Felissa smiled as she managed to cut him off. Of course, she didn't just want to go because they were blocking the corridor, but because she didn't want to be out in the open and talking about her family life. It ran through too many security risks. Of course, she had been careful so that no one would hear them, but she still felt odd. So the fact that he had agreed, albeit putting on a small play, made her feel at ease. She followed her, but not even a full step later, he seemed to have stopped. Felissa managed to avoid bumping into his large frame as she paid attention to what was happening. Curious, she tilted her head to the side - a habit she picked up from somewhere. It became second nature for her to do it. Though why would Caelum suddenyl stop like that? Did he have anything else to say? Or did he see someone familiar?

Her question was answered when he finally spoke. There was a momentary look of confusion on her face. But then she broke into a smile - probably the sincerest and biggest one she had ever given him, shortly followed by a giggle. It would seem that Caelum had managed to break her somehow. Though it only lasted for only a moment before she managed to recompose herself. "Caelum, my good friend, I would not expect anything less from you." She pointed out, patting his chest and offering him her genuine smile once more before it disappeared into her neutral face once more. "When push comes to shove, I know that I can always count on you." She continued. There were things she could only count on her brother for, but Caelum always came in the picture when everything went wrong. He was the kind of guy who looks out for his friends, and befriending him wasn't a bad idea at all. It was reassuring to hear that someone had their back. She was sure that at one point, they would have to fully resist the Dark Lady. With Felix's sense of justice and her personal hatred for anyone Voldemort-related, there were bound to be some conflicts and major clashes between them. While they would not outright attack the woman, she would at least make sure to try and protect the students as much as possible. Felissa would not stand to see her fellow students harmed. Not without its proper consequences.

Felissa had wondered why she took over Hogwarts instead of simply destroying it. It would have cut off the potential wizards and witches to their education and no one would know how to fight against her - or at least, there would be very few who would know. But maybe that was the reason. Was she trying to train them in her image? Felissa had never despised an idea so much in her life. The thought of working under her - under a Voldemort follower and murderer. But there was little to do, not when she was in so much power. No, they had to bade their time well. Felissa will not allow her to taint the halls of Hogwarts as Severus Snape... no, Voldemort had done - or even that Umbridge lady from before. Never again. Felissa would make sure of that fact.

Seeing as he had moved on with a pat on her shoulder, she began following behind him. Felissa's mind was going a mile a minute, thinking of various ways to annoy the dark witch without angering her too much, or finding out who was responsible. Felissa may have been a prefect, but she wasn't going to follow a usurper of the Hogwarts Headmistress position. That belonged to Professor McGonagall, and no one else. Since Caelum had found an empty compartment, Felissa entered. "Your mother gave you good manners lessons." She said before taking her seat and then adjusting her robes. She had a little more time before the Prefect Meeting so she decided to speak, "So, you were telling me about your 'badass' summer vacation."

Felix nodded at her. "Yeah, hopefully." He muttered. With the whole dark witch shebang going on, he didn't exactly know what kind of things he would be doing as Head Boy. He wanted to speak about it to the other prefects but he didn't know who he could trust. For all he knew, a Ravenclaw pureblood may have been supporting her, or a Hufflepuff Half-blood, or a Gryffindor elitist, or a Slytherin. He didn't know the other prefects too well, especially those who just came in for their fifth year. Felix knew he could trust his sister, Dominique and Bethany. His sixth year Hufflepuff prefects were quite trustworthy too, but he had yet to test that. Felix let out a sigh. He just wished that this whole dark witch thing would just end already. Last time someone tried to do what she did, they died. Voldemort was such a big influence, even after his death. It was a shame his name didn't just die with him.

"Sweet. Let's hurry up then." He said as he stowed away her stuff and then urging her to hurry up which was eventually helped by the fact that it was already nearing eleven and that meant the train was going to move - whether they wanted it to or not. "I feel bad for Cael though, since we have to go to the Prefect meeting later and leave him all alone~" He teased. It wasn't like the tough Hufflepuff wouldn't find a way to find some other companions. The guy knew almost everyone and befriended almost everyone - it's the main reason why he and Cael had gotten along so well, aside from the fact that they both previously played for the Hufflepuff Quidditch team.

He then peeked through the compartment doors to track down his sister. However, as he walked, his tone grew serious and it was obvious that he was in no rush as he walked. "You know you're one of the few people I do trust. Fully, I mean." He admitted to her. Though the particular reasoning here wasn't because she actually did something to earn this kind of trust, but because she was related to the affected people. He had his hands inside his pockets as he walked - his posture relaxed but also seemed tense. "You know about her, don't you? Morgana, the dark witch who took over the Ministry not too long ago." His tone was smooth, not showing much worry - though not really showing much emotion either. "Since she had recently laid claim upon Hogwarts, I need all the help I can get from the prefects... no, everyone. Since going is mandatory, we can't do anything about it, but I want everyone to stay safe. Try not to create too much ruckus, not until we're absolutely sure we can take her on."

