Andrew scratched his head. "Wait, what books? What were they called? And how do you know what Muggles do?" He absently fed his frog a fly, and ate Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean. He instantly regretted it, spitting it out. "Ew, gross! Why'd I have to pick the worst one, Rotten Eggs?" He made a face, reaching for some water or liquid.

Sirius handed him a bottle and said, "Here drink this, it is pumpkin juice." Alex nodded and said, "Well one book was about Merlin and I was like, "How the heck do they know about Merlin when wizards and stuff don't exsist?" She said and then continued, "There were a few other books bu I can't remember the title. We know what Muggles do because everyday at home we would sneak out of the house and go down to a Muggle city. Our parents are proud and hate Muggles, they won't let us go near them. We find Muggles intriguing and want to learn more about them, that is why we always snuck out." She explained.

Andy raised and eyebrow at the bottle, but took it anyways, chugging it down. Wiping his mouth on his sleeve, he nodded thanks to Sirius. "Merlin? I don't know. I am probably too young to read it..." He listened to Alex's explanation, "Oh, that's too bad. Mine don't know anything about wizards... which is probably why they'll ditch me. I don't know, but I think that they won't understand me when I come back." Andrew bit at his lip, looking worried. "Ah, I will live at Hogwarts." He shrugged, holding the glass bottle of pumpkin juice.

@hedwig68 - I'm going to let someone else post for a bit.. 😋

Charlotte climbed onto the top of the roof, motioning for Grace to follow her. "It's not that hard as long as you keep your balance!" she shouted over the wind.

Grace glanced at a boy reading a book. Was he the one who yelled at Alex. She just shrugged to herself and followed Charlotte. "You are a crazy genius!" Grace shouted over the wind. "Are we the first ones to do this?" Her heart was beating rapidly as she stood up straighter.

"Thanks! I have absolutely no idea!" Charlotte ran on top of the train until she got to the front.
@graceseggs

graceseggs • 10 June 2012 at 11:29 PM

Grace looked around. 'Wow,' she thought. She had just noticed the amazing view as it rushed past. "Now what?" Grace called out. She glanced at the roof of the Hogwarts Express to see if there were any doors to get inside.

cqpkytty • 11 June 2012 at 12:01 AM

"Now we do this!" Laughing, Charlotte hooked her legs around the smokestack and hung upside down.

graceseggs • 11 June 2012 at 12:17 AM

"You know," Grace said,"there is a line between being brave and being stupid. Today, I'm going with stupid." She grinned before hanging next to Charlotte. "Hmm, how long before we get to Hogwarts?"

@cqpkytty

cqpkytty • 11 June 2012 at 10:36 AM

"I dunno. And hey, I wasn't thinking of myself being either." Charlotte turned her head to Grace. "I've heard there's a REALLY huge willow tree on campus. Wanna climb it?" She grinned.
(Whomping Willow, she doesn't actually know it's vicious yet)

Next person to post as the boy. Sorry should of mentioned that...

graceseggs • 11 June 2012 at 11:46 AM

Grace nodded and pulled herself up. "Sure, that sounds great!" she said. A memory came up in her mind. It was something about her parents telling her not to climb a certain tree. Grace dismissed it as a warning to not go into the Forbidden Forest. "I think I'm going inside," she told Charlotte. "I think we'll be reaching Hogwarts in a few minutes, and I don't want to be hurled off the train when it stops."

"Don't worry, it'll be fine. But hey, we should probably change." Charlotte got up, walked down the train, and opened the panel on the top to get into her compartment. After changing into her robes, she stood in front of the smokestack, yelling "I'm the queen of the world!" at the top of her lungs and laughing.

After getting no response from Madina (she must have been really zoned out) Clay decides to go into an empty compartment just a few feet away. He says, "Ugh, of course I try being social and it doesn't work out."

He animates his tattoo with only his mind and starts talking to the dragon, Arxaron.

cqpkytty • 11 June 2012 at 2:05 PM

@clayosaurusrex
Grace is with Charlotte, on the top of the train, not in her compartment. 😋

clayosaurusrex • 11 June 2012 at 2:13 PM

changed post, thanks for pointing out my problems lol

graceseggs • 11 June 2012 at 7:18 PM

Grace jumped in the train after Charlotte. She ran to her compartment and slipped on her robes. She ran back to the ladder and climbed on top of the train.

@cqpkytty

cqpkytty • 11 June 2012 at 8:52 PM

Charlotte grinned. "I think I can see Hogwarts from here, you should go inside if you think you're going to be thrown off when the train stops." She held on to windows on the side of the train, sticking her hands and feet inside for a better grip and grinning wildly at the students inside. "Me, I'm going to stay right here!"

The Hogwarts Express pulled to a stop. It had finally reached its destination: Hogwarts. First years were directed to a lake and onto boats in groups of four.

Charlotte climbed onto the top of the train again, and got a running start before leaping into the water next to one of the first-year boats. "Darn," she laughed as she surfaced, soaked through. "I really thought I would make it." Grinning, she asked the teacher in the boat, "Am I allowed to swim there, or do I have to take the boat?"

@graceseggs
Who are our teachers?

hedwig68 • 11 June 2012 at 11:36 PM

@kalateevolk

Sirius turned towardthe girl and said, "I am Sirius."

@skylark

Alex shook her head, "You can't stay there in the summer sadly. If you could we would do we could get away from our parents." She cocked her head and said, "Why do you think they will ditch you?"

graceseggs • 12 June 2012 at 9:33 AM

The teacher in charge of the boats glared at Charlotte. "Get in a boat," he commanded.

Grace snickered and hopped in a boat.

@cqpkytty
I'll make up random teachers as we go.

"Okay, okay," Charlotte grinned as she climbed into the boat that Grace was in. "You know," she said thoughtfully, "I really thought I would make it into a boat."

skylark • 12 June 2012 at 1:57 PM

Andy looked crestfallen at the point that you couldn't stay at Hogwarts during the summer. "Aww.." he frowns, and ate another jellybean. The flavor of strawberries exploded in his mouth and his lips puckered at the sweetness as he squeezed his eyes. "Man, those jellybeans are good!" Andrew said as he smacked his lips. He shrugged, "Well, of your kids suddenly became a wizard, something you know nothing about, I wouldn't want to have to live with that. An outcast, a werido. They're afraid that I'll destroy their reputation."

When the train lurched to a halt, he smiled to the twins and climbed off, into an empty boat.

cqpkytty • 12 June 2012 at 2:05 PM

@graceseggs

graceseggs • 12 June 2012 at 2:50 PM

Grace shook her head in mock dismay at Charlotte.

The teacher in charge of the boats ushered the rest of the students into the boats. When everyone was settled in, he called out,"Forward!" The boats magically moved across the lake to Hogwarts.

Just bringing you into awareness of the roleplay.

cqpkytty • 12 June 2012 at 3:06 PM

Charlotte asked Grace, "Do you think there's any spell to dry someone off?"
