AN: I'M BACK. NO DELAY. TO THE CHAPTER.

The two boy looked up in surprise as the compartment door slammed open

"Who the hell are you?" came an icy voice.

Gaara narrowed his eyes, and Naruto shook his head. People these days. So rude.

The frosted glass slid aside fully to reveal a pale boy with a sneer seemingly permanently etched upon his face, flanked by a tall dark boy and two gorillas. Oh. Wait. No, those were humans…apparently. Gaara raised an eyebrow at their extremely rude entrance.

The boys stared at each other for a few minutes, studying their appearance. Blaise's lip curled up appreciatively at Gaara's cold green eyes and tan shirt emblazoned with a snake wrapped around an hourglass, while Malfoy pulled his lip back at Naruto in a sneer that was even more sneer-y than before.

Said blond, spiky-haired boy blinked at the fair-haired smirking one.

"Tch," The other sneered even more. Gaara was tempted to tell him that if he pulled his lip any further, he'd get wrinkles.

"This is a Slytherin compartment," continued the tall, dark one. He smirked at Naruto. "Let's get going, Gryffie."

The blond just blinked in confusion. Gryffie...Slytherin...it somehow rang a bell. He thought back to the letter in his trunk, the envelope torn and the letter wrinkled from being read so many times. Maybe not read...maybe...just crumpled...used to throw at the Uchiha...damn. He really should have read the letter.

Gaara, however, had in fact read the letter, and understood perfectly. A small frown was being to form on his otherwise expressionless face.

"What, you don't understand? Look how obvious it is, Malfoy...whisker marks...c'mon. That's extreme pride in your house full of the brawny and the stupid." The dark boy shook his head at "Malfoy", who rolled his pale eyes at Naruto's look of confusion, his eyes in a squinty position. Zabini, the tall dark one, shook his head and motioned to Gaara, smirking haughtily.

"Here, we'll find a new compartment, away from this Gryffindor filth...he obviously doesn't get it."

Naruto crossed his arms and scowled. He opened his mouth to say something, maybe to bite his foot off, but a dark look from Gaara silenced him.

It was obvious that Gaara was getting annoyed. Everyone knew that it annoyed Gaara to be annoyed.

"No," he answered, point-blank. The others raised an eyebrow.

"You're new, right? The Gryffindors are the great and mighty, stupid scum we try and get off our shoes..."

"Maybe you don't get it," Gaara looked up through his red bangs and gave hem an icy look. "I. Don't. Want. To. Come. Have a nice day."

The Slytherins stood in the doorway, friendly (as friendly as they could get) expressions degrading into glares and scowls. Malfoy planted his feet and sneered. "Make me leave."

Naruto grinned, enjoying this display of extreme stupidity put on by the silver and green clad ringleader and his monkeys.

"Okay." Gaara elongated his wand hand and gave it a simple flick. Suddenly, one of he gorilla's robe hems caught fire. He squealed loudly and jumped about, trying to stomp it out.

"Bloody hell!" yelled Malfoy, jumping out of the way. "Put it out, Crabbe!"

"I'm tryingཀ" squealed Crabbe-gorilla. Zabini shoved him out of the compartment, running out into the corridor.

Naruto got up and pointed his wand. "Aguamenti," he gasped through laughs. A wave of water fell from the sky and landed on Crabbe, drawing squeaks from nearby second-years. Naruto peered over Gaara's shoulder, laughing, as he watched Malfoy and his cronies run off with identical water stains on the seat of their trousers. His friend smirked.

"Wonderful displayཀ" came a booming voice. The two turned in surprise, coming face to face with a walking sofa. Was there something in these wizard's blood that made them look like assorted animals and inanimate objects?

The man was old and amazingly plump. His bald pate shone in the dim lighting of the train.

"You look a little old to be a student," wisely observed Naruto. Gaara elbowed him in the gut, causing him to wince.

The elderly man lay his hands on the huge bulge of his waistcoat and chuckled heartily. "Quite, right my boyཀ Now..."

He peered closely at them.

"Could you be the twon Kosuna transfers we were lucky enough to receive?"

"Yes, Professor," answered Gaara, cutting off Naruto before he had the chance to open his mouth. His companion's azure eyes widened in horror. Professor? It had barely been over an hour and he had already screwed upཀ

A deep chuckle arose from the professor once more. "Excellent, excellent. No need to look so frightened, my dear boy, I won't bite you."

"You're not gonna lecture us?" queried Naruto, surprised.

"No, no, my ladཀ Which of you cast the fire charm and which the Aguamenti?" He peered closely at them.

"...I cast the fire...Uzumaki put it out."

Naruto grinned proudly.

"Oh ho hoཀ Follow me, Professor Slughorn, then, boysཀ" He marched off, apparently having a destination. A few compartments down, the professor paused in front of a closed door from which came angry shouts and familiar squeals. Gaara and Naruto stood bacck as Professor Slughorn laughed his rumbling laugh again and tugged out a fuming red haired girl.

The roughly put-together group continued down the hallway, the professor engaging the reluctant girl into conversing and the two wizards lagging behind.

Finally, they came to a stop before compartment C. Slughorn forcibly sat them in plush chairs and bustled out. Naruto noticed that many other seats had ben lain out, indicating that there were more guests to come. Wonderful. The girl across from them continued to cast furtive looks at them before Naruto noticed and waved cheerfully. Gaara simply stared at her, holding her steady gaze until she began to get uncomfortable.

Not that it mattered to him. He just kept staring.

"Don't mind him," whispered Naruto, friendly-like, "He's always that wayཀ It's a problem from birth."

Ginny, for that was the redhead's name, blinked in surprise. To her, it was odd that this cheerful boy was so close to the creepy-eyed, Slytherin-looking one without them leaping each other and wrap their hands around the other's necks.

Slowly, the room began to fill. Naruto seemed to be the brightest presence in the room, drawing stares as he happily talked to Ginny, who found him quite likeable for someone who was close to a Slytherin. Gaara merely listened to the conversations, having lost interest in staring Ginny down. A tall, heavy-set youth was chatting with Professor Slughorn, while another anxious-looking boy squirmed in his seat.

Gaara's pale green eyes found a very familiar face, and he elbowed Naruto.

"And then me an- Oi, mate, watch itཀ I'm trying to talkཀ Just 'cause you're anti-social doesn't mean I have to be too-" Naruto stopped mid-sentence as he noticed the youth slouched in his seat. His skin was dark, and he had high cheekbones- Zabini, from the compartment. He had apparently not noticed them yet, staring uninterestedly at the wallpaper.

Next to Naruto, Ginny shot him a dirty look. Naruto nodded. "Don't like him either," he said to her, a little too loudly.

All the conversations stopped as the glass door slid open. In stepped in two dark-haired wizards. Both wore the red and gold of Gryffindor, not that it mattered to the two transfers. Gaara looked towards the doorway, and met two very green eyes.

AN2: I love cliffhangers. Seriously. I'd marry them. If I could. Just like I'd eat socializing.
