Introduction
on the Hogwarts Express there's always that one person who isn't ready and just awfully stubborn.
"Ara Natsuki don't you think you should get dressed now. We're almost there" the Kyoto native asked, already changed into her emerald green robes with a shiny prefect badge perfectly in place.

Natsuki grunted as she sulked into her chair with an adorable pout plastered to her face while still wearing her casual clothes, staring at her set of robes in front of her, unmoving.

Shizuru let out a sigh of defeat and sat beside the azure haired girl. Natsuki didn't take notice until the brunette wrapped her arms around the emerald green eyed girl's neck and whispered into her, "You shouldn't frown, you'll get wrinkles, Nat-su-ki". A successful grin creeped onto the prefects lips as she pulled away.

"O...Oi!, where are you going?" a red-faced girl demanded as Shizuru slipped out of the compartment, with a simple smile as she winked she said "Get dressed, I'll see you at the Sorting"

Natsuki let out a groan of frustration as she eyed the offending inanimate clothing in front of her. She'd really kill for some mayo, damn that tea-sipping girl and her stupid caring nature. The frowning puppy let out a sigh and began to change, but remained frowning.

It was funny the way how much Shizuru affected the Ice Princess (or Prince to others), the way her ice barriers seem to melt as if caught in the summer sun whenever the crimson eyed girl was around, very funny indeed.

In another compartment....

"So...you're the boy who lived?" the redhead asked, not realizing his face was complimenting his hair.

"Umm, yeah I think..." the dark-haired boy blushed obviously embarrassed as he subtly shifted in his seat uncomfortably.

"You think? you mean you don't know anything at all?" a bushy haired girl stated in complete shock as she leaned back lightly.

"If I were you I'd find out about everything" the girl continues in a know-it-all snobbish sort of tone, unaware of the dangerous glare from the Weasley boy sitting right next to her.

Harry laughed nervously as he begged silently for a change of subject, when a knock with just the right amount of perfect timing was heard and the door opened. Perfect.

"Ara, why aren't you in your robes? We will be there soon." a hazelnut coloured brunette with blood red eyes stood before them.

Her voice was strangely accented, and her eyes were that of an unusual colour but yet she had contained this strange powerful but graceful aura and even though at the young age of 14 she has been considered quite attractive even though she did not possess the same blood heritage as her stepsister.

"We wouldn't want such adorable first years to be in trouble for their first day now would we?" her voice was light and feathery, almost dreamy and held a slight teasing note to it.

"I...urm...yes!" Hermione stuttered, causing the two other boys to gawk at this strange change of attitude which happened so quickly. The next think that they saw was seas of messy light brown hair vanish behind closed doors as a pair of blood red eyes held that hint of amusement in them. "Ara..."

The sound of faint sliding doors closing, and the soft turning of pages was the only thing that could be heard in the compartment at that very moment. Hue eyes seemed to scrunch together lightly as they focused on the book which lay before them.

"Fear and Trembling?" a light voice filled with mixed accents asked questioningly.

The Françoise frowned lightly as she looked up into the younger sister's darker two had a strange relationship, and it was not because of the fact they weren't related by blood, but rather something else strange and unknown to them. But this is all they knew, and didn't think of how their relationship as sisters didn't compare to other 'normal' siblings. There was no sibling rivalry, no tearing at each others hair and making up, no coming to the other for advice, no nothing. They just were. Polar opposites who kept quite close, but rarely said anything to the other. "Pass the salt" would be the longest sentence ever said between the two in public. That was if they were seen at all of course.

"Is there a problem?" she replied.

"Aren't you abit young to be reading that?" the other mocked, teased, but didn't sneer.

"Funny, coming from you" she spoke with ease and seemed unfazed by her sister's remark.

"I'm not normal" the younger smiled.

"Neither am I" the other smirked.

"That is understandable, and I'm not just talking about your heritage, but the way you declined the chance to skip a few years of school, considering your intelligence and the fact you are fourteen, why start from the very beginning?" a simple curiosity.

The blonde thought for a moment, "I don't know" she decided, carefully speaking her words. The conversation went dead after that being said. This was only a small example of what the sisters would speak about, and it was considered quite normal among them, it was how they communicated. Perfectly natural. Both knew that the arrival of the "Chosen One" was going to cause quite alot of....events. They knew this very well.

"I've seen the future" the younger chuckled, while the other just rolled her bright blue eyes and focused on the task at hand, reading, but still managed to hide a smirk underneath.
