PENNY

It had arrived, the first day of school had finally come and Penny couldn't help smile and talk, talk and jump. That could be easily the best day of Penny's life, that was for sure. She was just a bit sad that her father had to work that morning so he couldn't accompany them to the train.

The station was beautiful and she couldn't help but observing all the Muggles that ran to their train. She wondered what a typical Muggles' morning could be and how their jobs were and where they lived and what were their favorite animals. She wondered if they knew about Bowtruckles and how they called them.

"Penny stay close, you wouldn't want to worry Mother" at Percy's words she pushed her trolley further and walked closer to her brothers.

"Why Mother?" She asked to Percy who was walking like the Minister was watching them.

"How should I call her?" Percy stated.

"Mom" she said with a smile looking fondly at her mother "Like always"

"Don't mind him, Pen" George said "He is not the same Percy anymore"

"He is a Prefect now" said Fred with a loud laugh and Penny looked at Percy blinking her eyes. Percy had always been the most formal among them, and he wasn't even the oldest, but maybe it hadn't been a good idea to make him Prefect; Percy needed to smile more.

"Stay together, guys" Penny heard her mother speak highly to overcome the noise made by the Muggles and the trains "It's always the same, every year, packed with Muggles, come on" they walked a bit more before their mother asked what was the platform number.

"Nine and three-quarters" Ginny said tugging at their mother's hand "Mom, can't I go.."

"You're not old enough, Ginny, now be quiet" Penny's smile faded observing her little sister expression. She was so happy to go that she hadn't thought about Ginny. Penny stopped her trolley next to her sister and she took her hand while Percy was marching towards the barrier and in a blink of an eye he had disappeared. Penny's eyes widened amazed, it was so cool.

"Fred, you are next" their mother said turning to the twins.

"I'm not Fred, I'm George" said one of the twins and Penny had to look two times to be sure who was talking "Honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother? Can't you tell I'm George?" Penny's gaze fixed on Ron who was shaking his head looking down.

"Sorry, George, dear"

"Only joking, I am Fred" Fred said before running to the barrier followed by George.

"Do you want to go first?" Ron asked looking at Penny, who couldn't understand why her brother seemed so down. Maybe he was nervous for their first day.

"No, no, you go" she said with cheerful voice.

Ron was ready to walk towards the barrier, but suddenly a boy her age took their attention. He walked closer shyly and politely, he had black messy hair and green eyes hidden behind a pair of round glasses. Penny looked around but he seemed to be alone.

"Hello dear" her mother said with a sweet smile "First time at Hogwarts? Ron and Penny are new, too" the boy turned to them with a shy smile and they returned the gesture.

"Yes" said the boy "The thing is… I… I don't know how to -"

"How to get to the platform?" her mother asked kindly and the boy nodded.

"Not to worry" she said before explain to him how he could reach the platform for the Hogwarts express. He must have been a muggleborn, that was fascinating, but she wondered why he was alone.

"Er - ok" he said unsure, but he followed the woman's instruction anyway.

"What a dear boy" her mother said and Penny found herself nodding her head in agreement.

When Penny reached the platform she stayed put for a moment looking at what was before her. She had accompany her brothers the previous years, but now it was different, because she was going to be one of the students and everything seemed different, better, brighter. She couldn't wait to jump on the Express of Hogwarts.

Suddenly someone bumped her trunk with something she had never seen; it seemed like a trunk but it was very different from hers: it was light blue with wheels on it and the girl who was pulling it was taller than her but she seemed around the same age and on her shoulders there was a big backpack hanging, in an hand she had a cage with a little owl in it and in the other she was pulling the strange trunk.

"Oh, sorry" the girl said calmly before turning to a woman who was standing next to Penny with wide eyes looking at the train.

"Mom, come on" the girl said.

"Seriously?" the woman said "Not even a 'wow' or a moment to look at it" the woman said pointing at the Express for Hogwarts.

"It's a train" the girl said scrolling her shoulders before walking towards the train.

"You'll never change" the woman said with a laugh following her daughter. That girl was surely a Muggleborn and Penny really wanted to ask her what was the name of that curious trunk.

"Ron, you've got something on your nose" she heard her mother said while rubbing Ron's nose with an handkerchief, while he tried to break free from her hold.

