Reese wandered towards the back of the train, after leaving Wesley and Jack for a little bit. She was hoping to run into some longtime friends, so she can catch up with them. It's not that she didn't like talking to Jack about NASA or to Wesley about Lima and the Lemurs, but- there was just some things that they wouldn't understand, that old friends would. Like, how she missed Lima and Whitney so much, Jack and Wesley didn't know who they were, so what was the use of talking about it to them?

She wandered down the halls, deeply sighing. Maybe she should just head back up to her compartment, since she couldn't find anybody to talk to. Plus, all the compartments back here were WAY too crowded for their own good. Who knew a compartment could hold so many?

She made it the end of the train and turned around on her heels. Yes, she was going to head back to her compartment with Jack and Wesley. She headed back up towards the front of the train, but, then- stopped. Was that...Shana? She turned back around and headed over to one of the compartments she passed earlier and glanced inside. A grin formed on her face when she saw Shana sitting in the compartment. Before she did anything, she glanced down at her outfit, smoothing out the end of her shirt.

Then, she opened the door and walked inside, closing the door behind her. No need to ask if she can join her, Shana was like her little sister, she knew she was more than welcome to join her. She walked over to her friend and sat down next to her.

"Hello there," she told her with a little smile, "what's up?"

"Um..." Aaron said feeling his pocket, "Ah Ha!" He took out a pencil and paper. "Here, i'll write it down." He looked at the potion and wrote down what they would need for it. "There we go!" He put the piece of paper back in his pocket. "It will be so cool once it's done."

OOC: I'm so sorry guys, but I have to go. I'll be back later. Just act like Aaron is doing something like writing a letter to send to his parents.

"Okay here you go,"Mystic handed Aaron the book to write the potion out.

Ooc: PM I can give any one the potion that was done for the fireworks potion if anyone wanted it.

Shana glanced out the window.She missed everyone,all her friends had left,Sakura was gone for a few terms,Lima was gone like litterally forever and she didn't know when she'd see her again,Jack and John were dead,Her life just seemed like it was falling to peices one by one.She sighed and looked out onto the busy corridor and turned her attention to her new pet dog.

Suddenly,the door slide open and Reese walked in.Shana turned her head slightly gave a little smile and turned it back.Hi. she shrugged.Nothing much and you ? she smiled and leaned on Reese's shoulder.

"It is, we have stable hands that take care of the horses. Mostly house elves." Thinking about the placement she answered "I would like to be in Slytherin as my family has been, besides a few Ravenclaws. I think I remember there was one Gryffindor aswell. But it's many many years ago." Looking at how Leticia managed to make her robes more fitting she grinned and noticied the laugh at the end of her last answer "What's so funny?"

Iris looked at Aaron and gave him a small smile back, "and what, pray tell, does an eleven year old boy have in his mind that he wouldn't want the headmaster to know about?" she asked, quirking an eyebrow, folding her arms and smirking at him.

" oh, I'll write it down too - might as well all have it, right?" she said cheerfully, hoping to get back on track with Mystic.

She could feel him move a little. "Are you okay?" she asked quietly, opening one eye and glancing down. He appeared to be looking for something in his pocket. Well, as long as he wasn't getting up, he could look for anything he wanted, as far as Kiri was concerned. She closed her eye again. The world went dark - she was sure now that she could indeed feel Raiden's heart beat. The thumps it made felt a little strange, but then again, she'd never really felt someone else's heart before. She shifted her hand slightly, moving it closer. She wanted to feel his heartbeat stronger.

The weight of his head on her lap lessened slightly. What was he doing? Kiri considered looking again, but at that moment, she could hear Vanessa say her name, and the words that followed it - those were the ones that would make her blush again, especially right now, and she didn't want to see if Vanessa had another knowing smile on her face, as she was sure to have after such a comment. She made do with nodding silently. Yes, he would have her.

Reese leaned back in her seat, crossing her legs,and then ran her fingers through her long blond hair. She has been thinking about dying her hair back to brunette, but- it was such a hard choice. She loved being a brunette, yet, she missed her blond hair when her hair was dyed. After thinking about her hair and what color she wanted it to be, she arrived at the conclusion that she would keep it blond.

She looked back over at Shana, when the little girl finally spoke up. She raised her eyebrow slightly, when she heard the sort of sadness in the girl's voice. Siiiiigh. The last time she talked to Shana, she was also sad. She still didn't know what was up with the girl, but when Shana finally wanted to tell her, then she would know. She wasn't going to force answers out of her. That wouldn't be nice.

