Elina walked into a compartment. "Excuse me"She Said"Is there anyone sitting there?" She pointed towards the empty seat.

i noticed another student walk in sit down and start to read his paper
"hmmm i thought he didnt say hello he must be nervous " i put away my book put my hand out and say hello there my name is domino darkheart nice to meet you

"Hi. Mind if I sit with you?"

"Hi! um, no one, youre quite lucky coz its the last space available. Come, sit" Alexi said. "So whats your name?" she added.

"Well.. umm... I'm just starting out as a freshman. I really don't know what's going to happen, what to expect or what to feel," Joch said, smiling halfheartedly. True enough. It was all a surprise. Receiving a mail from an owl and getting all this. Her parents didn't introduce this part of her identity, nor what's really happening. She just went with the flow.

Daise...

If she wasn't already irritated about the new nickname she apparently had and the wink, she would have definitely been irritated by him bringing up the fire incident. No, she had never forgotten that day, and she had been willing a few terms back to forget about it but...

Well, now she changed her mind.

"Maybe I'll take you up on that offer..." she grumbled, finally glaring at him properly now as she continued to cling to Josh. Hmph.

Her gaze flickered over to Marilyn at the mention of the kitten. KITTY! Rafe may have been safe from her glares for now, but there were more important and CUTER things to stare at than a Gryffidork. Like Lock. The third cutest kitty in the WOOOOORLD.

"Poof is around here somewhere." she said, looking over to the little boy kitten, Lock, and completely missing the fact that there was a chocolate frog sitting right there. Either that or she just didn't care. Could one tell? "This is one of Poof's kittens she had this summer."

And...she showed up.

Evelyn had never personally spoken with Caroline, but she had heard plenty of things about her. Of course they were all from Mary, but that didn't matter. The Slytherin girl already had an opinion about the blond snake, and it was going to take work to make Evelyn change her mind.

For now she just...blinked...in a greeting.



It seemed like there was an awkward on and off button turned on somewhere in the next few minutes because Evelyn didn't really know what...was going on...

She had taken the butterbeer that was handed to her, but held it in her lap as she looked from Rafe to Marilyn and back again, eyes narrowing more and more each time. Confused wasn't the right word to describe what she was thinking. No. In fact, she wasn't really thinking about the conversation between the Slytherin and Gryffindor.

Nope. Her brain was full of thoughts on setting the Gryffie on fire, how this butterbeer wasn't even cold, perhaps she and Josh could find a different compartment, and the prospect that she had to show up in a CERTAIN compartment sometime soon. Really, she didn't want Salander to have to be tortured there alone.

"Well, seems like you two are getting along just fine..." she muttered lightly as her gaze slipped over to the train corridor to stare at any passerby, tapping the butterbeer quietly with her fingers. Hmm.

Awkwaaaaaard.

Aurora looked up from the book, "Really? Wow, it's kind of my favourite hobby." she said, closing the book and standing up. "Though with Lafay you'll probably learn pretty quickly," She left out the or else you'll get set on fire part. "I mean, a lot of people have never brewed before Hogwarts." she added. She still failed to see why people disliked potions... She put the book back into her trunk and sat down again, opposite Kennedy.

Aurora nodded, "We're not all bad, it's pretty cool being a Slytherin actually. People seem a little intimidated at first. Especially the first years." she chuckled. "I'm kidding, we're not all bad. What house do you want to be in?" she asked, messing with the sleeve of her cardigan.

Aurora glanced out of the window, it was getting dark. "We're probably nearly there now." she said, searching for any familiar land marks... not that there were any. "We should put our robes on in a bit." she added, absentmindedly.

Fee chuckled a little at Nikolas as she heard his comment.Thee was a girly girl stereo type?Guys did really come up with weird stuff."Ohh i did?",the blonde laughed,"soo whats that stereotype like?"in her eyes everyone was unique,so stereotyping didnt really make sense.We shall see who ins bette on abroom?Nikolas,you are going down."I am on brooms since i've been ,mister",the Slytherin wiggled her eyebrows,"you have nooooo chance.But i happily except."He felt waaayyy to sure of his victory.Tse.Tse.Tse.

The girl laughed along with her friend and raised an eyebrow."You cant get away with teasing me jujst like that",she said crossing he arms ove her chest.Sighing as the fourth year finally managed to get he trunk in the compartment she placed her hands on either side of her hips."Of course i am a strong woman",the girl plopped down,"after all i am a Slytherin.Never undesteminate me."Uhhh that sounded dangerous.Giggle.


He bought school stuff his whole summer?Now come one he couldnt have spent his first diagon alley summe with only boring things like that."No,no,no it was glorious because you now officialy are honoured to hang out with me",Fee wiggled her eyebrows,"be grateful."Of course she was just kidding but this was waayy too much fun. "Did you meet a lot people already?",she asked,"well i hung out with friends and showed transfers around.I am nice like that."Unfortunately not enough time spent with the boyfriend though.

Fee sat in her compartment and sighed happily.Now she was going back to Hogwarts to be a fourth year.Oh my glitter,time was running.Really.Smiling to herself the blonde ran he fingers through her hair and looked out the window.In a few hours they would be there.