He had no doubt that some would rise to the challenge - to defeat the dark witch like the students of Hogwarts defeated Voldemort before. That much was a given, and Felix wanted to aid them. But before that can become reality, they would need to practice. They needed to find those smart enough to outpace the enemy, and brave enough to not fear dying, loyal enough to stay and fight and cunning enough to get the upper hand. Felix was sure that most of the sixth years and seventh years would already be capable enough to fight, but the younger ones? They had to worry about them, and with the faculty being replaced with those who follow Morgana... well, it would be difficult to do so. They had to play their pieces correctly if they wanted minimal casualties.

They were dangerous, if they managed to take over the Ministry. Even his mother was on the run from them, and she was an amazing Auror. He didn't even know if he would survive by the end of their little rebellion - if there would be any. Felix gave her a smirk. "Honestly, this is the worst time to be Head Boy."

Sitting in the compartment Lucinda watched her cousin turn her head away from the window when she said hello. It was nice to see someone her own age smiling back at her. Her cousin even said hello back before asking how her morning was. Lucinda was unsure wether to be honest or lie or maybe just say it was none of her business, but she reminded herself this was family and she should be polite. “Well me and mother took a taxi here. Then walked through the barrier instead of just apparating strait to the platform” she said beaming with pride.

Pausing for a minute Lucinda realised that it would be polite to ask something back. She wondered what she should ask her, but she was struggling for a topic. Quidditch was something they usually talked about being on the Slytherin Quidditch team, but she decided against it wanting to talk about something different than the usual stuff they talked about when they saw each other. “Hmm... so how have you been since last year Evangelina” asking a rather cope out basic question seemed the best option to Lucinda.

Her laughter filled the air as she watched the boy popping bubbles. As the bubbles would disappear she would make more, her cat soon got bored with the bubbles and went to lay on her lap, curling into a ball of fur that seemed to pure at the slightest movement that Bethany made with her hands. "I'm glad that I can let you have some fun Alexi." She said and looked up at the Boy sitting across from her. "I love helping people maybe that's why they made me head girl..."

Evanglina BlackShe had to chuckle. "A taxi? Really? How exciting." Eva actually dididn't ike taxis, since most of them smelled pretty bad. But, for Lucinda to take one was a big deal. Lucinda was very prideful of her pureblood status, so Eva didn't really expect her to "stoop to that level". Then, Lucinda asked about how she had been. "Oh, my summer was fine. Me and Narcissa went to Spain for a few weeks, then on a cruise to see the Northern Lights. Then, I got to lounge around the house for the test of the summer," She said with a happy smile. "And I've gotten a new broom, since my old one was falling apart," She added with a chuckle. "How about you? How was your summer?" Inactive User 002

Alexi cooed a bit at the kitten, and reached out with one shaking hand to rub behind the small creature's ear, before he sat up again. He smiled at Bethany, and said, "I bet you're very helpful! Better then me anyways... I can bearly help myself..."

Alexi leaned back with a wince as he flexed his fingers a bit to work out some of the nerve pain he had. From inside his medical kit, a small alarm began to go off, and Alexi groaned. He opened the kit to reveal multiple sterile syringes, pill bottles, bandages, and testing equipment.

"Excuse me for a moment, Bethany, according to my alarm, I need to check my blood sugar," He said with a roll of his eyes. It was a stupid task for him. If it was high, then it was how he liked it.

Alexi pulled out one of the testers and a needle. He pricked his finger and squeezed out a drop of blood onto the tester. It was a special testing kit that he had. It had been modified by a mediwitch in his first year to work with magic, so he could use it at Hogwarts.

The tester soon showed his blood sugar levels to be at 122 mg/dL. That was way too high, and Alexi groaned. looked at his insulin, and felt his stomach twist in panic. He knew he needed to inject his insulin, but he felt like doing so would be a sign of weakness to himself. He wasn't ready to give up that control, so instead, Alexi packed up his kit and ignored the score.

"It's fine... I'm fine," He said, even though he most definitely wasn't fine. His hands were shaking, and almost every move made him wince from the pins and needles in his fingertips. Still, faced with this pain, and the deadly repercussions his choice could have, Alexi still refused to give himself the insulin he needed.

Bethany nodded and turned to her cat instead, it was funny how she had a small kitten and it was her last year in Hogwarts. She looked down at the watch she had on and sighed. It was time for her meeting with the Prefects and the Head boy. She smiled and stood up placing her hand on Alexi's shoulder. "I'm sorry Alexi, I have to go now but I'll be back in time to arrive at hogwarts. Can you watch Newman for me?" The redhead said with a smile and sat Newman down next to Alexi. "He shouldn't be too much trouble."

As Lucinda listened on to what Evangelina was saying thinking to herself that her cousin was pretty interesting. Lucinda even felt a bit jealous hearing about her going to Spain and to then later to see the northern lights. It was a bit hard for Lucinda as she had only gone away a couple of times mostly to international Quidditch matches. Not that she minded but it would be nice to do something different. What also peaked Lucinda’s interest was her cousins new broom which she was dying to ask what it was. Even though she wanted to talk about something other than Quidditch Lucinda couldn’t resist.

