Open Car of 1st Years
-The morning sun is bright, and the wind was high that morning on the platforms between 9 and 10. Many muggles walked past the spot that many eager and nervous first years waited each year to go to their favorite place in all the wizarding world and never even realized. Most just sipped their coffees, straightened their papers when they saw a bright-eyed child carrying an owl, and never wondered why they never saw these same children on the trains with them.
-A small shabby boy with long dark hair approaches the platform to school with books under one arm and a small cage with a dark nearly black owl under the other. The owl was hooting excitedly and seemed to be very eager to leave its cage and do some flying. Attempting to calm the owl, the lanky boy feeds her a pellet and she settles momentarily greedily devouring the morsel of food. It was odd that the hat was sending letters to tell students where they were sorted to this year and not allowing them to be sorted, but Tom thought nothing of it. Spotting what he thinks is friendly faces, he approaches other first years hoping to make a good first impression and maybe even a friend or two. -

As I was speaking to my father who was dropping me off that day I turned around when I noticed another first year I walk over to them while my dad is getting everything ready for my first trip to hogwarts
Hi there, my name is Amanda. It's going to be my first year at Hogwarts. I'm really excited to go but I'm definitely going to miss my parents and my muggle friends. I am excited to make new friends, but I'm definitely a bit nervous about being in a whole new environment. Are you excited for any preticular class? I'm excited for Care of Magical Creatures. I'm bummed that you need to be a third year to take that class. Do you also have any particular class you are not looking forward to? I want to try out all of the classes and see what each one is about
finding herself rambling on she looked a little embarrassed since she knew she needed to give you a chance to answer the questions she asked instead of just continuing on
I'm sorry I'm rambling on. it's nice to already meet some other new people here though I know we will have a great time.

Rose (Rosie) Johnson walked through the portal, heaving her trunk, Cora besides her with her own trunk, and cat. "Fun, huh?" Cora asked, excited, shaking her long strawberry blonde hair behind her, she set her trunk on the ground as she combed a hand through her hair, clutching the poor Midnight Stalker.
Rosie grimaced, she didn't like seeing animals getting hurt, but she hid her face from her older sister. 'Poor Moon, he looks so squished,' She thought, pity for the pure black tom.
"Uh, sure, of course," Rosie said, unexciting but nervous, clutching her book to her chest, and hauling her trunk with the other hand. Rosie was a quiet girl, who rather read all day than spend a day in the sun. She groaned and covered her eyes with her hand as she reached the sunny light.
'Ugh, why did the sun have to be so shiny?' Rosie asked herself as she waited for her siblings to come through the portal and they could load on the train.
"Coral, why do they have to take forever, the train's gonna leave without them!" Rosie asked her sister, hoping for a real answer.
"I dunno," Coral's welsh accent made her words sound swished and a careless mutter. Rosie rolled her eyes. She was used to this kind of response, her siblings neglected her alot.
Rosie looked ahead, saw a girl and a boy around the age of her talking, as if they were sharing secrets and gossip within the darkness of night. She sighed, she wished she could have that kind of friendship...

I don't have one either I've looked around but everywhere on the train seems to be full there are sure alot of students in hogwarts I'm not used to going to school with this many other kids. it's a bit different, but making friends with older kids sounds like it would be quite useful if you want to secretly learn spells in advance. I'm excited to join a house team, maybe dueling. it seems like it could be quite fun. are you interested in joining any particular teams at school?
She followed you to the only empty compartment there was on the train and took a seat
I hear that the trip to hogwarts is a long one but it seems like it won't be boring since we'll have each other to talk I've heard about the different snacks there are and that some of them are pretty strange and I'm excited to try them out.
she got settled in her seat, looked out the window of the train, and waved at her father, who left the way they had arrived at the platform from.
Did you get the letter with the house you were placed in? it had my father confused since they always had a sorting ceremony.

Rosie saw the window crank down and the boy speaking to her. "Hel-Hello, I-I'm Ro-Rose but y-you can, uh, c-call me Rosie. And, uh, su-sure, ju-just let me h-help, um, my sib-siblings g-et on, the-there of-ofter there," Rosie said, nervously as she stuttered, shy as she was.
Rosie looked young but she also looked like she was the mother of her siblings. How she ordered them, pushed them onto the train, how she threatened them. How she didn't stutter around her siblings.
The whistle sounded just as Rosie got Raya on the train. She walked to the car where the boy and the girl was. Rosie sighed and thought, 'Phew, at least them and I got on,'.
"H-hi, er, ag-again,". Rosie stammered when she opened the car door. She set her heavy trunk at her feet as she sat down,
Rosie was about to say something to Tom and Amanda when a girl with green eyes and dirty blonde hair. It was Raya. "Hey, baby sister, who're sittin' round?!" Rosie rolled her eyes and ignored the annoying 2nd year Ravenclaw's Welsh accent.
"Sor-Sorry, they ca-can, uh, be a pa-pain som-sometimes," Rosie said, nervous what was to happen next and waited for the boy or the girl to say something.