She shrieked a little as someone suddenly plopped down in front of her.Woaahh,that must have been deep thoughts.But as the Slytherin saw who it was a huge smile spead on her face."Helloooo there handsome mister",she said grinning.It instantly made her feel happy to see her boyfriend's face.Glitter,he was soo cute.He didnt evn have to do something to make her feel all giddy."Noo you havent",she chuckled,"but i am glad you did now.Thank you."Whenever he was around the girl felt special and she had no idea how he was doing that but she liked it.Really much to be honest."You arent too bad yourself",Fee winked"here i am again wondering how i managed to have such a great boyfriend."

Why was he aplogizing for his paents?Was he crazy?They werent annoying at all."No need to be sorry",the blonde shook her head,"your parents are lovely.They were more than nice to me."It had almost shocked her as Hugo's dad offered her to call him by his first name.That was more than nice."I was sooooo nervous to meet them",Fee nodded,"what if they didnt like me?!"That would be terrible.And Paul probably made a really bad impression."I am sorry about Paul though",the girl sighed,"he gets way to protective."That sucked.A lot.

- Oh yeah, my mom was a Slytherin so I do think I'll be a Slytherin too. My dad is a muggle. He was kind of reluctant to let me come to Hogwarts, he wanted me to have a muggle education but my mom and I convinced him that Hogwarts was the best place to study- she explained. - I know they're not all evil, but I hope people from other houses think that way too, I don't want any enemies because I'm a Slytherin. - Luna continued - What about you? You think you'll be a Slytherin or a Ravenclaw?

"Thanks!" exclaimed Elina. I'm Elina McDonnaldson, What's your's and your friends? And what lesson are you most looking forward to?" Elina was very eager. Hopefully she was about to make some very good friends.

"I'm not as smart as my mom if I belong to Ravenclaw." she said. "When she was fifth year in Hogwarts, she got 10 OWL's and all them were outstanding. While my dad and my brother just have 8 and only 3 lessons were outstanding."

"Well, then James is not the only boy here," Jesifur confirmed. Turned to James she said, "both my mother and my father went to Hogwarts, but I have muggles in my family too. My dad's brother married a muggle, she thinks we just a little crazy, I don't think she knows exactly she is married to a wizard." Jesifur laughed. She took a few of the jelly beans Adanna offered. "There aren't any weird flavors like boogie or earwax are there?" She asked.

Vanessa smiled "Freshman? You mean first year? I'm a fifth year myself. I spent my first years here but then I went to beauxbatons then I was homeschooled. I traveled around a lot but its nice being back at Hogwarts." It was true. This place was like home to her. It was really like going home after a long time.

"Yeah…I can't wait to get there. I can't believe all of this is actually real. Are you like me a first year…no but you look older." she said taking the seat across from Lysandra.

Walnut now sitting pleased as a peach around Kurumi's neck like a furry scarf, the cat felt as though he were once again reigning over the land of humanfolk and Kurumi was already rolling her eyes at the cat. "Just behave yourself in the common room, okay?" she said as she scratched him behind the ears. "I don't want you ruining any of the first year's shoes like you did last term." Or Josh's robes. The cat really needed to learn that just because he was upset at someone did NOT give him the right to relieve himself on anyone.

Now dressed in her Hogwarts robes, which made her prefect badge stand out even more, she began walking around checking to make sure others were getting ready.

"Everyone, you should be changing into your robes soon," Kurumi called in a sing song voice, hoping that her somewhat meek request would catch at least one person's ears.

"I'm not as smart as my mom if I belong to Ravenclaw." she said. "When she was fifth year in Hogwarts, she got 10 OWL's and all them were outstanding. While my dad and my brother just have 8 and only 3 lessons were outstanding."

Melania sat down. "Oh, how comfy she laughed." She started to get herself settled into the compartment. "Hey Tiff, do you mind if I call you Tiff? Did you bring a pet this year?" she asked curiously.

" Hey," Elina said as she walked in the compartment," Can I sit here?"

Simon had been walking down the train looking for either his Girlfriend Ronnie, who he hadn't seen for ages or his idol Kurumi, who he hadn't seen since the end of the last term since he had been out of the country all summer, he was still upset he hadn't been able to go to Diagon Alley but there was always next year.

Simon looked around and then he saw Kurumi eating something and then he was shocked to see she had a prefect badge on, well she could tell him off if she wanted to but he didn't care. "KURUMI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN DID YOU BECOME A PREFECT?" And with saying that he ran all the way upto her and gave her the biggest bear hug he had given anyone. "Congratulations." he said as he finally let her go.

"My names Olivia. Olivia Evans." Olivia replied with a smile. "I wish I had a cat, I wanted to buy one but my sisters allergic so I'd have no where to keep it during the holidays.

It was a shame. Olivia wasn't too fond of animals apart from cats and her sister had to be allergic to them. She supposed an owl would have been nice, but she was afraid of birds, and a toad would have just been icky so she hadn't even considered it.

" Hey," Elina said as she walked in the compartment," Can I sit here?"

