Klaudette knew kids weren't observant unless it was something for themselves. She wasn't even obserant, but that was for totally different reasons. Still she wouldn't get trampled. "Well you're big," she commented and continued, "and they still aren't observant." She then thought about his hair. That way catch their attention, but only for a second then it was back to gibberish.

He knew Spider-man?! "Spider-man, has those powers? What a coinicidence." she said with excitment. 'I've never met him personally but I have met batman." she told him her story. "I was in Japan and he flew down from the roof tops and ordered a pizza. I got to tell him what toppings he should get. Ham and pineapple." She licked her lips after the last two words. Oh no, she was becoming an animal.

Klaudette tilted her head, "I thought house elves didn't age?" she questioned to Olie and herself. Hmmm. It was possible. And then he asked another obvious question. "Why aren't you on the floor?" Double emphasis on the you.

She was gonna spend all of her summers with that guy she was all kissy face with from the ball, atleast that's who she assumed Copernicus to be. And they were gonna be with friends in Fiji. Arya smiled at the older girl. That sounded like fuuun.

Whatever questions she had about the trip where pushed aside as Cela decided to go first in the giving of advice.



With bright eyes, she gave the Head Girl her undivided attention, easing back in her seat as she did.

The first piece of advice seemed extremely useful. She had already planned on experimenting with a few charms next term, having a few plans for activities she wanted to do her third year. Though nothing that would explode....she hoped. Still the girl made a mental note to only experiment when professors weren't around.

The little Puff grinned at the second piece of advice. It was sooo epic! Sliding down the staircase sounded liks a blast, not to mention being on a sugar high. EVERYTHING was ten times more fun when your on a sugar high. Arya added learning the cushioning charm to her list of spells to learn next term.

Arya didn't disregard the third piece of advice, but it wasn't something she planned on using in the near future. Sure she would be in a tree, but she doubted it would be with a boy and certainly she wouldn't be kissing. Eww.

Ravenclaw boys always kiss good? Not something she cared to know.

She'd bet five galleons that Cela's boyfriend was a Ravenclaw.

The fourth piece was a bit more useful, and not just for Quidditch matches. Having boys around when something bad happens to you had always proven useful to Arya in the past. Especially while being at Hogwarts. That was how she met Raiden. The girl made note to check Slytherins for fireworks when she went to the next match.

She never planned on playing any Quidditch, but Ivory liked the sport. If she played Arya would paint her face blue, so long the match wasn't against her house.

Arya had already known to use spells other than ones learned in defence class for duels. Cela had kind of taught that to her first year when she dueled Tibi. Ever since then she tried to think outside of the box when dueling. Arya grinned. She could totally be cute in a duel.

Grin dissolving into a slight frown, she listened to the fifth piece of advice. Cela wrong about things? Nonsense. Her eyes flicked over to the boy when he spoke, expression showing that she agreed with him. Sure she had thought Cela was wrong about the cupons first year. She even thought that girl had gone a little koko bananas after the broom care lesson, but ever since battle she had never second guessed the older girl's words or actions.

Still, she added it to her mental list. If Cela wanted them to question things then she would.

At this piece of advice, her eyes flickered at her best friend. Ivory let her down? Highly unlikely. Absently her arm slipped around Ivory's shoulders as she listened to the older girl. She had a feeling the girl was speaking about her kidnapping. Which made her think about thier duels. Something she hadn't done since last term. The end of last term had been hell for her, changing the way she viewed the world.

Smiling softly at the last bit of advice, she nodded her head in agreement. Obviously she was talking about that crazy Lafay. She also learned that you couldn't blindly trust the professors. Not all of them would risk their life protecting you. Some would atempt to bring you harm.

"That was awesome advice, Cela." She beamed at the Ravenclaw. "Thanks for sharing. You were a great Head Girl." She added thoughtfully. The girl had done so much for Arya, she was sad to see her go. But at the same time she was glad to have even met her, and call her a friend. Such a shame the next batch of students wouldn't get to know her.

