It didn't matter though, did it? The whole train, with all of its parts, was going to the same place after all; Hogwarts...

....which made him super exciting and happy the more he imagined what the rest of his life was going to be like there living in that amazing castle. While he was also looking forward to get rid of his parents' overly protective means, he knew that he was going to miss them. Hogwarts was the place where they also lived as kids though. This eased his thoughts of being away from them for months. He was going to be walking in the corridors his parents walked, classes they sat in and place they ate so maybe that didn't make him so far away from them.

And also....big boys like him didn't moan and cry about being away from parents. That was for babies and mentioning babies, the boy was disappointed since he seemed to have lost the sight of his brother within the corridor. There were people around and compartments and stuff...but not the twin brother.

*sad face*

Maybe if he yelled loudly enough, his brother would come to him himself.

" RYDEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRR!!!!!"

He was Gryffindor like that. "Ah well.. they pay me in bubble baths?..." he grinned, which wasnt so bad given that swanky Prefect's bathroom "....Any disciplinary actions has to be signed off by Faculty" he answered the boy--Ryder, as he be called-- so yeah no power tripping or turning Prefects into personal attack dogs ".... And no, cats usually dont eat owls at school because owls have their own place-- its called an Owlery. So if you want to make sure your owl is safe, best to keep it there." wink. And the most important question of all "Food trolley is....." turns to look out the corridor left and right before spotting it ".... that'a way!" he nudges with his head.

And then there was what sounded like a tornado siren wailing down the corridor..... oh it was from a kid. A kid who looked really familiar--double takes-- its the same face as the kid in the compartment! He smirked at Ryder and, recalling the earlier conversation between the kids, asked a little LOUDLY "Are you hiding from him?"

She didn't know this for sure, but the other boy had extended his hand and done the whole introduction thing, so Maddie assumed she should, too. She bounced to her feet and held out her hand. She'd never shaken someone's hand before! "I'm Madeline Claire Kemp, but you can call me Maddie," she said. Nobody had ever called her Madeline. She caught the look from the boy she now knew was Ryder, but she had no idea what his look meant.

Side-eye to YOU, TOO, RYDER.

Ryder had questions, which of course Maddie wanted the answers to. He got to punish people? ...and CATS MIGHT EAT OWLS? But what about Pepper? Maddie didn't want her owl to get eaten! She tried not to think about that and instead focused on bubble baths. "In bubble baths?! You mean, the rest of us never, ever get to take bubble baths? You have to be a prefect to do that kind of thing?" she asked. MEAN. Talk had turned back to owls and how to keep them safe, though, so Maddie's mind changed direction and left all thought of bubble baths behind. "Do cats have their own special places? What about toads? Do they live in the swamp on the fifth floor?" she asked.

In the next few seconds, she was torn between bolting for the food trolley and figuring out who or what was coming down the corridor. It was a boy, according to the prefect, and apparently, something made him think Ryder was hiding from him. Ohhh, that sounded interesting! Maddie bounded over toward the door and stood on her tippy toes to get a better look. "There's a whole other person who looks just like you!" she said to Ryder. He hadn't mentioned he was a TWIN.
