Conan saw Ellie and felt that she might need help, it's true that he is a first year too . but still , he might help her , so he headed to her and asked : " hey , i'm Conan , do you need help ? i can carry the cage for you if you like "

"Oh!" Ellie said, surprised, for she hadn't been looking for someone to help her with the cage. "I'm fine, thank you. I'm Ellie, are you a first year too? This is my snowy owl Godric, by the way." The owl hooted softly. Ellie smiled at Conan. "I've been walking all up and down the train. I'm so excited, I wish we were there now! Don't you?"

N'aaaaw. Torin seemed so much nicer when there was no one else around, she liked it. Sylvia smiled, she would get cake off Brody's mother and now Torin! SCCOORE. "Wow. And just to let you know, I like Victoria sponge, or anything with strawberry jam in it." Sylvia winked at him. A big obsession with strawberry, but they were yummy.

"Professor Bunbury?" Sylvia smrirked, she now knew who Torin's crush was. But she had a funny feeling that everyone knew anyway, so it wouldn't be as much fun as she expected. It ws old news now that she was starting Hogwarts, it had probably been around for ages. Bet Torin didn't like that. HAHA. "Well, you can admire her with limits." Sylvia wondered if baking her things and buying her things was crossing the line.

Sylvia nodded. "Nothing wrong with being popular." She was rather popular when it came to back home, though she wasn't sure about here. She just needed the right connexions. "Oh good. Though it must feel nice that people .. kinda fight over you?" They'd been through this before, but Torin hadn't really understood. Hehe.

With her face still smooshed up against the cold window, Sammi nodded.
"I cannot wait! I promised my mom I would be the best witch ever and fly as high as I can...without passing out from lack of oxygen!" She giggled at the thought of free falling.
"But the best part is I get to hang out with Nate again!"
Turning she gave Nate a HUGE Sammi grin. About to say something else, she got distracted by some sheep in a passing field.
Sammi smooshed her face to the window again, warm breath creating wet clouds on the glass.

" No problem" said Conan , " yes i'm a first year too , and you have a nice Owl " he touched Godric's beak then continued , " i'm excited too ,and we'll be there soon. , umm * he was a little shy* what house are you in ? "

Sara was wandering toward the back of the train, when she saw a girl, about her age, reading a book.

"Hi!" said Sara. "My name is Sara. What's yours?"

ooc: ... most narrate in the third person. Have fun!

"Thanks," Ellie said. Godric hooted when Conan touched his beak, the owl loved having a fuss made over him. "Hey, I think Godric likes you! Do you like Conan, Godric? I'm in Gryffindor!" Ellie beame. "Just like Daddy and all his family! What about you?"

Elli woke up. There was about.. 3 sleeping girls. She was the only one awake.
"Hey.. Do you sleep?" She asked dumbly.
Nobody replied. So they really slept.
"Would you mind if I would try some spells?"
Nothing. "Okay, no answer, also an answer," Ellie said one of her mother´s favorite sentences.
She pulled out one charms-book quietly.
"Ehm ehm," she cleaned her throat while browsing the book. "Ah, here."
She raised hand with her wand and said quietly "Lumos." The wand did a little pow and shined a little, but turned off at once. "Damn."
So Elli tried it again and again, while others were asleep.

" i like him too , haha ," giggled Conan "oh Gryffindor ! i'm in Slytherin just like my Parents too " smiled conan proudly , " a pure blood then ?"

"Well..." Jake stalled for a moment, frowning in concentration. It had happened a few times... he'd not taken the stuff... and then he'd... "I... can't remember," the mumbled, screwing up his face in concentration. "But... I just know it ain't pretty. Those are the ones during the day. I hate the night ones, because they usually make me sleepy and I don't like being sleepy, you know?"

Of course she did. Everyone always knew what Jake was talking about.

Right?

Looking at Sabrina in sudden confusion, Jake tilted his head to the side. Had he not mentioned he was talking about something else now? "No... In my first year, a kid tried strangling me, so I felt for the first year up the train. Couldn't watch that happen."

Ellie sensed Conan's proud tone when he told her he was in Slytherin. Well, this didn't surprise her, she knew most Slytherins were proud of their pure blood status. "No," Ellie said. "I'm half blood. Mummy was in Ravenclaw, and she was muggle-born. Were most of your family also Slytherins?"

Warren handed Lucy a chocolate frog. ''Here you go'' he said. He could see that he had put a big smile on her face once mentioning 'Chocolate Frogs' that made me want to smile more!

Warren laughed, ''Girls aye? pack to much!'' he chuckled. Warren had finished loading the last bag and sat down next to Lucille. ''I use to collect those cards, until i lost them all'' he said stretching out his arms and legs.

