SONA'S POV :

"Hey Harry" I called out behind him as he ran for the Great Hall. He turned briefly humming, surely not in the mood to talk. I walked beside him quietly. As we reached the Great Hall, we went to our respective tables, my back facing his. I though Harry didn't want a conversation but then I felt him lean on my back. Yeah, He's tired. I get it. But I don't wanna interfere in his misery. That part is for Luna. This will strengthen their bond. 

"Wanna sleep?" I managed to whisper as not to catch any attention though the hall was somewhat empty. "hmm, no. I'm good." I can't help the scoff." No your not. Its okay, if sometimes your not okay. Everyone has bad days. Girls even have bad-hair days." He chuckled lightly at this. "I don't know what I'm feeling." I knew he wanted to say that no one understands him." I thought you already spent a lot of years being misunderstood, didn't you? These small period of dilemma would fade soon." He sighed. Harry in the mean time has started eating. "Don't worry, Harry. Your parent's love protected you that night and you will have to go through all these pains so that their sacrifice doesn't go in vain." I turned and smiled at him, ruffling his hair in the mean time. Now, I saw a relieved smile on his face. "Thank You." 

"Uhmm, Harry.  I happened to cross Hagrid's hut today, and you know what I got this." I had to be extra careful so that Sparkle isn't seen by anyone else. Harry looked at it and started caressing its head. It started making faint satisfied sounds. "I think -" Harry was looking at it intently," I don't really remember, but it seems quite familiar." "Is it related to Buckbeak or something?" Harry kept on staring for some more time before he jerks his head up." How do you know about Buckbeak?" He shouted, with his voice rising a bit high. Shit! "Uhmm, well, uh- R-Ron told me." I wasn't sure myself. Harry however, calmed down "Sorry" "Nah its alright. I'll scream back at you when I get the chance." He smiled lightly. "Do you know what happened to Pratik? I haven't seen him since morning." He nodded." He was feeling a bit sick in the morning." There. I knew he would be missing home. I jumped up, grabbing Sparkle and my bag.

"Okay, bye Little Prongs. See you later." With one look at his open mouth, I left the Great Hall. Pratik loves nature. If he is sad, he would probably be -

As I came near to the Black Lake I found a person sitting right at the edge of the lake with his feet dipped in the water. Hey, copy-cat, that's my favorite form of relaxation. I went and sat beside him quietly. He was munching on a packet of LAYS. Oh yes! I had put all the food item in his bag." Oi, chagol tui ekai kheye nibi?(Mr. goat will you eat all this alone?)" I jokingly glared at him. He smirked handing me the packet." I've been waiting for you all morning. The principal asked us to meet him. Didn't you get the letter?" Dumbledore wanted to meet? Letter? What- "Oh yeah, I did saw something in the morning" and started rummaging in the backpack. Sparkle had jumped out of my pocket by now,  giving Pratik a mini-heart attack. "You- You got a pet? How?" I found the letter and started opening it. "Oh, I found it in the forest. You want one?" I started feasting on the remaining chips.  "Nope, I'm good.". I tore open the old yellowish envelop.

Dear Sonakshi,

You have been accepted in this school year, till we get further news.  I would like to hold a conversation with yourself and Mr. Mark about certain important matters. However, this can wait, since you need time to make yourselves comfortable in this new environment. I would, also want you to remember, not to intervene in any matter, otherwise deemed necessary. There can be graver concepts than that meets the eye. I would appreciate if you take the help of Professor Snape to sort out the issues as I might not be available for long. Your books and other needs would be looked after by the school, under the school funds for the financially unstable students. Lastly, I believe in you. You will be able to fulfill all the duties imposed on you and even more.

Yours,

Albie

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

The letter was short but the thing that made me smile was his signature. He used the nickname given by me. I looked up at Pratik, he has started playing with Sparkle. "Are you okay?" He hummed. It was slight as a whisper. "I wouldn't say everything would be alright, but we can surely overcome everything together." I showed him my fist, like in the movies, they show fighting. "But don't you think this is cruel?  How could we survive that alien-guy without magic? That blond teacher was telling me someone must have sent us here. Without any intervention we wouldn't have landed out of no where."  "That's your House Head, Professor McGonagall." I couldn't refrain from chuckling." Yeah, I know." I sat like that for some more time.

"So, you wanna go see Dumbledore?"He gave me a weird look. I smiled sheepishly at him. "Yeah, but before that you need to get used to them. They do feel a bit different at first but I'm sure, you will love them with time." To be truthful, even I didn't know how to react to find the characters of my favorite book real, walking and talking like us. Did J.K. Rowling know about this? Wait. Was she a witch too? That wouldn't be too much of an exaggeration. 

So, we went on our mission to see Dumbledore again. Reaching the gargoyle in the seventh floor wasn't a tough task.But what was actually the headache was to get past of some Ravenclaw girls who have already started fangirling over my little cousin. Pratik whom I usually refer to as a friend is actually my cousin. Though he's super tall and handsome to some fault, I don't know why I can only think of him as a huge cute Labrador with its very long tongue. Yeah, I really don't get it why someone fall for a pup like him? 

Wanna see him----
