A Jelly bean walks on a train, what a joke!
Juniper gripped her luggage in her hand, the luggage that had stickers slapped all over it. Here, there, everywhere! It was a fine accessory, and really, if you don't have smiley face stickers on your luggage, who even are you? But there was no comment on that. What even was this world? Apparently, her mom was from here! What the heck mom? Way to give her a heads up about this. You know, this crazy place. For example, Juniper
just
ran
into
a
wall
to
get
here. A brick wall! That should of broke her rib cage! Or something! But it didn't hurt a single bit, and that was weird. Like, what the heck? Okay, let's be honest. It did hurt when she tripped into the wall and landed on her knees, but the bricks didn't bruise her, nothing about that wall had hurt.
Either she was hallucinating and currently lying with a concussion by a brick wall, or this was real. She looked around. People wore pointy witch hats, and Juniper wondered what costume store got lucky to have so many customers. It wasn't even Halloween yet, not even October!
She was definitely hallucinating. On the bright side, she got to skip school while she lay in a hospital bed, imagining she was looking at a magical train that would take her away to a magical school where she learned witchcraft! Wow! This is 100% realistic, like, come on?
She shrugged. She would play along with her weird dream. She walked along the train she was surely imagining, missing her friends. She wondered if they would be in her hospital room when she woke up. If so, she hoped they brought Jellybeans.
It was a joke. Juniper Kelly... J.kelly... Jelly... Jelly bean?
It was a creative name.
She sat in an empty compartment, and the seats were rather comfy.

A Jelly bean walks on a train, what a joke!
A small girl, no older than 11 years old, opens the door slowly. As if something was going to jump out at her on the other side. She sees a girl of red hair, perhaps around her age, already seated.
"Oh, hello! They have us seated together."
Her brown hair is tied loosely into a pony tail; little bits of hair falling to the side. She was in a rush this morning... worried she would not make it to the Hogwarts Express on time through Platform 9 3/4. Fortunately, she was able to catch the train before its depart. It was a long travel from her small country side outside Dublin, Ireland... Making it to London... The hectic atmosphere of the train station... She was happy that she could finally relax.
Her luggage was a pain, dark leather... With a bit of wear and tear to it. And in the other hand, Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them by Newt Scamander.
"First year at Hogwarts?" She hoped to start a conversation with her new travelling companion. "Same! To think we got into the best wizarding school in the world? I'm Jade! Jade Noir from Ireland." She straightens herself on the opposite row.

A Jelly bean walks on a train, what a joke!
@Jade NoirJuniper sat up as the door slid open to reveal a brunette. Well, this girl seemed nice, even if Juniper was sure she was imagining all of this. "Hi! I'm Juniper! Or June, or Juni, but my friends call me Jelly bean." She watched the girl walk in and take a seat. Maybe this girl was her imaginary friend because Juniper was still convinced she was hallucinating.
The girl had a nice face, and Juniper smiled at the girl happily, swinging her feet that didn't reach the floor. "Are you real? Or am I imagining you, too? Pity if you aren't you seem like a nice person to meet in real life. " She said, making a total fool of herself. "My mom is from this world, you see, but I still think it's all a hig joke and that I'm currently in a concussion from running in a brick wall." Yup, she got right to the point.
That was Juni for you.
She looked out the window happily. "Yup yup! I am! I'm so excited, to be honest! This is the best wizarding school? Cool beans! It's nice to know that at least I'm going to the best imaginary school there is. "
She looked at the girl. "Same here! I'm from Dublin? Where are you from?" She asked eagerly, happy to meet someone else from Ireland. She could hear the irish accent in the girl's voice, it was nice.
"So how long have you known about this world?" She asked, waving her hand around her. "it's all new for me!"
She remembered something suddenly and reached into her bag. "Have you seen these things?! They're like frogs! But they're CHOCOLATE! And they can MOVE too! It's so so so cute! I'm kind of scared to eat them, but my mom packed them for me. Do you want one? You try it first, so I can make sure they're okay to eat." She said.

