Fairy Tail Goes to Hogwarts

Chapter 15

Ron shovelled food into his mouth so fast he was even giving Natsu a run for his money. Wendy and Levy had joined the Gryffindor table after receiving their time tables and they were talking to Lucy and Erza in soft whispers of Japanese.

"The way everyone talks about Harry-san is horrid." Wendy whispered

"Same in my house, the Prophet has been spreading such horrible rumours." Levy muttered looking up from her copy of the Daily Prophet "My common room has a stack of old copies in the corner, I've read every copy from the last three months and I've started on the more recent ones and everything just gets worse." She sighed, pulling her gale-force reading glasses from her nose and placing them on the table before helping herself to some of the bacon. "They aren't the nicest about Dumbledore either..." She added.

"The boys in our house aren't holding back their comments much, one was having a go at Harry in his room last night." Erza noted.

"It's horrible, they try and warn everyone and potentially save lives and this is their thanks." Lucy sighed, leaning her elbow on the table and her chin on her hand.

"Harry!" Came a loud call from across the hall. Everyone looked around to see a tall girl with long braided hair marching up to Harry.

"Hi Angelina." Harry greeted.

"Hi," She rushed the words, acting like she was in a hurry "good summer?" She asked before continuing before an answer could be given "Listen, since Wood left I've been made Gryffindor Quidditch Captain."

"Nice one." Harry smiled.

"Yeah well, since he left we're down one keeper. I'm holding try-outs are on Friday, 5 o'clock. The whole team has to be there to see how the new person will fit in." She said it in a way that suggested that there was no say in it.

"Yeah, ok." Harry nodded.

Angelina smiled at him before hurrying off, probably to find the rest of the team.

"It'll be good to have someone new in." Ron stated.

"Maybe," Harry mused "but Wood was a good keeper."

Before any more could be said on the matter the hall became full of owls, all of which were dripping with water, indicating that it was raining.

Two large barn owls came swooping down towards the group and Levy and Hermione instinctively cleared places for them. Each was carrying a sodden copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Why are you two getting those?" Harry asked, clearly irritated "It's a load of rubbish!"

"It's best to keep an eye on things." Levy and Hermione stated at once. They glanced at each other, smiling, before Levy put on her gale-force reading glasses and both of them began reading.

Levy was finished reading the entire thing within a matter of minutes and she rolled the paper up and announced that there was nothing in there about Harry or Dumbledore.

"How did you read all that so fast?" Hermione asked, placing her own paper on the table and looking at Levy suspiciously.

Levy pulled off her glasses "Gale-force reading glasses." She folded the arms in before sliding them into her robe pocket.

Hermione raised an eyebrow.

Lucy pulled out her own pair of glasses and handed them to her "Here, you can give mine a try." She stated.

Hermione looked sceptical, but she placed the glasses on her nose and picked up her paper again. In several minuets she placed the paper down again and took the glasses off, staring at them in wonder.
