"I'm not sure. Neither of my parents went to Hogwarts, but all the houses sound wonderful in their own way." Olena responded to the lder girl's inquiry.

Natka looked curiously at Pyralis, rather amazed at the elder girl's lack of modesty. Shrugging the rather unpleasant feeling the sixth year awoke in her, Natka turned to Olena once more, hearing the nervousness return to the younger girl's voice.

"Of course, they are all great," she agreed. "And don't worry, even if you don't get into Ravenclaw, that doesn't really change the fact we're friends. I mean, the first person I met here was a Gryffindor, and I'm still friends with her to this day," she tried to smile enouragingly at Olena, hoping the girl would forget her fear for a few moments at least.

"No. I don't mind."Pyralis smiled at Lasca."This is Natka, and Olena." She nodded to Olena. "Yes, Gryffindor is a good house. Hermione Granger, my boyfriends cousin and Harry Potters bet friend was in that house as well."

"Hi, Lasca, I'm Natka," the third-year introduced herself with a smile. "No, of course we don't mind, go ahead and join us. We're just discussing houses," she said.

"She's awesome. And SUPER smart."Pyralis said.

"Lyra Noir, extra-special Hufflepuff and Pink Lady," she said as cool and calmly as she could, meaning every word she spoke. She had a reputation to keep and a school to rule...with Banana of course.

Olena smile thankfully. "Thanks."

"Hi, Lasca, I'm Natka," the third-year introduced herself with a smile. "No, of course we don't mind, go ahead and join us. We're just discussing houses," she said.

Olena smiled a little at the newcomer, feeling slightly overwhelmed. "Hi," she said, using some of her courage. "I'm Olena."

"I'm sorry. When I said I'm sure you will get into I house what I meant was you'll get into one that you love. The Sorting Hat makes no mistakes. Any house you get into will be good. You can still talk to us too. Gryffindor and Ravenclaw are my favorites. Hufflepuffs and Slytherin is good too."Pyralis said. She glanced at Natka."Excuse me."She dipped her head in apology, showing the hidden crown on her head. "I'll help you. I can give you a tour and show you around the school. Unless Natka wants to. Or we both could."

Olena could sense some kind of tension. Her mum always said she'd been good at reading feelings. "Well, why don't you both show me around? I'm going to need all the help I can get," she admitted.

"Love to." Pyralis smiled politely. "I'm sorry if I appeared rude."She apologized.

Lasca smiled and entered the compartment. Smoothing her skirt out from underneath her she sat down, careful not to jar her sleeping kitten. The first year looked absolutely petrified, while Pyralis and Natka looked at ease.
Interesting.

"Houses? I thought I was going to be placed in Hufflepuff for sure, but ended up in Ravenclaw instead." Smiling encouragingly at the young first year she then turned her attention to Natka.

"I think we met at Diagon Alley although only briefly I believe." She remembered her face but couldn't remember having talked to the girl at all. Of course, the trip to Diagon Alley had been short and sweet.

Pyralis smiled at Lasca. "Don't worry. You're not alone." She rested her hand on the first years shoulder and sent a calming aura through her."But I am hardly ever rude."She again apologized.

"So... do any of you play quidditch?" Olena asked hesitantly. She liked to follow the game and was debating on trying out for her house's team.

"Oh, don't worry about it," Natka replied, suddenly feeling a bit awkward at having let her feelings show so obviously. "I don't usually talk to poeple who seem so... confident as you do," she added with a smile, hoping Pyralis wouldn't take her jumping-to-conclusions-too-fast to heart.

Natka followed Olena's gaze and looked at Lasca.

"Hmm, we might have... I'm sorry, I honestly don't remember," Natka replied, smiling shyly. "So, what year are you in? You're in Ravenclaw too, right?" she asked, looking more carefully at the girl's robes.

Kenneth made his way on the train, his parents didn't stick around long enough to tell him goodbye, they just left. It was weird enough that he was a wizard now he was stuck with a whole bunch of different wizards and witches. Kenneth saw on his list that he was allowed a pet but he wasn't allowed to 'waste' his money on an animal so he was alone for the whole year.

Kenneth bit his lip as he passed through the hall way. There were no compartments left here, he didn't feel comfortable with people he didn't know. Taking longer strides he used his large hands to open an empty compartment he spotted. Pulling his bag in he sat lose to the window and stared out.

Nocturnal_Nordic 05-16-2009 07:21 PM

Raven walked onto the train after saying goodbye to her parents, trunk stowed away and she only carried with her her black and white cat. Already in her school robes as not be too late to take them on when they reached the school. She walked past some compartments looking for somewhere to sit but everywhere was ful, she stopped infront of one door looking in.

Opening the door she asked "Hi, mind if I sit with you.?"

Natka followed Olena's gaze and looked at Lasca.

"Hmm, we might have... I'm sorry, I honestly don't remember," Natka replied, smiling shyly. "So, what year are you in? You're in Ravenclaw too, right?" she asked, looking more carefully at the girl's robes.


"What do you mean confident??"
Pyralis asked."You don't show your feelings. I'm telepathic. I don't just freely read minds though. They come to me when someone is thinking about me, sometimes I'll do it on accident,when I'm thinking, or depressed or something."Pyalis normally didn't tell people this especially right after meeting them. "Yes I am in Ravenclaw."

Riverlynn 05-16-2009 07:24 PM

Lasca nodded. Of course she wouldn't remember, silly if me. Shrugging, she listened to Natka's questions and smiled. "I'm third year Ravenclaw, as I suspect you are as well. Maybe a year or two older then me however, yes?"

She straightened up and showed fully the blue and silver tie that went with her school robes. She proudly displayed her houses colors and loved being in Ravenclaw. It seemed that her two fellow Claws were trying to set the young first years mind at ease about the houses.

Looking at Olena she gave her a kind smile. "Don't worry about what house you will be placed in, whichever one you will be fine. Gryffindor is fun as they are all adventurous and a bit roudy. I know a few of them." She remembered breifly the Head Girl coming in and stopping the fight that might have broken out between Nate and Gabben. Anna was a nice girl. "Ravenclaw's of course are known for their intelligence but we are all pretty nice as well. Hufflepuffs are incredibly friendly and love to make new friends. One of my best friends is a Hufflepuff."

She hadn't seen Sarah yet and hoped that she would show up soon. Lasca hadn't spoken to her since they had departed from the ranch. It had only been two weeks since then but it seemed like forever.

"Slytherin is the last house. I just net a guy in that house and he is very nice. They tend to be very cunning and crafty, as well as having great ingenuity." Okay so that was a longer explanation then she had intended but what can ya do?

Roland couldn't see any people from his year that he recognised. Walking along the train he noticed a group of older looking students. He didn't know them but this was the time to make friends

"Fifth [sixth] year."Pyralis replied. "My bestsfriend is in Gryffindor" Pyralis gave Lasca a look at the nice Slytherin. I guess a few Slythies were nice."Wait and see. We're almost there."

Riverlynn 05-16-2009 07:31 PM

Yeah, thats what I thought too. Chuckling to herself, she decided to change the subject as it seemed to be upsetting the first year.

"Weren't you talking about Quidditch? My best friend was on the Ravenclaw team last year. She wanted me try out for this term."