"Aaah, has the little Ronnie got something on his nose?" said Fred with a mocking tone, while George was helping Penny to put her trunk on the train.

"Shut up" said Ron.

"Where's Percy?" as their mother asked Percy arrived already changed in his new black robes and his silver badge with the letter P on it showed on his chest.

"Can't stay long, Mother" he said "I'm up the front, the prefects have got two compartment to themselves -"

"Oh are you a prefect, Percy?" said Fred with fake surprise making Penny start jiggle "You should have said something, we had no idea"

"Hang on, I remember him saying something about it" said George "Once -"

"Or twice -"

"A minute -"

"All summer -"

"Shut up" said Percy before kissing their mother and walk away. Then the woman turned to the twins.

"Now, you two" her mother wanted for the twins to behave, they always were up to something either at home or at school. They had received countless of owls from Hogwarts in the past few year to worn the Weasleys how their twin sons had deserved detention for something they had done.

"And look after Ron and Penny"

"Oh mom!" Fred exclaimed with cheerful voice "Guess what? Guess who we just met on the train?" Penny really wanted to know who they met "The black haired boy next to us at the station from before is Harry Potter!" Penny gasped putting her hands on her mouth while Ginny jumped up and down.

"Oh mom can I go and see him?!"

"You already did" their mother said stopping the youngest of her children "And he is not a animal in the zoo. Is he really, Fred? How do you know?" the woman asked unsure if that was another of the twins' jokes. Penny really hoped they weren't making fun of her, she really wanted to meet Harry Potter.

"I asked him" he said "And I saw his scar. Do you think he remember what You-Know-Who looks like?" Their mother suddenly become stern.

"I forbid you to ask him, Fred. Don't you dare" Penny was fearing for Fred now, their mother could be dangerous when she had that look.

"Alright, alright. Calm down" he said before a whistle sounded. Penny and her brothers hugged their mother and their little sister before getting on the train.

"Oh no, Ginny don't cry" Penny said tightening her hold on her sister's hand, when she saw Ginny crying.

"Yeah, we'll send you loads of owls" said Fred.

"We'll send you a Hogwarts toilet seat"

"George!"

"Only joking, Mom" all of them gave out a laugh and as soon as Penny left Ginny's hand the train started to move. Penny waved one last time before jumping in excitement. She was on the train, finally on her way to Hogwarts.

"I'm going to look for a sit" Ron said walking in the corridor.

"Fred, George!" they turned to see one of the twins' friends running to them. Penny knew him, his name was Lee Jordan and she liked him, because he was always happy.

"I have to show you something" he said excited before turning to Penny "Hey, little lady" Penny smiled.

"Yeah whatever you want" said Fred "But we need to search for a sit" a smirk appeared on his lips.

"I happen to know the perfect sit" said Lee Jordan, but before she could heard the end of the conversation she decided to follow Ron. Her twin brother had took a sit with Harry Potter, but they weren't talking much… they weren't talking at all, but before she could enter George stopped her.

"Hey Pen, do you want to see a tarantula?"

A huge smile appeared on the girl's face "A tarantula?"

"Yeah, Lee's got one" George said with a smile taking her hand, while Fred was saying the same thing to Ron and Harry.

"Penny's tugging along" said George over his twin shoulder.

"Right" mumbled Ron.

"I'll be right back" Penny assured.

"Yeah, I know" Ron said nodding his head.

"Harry" Fred said "We didn't introduced ourselves, I'm Fred, that's George, she is our little sister Penny" Penny waved her hand to Harry with a big smile"And this is Ron, our brother. See you later, then" Fred said closing the door and they started to walk through the corridor.

"Do you think he found the sits?" George asked still holding Penny's hand.

"Lee never failed us" Fred said with a smirk. Penny didn't understand very well what they were talking about but it wasn't unusual, they talked like that most of the time.

"Have you seen the pretty Hufflepuff?" Fred asked.

"Yeah" said George "I've seen Fay at the platform" Fay was the girl they had met that day at Diagon Alley. Penny observed her older brother and his strange face at the mention of the girl and she found herself frown a bit.