Oliver raised his eyebrows incredulously. “Yeah... but they move when they see me coming.” He pointed out to her. ...And he didn't crawl along the corridors.

Erm... he was still confused over the 'webby powers' comment. “So... you can shoot webs out of your wrists?” He smirked amusedly at the wee girl. Batman? Oliver smiled. “Cool.” He replied stupidly. “But ham and pineapple? Surely Batman would want a more manly topping than that.” Like meat feast? Oliver licked his lips at the same time as Klaudette as he dreamt of food. Nommy. Shame you couldn't get pizza from the trolley.

The trolley lady was a house elf? Was Oliver really THAT unobservant? He crinkled his nose and tried to think what she looked like. Suppose she could pass for a house elf. Shrug. His eyes snapped back to Klaudette when she spoke. He frowned a little and the shrugged and slid onto the floor, crossing his legs red Indian style in the small space of their compartment. “Good point.” He replied with a nod. “Sitting on a seat is overrated."

Annabel walked along the train to find an empty compartment and was peering into all of the compartments to see if she could see any of her only 2 friends. She looked inside one and saw Daisy, with other people, she gazed at them for a while, wishing she had a group of friends like that, she slowly walked on, thinking about how to make more friends next term.

Maddie turned and smiled kindly at the girl who'd just walked past her. She looked rather lonely, somehow
'Hello' she said sofly, sliding her compartment door open a little 'D'you want to sit down? All the other compartments are probably full by now. I won't bite, promise' she knew what it was like to be lonely. It wasn't fun, and she was going to try and cheer this girl up. Yupp.

Iris glared at Jimbo some more as he continued to laugh at her. Even when she was shouting at him, that just seemed to make him giggle more. "Shuddup Jimbo." She muttered at him, watching a teeny crack on the wall panel. She REALLY wanted something heavy to chuck at him. Something that would hurt him.

Why did he find it okay to laugh? He was being a bully. A great big MEAN bully. Laughing at his own spellwork. Hpmf.

God, she was practically begging him, wasn't she? Iris sniffled a bit, and looked up, suprised as he stopped laughing.

"What?" Iris asked him, looking at Jimbo funnily. What was he trying to say? Jimbo looked kinda startled at Iris' crying. And so he should! He'd caused her crying!

Iris ignored him completely, and sat, looking out the window at the platform. She heard him say something, or make a noise of somekind, but Iris never looked away from the winder. Even when he came into the compartment and sat next to her, she still ignored him. Iris just scooted away from him and inch or so when he sat down. When he spoke up, Iris looked to him, her eyes all red and puffy. Damn sensitive skin, she wasn't even crying as much as it looked like she was.

"It's... It's not something you can choose not to do, Jimbo." Iris half noticed that she was calling him "Jimbo" out loud. She hoped that he noticed that, too... She didn't really want him to think that she was really actually mad at him. She never noticed that he went to put his hand on her shoulder.

As Jimbo took out his wand and closed the door and blinds, Iris looked at him, confused. When she realised that he was doing that for her privacy, Iris half-smiled.

Iris flinched as Jimbo reached out for her scarf. WOAH. Why was he touching her headscarf? He wanted to laugh at her again, didn't he?

Hmpf, idiot.

Well... he wasn't laughing, so Iris figured that he wasn't about to mock her anymore. In fact... he looked sooooo guilty. Like ... HONESTLY guilty. When he aimed his wand at her, Iris flinched - again. She didn't even KNOW why she kept flinching... It wasn't like he was going to actually hurt her. Not on purpose anyway.

Jimbo muttered some charm that Iris had never heard before, and she could feel her hair growing back at the sides rapidly. It felt weirder than it all dissapearing, but it felt amazing at the same time. To Jimbo, it probably looked like he was watching one of those time lapse films that they do with plants growing. She looked at him, and slowly, she lifted her hand to her hair...

... it felt like it was all there, and her hair felt just how it did before.

