Man, passing through the brick wall that would normally make my head hurt, was a really cool experience. My first step into becoming a real resident of the Wizarding world!
Looking around, I see the train - first. I was going to ride it. A train full of wizards; it's like a dream come true for me.
In any case, eventually I got onto the train, luggage in hand - and head to find an empty compartment. Once found I put my luggage into it's spot, and headed to the restroom to change into my robes. It felt nice being in them; Different, but relaxed.
Returning to the compartment, I looked through some of my schoolbooks. A History of Magic, for instance. It was completely fascinating. Another world was folding out in front of him and he wanted to embrace it all with gigantic arms.
After reading for a while, I sort of just sat there, bored. The anticipation of the trip to Hogwarts was threating to drive me insane if the train didn't arrive soon.
The question of which house I'd be sorted into plagued me. For it decided how people would think of I, and possibly what kind of friends I might make...
But I want to learn so badly. So badly that I felt like ripping out my wand and text book and performing a spell now. But...I doubt that'd be a good idea...so I just sat there, waiting for the train to arrive in silence. Thoughts of the school in his mind.
"Bye mom! Cya Xan, Dawn! Yes I promise to write!" Lyra said running straight for the barrier. her mother had told her to run if she felt nervous, and boy did she ever. The moment she got through the barrier she looked up. The very first thing she saw was the Hogwarts Express, all ready to depart.
Walking along and staring at the glory that would take her to a new home, she wondered what house she would be sorted into. Her family was quite diverse when it came to that aspect. A mother in Gryffindor, a father in Ravenclaw, grandfather in Slytherin...the rest she couldnt keep track of. After a good ten minutes of standing there pondering her future, she decided it was time to board the train. Climbing on and looking for a empty compartment, but having no sucess, she decided she would just sit in the next open spot, empty compartment or not.
Walking in there was only one other person there. 'Alright only one person, i can do this' "Hey, do you mind if i sit here with you?" she asked timidly.

Startled just slightly, my arms and shoulders jerked a bit as I looked up, and then sighed in relief. I hadn't exactly expected someone to join me...figured there was enough space. Shrugging, I shake my head at the person.
"No, no - That's fine. Feel free." I responded with an air of nervousness, looking toward the person. She looked like she was a newbie also, which relaxed him a little. Just a little, though. I wasn't very sure how wizards were...I mean, the few I met were nice...but I was still pretty ignorant, but I didn't wanna seem rude, ya' know?
I decided from this point on he would try not to give anyone a reason to not like me. Now that I stepped through that barrier, and onto this train, my life has changed, and I need to respect that, and the new people I will meet. 'Suppose that's another thing, eh? All the people I'll inevitably meet...Better start acting as good as I can now.
Looking up, I smile softly at the person, earnestly. If I had to say so, the smile represented the joy in coming on this train, and going where I am going, and a new beginning.
"Nice to meet you too Valako. I'm Lyra, Lyra Terra." she replied holding out her hand. Although she knew a few other witches and wizards whowould be at hogwarts, none of them really talked to her often.
'maybe this could be an accual friend' she wondered. "Are you a first year also?" she added.

Nodding enthusiastically, I smiled in a kind manner - it was good to know that she was aswell, for sure.
"I am, indeed! Aren't you excited?" I paused for a moment..."I don't really know much about the school though. Just things like, the houses, and that they teach you magic...Is there anything you can tell me?" I said, with hope that she could tell me things I did not know. He was very excited, but not sure what to expect, which through him off a bit.

"yeah I'm excited too- but still scared. I take it your muggleborn? I'm pureblood but my parents didnt want to tell me too much about the school. They wanted it to be a suprise for me...but they did tell me that there are tons of secret passageways all over the school. I think it'd be fun to find them, wouldnt it be?" she replied enthusiasticlly "Wait, I'm rambling...well, tell me more about yourself. I really dont know anyone else here yet."
Last Edit: Aug 18, 2007 11:42:29 GMT -5 by lyraterra
My eyes lit up when she spoke about the possibilities of secret passageways. "Wow, that does sound cool!" I said, replying with my own enthusiasm. "Ah, err, well...Yeah, I'm muggleborn." My cheeks decided they want to turn red a little. "Umh, however...let's see..about me? I'm not really sure what to say..." I said, shrugging, feeling a little silly... Turning red again, I half-looked out of the window, thinking of what to say... "I don't know, really...I mean, I grew up like a muggle...so, I don't really know if you'd even know what I'm talking about." I sighed a bit. "Though if I could say anything, I really disliked muggle school. Very boring. Vveeerrryy boring. This whole, Wizard thing has really made my life more exciting, and I'm sure it's just the start. Aside from that, I guess, I'm typically a shy person...but, I want to prove to myself that I can do well at Hogwarts, in all senses. Friends, lessons, ect...especially lessons. The thing that matters most to me is proving that I can do the same magic everyone else can." nodding to the girl, I stop - realizing that I'm rambling idiotically.
Waving a hand, I said "Sorry, sorry. Didn't mean to rant..." turning red again, I look out the window, hoping I didn't sound too silly.

"Noobaloobers!" Aaliyah squealed as she leaned into the compartment. Purhaps she should not be so hyper, as she was probably scaring all the new students, but she did not really care. The Mihael stepped inside, not being rude, but just inviting herself in and leaned against the side of the wall. "Hiya!" she beamed. "I'm Miss Aaliyah Rose McKenzie. Second year, Mihael. Mind if I join you guys?" The final question was probably pointless considering that she was already in the compartment. But they could ask her to leave if they wanted to...
Lyra heard a voice and looked around before she could reply to Valako. "uh no...its ok." Lyra replied, slightly suprised that anyone would want to come sit near her. "Hi I'm Lyra Terra, nice to meet you" she added on, extending her hand to help the newcomer with her luggage.

"Whoo-hoo!" Aaliyah grinned as she plopped down next to Lyra. "Excuse my hyperness. I just had a chocolate frog. You know it's really weird, those things. I still can't get over the fact that you can actually feel them hop down to your stomach, even if you bite off their head. But the cards you get with them are really cool. I was so freaked out when I was a first year here. I'm muggleborn and seeing a moving picture on a card was extremely freaky. And I was even more freaked out when the picture left and then came back. What's your name?" she asked the boy.
She knew this was probably scaring them. They would realize that Mihael was full of wackos. Well, that was at least true for the people she knew. They were all crazy but they all knew how to have fun.
