Harry had snuck onto the train very quickly after a quick meeting with the goblins there. Also throwing some ideas about what to do while he is at school. He was still trying to find somewhere he will be left alone since he did not want to deal with a certain witch or wizards. He had found a carriage near the front of the train and was glad it was empty and used his wand to cast a very simple spell, which was taught to most people but the time they started school. As a way to keep privacy. It was a wizard's Notice-Me Not Charm'. It should prevent people from seeing him and Hedwig, or anyone he allowed into the compartment. She knew that's she had to keep quiet and would be released when they got to the castle or maybe even on the way.
He was enjoying the quiet of the carriage and watching as students of all ages boarded the train. All the while saying goodbye to their parents and siblings or from what he could from one boy who had a very weird older lady hovering and what seemed to be going through a checklist. Harry had a very slight twitch to his heart for a second but knew his mom was watching over him. He smiled before looking up and mouthing to something hidden above him, all the while knowing who was watching him. 'I Love you mum', before going back watching the students come aboard the express. He notices Hermione was looking up and down the platform and the train itself for him.
Even if it was against the rules of the Ministry since it was an invasion of privacy. Harry sent pictures of where he was sitting and the invitation to join him in the compartment and where to find him. He also sent her a picture of what he could see and his vision of the platform. He noticed she straightened up and looked right at him or the window where he was. He smiled as she grew a smile as well since she found her first friend pretty much ever. Before hugging her parents and heading on the train, with as much haste as she could.
Sure enough, she headed to his carriage and soon opened the door where he was waiting for her. She didn't notice him so she sat almost right on top of him if he didn't move to the left to right against the window. So he squished over before smirking to himself. He touched her hand ever so lightly with a feather touch. Then he moved onto other areas all, of course, none of which were inappropriate or anything but just to make her squeamish and start giggling. He started to tickle her finally since he noticed she protected some areas better than others, which gave him clues of where to strike. Soon she was laughing and Harry let the charm drop so she could see him finally.
She gasped before slapping his arm and half scolding him."You prat why would you tickle me like that, that was totally uncalled for. That's the first thing you do, after a month of not seeing each other, what is that about." Hermione then noticed Hedwig and gasped at such a beautiful and big owl. Since she never had seen such an owl."OH my, Harry! She is so beautiful. What's her name? Where did you get her from? I never saw her in Diagon Alley, when I and my family went in to look at animals, She is also really big for her breed is she a mix maybe. Also, why did you not owl or phone me at all during the break, where did you disappear to."
Harry chuckled before answering her quick-fired questions. Her name is Hedwig I think she is a Snowy owl that was born on a Fey-line so it explains her size or well it's what I think. The goblins had gotten her for me after seeing there were no owls in my family currently. She is also one of my familiars besides Dredd, It seemed she formed a familiar bond with me the second she saw me. I guess the goblins got her from the owl Emporium that was there, she was waiting for the right one to be her partner is all. She was considered a mean owl since she always bit anyone that came near her. Yes, I know she is a very beautiful owl. Though her beauty is different than yours I will say that. I doubt there will be a more beautiful owl than her. I am sorry I didn't write or call you during the month. I was just visiting an ancestry home and there are no ways of communication there. and certain wards prevented any communication."
Hermione smiled and blushed a bit at the comment about her beauty since no one but her parents called her that. Soon the two were chatting away the world, not caring about the platform for the most part. Harry though was keeping an eye around the outside of the train. Especially since he and Hermione were there fairly early by his count. So again watching the future classmates and their parents showed lots to show. He looked around the area of the platform and was looking for the ginger family he has been warned about a few times now. First by the Goblins and then Morgana, which shows he will have to keep an eye on them.
They were on thin ice since their mother Molly tried to form a contract. He soon saw the hair and size of the mentioned family he was looking for. For the most part, the kids looked excited to be there. Only two of them were puzzled it seemed were the two youngest. The girl had in her hand one of the fantasy Harry Potter books in her hand and seemed to want to read it already more than she already did, Harry was able to make out the fact there was a bunch of dog ears on the book and the spine looked well used. He saw that two boys were getting lectured by their mother. They looked to be twins and remember the goblins off mention of them as pranksters and ones who are decent but can go too far in their pranks. He figured they would be okay till they messed with his friends that is. The boy around his age seemed to be smug and yet scared of what is to come and was arguing a bit with his mother. It seems he wasn't happy the contract was destroyed or something else happened to make him sour.
