Part 4 - Time To Take A Trip

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

As requested, the exchange students remained in the Great Hall after breakfast, a few of their friends staying to see them off.

Ron and Hermione had pulled Harry aside. \"I\'m telling you, Harry, I have a bad feeling about this. I can\'t believe that Dumbledore would do something as stupid as putting you and Malfoy together at the same school,\" Ron said not for the first time.

Hermione nodded in agreement. \"I don\'t like this either, believe me. But I have to say that Harry has it easier of the two.\"

\"How\'s that?\" Harry asked.

Hermione looked at Harry as if he were twelve years old again. \"Oh come on. You only have to deal with Malfoy. Malfoy not only has to deal with you, and I don\'t mean that in a bad way, but he\'s going to America as well. We all know how prejudiced he is, so now he\'ll be dealing with American wizards as well as Yank-, well, you know the other sort he despises,\" she said by way of explanation.

Both Ron and Harry grinned. \"Oh yeah, I hadn\'t thought about that,\" Ron admitted. \"He can\'t stand anyone who isn\'t a pureblood like him, and now he will be over there with a different nationality as well as, well, you know.\"

Harry reached out and hugged Hermione. \"You know, I think you\'ve just made my day. Well, at least until we get there and the git does something to brass me off.\"

\"If he doesn\'t do that before you leave,\" Ron said as he looked over to where the small group of Slytherins were glaring daggers back at them.

At that time, Dumbledore joined the small group of students. \"Well, the time has come, students, for you to embark on your journey. If you will join your partner, I will hand you your port-keys and then you will be on your way.\"

Harry quickly hugged his best friends. \"I\'ll try to write, but I\'m not making any promises,\" he said.

\"Just stay safe, Harry,\" Hermione suggested.

Harry smiled. \"I\'ll try.\"

\"Quidditch pitch. That\'s where you can get him,\" Ron offered.

At this, Harry laughed. \"Already ahead of you on that,\" he said as he separated from them. \"Take care, you two.\"

\"Potter and Malfoy,\" the Headmaster called.

Each student left their friends and joined him. \"Are you ready then?\" Dumbledore asked. After receiving a nod from each of his students, he handed them a crystal snow globe with a replica of Hogwarts inside. \"This is your port-key. As soon as I say the incantation, you will be transported into Headmaster Collins\' office.\"

The boys took a moment to look at the device and then back at their Headmaster. \"So you do not forget where you came from,\" he simply said. After a few muttered phrases, they felt the familiar tug behind their navel and a few seconds later they were in America.
