Penny nodded. "Yeah I miss alot of things, but then I dont. I was shocked when I ran into an old friend on the train." she said thinking back to seeing Mads on the train. Talk about shocker. "Cool seventh year." she said. She thought about the little person that came flying at her. She did not know what yeah she was in. "I know what you mean, the babbling. I do it to sometimes." she said with a small giggle.

Penny over heard what this Jason guy said. That was just so wrong. She did not know this Jason or Jamie person that he was talking about . Being compared to someone that she did not know, pushed her close to the edge. "Dude! I don't know you and you dont know me. Dont be comparing me to someone else." she told him. Her temper was rising and she did not like it.

With some food in her mouth she asked Diana the cute lil girl who was sitting and eating quietly beside her. "What are you thinking? Do you like the food?" she asked and remembered her wish. "let me introduce to my othe friends here.." she directed her index finger to her friends one by one. "This's Zel my partner in Crime the Hufflepuffer, and she's Anna, next to her is Kaika and the boy next to me is Elan a first year.." and she introduced Daina to everyone she knew at the table.

"Really, that's good now you have three people you know." she said and smiled. "It's always nice to find old friends." she said and looked at her. "Yay, I am not alone in that." she blushed again and sighed. "Sorry." she said and then smiled. "I wonder when we will be able to head back to the common rooms." she wondered out loud


When MJ heard what Jason said she made him a funny face and stuck out her tounge a bit then laughed. "Very funny Jason." she told him. Suddenly when Jason began to whisper in her ear she jumped a little. She had not expected him to do. "But, she's not Jamie, it's not fair to Penny just because you are still hurt from Jamie." she whispered back and sighed.

Sometimes girls and guys could be interestingly weird. She knew she was not one to talk. When she had feeling for her crush she did the same thing. MJ looked at Misty who still was looking around for him. She wished Misty would stop asking about Vince.

It hurt to think of him and she didn't know why. He had just been a fancy, but was that what she was really upset about? Or losing him as a friend was that why it hurt so much?

"Do you guys think I should try out for Quidditch?" she asked randomly all of a sudden.


MJ looked up at Penny "Penny, I'm sorry." she said and looked at Jason. "Jase is really nice he's just being a guy." she said and blinked there had to be a way for her to get Penny to calm down.

Misty felt like MJ was about to cry so she quickly jumped of her head and jumped into Jason's and shook her head. Misty then began to tap Jason letting him know that he had to apologize. She didn't like seeing her owner cry and she defeneatly did not like to see people angry expecially if she hadn't caused the problem and couldn't fix it by being cute

"Yes, everyone who wants to try out for Quidditch sholud" Jason told MJ. " Even Misty should try out for the team, too" Jason told MJ. " Hello Penny" Jason said. Jason can not believe the uncanny resemblence between Penny and Jamie.

Diana smiled back,and greeted enthusiastically,"Oh!Hello!I'm Diana...Diana Lynton,a First-Year.Why is the speech taking so long to begin?Actually,I'm dying to meet my owl,Ross.So...."She,too,had found some likeliness between herself and the older girl.

Punz smiled at Lima. Hufflepuff were good at cheering each other up - tis a fact of life. "And you know, Slytherpuffish things will be much easier to plot now that we're home at Hogwarts...." she trailed off with a wink. "Perhaps El down there will help us with some plotting....I totally bought out Weasley's Wizard Wheezes over the summer...."

"HALLO!" Punz called down the table, giving a little wave to the girl sitting beside Ella. "I'm Rapunzel! I love Quidditch! You should too!"

Ahh yes, she was a master at introductions. A little vague and entirely bubbly - just the way intros should be.

Maddox chuckled and said, "No you arent that bad. And i have to agree." He laughed really hard. The girls on the quidditch team had painted his nails for the quidditch cup finals. then lima did when she stayed with him. He didnt know why he put himself through these things, they just happened.


"You are too adorable!" He smiled he could tell she was getting sleepy. "Wakey wakey eggs and bakey no sleeping yet." He poked her sides to get her woken up.




Maddox noticed Penny was having some trouble with Jason. He decided to go over there before Penny hexed him and got kicked out of here too. Mads walked up to her and whispered in her ear, "Lets go before you get angry and do something you shouldnt."


Maddox turned to jason and said, "She doesnt look a thing like Jamie. Your just still upset because she was forced to leave. And i understand mate, but you gotta let it go."


Maddox pulled Penny by the arm and said, "Lets go." The things i do for a friend, he thought.

Penny was about to say something to MJ when Mads come over. Mads knew when she need to get away. Penny turned to MJ, "I am sorry. I hope to see you in the common room." she said to the girl and got up and followed Mads. Penny smiled at Mads and nodded. When she was farther down the table she tapped Mads on the shoulder. "Thank you." was all she could say to him. She was still mad.

" Yes, sorry Penny" jason told her. "Gee, you have good hearing like me" jason told Penny. " Misty, sorry, did not mean to upset you or MJ" jason told them. "You are right Maddox, I need to get over it" Jason told him.

Savannah's eyes grew upon hearring that. She looked quickly to the older girl, "MJ, what about heights?" She asked quietly, refraining from making it obvious to those who didn't know MJ's fears, or atleast past ones. Maybe things had changed?
Keeping an eye on a possible concern with a girl MJ was talking to and the Gryffindor boy, Savannah held her smile despite that. She waved a gentle hand as Ella introduced her as Anna, "Very nice to meet you, Diana. I'm Savannah Mae; Some call me Anna for short," She added, musing to look up at the staff table briefly. "The start and end of term feasts are always the longest. I'm sure the Headmistress will make her speech soon enough." Savannah explained assuringly, head tilting to the side abit, finding interest in the owl subject. "Are you interested in creatures?"

