That night I had a dream that everyone made fun if my hair. A boy with glasses and a scar came up to protect me the same time another tried to protect me. I couldn't see his face because Luna woke me up before I could.
"Lyla! Wake up! I made eggs for you." She hands me a plate of eggs and toast.
"Thank you Luna."
"Of course." She gets up to leave but I stop her.
"Luna? I think I had a vision." She comes and sits down. "I was at Hogwarts and people were making fun of me. They called me stupid and weird. A boy with glasses came to protect me as well as another boy. But I didn't see the other boy. Do you think that it will happen?" She looks at me. "If it does happen, then just know that someone will be there to protect you. Okay?" I nod. "Good. Now get ready! I want to do your hair today!" I roll my eyes.
I finish my breakfast and get into my clothes. I put on a blue shirt with a light purple lightning bolt and blue jeans. I put my robes in a trunk and head downstairs. Luna makes me sit down and she does my hair. "Perfect!" She exclaims. I look in the mirror and see what she did. It was simple. She put my long blue hair in a half ponytail and left out some bangs to curl. "I love it Luna! Thanks!" She smiles and hugs me. "We should leave soon. The train will be leaving. Go say bye to uncle. He has retired so we will not be seeing him as much." I say goodbye and head out the door.
We arrive at the platform just in time. We see a family of red-heads coming. "That's the Weasly's. the oldest is Pery, the twins are Fred and George, then Ronald, then Jenny. It's Jenny's first year as well." They run through the brick wall of platforms nine and ten. Nothing new to me. I used to always do it because I had a part time job there. At Hogwarts. We run through the wall and hop on the train. This entire time I'm silent. Luna is talking her head off about Harry Potter and Voldemort. I was not scared if him. I see him as just another wizard gone bad. To everyone else he was the devil! I see him for what he is. A human being, once a student of Hogwarts!
The train begins and we are off to Hogwarts.
Two boys with silk like hair come to us. "Do you mind if we sit?" The older one asked.
"Not at all! Come on in Draco. Who's this?"
"I'm Pierce!" Said the younger one. He looks much like his brother with silkl white hair, but instead of hard brown eyes, he had more soft green eyes. Draco sits next to Luna and Pierce sits next to me.
"Is this your little sister Luna?"
"Yes." She replies.
"My name is Lyla. Lyla Lovegood." Draco extends out a hand.
"What a beautiful name for a beautiful girl." I blush. Luna hits Draco.
"Your making her uncomfortable. Don't flirt with her! She's a year younger than you!" Luna says.
"I'm not flirting with her! She is beautiful! But in the friendly way! Luna, I don't like her like that!" Luna smiles. The train goes smoothly and Draco talks to Luna. Pierce and I stay quiet. Three people come to the door. A red haired girl opens the door to introduce herself but stops when she sees Draco.
"What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" Draco teased.
"No! I just thought that you- ugh! Never mind that! I'm Hermione Granger! This is Ronald Weasly and Harry Potter. Pierce stares in amazement but I look away.
"Lyla! Don't be rude! Say hello." Luna bugs me.
"Fine. Hello Harry, Hermione, and Ronald. I'm Lyla. Luna's little sister." Harry smiles and shakes my hand.
"Nice to meet you my beautiful lady."
Ron mumbles to Harry, "I don't think she likes you. She barley even looked." I look at him. "I'm not deaf. I heard that. I've seen him before." I say. Luna nudges me and I turn my head. "What?" She shakes her head and shushes me. "She means that she already knew that Harry went here. I told her." The three leave and Luna talks to me. "No one can know besides us." Draco gives us a weird look. "Know what?"
"Lyla is a Visioner. You won't tell anyone right?"
"Not a soul!" Draco says. The ride seems to be going on forever until we reach our destination. We get our luggage and walk off the train. Luna Draco and Pierce are all talking to each other so I sink back and start thinking if my spells I've been practicing. An enormous man comes up to us.
"Hello there. Welcome to Hogwarts! I see we have many first years, good luck!" He says with a booming voice. "Oh, I forgot to introduce myself! I am Haggrid! Nice to meet you all but we must get goin'." We follow this beast to the boats. When the school is in my eyesight I look at it. I forgot how amazing it looked. Draco puts a hand on mine and Pierces shoulder.
"Looks incredible doesn't it? Just think! You'll be going here for a while." I smile and think of everything that could happen. We come to the shore and get off the boats. While we were walking someone pushed me down and laughed walking off. Pierce and Draco come to help me off the ground.
