So apparently Professor McGonagall could smile.
Then the class was dismissed, she walked with Hermione to Defence Against the Dark Arts. Then Alex caught up with Lia and Hermione, apparently she had forgotten Lia's prank on her. They were close to the classroom, then a boy popped in front of her, it was Ron.
"Hi- er hey Lia," he said, his ears were red.
"Hi there Ron," Lia smiled at him.
"Um well I was wondering- it's just that people are saying- are you part veela?" He asked, his ears went into a deeper shade of red.
Lia just laughed, "No I'm not, I am a pure witch."
Ron's mouth quivered and he walked away. Lia laughed and continued walking to the classroom, soon they came to the door, and the other class was coming out of the classroom. Lia was happy and surprised to see the twins, who were talking to each other in whispers, then they saw Lia and they both walked over to her.
"So you have Defence Against the Dark Arts?" George asked, though Lia could tell it was a rhetorical question.
"I warn you though, Professor Quirrell's whole classroom smells of garlic, oh and his turban stinks, but we believe it's stuffed with garlic as well," Fred told her.
"Noted, thanks. See you later guys," Lia smiled at them and walked inside the classroom. The twins were right it smelled strongly of garlic, there was pretty much garlic everywhere. Lia knew that vampires apparently hated garlic. The moment they came in and were settled Professor Quirrell stood up, and he opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything because he hit the desk. A few people laughed, Lia just smiled.
Someone asked Professor Quirrell how he got his turban, so he started his lesson saying that he got his turban from an African prince as a thank-you for getting rid of a troublesome zombie. Lia however did not believe this story because Professor Quirrell was constantly shaking and stuttering. Seamus even asked how Professor Quirrell defeated the zombie, but then Professor Quirrell started talking about the weather. Then they were to read from their books and write notes.
After that they had Charms with Professor Flitwick. Lia still didn't know where this class was, but apparently Hermione did, so Lia just followed her, with Alex close by. When they entered the room Professor Flitwick started the class with a register. He paused when he said Lia's name, he looked at her, but then a smile crossed his face when he saw the Gryffindor on his robes.
"Much like your mother I take it?" Professor Flitwick asked.
Lia smiled brightly, she had never really been compared to her mother, Lia just nodded. Though in some ways she was like the black sheep of the family, she certainly had her mother's beauty but had the eyes of her father. Lia was the black sheep of the family since none of her family was funny or pranksters.
Charms were alright, again they were to write notes, but they had to learn some proper wand movements. It was a simple class, but it moved by quickly, even though it was a double class. When Professor Flitwick dismissed them Lia knew exactly where she had to go to get to the Great Hall. She was telling Hermione and Alex some of her jokes, the three of them laughed, then they came to the Great Hall, Lia saw Fred and George. She looked at Hermione and Alex, they just nodded and Lia ran over to them and pushed the twins apart. The twins looked up at Lia and Lia sat right in between them.
"Can you pass me one of those sandwiches George?" She asked him.
George just looked blankly at her, almost like she had just met them again. Apparently no one had done what she had. Lia snapped her fingers in front of George, and then she shook him.
"George! Can you pass me one of those sandwiches that are right beside you?"
George snapped out of it and passed her a sandwich, "sorry" he muttered but with a grin.
Lia grinned back and started eating her sandwich. Soon she was finished eating, then she looked at Fred who was drinking some pumpkin juice, then she looked at George who was now eating a sandwich. Lia grabbed some apple cider, she poured it in her goblet then she drank it.
"So how was your mornin'?" George asked her.
Lia swallowed her cider then put her goblet down, "boring."
Fred smiled, "same here."
Lia finished her cider, she chugged it down really. Then the three of them started talking to each other, mostly of the pranks they were planning to pull and who they would prank. Lia was thinking of pranking Draco soon. But Lia had to think of a prank, she had so many choices, but she wanted to wait 'till she knew some spells so that it would much more fun. Fred and George promised to teach her some of their favourite spells they use to prank people. Soon classes were due to start, Lia said her goodbyes to the twins and ran off to join Hermione and Alex, Hermione was talking about a book called Hogwarts a History and Alex was talking about her favourite subject: boys. Until Lia came towards them they both stopped.
"So how'd it go?" Alex asked eagerly.
"Look Alex, they're my friends, nothing more alright?" Lia rolled her eyes.
"Aw come on, but you could have any guy you ever wanted! You're way to pretty, and besides they probably like you. Plus you and George or Fred or whichever one would make the cutest couple ever!" Alex whined. Lia only shook her head; she didn't think she wanted one of the twins. Either way they were great friends, though Lia couldn't help but think that Alex would try to get her and one of them together, and if Lia knew her best friend, Alex wouldn't give up for a long time.
