August looked up and said "Sure," Ngaio crawled up her shoulder and looked at the new comer. "Surprised no one has sat down in here yet but..I'm a first year so that probably explains why." She smiled nicely and said "Also we're near the edge of the train so most people chose a spot by the time they make it down."

Eventually, Liz found an empty compartment. She stepped inside and quickly sat down furthest away from the aisle. Eric stuffed their trunks into the overhead luggage compartment, taking the owl's cage and gently setting it beside their things. The owl screeched and hooted, making a loud ruckus.
"Can't you just make it quiet?" Liz begged.
"It's a he," Eric corrected, sitting next to her, "And his name is Moriarty. And I can, but I think it's a wonderful noise."

Nikki sighed. "Excuse me, could you please move?" Andrea said in an irritated voice. "Some of us want on the train," "Oh... sorry," Nikki walked down the hall, looking for a compartment. She wanted to sit alone, but found none empty. So she went back to the compartment with only two people in it. "May I please sit here?" she asked quietly, indicating the far seat.

"I see no problem," August said "We're all kinda strangers in here so far," She felt Ngaio reach the top of her head and said "If you don't mind the three of us then sure."

Violet smiled and sat across from her. "Well, I'm sorry no one else has come to talk to you, but I'm a first year, too. My name is Violet."
Ryan finally entered the compartment where Eric and Liz were talking, Lynn following him. She stopped in the door. "Ry... You told Mum you didn't hang around with their lot," she said. Ryan sat down, then looked up at her, silent.

"Pleasure to meet Violet," August said, calming to her normal composer "My names August," she turned to the girl at the door "And you are?"

"Um... My names Nikki," she said, going over and sitting down in the seat by the window.
Andrea just barely managed to get her luggage onto the train with her, and went to find a compartment. Unlike Nikki, she wanted a relitivley full compartment, and finally stopped at Lynns. "Can I sit here, or is this seat taken?" she asked nicely.

"Our lot?" Ericken exclaimed, glaring at the girl who was standing at the entrance. The displeasure he was feeling was obvious on his face. Liz peeked behind the rude girl to see another, nicer-looking girl.
"You can sit here," Liz said. As an afterthought, she added a friendly, but small, smile.

"Any idea on your houses?" August said, trying to keep a conversation going, like Boggy told her. She sat across from Nikki, she having the other window seat, swearing Ngaio got sick without being by a window.

"Thanks," Andrea smiled and sat down in the seat by the door, intending to listen to their conversation. What lot? what was she talking about?
"I...don't know," Nikki said quietly. "Ravenclaw?" she made it sound like a question

"And you vi-o-let?" August said, pronouncing each syllable as if they were different words.

"Yes, your lot. You lied to Mum, Ry. You said you weren't friends with the mudblood." Lynn glared at Eric.
"Uh.. My house is in Kingston," Violet replied nervously.

"And what the hell's wrong with being muggle-born, kid?" Eric demanded, standing. Liz grabbing his arm was the only thing keeping him from drawing his wand. Her big brother's hand was gripping the handle of his wand like it was a gun.

Thank you! Andrea was soo glad she'd picked this compartment. If she'd said she was muggle born, that would've put an end to her right quick. ok, rule number one: to be important, you've got to have a wizard in your family.

August looked at her and said "No way!" She was utterly surprised "That's where I live! Well in the area, not your house" she paused and said "Your parents none magics folks then?"
