Hi guys. Gees, 2016 is on it's way isn't it? I have been writing this story for a while. I would like to thank you guys again for the follows, favs and reviews. Thank you for sticking with me and my story

I have a question for you guys, do you think Samantha ending up with Harry is a good idea? You see, it is quite important that I sort this part of the plot out.

So in the reviews, can you please put whether you think Samantha should romantically end up with: (A) Harry, (B) Name another character in the Harry Potter universe you think she could be with (I mean a student.), or (C) A character I could completely make up for her.

Please do this, I want your opinion on this,

Thanks!

I take a deep, nervous, breath and stepped into the corridor. I was bustled around by hundreds of hyper students. I dragged my trunk behind me and slowly made my way to a door to the outside.

There is a dark village, and the summer air is surprisingly cool with night time wind. I felt a little bit lost as students raced past me towards carriages, should I follow them?

I think of my family, they would all be in bed by now, well hopefully Mum gets an early night, she needs it. See, I think to myself, You can't stop worrying about them for more than an hour. I know the voice is right, I was constantly worrying on the the train about them.

Then I hear a gruff, but friendly voice calling which interrupts my thoughts. " Firs' years, Firs' years over here!" I turned my head and saw a rather familiar man. He was very big, and he had a long shaggy black beard and hair to match. He would have been alarming, but I saw his warm beetle black eyes and heard the friendliness in his voice. I suddenly realised where I had seen him before, he had been with Harry the day I crashed into him at diagon alley!

I think Harry called him... Something that started with an H...

"Hi Hagrid!" Yelled another familiar voice. Harry was standing ahead of me in the crowd with a ginger boy. He was smiling at Hagrid. I nodded to myself, pleased that now I knew the names of three of the staff at Hogwarts.

I follow the small knot of students that is starting to break away from the other kids, and walk down a slippery, narrow path. Hagrid was checking there were no more first years and telling us to watch out step.

Everyone was silent, but I heard a sniff from somewhere out in front. It made me think of Neville, I wondered if he had found Trevor yet. Hagrid's voice boomed out again "Yeh'll get yer firs' sight o' Hogwarts in a sec, jus' round this bend here."

The first years emerged into an open space and there was a loud gasp from all of them. But I couldn't make a sound, it was so amazing. A black lake stretched out in front of us and there was a great big mountain with a gleaming castle at the top, the lights shining from inside it's turrets. "Hogwarts!" I whispered.

Hagrid was smiling at our dumb struck faces. "No more'n four to a bout!" He called pointing to a crowd of small boats lying still in the lake. There was a scramble as we all tried to get one. I fought my way to the front of the crowd, and got into a boat with three people. Two girls and a boy.

"Everyone in, right then FORWARD!" Hagrid yelled from a boat of his own. The fleet of boats surged forwards, and I watched as the black water surged beneath us and the cliff moved closer.

I looked at the passengers who were with me. The two girls were twins I noticed, they had their dark hair into identical braids.

The boy beside me had curly hair, and he was wearing gleaming school robes. He looked stunned, and yet there was a slightly pompous look about him. He turned his head and whispered through the stunned silence, "Wow, I can't believe first years get to Hogwarts this way!" The boy sounded excited not at all snobby.

"Yeah it's really cool!" I agreed.

He nodded, "I suppose I'd better introduce myself, in case we are in the same house, I'm Ernie Macmillan." He said in a slightly pompous voice. But I saw that this was his organised way of being friendly. I smile and think of Hermione.

I shake his hand and say "I'm Samantha Bainsbury." He nods.

Then he leans his head towards the other two girls "What are your names?"

The twins turned their heads and looked at the two of us. "I'm Parvati Patel," said the girl on the left, "and I'm Padma Patel." Said the girl next to her.

We introduced ourselves to them two. While Ernie talked with them a bit, I went silent, staring as the cliff got very close. Hagrid told us to duck our heads as the first boats reached the entry of the huge cliff, we all put our heads down and I shivered as the hanging ivy brushed my neck. Ernie and the twins were silent now.

We entered a kind of underground harbour tunnel. A few minutes later I clambered out of the boat with Ernie beside me onto the pebbly shaw. "Oy, you there, is this your toad?!" Yelled Hagrid. I swung around and saw that Hagrid, while checking the boats, had found Trevor.

Neville let out a joyful cry and raced to get his toad. Then Hagrid led them up a passage way, until they got to the door of the castle.