That afternoon they had Herbology, Lia had a bad feeling about this class, she had troubles putting in enough dirt for the plant, and she gave the plant too much water. Alex though had worse problems, since she wouldn't even touch the dirt, even though she was wearing gloves. Lia just grabbed some dirt and poured it down her shirt. Alex hit Lia hard, but Lia didn't care, it was a good prank. Besides Alex would now touch the dirt since she had to take a shower anyways because of Lia. It was double Herbology. After that they had Transfiguration again. Then the day was over.
Then Lia went to the Great Hall and saw the twins again, as they promised they showed her the secret passages, they wouldn't allow her to go to the passageway leading to Honey dukes because the people there would know that she was a first year. Then the twins showed her the Marauder's Map that they stole from Filch's office in their first year. Lia was fascinated by the map, they told her how to "unlock it" then how to make the stuff on the map disappear. It was simple, plus the twins said they would allow her to use it anytime she wanted. All she had to say was "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good," and "mischief managed."
It was a pretty good first day, then Lia went with the twins back to the common room, Lia had to do her Transfiguration homework, but the twins were nice to help her. Lia knew that Alex was watching, she was writing stuff down, Lia almost thought she was taking notes or something but she was doing her homework as well. When Lia was finished her homework she thanked the twins, then they went downstairs to eat dinner. Lia sat in between the twins, with Alex and Hermione on the other side of George. Hermione was in deep conversation with Percy, Lia figured that Hermione wouldn't like George that much. But Alex was having a good conversation with Lee who was in front of her.
After dinner Lia went back to the common room, she was finished her homework so she decided to pull a prank on Dean Thomas. It was a good prank, and Dean seemed to forgive her for pulling a prank on her, he even admitted it was a good prank. Lia made sure Cassy wasn't around so she couldn't take points off of her. Negative. The best part of the day must have been how people didn't compare her at all to her father, in fact they all really liked Lia, and she was instantly popular. It must have been her being placed in Gryffindor, since people knew her mother was in Gryffindor. Lia loved being in Gryffindor, she loved the people, she loved how no one judged her, she was glad she wasn't put into Slytherin.
Lia went into the girl's dormitory and went to the writing desk. She began writing a letter to her parents:
Dear mother... or father
I have been put into Gryffindor whether you like it or not Hunter, and I enjoy it. I have made many friends and I am glad that I am no longer being judged for what you have done in the past. The first day was great, I had normal classes, and so far I have done well in all the classes except for Herbology. So my dear mother, I hope you are proud of me, because I know that Hunter will not. Do not worry Cassy is keeping a very close and uncomfortable eye on me, but she does not know that I am looking out for her as well. That is all I guess, oh and before you send Hawkeye back could you give him some food. I hope Scorch is doing well without me, though I suspect he keeps making noises that keep everyone up, if so just give him some steak, he loves it.
Lia.
Lia read over the letter a few times, then she sealed it, she would give it to Hawkeye to deliver in the morning. Lia walked over to her bed and reached over onto her pillow and grabbed her PJ's which lay there. Lia got dressed quickly and then Alex came in.
"Hey Fred and George are looking for you," she said sarcastically.
Lia set her letter under the bed on her trunk, "funny,"
The two girls started talking about their first day and everything. Then Alex started talking about boys and Lia listened to her. Then soon Lia crawled under the covers and turned out the light then tried to get to sleep. She had troubles sleeping so she was up for a few hours then she finally fell asleep.
The next day nothing important really happened, Lia went downstairs holding her letter, the owls flew in and Hawkeye landed in front of Lia, Lia gave Hawkeye some fruit and then the letter with the address on it. "Bring this letter to Hunter and Mum, you know where they live."
Hawkeye flew away and Lia started eating, this time she sat between Hermione and Alex. Hermione was explaining their homework and Lia was listening to her, taking some notes while she ate. Then it was time for classes, the day almost flew by, Lia successfully turned her match into a needle the Transfiguration class, and in Defence Against the Dark Arts she got Gryffindor 10 points, but she lost 5 points in Herbology for pouring the water from her watering can on Crabbe as a prank, everyone seemed to find it funny except for Crabbe and Professor Sprout. Apparently disappointed though, since Draco actually laughed and enjoyed her standing next to him for the few seconds, he tried to strike up a conversation but Lia walked back to her spot before he got the chance.