*What a peculiar girl* Jade thought to herself. Nevertheless, she is friendly and willing to have a chat instead of sitting in awkward silence.
"Jelly Bean!" She giggled, " I can call you Jelly, I think that it is adorable!"
She laughs "I am real. Although last I checked I was real." Jade pinches herself. "Op! See? Pretty real, in fact. Just a girl like you. And I assure you, despite what you would possibly hear from a muggle, Hogwarts is not an imaginary school. In fact, my mom went there. She was sorted into Ravenclaw when she was my age. Im hoping to get into it myself."
She smiled, "it's so nice to finally meet someone else from Dublin. I am from Dublin, too. Well, outside of Dublin. I grew up on a farm with a lot of cows and chickens and cats... and two dogs."
"Known about the world?" She gives a bit of a side eye. "Well, I guess you could say since I was a baby
"
Jade looks at the box with the little chocolate frog inside. "Oh my mother told me about those. She said that they are not made with real cow milk, so I can eat them. Also yes! They are not real frogs. I had to make sure that was clear as well. "
Jade reaches for a chocolate frog that was offered to her. She opens the little box, and grabs the little frog. It was a squirmy thing and she was a little apprehensive with eating it. But she took a bite. It was dark chocolate, but super satisfying! Like a hint of hazelnut and spice. It was fantastic.
"It's amazing!!'

@Jade Noir"I know, right! It's because my last name is Kelly, so it's Juniper Kelly or J.Kelly. It's funny, isn't it!" She wrinkled her nose, smiling to the young girl. Who was apparently real, some how. Juniper raised an eyebrow. "Hmm If you say so." She said skeptically. She watched the girl pinch herself to prove she was real. Just to be sure, Juniper flicked a piece of lint at her to see if it would fly through her.
It didn't. Instead, it bounced of the very solid, very real girl. "Huh, I guess you are real!" She exclaimed. "So it IS real? My mom never went to hogwarts, but she's from the magical world." She said, with pity or her mom.
"Woah! Dublin buddies!!!" She said, clapping. "farm buddies!!" She bounced in her seat. "I have only one dog, though. It belongs to my mom, but I do have a pig named Hamm, you know, from toy story, and she's gotten so big! Of course... she's still small! And we have chickens! Lot's of chickens. My favorite is nugget, he is the sweetest." She ranted.
"Oh. Phew.I would feel guilty about eating frogs, they're so cuddly." She said, reaching for a candy herself. It squirmed in her hand. :Sorry, mr. fake-frog" She proceeded to bite its head off.
It was delicious. "WOAH!" She inhaled her candy, reaching for her bag and dumping the rest on the seat. "This should be enough for the both of us!" She said, reaching for another one.

Jade was amazed over the amount of chocolate frogs Jelly was carrying. "Wow, you're rich in chocolate!" she laughed. "You could buy a whole country if chocolate frogs were a currency."
Then she remembered what her mother told her about chocolate frogs. You could collect cards of famous wizards throughout history.
"Did you get any good cards? Mother told me she had a whole collection but unfortunately she lost them. There is only one car that I truly want! And that is of the brilliant wizard author and adventurer, Newt Scamander!"
She pulls out Fantastic Beats and Where To Find Them from her luggage. She begins to show Jelly all the pictures of the magical creatures.
"Newt Scamander traveled to 5 different continents just so he could write this book and educate the wizards and witches about magical creatures. He was an innovator, for sure! And he also wrote A Children’s Anthology of Monsters, which my mum read to me."
She looks at the pictures a bit and then back at Jelly. "If Hogwarts recommends his book to be taught to their students, you know he has to be the best!"
Jade puts away the book. "Do you like to read?"

@Jade Noir"Yeah! I know right! I have so so so much!" She widened her eye as she looked at her pile, opening a new box. Jade was right, she had so many! She reminded herself to thank her mom for this lovely gift for traveling. "We can be sure we won't accidentally fall asleep on the way there, then we would miss the view! This candy will keep us awake!" She took her pointer finger and her thumb on each hand and used them to widen her eyes by pulling at the skin around it. "We'll be widdeeee awake." She smiled at Jade.
Jade asked Juniper a question and Juniper looked around for her discarded boxes. "You get cards? Like pokemon? " She asked excitedly. She found her empty box and shook it above the seat so a card fell out. "Cool beans! I got... Mont... a.... goo... Knight-lee" She sounded out the name as she spoke. "What kind of name is Montague Knightley?!" She turned the card over, and read the back. "Undefeated wizard's chess guy."
She turned to Jade as she told her about the one card she wanted. "Newt? Like Fig Newton's? " She joked, looking at the pictures Jade was showing her.
"It sounds like you've got a crush!" She declared playfully. "I haven't read any of the books on the list yet, do you think we needed to? " She shrugged.
"I do like to read! But not as much as I love to explore and learn cool things!"
She fished around in her bag. "I like books that are funny, full of mystery, or greek or Norse mythology. " She showed Jade her book. "This is called Magnus Chase, it's sooo funny!"