However when her cousin asked how her summer Lucinda she felt a knot form in her stomach. While her summer had been petty much uneventful there had been a few monumental things that had happened to her, also she had been worried about certain things. Pulling her legs up to her chest before she wrapped her hands around her legs. “Well I finally looked through my real dads vault“ she admitted in a very hushed and scared tone. Taking a long pause “Most of the money is gone after everyone else in the Lestrange family took their share of what was in the vault. But there is still a lot of weird items and books left”. Taking another pause as she squeezed her legs tighter. “Some of the books Are so rare it’s hard to find any references on them” you could tell in her voice there was some concern. She didn’t know if these books of obscure magic were obscure for a reason. What no one knew is that she had packed some of these books in her trunk.

Taking a moment she realised she should also mention some of the good stuff that happened to her. “Oh me Mum and the whole family went to a few Quidditch matches all over England during summer” Lucinda said joyfully always loving Quidditch. Which reminded her about her new broom which she found in her dad’s vault. “By the way I almost forgot to mention I found an old broom in my fathers vault it’s a Firebolt” reaching into her coat she looked for something in particular. In the end she took out a picture of her biological parents both on it. “I’m wondering if she will ever get better” she mumbled thinking about her crazy mother. Even wondering if the new dark master would release her even knowing her mother is not alright. Snapping back to Evangelina she said in a stern voice “also I’m only telling you this since your family and I don’t want you saying stuff around school, got it”. Dropping her serious tone she added “now let’s talk about your new broom is it better or worse then mine”.

Evanglina Black"We'll bring you along next summer! Narcissa is getting better, and it'll be a lot of fun!" Eva said with a happy smile, nearly bouncing in her seat. She actually really lived the idea of spending more time with her cousin, but her excitement dwindled a bit as she talked about her parents. Eva really felt for Luncinda, she really did, because she knew how hard it is to live without parents. She hardly remembered her own, and knew nothing about other than their bloodstatus. "For your sake, I hope so," Eva said quietly, the topic of Lucinda's father's vault interested her, particularly the books, but Lucinda snapping at her brought her out of her thoughts. "I don't have any friends, who would I spill to?" Eva asked, stating a very depressing fact. Her mood once again changed when Lucinda brought up the topic of their brooms. "Well, it's a Firebolt, but! It's the newest model that was released just a few weeks ago," She said with a confident giggle. Inactive User 002

Lucinda had been upset that her cousin had a better and newer broom than her and was pouting a bit about. It was a few good minutes before she wiped the sour puss face off. At least her cousin couldn’t tell her secrets to anyone not having any friends which Lucinda was happy with until she realised how her cousin must feel. For the most part Lucinda was used to being alone mainly because people hated her but her cousin wasn’t used to having no friends. “Well from now on you have the honour of being my friend” she stated in a very well spoken almost snobby voice. As she finished the sentence Lucinda realised yet again she had probably come of rude and stuck up. A real curse of her upbringing with her constantly struggling to break certain habits. Trying to think of way to apologise her body went into auto pilot. Next thing she new she was sat next to her cousin giving her a very awkward hug. Snapping back she quickly stopped the hug completely bright red with embarrassment all see could mutter was “sorry”. This was literally the first time Lucinda had hugged her cousin or anyone of such low blood status. She rarely ever hugged her foster family and doesn’t remember if her real family ever hugged her.

Felix looked at his watch as he waited for Dominique for her reaction to what he just said, and his eyes widened in alarm. Was his watch right? Seriously, it was already this late? He looked at Dominique, and then to his watch, and then back to her again before lightly punching her arm. "Come on, it's time for the Prefect's meeting." He pointed out. He then grabbed her arm and then began pulling her towards the direction of the Prefect's cabin. He had a habit of doing this when he felt like he was late for someone and that he had to bring someone with him. Dominique probably got used to this kind of treatment coming from Felix - since he did usually drag people around whenever they were with him. Felissa knew this feeling quite well. She was usually on time, but her brother was a slacker who only got up when it was so close to time and then would usually panic.

However, as he was dragging her to the compartment, he began to excitedly talk. The serious mood from earlier had completely been diffused by this sudden change in demeanor from Felix. "I wonder who the Head Girl is. I hope she's nice." He said with a grin on his face. "Do you think the Head Girl came from the other prefects too? It'd be nice if she was, since I'll already know them and everything." He continued. There was just a lot of excitement ebbing out of the guy. Besides, if the Head Girl was chosen among the prefects, he would have an easier job collaborating with her in terms of taking care of the students. In this tumultuous time, they needed to be the rock everyone can look to for help... or something like that. Felix waved at Bethany as they crossed paths as they were heading to the prefect's cabin.

"Morning Bethany." He greeted with a smile before gesturing to the cabin. He continued to walk, though, since they could talk all they want once they were inside. In his rush, Felix didn't notice the badge hanging on Bethany's robes that indicated her position as Head Girl. Oh well, he'll find out sooner or later.