He saw that only one other of the boys were coming on beside the three he noticed first. The other one seemed to be a bit different he seemed upset about something, either his family's behavior or how others were acting to the family. He noticed a man who seemed to be the dad of the family was there and actually was holding a rubber duck in his hand like he was trying to figure the purpose out, It almost made Harry laugh at the sight of him studying the duck.
There was one more young redhead was there he was slim build body. He was maybe only maybe 10 years older than the youngest boy. He had wild hair that went past his shoulder, Harry noticed a fang on a chain hanging from his ear. Harry then noticed he was kept well like a runner. He was wearing a very well-kept suit it seemed and Harry was shocked by the badge on his chest. He was a curse breaker for Gringotts which alone is impressive, which means he can break near any curse and ward if need be. Which in the wizarding world was highly sought after and would be paid handsomely for curse breaker services.
Harry moved away from the family once he notices that all but the youngest boy slipped on board he seemed to be arguing again with his mother. He notices the mother motioned to the forehead so he to identify Harry it seemed since it was once there. Harry lost interest and soon began a good discussion with Hermione. He did notice some families out of the corner of his eye. But focused on the kids since they were the ones he would be dealing with.
"With him killing Grindelwald during world war two. . . Harry are you even listening to me.?"Harry turned back to her smiled at her with a crooked smile and responded."Using the Advance shield known as Protego Duo. He rebounded the extremely strong 'Reducto' curse back at Grindelwald. Which killed Grindelwald during world war two. Though he only did so is because when Grindelwald did so before in the last battle the two had he had killed his betrothed on purpose. Who was that it was Albus Dumbledore's own sister Ariana Kendra Dumbledore. Which even though betrothed to her he was actually Albus's lover and partner. Though history seems to have forgotten that or Albus had it removed. Then again they never found his body after the battle."
Hermione was surprised and asked him what Harry expected her question would be."Are you saying that Albus Dumbledore the leader of the light faction is gay? He only killed him because he killed his sister so he didn't have to marry her. Why would the history books exclude something like that? Or what do you mean they never found Grindelwald's body?"
Harry smiled simply for his answer was easy and understandable even for the most simple-minded." Hermione my dear, is gay even accepted in the non-mag world right now here in Britain or even the world? No, it is not and the Wizardry world is even worse on that, we are about 150 years behind inequality behind the non-magical world. So that is why Albus states that he only killed Grindelwald. Or Grindelwald was killed because he was a dark lord. Even if the two planned to control the world together. He presents himself as the leader for the greater good, but it is only his good that he wants no one else's, my situation. He is not who everyone thinks he is. Be careful of him my dear he does not care for others. Also, he is known to be a master of Occlumency. Or in normal terms, he is able to read your mind with a single look. So never look him in the eye or be alone with him, he uses a twinkle in his eye to draw your eyes to his own."
She was surprised and a bit shaken by her hero-worship of the man but trusted Harry. She nodded before noticing the train was rumbling to life. It seemed it was time to move on to Hogwarts. The two noticed that families were now waving and saying goodbye to the kids they might not see till the holiday weekend or even the summer holidays. Even the Grangers were waving to where they were. Harry made the charm disappear for a second so she could wave goodbye to her parents and he could to future family in-laws which made the Grangers smiling seeing the two smiling children in the carriage.
Sure enough, the train started to move out of the station. Once they were out of the station and speeding towards Hogwarts the two settled down. He put the charm back up and hid them again from people who would bug them or possibly try to use him. He soon let Dredd out of his tattoo form skin and soon the three of them were relaxing and waiting around till they got to Hogwarts even if the train ride is nearly 8 to 9 hours. The door Harry made was see-through so they could see what was happening on the train in the corridor. Yet to anyone else the door looked as if it was part of the wall between compartments.
Harry almost laughed at what he saw a few times within the first two hours. It was the youngest of the red-haired family he seemed to be searching for something or someone or more specifically himself. The next person he saw was a blonde-haired boy who almost had ferret features for a face. He had his hair slicked back in an attempt to show his status Harry guessed, the hair coloring of platinum blonde seemed wrong for him. Then there was one girl who seemed to him to know they were hidden away there for she stopped at the door and studied the spot carefully. She glared at it almost as if she was glaring at him or was able to see through it.