Iris took a mirror out of her pocket; y'know, the kind that flip open into two little round mirrors; and held it up to her face, to examine her hair.

You couldn't even tell that she'd ever had an awfully green mohawk.

Thank Merlin for that.

As she looked at her reflection, Iris could feel her eyes watering up again. She heard Jimbo apologise quietly next to her, and Iris looked at him, closing her mirror. "It's aight..." She said to him, wiping her eyes, "Just ... Just promise me you'll never, ever do anything like that to me again."

Sammy smiled and put her right arm, which was in a cast, out indicating the seat opposite her "take a seat" she said cheerily. Then picking her cat up off the ground so Maddie wouldn't step on it. She pulled her legs up onto the seat and sat cross legged, it always seemed comfortable. Next to her was her was a pile of stuff, which at one point was in a bag. This pile of stuff included: Ipod, A Series of Unfortunate Events: books 1 to 5, packets of bertie botts every flavor beans and peppermint humbugs, a small coin pouch, her phone, keys, and now her cat.

He had a point. People never moved for Klaudette, even when they noticed her. When that happened, they were actually less likely to move because they starred to see what she was doing. It never bothered Klaudette, nothing really did, it was sometimes inconvient. "Well I guess that's ok. I just get to work on my sneaken skills," she commented with a smile and then added, "I'm like a cat."

Klaudette tried to shoot webs from her wrist and do the notable hand gesture. Nope. The most she could do was make the noise that went with it. "I mostly can climb and get to crazy heights by using objects around me." she replied to his question when the web didn't work, 'that's how I am like Spider man." she finished and added quickly, "plus the costume."

Klaudette didn't know about more manly toppings. Maybe more toppings would have been better, but they didin't need to have a gender assigned to it. "Well, he wanted girly that night." she suggested and then added, "you know you like girl sometime too." I mean no one can be their gender all the time. Klaudette frequently wanted to be a bird.

Klaudette clapped when Olie moved to the floor. "Isn't this so much better Olie?" she asked, meaning it to be rhetorical, but that always didn't happen. "We can play paddy-cake so much easier now." she said with excitement. And then she saw a cloud and got distracted. "It looked like a ladybug. Spots and all.

Daisy saw Annabel walking outside and stood up. "Guy's I'll be right back." Without further explanation she got out of the compartment and walked after her friend. "Annabel!" She caught up tih her as she was being asked to join somewhere else. "Or you could come to my compartment. My friends won't mind. I ca introduce you to all of them."

Savannah went to the back of the train and sat in an empty compartment. After this train ride she might never see Hogwarts again, or her friends. Savannah thought that it's best not to think of it right now. So she took out a book from her bag and started reading.

Aw he was uncomfortable...hehe.

GOOD!

Making sure to keep the satisfied smile off of her face, Evelyn moved her attention away Zach and to Destiny. She seemed awfully quiet. Perhaps her mind was on chocolate or something. Oh dear Merlin, hopefully she wasn't thinking of chocolate. The door was locked right?! If she made a run for the food trolley, Evelyn was running after her! She didn't want a crazy Destiny on the first day of...Summer.

Taking a deep breathe, remembering that she wasn't going home this summer, or...ever...the Slytherin quickly cleared her throat and glanced out of the window once Kylie asked about their cats. "Umm...Poof must have ran off somewhere to cause mischief or something." Ever since that day she took the croissant from Kylie, she had been sneaking food from others. Why no one noticed some of their food missing from their plates in the great hall was beyond her.

However, losing track of her thoughts once the subject of the wand incident was brought up, the black eyed girl almost looked guilty for a moment before recovering and shaking her head no. "No, I just found it in a corridor. No indication to who might have took it."

Well duh. No one else took it. She did.

Haha!

The embarrassment in Kylie's voice was evident, and it made Destiny smirk. It was so obvious that, not only she but Evelyn as well had ruined a moment between her and Zach. She opened her mouth to say something, but it flew out of her head at the word potatoes.

