So once the train was in motion and there didn't seem to be many students flooding the corridor between the compartments the young girl had thanked Kimi before leaving to find her own place to sit for the remainder of the ride.

She hadn't really expected to be able to find an empty compartment but that's just what she found as she came to the middle of the train. Without wasting anymore time, Rylee slipped inside closing the compartment door behind her and sat down. Tucking herself into the corner against the window she pulled her knees up to her chest and took Neptune from his cage cradling the young rat against her chest. Long ginger hair framed her face hopefully hiding the new round of fresh tears that began to freely slide down her pale cheeks now that she was alone with her pet who wouldn't mind her crying.

She could have taken a chance with one of them, but she was not feeling quite that brave just yet.

Finally she came upon a compartment with just one occupant. Jessi was in luck because the girl inside looked to be about her age. She gave a soft knock on the door, opened it and peeked inside. “Hi, I was wondering.......” Before she could finish, she noticed that her prospective seatmate was crying. This couldn’t be good. Resisting the urge to turn and leave, the first year pressed on. “Are you ok? Would you mind a little company? My name’s Jessi and I could sure use someone to sit with who’s not like a million years old.”. Hoping that the answer would be yes, she tentatively inched into the compartment.

Alright. Now she was dressed for an adventure with her badge clipped to her bag. Time to explore the Hogwarts Express and make sure the kiddos were all settling in nicely. The blonde made her way to the middle of the train, offering a smile to those who passed her and a quick wave to the Head Boy who was surrounded by younger years... Seriously it seemed like Ace had a knack for working with kids. Vi smiled as she continued on her way, making sure that all was in order or at least close to it.

She came to a sudden halt when her eye caught two girls in a compartment. At a first glance, it all seemed fine but then she saw that one (Rylee) of the girls looked.... quite - no- very upset. That girl was just sitting there and crying. She blinked. Crying on her first trip to Hogwarts? Oh no! That was not a good start to the train ride. Perhaps the girl was upset because she was leaving home? Vi frowned. Poor thing. If so, Vi could def relate to that when she first left for Beauxbatons. Fortunately, the other girl (Jessi) in the compartment seemed to be trying to comfort the crying girl.

Removing her frown, she replaced it with a smile and then knocked on the compartment door before sliding the door open. "Everything ok in here, ladies?" she asked with a concerned smile before taking a step in. "Mind if I join you too? I'm Vi."
