Mark arrived at Platform 9 3/4 with his brother and mother. Since his father was working and couldn't make it. Mark didnt mind though.
He and his brother gave their mother one last hug before boarding the Hogwarts Express. Mark parted ways with James since James was going to sit with his friends.
Mark, now alone, began searching for an empty compartment to sit in. Once he reached the end of the train, he saw an empty compartment. He opened the doors and sat down.
He began looking out the window. He stopped looking out the window when he heard the doors open. He turned and saw the Tolley Lady.
"Anything off the trolley dear?" She asks
"Yes, may I please have some chocolate frogs and beans?" Mark asks
"Of course." She says.
The trolley lady handed Mark his frogs and beans, and Mark payed her back. When she left, Mark opened one box of beans and took one out. He put it in his mouth and ate it.
"I got chewing gum. I love this flavor." Mark thought
He than looked back out the window and looked at all of the nature while the train was going to Hogwarts. Mark isn't only excited, but he's also nervous as well.

Lilura was walking with her mother as her mother bickered along about Hogwarts. Lilura really loved her mother, but it was getting somewhat annoying at that point to be hearing all of her stories. She was curious, but she didn't need to hear her mother's entire story.
"Okay mom! I'm sure I understand everything, especially not going to the Ferbbiden Forest. I know." Lilura said to look at her mother and slightly smile at her.
"It's getting annoying, isn't it?" Her mother asked as she chuckled, looking at the train, before looking back at her daughter. "Well, this is our goodbye. Have fun and don't get into much trouble, okay? Your father and I will be sending you letters to see how you are doing. I'm sure you will fit in just nicely; you'll love it there."
Lilura looked at her mother and nodded at her words. "I know. I am quite excited. I will send an owl later in the night." She said she hugged her mother before going into the train as she walked around looking for an empty cart or just a cart she could fit in. As she walked around, she saw one boy that looked her age, and it was just him in the cart. "I hope he's okay with it. I mean, the cart is empty, so I'm sure he will be okay. Right? There is only one way to find out." She thought.
"Hey... Could I sit with you? All carts are quite full, alright."She asked while looking at him, waiting for his answer before she could walk in.

Mark stopped looking out the window when he once again heard the compartment doors open. He turned his head and saw a girl around his age standing at the door way. He than heard her ask if she can come in, he nodded and gestured to a seat before saying,
"Of course. I'll feel bad if I said no, especially since there are no more free compartments. Oh, ya, by the way, the trolley lady already came."
Mark had no idea why he added that the trolley lady had already come. Clearly, the girl wasn't asking if the trolley lady had already come or not, but Mark had just felt like saying it. He than looked back out the window.
He didn't exactly know what else to say, so he just decided to look out the window. After a while of looking out the window, Mark got bored. He decided to take out another bean and he ate it. He than decided to hand the box to the girl before asking,
"Want one?"
Mark had no idea if the girl already knows about the beans or not, so he decided to wait and find out. Now, hows he going to find out, is if she asks him what he's handing her. He than decdied it'll be a good idea to introduce himself, so he said,
"Also, I'm Mark, Mark Myers. And you are?"

Lilura looked at him as he talked, and once he said it was okay, she walked into the cart to take a seat, but she seemed quite upset that the trolley lady had already passed by; it was kind of obvious considering the location of the cart. "Well, that's a shame! I really wanted a chocolate frog, not only for the cards but for the chocolate too!" She said, closing the cart door behind her, to put her trunk away while sitting down.
"Well, this is some uncomfortable silence." She thought about looking around before looking out the window for a moment, not seeing anything new yet."Huh?" She turned to look at him once she heard him ask something, which she didn't exactly understand as she was deep in her thoughts, but once she saw him extending an arm at her and offering the box of beans, she understood what his question was.
"Sure, thanks." She took the box and picked one bean to eat, and the flavor she got was grass—not the best flavor, but definitely not the worst one there could be. She gave him the box of beans once more after eating that one bean.
"Nice to meet you, Mark. I'm Lilura, Lilura M'Baku." She said it with a smile and stretched a hand at him for a shake. "So I'm guessing your family also went to Hogwarts? Just asking, my mom was very excited; she could really shut up about it. At this point, I think I know everything without being there yet." She chuckled at her words.

