Going to London on the way to Hogwarts was like taking the Floo network somewhere to use their Floo to get to your neighbor's house... Did that make sense? Kye didn't know anymore, but she had been up for quite some hours now and had in fact taken the Floo Network to a family member's house who lived much closer to the Station.
Kye had everything packed in the back of one of the cars... except for her kitten. Heck no was she going anywhere without her kitten. She said her goodbyes to her parents, who then started talking to other parents on Platform 9 3/4. Who they were, Kye didn't know. Old friends perhaps?
Kye entered the Hogwarts Express and her eyebrows went up. Goodness, these people were all older than she up here in the front. Everyone seemed to tower over her. She slipped through the growing crowd and made her way back. The students seemed to be getting younger as she went back, and she remembered the girls she had met in Diagon Alley. Oh how she hoped to run into them.
Finally she had made her way to almost the very back of the train, and by chance had looked back to see if there was an empty compartment when she noticed none other than Ariadne sitting in a compartment (with others around their age at least!). Sighing with relief, she knocked on the compartment door and tried to make eye contact with each of the three in there. "Hello, mind if I join?..." and directing her attention back to Ariadne she asked her, "Remember me, Ariadne?" Quote:

Must be a new first year, which was cool, because that meant the girl was about Ariadne's age! Ariadne nodded in reply and scooted over. "Yeah, sure. It's cool. It's just the two of us anyway," she replied. "I'm Ariadne Greingoth." She would say Carl's name, but she figured he kind of wanted to do that. "A Hufflepuff recording event?" she commented, turning her attention back to Carl. "That sounds cool! What was that all about?" She wanted to hear all the details! "What'd you record?" Hanging out with Muggle friends also sounded cool, although, Ariadne didn't have any of those kind friends. Her family was Pureblood, and since they'd always lived in a Wizarding village she hadn't had much exposure to the Muggles. "My summer was good. We didn't go anywhere special. There were some Quidditch matches my sister was in, but that was all. I was just happy to be back at home with my mom and dad."
There was a sound at the door again, causing Ariadne to divert her attention to it once again. Wow. The compartment was HOPPING. This was awesome! She was glad she didn't have to worry about riding alone. Ariadne looked carefully at the girl asking if she remembered her. Ohh...SHE DID! "Flourish and Blott's!" ... "Kye, right? Of course I remember you. Come on in!" she replied. "This is Carl and..." ...a new girl she didn't even know yet. She looked at the new girl, realizing she hadn't yet mentioned her name. Quote:

The blonde smiled at the two students inside. "Thank you so much," she said and entered the compartment. Alas, a place to rest her poor little feet! But before she could slide the door close, someone else decided to join too! Not that the eleven year old seemed to mind, at least. She loved company actually!
Vivi took a seat beside the brunette girl, who introduced herself as Ariadne Greingoth. She should ask her Auntie about her. Maybe she was a daughter of someone Aunt Elise knew. That would've been cool. "Nice to meet you, Ariadne," Vivi said. "And you too, Carl. Nice to meet you too." Yay! More friendsies! The blonde was so pumped for this term. Let us forget the fact that she was wibbling a lot before hopping abroad the train. She'd forgotten all about that!
Oh, right. She forgot to introduce herself. Ehe, oopsies. Vivi grinned at all the occupants of the compartment. "My name is Vivian Fairfield. First year," she shared. Or maybe the first year part was pretty obvious? Ariadne and Carl seemed to know each other. Must've been a year or two older than her, then. But the other girl - Ariadne introduced her as Kye, if she wasn't mistaken - looked new. Hopefully someone just as new as she was!
But first things first. Vivi took out a gigantic bag of marshmallows from her sling bag. Her mum had placed an undetectable expansion charm on it so that it could actually fit. "Do you guys want marshmallows?" She didn't mind sharing. Vivian was actually feeling extra generous and friendly today. Quote:

As everyone was introduced, she looked at the person, trying to memorize their face and name. She hadn't had that much practice before so this was all new. "My name is... well it's Valkyrie Atwater, but I go by Kye, and I'm also a first year, " she told the group at large. She was on the fence about her name. She thought it sounded awesome, but right now she was a little sheepish since their names all seemed more ordinary. Yea, Kye would be better.
Something started feeling heavy in her hand. "Er... I guess I should ask before getting settled, is anyone allergic to cats?" She readjusted the carrier in her hands and raised it so that they could see. "This is Edana.. or Edie (ee-dee) for short," she shrugged. Edie was looking around curiously, her emerald eyes shining ever bright compared to her black fur. She was still only 11 weeks old or so, so everything she did was adorable.
She didn't want to deal with anyone's allergic reactions if they had them so she figured she had better ask now. Honestly though, it shouldn't be an issue since it was one of the accepted pets of Hogwarts...
Carl grinned at how relieved the blonde girl looked. Maybe she was new, that would explain the anxiety and how he had never seen her before. "Nice to meet you too, Vivian!" He said. So she was a First Year. Cool - she must be excited for Hogwarts!
The Badger nodded at Ariadne. "Yeah. We went to Professor Myers's recording studio and recorded a Hufflepuff song. There were these balloons that had music notes in them, those were awesome." He said. He listened to her description of her summer, she seemed to have a happy holiday as well. "Cool! Does your sister play Professional Quidditch?" He was always interested in hearing about the Wizarding Sport, even though he did not play it.
He looked up again as the door opened. Another girl around their age had decided to join them! "Hi! Nice to meet you, Kye." Carl smiled.
The twelve-year-old turned his attention back to Vivian as he heard a ruffling noise and his smile broadened at the sight of the big bag of marshmallows. "Yes, thank you. I can buy you guys something at the Food Trolley later if you want." He said.
Cats? "No, I love cats!" Carl could not take his eyes away from Kye's small cat. "She is adorable ..." He admitted. Speaking of pets, where did his owl go again?
