"Put Me Down! Put Me Down!" I shouted. Dad only chuckled.

"Take it back, and I'll put you down." He replied. I shook my head.

"No way. You're an old Yak. Get used to it." I announced. Dad smirked.

"Then I guess you wouldn't mind if I started spinning?" Dad asked. I widened my eyes.

"You wouldn't" I replied. Dad shrugged and started spinning. I was yelling like a lunatic. "Dad! Knock it off! Please! Dear Merlin! Put me down, before I explode!" I shouted. Dad stopped and set me down. I tripped over myself trying to regain balance, but after a quick recovery, I was okay. I glared at dad. "Do us both a favor. Go insult a Hypogriff." I announced wiping the nonexistent dust off my shoulders, which got a laugh from someone. I looked in the direction of where the laugh came from.

"Well if it isn't Mike Newell and little Shadow. I knew I heard a familiar shout." Announced a familiar voice. I smiled.

"David Yates, How have you been?" Dad asked, holding out his hand to greet his old pal. Where there was a David Yates there was usually a Gemma Yates right behind him. Gemma was my one of my Production Besties, since our dads were both Directors.

"Peachy, Mike. Hey Shadow. Opp. I see it in your eyes. You're looking for Gemma aren't you?" David asked. I nodded.

"Gemma is in the Cast room meeting the cast. Why don't you go accompany her?" David asked. I nodded eagerly. David snapped his fingers and a woman with a clipboard and glasses walked over to David. "Would you kindly direct Ms. Newell to Gemma?" David asked. She nodded. I smiled and hugged my dad. But he grabbed my arm and crouched down to my level.

"Best behavior young lady. And keep this on your persona on all times you here me?" Dad asked, handing me a tag with a string to wear as a necklace that had the words "Directors Daughter" imprinted on it. I nodded and followed the women to a room a little ways away then opened the door.

"Oh yeah, She's super cool. She's the best artist at our school by far. Hey look there she is! Shadow! Shadow over here!" Shouted a voice I knew well. I looked for her and finally saw Gemma, waving to me, while standing next to four people. I sprinted over and nearly knocked Gemma on the ground, tackling her into a hug. She pulled back and gave me her famous smile. "I was just taking about you! All good things, all good things." Gemma announced. I nodded.

"I heard you. Heck I could hear you a mile away, Gemma." I stated.

"All three of us could hear you Gemma." announced a second voice I knew well.

"Jane! Katlin! You're here too!?" Gemma and I shouted at the exact same time. Jane Cuaron and Katlin Columbus, swaggered over and gave us each a hug.

"Apparently we all are. How you been? Shadow are those new head phones?" Jane asked. I nodded and put them on her ears.

"They are noise canceling." I whispered.

"What?" She half shouted. Gemma, Katlin, and I burst out in laughter. I took them off her ears and put them back around my neck.

"Never gets old." I replied. Then Gemma turned us to the four people I didn't know at all.

"So Gemma, You gonna introduce us to your friends?" Katlin asked. Gemma nodded.

"These are a few of the actors, and one of the actresses for the movie." Gemma announced. I looked to each of them, wide eyed.

"Shut. Up. Seriously?" I asked. They nodded. I smiled.

"This is Daniel Radcliffe, He's going to be playing Harry Potter." Gemma announced, gesturing to the brown haired boy in front of me. I put my hand out to shake.

"Hiya, Dan, I'm Shadow, I'm Director Newell's daughter" I announced, shaking his hand. He smiled at me.

"Thats an interesting name. Shadow. Cool." Daniel announced. I nodded.

"I get that a lot." I replied. Then turned my attention to the girl.

"This is Emma Watson, She'll be playing Hermione Granger" Gemma announced with a smirk. My jaw unhinged from my upper lip.

"Your playing Hermione?! Wow! She's my favorite witch in the whole book! Good luck to you Emma" I announced, shaking her hand.

"Thank you, I'll do my best." Emma replied. I nodded and my gaze fell on a ginger.

"I'm gonna make a wild guess, Gemma. Is he going to play Ron Weasley?" I asked pointing to the ginger.

