Her mother had not wanted to come to the station with her; she chose instead to go out with her boyfriend. Typical.
Rubiey heaved her heavy trunk, and cage with her beautiful black owl, Gabilan inside, hooting serenely at passers-by. She struggled to pull it onto the train. Damn it, its too heavy. Rubiey started to panic. If she didn't get on the train soon, she'd miss it completely. HELP.
Ah Platform 9 3/4 what a familiar site. Trix decided that she would leave her parents behind the barrier, now that she knew a lot of people here and she had her friends to keep her company anyway. Plus she was 16 now, she didn't need anyone to guide her over. But as the Blonde walked along the platform beside the scarlett red train, she spotted someone whom she had become well acquainted with upon her visit to Diagon Alley a few days previous.
"Rubiey?" she almost asked, hoping that it was the first year Gryffindor she had met.
"Are you alright?" noticing that she was struggling with her suitcase and her Owl. They were obviously heavy, Trixie's were almost impossible to carry but she managed, being a trained dancer and things.
The 16 year old took a hold of the trunk and dragged it up herself onto the train. She was always willing to help a first year.
"Is that better?" she asked, just leaving the Gryffie to take her Owl up onto the carriage.
