Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. It's as simple as that.

"C'mon Harry! Ron! If we don't get on now, we'll get poor seats!" Hermione shouted into the crowd in search of her two friends. At the sound of Hermione's voice, Harry and Ron fought through the crowd, and boarded the train.

The three friends were embarking on a new journey: their sixth year at Hogwarts.

They fought through the groups of students is search of an empty compartment and found that they were all occupied. When they reached the final compartment, their hearts sunk as they opened it to discover a black haired girl sitting in the compartment alone, looking out the window.

"Er - excuse me, but do you mind if we sit here? All the other compartments are full." Hermione asked sheepishly.

The girl turned to the three friends revealing her dazzling green eyes.

"Oh, no...go right ahead! I'm just in here all by myself."

The three entered the compartment and sat on the bench across from the unfamiliar girl.

"I'm Hermione, by the way. And this is Ron, and Harry."

"Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm Reagen."

"What year are you in, Reagan?" Harry asked.

"Oh, I'm a Sixth Year."

"Really? We haven't seen you around before." Ron questioned suspiciously.

"You wouldn't have. This is my first year at Hogwarts."

"That's odd. I didn't know they did that." stated Hermione.

"Well, normally they don't, but they made a special exception for me."

"Why would they do that?" questioned Ron.

"Well, my father teaches there."

"Whose your fath-"

Harry was interrupted by the sound of knocks at the door. Without waiting for a response, Draco Malfoy opened up the compartment.

"Oh, Reagen, there you are. I've been searching the entire train for you. You don't belong back here - come sit with me up front!"

"Okay, Draco. Here - help me carry my things up there, will you?"

Draco nodded and ducked as trunks, duffel bags, purses, and other forms of luggage.

Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle, carried all of her luggage to the front of the train. Reagen appeared again carrying a cage with a lovely snowy owl.

"Well, I'd better be off. See you at the feast," she said cheerily before joining Draco at the front of the train.

"I have a strange feeling she fancied me," said Ron cockily.

"Yeah," said Harry absentmindedly.

Harry didn't know why, but he wasn't attracted to her in the slightest way.