"Ehhhh- same. There isn't much to do on the train ride to school. But, I have met my bodyguard Cale has assigned to me. He's name is Jack Fritzera," she explained. "I also met this sweet little first year girl named Wesley. She's just to cutest little thing."

"Who know maybe we will make it in potions this year. It looks like it is not a hard potion to fallow," Mystic saying with a little excitement in hopes of them making it in class.

"yeah, your right... I don't think wewill be trying this potion this year in class though... after all, we are all just first years - the professors will probably think that we can't handle the good stuff like this - but i know we are more than capable!" she said and smiled. 'gosh half an hour ago, you were saying next to nothing Mystic and now it's you, Satine who isn't saying anything! come one, surely you have something to say in the matter? "

Shana sighed.She didn't know what was wrong with her.She stood up and got her puppy from his cage,was it mean to keep a puppy in a cage ? weren't they suppose to be kept in kennels ? Shana didn't have enough room for a kennel in her trunk and she certainly wasn't going to try and carry one that would just be stupid.A bodyguard ? What kind of person has a body guard ? You obvisouly.she smirked.She got her puppy out and put him on her lap then sat back down and placed her head comfortable on Reeses shoulder.Shana hated it when her and Reese were all like weird,and all over a boy?! she shrugged.Reese meant the world too Shana.She was Her Role model.She smiled and petted her dog.He was soo darn adorable she was glad she'd brought him.

"Mmmhmm, Miss Reese Selena Upstead has a bodyguard. I told you Cale was overprotective of me...and Anna, because Jack is also Anna's bodyguard," Reese told Shana. It was true. Cale was the only person who would freak out if she got a boyfriend, well, him and Jake. Jake wouldn't really freak out, he would go off and hurt her boyfriend. She felt sorry for whoever her boyfriend would be, they would have two guys after them.

"I really want to say Jack is going to have a hard time keeping control of me, since I like to get in trouble- but, if word gets back to Cale that I'm getting in trouble or something. I'm going to be the one receiving a letter from him. I sort of made a promise to him that I wouldn't get into anymore trouble," she said while fumbling around with her thumbs, "I'm going to be on best behavior this term, to show people that I can be a goodie two shoes or whatever you calls those people who NEVER get into trouble"

Haha. This won't last long. If Cam gets Reese mad, then she wasn't going to be the nicest person around. she wasn't afraid to bite Cam...again.

"Anyways, enough about Cale and his over protectiveness. Have you met any new people on the train ride?" She asked, hoping to change the subject.

Shana smiled and listened to Reese.Umm- I'd soo hate having someone following me around all the time,I'd probably end up getting annoyed with them telling them to get lost and smack there nose.she smirked.Reese had never seen Shana angry acctually no one had and it was a bit to earlier for anyone to start hating her yet.She smiled.Weell If he annoys you,You and Anna can Deck him.she laughed.I was only Joking.Be clear of that.She didn't want Reese trying to deck the poor little boy Cale had sent to try and protect her and his girl-friend,then Reese would certainly be getting a letter from Cale and mabye Shana would too,for like telling them to deck him buut Shana knew Reese wouldn't do that,well At least she thought she knew Reese wouldn't.I wish I'd have got to the chance to meet Cale,He sounds nice.she smiled.

She bit her lip.Well I kind of met new people,This dude told us his name then I didn't hear him much again,See Raiden was ill so we were all fousing on him.And I met this girl Umm- what was her name Daphne something Umm- Hopton or something like that.she shrugged.Oh then There was this boy that I didn't really like,I thought he was trying to poision me,he offered everyone a club house sandwhich.I thought he'd put something in them. she nodded.Then he tried to give Raiden some poition buut Vannie,and Kiri wouldn't let him,Vannie took it off him.And I thought that was poision too.she nodded and leaned on Reese's shoulders again.Shana liked leaning on peoples Shoulders,and Reese's Shoulder well her arm was comfy.She smiled and Stroked her dog.

"...superhero with her badge on." <---lol, Tisha
 

Anna smiled politely when Paris greeted her. She'd always liked the Slytherin girl, and she was still grateful for her assistance in saving the poor, regressed professors last term. "Thanks for the offer, but I'm just passing by. I'm on Head Girl rounds," she said, although she was pretty sure that little fact was fairly obvious right about now. At least Paris and her friend---boyfriend?---were being polite about this encounter. "Thank you, Paris. I'll see you two around."

