AU Train Ride and Sorting

Harry and Lyd had just gotten a compartment on The Hogwarts Express when a boy with ginger hair knocked on the door.

"Excuse me can I sit here everywhere else is full"?

"Sure" Lyd said with a smile and the boy plopped down on the other side of Harry.

"I'm Ron, Ron Weasly."

"I'm Harry Potter and this is my twin sister Lyd."

"Bloody hell the Harry Potter"! Before he could ask anything another boy with platinum blonde hair came in followed by a girl with wild mousy brown hair and large front teeth.

"Hello my name is Draco" said the boy flashing a pleasant smile.

"And my name is Hermione Granger" she studied Harry closely and gasped

"Your Harry Potter aren't you" and the Draco's head jerked twards him

"Yes I'am" Harry said slightly uncomfortable with the attention.

"Ohh I'm sorry its just not everyday you meet someone who has a whole chapter of Dark Wizards of the Twentieth Century dedicated to them" she said a embarrassed "but you must be tired of that" she said and Ron snorted.

"Who reads books before school"

"I do" Hermione said "Me to" Lyd followed up.

"Ohhh nice to see I'm not alone. Hermione said grinning at Lyd.

"Same here I'm Harrys twin sister Lydia but you can call me Lyd".

"Girls" Ron said

"And you are" Hermine asked

"Ron Weasly"he said Draco looked a little uncomfortable for a moment but it was quickly gone.

"Do you know yo have dirt on your nose" she asked Ron imedietly reached his hand up to feel his nose and sure enough there was a smudge of dirt there and blushed vividly.

The rest of the train ride til noon was spent talking about houses, school and other various subjects.

After the lunch trolley had come and gone a tall girl with unruly black curls walked in followed two others one with sleek dark waves and one with straight brown hair with a pink streak in it.

"Hey baby sibs" the one with unruly curls said.

"Hey Jane" the twins choirest as she made her way to take a seat.

"These are my freinds Reggie and Audy" she said gesturing to each in turn.

"Hey" said Reggie it's nice to meet you two again" she said flashing a wicked grin.

"Again" the twins asked.

"Ohhh ya our parents were great freinds as well as Audy's".

"Really" said Lyd slightly suprised

"Ya" said Audy and Draco blinked surprised.

"Reggie can I have a minute". Draco said pulling her out of the compartment.

"What was that about" Lyd asked.

"Not sure" admitted Jane.

"But I'll ask Reggie later if she can tell she'll tell me if she can".

The Sorting

The first years were in a line in the front of the Great Hall listening to Magonagl call out names Hermione had been sorted into Gryffindor and other students were placed in other houses.

"Malfoy Draco".

Ron stiffened as Draco cast them an apologetic look and walked up to the stool.

It took about three minutes before the sorting hat called.

"Gryffindor".

Jane, Celeb and their freinds started clapping and soon the entire Gryffindor table was applauding as Draco sat down beside Reggie.

"Potter Harry". Magonagl called

The Head Master leaned forward in his chair almost greedily and there was dead silence as Harry made his way to the stool.

"Difficult, difficult you have plenty of courage as is to be expected from someone with your parents and siblings but not afraid of hard work and Slytheren is definitely a option".

"Excuse me Mr. Hat I would prefer Gryffindor so I could be with my brother and sister".

"Well then my boy the choice is clear".

"Gryffindor".

"The table burst into applause and two boys who were probably Ron's brothers were chanting.

"We got Potter we got Potter".

A few minutes later Lyd was sorted into Gryffindor and finally Ron as well.

The Head Master, Dumbledore gave a speech then food appeared on the silver dishes. And Harry was thinking thus was the best time he'd had in years.