"Here we are" Fred said his smirk even wider. Her brother opened the door of a compartment where there was a pretty girl with dark hair and grey eyes focused on a notebook with a pencil in her hand, a girl dressed all in black with ivory skin who was arguing with Lee Jordan.

"This train is full of compartments, why here?" the girl dressed in black said.

"Why not?" asked Lee.

"Well, hello there" said Fred leaning his shoulder on the frame of the door, the girls looked at him "You've found real good sits, Lee" the girl with ivory skin groaned sitting back.

"Charm attack him" she said to the little dog half sleeping on the other girl's lap.

"It's a dog!" Penny said leaving George's side to run towards the little dog who moved his tail happily. She didn't know dogs were allowed at Hogwarts. The girl who the dog belonged to looked at her with a surprised smile.

"Hey girls" said George sitting next to the window "Spent a good summer?"

"Yeah, I wonder" Fred said with a mocking tone sitting next to his twin "I believe I've sent you a letter about that, Sien"

"Who's Sien?" the girl in black said with a sarcastic smile and crossed arms.

"The summer has been good" the other girl said kindly.

"Even in the hell?" said George.

The girl nodded her head "Even in the hell" then she turned to Penny "And who is she?"

Penny who has been petting the little dog till that moment looked up "Oh, sorry! I'm Penny"

"Hi" the girl said "I'm Cordelia, this is Charm and this is Sienna" Penny turned to the girl who smiled at her.

"You have beautiful hair" Penny said looking at Sienna's long, tick black hair.

"Thanks" Sienna said "I love your sweater" Penny looked her cloths.

"My mom made it" she said before George put her on his lap.

"Alright" George said "I believe Lee has something to show you" Lee gasped and took a cage with a black tarantula in it.

"Oh wow" Penny muttered looking closer to the animal in the cage.

"Oh, God" Sienna said with a disgusted expression "Is it even allowed?"

"You're being racist, Sien" Fred said with a smirk "Charm is allowed and the tarantula is not? Why? Because it could be nasty?"

"And you know everything about it, don't you, Weasley?" she bit back never stop smilingsarcastically. Penny couldn't understand if the two of them were friends or not, but Fred seemed to be having lots of fun.

"Bicker all you want" said Cordelia "But don't bring Charm in to this" the little dog waved his tail looking fondly atCordelia that was sketching something on her notebook. Penny got curious looking at Cordelia so she hopped off George's lap and looked what the girl was drawing.

"Oh wow" Penny said looking at a perfect picture of Charm, it was so beautiful, it seemed real but it was just made with pencils.

"Do you like it?" Cordelia asked sweetly making Penny nodding her head in response.

"You're very good" Penny said then she looked Cordelia with amazed eyes "Can you draw a Niffler?"

"A—Niffler?" Cordelia asked in surprise but with a smile "I've never seen a Niffler"

"Don't worry!" Penny exclaimed happily "I know how it is" Cordelia laughed elegantly and she move over to make space next to her.

"Then sit here and help me" she said, Penny giggled and set down.

"Are you sure you're related?" Sienna asked looking at Penny talking to Cordelia.

"Of course" Fred said "Don't you see who she took her beauty from?" Sienna's gaze move from Fred then to Penny and back to Fred "Not the slightest" George started to laugh loudly.

"She told you, brother" he said followed by Lee.

"She told you, too. We have the same face" Fred argued looking at his twin who kept laughing.

"Anyway" Fred ignored them "Do you know who is on the train?" the two girls frowned in confusion.

"Harry Potter" said George excitedly.

"What? Really?" Lee exclaimed while the two girls looked at each other with wide eyes.

Penny really liked Fred and George's friends, they were very nice; Cordelia was very sweet and Sienna was funny, she even find out that Sienna loved music and Cordelia had promised her that she would have taught Penny how to draw; not that Penny would ever be that good, drawing wasn't really one of her main skills.

She had spent hours with them and she really wanted to go to Ron. She waited for Cordelia to finish the drawing, that was beautiful, and then she walked out the compartment with the piece of paper in her hands, she really wanted to show it to Ron.

Penny was walking, while she saw Oliver Wood walking towards her. She couldn't help but smile even wider and blush. When he noticed her he smiled at her.

"Hi, Penny"

"Hi" she muttered waving her hand, before walking away without stop smiling.

