Mary was in her room in Cedric's Hollow, packing up the last few of her belongings before she left for kings cross station. She neatly placed her new spell books on top of her robes and shut her trunk.

"Ok Mom! I'm ready to go now!" she said while dragging her trunk and owl cage with her down the stairs.

"Ok! Your father and I are ready. He's in the Car." Hermione Potter said to her 11 year old daughter as she emerged from the bottom of the stairs.

"I'm so excited! My first year at Hogwarts!" Mary squealed. "I can't wait!"

As Hermione and Mary stepped out the front door and were greeted by Harry Potter.

"Hi Dad!" Mary yelled.

"Hi, sweetie, are you already for school?" Harry asked her.

"Yup I sure am! I'm so excited." Mary squealed.

"Well then, let's go!" Harry said while he was loading Mary's trunk into his car.

CC folded her robes and placed them neatly in her trunk and closed it. She put on her shoes and grabbed her leopard cub. Down stairs her mother waited.

"Hi mum!" CC cried "I'm so excited!"

"You should be!" exclaimed Ginny Longbottom "First year of hogwarts is always very exciting."

CC Longbottom smiled at her mom.

"Can we go now?" CC asked semiimpatiantly.

"Hold on" Ginny said "we have to wait for your brother"

CC sighed impatiently and turned tword the stairs and screamed,

"DEVON LONGBOTTOM GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" She was answered by silence. She charged up the stairs and opened his door.

"YOUR STILL SLEEPING!"

Eric hurriedly tossed the last few of his things into his trunk. He had woken up late and hadn't really finished packing. His mother, Lavender Weasely yelled up the stairs "Hurry up Eric! You're going to miss the Hogwarts Express if you don't hurry!"

Eric quickly tossed his school supplies from Diagon Ally into his trunk, shut his trunk, grabbed his owl and ran down the stairs to meet his mother waiting patiently at the door for him. His father, Ron Weasely was waiting out by the car, for him.

"Hey Dad!" Eric shouted to him.

"Hi Eric!" Ron shouted back. "You all ready for your first year of Hogwarts?"

"Yea, I am" Eric replied.

"Well come on then!" "We're meeting the Potters and the Longbottom's at Kings Cross Station." Ron told them.

"And we don't want to be late do we?" lavender asked them.

"Nope! That wouldn't be very good, now would it?" Eric said.

"Okay then! Every body into the car!" Ron said as he was loading Eric's trunk and owl cage into the back of the car.

After several minutes of CC pushing Devon around the house they were finally ready to go. With Ginny at their heels they met their father Nevil Longbottom at the car.

"Sorry we're so late dad." CC panted.

"I was kinda worried!" He replied

"Sorry. Devon..." CC shot an angrey look at him
"...made us late."

"Don't worry about it." Nevil said.

"Alright!" Butted in Ginny
"Everyone in the car!Come on lets go!"
They all packed up and drove twords Kings Cross station.

Mary, Jessica (marys sister), Hermione and Harry Potter all arrived at Kings Cross Station at 10:30 on September the first. They were Meeting, the Longbottoms and The Weasly's, before there children started their first year. Jessica was in her Third year and mar was starting her first. They were waiting by the big fountain in the middle of the Station entrance where they said they would meet the longbottoms and the Weaslys. Suddenly Mary Shouted, "Hey Mom, Dad! Look over there! It's CC, Devon and thier parents!" Mary said while running over to CC and giving her a big hug.

" Oh my gosh CC how are you?" " Are you excited about starting first year?"

CC and Devon faught half way there. At Jordan road they got yelled at and no one spoke the rest of the way. When they got to the station Devon ran off to look at a lizard a kid had brought and CC ran off to Mary. They embraced each other in a hug.

"Are you excited for your first year?"Mary asked

"Wat kid isnt?" CC replied. Just then a boy about their age walked by. Her jaw dropped. Mary turned to see wat CC was looking at and smiled.

"Thats James Carter. He's a first year too! Jessica told me."

CC only replied by staring. Just then the Weasly's arrived and snapped CC out of her daze but that didnt stop her from taking a peek every once in a while.
