A Hogwarts Story

Read title.
I'm so bored, and I need to write.

That was true at the time, but I've got a good story idea in my head now. With some interesting characters...

Half of them don't know what to make of me.
I was a mistake.
No one knew of my existance. Especially not my Uncle Albus (no relation to Al Potter).
I'm Arianna Dumbledore's daughter. She had me when she was eighteen.
And then I was alone; deserted.
Until I got a letter...
~*~*~
It's time for me to tell my story.
So sit back, relax, take a cuppa tea.
Because my life? Is it simple? Uh, no. And it'll take a few pages to explain.

Stupid Muggles.
The whisper follows me...
Filthy blood.
I cannot stop it...
Dirty scum.
What has come of the Wizarding world?
Are these the whispers that are supposed to follow a young, future Hogwarts student?
I know all there is to know about EVERYTHING in the wizarding world, so why do I get treated so badly? I'll be at the train station in a little while; they can't follow me too far.
Indigo.
Indigo.
Indigo.
Do you wonder of yourself like I do much? Do you even care as to know?
No? Well, I do.
And you're going to have to listen.

Whoa. I shall definitely be reading! This is ... amazing!

~blushes~
Thank you!

ZAP! Pink curls!
ZOOP! Teal braids!
ZIP! Black spikes!
But are any of them really me?
Am I ever truly me?
A Metamorphagus, yes. Sister of Teddy Lupin, defanitly. Best friend of Lucy Weasley, of course.
But Byrd Tonks Lupin? I'm not so sure.
But then again- how can you EVER be sure of who you are, since you always look like you?
Confused? Me too.

Have you ever been trying to sleep but you just can't? Like, your body rests but your heart and mind race?
Not heart-racing like kissing a guy (hopefully James...)
Not mind-racing like complicated math (6[8-6x67]-3)
More like... drama related.

These are thoughts that float through my head the night before I go to Hogwarts. Teddy says it's great.
Teddy's a prankster.
Lucy's coming, too. But she's a definite Gryffindor. Me? My dad was Gryffindor, but my Mum was Hufflepuff.

I don't sleep that night.

"Matt, you HOG!" I shrieked as my brother snatched my book from my hands. My comment was more like a joke to him today: we were going to Hogwarts! Matt for his second year, me for my first.
He laughed as he dangled it over a puddle of mud. "Don't you dare, Matthew!" Mum snapped. Matt laughed again and tossed the book back at me.
"You've got a girlfriend." I stated suddenly. I hadn't known what it was before: the twinkling eyes, the wide laughs, and the idiocy. Well, he's an idiot anyway.
"So what if I do?" He said evenly, throwing his robes on. "You didn't tell me. Oooh, it's that Flinch-Fletchey girl you were talking to, isn't it!" I gasped. He shook his head. "Carter? No way. She's cute and friendly though. And we hang out. But not like THAT." I sighed, "Who, then? That Thomas girl?"
Bull's eye.
He blushed!
HE LIKED HER!
"Yeah, well what do I care if you know anyway, Fanny? Some damage you'll do, git." He mumbled. Mum gave him a sharp look.
He had a girlfriend. He's twelve.
I'm eleven.
~*~*~
In looks, I'm just like my brother. The rich chocolate eyes, freckles, tallness, and brown hair. I kept mine cut to my shoulders while Dominique let hers flow. But then again, she is a Veela, and I don't want to look like an attention seeker by copying her.
But to get HIS attention? Maybe...