"Rightio Shadow. This is Rupert Grint, Playing, as you guessed, Ron Weasley." Gemma replied. I held my hand out to shake. Then I put my free hand over my mouth.

"My Favorite Weasley of all of them, might I add. With Fred and George at a close second and third" I whispered to him. He nodded. "Good luck, Rupert." I announced. Finally I turned to a blonde.

"Shadow, don't scream. This is Tom Felton and He'll be playing-"

"Is he playing Draco Malfoy?!" I asked eagerly. Gemma's jaw dropped.

"How'd you know?" She asked. I looked back to Tom and pointed at his platinum blonde hair but kept my body facing Gemma.

"There are only two characters in the entire book who have that color hair and he's way to young to be playing Lucius." I stated. "No offense" I added looking back to him. He nodded.

"None taken" Tom replied. I nodded.

"Plus he just reminds me of Draco Malfoy." I shrugged. Gemma nodded. I looked to Tom who looked at us both confused. "Didn't read the books, did you?" I asked him. He shook his head. I placed a hand on his shoulder. "Thats okay, Jane Didn't read them either." I announced, pointing behind me, to Jane. Jane shrugged.

"I'm not to big on the whole 'Reading' Thing" Jane announced, putting air quotes around reading to show emphasis. I rolled my eyes.

"Maybe that's the reason your A.R. level is so low." I announced, then turned back to Tom.

"You'll be fine as long as you follow the script." I stated with a wink and a nod. Tom smiled.

"Thanks" He replied.

"My pleasure" I announced.

"So, Shadow, what have you been working on since we last saw you? Anything cool?" Katlin asked. I smiled and pulled my drawing book out of my bag. Gemma squealed.

"Letmeseeletmeseeletmesee!" She shouted, rushing over from Dan and Emma to come next to me. I rolled my eyes.

"You really do come out of no where, every time I pull this out." I announced. Gemma shrugged.

"That thing has heavenly rays shining from it every time you pull it out. I'm attracted to shiny things. Stop drawing such awesome art and I wouldn't have to see it." Gemma replied. I shook my head.

"I'd much sooner drop dead then stop drawing, nice try though." I laughed and handed it to Katlin. She opened it and was instantly shocked.

"Shadow. Why didn't you turn this in for your art project?" Katlin asked, looking at my graphite picture of a girl siting by a river with a flower crown on. I shrugged.

"Everyone already thinks I'm a show off in that class. I'd hate to have proved them right." I explained. Katlin nodded and turned the page. Gemma was clearly holding back some major squeals, because she was jumping up and down at every doodle. I laughed at her reaction to the one that she inspired. She practically ripped the book out of Katlin's hands and ran around screaming "I inspired this! I inspired this! Hahahaha!" The three of us ran after her trying to pry it from her hands.

"Give it here, Gemma! You're gonna break it!" laughed as me and Jane and Katlin all latched on to the closed book and jerked it one way, while Gemma jerked it the other.

"NO! I Want It!" Gemma replied. I giggled as we continued to struggle to get the book from Gemma.

"Its mine! If I tear it out and give it to you can I have it back?" I asked. Gemma gasped and released it instantly, which sent Jane, Katlin, and I flying backwards, into the ground. None of us were hurt to bad, but still, it was sure to leave a bruise. The three of us laughed and got up off the ground. I carefully ripped the picture of of the book and handed it to Gemma who squealed, jumped up and down and, ran around the room as if she was an airplane shoving the picture in every actor and actresses face, no matter who they were. We shook our heads.

"What are we going to do with her?" Jane asked. I shrugged.

"Well, for a start, limiting her access to sugar." I suggested. That got a laugh out of both. We all followed after Gemma, hoping she would calm down, soon. "Lets not forget, I still want to do EVERYTHING this place has to offer." I stated. The two face palmed.

"You always have such a long list to accomplish, Shadow." Katlin announced. I nodded.

"The more on the list, the less time we have to be board." I reasoned, with a laugh. "Now come on! So much to do, so little time to do it in!" I announced, running after Gemma.

"Charlie and the chocolate factory references for the win!" Katlin shouted after me. I laughed.

"You Know It!" I shouted back, over my shoulder.