Then the day was once again over, Lia did her homework with some help from Hermione and then she, Fred, and George pulled a prank on a Slytherin at dinner.
It was a Friday, Lia got dressed and went downstairs, and she saw that she had Potions class with a Professor Snape. Lia remembered when she was stuck at home every day and she made potions, apparently the potions she made when she was 10 were for 3rd years at Hogwarts, so Lia figured this would be her best class. She was technically 3 years ahead of everyone else; she could probably even help the twins with their homework.
Lia looked at the list and realized she had Double Potions, but with the Slytherins, which meant she'd be stuck with Malfoy. Lia had heard from the twins that Snape favoured the slimy Slytherins. Lia made her way down to the Great Hall for breakfast. She was eating, Hermione was beside her, and then Fred came and sat beside Lia.
"So what class do you have now?" He asked curiously.
Lia shrugged and grabbed some pancakes, "Double Potions, but with the slimy Slytherin's," when she said this she looked disgustedly at the Slytherin's.
Fred grabbed some waffles, "ouch I feel sorry for you."
Then the owls began to fly in, Hawkeye came right to Lia. He was holding a package, he swooped down and landed in front of her. Lia smiled and grabbed the package, she gave Hawkeye some more fruit and then he flew away. Lia looked at the package, there was a letter attached to it. So Lia opened it and read:
Dear Lia,
I am very proud of you, your father though is very... angry right now and he refuses to talk to you now. So I am going to send you some sweets for you to enjoy with your friends. Thank you for the advice on Scorch, we have been trying to get him to stop since he keeps waking up everyone every night. I am very glad to hear that you have made friends and have joined Gryffindor. Your father will get over it soon don't worry.
Love, your mother.
Lia smiled as she read the letter, then she opened up the package and sure enough it was filled and cramped with candies. Lia grabbed a few candies and ate some. Then she offered some to Fred and Hermione, they both were happy and they took a few. Then when George and Alex came later on Lia gave some to them. Then when Lia was finished eating she went back to the common room and into the girls dormitory, she carried her package and letter up there. Lia put her letter on her bedside table and she put the package locked up in her trunk.
Then Lia grabbed what she would need for her Potions class, and made her way down to the dungeons, she walked in the classroom. Most of the Slytherin's were already there, Lia sat in the desk that was beside Draco's but she only sat there because Alex was sitting there. After a few minutes the rest of the class piled in then the door opened again and Professor Snape stormed in.
"There will be no foolish wand-waving or silly incantations in this class... As such I don't exact many of you to appreciate the subtle science and exact art that is potion making. However, those select few, who possess the precious position..." He started, he looked at Draco then his eyes trailed to Lia, and his eyes fell upon where the Gryffindor badge lay, "I can teach you how to bewitch the mind and ensnare the senses. I can tell you how to bottle fame, brew glory, and even put a stopper in death." He paused, because he was looking at Harry. Apparently he was writing what Professor Snape was saying.
"Then again, maybe some of you have come to Hogwarts in possession of abilities so formidable that you feel confident enough to. Not. Pay. Attention!" Professor Snape continued looking at Harry. Apparently Harry wasn't completely paying attention because Hermione had to nudge him, which made Harry put his quill back in his ink. Professor Snape walked closer to him.
"Mr. Potter... our new celebrity," Professor Snape said as she stared down on Harry, "tell me what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?"
Lia grabbed her notebook and opened it to the front page. She reached over to the top of her desk and grabbed her quill, she scribbled down on the page in her notebook:
Asphodel and wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death.
Some people looked at her, since her writing was really fast and was making some noises, but Harry was still looking at Professor Snape and he just shook his head.
"You don't know? Well let's try again, where Mr. Potter would you look if I asked you to find me a bezoar?"
Lia rolled her eyes, the answer was so easy!
A bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat and it will save you from most poisons.
When she finished Harry said: "I don't know, sir."
Professor Snape's face was hard to read, "and what is the difference between monkshood and wolfsbane?"
Monkshood and wolfsbane are the same plant which also goes by the name of actonite.
"I don't know, sir," Harry replied again.
"Pity, clearly fame isn't everything, is it Mr. Potter?" Professor Snape's lips curled into a sneer.
Professor Snape began walking back to his desk, but apparently he stopped in front of Lia's desk, he looked at her notebook. His lip's twitched and he picked up the notebook, "it seems your classmate knows more about potions than you Mr. Potter. Asphodel and wormwood make a sleeping potion so powerful it is known as the Draught of Living Death. A bezoar is a stone taken from the stomach of a goat and it will save you from most poisons. Monkshood and wolfsbane are the same plant which also goes by the name of actonite. Shameful, isn't it Mr. Potter?" He placed her notebook down, "well done," he muttered to Lia.
