Disclaimer: I don't own Hogwarts or any of the characters. If you believe I do, then you obviously have something wrong with you. I ownly ownthe new peeps.

Ever wondered what the other students we never hear about, got up to at Hogwarts? If you have then this is the fic for you! It'll follow Mia-Rose Hawthorn, Sapphire Williams, Naomi Spinelli, Tamara Sutters and Vixen Stripes, as they go through Hogwarts (not literally!) the year before Harry etc (so they're a year behind Fred & George). Read & enjoy! :-)

Tamara (my best mate) and I were nearly the last ones on the train. It didn't help that Carrion, my owl, nearly got us thrown out of the station with all his hooting and Tammy's catNicky decided to run away about ten minutes ago. We found him eventually, hiding under this dark-haired girl's trolley. Of course it was me who had to go and look totally stupid by wriggling under this trolley whispering "Here, Nicky! Here sweetie!" The girl bent down next to me and said "do you want any help?" scratchedNicky on the head then stood up and carried on talking to the group of red-haired boys next to her.

Then it took us forever to work out how to actually get on to Platform 9¾ - it was only cos my Dad leaned on the barrier and fell through it that we got there. It finally clicked that we were going to the other end of the country when the train set off, and my Mum & Dad and brothers slowly faded into the distance.

Right now I'm sitting in a compartment with Tammy and this girl called Vixen, happily eating chocolate frogs and writing this. She just walked in and asked if there was anyone sitting with us. There were two people, one owl, two cats and a frog in here (I sneaked Joey (cat) and Ross (frog) in with me, even though the letter only said bring one pet. It's the animals' fault. They gave me puppy-dog eyes in the store.). More than enough room for about 6 more people. Turns out she's got 6 sisters and 1 brother (must be a very feminine boy, living with all them girls), 3 guinea pigs, 3 rabbits, 4 dogs 2 cats and a tarantula. Tammy is now her best friend, since finding out Vixen is also crazy about horses. Now all they talk about is tacking and trotting and aagh! Equestrian overload!

3 hours later

When we got off the train, there was this giant-like man with a huge black, bushy beard yelling for "firs' years. " We hobbled over to him, me trying to hide my cat and frog under too-big robes, whilst Nicky balanced calmly on the point of Tammy's hat.

"Right. Now no more than eight (A/N: I know it was 4 in the real HP but I'm using artistic licence) to a boat, careful now!" I looked across to where he was pointing and saw a dozen rickety wooden boats floating in the water. Gingerly, I climbed into one with Vixen and Tammy. The girl from the station soon followed us, along with her friend and three boys. One had dark wavy hair-I set my eye on him immediately. The other two- one had dark skin- he was pretty hot too- and the last boy was Dave from my old school. He smiled at us and we grinned nervously back. The two girls, who were sat in front of us, turned round as we set off. "Hiya,"said the dark-haired girl I'd seen earlier. "I'm Sapphire, and this is Naomi (she pointed to her mate), Sam (the cute guy) and finally Mickey (the other hottish guy)."

"Alright, Saph! We have got tongues you know," exclaimed Nadia.

"Yeah, whatever. So who are you guys?"

"Vixen Stripes- and I'm a pureblood witch before you get any ideas" said Vixen.

"Whoah, okay! I'm half-blood anyway, so I don't really care."

"I'm Tamara Sutters. Do you like horses?" I rolled my eyes.

"Erm, they're alright I guess."

Naomi burst out laughing at that. "Saph, you hate horses! Always have and always will!"

"What are you giving 'em anyway, Miss Williams? The Spanish Inquisition?" Mickey laughed.

Sapphire turned away from them pointedly and looked at me. "Mia-Rose. Hawthorn. And no Prickly Hawthorn or Thorny Rose jokes, I get enough of them from my brothers."

Sam turned round as well. "Tell me about it. My little brother and sister, they're always calling me Sammy or Samantha. It's well annoying."

"How old are they?" I asked, desperate to find out more about him.

"Six. They're twins. You know, I think the word 'twins' should be replaced with 'double trouble.'"

I was about to reply, when Dave said, "look up," in this awe-struck voice. Everyone glanced up, to find ourselves dwarfed by the famous Hogwarts castle. We had arrived.