POTATOES, say whaaaaat?

Where were these potatoes that Kylie spoke of? With a confused look on her face, she looked at Kylie, "Where are the potatoes?" Hopefully they were close by, since Destiny was always getting hungry. If she didn't get food soon, she would have to make a stop at the food trolley to stock up on some chocolate. Although, Zach looked uncomfortable enough as it was, Merlin knows what he would do with her on a chocolate rush. He'd probably have a panic attack and Destiny had left all her paper bags in her trunk. Coming to the conclusion that there probably were no potatoes in the compartment, she sat back in her seat and crossed her arms.

The mention of her cat, however, wiped all thoughts of potatoes out of her head. Oops. She had left her cat out in the corridor along with her trunk. "Sly? Well, I kinda lost him. I haven't seen him in a few days, so I figure he's still at Hogwarts." She looked between the three people in the compartment before laughing, "Just kidding, he's out in the corridor."

Ooo, someone stole Kylie's wand, eh? It was NOT Destiny, that's for sure.

Cats? Zach loved cats! KITTIESSSSS. He smiled a little bit at their mention, relaxing the tiniest bit. Anyone with a cat has to be an okayish person, he told himself. Then Kylie looked at him. He didn't know why or what she was trying to convey with it. Probably something like "Calm the flip down, you're being weird and embarrassing me in front of my friends!" Okay, okay, he could take a hint. He breathed deeply one more time and tried to convince himself to relax his super-tensed-up shoulders. It worked a little, and he sighed, turning his attention back to the conversation. Someone had taken Kylie's wand? That was weird. Why would somebody do that? "Your wand was taken?" he asked her. Maybe if he got her talking, he'd relax a little and feel better.

" Daniel, hi, how have you been doing?" Rex asked him. " We got a couple of seats in this compartment with us" Rex told Daniel.

" Victoria will be overjoyed" Rex told Daisy. " Do not worry, the nervousness means you are in love or some type of love with the " Prince of Serpents" Rex explained to Daisy in a low voice.

Willow walked into the compartment and slowly made her way to the back of the train, siting down in the window seat in the last row. She always liked looking out the window at the scenery while she rode on the train. It was also a grate time to read, which she had been to busy to do all term. She pulled out a copy of sherlock Holmes and began to read it, content with the thought of her mothers fresh apple pie.

"Okay but only as long as my friend here can come with me, then we will either stay or go to her compartment" Annabel said, gesturing to the girl who asked her to join her.

"Hi! I'm Annabel and this here is my friend called Daisy." Annabel said jerking her head in Daisy's direction and giving her that friendly look that friends do. "If you want we can go meet Daisy's friends and then if you want to we can stay or go to your compartment. Okay?" Annabel asked politely, she was a kind girl and wanted to have more friends, hopefully she would be a good friend to Annabel.

One leg in front of the other, Nulu told herself as she made her way to the back of the train. She was a clumsy girl but she decided for the sake of her pastries and the hungry growl that her stomach was producing she made her way back to the compartment to see that the person who had been in there was interested in some pastries to see that sleep was still in their agenda. She noticed someone else but she did not say a thing. “Jeremy will you please move?” Jeremy glared and she smiled and sat on the opposite side. The window was taken by Jeremy and another student. She reached to grab her book and set her pastries aside. Yes she was hungry but she rather wait a bit before eating. She opened her book and noticed that a letter was inside it. Nulu had borrowed this book from the girl’s common room. It was a prank book who had been left behind from another student with the initials MJS. She wondered if she should read it, maybe it was a personal letter. She took the letter and decided to put it in her sweater that Jeremy was sleeping on. She moved it a little allowing the pocket to be accessible allowing her to put the letter inside. She looked inside to read the latest prank of MJS.

Hands in pockets and his big gray owl on his right shoulder Josh wandered in the corridors in search of his friends for he was feeling like he needed to have fun right now, somewhere. The place did not matter and it could not differ much either since they were in a train.

