Chapter 22

New Days and New Adventures

Summer soon passed. My Grandparents, my parents, and I went on our customary summer trip. This year my family and I wound up exploring the ancient ruins of the Mayan's of the Yucatan Peninsula.

Chichen-Itza, the main ruins I got to study on the trip, was the most interesting to me. Of course, there were a lot of muggle tourists, but I explored at night when no one else was around. The pyramid was once used for astronomical events, I did the same, after casting a spell to prevent muggles from trying to find out exactly what I was going doing there at that time of night.

Unfortunatly, I can't read the writings on the walls. The muggles who thought they had, spoke of the sacrifices done by the people who once lived here. It seems that they were quite blood thirsty, including the magic users at the time.

My favorite part of the ruins was the game field. The game reminded me sort of like the muggle basket ball and a little of the muggle soccer. But, the outcome of this game was a bit more harsh than the outcome of the muggle games, the losers of this game were sacraficed by the Shamans (magic users). I guess the fact that I kinda like the idea makes me a little blood thirsty too, my dark side shining through.

One night, gazing a the stars I thought of a new prank to play with George and Fred, it involved casting all of the student's school books into unreadable picture languages, other wise known as hieroglphics, well in Egypt anyways. How I came up with that one I am not to sure, but it will be fun if we can do it, it will also through the teachers off for a bit.

Like most summers, this one passed quickly after my trip. And soon I was back on the Hogwarts Express with the rest of the student population. I was discussing my thoughts on the prank I came up with over the summer with Fred and George, when Hermione came into out compartment.

"Adonia, have you happened to have seen Harry or Ron?" I could tell she was worried, I mean she would have to be, to talk to me. I know I became loose friends with the three last year, but not the best.

"No, I haven't seen them yet. When was the last time you saw them?"

"When we met in Diagon Ally, I have not seen themon train, and it is getting late, we are almost to the school."

"I'm sure they will turn up Hermione. Would you like to sit in here with us?" I gestured to the Twins and myself. With a sigh, Hermione accepted and took a seat. Our conversation turned more innocent things, pranks weren't in Hermione's best intrest.

Soon we arrived at the school station. I went to the carts and found one being pulled by my friends.

"George, Fred, this one."

"Why this one Kitty Cat?"

"Because Mortis and his girls are pulling it."

The twins were schocked at this, their faces were priceless. They quickly got into the cart, while I told my stalian a brief hello, and that I would vist him and his heard later. I then hopped into the cart and we took off towards the castle.

It wasn't until after the feast when we all returned to the Gryffindor common room that we found out what happened to Harry and Ron. They couldn't get through the portal at the station, so they stole Ron's father's car and flew here. I wish I would have thought up something like that.

Their mode of arrival was the most exciting event for a while. For some reason, most of the girls were excited about our new Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor, I did not like him, I never like guys who are to full of themselves. Though, I do have to admit that our first Herbology class was fun, we were playing with Mandrakes. Poor Neville passed out, on the first day of class, how sad.

Other than that, oh and the pixies, the semester was quite uneventful. At least until Halloween, it was that day that I knew this year would be eventful.