Bethany was walking towards the Prefects cabin when she heard a very familiar voice she turned her head to see Felix. She immediately spotted his Head Boy badge. and smiled towards the boy. "Hello, Felix, How have you been?" She said and looked at him tilting her head. She opened the door to the Prefects Cabin and walked inside. "So you made head Boy eh?" Said the redhead as she sat down in a seat. She looked around some of the fifth year prefects, and wondered if she was ever that snouty. The male from her house was speaking like he was god and the girl was sitting there as quietly as a mouse. Then there was the Slytherin Prefects, Both of them were acting like they were god's gift to humanity. She shook her head and cleared her throat, "Hey Settle Down This is a meeting not a play area. Now I think we should start by introducing ourselves. Right Felix?"

James cursed himself silently. Dante was right, he supposed. By now, he had no doubt there was not a single empty carriage in sight. And, loathe though he was to admit it, he was not on good enough terms with his fellow house mates to sit through a whole train ride with them comfortably. They just didn't appreciate his heritage like they should. Which only left sitting awkwardly with one of his older relatives and their friends (because younger would just be embarrassing) or...wait. It was perfect! A whole train ride with Dante, he would have plenty of time to scout out the enemy. So many answers could be uncovered. Was he a Death Eater enthusiast? Did he work with Morgana (James' mortal enemy, even if she didn't know it yet)? Maybe he was a vampire...he was certainly skinny enough. Or a Dementor, for who else could suck the happiness out of life like he did?

Dante began playing another tune, and James took a seat on the opposite side of the carriage to him, resting against the window. He payed little attention to the wording of the song, only enough to remind himself t show it to his sort-of-cousin Teddy at some point. He would find it a hoot.

The song finished, and the fourth year clapped politely. Before any further conversation could be made, a fiery, red headed interrupted flew into their compartment.

James bristled at the sudden intrusion. "We don't fight." He objected, his arms crossed over his chest and holding the gaze of the Gryffindor Quidditch captain unwaveringly. "Fighting is for children. We're just two grown friends having a discussion. Isn't that right, Dante?"

At Felix's sombre words, Dominique's demeaner grew solemn. "I know her." She said quietly, "Of course I do. I understand that we have to lay low but...we can't just stand by. You know," Her tone grew hushed, and she wrapped her arms around herself, "Before they left, some of my aunts and uncles were discussing starting up the Order of the Phoenix again. Do you think...I mean maybe..." She trailed off.

Felix lightened the mood with a playful punch on the arm, and she went with him willingly, all too used to the grip on her arm as they ran. They arrived, and she greeted a familiar face with a light grin. "Hello Bethany." She sung, but was rushed into the compartment and the meeting before further words could be exchanged. She took a seat next to the two fifth year Slytherin prefects - as the 6th year hadn't yet arrived - and gave them both a small smile. She didn't know them all too well, but knew that the boy, at least, was great leadership material. She sat in anticipation for introductions to begin.

Just as Dante finished his song, who else should burst in but the fiery redheaded captain of Gryffindor's Quidditch team. He expected a comment about his music, or something like that, but instead the first thing she said was in regards to him and James fighting. It was clear exactly where her priorities lay.

"Fighting is for children. We're just two grown friends having a discussion. Isn't that right, Dante?"

"Very enthusiastic discussions" Dante agreed. Of course, he would hardly call himself and James 'friends' given the latter's distinct and obvious dislike for him, but in this case, it was better to play nice for the Captain.

"... also, la Cruz? Where the hell are you keeping all that equipment? That's almost a full drum set? And an amplifier? How did you get that on the train?"

"Honestly, Captain, it'd be nice if you remembered my name... it's de la Cruz." Dante corrected her. Not that she was the first. Most people just thought his last name was Cruz. It got a bit annoying correcting everyone that messed up, but his team Captain could at least remember his name.

"As for my equipment... How else do you think I'd get it anywhere?" He asked as he stepped on one of the kick pedals, creating a deep thump sound when it hit the side of his obviously placed trunk.

No sooner did he do so then a rather pathetic sounding squawk sounded from inside his trunk. "Oops.... Sorry big guy! I forgot how that stuff echoes in there..." Dante called as he opened the trunk just a crack to speak to whatever was inside. Gwen just gave a subtle hoot as she ruffled her feathers. "Hey, I said I was sorry!" Dante remarked, having a near-staring contest with his owl over whatever it was she said.

Another pathetic squawk from inside the trunk.

"Sorry, sorry... We'll try to keep it down so you can sleep. Though I'm sure it would make things a lot easier on everyone if you'd hurry up and die already. I still don't get why you insist on taking your sweet time with it when you look so miserable." Dante shook his head, clearly not realizing exactly how that could sound to other people....

Of course, Felix should have expected that it affected the Weasley-Potter family as well. Of course they would be. If anything, Morgana would have been after them first. But Felix figured that they should continue this conversation in much more private places - and when they had more time on their hands. Though hearing that they were thinking of forming the Order of the Phoenix again gave him some hope. It would mean that the people who defeated Lord Voldy back when they were teens would try to stand up to Morgana. But something told him that they would need help. However, he decided to still keep being chipper... for the sake of others and himself. How would they react if their Head Boy was all grim and worried right?

