We arrived in front of an oddly shaped house. It had many floors all different shapes and sizes making the house look very unstable. Whoever lived here must be a wizard or this house would have toppled over already. Professor Dumbledore quickly scurried up the winding steps. He looked around cautiously like something was going to pounce at us at any moment. Luckily we made it to the door alive. As soon as we reached it a rather plump women swung open the door. I guess she was expecting us.
"Professor Dumbledore, you have arrived, come in come in,"We were lead into the living room which was as odd as the outside. The lady started a conversation with Dumbledore which gave me some time to look around. You could obviously see wizards lived here. The dishes washed themselves and a scarf was being knitted but there was nobody holding the needles. There were little trinkets here and there which didn't look very normal to me. Over all, I really liked this place!
"....Luna Olympus" I quickly turned around when I heard my name. Dumbledore was introducing me to the woman. I gave a small smile.
"Hello deary. I'm Molly Weasley, but you can call me Molly."
"I'd prefer calling you Mrs Wesley if you don't mind. Calling adults by their first names seems a bit disrespectful." I said with another small smile. Mrs Weasley looked slightly shocked and I think I saw a small twinkle if amusement on Dumbledores eyes.
"Very well. I shall be going now. Enjoy your day," Dumbledore aperated out the room. Then 4 children walked inside.
"Mum! Please tell these two nit-wits to leave me alone! How am I supposed to study for the OWLS when the only thing I can hear is explosions," said the one with the curly red hair. "Awww...Percy wercy wants to the study for big skwool."said one of the twins who made a baby face at Percy.
"Boys please! Cant you see we have a guest. Everyone this is Luna. She will be staying with us until school opens. Introduce yourselves while I prepare dinner." Mrs Wealsey walked out of the room into the kitchen. The boy with curly hair walked up to me.
"Hello I'm Percy Wesley, head prefect, top student and future minister of magic, pleased to make your acquaintance" had stuck out his hand. I shook it. " N..Nice to meet you too?"
"Percy get out the way, you're scaring her" one of the twins stepped forward. "Allow me to take your bags I guess you will be sleeping in Ginny's room, by the way I'm Fred and this slightly less handsome guy over here is George." said Fred who gave one bag to George.
"Fred we're identicle twins. We look the same!" Both twins then walked upstairs bickering about who was better looking. "Hello I'm Ginny, how old are you?"
"Nice to meet you. I'm 11 years old." I said.
"Your in the same year as my brother, He's out shopping with my dad. I'll introduce you two later. Come on I'll show you our room" said Ginny as we walked up the stairs.
Ginny's room looked like any normal 10 year old's would. There were little toys laying around, mostly dolls and a book shelf against the walls. The room was decorated in lots of red and gold like most of the house.
I sat down on one of the chairs. "So why is there so much red and gold?" I asked.
"Oh red and gold are the colours of one of the houses in Hogwarts, Griffendor. There are three more houses in Hogwarts. Hufflepuff, for the kind and loyal. Ravenclaw, for the smart and witty. Slytherin for the sly and cunning. Griffendor is for the brave, everyone in this family have been put into Griffendor. That's all I know about Hogwarts since I'm only going next year."
"Wow that's so cool! I wonder what house I'll be put in. I'm not really brave. I can be quite mean sometimes but not so much that people call me evil. I'm not that smart either. I am quite good at pranks though..." I thought out loud.
"Then you'll get along well with Fred and George! Wanna go see what they're up to. They're always inventing some kind of prank or planning another prank for Percy." we both got up and headed to the boys' room which happen to be on the other side of the hall. We could already hear the explosions going off outside of their door, before we walked in.
"Look who's come to visit. Welcome to the cave of mysteries." said one (I can't really tell them apart)
"Ohhh looks very mysterious and what do you do in this 'cave of mysteries'?" I asked.
"We are so glad you asked-
"in this 'cave of mysteries' we-
"invent new ways to make the-
"world of trickery a-
"better place" said the twins at the same time. They really remind me of Connor and Travis Stoll. Except Travis is older then Connor...or is Connor older. I will never know.
"Right now we are working on a rather complicated prank, we call them 'Puking Pastilles'." said one. While they directed us to a table.
"Yes. Eat one of these and you'll puke in 5 minutes, giving you a great excuse to skip class-"
"-or prank someone by making them eat it"
"But we have run into a problem-
"-see we can never balance the amount of elf snot and slug slime-"
"Too much elf snot will make the person shrink up to 3 inches-
"-and too much slug slime can make the person explode with slime."
"Well then maybe you should focus more on your studies than mess around with this all day," said Ginny.
"Oh look its 6:30. Time for dinner," said the twins as they quickly dashed off. Ginny and I followed after them. When we arrived in the kitchen Mrs Wesley had almost finished her soup. Ginny took the seat next to Percy and I sat next to her, with an empty seat next to me. The twins sat across from us. We had just started eating when a middle aged man walked in followed by another boy with red hair.
"Evening Weasley's and who might you be?" said the man.
"Hello, I'm Luna Olympus. I'll be staying here until school starts," I said.
"Oh great to have a guest in the borrow, I'm Arthur Weasley." he said while sitting down. The other boy sat next to me. "Hello I'm Ron, what year are you in?" asked the boy.
"I'll be starting my first year"
"Oh. Me too. I can't wait to get there! I here there is a huge feast to welcome the new students." said Ron with a far away look.
"Yes and then afterwards they lure the kids into a room-
-and chop them up into little bits to serve for dessert!!" said Fred and George.
"Enough boys! Luna I'm sure you're tired dear. Get yourself to bed now," ordered Mrs Weasley. I excused myself and went to Ginny's room. Her things were on the top so I'd be sleeping on the bottom. I got ready for bed, thinking about Hogwarts.
Ron and Ginny are in a wizarding family, which means they have a bit of experience. I don't know anything. Will I be good enough to be a witch?
