Kristina sat pondering how her life was about to change. She was on her way to a new school and she was getting a bit antsy. She usually hated being called Kristina so most called her Krissy or Kriss, she was a mildly pretty girl though she would never admit it she had reddish blond hair dark blue eyes that many had said were unusual. Just by looking at her no one would suspect that she had a secret that a few knew about. She was sitting in the compartment on the train trying to finish her story but could not concentrate. "I hate my life" she said all of a sudden causing the girl sitting across from her to speak "I hate your life to but what are ya going to do" the girl didn't even look up from her book. Kriss had known her almost her entire life since second grade so nothing surprised her. The girls name was Megan she had been friends with Krissy ever since they had meet one day on the playground at their school and Kriss showed her the playground. Megan was a tall girl with brownish blond hair, blue eyes that had a bit of gray in them. She was also was the only one on the train that knew of Krissy's secret and her own. Kriss went back to her notebook mumbling that she wanted to throw something. Not because she was angry or anything but because she was bored and she could get a bit mischievous when she became bored. Moments after the door to the compartment opened and standing in the entrance stood three teens. Kriss gave them the smirk she reserved for people she was thinking she was going to like. "SO do you all hate you lives also"

" Krissy not everyone can hate their lives as much as you do" Megan said over the top of her book giving Krissy the look that only Krissy understood

"What do you want"? Came a very annoying voice in Kriss's opinion.

The only guy to be chosen to go on the trip Kriss could never remember his name though she made up names for most people so she didn't care. Megan once again with out even looking up form her book asked them if they would like to sit. Because at that moment Kriss was cursing the boy she and Megan had named Michael Jackson Elvis though Megan did know his real name to be Jimmy it was funnier to call him that. As Megan spoke Krissy was finishing her curse; she had put a spell on him to make him want to comb his hair all the time.

"There that should keep him busy for a while don't cha think, Oh company hehehe SO what brings you three youngsters down to our humble abode" Kriss was just being silly she could tell that the three of them were their age. The dark haired one answered (Kriss noticed he was actually very cute she always liked black hair.) "UM well first I believe we should introduce ourselves. I am Harry Potter this Is Ron Weasly (kriss noticed he was cute to she had also always had a thing for red heads, she hated blonds she thought they didn't look right) and this is Hermoine Granger. The red head spoke next and kriss noticed his ears were turning red "My stupid brothers dropped a dungbomb in our compartment can we stay here." Kriss pondered this if they stayed she would have some one to play with, Megan was her best friend but she was reading and only throwing out a snide remark every once in a while. Sure you can stay but on one condition" Harry asked what and Kriss told them that, "I am bored out of my mind and I want to hear about England and Hogwarts and everyone's entire lives PLEAASE! Oh yea and My name is Kristina but just call me Kristy if ya don't mind this here is my partner in crime and other assorted disturbances to general peace and quiet" "Hi all and Krissy simmer or you will scare them away. Oh and how long are you going to leave him like this" Megan asked pointing to the boy sitting next to her combing his hair. "Oh a day or two until I tire of it and change the curse." The door had opened again this time bringing two new faces to the compartment. "OHHH twins COOL come in boys we can have party. " The girl Hermoine spoke next " do you three come from America or something."

" Oh no Megan they have discovered us we can't let our secret get out what shall we do with them."

"I don't know what do you think"

"Well lets ask them shall we so boys" turning to the twin red heads whom where smirking "questions comments dirty suggestions." Kriss said the last part with a grin on her face" UG Krissy you must learn to control you self." " I know Megan but look at them do they not remind you of some ones namely chick let teeth and tater tot."

"Well actually if their hair was a bit lighter yea they do look like them"

All of the new people in the compartment were now staring at Kriss and Megan almost hoping they would explain so they did.

"When we were in high school, yes we went to muggle high school and wizarding school there was a set to twins named nick and pat, we both had a crush on them. I on pat who had teeth that looked like a muggle gum called chiclets. Megan on Nick, who had a very funny way of eating tater tots, we had fallen for them the moment we saw them. So now we must know your names so we can begin on thinking of nicknames for you two incase we wish to talk about you." Well dear lady" They said in unison, We are the Weasley twins Fred and George and we have come for our little runt of a brother may we have him a moment." "Well there he is and you are welcome to him though don't hurt him he is the only one we got." All of the companions began to laugh at the line.

Every one asking Kriss and Megan questions about were they had come from they had answered each of the questions about their home town but it was when Hermoine asked Kriss about her self and her wizarding background that Kriss actually became quiet. She told Hermoine that she could not tell her much about her self because of Dumbledore had told both her and Megan not to tell of their strange relationship. But Kriss did tell them that she was part English that her distant cousin still lived in England and was a wizard. "Who maybe we have heard of him" said Ron Well you have infact he was a professor at Hogwarts but I dare say not a very good one he was always a bit of a goober" A what?

