The new third year hauled himself on one of the empty carriages, and then he looked round frantically for his friends. He just needed someone to protect him.
WAHH.
As Bliss walked towards the carriages, she wrapped herself up in her jacket and shivered slightly. Although it wasn't cold, she still felt...weird, as if she needed protecting more
by her jacket? now that she was leaving the school's boundaries. Not that the school had proved to be safe this term. Not at all. Still, she turned around to look at the grand castle and blinked away tears. She'd be back in no time, she told herself, before turning around.
Now actually on to the carriages.
For a second, Bliss paused in front of one of them and just looked. Her parents had told her all about the creatures which pulled the carriages. Apparently they were called Thestrals, and looked like big, black horse, but she couldn't see them herself. Luckily. Idly, she wondered that if a person that could see them, took a photo of them, would it come out blank or not.
Or did the camera have to see death too?
Pushing her weird thoughts aside, Bliss reached the carriage and stuck her head in. OH LOOK. It was Theodore.
"Hope you don't mind me joining you," she said and smiled, before pulling herself in. Theo was her friend, so it was safe to assume that he wouldn't mind her company. Unless he had reserved this carriage for other people. Let's hope not, Bliss thought as she plopped herself down in the seat opposite Theo.