A Jelly bean walks on a train, what a joke!
Jade looks at the card Jelly was describing, "Montague Knightly? Hmm Ive never heard such a wizard. Maybe we will learn more about him at Hogwarts"
Jade let out a smirk and rolled her eyes. She was a bit off put by the comment of her hero being called a Fig Newton, but she also knew Jelly was innocent. A part of her personality Jade needs to understand better. " Nooooo, not Fig Newton. NEWT ... Scamander. A very well respected wizard."
Jade laughed, "Nooooo, I do not have a crush on a wizard. Especially one that is perhaps not alive anymore. But I guess you could say that I am very much in love with his work and studies and the ability to do what no other wizard could do. Instead of living in fear of these creatures, we can now learn of them. So that we can all co-exist as beings on this planet. That also goes with Muggles.... Maybe someday the wizarding world and Muggle world will co-exist."
Jade took a moment to look out the window. Should saw that the train was making its way past a body of water. The sun shined through the window, but also cast a glaze of shimmer on the water. Like crystals.
Jade's attention was now on Jelly's book. "Magnus Chase? Ive never heard of that one. Brilliant! What is it about that makes it so funny?

@Jade NoirJuniper shrugged. "Maybe! He must of been really good!!" She said. She looked back at the card, wondering what it would be like to have her face on one. She could see it now: Juniper Kelly: The world's first human Jelly Bean. A movement caught her eye, and she was sure she was imagining it. She must of been. She blinked over and over, then looked at the card again. No, she was actually seeing this. THE PICTURE WAS MOVING. "What the HECK?!" She looked abashed. "THE PICTURE MOVED!!!" She said excitedly. For this was a new discovery.
She eyed the card but put it down to listen to Jade. ""Hmmm are you sure?" She said skeptically. "respected wizard, hm?" She repeated. "Are you suuuureeeee you don't have a crush on him? " She asked, raising an eyebrow.
"I see. So... you like magical creatures... and stuff? You sound like those fancy ladies on those documentaries about sea creatures and stuff. But I agree too! My grandma was also very supportive of magical creatures." She piped up.
Juniper shoved another chocolate frog in her mouth as Jade looked out the window. "How long do you think this ride will take?" She asked with her mouth full. She was eager to get the Hogwarts, after all.
Jade looked at Juniper's book, and apparently has never heard of the series. Juniper swallowed her chocolate frog before speaking."It's sooooo good! It's so funny because like the main character has a good humor and stuff! And the author always makes his character so funny! He makes the craziest or scariest things funny! " She hopped up and down in her seat. "I really like the books!"

A Jelly bean walks on a train, what a joke!
The boy looked frightened and terrified. A short boy, walking onto a train for the first time, and it was a magical train. Was he to be favored, or hated? Was he going to be the best, or the worst student to ever come at the school. He screamed, when he boarded the train, as the whistle to the train was terrifying him. Truly, the boy must've been a wimp, but then again, he was wild, and he wouldn't deny that. He was terrified of new things, but he would eventually get used to it.
They were expected to ride the train to Hogwarts, back home, back to hogwarts, and back home, all in one year, and that was not including several trips, like Hogsmeade. Cody walked through the compartments on the train, smiling, but his eyes said otherwise, as they were wide, and you could see faint waterlines down his face, revealing that he was in tears once.
He came across a woman selling candy, and without listening to her, he grabbed out seven sickles, and gave it to the woman. He recieved three Chocolate Frogs in return. Maybe it was expensive on the Hogwarts Express, maybe it was expensive elsewhere, but he didn't care. He didn't know what the chocolate frogs were, as he assummed they were like Muggle candies, like Chocolate covered Crickets, Honey ants, and Rock candy.
He sat down in a compartment with two girls already sitting there. He waved, then smiled, revealing his yellowish orange teeth. He had to brush his teeth, but truth be told, he was extremely excited to go to a magic school, an elite one at that, and forgot to brush his teeth the past few days. He gave the red headed girl, who seemed to be a slight bit taller, Then he proceeded to give one to the girl who seemed to crush on Newt Scamander.
Mentioning: @Juniper Kelly @Jade Noir