"Thanks guys. Where's Luna?" I asked.
"She's in the building right now waiting for us." I nod my head and we walk inside. Draco goes to the Slytherin Table and I follow Pierce to the front of the room. The sorting hat is placed on a stool with Professer Mcgonagle. She introduces herself and I'm only half listening. I'm more intrigued by what table I'll be going to. She starts calling names. On a random order of course!
"Pierce Malfoy!" Pierce let's go of my hand that I didn't even notice I grabbed. She placed the hat on his head.
"Hmmmm....Draco's little brother eh? Well, not Gryffindor." Draco smiles. "You're to smart for Hufflepuff, hmm tricky." Draco shouts, "Just put him in Slytherin already!!" "Hush! He does not have an evil mind! RAVENCLAW!!!" The hat shouts. Pierce looks at Draco nervously and slumps to the Ravenclaw table who just finished clapping and yelling.
"Jenny Weasly!" A girl with straight red hair goes up and the hat doesn't have second thoughts. "GRYFFINDOR!!" She smiles and runs over to the table with- HARRY POTTER?! Why am I surprised? It was either that or Slytherin...
"Lyla Lovegood!" I walk up and everyone states at me.
"Oh! Oh, interesting..... You are not the average wizard, do you mind if I say?"
"Please don't."
"Very well miss. Not Slytherin! You don't have the mind set..... Again to smart for Hufflepuff. Gryffindor might be a good choice. Wait- Maybe not. Your sister- She knows the maker of Ravenclaws ghost... Lets go with, RAVENCLAW!!!" The hat shouts. Pierce looks relieved. I walk over and sit next to him, longing for my sister. Names go by and I perk up by the end. "Pine Grove!" A tall girl with long blonde hair and gray eyes confidently walks up and sits down.
"You'd be good for Ravenclaw. Hmmm, GRYFFINDOR!!" She smiles and walks over there. A tan boys with blue eyes and short brown hair looks after her. "Riley Mitch!" The boys goes up. "GRYFFINDOR!!!" The hat yells. He rushes over and sits next to Pine, who blushes.
"Okay, Prefects! Lead our table to their dorms and explain everything! We will see you all tomorrow! Good night!" Mcgonagle sits down and our table stands. Our Prefect stands up. "Okay, follow me! Don't get lost!" We leave to go upstairs where our rooms are. He says something I do not understand and we are in our rooms. I am surrounded by royal carpets and purple curtains. "Girls are to the right! Boys the left! Your curfew is 9:00. No one is allowed out after! My name is Casey and I will be your guide if you need anything!" Everyone goes out to explore the castle. I goto the library and a group of people look at me.
"Look! It's the blueberry!" An older boy shouts. The others laugh so I ignore them and go to a desk. They follow me and continue to make fun of me.
"Why is her hair blue?"
"She's so ugly!"
"Ravenclaws for LOSERS!!" I start to tear up bit I hold them back.
"What's the matter? Are you deaf!" Someone shouts. I turn to see the boys who pushed me down. "Your even ugly up close!" I push him out of the way holding in my temper. "Baby!" It's my vision all over again. I drop my books and fall down holding my head. I see the same boy. With he glasses and scar. He comes and try's to help me up, but the other one is here to. I turn and see Pierce. I look at the glasses and realize that he's Harry Potter. A boy is behind him.
"Just leave the bloody girl alone! Bloody-hell." He says. Harry and Pierce help me up.
"Thanks guys." Pierce pulls me with him.
"We need to find Luna." Harry grabs me.
"I know where she is. I'll help you Lyla."
"You can't! You don't know what's happened!" Pierce fights.
"Sure I do! These jerks were picking on her!" Harry says.
"It's more than that Potter!" Draco comes up. "Something's wrong. She needs her sister." He looks at me. "Did it happen?" I nod my head. "Just like my-" I whisper, "my vision." Draco's eyes widen. "We need to find Luna!" Harry lets go and I hear him say, "what is up with her? She doesn't like anyone but Draco! No one likes Draco!" Pierce brings me up to Draco and he grabs my hand while running. Pictures begin flashing through my head. I fall down again and Draco rushes to me. I can't hear him. I can't hear anything but a scream. A girl. A girl is all I see. She's being dragged away by a dragon. Then I realize, that girl is me! Pierce and Draco are in the vision too. Pierce is running after me and Draco is trying to cast a spell with Luna. My vision ends...