And it appeared that there was no fun in the corridors so he slowly started to peek in the compartments to see a familiar face or any face to play with. Play what? He did not know and it was not important. As he walked past the compartments the boy did a low 'agh!' when the owl on his shoulder bit his ear ''Hotty!'' he said angrily waving the bird away ''I know you still want that chocolate but no its mine. You can have my ear if you'd like to'' then as the bird perched on his shoulder again the Gryffindor stopped immediately when he felt something fluffy touching his legs.

Right before him there was a small white cat which made the boy smile at its sight. It was pretty cute and white and small so there was no doubt that it belonged to a girl or if its owner was not a girl Josh was going to have a little conversation with him about the pets a boy should own. While the owl was making a voice to express that she was annoyed, the boy picked the cat up and looked around to see if there was any first year girls who might have lost her pet and it was when he saw Evelyn in a compartment with Destiny and two Hufflepuffs. Smirking he made a move to open the compartment door yet...

it was not going to open. ''Hey!'' he knocked on the door ''Hey! What are you doing inside ha?''

ZOMG!

This was perfect!

"I LOVE group hugs," Gold decided, there and then, as she pulled the two of them into another hug. But enough hugs! Brody was right, someone could attack them with a door. Bwaha. "We really should get up." She jumped to her feet, and held out both hands, one for Lori Louu, and one for Brody. Hehe. Talk about awesomeness.

Today was definitely made of win.

Pink glitter? But of course. Gold should have expected this reaction. She glanced at the small dump of yellow-and-blue-ish glitter, already on the floor. It was awesome, but PINK! would be plain love!

"It's in my bag," Gold grinned. "I got some especially for you," she added, looking at Lori. "I wanted to give you something special, and I know you like PINK! glitter and - is my hair full of fake snow?" She could totally tell it was, because some of it had just fallen on her shoulder.

It made Gold want to laugh. Every thing about right now was making her want to laugh. Because 'right now' = awesome.

"I love you two!" Like she hadn't said that a million times, already. But it was true. True, true, truuuuue.

Having conflicting thoughts about if Sly really was missing, whether she'd be happy or downright sad that he was gone, Evelyn smiled before leaning more on the side wall and bringing her feet up to the seat to be a little more comfier. Perhaps, she should go looking for Poof. She didn't need some stupid person to steal her or anything...

All thoughts of hexing anyone who touched her cat though disappeared as a muffled noise filled her ears, along with a rather loud knock. Turning her head to see who or what it was, half expecting it to be Poof, she was surprised to see...she was half right. Poof's face was cute as all get out, but the person holding her...was even cuter.

Teehee!! JOSH!

Sucking in a load of air, Evelyn flung herself up and opened the compartment door. Well, she tried to at least. She didn't realize that it was locked and ended up almost breaking a nail. Sighing, she unlocked it before opening it slightly...and then pausing. Hmmm. With the tiniest glance behind her, the Slytherin took a step forward out of the compartment before closing the door behind her. Hehehehe.

"Hey!" she said, keeping her hands behind her back and on the compartment door handle so no one was able to open it. At least, not yet anyhow. "You found my cat. Thank you, I've been looking for her everywhere."

Lies! But, he didn't know that.

Smiling at the people inside and waving his free hand, the boy's eyes stopped on the pretty Slytherin girl who stood up to open the door: Evelyn. His smile widened as she walked closer yet it vanished when he saw her sigh failing to open the door like he did. ''Are you okay?'' Why they did lock the door was beyond him, however, he totally forgot asking about it as the girl stepped before him and closed the door behind her.

Then her sight reminded him what he spoke with Destiny and her suggestion about what he could do. Yet a corridor of a train was defibitely not a suitable place for it especially when he had two pets, an owl and a cat, on him. Plus he had just seen her, had not he? U-uh not the right time and place. And probably he was not going to find the opportunity since summer time was coming and he did not know when he was going to be able to see her again.

