~Mr Reed's house, England~
4pm
Everyone was seated around a fireplace. Some were on chairs, others were on sofas and some were on cushions on the floor. David Simmons was sitting in a corner alone trying to get away from the rest of the group. Grace and Syusuke were still avoiding each other and sitting as far away from each other as possible.
Dumbledore started to speak "I hope that all of you have considered coming to Hogwarts. If you have any enquiries please ask now."
"Well for the seven of us, our parents have agreed. If we were to go to Hogwarts, we would be in the sixth year correct? I was wondering. Wouldn't we be way behind in our studies?" asked Grace.
"Well, you would come here to study magic under me for about 2 and a half months before you go to Hogwarts." said Mr Reed.
"When would we leave?" asked Laura.
"In about a week's time though you would have transfer out of your school. But we will take care of that." said Dumbledore.
"Who are you people?" asked Kunimitsu.
"Well as some of you know, I am Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts. I am a wizard. This here is Mr Clow Reed, he teaches Defence Against the Dark Arts (DADA) at Hogwarts and is a sorcerer." said Dumbledore.
"What's the difference between a wizard and a sorcerer?" asked Erin.
"Well a sorcerer is much stronger than a wizard. A wizard must have a wand to do magic spells but a sorcerer does not need one. Also sorcerers are very rare these days as most are extinct however we have one or two amidst us here." said Dumbledore. A few curious looks were shot at him while others just ignored what he said.
"How do we use wands and where do we get them? You said wizards used wands or stuff like that." asked Matt.
"Well we do use wands but some of you already have your own wands or to be more exact staffs." replied Mr Reed.
"Staffs?" asked most shocked.
"Well now they are actually necklaces. Did some pendants appear in front of you one day?" said Mr Reed.
Only Grace, Jewel, Laura, Lene, Sk, Carol, David and Syusuke nodded. Then they all took off the necklaces from around their necks.
Grace had one with a yellow star which had white wings at the side. Jewel had one with a white cloud. Laura had one with a silver ring. Lene's had a reddish orange flame. Sk had one with blue waves. Carol had one with an oak tree on it. David's one had a yellow lightning bolt. Lastly, Syusuke's had a sort of ying and yang symbol.
"I will teach you how to use them and if the rest of you are wondering, you will get your pendants later when your powers have developed more. Also I will teach you how to change your staffs into wands." said Mr Reed.
"I would like a reply on whether you would be joining us so we will be sending an owl to your house tonight. Please write your reply and tie it to its leg. If your parents do not allow you to go and you would like to go, please tell us and we will help you to negotiate something." said Dumbledore with a seriousness in his voice.
They all nodded." Anymore questions?" Dumbledore asked. They all shook their heads.
"I guess its time to take you home then." said Mr Reed.
Dumbledore took out an old shoe, a worn out football and an old book. The Japanese kids touched the shoe and disappeared and so had the American kids with the football. Grace and company were about to leave but Mr Reed stopped them.
"Grace I would like you to keep this book and I hope you will read it" said Mr Reed.
"Thank you" Grace said with a smile while she slowly disappeared.