"Been doing fine Bethany. You?" He questioned. There was no way he was just going to tell everyone that his father went into hiding and his mother hasn't been back to their house for two months now. Felissa might have told, if she was with Cael, but other than that - he wasn't sure if anyone else should know. Not yet at least. "Huh? Oh, yeah, I did." He said, rubbing the back of his head bashfully. He forgot that he was actually wearing it already.

Felix entered and then saw his fellow prefects there. He waved at them with a small grin on his face. His partner prefect from before gave him a thumbs up. Some of the new prefects looked rather snotty - he was sure that they would be able to whip them up to shape and make sure they wouldn't abuse the power given to them. He then looked at Bethany, wondering why she said 'introduce themselves', but then it dawned upon him.

She was the Head Girl? He finally noticed the badge on her robe and then shook his head. "I can't believe I didn't notice." He then chuckled. It also looked like she was going to be the serious one, and he was going to be the guy to let go quite easily. That was good! That meant they would be balanced, at the very least. He then cleared his throat and watched his sister enter. He nodded to her and then continued. "So yeah, I'm your new Head Boy. Name's Felix Boyle - for those of you who didn't know. I'm not too strict, as long as you don't overstep your boundaries or abuse your power, then you're good." He said with a shrug and then looked over to Bethany to hear what she would say.

Felissa looked at her watch and then was surprised at how time so quickly passed by as she waited for her friend to talk. She stood up and then dusted herself off. "Apologies, Caelum, but it would seem that I need to go. I will be back soon." She reassured him. With that, she swiftly exited the compartment that they were sitting in. She heard music coming from one of the compartments and saw the Gryffindor Quidditch Captain stomp towards that area. Probably one of those Quidditch players playing the music. Felissa did express interest in wanting to speak with the person playing, since he was quite good at it. Maybe she could learn something from the person.

She then turned and headed over to the Prefect's cabin. Felissa saw her brother, Dominique and Bethany enter so she quickened her pace. She opened the door silently and then saw that most of the prefects were there already. She made eye contact with Felix and they nodded at each other - with her silently telling him that Caelum knows. Quite the 'ability' most would think - how the twins manage to silently communicate so much information with just one look. It was really a must to learn when the two of you were keeping secrets from others. She took her seat next to her partner prefect.

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while. They were never too close, but they were friends. Honestly, working with each other for years would do that. After that, Felix began to speak so the both of them stopped talking and then began to listen. It would seem that Bethany was the Head Girl - since they were the only ones who were standing at the very front.

... I feel like he's corrected me on that before...
Joey narrowed her eyes at Dante as he corrected her on her use of his last name, and she looked at him with her narrowed eyes, then shook her head, her fiery red hair swaying around her face as she sighed, before looking down at James and tutting at him with her tongue.

"'Discussion' my arse, James Potter." She said, roughly tousling the kid's hair with her fingers playfully, before leaning her elbow on the wall and looking at Dante, her head resting against her fist, "Either way, I'm just telling you both that I expect the best possible behavior, not just from you, but from my entire team this year. Again, I don't have time to deal with it." She looked away briefly, her eyes clouding over with some sort of withheld emotion, "... not if all my fears are true..." she whispered, barely audible to anyone.

She then looked down at James's face, and met it with a playfully mischievous glare, "Keep scowling at me, Potter, and your face'll stick like that."
She then turned to raise an eyebrow at Dante as he kicked his trunk, only for a rather pathetic sounding squawk to emanate from it. Then Dante began to talk to it and Joey just kind of glance sideways at James with a mildly confused expression, before her eyes slid back to Dante.

"....Dante, should I be concerned that one of my Chasers is talking to his trunk?"

Bethany could feel a giggle come before she shook her head. He hadn't noticed that she was Head Girl. She turned her attention back to the Prefects in front of her, "I'm Bethany Harrison , I'm the Head Girl, you all should know that Prefects in my opinion should be held to higher standards. Rule Breaking is Unacceptable. Now, I know that sounds like I'm going to be very hard on you, but I'm not. The Minor Rule breaking can be overlooked as long as it doesn't happen again. Anyone else want to introduce themselves? " Her hand moved to her hair to play with it.

Titus sat quietly by himself in a cabin full of other kids who were just sitting there in a compartment full of some other kids who were just sitting and reading, he supposed that they hadn't done what they needed to over the summer. He pretended to read as to not look the odd man out, he hated drawing attention to himself, but he had finished his work a long time ago and was just looking out of the window. This was the 5th year he saw the English countryside fade into the Scotland's. As he sat there he felt nervous, even more than his first year, because in many ways this was worse than his first year, academics and duty he had known for most of his life, but people were hard for him even in the muggle world let alone in the wizarding world where he felt like an alien coming to view everyone else. Even though everyone had either been warm to him or neutral he still felt nervous, like the mouse to the Aesop's lion. He moved awkwardly for a bit moving his thumbs across the page as if the letters were raised and he were feeling some sort of texture, but they were smooth. How much more of this could he take? being in the room the silence, which had normally comforted him began to weigh on him like a heavy weight, it was unbearable. He couldn't tell if minutes or hours had passed since he first sat down there it was so suffocating to all his internal senses. He wanted to get out, he needed to get out, he had to get out, he began to sort of internally panic for a second before putting down his book.

