A big, gleaming scarlet train engine was waiting on Platform Nine-and-Three-Quarters, white-grey smoke billowing from the smokestack, and students saying hellos to their friends and good-byes to their parents. Lullaby stood there next to Harry, holding his hand, staring at the impressive locomotive in complete awe. Harry smirked lightly when he heard Lullaby whisper 'Wow!'. A few days before, he had wondered how she got to Winterland every year, and when he asked her, she told him that they just used the Floo Network to arrive at the school about an hour before the Start-of-Term Feast, which was a lot less hassle since some people wait until the morning of the day that they were to leave for school.
"It's pretty impressive, Harry. I bet you were stunned the first time you saw it."
"Yes, I was, even more so than you are. I had just found out about Hogwarts, so everything was pretty exciting for me."
As the duo headed towards the far end of the train, they caught sight of Draco Malfoy and a few of his Slytherin friends. And when Draco noticed his school rival, and the Potty's little girlfriend, he pointed them out and the group headed straight for the two young lovers. Remus was with Sirius outside of the station (so Padfoot could go to the bathroom), so he wasn't able to see what was about to happen before his daughter left for Hogwarts.
"Well, well, we meet again, Miss Lupin. Do tell, how was the rest of your summer?"
"Exceptionally well, thank you for asking. How was yours?"
"It was terrible, no thanks to you. It could've gone better if a certain someone hadn't broken my fucking nose."
"If a certain someone hadn't fucking insulted my mother in front of me, I wouldn't've had to break his nose."
Pansy Parkinson turned her head from Harry to look at Lullaby.
"So, you're Lullaby Lupin? Ha! Sorry but you're looking at the hottest girl in school, and after what you did to Drakey, I won't even consider letting you into my clique. You'll just have to stay with the losers of Gryffindor."
Harry and Lullaby looked at Pansy with extreme dislike.
"Oh, look, Harry, Malfoy taught the little puggy-wuggy to talk in English."
"PUG?!?!"
"Yeah, you know, like the breed of dog. That is what you look like. A girl at my old school, she's eleven years old, and has a flat chest and a few zits scattered around her face, and is about six inches shorter than you, and she's way hotter than you."
Now Pansy was steaming, her face turning redder with each word that came out of Lullaby pretty little mouth, which was currently in a smug-looking smirk that was capable of rivaling Malfoy's trademark smirk. Before Harry and Draco knew it, Pansy had launched herself at Lullaby, sending them both to the floor. Harry was thankful that Lullaby was wearing a pair of black carpi's with her white camisole instead of the black mini-skirt she had originally planned on. After a few minutes into the fight, Harry and Draco noticed that there was a large crowd of students watching the fight, egging on the two fourteen-year-old girls.
Remus appeared just as Harry and Draco both jumped in to stop the fight, but to no avail, since Pansy accidentally ended up giving Draco a black eye, and Harry received the same from Lullaby. The girls just tore through anyone who got in between them. Not even Lucius shouting out for them to act their age had gotten them to stop the fight. Remus was horrified at his daughter's behaviour. When there was only twenty minutes before the train left, Padfoot barked loudly before jumping in and catching Lullaby's carpi's in his jaws, pulling her away from the furious Slytherin female.
"I'm still the hottest girl in Hogwarts. If anyone tells you different, Lupin, they're lying to make you feel welcome to OUR school."
And with that, Pansy left with the Slytherin friends, heading for the train after her mother, Priscilla, fixed her 'battle wounds' until it looked like they were never there. Remus, however, was not as loving towards his daughter as he could've been. Half yelling as his daughter, everyone within thirty feet turned to face the father-daughter fight.
"Lullaby Dream Lupin!!! What have I told you about getting into fights?!? First, it was young Draco at the World Cup, and breaking his nose on top of that, then Harry's cousin Dudley, leading to Vernon nearly murdering you, and now this! What has gotten into you to cause you to start fights?"
Crossing her arms over her chest, Lullaby glared angrily at her father. "Believe it or not, I didn't start any of the fights. Draco Malfoy called my mother a 'mudblood' only a month after her death, which is something you don't do in my presence. Dudley grabbed my ass and tried to kiss me even though he knows I'm unavailable. And as for Pansy, well that fight I can blame on Draco as well, because if he hadn't lead his friend over by me and Harry, Pansy wouldn't've suggested that she's the hottest girl at Hogwarts, and have me verbally retaliate."
Lullaby then turned on heel and stormed to the very end of the train, and was about to step onto the train when Harry pulled her back a few feet, where Remus pulled his daughter into his arms, letting her know he still loved her and that he'd miss her so much. Lullaby slowly calmed down, returned her father's hug, then bent down to give Padfoot a kiss on the head and a hug good-bye. Harry rolled his eyes as Remus pulled him in for a hug before the man had let the teens board the train, which would be leaving in just a few minutes. Both Harry and Remus had been thinking the same thing: An interesting start to a new school year at a new school for Lullaby.