Tom turns and sets all his things in the overhead compartment and then turns to the two others and offers them a few biscuits from his pack. His bags contain no packed lunch from parents as first years would usually carry onto the train for their first ride due mainly to the fact that his mother was such a busy woman that she hadn't cooked them a meal in years. He seems to be attempting to hide his face and then briskly changes the subject after mentioning his sister.I understand, my sister is a real git sometimes too. She's a Raven claw 4th year but she's really ill and couldn't attend this year. The school was kind enough to send all her work and tests home so she can still get credit, but we don't know when she will be able to attend again.
Would you two care for one? They're a muggle treat but my dad is partial to them and so I kind of became the same way. They have a chocolate like outer shell and a sweet soft cream in the middle. My dad is always bringing some muggle treat home, he has a friend that works in the muggle studies department and they always share their favorite foods, teams, and devices found in the muggle world.

speakingRosie shoved Raya away with a hard shove, and Raya said,"Baby sister, what did I do?" Rosie knew that Raya was just bring annoying so she gave her sister another hard shove, Raya stuck out her tongue while Rosie glared. "Out," Rosie said, giving her sister another shove. "Fine, be like that, " Raya twirled around and made sure her hair ruffled and slap Rosie in the face. She gasped as the hair slapped her face.
"Aww, th-that's sad," Rosie said, after she had calmed her self. 'I feel bad for him, not having his siblings with him, even though mine are a pain in the neck, She thought.
She noticed how the boy, Tom, changed the subject quickly and she noticed how there was a chocolate treat in front her face. "O-Oh, I-I'm fine, but th-that sounds f-fun," Rosie stuttered, once again. She inwardly groaned and pinched her thigh. She hoped either one didn't see her pinch her thigh.
Rosie hated stuttering herself, she thought it was just showing weakness. But she pushed the thought away as she leaned back on the train seat and thought about Hogwarts. 'Its gonna be fun, even with zero friends, zero friends, yes, of course its gonna be fun, with zero friends... ....'

Open Car of 1st Years
As the train began it's journey through the serene countryside, a light rain began to patter the windows of the train and brought on an air of sleepiness that radiated through each car. One by one student chatter began to die down and the cars began to grow more and more quiet. The journey itself form the King's Crossing station to Hogwarts was a long one, and right when Tom thought he could no longer keep his eyes open, a knock on the car door startled him and everyone inside.
A kind faced witch pushing a trolley filled with every kind of wizarding treat imaginable strolls into the car and the colors and whirring and movement from all the wizarding candies sent Tom's eyes rolling. He had never seen so many in one place before, and at home his dad mainly stocked muggle treats ever since he ate a Puking Pastie once made by the Weasley Wizard Wheeze's shop by mistake and ended up at St. Mungo's for a few days from all the vomiting he'd done.Anything from the trolley dears? Sweets and treats here!
WORDS: 210You guys getting anything from the trolley? I think I have enough for a chocolate frog, I really want to start collecting.

speakingRosie looked out the window even though she by the door. She sighed quietly and then quickly regretted sighing, she didn't want strangers (to her) know that she didn't have any friends. She quickly covered it with a well put out cough. Then she played with her dirty blonde hair for a bit, spacing out, not knowing she was looking at the doors.
When Rosie heard the door open, she picked her trunk up, placed it besides her on the seat, picked her legs up, and scooted them close to her chest so the witch or herself wouldn't get hurt with the trolley. "U-um, n-no, tha-thank you, I'm-I'm not hun-hungry," Rosie said when Tom asked the other girl, Amanda and her if they were getting anything.
When the witch left, Rosie dozed off. Her hand on her trunk as she dozed, but her dozing was unsettling, she couldn't actually fall unto a good sleep but it was some sort of form of sleep.
She woke up with a starting squeak, more of a small scream, when the train passed a unsettling and unexpected bump."O-oh my g-gosh, I-I'm so so-sorry!" She exclaimed, scared, nervous, overwhelmed with everything, hating her stutter, and she knew she was naturally really shy with every besides her family so why did she hate her stutter and why did this unnatural fate and karma she had, had to happen now?