On the exterior he looked as cool and calm as could be but internally it was more tumultuous than the fiery pit of the inferno. He got up, causing those in the compartment to finally break concentration with their books and to stare at him. All he could do was look at them back, give a smile, albeit an awkward and half-hearted one, and walk out of the door. When the glass door shut behind him he gave a sigh of great relief, it was like fresh air, he had just passed through the barrier into his new life, one where he would not be complacent with being alone, one where he would be something more than just a drone.He looked down the side of the train that formed the hall, he didn't know what to see, nor was he looking for something in particular, but he just choose a direction to walk for the time being, to get some air and to clear his ever twisting mind. As he walked the hall internally he was sorting through the labyrinth of emotions and questions he had about eh was going to do all of this.

Hogwarts is my home. Harry Potter

The moment you got on the train, you were elated to get to Hogwarts and if you knew about the Dark forces you were worried about that too. As you approach Hogwrats you can see out of the window a Silhouette of Hogwarts Castle in all of it's beauty. You were almost there, finally.
The train starts to slow and you hold in an excited breath. You were here at your second home. As the train stops you hear the voices of other children mainly first years that are in awe of how big the Castle is. The butterflies fill your stomach and you can't figure out what it is that every time you see the castle you want to squeal in delight.
Stepping off the train you hear a booming voice, "Fir't years this way!" You smile remembering when you had crossed the lake with Hagrid. Maybe someone had fallen from the boats and Hagrid had to Dive in to save them. You can't wait to see what is going to happen this year

"So that's it?" Edith questioned as Hogwarts came into view. She tilted her head a bit at the sight of their temporary home. In her hands was a cup and saucer, she had claimed it from her bag along with the hot tea in the cup. The fine china clinked as she connected the cup and saucer.

Coal looked up from his book and look to the large window. Gazing out he showed no expression as to how he thought about the new place. They had spent their whole lives with their family and studied only their families magic. This was one of the last places they thought they would find themselves at. Their family had been carefully hiding their existence only to brought dead center of the wizarding world. Hogwarts was not the only magic school out there, but these schools were the foundation to the wizarding world. Before entering into that world fully, most; close to all, have attended one of these schools.

Edith and Coal were part of that small percent that failed to participate in such a life changing experience.

As the train neared the two became quiet once again. For them this was not a social event. This was mandatory for all young wizards seeing that Morgana was now in charge. Strict orders from their family was not to get involved with the school, other students and to not draw attention to themselves. So basically stay off the radar and try not to make any friends if possible. Both Edith and Coal weren't really friendly to begin with, so this shouldn't be a problem... As they thought.

Exiting off the train and onto the platform the two stuck close to one another. Both would be attending in different years due to their age, but with their schooling backgrounds, they wouldn't need to be at the school in the first place. Coal passed his owls when he was nine and Edith when she was eleven. One of the perks of being home schooled.

Coal let his eyes wander about as other students got off the train. He was quick to notice small details and big ones. For instance, everyone was dressed in their school robes. Coal and Edith had already changed so they could blend in easier, but they were not happy over the mater.

Edith looked to Coal as she watched as trunks and other items were removed from the train. The first years were called over by a half giant while other students waited for their years to be directed. "Very unorganized." She uttered to Coal. Coal slowly nodded to her words. Moving closer to where the older students gathered the two still stuck close to one another. Clearly by the looks on their faces you could tell the two were not looking to socialize with others. Resting bitch faces all around. They did not look like they wanted to be bothered.

~ Zedrick Rosier~
​

The train ride was rather long seeming too long for his tastes. But Zedrick was used to reading for lengths of time that carried a bit more then expected, sitting quietly now upon the carriage after getting up and returning his book to smaller size and back into his robes inner pocket, stepping outside the compartment and walking out of the train, down the small steps and down the way toward a carriage. Meanwhile hearing a familiar call from Hagrid for the first years, Zedrick passed on through with a brief smile that faded soon to a look of familiarity then a look of whatever.

Quietly now stepping onto the carriage drawn by a famialir source, often only seen by those who know death. Decent creatures, peaceful even in his opinion. Zedrick sat down on the carriage quietly observing the sights, the scenery and feeling the cool air touch his face and chill him a bit, but not too much to draw a cold. He awaited others to see if the carriage filled and overall for the final trip to Hogwarts that was so close he could feel it. He could see it.

It was a mixed bag now days, not quite the same school he's a akin and familiar with, preferable to pre-Morgana years, but still it was Hogwarts and a sight better then what he'd understand as being seen as his home. Better then constant surrounding presence of his Rosier family and plenty of cousins. Further to add Hogwarts was familiar and he knew how to deal with the Morgana years, he had enough experience now going into his fourth year and being a born, full-blooded Rosier.... He knew how they thought, operated and considered things.

