It was quarter to, they had fifteen minutes to get through the muggle train
station and onto Platform 9 ¾, before the train pulled out to go too
Hogwarts. Regan Porter walked ahead of his younger brother and sister who
were walking together. He had short brown neat hair, and dark brown eyes.
They were always together; their mother had thought that they would have
preferred to have been Siamese twins then just twins.
Lena and Marcus were laughing together about what they thought it was going to be like, finally going to Hogwarts; though they hoped that they wouldn't be put in the same house as their brother, they didn't want to end up in Slytherin.
"Right mum I'm going through, bye." Regan told his mother, as he looked back over his shoulder. They all stopped and looked up at him. "What, don't look at me like; I just want to meet up with my friends that's all. It's not a crime."
"Ok then, have a good year then dear." His mother told him smiling. "Don't worry I won't kiss you goodbye either, just encase one of your friends jump out of somewhere; we couldn't be having that."
He smiled back at her and then ran at the barer, Lena and Marcus both smiled at one another; they always loved this part. Their mother smiled at them, and they ran together and came out on the other side; the platform was full of students all different ages and parents saying goodbye to them.
Lena turned her trolley around to quickly and almost knocked a black haired lad over, she smiled shyly at him as she went bright red.
"I'm sorry, I didn't see you there." Lena told him.
"Then you should open your eyes then." The boy shot back at her.
Regan walked up behind him with his friends, a girl and another lad; he tapped him on the shoulder.
"Don't talk to her like that, or else." Regan warned politly.
The lad looked from Lena to Regan and then walked off pushing his trolley out in front of him, then Regan turned to Lena and Marcus.
"You've been here two minutes, and already I've had to come over and saved your buts." Regan told them.
"I never asked for your help, and he wasn't going to curse us or anything; he only looked like a first year like us." Lena told him.
"I don't care." Regan said, just as just knocked into the back of him.
They all looked behind him to find out who it was, there were two lads stood there; the one on the left had black untidy hair as though he had never heard of a hair brush and wore glasses, and the other had brown hair which was neatly kept. Lena thought he would have looked handsome if he wasn't glaring at them all.
"Oh its you; why don't you run along there." Bellatrix told him.
Lena and Marcus looked at the two lads, and then at one another; and then smiled at them.
"We're going, hope we don't end up in your house." Marcus told his brother. "Are you two coming, or do you want to hang around with those Slytherin's?"
"No, we're coming." The black haired boy told him, and they walked along the platform looking for a compartment for all four of them. "I'm James Potter, and this as far as I know is Sirius Black."
"Hi there." Sirius said smiling.
"Hi, I'm Lena and this is Marcus." Lena told them.
"So no last names then?" Sirius asked.
"Porter, we're twins." Marcus told them. "Though, Regan thinks that we're Siamese twins."
"Cool." James said.
They found a compartment and stored all their luggage, and then settled in for the journey and to get to know each other.
They talked all the way, finding out that they all come from Pureblood families; well they didn't called themselves purebloods of course. And that Sirius knew Bellatrix, well she was his cousin so yeah they knew each other of course.
"SO she's my cousin, how do you know them?" Sirius asked them.
"Regan's our brother." Lena told him.
"But that doesn't mean that we're like him, well he's alright I guess; you saw him today." Marcus told them.
"Well that doesn't mean much does it, him being in Slytherin and all." Sirius said.
Lena smiled at him. "Well we don't want to be in Slytherin, anymore then you do; so is that settled?"
"Settled." James agreed.
Doesn't else was said on the matter. They started to pull on their robes as they came into the station, and made their way out bumping into other student's in the corridors because they were so crowded. James and Sirius saw a boy fall over, at first they thought that he had just tipped but when he didn't get up and saw through the gaps in the crowd that he was now crawling they made their way through over to him.
"What's going on here?" Sirius asked, while James helped the lad to his feet.
"What's it to you?" The boy in front asked pointing his wand at him.
"Oh that looks dangerous." A red head said behind Lena. "They're not going to fight are they?"
Lena turned round and smiled. "No their not, well I hope not. They seem to have done something to that boy."
"Oh, what? The poor thing." She said looking over to see what was going on.
By the time they had turned back the crowd had parted and they were making their way outside, where they could hear someone shouting. "First years this way, first years!"
They made their way outside, now with two new friends; well the lad just followed them because he didn't want to be left alone.
"Hi, I'm Lena Porter, and this is my brother Marcus." Lena told her.
"I'm Lily, Lily Evans. Nice to meet you, isn't this great and all." Lily told her smiling. "I'm from what they call a muggle family, are you?"
"No, we're from a magical family; but its still great coming here of course." Lena told her.
"Are you two coming?" Marcus shouted back to them.
They both looked down the path and quickly followed the rest of the first years down to the boats on the edge of the lake.
"Only three or four to a boat, no more." Hagrid told them as he got into a boat of his own.
"Well now we can't all get in the same boat." Sirius told them as he turned round realising that there were now six of them.
"We'll get into another boat." Lena told him turning around and she bumped into a auburn haired boy, she smiled shyly at him as she grabbed hold of his hand to stop him from following. "Sorry about that, are you alright?"
The boy just nodded at her. "Don't worry she doesn't bite, well not much." Marcus told him smiling.
Nissa quickly looked away nervously, as did the lad in front of her; not wanting anyone to see.
"Why don't you get in our boat?" Lily suggested.
He nodded and they all got into their boats, once everyone was settled the boats set off across the lake on their own. Once they had crossed the lake and walked up to the castle, they were lead through the entrance hall and then finally went through to the Great Hall where the rest of the school was waiting; and where they were all sorted into their houses. They all got what they wanted; none of them was placed in Slytherin; but in Gryffindor. Where they ate until they couldn't eat anymore and really started to get to know one another.
Lena and Marcus were laughing together about what they thought it was going to be like, finally going to Hogwarts; though they hoped that they wouldn't be put in the same house as their brother, they didn't want to end up in Slytherin.