Then he looked at the class, "well? Why aren't you all copying that down?" then Professor Snape rounded back on Harry, "and a point will be taken from Gryffindor house for
There was scratching of quills being moved across paper quickly. When they were done Professor Snape began sorting people into pairs, he stopped at Lia, "you'll be paired up with Mr. Malfoy."
Lia tried not to groan, as she moved her stuff and sat next to Malfoy who's seat next to him was empty since Crabbe was paired with Goyle. Lia was doing all the work while Malfoy was talking to her.
"So I heard that you are part-veela," he said.
"Nope, I am just a witch," she said a little bored.
"Oh, well just so you know I am fine with you being a Gryffindor," he told her, sounding proud of himself actually saying that sentence.
Lia added some ingredients to the potion, "are you really?" she said sarcastically.
Draco nodded, but before he could say anything Professor Snape came around and looked at their potion.
"See class? Look at how perfect this pair here had stewed their horn slugs, can't anyone else do better?" he sneered.
Then apparently Neville had somehow managed to melt Seamus's cauldron into a twisting blob. Lia noticed this when she heard a dripping noise, she looked behind her and saw this. Lia stood on her stool and so did others because the potion was burning people's shoes, soon everyone were on their stools, but apparently Neville got some of the potion on him when the cauldron collapsed then red boils appeared on his arms and legs. Lia felt sorry for him when Professor Snape yelled at him.
"Idiot boy!" he yelled, with a wave of his wand he cleared the potion away. "I suppose you added porcupine quills before taking the cauldron off the fire?"
Neville whimpered as boils started to pop up all over his nose, Lia guessed the whimpering meant yes.
"Take him up to the hospital wing," Professor Snape spat at Seamus. Then he turned to face Harry and Ron who were working next to Seamus and Neville. "You- Potter- why didn't you tell him not to add the quills? Thought he'd make you look good if he got it wrong did you? That's another point you lost for Gryffindor."
Lia thought that Snape was being totally unfair, but she said nothing. A few days later Lia saw a notice pinned up on the notice board in the Gryffindor common-room; Lia read it and saw that flying lessons would be starting on Thursday, with the Slytherin's. Lia had a broom at home, she'd never really used it though, she'd only flown on it once or twice. Lia never really used her broom because she flew on Scorch, but Lia knew that a dragon was much more different than a broomstick. Still Lia was good at flying on a broom apparently, but she missed riding on Scorch at the moment.
When they went to the Great Hall on the Thursday morning Lia sat in between Fred and George. They had grown much closer since their first day on the train, they shared secrets, they played pranks, and they had become best friends, inseparable like Lia and Alex. Though Lia and Alex were still friends, Lia had also become great friends with Hermione, but neither of Alex or Hermione were like Fred and George. Lia had more in common with the twins than anyone else, though they were her best guy friends and Alex and Hermione were her best girl friends.
The mail came, Lia had gotten more sweets from her mother, she shared it with Fred and George, and Hermione and Alex who were sitting in front of them. Then there was a loud boom from Seamus's goblet, he'd been trying to turn his water into rum, like with yesterday he had tried to make tea, but it blew up, which this gave Lia an idea and she dripped some potion into his goblet when he wasn't looking, then it blew up. The twins high-fived her and Lia continued eating her waffles.
"Hey look, Neville's got a rememberall," Lia heard, it must have been Dean Thomas.
Lia and Hermione heard this and they both looked at Neville, "I've read about those, when the smoke turns red, it means you've forgotten something," Hermione said.
The smoke had turned red, and Neville saw this and was thinking, "the only problem is, I can't remember what I've forgotten."
Lia laughed and continued eating. Then later in the afternoon the class went down to the grounds for their flying lesson, there were many broomsticks lying on the ground. Fred and George warned her about the school broomsticks, like they would vibrate if they flew too high or move slightly to the left. Hermione kept trying to tell her everything that she read in a book, it was obvious that Hermione was nervous and had never flown a broom, but Lia listened anyways only to be polite.
Then Madam Hooch, who would be their teacher, arrived she had short gray hair and yellow eyes, that reminded Lia of Hawkeye's eyes.
"Well what are you all waiting for?" she barked impatiently. "Everyone stand by a broomstick. Come on hurry up."
Lia rushed over to a broomstick, and so did the others, then Madam Hooch continued, "stick your right hand over your broom and say "Up!""
