"Love, Hope please stay inside and don't move." said Grace.
"But Grace, its hard to breathe and its so hot." said Love. Hope felt the same but did not want to complain.
"Ok, wait. Now I will stick you out of the pocket but don't move. Not even an inch and act like a soft toy." said Grace. "Here we are my school. First I have to go to the office. I will show you my friends later."
"Hey Grace. Come on we got to go now." said Carol.
"I'm coming. Wait." said Grace as they all ran towards the office.
Once they reached, they asked the receptionist if they could see the principal. After a few minutes, they were let into the principal's office. She was holding onto a letter with the Hogwarts seal.
"Good Morning girls. I assume that you are the 7 students who will be transferring to Hogwarts?" said the principal, Mrs Lee.
"Good Morning Mrs Lee." They said all together.
"Yes, we are." said Teri.
"I just got this letter with all the papers I need. I presume that the Headmaster of Hogwarts sent this." said Mrs Lee.
"Yes he did Mdm. Why, is there any problem?" asked Jewel.
"Oh no. Nothing is wrong, Albus would not make any mistakes with this kind of things. It's just that it is sad to see you go. However, its makes me happy that you have been entered in the finest school of witchcraft and wizardry." said Mrs Lee.
"Excuse me Mrs Lee but do you know Professor Dumbledore?" said Lene.
"Yes but it was a long time ago. I actually use to go there myself when I was younger." she gave a sigh and the all the girls jaws dropped. "With that settled, I think you better head on back to class." said Mrs Lee.
"Thank you. Please excuse us." said Sk. With that they left. On the way out, she saw Love and Hope on Grace's backpack. They both gave her a small wave and she waved back. 'Looks like Reed is there and the new card mistress has been chosen.' she thought to herself.
They ran to class and had just made it in time. The teacher soon walked in.
"Class, I have some sad news." The class listened attentively except for a group of 7 who knew what was going to be said. "Cherylene, Grace, Laura, Jewel, Siok Hoon, Teri and Carol are transferring to a school in England. Friday will be their last day here so I want to have a party that day. Therefore all of the classes after recess that day will be cancelled. Therefore, please bring some food." The whole class was quiet. They were happy that classes were cancelled and they could have a party but they were sad that their friends were leaving. Many pairs of eyes were cast on the students who were leaving.
"I feel so uncomfortable. I feel like an outcast." said Grace whispering to Laura. However, the stares were not of anger but of sadness.
During recess, Grace brought her friends to a secluded area of the school.
"What are you so excited about?" said Laura.
"Come on. I have something to show you." they all sat down as Grace took out the book, Love, Hope and her necklace.
"That's so cute where did you get it from?" asked Carol while picking up Hope.
"Why is it everyone says Hope is cute but not me." said Love with a pout.
"Ahh! The soft toy can talk" said Laura. The rest were all shocked too.
"It can fly too." said Grace.
"Where are the batteries?" asked Carol. Everyone ignored her.
"What the hell are they?" asked Laura.
"Well they are my guardians." said Grace. Then Grace told them all about the book, cards, staff and what happened last night. When she finished talking, Grace looked around to make sure no one was around. "Love, Hope you can change now." They did as they were told and changed to their true forms. There were a few 'wows' and 'cool'.
"Grace I forgot to tell you that I can change into a different form." said Hope.
"All right, then change." said Grace. Hope changed. His wings revealed a boy of eighteen with short silver hair and he wore a pair of glasses. His wings had also disappeared.
"Great. Hope is always the special one. This is so unfair." said Love with another pout.
"OMG! He is so cute. Will you be my boyfriend?" asked Teri cheekily.
"Hey! He's mine. You can't have him." said Grace. They created a commotion and soon some other girls were attracted to the scene and were also fighting over Hope. Luckily Love had changed back into her soft toy form. Hope was blushing like mad now.
"Stop this now and return to your class." The voice belonged to none other than Mrs Lee. Everyone started moving except the 7 students. Soon the rest of the students left.
"Thank you Mrs Lee." said Hope.
"You're welcome Hope. Its best if you change back now." So he changed back to his doll form.
"Please be careful next time. You may risk exposing magic." said Mrs Lee.
"We are sorry." said both Grace and Teri at the same time. Then suddenly they started laughing like two crazy lunatics. After that they all walked back to class.
The rest of the days were spent writing autograph books to remember each other by. Then the party on Friday was spent eating, watching a movie and playing games.
~Japan~
"Class! Both Fuji-san and Tezuka-san will be leaving for England on Friday so I hope you will make the rest of their days here enjoyable." said the teacher. (This happens in both siblings classes). They all had farewell parties and would miss their friends and school.
~America~
"Now listen. Jake, Erin, Matt and David will be leaving for a school England." There were some 'great' for David and some sighs for Jake and Erin. They did not have a party but Erin and Jake had loads of gifts from the opposite sex.