Natka listened to Lizzie's story, feeling strongly for her friend. It must have been horrible, having her parents divorce like that... and John running away? That really didn't sound like the boy she'd heard about from Lizzie in the previous years. People changed, though, Natka knew that.

"I'm sorry to hear that, Lizzie, I really am," she said, giving her friend's hand a squeeze. "As for me... not much happened this summer, I spent a lot of time in Russia talking to my cousin, she just discovered she was a wtich last year and so she was full of curiosity about the magical world. Vera, you know? I think I might have menitoned her to you... she'd going to start school this year, but back in Russia, somewhere in St. Petersburg I think."

Hmm, and what could she tell Lizzie about Clark? She didn't even know if they were still together. Last time she'd seen him was before the end of the year, she barely had a chance to say goodbye to him on the train ride back home.

"Clark and I are... well, let's just say we weren't really in close contact this summer, I don't know where we stand. I was hoping to run into him somewhere here, but I haven't seen him yet," she admitted quietly, makking sure no one els ein the compartment overheard. This was her personal life, after all, and she wasn't up to sharing it with a bunch of strangers, no matter how friendly they might have looked.

Natka wasn't really that trusting.

"I'll keep that in mind," he said laughing at how she was assuming that he would bake her a cake just like that. "But if I bake you a cake, you have to do something for me." He smirked, having fun with giving her a hard time.

"She's the Herbology Professor. And the only reason I made her the Baked Alaska is because she dared me to." He had a feeling that Sylvia assumed that he did that 'cause of his crush on her. And while that was true that he did like her, that wasn't why he made her the dessert. He didn't want her telling Brody and making her think that things were more than they really were.

"And I still don't get why people fight over me. I'm not that great." He shrugged.

“I just love these chocolates have a collection of them”. Lucy saw Lucille and was very happy to see her, she thought that our names almost sounded like the same, she wondered whether when would the train reach Hogwarts, as she was very excited about the feast and had heard that it’s a big hall and you can see the sky as the roof thinking that she could not wait for long for the train to stop so she asked Lucille whether she had the same feeling and waiting for the train to stop but it was sure that all might be waiting for the same thing rather than those who weren’t in the first year.

Song watched as the prefect stood up and added another poster beside the one on the door, her dark eyes wide with slight curiousity. Don't blame Lupa! It wasn't her fault! Werewolves feel too! she read as he sat back down in his seat. It seemed there was definitely going to be a heated debate this term about werewolves and there place in the world. At least she knew she would be voting pro-werewolf. Going anti would just be cruel.

And then she listened, Chris's words swarming her mind as he spoke. So Professor Lupa was the Ancient Runes professor. And she had had the idea of holding an assembly to show childeren about werewolves. Interesting... But of course, it all went wrong. She only wished she could have been there. A little excitment in her life wouldn't do her any harm. "Yes, I think you're right," she said, with a small nod, "I think her potion was tampered with. If my knowledge of this school is right, and from what you've said, I don't think Professor Lupa would've attacked the students knowingly," She paused before continuing, "Was the person who tampered with the cage and wolfsbane caught?" she asked, pushing her glasses back up her nose.

Song watched as another girl entered the compartment and gave her a small, shy smile. The compartment was getting pretty full. There must've been about seven people in here now. She wondered who was going to deny the next person who came along entry. "Thanks," she said, with a small, but friendly grin. She appreciated the girl's offer to help. She would most probably need it, especially since she would be too scared to ask anyone else she bumped into once she set foot in the castle.

"I learnt english from my father," she said, in answer to Lizzie's question. "He's British, you see, and moved over here from Korea when he was six. He met my mother and moved back to Korea with her when they were both in their thirties. When I was seven he started to teach me english. He believed it would come in useful someday. Little did he know that it most certainly would," Her eyes travelled to the window. They were passing over a large bridge, the clouds dotted with orange and purple. "My dad's a muggle. He was pretty surprised when he found out about mum and me. When I turned his hair orange after an argument, accidentally of course, mum had to tell him," She grinned softly; the sunset reflecting in her dark and curious eyes.

"yes they are , most of them were Slytherins " said Conan trying to sound modest . he was thinking about another subject to talk about because he didn't want Ellie to feel that he's arrogant , then he said " your mother was celever of curse to be a Ravenclaw"

Emma was bored, so she walked and listened others´ conversation. A boy with a girl held her interest. She stopped for a second and listened - the boy has just talked about his family. She decided and walked in.
"Hi.. Can I join? My friends are asleep.." Emma said and pointed to next compartment. "By the way, I´m Emma, or Elli - haha, another name problem, I see, I met one Emma today, and now one Ellie!" added and smiled.

"What house where you sorted into." She asked.