Mark saw the girl walk into the compartment, set her trunk down, and sat down. He also noticed that she was upset, then heard her speak. He thought for a moment before saying,
"Well, I guess your lucky then. I got a lot of chocolate frogs. I can share them with you. As well as the beans that I got."
Mark noticed that the girl was looking out the window. He then saw her look back at him after he asked if she wanted a bean. He felt the box being taken out of his hand, then given back after she had taken a bean. Mark smiled at her before saying,
"No problem. Anyways, would you like a chocolate frog?"
Mark put the box of beans down and took Lilura's hand and shook it. Then let go of her hand and closed the book on beans. He then heard her ask a question, so he waited for her to be done before saying,
"Pleasure to meet you too, Lilura. Both my parents went to Hogwarts. Mother a Ravenclaw. My father is a Gryffindor. And my older brother James is a Hufflepuff. Honestly, I won't be surprised if I get into Slytherin. Oh, cool. My parents and my brother didn't tell me a lot about Hogwarts, but they told me most things that I should know."

"I'd love a chocolate frog; no need for the beans, thanks." She said as he offered to give her a chocolate frog and some beans, but she only really wanted a chocolate frog as it was one of her favorite treats, and of course she collected the cards they had as an extra.
"Oh I see, so all of you come from different houses. My mom was a Hufflepuff, actually, but I don't know what house I could be in. My father, on the other hand, was attending Uagadou." She said while looking at him and moved her head to the side. "My twin sister is actually with my father right now; she's also going to attend Uagadou. Let's say she loved being in my father's village so much that she basically spent all of the time there, so she got a token, meaning she was going into Uagadou, and I got my acceptance letter to Hogwarts. I do wonder what house I could be in; my family has for a long time been going into Slytherin. Except my mom, of course." She added, looking out of the window as the train started moving. When it started to move, they could see the scenery change and even the weather change from place to place.
"Pretty much, I think I know way too much of the school already, at least of what my mom experienced there. I wonder if it would be very different for me if I got to find new things or just get into new troubles." She said this, moving her head from side to side. "Guess only time will tell."

"Alright." Mark says. He then took a chocolate frog box and handed the box to Lilura. He then opened his own box, ate the frog, and looked at his card. He noticed that he had gotten a vampire. He didn't mind getting a vampire, he actually likes getting vampire chocolate frog cards.
"That's cool! Honestly, I wasn't supposed to attend Hogwarts, but my parents decided I should since I did get my Fiom here. But, if I had gotten it in Japan, then I'll be happily on my way to Mahoutokoro. My best friend goes there. He was born in Japan, so I was only able to see him when I went to Japan or when he comes here." Mark says.
He has heard of the wizarding school, Uagadou before. But, he's never been to Africa, so he has no idea what it's like. He has been to America, so he's seen Ilvermorny before. But, he's never been inside of it. His thoughts of all the wizarding schools he's been to/know of have been distracted by Lilura speaking again.
"Wow. Well then, if my brother still wasn't at school, I might've asked you for help. But, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to know where all my classes are with my brother's help." Mark says.

"Why do you think you should have gone to Japan?" She asked while looking at him, moving her head to the side as she took the chocolate frog in her hands. She didn't understand why he said he was supposed to go to Japan but then ended up at Hogwarts. "Doesn't Japan only let people into their school who are exclusively from Japan? Why would his older brother be here then?" She asked herself while looking at him with a raised eyebrow.
"Oh, well, um... Yeah, I know quite a bit about Hogwarts already. I'm quite prepared for when we get there, which shouldn't be long at this point; I'm pretty sure we're just a few minutes away. I know the train doesn't take that long and will get there by night."She said this while looking out of the window. "We should get ready soon so that we can have our robes already once we get there because there will be quite a commotion that I know of. There will be lots of people leaving the train." She said, turning to look at him as she saved the chocolate frog for when they were at Hogwarts and in their bedroom. She wondered what house she would be placed in; she really didn't have much of a house in mind, but she did think Slytherin would be a good choice, especially because her grandparents from her mother's side were Slytherin.

"Pretty much because my parents were thinking about moving to Japan when I was born, but they decided not to after I got my first instance of magic. My brother was already going to Hogwarts then, but my mother would've easily moved to Japan with me. I could go to school with my childhood best friend Yuta Osaki. He's the same age as I am, just born a year before." Mark explains why he should've gone.
He wasn't expecting a question like that, but he didn't mind. He liked the answer that he said to Lilura, but he also didn't know why he wasn't able to go to Mahoutokoro, since when he last asked his parents, he didn't exactly get a great answer.
"True. I'm very excited about the sorting. I mean, I could pretty much be in any house. Ya, we should go and get changed now." Mark says.
He got his robes out of his trunk and walked over to the bathroom. Once he changed into his robes, he went back into the compartment and took his trunk down. He looked back at Lilura and asked,
"Need any help with taking your trunk down?"
