And the luggage carts and owls weren't exactly classified as normal either. But he found the stares almost amusing, though London in 2076 wasn't full of the most normal people anyway.
"Oh quit your yapping, we're coming!" he called to the redhead, who was way ahead of him. Pushing his way through the crowd, he grinned at the Skylar adults, who clearly felt the same way he did. The sooner they got Selina to hush the better. That girl could be so demanding sometimes! Looking up at Elyon, who was perched on his cart and looking around at everyone in a daze. "How're you doing up there, El?" he asked, as if speaking to a little child, trying to mask the worry in his voice. He was always worried when it came to her.
Sitting on top of the cart, holding her knees to her chest, Elyon sat her head on her knees, tilting it as she watched all of the people around her. She was fourteen. She would be a fourth year. She was growing up and she didn't like it. Couldn't she just stay a kid forever and never grow up? Couldn't she stay home and not go to school? She wanted to be back in her real home, not here with Sely's family. They were nice, but they weren't her family. She didn't know them.
Looking down at her big brother, she said nothing. She just looked at him and blinked a few times. She wanted to smile back, and say 'Yes! I am!' But she wasn't. She couldn't find the strength to smile. She had forgotten how. She couldn't even speak- words no longer came out of her mouth. So she sat and stared, and poked his nose to let him know that she was still in that brain of hers, sometimes.
Selina spun around with a squeak in her sneakers to glare at Christopher. As her body snapped around she felt the tassles from her bag hit her leg, but she did not react to the tickle. It was a serious face moment that she could not let be ruined by a giggle or reaction. So she gave him a look that informed him that he was not going to ruin this for her. She was too excited about the upcoming term to let Christopher ruin it for her... now was her time to be all excited and the like. This term was going to be great. She had good friends, a great guy that she actually liked for the right reasons, an awesome head of house and obviously her shiny Captain badge... that she was wearing... right now.... and always. Could you blame her? The girl was crazed for Quidditch.
She threw her hands to her hips and rose her eyebrow. In the darkest voice she could muster she said,
"Don't ruin this for me Christopher. Understand?" Then her lips broke out into a smile and she added,
"COME ON! I AM TOO EXCITED!" Jake smiled at his daughter who was sort of flailing in the middle of Muggle London. He did not care, the Muggles could stare all they wanted. Although he had to admit that perhaps his wizard robes out in the middle of the day were not the smartest ideas, but that was what Sophie had laid out for him that morning. He could not be blamed. He just put on whatever was out.
"Alright Sel-Monster we are coming." He turned around to the group and said nicely, "Well... come you lot. Le's get a move on. No hussle means no muscle." Sophie rolled her eyes, "You bend like melted chocolate for that girl. She needs to be told to wait or else she is going to have a problem eventually, Jacob." She understood that her husband loved Selina to death and all but she was a being unreasonable. If she was not such a loving and understanding woman she would caution to use the word brat...
Finally everyone caught up with Selina and she ran over to grab her cart from her Dad,
"Well come on then... in we go." And with that Selina ran through the portal to Platform 9 and 3/4.