Anna smiled at Paris' friend, as well. He seemed just as nice as Paris had been, and for that, Anna was grateful. "Anna Greingoth," she said, picking up on the fact that the boy was asking for name. "It's nice to meet you, too, Steven." She watched while Paris and Steven turned to walk away. Turning back to those still remaining in the compartment, Anna gave a polite wave goodbye. "I'll see you around, as well." She then backed out the compartment and continued on her way.

"Ever glad to see me? Is something the matter, Lyra?" Anna asked, following her into the compartment. Maybe Lyra was just excited to see her, though. The two of them were really close friends, after all. "Well, I'm excited to see you, too, Lyra. We've got to make the most of our last school year, you know. I'm counting on you to help me keep the year fun and exciting!" She smiled and waved to the people Lyra was greeting. "Hello," she said, echoing Lyra. Within minutes, Lyra became busy chatting away with a few of the young ones. "I'll see you around, Lyra," she said.

"Yes, it is quite different, isn't it? I can't believe this is the end of Hogwarts for me," she said, shaking her head a bit sadly. "I still can't decide whether I'm sad or excited, though. I think...maybe...I'm both." She giggled a little, and a small thought of Cale popped up in her mind. How she would have loved to have him here today. He would have been so proud of her giving that Head Girl speech back there in that prefect's compartment. She'd been a nervous wreck, but she hoped it hadn't been too noticeable.

Anna blinked and refocused on the conversation, laughing a little as Katie protested the very idea of she and Legend being boyfriend and girlfriend. Oddly enough, though, Katie sounded a bit like Anna did when she once protested all thoughts of she and Cale being a couple. As most everyone well knew, her protests ended up being all for nothing, as she and Cale ended up discovering they were one another soulmate. "I see. A boy...and a friend. So a boyfriend, yet not quite in the manner I meant it," she replied. "You know, Katie, as you get a bit older, you start to see that the boys who pick on you when you are younger end up being the boys who have crushes on you as you get older. I'd keep an eye on this Legend fellow if I were you." Ahhh, to be a first year. "One day, you're going to appreciate all these boys hanging out with you..."

--------------------

Yes ma'am? Ma'am? He called her ma'am? Wow. Anna glanced down at her Head Girl badge in wonder. For a brief moment, she felt all-powerful and mighty, as if the badge on her chest allowed her to be some sort of Super Woman. She knew that wasn't true, though. At the end of the day, despite all the duties she had as Head Girl, she was just any 'ole normal Hogwarts student. She smiled at the boy, grateful he hadn't caused a scene. "Thank you. Have a nice day," she said, smiling again before heading off in the opposite direction.

"Hmph," Aaron said folding his arms and giving a quirky smile. "You don't think I can have secrets?"

"And now of course," Aaron said leaning back in his chair, "We HAVE to make this potion just to prove it to ourselves that we can do it. Which we can." Aaron looked at Satine who WAS quiet. She hadn't said anything fr a while.

Reese sighed. It would be awkward to have someone following you around all the time. Hopefully, Jack wouldn't follow her around everywhere. That would irritate her, because she liked her space. "Awwww, I wouldn't smack Jack in the nose. That would be mean," she said, frowning slightly. She shook her head when Shana mentioned punching Jack. She couldn't do that! First, Jack was too nice to her. Second, Jack didn't seem like the type of person who would win in a fight. She nodded her head when Shana said Cale seemed like a nice person. "He is a nice person," she told her with a smile.

She tried to take in everything Shana was saying. Raiden...sick. Shana...and a club sandwich, which she refused to eat. Vannie and Kiri...potion...poison? "Wow..." she trailed off, blinking a few times. That's all she could say, other than that, she was speechless.

Cayden gave elizabeth a smile as she greeted him. He let the two talk as he never took part really in their conversation. their wasnt much point. they would talk about girly things and more things he didnt want to hear about. If they wanted him to hear something they would make sure of it. Oh he would hear it.

He listened to the two nag him about things over the summer. He felt a little bad for him as he wondered why he was so upset with elizabeth in the first place."Im sure they would of healed up by now. Those shoe shaped bruises." he told mari as he stuck up for seth in his own way.It was uneven. He might as well join and make it even.Though it would of been nice to know what had started it all. He looked to mari as he saw that she had given him a smile. He returned it as he turned his attention over to the two. He wondered what was going to happen in their compartment today. He was hoping for some peace and quiet, but he had a feeling it wasnt going to happen.

