“What’s happening though, anyway?” James asked, Remus really never had given a proper answer.
“Nobody knows. It’s just Dumbledore being, well... Dumbledore. In the opening feast he told us we had to come down here, he didn’t say why.”
“Huh.” I said, exchanging a glance with James. “Probably something crazy, knowing Dumbledore.”
We made it into the Great Hall and took a seat at the Gryffindor table. I was curious as to what it was; it seemed like something that wasn’t usual.
“Students,” Dumbledore said, silencing the murmuring of everyone. “I presume you are wondering why I have called you here on such a pleasant evening?” He chuckled, his blue eyes twinkling, and went on.
“I am very pleased to announce that in the near future we will be having guests in our halls.” Chatter started to pick up again and I turned to the others, but Dumbledore had started again.
“Now, now. I must ask you to hold your thoughts and questions for the moment, they will all be answered. I am sure you have all heard of the ball that will soon be held here, and I hope you are all as excited as I am.”
“It will be a wonderful event, I can assure you, but it is also in celebration of our guests, and that Hogwarts will be hosting it. It will be like an exchange, a few students from different schools from around the world will be coming here to Hogwarts; it will be a great learning experience, a chance to meet new friends and people from different places.
I hope they will be able to fit in, and we will do our best efforts to make them feel welcome, as they will join us in classes and any other activities here.
You may now talk amongst yourselves.”
“What do you think?” I grinned. “It sounds pretty cool, eh?” James nodded in agreement. Remus looked like he was thinking about something, but he nodded absently, smiling.
“I wonder how many different schools this will involve, this certainly will be very interesting.”