Harry had to admit she was a beautiful young lady. While some his age would avoid women since they thought of them as ugly or had some kind of disease. Due to his training and the sex/ life lessons he received from his mom while the training, which to his horror was done once a year. He could tell and appreciate the beauty of each woman as they went by him down the hallway. There was a girl that had pink hair he saw earlier that made him blush a bit. He did notice that she had his talent as well, nearly almost as good as his. For her to be able to change things about her since right before she got the train, he noticed that she changed to black hair and unnoticeable features as if she was hiding who she was. He wasn't sure why but he will find out. He also was almost puzzled when she walked by what he felt as if she had some tiny bit of blood relation to herself.
Back to the blonde girl in front of the door to the compartment. She was a bit tall for their age she was about 5 foot in height. She was already developing her womanly features. Her hair was even whiter than the ferret's boy. She had beautiful pale blue eyes that had a very dark blue ring around the pale blue eyes. The young girl's cheeks were very angled with higher set cheekbones. She did have the very small signs of baby fat that some have at their age but minimal, almost as if was maturing very fast. Her lips were plump, while her ears had a slight tip to them. Harry found her very beautiful and almost outer-worldly.
Then he noticed the crest on her front. It was the Greengrass's coat of arms. He knew soon as he saw the coat of arms that, this was his other Betrothed Daphne Lily Greengrass. He waved a hand and soon the girls surprise she could see inside and saw Harry and Hermione sitting there looking at her or studying her. She instantly saw the Lord's Potter ring on his hand. So she knew who he was she took a breathe and soon opened the door. Soon as she shut the door Harry sealed it again.
Daphne was surprised by the magic seen since it was a fifth-year spell, a very sure simple one but still way beyond the normal ability of a normal 11-year-old. She looked to Harry and spoke with a grace belonging to a royal court or a silver tongue of a Slytherin."Lord Potter, it truly is an honor to meet you, my name is Daphne Lily Greengrass. Presumptive heiress to the Greengrass family name. I am here to introduce myself and to offer a token of acceptance of the Greengrass family as an allied house." With that being said she produced two things one was a letter or something of that kind. The other was a dagger one of the Greengrass specialty makes. They were weapon smiths that were near par with the goblins yet they only used normal materials. Yet from the magic stepped into the process made the metal near the quality of the Goblin forged blades.
Harry knew what to do, thanks to the training with Morgana and ancient ceremonies. Who showed him the ways the Greengrass and many of the older families and how they always do to fulfill any contracts between houses. He conjures a very simple table, ignoring the gasps from both girls seeing even more advanced magic.
He then puts the contract on the table opened the letter. He then used the dagger to unlock the magic sealing it. He then used the dagger to cut his hand just enough to let the blood fall from his hand. Letting the blood fall to the paper by the time the paper flashed in light on the table. Hermione pulled a handkerchief out and helped cleaned the remaining blood away from his hand. This in turn revealed what was put to paper in times of the past. It was the original contract it seemed or their copy of the betrothal contract.
He smiled and nodded before explaining the situation to Hermione who was horrified and confused as to what she just witnessed. Since he doubted that she has ever seen it before.
"Hermione before your brain jumps to conclusions, remember exactly what I told your parents you were not the only one I was betrothed to. Heiress Daphne here was just completing the magical contract or showing me in faith the Greengrass copy. I did miss spoke when I said who penned the contract in the beginning. The contract was never really for me it was for my Godfather. He was in the magical form of prison till last month where he is unable to have kids so the contract passed onto me as I am his heir to the family. Although he was imprisoned without a trial the goblins and the head of DMLE are figuring out the exact reasons for that failure form of justice. She as head of the DMLE did declare him innocent and sent him to the magical hospital to recover from the prison. Although the effects might never go away as I said before. Daphne will recognize the name of my godfather. His name is Sirius Orion Black last male heir of the Black family."
He turned to Daphne and then told her the truth since she will have to know it as well." I am also the head of 10 other families besides the Potter and as you know Heir to the Black family. My full name is Harry James Potter-Gryffindor-Hufflepuff-Ravenclaw-Slytherin-Le-Fey-Perverell-Dracul-Pendragon and Evans. Also the presumptive heir of the Black family."
The girls both gasped at this since well did Hermione realized that Harry will eventually be the head of 12 houses. Who knows what contracts he has inherited from all his names. He says there were only two but there may be unofficial ones. The fact his uncle who was in prison is the one who made the contract or maybe because she now truly realized she would not be the only one. The same with Daphne she thought she was the only one to him with a contract. She was raised on knowing about a contract that was to the black family yet she thought it was to the heir Malfoy, yet to her, there always hope that he was not the heir to the family. She also realized that Harry is the true KING of the united kingdom as a whole. She bowed deeply with a knee to the floor, and said to him while keeping her head down."I am sorry for such disrespect I showed to you my Highness."