Ella heard Zel as she was talking abt the plotting and says her name too. She was looking forward to use her precious possession atleast this term. And Zel would be her nice partner in Crime. She chuckled at the thought and said louder to Zel, "Oh..Hey, I heard someone is mentioned my name.." she laughed and threw a cherry on Zel. Seemed the play time was started just before the speech.

Ella smiled at their conversation. Diana seemed very pleased to meet everyone around her. How cute and active she was! She leaned towards Anna, "She wants more friends. I guess she'll fit in our group easily" she chuckled again.

MJ's eyes were wide and she felt like her day was going into the drama section. She didn't know what had occurred and she was confused. She didn't like seeing people mad. She hated fights and her eyes filled with tears

Everything was occurring to way to fast and she was confused but she watched as the guy took her away and she looked at jason confused and wondering why things had occurred like they were now. She looked at Penny and nodded.

Misty looked at Penny and sighed. She hoped Penny was going to be okay. She jumped off Jason's head and went into MJ's arms and hugged her. MJ was completely confused

Garret scooted over a bit in his seat... away from a first year girl. Sure, he didn't resent them as much as he used to. In fact, Garret thought a bit uncomfortably, he seemed to like them a little too much.

He was twelve now (practically a man!), and had been through some changes. But no matter what the changes, there was still a part of him that didn't like the way girls talked too much, or sat too close, or were just generally... well, too girly.

Garret looked to the Staff table a bit desperately. When was the Head gonna make the speech already? He was STARVING!

Unexpectedly, Dominic found himself walking back towards the one table he had walked away from before his strange encounter with the dark haired man. Only this time he noticed someone he hadn't before - a young boy, around his own age.

That wasn't what struck him the most though; the young man was seated away from girls. Already a step up in his book.

Dominic swept a quick glance down the table and then back to the lone boy. "Mind if I sit here?" he asked charmingly, already stepping over the bench into the spot next to him.

When Ella threw another cherry towards Zel, it accidentaly brushed against the young boy's ear. "Ouch!!!" She gasped and looked over him, mouthed, "Sorry master!" She determined to have a better aim next time to make a perfect throw.

A nervous Emalyn Daniels sat gaping at the many plates of food, some of which she had never seen in her entire life. There were four huge, long tables, one for each house, and thousands of students sat about at them. There was a fifth table for the teachers and head-master, Emalyn notices, for that is where she had been sorted.

Emalyn reached for a bowl of potatos and scooped some onto her plate. She then wondered what the orange liquid was in her goblet. She had never drank out of a goblet before and wasn't sure if this drink was apple cider, or something else.

She took a sip and a horrified look came over her face. The last thing she had expected was the taste of pumpkins.

Garret was relieved when another boy's voice interrupted his thoughts, only to be disturbed by something brushing his ear. And a girl's voice. He groaned mentally before turning to the girl with a grimace visible on his face.

"S'okay."

No, not really. You girl.

But he quickly turned away from her again, before she started dragging him into a conversation about inane girly things. He looked over at the other boy and rolled his eyes (not that it could be seen under his hair), "Girls..." he muttered so just the boy could hear, "Always tryin' to find a way to get us to notice 'em."

She got the good impression of that boy as he said..sokay. But when she was trying to return her smile he turned away quickly and muttered something to the other boy. It might be something about her, she knew that. Boys!!

She got up and reached him, "May I know, waht you were muttering?" she asked, keeping her hands on her both side of the hip.

Dominic's question was interrupted by the one person both him and this boy were trying to avoid; girls!

He couldn't help but take notice of him quickly turning away from the girl who'd touched him. But before he could respond to his comment, the girl was at it again and demanding what it was. "Tell me about," he said, rolling his eyes and thinking of the redhead, Clumsy Blind Girl, Clumsy girl, and others. "Seems this one is trying again," he added on, even more quietly.

Alice sat down at the table and looked up and down it. "Wow." She filled her plate with various foods and looked at her goblet, "Could it be?" She asked herself. Taking a drink her eyes lit up, *mmm, forgot how good things taste here.* She smiled and began picking at her food, trying one thing, then another. She looked at each house table, and saw Alex sitting at his. *It was nice of him to talk to me again.* She thought. Her face broke into a huge grin and she looked over the staff table, still picking absently at her plate.

"Nope sorrehh." She answered knowing full well who she was on about.

"Hey Hannah. Im Tamzin." She smiled at the girl.

Elan listened as she told her story. It seemed awful that her mom would be so mean to her, and keep her from her dad. "Well, I guess welcome to the freak place." He smiled. "My dad is the non magical one. He wasn't real excited about me being a wizard, but he says it's part of me so I need to develop it."

Elan blushed. "I'm sorry. I guess I should have let you tell the others about you. Welcome to our first year at Hogwarts." Elan felt comfortable around Ella, but she was so much older than him.

Eva smiled. She had felt exactly the same when she was on her first year.
"You'll get use to it." she answered.


Eva almost thanked to God listening to her friend's answer. Life was perfect. She was back at Hogwarts and there was no Jared Glass to hunt them. Yet.
"Tammy.. there's something i've been to ask you." she said with mystery.

Ella smiling at his blushing. It was so cute on him. She gently ruffled his hair without messint too much, said, "Not a problem Elan. And get my greeting too.." After the initial barriers he looked more confident. Time for more questions. "So..can you tell me abt you only if you like." she didnt want to push things so quickly.

He grinned, and felt a little silly as she ruffled his hair.

"Yeah. I can tell you. I live in Italy with my mum and dad. Mum's a witch and I only learned after the letter arrived. She's Welsh and so this was the school that claimed me. Apparently there was some back and forth between the Italian and the British wizard unions to take me. But since mum's the witch, Britian won."