So she did enjoy the hit, was it? So she could smirk like that easily? She'd see it when she was hexed two times at lone school corridors. She'd see it when she had nobody but Evan to help her. But Evan'd firstly laugh, then help. Yes, he was grudging, but he wasn't evil. He'd cast her a simple spell that could easily be reversed. He looked forward to that moment.

He chuckled at the bird. He had left his cat at home, for he thought it'd be hard to look after him. Maybe next year, he'd bring him too.

His smile even widened when she asked why he hadn't cursed her. "Well Lyra, you're a girl and I'm a boy. Do the math." Of course he wouldn't talk about his plans, not yet. He just looked smiling politely at her, and didn't give anything away. At least he hoped he didn't, unless Lyra did that mind-reading. His mind was full of prank plans now.

He didn't understand why Lyra suddenly got cold. He couldn't remember any moment of coldness from Lyra, besides the unfortunate arguement he had with Joshua. Seriously, where was he..?

Evan didn't comment further on werewolves, Lyra sounded like 'case-closed', and there was nothing to talk further. He shrugged in his mind, and listened to rest of her comment.

Soo, she heard the accident. Yes, it was a sad one. And it didn't look like an accident, but as a second-year he didn't talk. What did he knew to talk of? Just gossips and blah blahs... He just nodded, suddenly sad too. As he was looking blankly to the floor thinking rather than watching Lyra, he didn't see the tears. And he was glad that he didn't, because he didn't know how to soothe someone, especially a girl. He sucked with girl issues. His mind again went to Lyra and Fallon, and he yet again wondered where Fallon was. His pain had eased but he was still angry with Lyra, and he wanted Fallon's calmness.

He snapped back to reality when Lyra said something. His mind now went to that day, and he frowned while trying to remember, but nothing came. He hadn't listened to them, he was again busy with his revenge. Rolling eyes at that, he turned to Lyra and said "I didn't really listen to them." 'I was busy with my plans.' he completed in his mind. "So I don't know, though if he said such a sentence... what else could it mean?" He shrugged, not really caring about him. He then heard Lyra saying the man scared her. He chuckled. "Well well Lyra, everything has a payback, or more trendy, karma. You scared me, he scares you." He chuckled again. Both were very irrelevant, but he could make the connection. He was clever!

"Like I said, I believe it was a freak accident,Mariel. I highly doubt that anything will happen again." he didn't want to argue with her. Not now. Not in front of people or ever. He didn't have a problem with werewolves being in Hogwarts.

"I'm good standing. We'll all be sitting forever at the Welcoming Fest. You know that." he said with a smile. It really wasn't anything against Sarah.

MMMMM.

Sylvia was excited, he'd be the judge of if Torin was good at baking or not. But, she had an idea that he was, even if he didn't look like the type to bake. "I ... umm ..." Sylvia thought about this, she wasn't sure if this was a good situation to get in, but she smirked back at him as he smirked at her, maybe it was. "... alright then." Sylvia glanced at the kitten again, wondering whether it could understand them

Probably not.

"Herbology? And don't tell me that you do loads of gardening to get her to notice you or something?" Sylvia snickered, that would be hilarious. She wondered if Miles did extra animal care without Vannie knowing so he could see Professor Morgan more. She HAD to tell her. "Dared you to. Raaaaight. And you don't turn down dares?" She giggled again, it seemed as though he would do anything for her.

Sylvia shrugged. "I don't know you enough to say. But I'm sure you are great." She winked, that was really all she had heard from by Brody. He's great, he's grogeous, he's so caring, he's lovely.

"Okay then! That's settled. Keeping in mind that I have no idea what you would have to do for me in return." Not that that really mattered. Honestly he was just playing with her really. He would make her a cake and now really need anything in return. "But I'm fooling with you, so it doesn't really matter anyway."

"I might ave pulled weeds in the greenhouses once," he replied vaguely. "But that's only 'cause they were making the place look bad." He was not a suck up. Though he did get points for it. hehe. "And no, I don't turn down a dare. Or at least not when my crush laughs at me and tells me that she doesn't think I could do any good. I want to show her up."

"And you're going off of Brody again, aren't you? What has she been gossiping about now?" He shook his head and started to pet the kitten. It was so cute.

Sara sat patiently waiting for Drew to return from the food trolley. He'd been gone quite awhile now. She wondered what the hold-up was? Her stomach growled as she waited.

Mystic looked at the window and saw that it is getting dark. She then looked at the girls in the compartment and said "I think we are going to be at Hogwarts station soon. While Aaron is at the food trolley we should change into our school robes."
She then walked over to the door locked it and put the blinds down. After that she went to her trunks unstrapped them, opened up the small top trunk. for being so small it was big on the inside. She took out her school clothes and robes and started to change.
