on the express

[Ashley Tapping]

Ashley was very excited about getting to go to hogwarts. she drove up to the station and got out of the car and unloaded her supplies. as she walked up and down the lane she figured out that there was no platform nine and three quarters! she saw a girl about her age with the same stuff she had go up to a brick wall and run into to it and she disapperd, ashley thought that must be the way into the platform so she did the same thing and ran into the wall it was amazing there was this huge train there. she borded waved go bye to her parents and then set off. she walked up and down the aisle and finally found a compartment that was empty so she walked inside and sat down and began to read her book.

Rob had just gotten onto the train and the first compartment he looked in had a young girl in it sitting by herself and by the look of it this was her first time on the train to hogwarts so he stuck his head in the door way and then he looked at her and said"Hi my name is rob hudson, mind if I join you?"

[Ashley Tapping]

as ashley was sitting there a boy, older than her stuck his head in the compartment and asked,"Hi my name is rob hudson, mind if i join you?" ashley replied,"no i do not mind, im ashley tapping what year are you in? this is my first and i am really excited!"
(sorry short)

[robhudson]

"Thanks."Rob said as he walked in and sat down in a seat by the window. And in reply to her question he said"I'm a 5th year. Thats cool, so where are you from?"He also asked her in addition to his reply to her question. He looked out of the window and watched the buildings of london flash by as the train gained speed.

[Ashley Tapping]

Rob entered and said thanks to Ashley, he then asked her were she lived Ashley said,"Um live in Actually i used to live in the united states Oregan, but when my family got the owl from here we moved to England, where do you live?" she asked him as she looked out the window and caught glimses of the buildings and lights.
[sorry short!]

[robhudson]

"Well seeing as I have no actual home I live where ever I want to really."He said looking at her and as he said that he saw his parents house burning down with their bodies still in it and then he also saw the faces of the death eaters who had killed his parents and had set their house on fire. Rob winced as he thought of that and then he pushed it out of his mind trying not to remember that horrible experience that had occured when he was young.

[Ashley Tapping]

"Well seeing as I have no actual home I live where ever I want to really." Rob said looking at her. Ashley wondered why he didn't have a home, she asked,"Why do you not have a home what happened?" she asked with interest.

[robhudson]

Rob turned his head and looked at her as she asked what happend to his home. He had never told anyone he didn't think he had even told his girlfriend what had happend to his family. He was still looking at her and then he took a drink and then he told her what had happend."Well I've never told anyone what happend but I guess I can tell you. It was a dark night and I was really young like 6 or 7 when it happend. Our front door was blown open by three or four death eaters and they came in demanding something from my dad. He reached for his wand and when he did the death eaters saw my mom come into the room and they instantly killed her and then they said they would kill me too if my dad didn't give them what they wanted. He said no and then they shot the curse at me but it didn't hit me it hit my dad who had jumped in front of me and saved my life. The death eaters were laughing and so I ran for it and went to the hill that was by our house. When I looked back the house was on fire and they where standing there and then they set the dark mark over the house and so then I went to my uncles house which was not far away and I lived there until I was ten and then I ran away. And when I turned 11 I got my letter to come here and so I've lived where ever I've wanted to since then. What about you what happend?"

[Ashley Tapping]

Ashley sat there listening to the horrible thing that had happened to his family, it was an awful thought for Ashley to think if that happened to her own family, when he was done Rob asked what happened to her family she replied,"Well my dad left my mom when i was around two years old and when my sister Emily was ten, my parents were both pureblood and my dad just decided to leave. My mom never talks about, i sometimes though here her on the phone with my grandmaother talking about it, but so i live with my mom and sometimes with my dad, after my dad left eight years later my mom had two twin brothers so thats the history of my family, i haven't seen or heard from my dad in like two years, and i do not know why not, but so yeah thats what happened to me.... I'm really sorry to hear what you told me, it was none of my bisness i shouldn't have asked you so i apoligize." It had been a long time and Ashley had never told anyone but her really close friends back at home.

[robhudson]

Rob looked out the window and then when ashley said that she shouldn't have asked because it was none of her business he looked at her and said"Don't worry about it, it feels good to talk about it even though your the first person that I've talked to about it."He didn't know why he had told her but it was probably because he felt that he could trust her and he knew that she would never tell anyone about his past.

[Ashley Tapping]

"Don't worry about it, it feels good to talk about it even though your the first person that I've talked to about it." Ashley replied,"ok and don't worry i will not tell anybody." Ashley could tell that he was a little worried that she would tell someone so that is why she told him that."So do you have any pets? Here or at home?"

[robhudson]

Rob looked at Ashely as she asked him if he had any pets and he had to think for a minute before he replied to her question and then he said"Umm... I have an eagle owl and thats about it, what about you what kind of pets do you have here or at home?"He asked her the same question that she had just asked him.

[Ashley Tapping]

Rob had told Ashley that the had an eagle owl at home, and then he had sked her what kind of animals she had, Ashley replied,"I have a kitten here his name is Remy, and i have a golden retrever back at home. O yeah i also have an owl her name is Myya." Ashley took a breth after listin all of her animals.
[sorry short!]

[robhudson]

Rob was suprised that Ashely had alot of animals and sa she told him that she had a kitten, an owl. and a golden retrever at home he wondered what the dog's name was so he asked"Cool so whats the dog's name."He had a dog once but his uncle had killed it just because it had accidently tripped him. Rob was hoping he could find another dog that would be just like his old one or better.
(mines not much better)

[Ashley Tapping]

Rob had asked what her dogs name was, Ashley said,"O i forgot to say it didn't i, well its sammy, He is a puppy still, well at least he was last time i saw him." Ashley had thought how much bigger he probably had gotton,"SO anyways do you have any sibling here at hogwarts?" she asked him.
[man mine are always short!]

[robhudson]

Rob thought for a few minutes before saying anything to Ashely and then looking at her he said"Nope, or at least no that I know of. What about you do you have any siblings here at hogwarts?"He felt he better ask since he couldn't think of any thing else to say at the moment. Rob was still looking at Ashely waiting for her reply and, then he looked out the window and realized that the ride to hogwarts was already half way over.

[Ashley Tapping]

"Nope, or at least no that I know of. What about you do you have any siblings here at hogwarts?" was Robs answer, Aslhey replied to his question, No i do not have any here, my sister jessica used to come her though, shes trying to get a job at the minestry right now." Ashley missed Jessica alot. Ashley then asked Rob, "Hey do you have a watch i do not have one right now." Asley looked out the window at the beautiful lanscape.

[robhudson]

Rob listened to Ashely and then when she asked him if he had a watch he said"Nope not on me but we're about half way there, why?"He also asked her as he told her that he didn't have a watch with him at the moment because his watch was still at hogwarts where he had left it on his bed the past year."So what kind of music do you like to listen to?"He asked looking at her.

[Ashley Tapping]

"O i was just wondering how much longer. I'm so excited!" Ashley replied with a smile. Ashley answered. "I like to listen to alot of different kind of music. I lock rock, Jazz,and pop. those are just a few. What about you?" Ashley then asked him as she looked out of the window aat a huge landscape. It was beautiful.

[robhudson]

Rob could tell that she was excited seeing as this was going to be her first year at hogwarts. After Ashley had told him what kind of music she liked she asked him the same question that he had asked her and in reply to the question he said"I like rock and thats about it. Oh and i also play the guitar, what about you do you play any instruments?"He asked looking at her.
