Capítulo 8: Train to Hogwarts
Chapter 8
~September 1st 7:25am~
I've spent the last hour and half unpacking and repacking everything to make sure I have everything. *Today is the day...* jax is lying lazily on my bed above my trunk looking down at me. He speaks to my in my mind. *I think you are ready sister, or maybe you should unpack on more time before putting your fur on for the day!* I just stick my tongue at him! *It's not fur jax their called clothes. But I think you are right, I have everything.*
I get dressed into a white formal skirt and a black coat over it that cover from my shoulders to hips. With dark emerald green skirt with black leggings under it and black buckle shoes. I look myself in the mirror I brush my hair then use black lipstick onmy lips and shrink my trunk and put it into my book bag with my Spell Potions book, witch is about potions which require spells to be properly brewed, Advanced Magical Theory by Adalbert Waffling, and Guide to Advanced Occlumency by Maxwell Barnett.
After one last look at myself jax and I go downstairs for breakfast. jax shrank himself down to the size of a bit bigger than a kitten, and we found out a couple days ago he can dim his glowing blue spots so that that look like midnight blue spots and it makes him a little less noticeable…
The train leaves Platform 9¾ without fail on at 11 o'clock in the morning arriving at a tiny, dark platform called Hogsmeade Station in the early evening. So father and I arrive at the apperation point at 10:30am and the moment we land I see loads of people! Mother's and father's saying goodbye to their children. Beyond them I see a large red, 4-6-0 steam engine with the words Hogwarts Express on it. Next to us I hear a girl with blond long, curly hair hair, who looks to be my age say "Originally it was steam powered by the Muggles who built it, but the Hogwarts Express now runs exclusively on magic." she's talking to another girl who is our age. "The passenger carriages hold compartments that have expansion charms to fit more students into them, they are set off a corridor allowing each compartment to function as a self-contained stage within the larger train. Prefects of the school ride in a separate carriage near the front of the train. There are usually no adults aboard the Hogwarts express except the witch with the trolley lady and the driver." *Wow if I didn't know any better I'd think she was Hermione Granger!*
My father looks at me and says "I'll leave you hear, be good and don't cause trouble. I'll see you at Hogwarts." I nod "I'll do my best! I plan on just reading anyway. Now he nods and removes his hand from my shoulder and apprates away. Even though we did bond over the summer things between us are still a little stiff but it's comfortable enough.
I make my way onto the train and luckily find an empty compartment! After I settle in with jax cuddling up on my lap I start reading my Spell Potions book. Just when I get settled the door slammed opened and the blond from before comes in "Hi! Mind if I joined you?" I nod and go back to my book and she puts her trunk up with a struggle, but can't quite get it, so she turns to me. "Would you mind helping please?" I nod and take my wand out and wordlessly levitate it up. "WOW! That was so kool! Thank you!" she sits down smiling at me "I'm Penelope Clearwater! You can call me penny. I'm the first in my family with magic! My parents are so proud to have a witch in the family."
"Nice to meet you. I'm Selina Snape, you can call me Selly. My mother was also a muggle born, like you." and with those words she was off on a non stop chat were even if I wanted to I could not get more than two worlds in… *So much for reading*

Everyone seems too mumble what they think he might be up too and Professor Dumbledore speaks up "Severus will be here any moment he had a prior engagement to attend to and I gave him permission to be no more than 10 minutes late." just than the dour Professor walked in "Ah my boy just in time! Come have a set here." he motioned to the set to his left. Just as Snape sat down their was a gasp from down the table.
It was none other than Professor Sybill Trelawney! She spoke in gasping whispers but everyone heard her clearly, "The chosen one is not alone… Their is another… A child of power… A child with knowledge untold… No one can stop her… The side she chooses will conquer all… The chosen one is not alone… She is coming..." another gasp and choking than Sybill seems to come back to herself and spoke again "Oh terribly sorry *cough, cough* my drink must has gone down the wrong tube.*cough*"
Most at the table ignore the rabbles of the schools drunk, but two glance at each other with a knowing look for a moment be for Dumbledore breaks eye contact with Severus and begins the meeting.

~Back on the train MC POV~
After about 30 minute of none stop talking someone else walks into the compartment. It was 4 boys, the tallest boy was handsome, and had red hair, he wore it long and in a ponytail, and he had an earring with a fang dangling from it. He wore clothes that would not be out of place at a rock concert, and boots of dragon hide. He look to be 4 or 5 years older. The second tallest red heads hair was also long but only chin length, he was short and stocky, and he had muscled arms, even if he was only a year of two older than us! His face was weather beaten from playing outdoors and was so freckled that he looked tanned. He also had an earring with a fang dangling from it. The third red head who looked to be our age had the same freckles characteristic as the other redheads, he wore horn-rimmed glasses, and also tried to carry himself in a dignified manner, although he kinda came off looking pretentious and silly.
The last of the boys had short brown hair he looked to be our age and he's the one who started talking first, "Sorry to barge in lady's may we join you? My name is Oliver Wood, I'm a first year and so is Percy Weasley" Pointing to the one with glasses, "And these guys are is older brothers Bill and Charlie!" they all wave.
Penny blushes and says "Sure welcome! C-could you not find a cabin?" Charlie speaks up "Yeah but some pricks where being prejudice and with Bill being a perfect this year we left." he sits next to me and Bill next to him. Percy sits next to Penny and Oliver next to him. Percy blushes speaks up now "What's your names?"
"Oh right I'm Penelope Clearwater! You can call me penny, and this is Selina Snape, she said we can call her Selly." *Oh no, here we go.* The two older boys to my left gock at me. "As in Professor Snape?" Charlie asks. "No" is all I say and they relax a little "He's my father I'm too young to be a Professor" jax shifts on my lap. *Yeah I know a lame joke but hey whatever* Penny giggles *At least she thought it was funny* "Oh Haha!" Charlie says sarcastically. "Whos Professor Snape?" Woods asks, and I answer "He's the Potions Master."
"He's real tough but as long as you follow directions and don't goff off he's ok…" Bill said glancing at me. "Yeah and he HATEs Gryffindors, he's also the Head of Slytherin." Charlie adds. Bill changes the subject before things get out of hand, but I don't mind I know it's true. "What kind at cat is that?" he asked me. They all look at jax as if just noticing him.
"He's a Nu'wam. One of a kind, and my familiar of course his name is jax." Penny lights up, "He's cute can I pet him?" I look and jax and he looks up at me and I think too him *Don't look at me, it's up to you.* He jumps to her lap and purrs and she giggles and pets him. "Thanks for asking rather than just going for him, he's a bit jumpy and has not had a lot of good experiences with humans other than me and my father." The rest of the ride is peaceful.