She really hoped she would be sorted in Gryffindor and not just because all her family had been sorted there, but even because Oliver Wood was in it.

She was walking to where she had seen Ron last and she was looking to all the students in the corridor, near Ron's compartment there was a girl with brown hair and large front teeth, with a boy who seemed really sad,another boy shorter than the others and the girl with the strange trunk. Penny was almost at the door when it opened loudly and three boys ran out.

"Get out of my way" said a pale boy pushing her to the side, making Cordelia's drawing fall.

"Hey" the girl with the strange trunk said walking to the pale boy "Say sorry"

"What have you said?" he asked with an almost disgusted tone.

"You pushed her" the girl said while the other with frizzy hair was picking up Penny's drawing.

The boy looked at Penny and observing her a strange expression appeared on his face, like he was superior somehow.

"Weasley was on my way" Penny frowned, he knew who she was, so he must have been part of a wizardly family and not a very nice one.

"So you're blind as well as rude" the girl said coolly.

"Cora, leave it" the short boy said looking between the girl and the pale boy. Cora stared at the pale boy until he had left, than she let out a growl before turning to them.

"Are you ok?" asked the girl with frizzy hair.

Penny turned to her with a smile "Oh yes, no harm done. Thank you though" she said turning to the other girl, who scrolled her shoulder with a smile.

"I hate bullies" she said coolly.

"I'm Penny" she introduced herself.

"I'm Hermione Granger" the girl with frizzy hair said "This is Cora, he is Seamus and he is Neville"

"Didn't you happen to have seen a toad?" the boy asked.

"Sorry, no" answered Penny, she really hoped he would find his pet again. Then she turned to Ron's compartment, those three got out from there.

"What has been going on?" asked Hermione entering the boys' compartment as if she was a ticket inspector.

"Ronnie are you and Harry alright?" she asked entering too. Ron and Harry were there and her twin was holding Scabbers by his tail. She gasped and took it in her hands.

"Ron have you been fighting?" asked Penny checking on Scabbers that seemed just asleep.

"Scabbers has been fighting, not us" he said before turning to Hermione "Can we help you with something?"

"You better hurry up and put your robes, I've just been up to the front to ask the conductor, and he says we're nearly there" Hermione really seemed a girl that liked to have everything under her control, but she was even very polite, after all she was warning them.

"Would you mind leaving while we change?" said Ron.

"All right - I only came here because people outside are behaving very childish" she said in a sniffy voice "And you've got dirt on your nose, by the way, did you know?" Ron glared at her and she left.

Penny looked Harry who looked at her with a shy smile, she then noticed a lot of sweets on the sits "You were hungry, were you?" she said petting Scabbers, then she turned to Ron with wide eyes "Have you found Agrippa?"

Ron shook his head "No, but Harry found Dumbledore" Penny looked at Harry who nodded.

"And Ron gave me Morgana and lots of others"

"So he can start to collecting them" they really seemed to get along and Penny was really happy.

"Oh, wow. That's good" she said giving Scabbers back to Ron "I can't wait to arrive" she then looked out of the window noticing the sky getting darker and darker and Harry did the same, probably wondering what Hogwarts would be like.

"Penny we have to change" Ron said and Penny nodded her head, but didn't move.

"Penny" he said gesturing to Harry.

"Oh yes" she exclaimed, she wasn't shy about her brothers changing in front of her, but Harry wasn't her brother. So she took her robes.

"I'll go change, I'll see you in a bit" she said before exiting.

When she got back the two boys had already changed and she put her previous clothes in her bag, but suddenly her harmonica fell on the floor. She was ready to pick it up, but Harry was faster.

"You play?" he asked curiously.

"Oh yes" said Penny.

"Almost every time" Ron said nodding his head. Penny giggled.

"All my brothers say that if I don't talk, I play" Harry smiled less shyly than before.

"I would like to hear you play, sometimes" Penny giggled again.

"Oh wow, yes of course" Harry was very nice and she could see how Ron was at ease with him. She really thought that they could be the best of friends, she just hoped that the three of them would be sorted in the same House, but she really didn't want to think about that, she couldn't wait to arrive to Hogwarts.

Thanks for reading! I hope you've liked it!

Have a nice week!
