Walking back towards the compartment, Emma almost tripped over a cute tabby which was scampering quickly across the train. A lady was running after the cat, and in the end caught it by grasping it's tail and pulling it towards her. Shrugging at this obvious sign of cruelty, Emma remembered she left her bag in the bathrooms and went back to retrieve it.
Orpheus was growling when she came back into the compartment, only calming down when Pandora's familiar hand stroked his back soothingly. Emma looked for the cause of the growls, and saw in Mariza's lap the rebel tabby she had seen.
"Oh! The cat," She blurted out, before she could stop herself. "It's erm...very cute." She didn't want Mariza to start getting worried. "Is it Mercedes?"

Sonic hooted noisily in his cage. Gerek opened the cage and the large Blue owl flew out and landed on his arm. He petted it affectionately. He then took out a piece of paper and started writing on it. " Hello conductor." "How long will it be to we get to Hogwarts?" Gerek strapped the note to the owl's foot and patted it saying "Fly this to the train conductor." The owl took flight and flew out the open compartment door. A minute later Sonic came swooping in through the door with a note attached to its foot.
Gerek detached the note and read out loud "Yes we will be there shortly." Then write as he finished by coincidence or not he felt the train start to slow down.

As the train slowed, Pandora stood and began packing her things back into her large black trunk. The silver gilding on it’s corners glinted in the light of the sconces and the leather on it’s outside had a strange sheen of green that flashed across the otherwise ebony surface when it moved. Pandora tucked the large leather book back into the depths of the trunk as well as the leather pouch containing Orpheus’ treats. He looked up almost forlornly as she tucked the treat pouch away and then hopped down and went to the door to wait patiently. Pandora finished tidying up her area and she checked herself one more time to make sure her robes were straight and proper. Satisfied she presented a good image, Pandora lowered herself back down into the seat, primly crossed her legs, gracefully folded her hands in her lap and lifted her hear just so. She sat like that, as if somewhere between preparing herself for a royal coronation and looking like she was waiting for someone to take a picture. The time had come for the rest of Hogwarts to be made aware of her entrance to their ranks. She would soon be among Slytherins. Among her own.

Emma rushed around hurridly as the train slowed. Where was her Wand? Her quills? After settling Armani next to Sonic in their cages, she gave both of them a quick treat and then sat down, glancing at everyone else as she did. Why was it only she who was so un-tidy? Then she grinned as she found a pack of explosing snap in her bag.
"Gerek, Pandora, Mariza? Who wants a game?"

[marizalibra]

Mariza shook her head at the offer of exploding snap, one she always loast and two Mercedes didn't like the sound. She took out a brush out of her bag and brushed Mercedes beautiful fur.

Gerek walked slowly around the room picking up his items. He shut Sonics cage and put it next to his trunk. He pulled his wand out and put it in the trunk. He then reconsidered and took it back and put it into his pocket. He threw the smelly bag of dead rats back into the trunk and closed it tightly.

Gerek sat back down on his seat. He couldn't wait until he became a Slytherin. He would make his place there and soon everybody would know him as they knew Harry Potter.
Still he could have fame and loyal friends but what he really wanted was to be noticed more by Mariza. He then shook his hair. It flew everywhere around his head. Gerek looked like a rock star at the moment. Gerek pleased with his looks and how he would represent calmed down.

The squeal of metal on metal sounded as the brakes were applied to the train’s wheels. A hiss of steam and the cry of a whistle sounded to signify they had arrived at Hogsmeade. Soon elves would arrive and thier bags would be moved to the castle for them. Pandora stood up calmly and without waiting for the others, she strode to the door and threw it open. Orpheus, who had been pacing in front of the hatch finally made his escape and disappeared into the crowd gathering in the hallway. Pandora straightened her robes one more time, checked outside the door to see who was around and then sauntered out into the hallway. Another first year was callously pushed aside as she disappeared around the corner and moved out of view, leaving the disgruntled person staring after her.


Pandora had arrived at Hogwarts.

The train stopped. Gerek got up and strode to the door. "I hope to see you again." he said smoothly to Mariza. "And you to." he said nodding at Emma. "Goodbye." Gerek walked out into the packed halls and disappeared. He was so happy. Finally after the long train ride he had made three friends and

He had finally Arrived at Hogwarts.

The train and stopped and so did Mariza's heart with it. Gerek had already left when she got up. She gathered together her stuff and lead Mercedes out of the train. She was excited and scared at the same time.
Wonder where I go? She thought as she looked around the platform. There was a very large man yelling loudly for first years to come to him so with her fears behind her she scuttled through the crowd to meet him.

Armani flew loyaly into her cage as Emma guestured to it, and waited patiently while Emma sorted through her things, slinging a small, brown bag over her shoulder. The others had already left, so she was standing alone in the carriage. It had been a good ride, better than she could have thought. So, with her three new friends (yes, even Pandora) she and Armani made their way out of the train.
