Natasha arrived early at the station with her mentor, who had decided to see her off. He helped her gather her belongings, and even pushed them into the station for her.
Natasha thought of arguing this one last time, but was not dumb enough to do that. He had promised that she could come back in between terms, and she would be his apprentice again after she graduated.
Looking around, Natasha was not sure she was in the right place, there did not seem to be many people here. After a moment's hesitation, she followed her mentor through a wall, that lead to another platform - where the train would take her away from everything she knew.
Her mentor gave her a few more reassurances that she still had a home, and that this was best for her, and then disappeared, back into the muggle world. |