Lia did as Madam Hooch said, she stuck out her right hand, "up!" she ordered. Her broomstick flew right up into her hand, her's was one of the few that did, and soon broomsticks were held in everyone's hand.
"Now once you've got hold of your broom I want you to mount it," she ordered. Lia mounted her broom, and paid attention to what Madam Hooch was saying. "Grip it tight, you don't want to be sliding off the end. When I blow my whistle, I want each of you to kick up from the ground hard, hover for a moment, then lean forward slightly and touch back down. On my whistle three two one."
But before the whistle touched her lips Neville jumped up nervously, "come back, boy!" Madam Hooch yelled, but Neville kept rising straight up, he must have reached twenty feet when he fell off his broom and hit the ground. Madam Hooch raced over to where Neville fell.
"Broken wrist. Come on boy- it's alright, up you get," she muttered to him. Then she turned to face the rest of the class, "None of you is to move while I take this boy to the hospital wing! You leave those brooms where they are or you'll be out of Hogwarts before you can say "Quidditch". Come on, dear."
Then when Madam Hooch and Neville left Malfoy opened his mouth, "did you see his face? Maybe if the fat lubber gave this a squeeze, maybe he'll remember to fall on his fat ass." Lia noticed he was holding Neville's rememberall. But before she could say anything Harry spoke up.
"Give it here Malfoy!" Harry ordered.
Draco turned around to face Harry, "no, I think I'll leave it somewhere for Longbottom to find." He jumped up on his broom and circled around the group, taking a wink at Lia quickly, "how 'bout on the roof?" Then he flew upwards. "What's the matter Potter? Bit beyond your reach?"
Harry was about to get on his broom but Hermione started talking to him, "Harry, no way! You heard what Madam Hooch said. Beside's you don't even know how to fly." But Harry just ignored her and flew upwards to Malfoy, Hermione looked at Lia, "what an idiot."
"Give it here Malfoy or I'll knock you off your broom!" Harry yelled, so everyone heard what he said. Lia saw Malfoy's lips moving but she couldn't hear what he was saying. Then Malfoy threw the rememberall and Harry chased after it, he caught it just before it smashed through a window. Then he flew down to the ground and the class including Lia ran towards him excited.
"Harry Potter!" A voice yelled, Lia turned and saw it was Professor McGonagall, "follow me."
Harry did as he was ordered, then she saw Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle with smirks on their faces. Lia wished she could just hit her broom and wipe that smug off their faces, but she knew better. She would prank them instead, much more entertaining.
After a few minutes Madam Hooch came back, they did what they were supposed to do before Neville crashed, Lia found this completely easy. Then she taught them to fly around, again this was easy for Lia, soon they were all in the air and flying around, then Lia saw Professor McGonagall come back. Madam Hooch waved them all to get down from the air and they all did. Though some people almost crashed into the ground.
"Right now we are going to practice with this Quidditch quaffle, come on someone take it." Madam Hooch snapped. She threw it at Ron and everyone flew in the air waiting for him to pass it to someone. After a while the ball was passed to Lia, she zoomed around and saw a statue holding two swords in an X. Lia aimed the quaffle and threw it right at the statue, the quaffle went right through the X. Some people gasped, she must have been twenty feet away from it, Lia zoomed forward and caught the quaffle, then she threw it to someone.
Then Lia raised herself from the broom, she was basically doing a hand stand on her broom. Then she sat back down on it and this time she stood on the broom and flew around slightly. This was so easy! Then Professor McGonagall yelled, "Lia get down here!"
Lia shrugged, and sat back on her broom and flew down to Professor McGonagall, "yessss?"
Professor McGonagall had a faint smile on her face, "well done. You must have a lot of experience with flying a broom.
Lia shook her head, "no I don't. I have a broom at home but I only rode once or twice."
Professor McGonagall had a shocked expression now, "and you decided to pull that stunt? Hmph well I think that the Gryffindor Quidditch team will need you to join as a chaser."
"Right now?" Lia asked, excitement bubbling up inside her.
"Yes, right now."
Lia wanted to fly around and scream for joy but she held that back, then Professor McGonagall continued speaking, "I'll sent a letter to your parents to send you your broomstick. Get Fred and George to show you the team, they're Gryffindor's beaters."
Lia smiled, and then Madam Hooch dismissed the class. Lia wondered why the twins never told her that they were on the Quidditch team! But none of that mattered because now she was a Gryffindor chaser! Nothing could make her feel down today!
Tada! Second chappie is done :) So I hope you liked it! Well anyone who has read it. Anyways no flammers please and I guess you'll have to wait for the next chapter :) Oh and don't forget.
