A girl with black hair and green hair had come into the compartment in which Bubbles and Cat were sitting."Have you seen a white cat?" the girl asked. Cat replied, introduced herself and held out her hand. So did Bubbles
"I'm Bubbles" Bubbles said."Pleased to meet you!"

Anna sighed as she sat down next the window and Claire, she leaned her forehead against the cold glass, her hair concealing her face, she closed her eyes then opened them again, tears clinging to her dark lashes.
Man i havn't felt this bad in months Anna thought furiously to herself
Pull it together Anna come on she quickly wipe her eyes and then suddenly stood up, she walked over the the door then turned to her 3 best friends.
"You coming?" she asked harshly to them, all 3 nodded and stood up and followed her out of the compartment.
Anna then turned and started to walk, Peter came up next to her
"Anne you ok?" he asked, she looked at him, then behind her to Ami and Claire, and carried walking.
When thye stopped they found themselves at the furthest end of the train, the bit where nobody liked to go, Anna opened one of the older comparments and went in, the others following and closing the door behind them.
"So?" Ami asked watching her friend carefully
"Yeh come on Anne, give us the latest on what's hapening, are we winning?" Calire asked egeraly, Anna shot a dirty look at them
"Well lets say if i fail and dear old Draco succeeds well i'm dead as a door step" Was Anna's reply

"Oh, hi," said Cindy when Bubbles introduced herself to her. "I'm Cindy."

"What house are you in? I'm in Hufflepuff. My family was so dissapointed, they thought I would land in Gryffindor or even Ravenclaw. Not Slytherin though. Never Slytherin. My parents never went over to the dark side. It gives me shivers to think that some of the Slytherins might grow up to be as bad as You Know Who." Bubbles shuddered.

Cat clicked her tounge, and grinned "Maybe because you never do anything by youreself?" she mused smiling.

Bubbles scowled. She was sure her whole face must have stretched during all the scowling she had been doing. "Look, make fun of me if you want. I don't really mind. But you will be the one laughing if sosmething were to happen at Hogwarts." There was a pause. Bubbles had a habbit of saying everything that was on her mind. last year for instance Draco Malfoy had done his hair differently for a day. She told him it looked ghastly. Bubbles ended up walking around with extra large ears for the rest of the day.

Cindy opened her mouth to reply to Bubbles, but was cut off by her playful bickering with the other girl. After they had stopped, Cindy was silent for a second before saying, "I'm in Gryffindor..."

"Like me then." Cat grinned and held out her hand "Cat Turner. What year are you in? I'm in year 6. Dont mind Bubbles, she is quite batty..." she didnt gush out her word, but spoke them in a calm way, her eyes flitting around the compartment.

Bubbles sunk back in her seat. She had had enough if Cat ordering her about. Bubbles remembered when they had very first met. It was on their first schoolday in potions. Bubbles had accidently put the wrong ingredient in her cauldren. It had exploded and gone everywhere including Cats hair. She was mad, but when she saw the state of Bubbles hair she fell about laughing. They had been friends since then."Anybody know when we are arriving?" she asked curiously.

"Half an hour." Cat smiled and brushed her hair out of her eyes "I'm going to get changed soon."

Anna looked at her watch, half an hour till they reached the castle.
"I'm going to go change into my robes" she said walking out of the compartment before any of her friends could question her.

------

Izzy looked down at her watch
"Well we had better get changed" she said happily, she stood up her sister next to her, the boys looked at them
"A little privacy please" Stacy said o them laughing, Izzy grinned and pulled out her wand and waved it making a screen fly across the boys faces and concealing the girls from their view

Bubbles squeled. "Half an hour? I'm going to get changed." a few minuits later she came into the compartment fully dressed in her Hogwarts robes and her hair tied back neatly with a yellow ribbon to match Hufflepuff.

Cindy shook Cat's hand, smiling and saying, "Fifth."

When they mentioned that they had to change, she raised her eyebrows and sighed, for she had changed twenty minutes before.

She flicked her wand, and her trunk zoomed out of its compartment and opend. Quickly she took her robes and dissapered. Soon Cat returned grinning broadly looking perfect in her robes. Her hair was falling loosly around her shoulders
"Then youre a year older than me? I'm 15 you see.."

((bubbles blue is for Ravenclaw not Huffelpuff))

Anna walked into the compartment she had been sharing with her cousin Draco and his friends, she looked over at him and could tell the strain was getting to him too.
She bent over her trunk and opened it, pulling out her robes, she then went out to get changed.

When she came back she was in her Slytherin robes, her long blonde hair tied up loosly with just 2 bits of hair falling down her face, she dumped her clothes in her trunk and slammed the lid shut, ignoring everyone around her.

----------

Izzy and Stacy pulled the curtain that was sheilding them from the prying eyes of their mischevious boyfriends.
"Ready" Izzy asked, she was dressed neatly in her Gryffindor robes, her blue eyes shining, and her dark hair falling elegantly down her back.
"Well it's not like you gave us a chance" george replied as he did his cloak up
"Yeh i mean we are just boys" Fred said trying to do somthing with his hair.
Izzy and Stacy rolled their eyes
"What are we going to do with you guys" Stacy asked sighing
