The bird still didn't move. Hmmm. Odd for an owl to reject food. Benjamin kept staring at the owl, and figured maybe it would like a nice mouse. He got up, walked towards the door and picked up the dead mouse and raised it up to the owl. At once the bird turned it's head and snatched the mouse right out of Benjamins hand and devoured the mouse. Benjamin laughed and waited to see what the owl would do next. but it just turned its head back around and stayed there.

"Particular bird you have there, Christopher. Not very social at all.it'll eat, then go back to sleep. Baltimore you say?That's a nice name. Do you still long for your home, Christopher? You seem a bit distraught. I know I am. But I'm excited to go. learn new things, animals I've never seen, the moving stairs, and all of the portraits. But also missing home already. I hear we're nearing the Hogwart's stop, so we'd better get ready. All I'm going to do is slip on my new cloak that my father bought for me.He was in Slytherin, Both my grandparts were in Slytherin and so on and so on. So I have a long line of Slytherins to follow in. Some pretty big shoes to follow. What about both of your families?"

Christopher watched the bird ignore the pellets and eat the dead mouse messily. He thought it was really gross. Baltimore had never really been social. It didn't like the company of the other owls and always acted in comparison. Christopher didn't mind though, he thought Baltimore was odd in a good way. The owl was always alone at home, so it like to be on its own. It never bothered anyone, and he preferred it that way.

Christopher grinned. "Yes, he's quite odd. I've always wanted to go visit the States, and Baltimore was one of my top cities to visit. Oh and I really don't miss my house that much, I'm just very excited to get to Hogwarts. For me, it is home. There is so much to learn, and see, and do..." He glanced out the window again, hoping he might see the castle in the distance. He started to slip on his shoes and stopped dead in his tracks when he heard the mention of his family. "Wow. That's really cool, having your whole family be in Slytherin for generations." He wanted to avoid the question directed at him, because in the past, other Slytherins always judged him wrongly and were rude to him because of his heritage. Christopher sighed. "Actually, I'm the first in my family to go to Hogwarts. My younger sister will be a first year this year, but she's the only other witch or wizard in my family. I'm a muggleborn, so there aren't any footsteps to follow in, really."
