Chapter One: Caitlin and the cat

Caitlin Mills slowly made her way towards the gleaming scarlet train, weaving through the maze of people all waiting on the platform. People of every age were busying themselves with trunks and cages, chattering to one another and embracing family and friends' goodbye. The immense amount of smoke the train was emitting was making it difficult for Caitlin to see. She kept one hand firmly on her trunk and trudged on, nearly tripping over a large cat that had wound itself around her leg. A defiant 'meow' sounded from the ground as she tried to shake it off. An elderly lady beside her muttered something like "Children these days…………….no respect…………what if that was an Animagus………………despicable" as she disappeared into the crowd. Caitlin was horrified, what if it was a real person? She hadn't even arrived for her first day at school and she had already made a terrible mistake. She frantically looked around for the cat, but it was nowhere in sight. Feeling a little unnerved, she clambered aboard the Hogwarts Express, lugging her trunk behind her.