She stopped when she felt a hand on her shoulder, then to her chin as it lifted her head. She looked into Harry's eyes and he then told her with a kind of a voice he could while being embarrassed. "Daphne Lily Greengrass there is nothing wrong with what you presented or your respect. You did not know so there is no reason for the disrespect if any at all. Also, I am asking you to keep this quiet from everyone even your family till I tell them. I don't need more titles than what most people call me behind my back or when first meeting me. Which is of course as the BOY-WHO-LIVED."
He helped her stand and motioned for her to take a seat she seemed hesitant to do so. She asked in a tremble before the true king."May I go get two of my friends? I was sitting with them before, and while coming back from the washroom I stopped when I noticed the charm." Harry smiled and nodded yes since he would never keep someone from their friends. She soon tore out of the room to head to get her best friend Tracey Davis and an older girl who offered to sit with them since she knew what it was like being new to the train. She was the daughter of their parent's friends the mother was actually once was a black. Her name was Nymphadora Tonks, who was only two years their senior. She quickly explained they were changing carriages for special reasons.
To hang out with her Betrothed and that was all the two other girls needed to be told before they grabbed their stuff and were following her to the carriage. Soon Daphne was knowing on the section of a wall that confused them. Till the charm dropped and the two were shocked he knew that charm already. Harry unlocked the door and soon the three girls were inside and Tracey was blushing madly as she looked at Harry. Due to her fantasizing about Harry thanks to the books that were out.
Soon as she came in the door Nymphadora was saying to both Harry and Hermione."Now before they say anything you can call me Dora or Tonks. My real name is Nymphadora and I really hate that name, I have no idea what gave my mother the idea to name me that. If you wanted to know I am a Hufflepuff. Although the sorting almost put me in Ravenclaw. I found out last summer the reason why it wanted that. My IQ is near 150 just above that Hawking's fellow, also I tend to have a thirst for knowledge."
Harry smiled and asked her simply since he knew his reason but curious about her own reason. "Is that why you also change your appearance from your natural one. Because you hate your natural beauty, a beauty your mother knew you would have as you got older. You may hide it being a Metamorphmagus above normal standards. Yet remember if someone can't accept you for who you are they are not worth your time. Please Nymphadora there is no reason to hide who you are we will accept you all the same. Trust me, Nymphadora Tonks." He waved his hand to the three other girls in the compartment. Sure enough, what he said seemed to surprise the girl.
She almost bristled and glared by the full name but realized that he was right and she was hiding who she exactly. She changed her looks back into her natural looks. Her hair was as white as Hedwig was there were some traces of some colors in the hair but it added to her beauty. Her natural pale white skin was seen, it reminded Harry of Morgana. She was almost albino if you didn't account for the light amount of freckles on her face. Her eyes turned almost orange with hints of red in them.
She seemed uncomfortable but was calming down a bit very slowly. She saw that the girls were staring but with smiles in their eyes. Harry was blushing a bit, she was a bit confused, and then she remembered why. She may only be fourteen years old since her birthday was only a couple of days ago. But she was well endowed for her age even more than her own mother. Her chest was already 34 E cup. Which caused lots of unwanted attention by her class so she hid them from a b to maybe a c cup size. Which she still might do anyways since that size gets uncomfortable for her petite frame.
Harry then looked her in the eyes and smiled his crooked smile. She soon felt her heartbeat pick up and some color going to her pale cheeks, she also felt as if her cheeks were on fire from his look alone. He looked to Tracey, her, and Daphne's then bursted their bubble of who he was not what they have heard from their parents. He told them his history the same as he told the grangers and that he was not a normal wizard he found out. He brought out Dreadnought. He explained that the staff was only for emergencies and not for public use unless necessary or in need of it. Maybe only dealing with a certain meddler or two.
Everyone was amazed and a bit scared of the staff. Since the staff glowed with a very eerie glow from the creature's crystal eyes. He explained why by showing them the stone that was creating the light coming through the gem. No one recognized it except for Hermione who read the books of where it came from. Which were a true tale just not as long of a story as they say it was. The first book was only like three weeks and the war of the five armies did not happen. The other three books were only about a month later when the companions tracked down the ring and got it destroyed which in terms brought about the red sea. Though the Arkenstone was lost after a few hundred years once again. Or better yet it was stolen by Merlin right before his death by Arthur Pendragon once he discovered his betrayal to magical Britain and the world.