Shana smiled and blinked.Umm Okay.She shrugged.Umm- Did you meet any- she cut herself off,Reese had already told her that she'd met some knew people.She clinged to Reese as hard as she could,she didn't want any of these new cuter firsties stealing her Reese.She was hers.Everyone else had already left her well not everyone but everyone was drifting away one by one,It would be Vannie and Miles next.Then Hugo,then Reese.The thought of this made Shana sad.This is why She didn't have friends back home.She didn't bother to try and make any,everytime she made a friend they left her and her brother couldn't leave her they were twins! But this time was different.This time she was in a school far away from home and she was by herself.She needed friends.And everything she expected to happen hadn't happend,everything she didn't want to happen had happened it wasn't the best year for her last year.She hoped this year would be better.Then Shana realised the silence was biig and she decided to let Reese know something and break the silence.Umm Reese,Your my Role-Model.she smiled and loosend her grip on Reeses waist.

Crystal, Khat, and Kristin. :3
 

LOL!! Noo Legend/Katie xD
 

Katie nodded excitedly, understanding exactily what Anna meant. Or so she believed. "Like when you want to try something for the first time but it's scary too, like riding a bike without training wheels or going on a roller coaster!" To be in the mind of an eleven year old, what joy.

Kaitlynnh Gelilah Cantara Kayleigh Mae never ever ever ever EVER wanted to hear the words 'Legend' and 'Boyfriend' in the same sentance ever again, especially being uttered in a conversation to her, no matter HOW it was meant. That was absolutely revolting, Legend.. and NO. In his dreams. No, Legend and Mat and Cy and Will were all boys that happened to be her friends, there for 'boys that are her friends'. Not boyfriends. Jae and Danny too, except they're her cousins as well. "I don't think so. There's three of them, and all the boys and girls at my old school our age do that; it's like a game." Katie explained, her childish mind making her believe that maybe Anna had forgotten what it was like to be an eleven year old. The boys picked on her, yes, but she didn't let them go that easily. It was a routine of theirs, a game, part of being little. "I can't escape Legend even if I wanted to. Our families are close friends, we get thrown together alot." She added, her nose wrinkling once again. She was never going shopping with him again, no matter what anyone had to say about it.

She would appreciate the boys being around, one day? "Why do you say that?" Katie asked shyly, shifting to place her head on her folded hands. It was unfortunate Anna would only be around for this term, and gone the next.

Reese looked around the compartment then back to Shana. It was weird how one moment it was really talkative in here, then the next minute it was really quiet. But- quietness isn't all that bad. It gave you time to thing about stuff.

Wait.

She looked at Shana, her mouth opened and she looked clueless. Did Shana just say she was her role model? That was so sweet, yet, she didn't think she'd make a good role model. Especially with her temper and everything. "That's...sweet," she finally said, smiling.

Satine caught herself gazing out of the window looking at the scenery and came back from her daydream and realized she had missed a whole conversation. She must have been daydreaming about getting to the castle and getting sorted and Quidditch matches and who knows what else. She looked around at the three other first years and smiled again trying to catch up with the conversation she had. She could sense that there had been some kind of tension that she had missed....maybe it was a good thing she went into daydream land at that moment.

She looked at the paper in Aaron's hand and pulled out a paper to copy down the potion thinking it was time to get to Hogwarts...there is only so long you can sit in a little compartment with everyone being nice to each other even if they are friends. She decided it was time to inject some optimism in the compartment by changing the subject.

"So....have ya'll met any other first years? Any that we should stay away from? Do you know any upperclassmen?" She hoped this subject would cut the tension a little bit. If not, she could always ask if anyone wanted anything from the food trolly because Aaron was definitely almost out of cauldron cakes and that might give her the opportunity to meet some more first years.

OOC: Sorry I have family coming in so I had to clean the house...I know boo! =0]

you called Shana Chloe XD
 

Shana smiled.She was starting to feel uncomfortable with all the quiet it was all weird and stuff.She shuddered and smiled.Umm- Soo At my house, You said something about you and Cam ? You still havn't told me ? Shana wanted to know,it probably wasn't that much worth knowing.Buut then again mabye it was.Cam and Reese weren't dating,were they ? That would be kind of awkward like more awkward than her Liking Jake,her role model and one of her best friends dating.She shrugged and gave her a hug.