The meeting wasn't as eventful as he expected it to be, but he made sure that everyone understood that they had to be extremely careful for now. After all, they had to be in their 'best behavior'. Though, he wasn't exactly planning on doing that. He'd have to wait for a while before they do anything rash. He'd rather study how Hogwarts operated now, under her reign. Felix waved goodbye to the prefects as they exited. He made eye contact with Felissa once more, and he nodded. She headed out relatively quickly.

The train ride went by all too quickly for his liking. He stepped out earlier than the others when the train stopped, as per his duty. He saw familiar faces rush past him as he helped the first years off. Hearing Hagrid's familiar voice gave him a sense of relief. At least he was still here. At least. When he made eye contact with the half-giant, he gave Hagrid a cheerful wave. He always liked him. After all, he was the gamekeeper and shared the same interests in animals as he did. Felix liked talking with him about various magical animals. He was even the one to tell him to seek out Newt Scamander, Luna Lovegood-Scamander or her husband, Rolf Scamander. who were both experts in the magizoologist field, though the former was far more experienced. Felix never did have the chance to meet those people.

After that, he headed over to the carriages. He saw Felissa but she motioned him to go on ahead, as she planned on sitting with someone else. Felix gave her a nod. While they were close, Felix was happy that his sister had some other friends. The thestrals looked healthy, so that was good. He always liked those horses. He then headed over to where Bethany was sitting. "Well, here we go." He told her with a small smile. He wondered where Cael and Dominique were going to sit at. He then leaned back before reaching out for his wand. He twisted it in his hands and then chanted, "Avis." And just like intended, yellow birds appeared and then flocked around him. It was meant as a stress reliever for him. These birds always brought him happiness. Actually, transfiguration did. "I hope everything goes well for us, Bethany." He said, unafraid to speak now. The birds flew away and disappeared soon after.

Felissa exited the compartment of the prefect's cabin after a short silent conversation with her brother. She headed back to where Cael was and listened to what he had to say. The train ride was relatively quick, for her at least. She wondered what kind of events were waiting for her at Hogwarts. She knew her brother was worried about Morgana, and was thinking of whether or not he should do something about Morgana, while she was occupying Hogwarts. She's managed to dissuade him from trying for now, since it would be too risky without knowledge of how she worked. Though, from the looks of it, someone else might mount a resistance against her. She wasn't all too sure, but she wanted to put that off for now.

She exited earlier than Cael as per prefect rules, and then guided the Ravenclaw first years, who some were scared and some were still excited, towards Hagrid. The half-giant was a kind man. He put up with Felix's incessant talking and even their visits to his hut for further questions. Felissa never held the same interest as her brother, so she couldn't relate as much, but she liked hearing about them due to her curiosity about multiple subjects - Care for Magical Creatures included despite her not taking that for her NEWTs. If Hagrid was still here, then surely, some of the other teachers were here as well. Some part of her was hoping that Professor McGonagall was still there, though some part of her was thinking that she was probably... not there anymore if Morgana held the school on the palm of her hands.

Once she was done with her duty as a prefect, she headed over to the carriages. She patted one of the thestrals on the head, and the winged horse whinnied. She then saw Zedrick sitting at one of the carriages. Felissa caught the eye of her brother and she told him to go on ahead. Maybe she could talk to the young Rosier and see how he felt about this situation. Felix was all too happy to oblige. The brown haired woman bounded to the carriage and then climbed up, sitting across from the male.

"Good day Zedrick. I hope you don't mind the company." She told him. Felissa considered him as a good friend, despite him being years younger than herself. She always lent an ear to him whenever he needed it, whether it was because of his grades or because of his family. "How was your summer? Same, I assume?"

Dante made his way off the train along with the others as they departed. The rest of the trip had been, well rather uneventful. Frankly, by now he was convinced Gryffindor's Captain was completely airheaded about anything that wasn't Quidditch, given she had thought he was talking to his trunk before. He had just shaken it off and let the train ride continue its course. Of course, by the time they'd arrived, he'd packed his stuff back into his trunk so it could be brought into the castle, tapping it on a certain spot with his wand so, if anyone else were to open it, all they'd find is his underwear.

Thus, he made his way out and onto the platform. Giving a nod to Hagrid as he passed(and noting a bit of surprise on Hagrid's face at Dante's sudden growth over the last summer), Dante made his way to the carriages. He'd been able to see Thestrals ever since he had arrived at Hogwarts. An unfortunate part of living on the streets was the unforgiving England winters. Although he'd managed to survive, other poor people on the streets were not so fortunate. Those memories, though, were far from his mind now.

As he had been in the very back of the train, all of the carriages already had people in them, making picking one for himself to ride completely impossible. With a bit of a defeated sigh, he simply climbed into the one nearest to him, which happened to be occupied by two others at the time. He didn't know either of them all that well, so he just murmured a bit of a hello and kept himself quiet. Around those he was familiar with, like members of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, he could let his hair down and be more like himself. However, these two he didn't know all that well, so he defaulted to just being a quiet observer.

Trying to play it cool, he spun his wand around his fingertips, staring out the window of the carriage impassively. It was something of a nervous habit of his, and a reason he particularly disliked quill pens. He didn't mean to intrude on anyone's conversation or anything, but really he had to get on one of the carriages and this one seemed the least full and closest to him at the time. Try as he might, he always just came off as tense around new people. Subconsciously, he supposed, he was so worried about being found out that it became hard to just relax until he got more comfortable around people.

