'The sky was the most that shocked me too...' Nope, that was definitely not it. A poem, yes, Hannah had taken interest in writing them. Sitting next to a shelf, she liked to write, the library, yes, the library was a perfect place. So quiet and... And what? she thought. It's perfect for me to write, but now I think I'll just grab a book... She stood up and went to check out the books. One in the top had taken Hannah's interest, the cover was a bright tone of blue. My favourite book... 'Tales of Beadle The Bard'. The girl hadn't seen that book in ages, if course it was too high up in the shelf. But still, Hannah wanted to read it, she needed to. Something about that book... stood out to her. She saw a big ladder, a sliding one, and she took it next to where the book was. It was the on the last shelf of the bookcase, so it was very high up. Must be one that kids never read... that's sad... She pushed the book so she could get it, but it fell on the other side. There was a brown-haired girl reading there. Hannah didn't recognize the book that she was reading, but that wasn't the problem. She ran to try and stop the book from falling, but it did. "I'm so sorry..."

A nice, quiet afternoon in the library sounded like the ideal time to Sienna. She had finished the book she had been reading previously days ago, but with the many things to keep her busy around the castle, she hadn't had the time to return to the library and find something new to read. Now that she finally had the rare occasion of having empty time on her hands, she found her way to the library and buried herself within the many shelves of books in the room.
Her hand brushed against the spine of the titles on the shelf in front of her before it finally found one that looked interesting. Drawing the book out from its place on the shelf, she glanced at the cover, which showed promise. Still, one must never judge a book by its cover, so Sienna opened the thick volume to the first page. She began to skim the text, trying to determine if the book was one that would keep her interest. Brushing a lock of raven hair away from her eyes, she turned the page, enthralled within the words. By the time she heard the disturbance it would be too late.
It started with a slight shuffling noise. Like someone reaching for a book and pulling it off the shelf, except it did not go into their hands. It fell the opposite way, to the side of the shelf Sienna stood on. She looked up, just in time to see the book falling towards her. There was no time to move out of the path of the falling object, only to duck her head back down to avoid the book falling directly on her face. It smacked her in the back of the head before finished its descent to the floor of the library.
Cursing under her breath, she picked up the book and examined it. Seconds later a girl younger than Sienna came rushing around the corner and upon seeing the book started to apologize. "What's done is done," she stated. "I believe this belongs to you?" She held out the book with an unfriendly, irritated expression clear on her face. "I do hope the book is worth it."───────────────────────────────────────────

She had an irritated expression on her face as she spoke, not Hannah, the girl who Hannah had drooped the book.
"It's a good book, old, but I read it as child. It marks me since I read it. It is a fairy tale book in a 'wizard like' way, if you're a pure blood you might have read it, or a half-blood, you just might not remember..." Hannah had gotten a bit carried away Right, it's rude to talk about people's origins... "I shouldn't have said that. Sorry, I just..." she didn't know what to apologize for. "Um, it's okay to be a muggle-born, or a half-blood, or a pure-blood or a wizard-born, or a half-veela, or a seer, or a half-goblin, or a half-giant, or whatever you are."
Hannah sighted, "I'm Hannah, plaisir, et désolé encore à cause du truc du livre..." she spoke in French introducing herself, oh good, first the book now French? "Sorry I'll repet that . I'm Hannah, pleasure, and sorry again because of the book thing..."
"It's all kind of new to me, being in a school- a real one." "I was home-schooled my whole life and...", she realized that the girl was too carried away to listen to Hannah's talk. A book is a book. It traps you inside., suddenly, the girl looked at Hannah, she seemed to be listening... Maybe now she'd actually talk?

