A/N: I own Ariella Black and Kerstie Danvers, everyone and everything else belongs to the great Mrs. J.K Rowling.
"Wake up! Wake up! C'mon Sirius, we're gonna be late!" Sirius Black rolled over and looked at the clock next to him, then up at his twin sister.
"Ari, do you have any idea of what time it is?" he asked groggily. Ariella frowned down at him. "It's 5:30 in the morning!"
"Yes, contrary to popular opinion, I can tell time." his sister stated angrily. Sirius rolled his eyes at her and hid his head under a pillow. "Sirius! I'm not kidding! You still have to pack your trunk, we both have to eat, and James is going to be here in an hour." At the mention of his best friends name, Sirius sat bolt upright, sending Ariella flying. "Ow! You didn't have to be quite that enthusiastic about it." she complained as she was shoved out of the room.
Finding herself out in the hallway, Ari stuck her tongue out at her twins closed door before racing down the stairs to eat breakfast. When she was halfway through, Sirius came clattering downstairs and the doorbell rang, sending both twins racing towards it. After wrestling with each other over who would open the door, they managed to yank it open and let in James Potter, Sirius' best friend. Ariella eyed him suspiciously - last time he and Sirius had gotten together, she had ended up with green hair for a month. James waved to her before Sirius pulled him off into the kitchen, causing Ariella to mutter about the bottomless pits. The doorbell rang again, making her jump, but she pulled it open before Sirius and James had even reached the hall.
"Kerstie! Hi!" Ariella hugged her best friend before helping her tug her trunk into the house. The boys muttered hello and stalked off into the kitchen, followed by the chattering girls.
An hour later, after several false starts due to the twins forgetfulness, the gang arrived at the train station. "All right now, are you two sure you have everything?" Mrs. Black asked. The twins nodded as James and Kerstie snickered softly. "Good. Now have fun at school, and try to behave! And if you can't be good, please be careful." All four kids grinned at that - Mrs. Black had had plenty of experience with their pranks. Now they would have a whole school to terrorize! Waving goodbye, the boys went through the wall first, getting caught up in a group of muggle tourists. Ari and Kerstie were about to follow when an unfamiliar girl approached.
"Excuse me, but are you here to catch the Hogwarts express?" The two friends stared at her, and the new girl flushed. She was pretty, with red hair and bright green eyes. Ari fiddled with one of her own black locks, looking slightly jealous. "I'm sorry, I just saw your trunks and..."
Ari laughed suddenly, interrupting her. "No problem, we go to Hogwarts, too. It's just we aren't used to people coming up and asking about it...too many muggles around. I'm Ariella Black,and this is Kerstie Danvers. Just follow us!" The three girls took off for the wall at a run.
"Thanks so much! I'm Lily Evans." the new girl said once they were through. "May I sit with you? I'm afraid I don't know anyone else."
"Sure you can sit with us!" Kerstie declared. "Just watch out for the boys - that's James Potter, and that's Sirius Black. He's Ari's twin brother." The boys, seeing a pretty face, had come over to investigate. They both turned bright red as Lily smiled at them, and Kerstie and Ari looked on in disbelief.
"Blackmail!" Kerstie whispered to Ari, and they both burst into giggles, eliciting glares from the boys.
"C'mon, we've saved seats by some of the other boys." Sirius said gruffly. Kerstie and Ari groaned, while Lily looked apprehensive. "Oh, they're not that bad! It's just Remus and Peter." James snorted.
"Well, Remus may be ok, but I'd consider Peter well worth groaning about." He turned to Lily to explain. "Peter's parents are friends with mine, and he's been stalking me since we were both still crawling!" The group burst out laughing.
"Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration," gasped Ari, "But he's pretty bad. Now shush, we're almost within their range of hearing." They entered that back car of the train and sat down after a brief spate of greetings.
A/N: So, does this look like it might be any good? It's my first Harry Potter fic, so feel free to leave *constructive* criticism. Flame if you must...I will laugh at them! HaHaHa! Ok, maybe I've had a little too much sugar. Review PLEASE!!!!!!