Anyway he snapped out of those thoughts when she spoke ''Your cat?'' the Gryffindor repeated looking at the cat then back at Evelyn. Hehehe he knew it belonged to a girl. ''Um-well...'' he scratched his head and smiled again. She had been looking for her so the cat was a girl too ''She was not too far from you then, i have just found her there.'' he indicated a point a few steps away from them. ''Yes, right there'' And the owl on his shoulder hooted as if she was trying to repeat what her owner pronounced.

Was she okay? "Yea...I'm fine." she said, though slightly confused on why he asked that question in the first place. It didn't matter though. Any question would have been wonderful. She felt like she hadn't seen him in ages! And the fact that she missed him at the feast... Where had the Gryffindor been all this time?! Hopefully, not hiding from her.

Nodding slightly at his next question, the Slytherin looked down in time to see the white cat try and reach up towards the owl. Awwww, she was so cute! But it was Josh's owl, so it was not appropriate. "Oh, really?" Raising a brow, she looked at the spot where her indicated, only to realize...Sly was right there. In his cage. Huh, she better not have been talking to him or whatever cats do. Sly may be adorable, but he was a bad role model. If Poof started eating grass or shoelaces, then Destiny was going to get an earful!

"Well, luckily you got her in time before she ran off somewhere else." Which of course, Evelyn wouldn't have minded all that much. Just as long as she scratched Rex or Kay whenever she saw them. Smiling, she gently took the cat off of Josh's hands and held her in her arms, letting her make herself comfortable before looking back up to the Gryffindor. "I...haven't seen you in awhile. Where have you been?"

She was...fine which was...good. Though he eyed the girl again as if his eye could catch if there was something wrong with her. And...she seemed to be okay as usual. Well now it turned out that he was not only over protective of her but also was overly worried about her well-being.

He was so busy with staring at her that he did not even try to stop the cat as she tried to reach his owl. The owl, on the other hand, hooted again to intimidate the little cat. Being alike her owner the bird was always trying to intimidate the foe instead of running, or at her case, flying away.

Meanwhile Josh nodded at the girl's first question and stopped indicating the point when she stared at that way thinking how stupid he was looking standing there and indicating one point for more than a minute. Maybe she had not realised it, hopefully.

''Not to worry. She seems to be a well-behaved cat'' except the fact that she tried to attack Hotty. Josh was oblivious to that fact anyway. And her next question was...a good one. Where had he been? ''I was mostly in the common room and went to the forbidden forest when i was out. Because...well...i was angry. I am still a little bit angry.'' he took a big breath and like someone who held something big to say he quickly spilled all the other words ''Mum and dad are going to have a baby soon. They did not even tell me! And guess what. I am again with that ex auror guy this summer because the baby is making mum sick and they don't have enough time to deal with me.''

Daisy gave a small smile and whispered. "Well I don't know about that. Love takes awhile to build and I don't think I love him. Maybe the other way around. He love's me and I think it's to soon to be loving each other."

Daisy nodded and waved at the other girl. "Well you're both welcome to join us. Just two compartments down on the left if you're interested. "With that she gave Annabel a quick hug. "If I don't see you before the train rides over I hope you have a good break. Come and visit sometime."

Lori laughed again, and hugged Brody tight, before turning to smile at Goldie. "Doors are so evil, they hurt when they hit you. Why were they INVENTED?" Bloody doors. Evil doors. Bloody evil things.

She grinned and took Goldie's hand and hoisted herself up. "No doors can hurt us noooooooow!" The brunette laughed, and span on the spot, kicking some fake snow up off the floor. WHEEE! "Ooooh, yes Goldie! There's a few sprinkles in your HAIIIIR! It kinda looks like a red christmas tree, covered in SNOOOWWW!" Or, something like that. Mwaha.

Pink. Pink. Pink. Pink. Pink. GLITTTERRRRRR!

"I love you tooo, Goldie! Now GLITTTERRRRR! Oh yes! And Brody has presents to opennnn!" Haheh!