The girl who had caused the book to fall on Sienna began to ramble on and on about the book. The book, if she recalled the title correctly, was the Tales of Beedle the Bard, a storybook for wizards and witches. There was no Snow White or Cinderella for magical children, but the tales in the book the girl was now holding tightly. "Yes I am familiar with the book," she said with a slight eye roll as the girl started another rant on blood purity and other races. When she mentioned seer, Sienna winced slightly, a gesture that no one that wasn't paying attention incredibly closely should've noticed. "I'm a pure-blood, I've read it," she said.
The girl then introduced herself as Hannah before saying a whole lot of what sounded like French, though she couldn't be sure. Sienna spoke English, Latin, and what could be described as rough Greek, but French was not something she could understand. When Hannah realized what she had said, she corrected herself, translating it into a language Sienna could comprehend. "Sienna, and, well, what's done is done."
Hannah went on to hurriedly explain she had been homeschooled up until Hogwarts, which, in Sienna's mind, was not something to say to a complete stranger, but this girl seemed very talkative. That meant she would probably end up driving Sienna insane. "I'm sure you'll figure out how things work here pretty quickly." And if she didn't, there would be plenty of helpful people around to show her how things were done, though Sienna was not one of those people.───────────────────────────────────────────

Oh gosh, Hannah was very talkative, she couldn't stop when she started, and end what she said.
Hannah sighted. Keeping very quiet, she heard that the girl's name was Sienna, something about that name... It was familiar, Is it really? she'd always despised the name. It seemed like a seer's name...
Her heart started pounding, a seer... someone who could see the future... someone who had visions... She breathed normally again. Well, I mustn't ask, that'd be rude... she thought.
Sienna talked about how Hannah would figure things out quickly. "I hope so too." she spoke in a calm way, as Sienna had shown that she was a bit irritated.
"So " ", what are you reading?", forgetting about the thought, Hannah simply smiled . Ugh, sometimes my thoughts despise me
Ignoring her mind, Hannah started to doodle in a small piece of paper, the one that she was writing the poem.
Summer of July
Thora was packing her bag
She used to brag
About the trips she took
The sky was the most that shocked me too
She was stuck, Sienna was a complete stranger, so Hannah couldn't ask her on her thoughts.
Summer of July
Thora was packing her bag
She used to brag
About the trips she took
The sky was the most that shocked me too
But all that
Was only a book
A liar she was
And a complete blur
After months
She had read the book
The girl forgot
Making them rot
She wrote all that down, and kept quiet, so she didn't irritate Sienna. Now the poem was slightly better

Though Sienna was getting quite ready to come to the conclusion of this unpleasant chance meeting, she listened with a short attention span as Hannah asked what book she had been reading. After Hannah's book had fallen, Sienna had dropped her own, but it was back in her hands now. She turned it slightly so the younger girl could see the front cover of the book. "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," she said shortly.
Though Hannah seemed more than ready to open up completely to a stranger with probably nothing in common with her, Sienna was not that type of person. For example, she would not tell the other girl that she had read the book more times than she could count or that she was practically counting the days until she reached her third year so that she would be able to take Care of Magical Creatures. It was information that the girl who Sienna had been blissfully ignorant of just a few minutes ago did not need. Who knows, she could turn out to be as much of an idiot and rude person as Bubba McGarry. One could never be too careful when it came to other people.
While she had been caught up in her own thoughts, the other girl had begun to write on a rumpled piece of paper. She might have been known to ignore people, but there was no way Sienna had spaced out long enough for Hannah to become bored enough to try to fill the time while still standing there. If she thought she could have, she would have tried to leave while Hannah stood there awkwardly scribbling on the paper. However, the way Hannah was standing suggested their conversation was far from over. No please, just let me wait here until it's convenient for you to talk. Don't let me interrupt, she thought sarcastically.

Hannah heard her talk again. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. She peeked from above the paper. "Oh cool, I've read that book."
She was making a bad impression, wasn't she?
She smiled, and tried to keep a neutral look, a neutral impression. Maybe they could let all this go? And be friends? No, definitely not. Hannah needed a way to get out of this conversation, without talking a lot.
She put the small piece of paper with her bad handwriting, and put it in her pocket.
Hannah grabbed the blue book, which caused all of that to happen. "I'm going to put this back" she walked back to the shelf, climbed the ladder, that hadn't been touched, and carefully put the book back.
Surely I can think of something... she climbed down, walked back to where Sienna was and looked at her watch.
"Oh no! I'm sorry, but I really have to go!" she lied, about that. In her mind, she hadn't done homework, and needed to rush to the common room.
She had done all her homework, but that was the first excuse to come to mind.
"Bye Sienna! Nice meeting you!"
