"First years, this way!"
It was like the Groundskeeper didn't even need to shout it as a number already went straight for the nearby boats. A few students even asking if it was okay, "Ai. You're alright to jump into the boat. We will be departing shortly as soon as everyone's on." There was no need to dwiddle outside any longer. "We will then be sailing to the castle where a hearty meal awaits you all." Along with many other surprises.

“ACE hi!” She smiled over to him and waved as she jumped into the boat behind him. THIS was going to be fun. “Should we race? Maybe?” She asked excitedly her eyes pleading with her friend.

"We should totally do that. Who we gonna wait for? and We are gonna wait for Torrance, right?" she said eyeing the empty seat in the boat. "Also, I think if we race, we should name it the Millennium Falcon. We'll make the Kessel run in less that fourteen parsecs." She said with a beamy face. "Though, I don't know what a parsec is, no one ever told me that." See THAT guy said the magic phrase: hearty meal. Tenacius didn’t know who he was but he was his favorite dude already. Meets them with boats and promises a good meal at the end of that? Guy knows his way to a little boy's heart.
It wasn’t long before Mel and Sam pounced into his boat. Crew almost complete. "Ey Ugo hurry up!" the curly top hollered into the crowd. But then Sam said something that was just utterly brilliant "Of course the Millennium Falcon! Perfect for a dingy like this one." he laughed.
When EVERYONE has gotten on board they pushed off from the shore, Tenacius seated at the bow, looking ahead by the light of the lanterns. He could see the outline of the castle with its glowing windows. And for a moment, he fell silent, a rarity when he wasn’t asleep. "Wow it really is purtee, " he whispered under his breath. There was an overwhelming feeling of awe that welled up within. He cant wait to get there!.......
