"Ya know...you shouldn't be all alone here," the girl said. "You can come with me and join the fun. My compartment is a bit full but...I'm sure we can manage."
"Oh, yeah... I just don't know anybody here. I am muggle-born, and, um, a first year," Gwen truthfully answered.
Stowing her wand back into her pocket, she curiously looked at the girl, wondering if she should take up the offer. Before she could answer, the girl introduced herself.
"Hello, Allison," said Gwen with a smile, reaching out her hand to shake, "I'm Guenevere; Gwen for short!"
It may be fate that she has met this girl.
"Okay, I'll join you. But perhaps I should change into my robes first- if your compartment is crowded, I might not be able to change in time. Tell me where your compartment is, and I'll join you as soon as I am properly clothed," Gwen answered with a smile.

Laughing at Em's comment Allison waved her hand,
"Oh whatevs. Let the train station sue us! I'm having too much fun to care!~" Quote:

As she ate her frog, Perseus hoped into her lap to gret her, she reached into her pocket and gave him a treat."Hey Gwen, I'm Arya. And this little guy is Perseus."She pointed down at her crazy kitten trying to get more treat out of her pockets.
Allison looked up at the person being introduced as Kae. At first glance she didn't see much behind Arya, and then she looked again. In front of Allison stood a short skinny girl, much like Allison herself. With short black hair and beautiful green eyes--Allison kept on looking. Suddenly the girl gave a display of her two dimples. Frowning Allison inwardly sighed, she only had one dimple, and it was sooo small it was often missed.
Putting on a smile Allison reached over to shake the girl's hand,
"Hallo. I'm Allison. First year, and hopeful housemate to all these fellas!"
Looking around Allison noticed there wasn't much space left in the compartment and shook her head. One more person and
SHE'D become claustrophobic.
"I hope you can manage there seems to be little space, but I think we'll fit." Retaking her seat Allison turned to pet Tegan.

She turned around and pulled her luggage off the rack.
Finally, I meet someone who isn't a shop keeper... Gwen thought...
She opened her trunk and pulled out her brand new Hogwarts robes.
Its lucky I have money. I don't think second hand robes would be that appealing she thought as she slowly put on her robes.
She closed her trunk back up, and opened the compartment door wondering if she would be able to find this compartment.
To her amazement, the corridor was completely empty, and she could hear something going on in a nearby compartment. Gwen wandered down, thinking of The Wizard of Oz... Follow the yellow brick road. But in her case, follow the carrying noise.
Finally, she came across a compartment that seemed to be bursting at the seams.
I hope I'll fit in there... she thought as she opened the door, and the noise consumed her.
"Um, Hi," she said, trying to not disturb the many conversations going on. "I'm Gwen, Allison invited me to stop by," she said, hoping for approval from Allison's friends.
As soon as she walked in, another girl introduced herself.
"Hey Gwen, I'm Arya. And this little guy is Perseus."
"Oh hello!" said Gwen smiling to herself. "I love cats. Yours is adorable! I have one at home. Her name is Pita. I might bring her along to Hogwarts next year!"
And then, the last person arrived. The one to make the compartment explode. Well it was Allison's fault after all, she had tried her hand at being social and she had succeeded.
Laughing at herself Allison spoke,
"And this is the girl I mentioned. Gwen! Welcome to what I know call Chaos...the black whole. Where you come in and it is difficult to go anywhere else."
Scooting over and all but squishing Anastasia to the compartment window, Allison patted the small space next to her.
"You can come and sit, lucky for you I'm super skinny."
Allison was young and appearance still didn't really matter to her. The only thing that had ever really bothered her was how UNDERweight she was. Most people made fun of her--especially the entire Scott family, and often murmured things about her. Thus, Allison always tried to make light of her weight. Oh she ate, and sometimes to her mother's dismay too much. However her metabolism was so fast that her aunt had once jinxed her so that she wouldn't be blown away by the wind. Not that she would have been blown, but the family was like that. Inconsiderate and liked to make things worse than they were.