Jai left the Prefects compartment as he missed his friends and a certain blonde haired beauty. He reached to the back of the train and looked into the compartment and found who he was looking for. He went in with a bright smile and said,"Hey everyone." He looked at Marilyn and Josh but his smile faltered as he saw Rafe. Then he saw Caroline and went to sit beside her."Hey Caroline." he said.

He could feel it deep in his bones that they were all in for a very intriguing and busy bodied year at Hogwarts. It would mean staying grounded and keeping a level view of everything and everyone.

"Did you get on the train ok?" he quietly asked Caroline.

Sage smiled at the thought.

"Well that's nice," Sge said relaxing into her seat. Just then Sage jumped in her seat as someone's voice travled to her ears....

OOC: See the last quote...
Sage sat in awe and confusion for a minute before finally coming to her senses.

"Wow! Tha's so cool! You can't fly at all? How does this, bike, work? Where did you live in the muggle world?" Sage asked before relizing she might have asked too much,"Sorry!"

Just then a voice traveled down the train...

OOC: See next quote...


"Oh! We must be getting close!" Sage said excitedly. She looked over at all those in ther compartment,"We better get ours on...

Adanna shook her head. "Nope, they're Muggle candy. I think the strangest is popcorn, but this bag is only fruit flavours."
She popped two in her mouth. "Neat, so you're pureblood? First one I've met, though that doesn't say much, considering I've never met a witch or wizard outside my family before. That must be a completely different lifestyle from the one I'm used to! Although, I've caught second-hand glimpses of how it probably is, since my father's family are all purebloods as well. As for my mother . . . she's still not used to the idea of magic. My father was upfront with her about it when they married, but she's very . . . traditional, I suppose you could call it. She prefers to stay out of wizarding places like Diagon Alley and the sort, but she seems alright with the idea of her daughters being witches and all. A bit uneasy at times, but mostly alright. Although, she absolutely despises when my father pulls jokes on her. He enjoys it, however, so he does it often. For instance..." Her voice trailed off a little as she searched the bag of candy for a strawberry flavour, then popped it into her mouth and continued telling the story. "Once, he hexed a bag of regular jellybeans, making the normal flavours taste like the bizarre ones of Bertie Bott's. So she took what she thought was a watermelon and a cherry. She had actually taken a dog food and a horseradish, she assumes. She did not find it humourous at all. Claims it was the most horrid thing she had tasted. Doesn't stop him from overusing that joke, or any other."
Realizing she had probably spoken a bit too much, she asked James, "How does your mother feel about it? Your father being a wizard, I mean."

Cael had just finished changing into his Ravenclaw robes when he heard a slight rustling accompanied by a quiet yawn. Good, Willow was finally waking up, not that he could blame her in the slightest. After all, he himself had napped a bit earlier. It must've had something to do with the gentle rocking motion the Hogwarts Express produced as it sped toward their destination. It was positively irresistible!

"I'm not exactly sure when we'll arrive, but it seemed best to be prepared so I went ahead and changed," Cael shrugged as he tucked his other robes into the Ever-Expanding trunk his guardians had gifted him with. Cael's eyes widened in alarm as he saw Willow get the kind of look in her eye that spelled trouble for men and boys everywhere: the kind of doe-eyed, I'm-about-to-cry-but-am-holding-it-together look. He hurried to reassure her whilst tucking a strand of hair behind her ear. "Not much," he admitted softly, "A friend of mine, Faina Malfoy, dropped by for a bit and introduced me to one of her friends. Of course, we did only just meet on the platform a bit earlier, but I haven't really met many other people."

"Ah, I'm a Pureblood as well. I must admit that I thought I'd have fit in better with the house of snakes myself, especially with what I'm trying to accomplish," Cael heaved a deep sigh, suddenly feeling a hundred years older. He hadn't told anyone yet about his past. Maybe it was time to finally confide in another? "Willow," he started with what he hoped was a firm voice, "I am the last of the Ashdown line. My parents... they... passed on and my father was an only child. I'm positive that branches of the line still exist, but the direct line- my line, is almost extinct. It's up to me to restore our family name. Sometimes, it all seems like too much..."

Cael was glad she had called him a friend. He wasn't one to mince words with people and when he found someone he truly liked, he started to automatically treat them as a friend. "I think the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tables as positioned next to one another from what I've read about Hogwarts so maybe we could still sit across from each other," Cael laughed before all color drained out of his face and his laughter shriveled up in his throat.

Jupiter. Oh Merlin, she was petting Jupiter. The nastiest, meanest, most foul-tempered little rodent in the entire world was about to be touched by one of his only friends! He darted toward her with a strangled choking noise, intending to rip her fingers away from him before he hurt her, only to stop with his arm outstretched awkwardly.

Purring. Jupiter was actually purring! Cael could hardly pass an hour without getting a scratch or a bite from the little cretin and here Willow had reduced him to a squirming, purring mass of fluff. "He- he's never let anyone, and I mean anyone, touch him before," Cael spoke with awe, "You must be really special, Willow. Are you planning on doing something related to the care of magical creatures?"