Well... not so much interacting as sitting awkwardly and quietly with them...

~Zedrick Rosier~
​

The eve was rather quiet at first as Zedrick observed others get off the train and first years act amazed, terrified and in sheer awe over the giant of a man in Hagrid. But overall seemed to get used to him a bit least enough to board the boats. Meanwhile Zedrick sat upon the carriage, noticed this and that, watched first years and Hagrid, looked to the trees and the stars while the moonlight reflected off the calm waters.

Just then he took note of Felissa, Felissa Boyle of house Ravenclaw, a prefect matter of fact and in his consideration a good friend, a listening ear and non judgemental to his surname of Rosier. Obviously she was a few years older but it didn't feel like it mattered truth be told. As she sat down across from him and he offered a kind smile as she did while moving on toward her question and greeting. "Good eve Felissa, And no... I don't mind at all. A little company before the traditional first night back is always welcome." The brown haired male spoke up with a kept smile though a tad smaller yet still kind. When she asked over his summer a wide grin flashed on his face and seemed to perk a bit at the topic, while his eyes kinda went wide with excitement. "Actually... No! I got away this summer, I went south... well the south of France in exact. Saved enough and planned down to the last detail, finally got to see where I suspect is my home country based off origins and etcetera. Cóte de Carcasonne.... quite beautiful there and plenty of history to see and read. I loved it!" He said with a true hint of happiness in his tone. "Least had one summer away from.... well you know.... them. Now I'm refreshed and ready for the year. What about you? A good summer?" He asked honestly curious and returning the question. Felissa often lent her ear to him and helped when and where she could, even with troubles that seemed like burdens for her to take on by simply listening to him vent. It was rather nice to share a positive and truly happy experience for a change and get to hear about her summer too.

Just as he asked Zedrick noticed another arrival to the carriage as the boy boarded. A guy somewhat familiar to him.... didn't know him really, but somehow...... quidditch? Yes had to be quidditch! Gryffindor..... Zedrick couldn't remember much else from his last game against gryffindor so the boys position was drawing a blank. Though considering he took a nasty shot to the head via a bludger while pinned between rival chasers when he had the trick pay on route didn't help much. But he did remember that much about the new guy on the carriage. Not wanting to be rude to the seemingly unrelaxed fella, he gave a nod in polite greeting while not interrupting or intending to shift focus from Felissas response.

Felissa listened to Zedrick speak about his summer, a small smile on her face. She was rather glad that he was able to leave his house for a personal field trip. She had to say, his household was toxic - detrimental to his own progress as both a wizard and as a person. The Rosier family had been, just like many traditional pureblooded families, supporters of the Dark Lord and thus, possible supporters of Morgana as well. While she personally didn't know any single one of them, nor did she attend school with anyone else from the family, stories from her mother was enough to convince her how they acted. However, Zedrick was the complete opposite. He was kind and accepting, and the first Rosier to get sorted to another House instead of Slytherin. She was rather glad for that since she got to meet such a bright boy. "Cóte de Carcasonne..." She repeated, keeping it in mind. She might as well learn about the place. "I'm glad you had a very eventful summer, and I see that you enjoyed it quite a bit as well. Good for you."

As the question was bounced back to her, she had to stop and consider her options. On one hand, she did feel comfortable enough around him to tell him about what troubles the Boyle family, just like she did with Caelum. On the other hand, she wasn't exactly sure how he would react and if Felix would be alright with it. Caelum was a common friend, Zedrick was not. There was a difference. Settling for an answer after a short moment of debate raging on in her head, she began. "Quite uneventful, really. Of course, with Morgana out and about, father can't exactly stay put in one area. Mother as well." She replied in a dismissing tone. It wasn't much different from before - in the summer leading up to her sixth year. Everything began to fall down ever since Uncle Harold was taken in by one of Morgana's men to be thrown into Azkaban.

Mid-way into her reply, a white haired male climbed up onto the carriage. Ah. She remembered that face, it was quite difficult not to with his white hair and slightly pointed ears. But she observed that he grew. Not just 'grow a couple centimeters' grew, but 'this guy just turned into a giant' grew. While Felissa never really took his height, she got used to seeing this male during Quidditch matches and him walking around towards his classes. Again, very hard to miss. He seemed rather uneasy. He must have been shy. Much unlike Zedrick, she decided to take a more forward approach. "Dante de la Cruz, correct? Felix talks about you, and your skill as a Chaser." She extended her hand. "Felissa Boyle." She then looked over to Zedrick, as if telling him to do the same thing, before locking eyes once more with Dante.

They were the fastest, great for racing if you could handle it, which made them perfect for Qudditch. That's when Lucinda said that she was her friend, and despite the tone of voice she was using, Eva couldn't help but smile. "Oh really! That's amazing!" That made Her really happy, even with the awkward hug, it didn't change it. Eva returned it until Lucinda pulled away, and smiled again. "There's nothing to be sorry about, so don't worry!"