"A goober Um the American way of git"

"OH please tell us who he is"

"Maybe you can all guess just look at me and tell me what professor, You have had that I look like Don't tell them Megan."

Well the only one I can guess is Gilderoy Lockhart

"DING DING DING give the boy a prize first try"

"Are you serious you are related to Prof. Lockhart" Said Ron in an unbelieving tone.

"Sadly yes he even tried to take some of my memories but it didn't work because of my blood.

"Krissy watch what you are saying remember what Dumpledore said." Megan said looking from Kriss to the others and back again.

Kriss became silent again and didn't speak for a few minutes; everyone in the compartment just stared at her trying to figure out what horrible thing could be wrong with her that she couldn't even speak about it.

Harry sensing there was more to Kriss than a hipper American witch changed the subject from Kriss to where the Americans had come from and why they were going to hogwarts.

So Krissy tell us about your old school or schools as your case may be." Harry asked out of the blue, he could also tell that Kriss was getting a little nervous around them. But after he asked her she looked up and he saw a twinkle in her eyes that looked thankful.

Well we use to go to Muggle high school it was in the middle of two corn fields and had like 50 students in a class we got excepted to the local wizarding institute Ravenstine, They were located in the middle of a forest. We had two houses but each house had two divisions apparently they thought we would learn better if they separated the girls and the boys but they were terribly mistaken."

"Krissy are you going to tell them about Armstrong or just ratty Ravenstine"

Well I was going to tell them about Ravenstine first if you don't mind"

"NO really you must tell them about Armstrong"

"Really I am planning to"

Oh Megan we are getting glared at don't mind us this is normal, Any way what was I saying oh yes Ravenstine. Our two houses were called coyote and.... Um I believe there is someone at the door A blond vulture of a kid man is he nasty looking oh and he is flanked by two boulders with arms and legs." Not more then two seconds passed then none other then Draco and his friends came into the compartment. Kriss and Megan exchanged a very interesting glance at each other and began to laugh. Draco becoming rather annoyed with two girls laughing at him sneered and then spoke Do you have any Idea who I am?

"No not really and to tell ya the truth and frankly don't care" Kriss said between laughs

I am Draco Malfoy my father is a very powerful wizard with many connections and he could get you both kicked out of Wizarding society"

OH Megan you know what he is he's a society boy, so tell us how is society doing with you off to school prospering I believe.

HOW dare you speak to me like that...

But before Malfoy could finish his sentence he was shoved backwards by Ron and as the compartment doors closed Megan yelled YOU MY DEAR MALFOY ARE A BOIL ON THE BUTT OF SOCIETY after Megan Kriss yelled SO GOODBYE flashing him a smile and closing the compartment door. As Kriss turned around she saw five sets of eyes on her she knew what was coming she had just did it but Megan wasn't much help.

Harry was the one who got over the shock of the moment first

"Um what was that?"

What? Kriss asked trying to cover up her mistake

"You somehow knew that Draco and the goons were out there" said Ron with his surprised look still on his face.

"I can't tell you" Kriss said matter of factly that they all just let it go and just laughed at the thought of Draco being a boil on a butt. And that Kriss had called him a blond vulture.

The new friends soon found themselves rushing to put on their robes they had gotten so caught up in talking that they hadn't realized that they were that close to Hogwarts.

Kriss's robes were not the usual pure black instead they had on the colors purple, white and a bit of red the same at all of the seams.

And Megan's were not pure black either they had green and blue stitched into them with the white. Someone was going to say something when a very odd sound suddenly came from Kriss's bags. It sounded like a cat being strangled and trying to meow.
"UM that was just smidge my cat he is a bit unusual"

Unusual was not the word for it the cat was about 2 foot long gray and white it looked like a normal tabby cat except its eyes they were milky white he was blind.

Kriss began to take other things down six cages in all Kriss had the usual owl, cat, toad she also had a rat minute fox and a hawk. She then brought down the last two cages and added them to the other 6 this held another owl though the size of pig and a fat old toad Kriss handed them to Megan to look after before they got off the train.

"Um one question, Krissy why do you have all of those animals?" Asked Ron from the other side of the compartment

OH its a long story and sadly we do not have time to hear it we are at hogwarts" moments after the words left Kris's mouth the train began to slow. As they all exited the train Harry, Hermoine, and Ron all wanted to figure out what was up with the Americans. They could tell that Krissy had a secret that even Dumbledore wanted to keep a secret and Megan was trying to keep Krissy from saying or doing to much.
