Jasmine had stowed her trunk and was now ready to find a seat for the long ride home. Home......that had a nice ring to it. She was soooo happy to finally be outside of the castle. She had been about twenty steps past stir crazy and felt like a prisoner being released from a jail cell.

Walking along the train corridor, Jasmine finally decided on an empty compartment in the middle of the train. She was one of the early arrivals it appeared because she pretty much had her choice of compartments. Sliding the door open, Jasmine went inside. She put her bag in the overhead rack and sat down by the window. Looking outside, she watched as her classmates slowly made their way to the train. One more year. It seemed like she had just arrived at Hogwarts and now she had one more year. One year to make her mark. Resting her head against the window, Jasmine reflected on her first year. It had been.........interesting.