"Oh, just sit HERE, Katerina." Leia sighed, rolling her eyes.
Leia Bones, I think. Third year, perhaps?
I nodded my thanks. I don't talk much, see. I'm an elective mute; not born with it. I just don't like talking.
I had no friends.
I never would.
I'm pretty scary looking, actually. My mocha skin was pretty, sure. But my hair?
Yikes.
It was in what the Muggle stylist called a 'pixie cut'. And I had dyed it electric blue. My dad, Lee Jordan, had instantly approved. My mum, Parvati Patil? Not so much.
My eyes have been described as 'bottomless black pits' because they are black, and once you find yourself looking into them, it is hard to get back out.
Leia was pretty. Or tried to be.
I guess the whole elective mute thing is weird, too. But I've had incidents with talking, and I'm not going back down that road of misery.
"Um. Can I sit here?"
I looked up. Leia was engrossed in her 'Witch Wonder' magazine, so she didn't.
It was Lily Potter. I nodded. She sat down next to me, looking shy.
"I'm Lily. Lily Potter. Who are you two?" She asked.
Leia mumbled "Bones, Leia" from her article. I, however, pointed to the name sewn on my bag.
"Katerina-" -I shook my head- "-Oh, I mean Kat. Kat Jordan? My uncle knows your father!" Lily exclaimed, like this was 'oh so great and why doesn't everyone just be friends forever?'
I twitched the corners of my mouth.
She understood me.
Well, that's a first.

W o w.

My first ride to Hogwarts, like I always expected it to be.
Exhilarating at the start.
At least until nobody sits by me. Then it's more of a, how-did-I-get-myslef-into-this situation. And it's true.
How DID I get myself into this?
Just a second ago I had been laughing with Molly and Roxi. Molly and Roxanne were sitting in a compartment. With my brothers.
Urg.
I would take the deserted compartment, thanks.
"I'll be sitting here, if you don't mind."
I started and peered up at the speaker. She had long, frizzy black hair and piercing blue eyes. It felt like I had seen her...
"Sure," I said, "if you tell me your name." She rolled her eyes. "Anna-Lynn Dumbledore. No joke. Call my Lynn, okay? Anna reminds me of... my mother." She finished in a soft tone, playing with a string on her robes.
I was about to reply, but the door slid open once more. Dillon Macmillan, Fanny and Matt Spinnet-Creevey, and Vlad Finnigan stood in the doorway.
I blushed. Vlad!
No big deal, really. But he's... he's cute, alright? As a rule, I don't like guys.
But everyone breaks rules...

* headshake *

I plopped down by Rose and pulled out my Muggle book, bout some stories by a guy named Shakespeare. It had complicated English in it, mind you. Fanny sat across from me, Dillon next to her, and Matt on Fanny's other side. Vlad sat next to me. Rose gave me an odd glance before chatting with Fanny.
"So, Lynn..." Vlad began, clearing his throat, "what house are you in?"
"Gryffindor. My uncles both were." I mumbled, glancing up. I didn't want to talk about Arianna. No.
"Oh! So you're in Micah and Matt's house... and James and Al's-" Vlad began to recite, when Rose piped up, "And probably mine. If I'm not in Gryffindor, well..." But her voice trailed off.
Trust me; I hated not having any mum and not knowing my dad...
But sometimes I felt free.

I'm not even going to start off saying I sat by myself, because I didn't. I was nerly shoved into a compartment with some other wizards and witches.
I sat down by a girl. Her skin was porclain white, but she had raven dark hair. "I'm Indigo. Indigo Winters. It's my first year here; what about you?" I asked around the room.
The pale girl turned towards me and for the first time, I realized her eyes were shockingly grey.
"I'm Twila McLaggen. Cho Chang is my mother, I bet you can tell." She said, gesturing to her face. "Well, people tell me that, but I wouldn't really know. I can't see. I'm blind."
My eyes widened a little but I smiled, "Oh. Well, that's okay. You can still do stuff."
I turned to the rest of the people. I recognized Jamed Potter and Teddy Lupin. Teddy was in his last, James in his third year, I think. There were two other girls. One had purple hair with pink ends, and wore a scowl. "Byrd Lupin." She snapped, seeing my gaze on her hair. I blushed and turned to the next girl.
She had mocha hair, and tan skin. Her eyes were wide and green, and freckles splattered across her nose and under her eyes.
"I'm Sonny Wood. Don't laugh! My dad is Oliver Wood, so I'm obsessive over Quidditch." She made a face and I giggled. "Yeah. But my Mum is Katie Bell. She works for the Ministry, top secret, I think."
I nodded. That sounded cool. So... I'm the only Muggle-born in here?
As though reading my mind, Twila said, "You know, Hermione Weasley is a genius, but she's Muggle-born."
I nodded.
But I'm NOT a genius!

haha! I is copier!!! Here's Byrd:
