Second - Seventh Year Carriages While Hogwarts' newly minted graduates are departing for the train platform in the usual first-year boats, the rest of the school will be heading toward the Hogwarts Express via carriage. These are the same carriages that brought you, with the obvious exception of the first years (who are henceforth known as second years), to the school on your first day. They are round, black, and seat about four students. The carriages also appear to move along on their own, with an invisible something inside the harnesses... |
SARAH and anyone else who wants to join :) This was it... she was leaving for summer holiday. HUZZAH! Addy couldn't sit still she was so excited to be getting out of there. And maybe a little sad DEEP DOWN because she wasn't sure if she was coming back. She had one particular person in mind as she let her eyes sweep the surrounding area... She hadn't seen Milton since he DIDN'T get eaten and well, she wanted to speak to him in private before they got on the train. SIGHS. IF he even popped up around here. BOUNCE BOUNCE BOUNCE. |
Ronnie made her way over where all the carriages were, skipping as she went. She was so excited to get back home and see her family! Eeeeeep! And the train ride would be totally awesome, as always. Once she reached the carriages, she looked around to see if any of her friends were already on some...but it seemed that not many students were here yet. She frowned. Looked like she was a little bit earlier than everyone. She climbed up onto an empty carriage and plopped down into the seat. She sighed and looked around, hoping to see at least one of her friends show up. She squinted out where she had came from, but didn't see anyone. What was taking everyone so looong? |

Minerva walked slowly down to the carriages. Looking back at the castle, she was so ready for a break but at the same time she always hated leaving. This place had become more of a home then anywhere else in the last few years. She hadn't lived in one place since her first year, so this was the only stable place Minerva had. She noticed that not many were there yet, maybe everyone else was feeling as slow as she was about leaving. Minerva then saw a familiar face and walked over. "Hey Ronnie, mind if I sit with you?" Pulling her self up on the carriage she took a seat. "So what's the first thing you are going to do when you get back?" Minerva knew exactly the first few things she was going to do and she couldn't wait. |
For Dani Today was a sad day. Lily ,dressed in her Ravenclaw robes even though she was going home, trudged along pulling her heavy trunk behind her. Her broom, a gift from Louisa, was resting on her shoulder. As she reached the carriages, she placed her broom within before putting her trunk with the others. The former third year then climbed into the carriage and slung her bag between her feet and waited to start moving, even though there was no one else in the carriage with her yet. |

Maxwell walked to the carriages. He wasn't sure how he felt about this, the year ending. Part of him was excited to head home, for the next year to start. But at the same time he was very against going him. His father would have his other son soon...mehh But he longed to ride his horse, Ringo. Talk to his stepmother...see his sister, Tabby. He just wasn't sure. Summer with Elliot so close to him sounded great. She was his escape..and it seemed he was hers. His cat, Tiberius following along.. |

"Hi, Minnie," he smiled at the girl seated in the carriage he had approached, then his eyes fell on her companion. "And Ronnie.. hello," he added, greeting the Gryffindor also seated there. "You don't mind if I join you both?" Ethan asked before climbing up and into their carriage, taking a seat next to Minerva. |

Looking at the other carriages she noticed Taylor and just looked away, pity they were not speaking, but in time they probably would. "I'm thinking of sitting in the middle of the train this time if that's alright with you." She always sat in on the back of the train, but with the recent drama between her and Maxwell and now with her and Taylor, it was best for a new place. |
Quote:
"Hey, Minnie!" she said. She then nodded. "Yeah, of course you can." she replied with a smile, watching as Minnie climbed up and sat down. What was she gonna do when she got back? Eh, she wasn't really sure. "Not sure." she said, shrugging. "You?" she asked. She glanced around the carriages around her and noticed a familiar person walking around...Taylor. She then remembered what Taylor had said about everything with Minerva...Ronnie looked back at Minnie, deciding she'd talk about it with her on the train. Quote:

Ronnie shook her head at Minerva's question. "Nope, not anymore." she said. Huh, Ronnie could have sworn she had told Minerva about her new family... ...Aparently not. "This new family adopted me last year. They're real nice...you'll have to meet them sometime." Ronnie explained with a smile. |

Shrugging to himself, Ethan leaned back in his seat and stretched his legs out in front of him. "How do you think you fared on your OWLs, Ronnie?" he asked his fellow fifth year before lightly covering a yawn with one hand. Ehh.. why was he so tired this early in the day? Oh right.. he had failed to get his morning espresso from the kitchen in all the excitement of the day. Maybe he'd just close his eyes for a few minutes and let the girls talk. |
Sorry for the short post lol. Quote:

anyone want to join Addie?? So this was it...the end of Addie's second to last term at Hogwarts. With a sigh she stepped up into an empty carriage careful not to trip over her own feet. Sitting on the end that was closest to the School she looked out and stared at the school that she loved. Why did she have to leave? Even if it was just for a summer it meant that she was getting just that much closer to graduating. And Addie didn't want to graduate. But she now had to officially call herself a seventh year. It was so tragic. |

"Long time, no see," he said as he took a seat next to her. She missed him, didn't she? DIDN'T SHE? She was obviously mental if she didn't. |
anyooooone? Theo did not like these things. As much as he had come to accept that magic was cray cray and there was always something to surprise him, he didn't like that there was an invisible creature pulling them along. HE couldn't see them, so what if they were huge, gigantic, killer beasts? No one was to know. The new third year hauled himself on one of the empty carriages, and then he looked round frantically for his friends. He just needed someone to protect him. WAHH. |
*steals Theodore* Quote:
Now actually on to the carriages. For a second, Bliss paused in front of one of them and just looked. Her parents had told her all about the creatures which pulled the carriages. Apparently they were called Thestrals, and looked like big, black horse, but she couldn't see them herself. Luckily. Idly, she wondered that if a person that could see them, took a photo of them, would it come out blank or not. Pushing her weird thoughts aside, Bliss reached the carriage and stuck her head in. OH LOOK. It was Theodore. "Hope you don't mind me joining you," she said and smiled, before pulling herself in. Theo was her friend, so it was safe to assume that he wouldn't mind her company. Unless he had reserved this carriage for other people. Let's hope not, Bliss thought as she plopped herself down in the seat opposite Theo. |
SPOILER!!: <33 Theo hummed when Bliss appeared at the carriage. He was kinda after someone who could protect him, like Dylan or Kurumi. Or just someone above the age of fifteen. But Bliss would do, he guessed. "Sure, go ahead." And don't mind him, just cowering in the corner here. Which actually, he needed to snap out of right now. Cos that wasn't cool. "Hey, Bliss... can you... see what's pulling these carriages?" He was really curious to know. Theo knew nothing about the subject. Though it kinda reminded him of ghosts. WHY COULDN'T GHOSTS JUST LEAVE HIM ALONE? ;________; |
SPOILER!!: Theo! <3 YAY. Bliss was glad that Theo wanted her in the carriage, she thought maybe that he'd want other people, but she was allowed. BEAM. "Thanks," she replied and got comfy in the carriage. She wondered when it would set off, perhaps when it was full? Hmmmmm. THUMB-TWIDDLING-TIME. Oh. That was a fair question. "No, I can't. I know what they are though," she told Theo and nodded. This was a weird subject, but it was better than silence at any rate. But it also involved death and that just....not a good topic for her, especially with her Dad being in the hospital. EH. |

As she got to the carriages Cassia took a general look and climbed the closes after tossing her trunk and the cage. She looked at the girl inside of it and flashed her a big grin. "Hi there! Mind if I join you." Of course Cassia was now sitting so it'd be awkward if the girl said no. Though Cassia had seen the girl before during the feast meaning she was a Slytherin. "By the way I'm Cassia." The snake introduced herself leaning back on her seat. Yup she was making herself comfortable. As the carriage started to move. Cassia drag her trunk closer and steadied it. She glanced at the cage and shrugged. It would be fortunate if it fell off the carriage and the owl died. Mehh..Musing at the castle which now was getting further and further away. Cassia turned to the older again. "It was an interesting term, huh?" She said in a exciting and conversational tone. Yeah she just met the girl but twelve-years old would talk and chat with anyone! And anything too. |
Quote:
She then shook her head, "Oh goodness Ronnie, I remember that now. I'm sorry. So much has changed over the last few terms, I guess it slipped my mind." How could she be so forgetful. "Well I would love to meet them, I bet they are great." Yes, since she was going to be around this summer it would be easier to get to see her friends more. Quote:
Then she noticed Ethan glancing to the front of the carriage. "I can't see them either. I wondered if maybe after the Millie incident if that would change or even the professor, but since we didn't actually see them being eaten just pulled away, it must not count." Glancing to the front of the carriage herself she shook her head. "They seem like pretty nice animals though, if you want to the front you can feel them breathing." It was kind of creepy but kind of cool at the same time Minerva thought. |
VM me if you grab him! ^_^ Pao walked out the large, oaken front doors with a heavy heart. He was going to miss this place. Well, mostly the people, but the castle itself, too. Especially now that they had access to their cozy common room again. But at the same time he was excited for summer. With a smile, he jumped into one of the empty carriages and waited for more people to join him. |
Nate smiled as he walked out the doors of Hogwarts for another summer vacation YEH!!!!!! This year he'd be all alone at his house though....sad face emoticon....BOOOOOOOO!!!!! That would suck having to be all alone at your house for all of summer. He wouldn't even be able to see his family leave because they're leaving right...about...now. So after he walked out he hopped into the carrage with one of his fellow Hufflepuffs. Though he never really met this ex first year. He smiled at the little one and said "Hi! My name's Nate. What's yours?" |
Quote:
With a little jolt the carriage started moving. Why was Hogwarts leaving her????? With one last stare out the carriage window she turned back to Cassia. "Yeah, interesting for sure, no common rooms part of the term, evil ghost dude, evil plant," Addie said as she named off the things that happened that term. It was a lot of weird things. "I don't think I'll ever look at a plant the same way." she announced. After all she had seen two teachers be eaten by an evil plant. |
Quote:
Pao returned the smile. "Hullo, Nate. I'm Pao. Well--" He should really clarify. "My name is actually Logan, but everyone calls me Pao. Short for Paolo, that's my middle name." He really needed to stop giving these long explanations. People didn't need to know all of that. |
Quote:
Something was very interesting happening here. Cassia was actually talking with an older student who seemed to be cool! That is remarkable. The snake made a mental note of telling her friend Lex that not all older kids were boring and mean. This Addie seemed the cool type. Once the plant was brought up the younger snake shuddered. "Guh! I never ever liked plants." She stated. "And people would think I was weird. Well, duh! Plants eat people and that was proved." She said with a triumph look. She was going to have to remember all the people who thought she was odd for desipising plants. Well, that was hard and needed effort. Maybe she should just forget about it. And as for the common rooms thing. "Well, on the bright side...." Cassia paused trying to think of a bright side of having to sleep on the ground in the great hall with all the other students! "Umm...You know it was a way of socializing." That's the best she got. |
Quote:
Within a couple of minutes, they were at the station and it was time to board the train. Lily grabbed her stuff and hopped down before Taylor had a chance to get out. The former third year gave one last look at the grumpy girl before heading off toward the train, hoping that she'd be able to find someone to sit with on the train ride home. |
Quote:
Addie smiled when the girl shuddered at the thoughts of plants. "I used to like them and Herbology," Addie stated like it was just a plain old fact that everyone should know. "Now I'm going to check to make sure it is completely safe every time we have Herbology." Yes Addie would check with the professor for the rest of her Herbology classes in her whole entire life to make sure that she never was at danger of being eaten by a plant again. Addie giggled. Sleeping on the cold hard floors being a way of socializing. "I guess we could be sociable, I think I was a little to busy complaining," Addie admitted to the younger snake. It wasn't her fault that she was used to a nice comfortable bed. "I like comfortable beds and got to sleep in my super comfortable bed for my whole entire life until last year when I came to Hogwarts so I guess I'm a little to used to comfortable beds," because it wasn't her fault that her mom refused to let her attend Hogwarts until her fifth year. Why did she think that being short would have that big of an impact on Addie's life? |
Quote:
"Milton! I am SO happy to see you. Glad you didn't die and YES. I missed you. I have been locked up in the dorms not wanting to see people, though. Everyone was all mopey and gross," she chattered excitedly. |
Quote:
The twelve-years old tried not to frown when Addie said she used to like Herbology. Honestly how could people like it. Weird. "Well, now I have an excuse to never step near the greenhouses." Too dangerous and Cassia's life was more important than a subject. And the snake was actually surprised that students were still going to take it. Well, she wasn't sure she wasn't going to because her father insisted she did. She'd have to convince him. Which was hard. Comfortable beds! Who didn't like them. "I know right! You enjoy sleeping when you have a soft and comfy mattress not like when sleeping on the hard floor." She said. "But that was the only time I got to sleep in a sleeping bag. Though it wasn't enjoyable but now I experienced it." Because she wanted to experience everything. |