He also explained that he had gotten some help from his family through the rings and they showed him a place where underage magic would not be detected. Although since he was emancipated and a lord the trace was done from him as well it would not matter anyway. He also explained that Albus Dumbledore had gone against his parent's will and also tried to make a contract between him and Ginevra Weasley. Since at the time he just went under emancipation the contract was void not even three minutes later since they just finished signing the contract. He also explained how he called the goblin king of England his brother. Which in turn got him as a friend and family of the nation. Which only one other person has ever received before.
He did explain his family and all the names he has now. He did have to stop the girls from acting as Daphne did when she first found out he was the true king. He hates his titles and asked them to call him Harry since they were friends and family in a way since Tonks was an ex-Black. Then there was Tracey who was almost a sister to Daphne. since they knew each other since they were in the crib.
Harry was technically the safest person in the world. Yet at the same time, he was also a targetted person by both the light and dark. The girls were curious about a couple of the titles he had listed in his name. Tonks was the first to ask since she was the most outspoken of the three which surprised them." What is the family of Dracul and Le-fey? I thought Morgana Le-fey was the last of her line and also the very first Dark Maiden? Also are you the Heir to Hogwarts since you have all the names as well?"
Harry smiled before feeling the smooth form slithering of Dredd in his shirt."I will explain in a second about those names. Though first I want you to meet my first Familiar the second was, of course, Hedwig the beautiful snowy owl here. My first was Dredd who is a very beautiful yet deadly snake. If you react badly he will as well due to his breed of snake. So just be calm he won't hurt you he knows Hermione."
Sure enough, the snake crawled out of his shirt by his neck. Dredd soon slithered to Hermione before tasting the others on the air and nodded before relaxing around Harry and Hermione. Which caused Hermione to run her hand along with the snake and rubbed under his chin, which caused the snake to shudder and almost smile. The girls relaxed seeing he was friendly before looking to Harry to continue. Even if they were a bit scared of the snake that was big enough to wrap around Harry and squeeze him to death.
Harry ran a hand through his hair and started to explain the beginning of his family. "Now the Hogwarts lines are fastest. The Slytherin and Gryffindor lines are from the same line just split. They also were twins known as Salazar and Godric, which eventually adopted their own last names after their parent's demise. Their parents were half-siblings. One of Arthur Pendragon with his sister Morgana Le-fey. Also, the twins married the other founders Helga and Rowena. Salazar and Helga had three children who became the Peverell's they later also became different families. They were written about in the Beetle and the Bard book I believe. They were better known as the Peverell brothers as I said before. The first brother became the Dracul after he came to the First Vampire after a fight from a special breed of vampire."He let that sink in their shocked minds before continuing his explanation.
"The next after a failed family of being Squibs they changed their names to Evens. The last of the brothers split and the Pervell line died while the other became the Potters. Now on to the so-called dark maiden known as Morgana Le-Fey. She was also not dark, maybe in some terms but in others, it was teetering to the so-called dark. She fought for the rights of the goblins and other magical creatures it is her that the goblins became our bankers. Also Nymphadora your uncle is my Godfather by ritual and is now in St. Mungo's after being declared Innocent by the head of DMLE when I met with her and showed her evidence of his innocence. He was also somehow the head of the family even after being cast out as a teenager."
Tonks frowned at that and explained how he might have become the head of the Black family."He never was actually cast out, unlike my mother was though. All because she didn't marry a pureblood but a first-generation who is of course my father. He only had in fact only ran away from the black family and into the potter family arms, which makes sense since your Grandmother was his aunt. Also shouldn't most of those lines then only be as Le-fey and Pendragon or am I missing something there?"
Harry shrugged and said simply."From what the goblins told me the Families just registered that way. Just because of the types of magic they used at the time. So who am I to judge it or their choices from so long ago. I hate it knowing I am technically the king of Britain both Magical and non-mag at the same time, all thanks to the blood that flows through my veins. I only wanted to be just Harry James Potter, son of James and Lily Potter. Then again nothing ever goes the way we want it to."
Tonks looked at a watch on her wrist and told Harry."If you want some food or anything from the trolly on here you might want to unseal the room so she finds us and sells it to us."Harry nodded and sure enough not even 40 seconds later an older witch came up with a trolly and asked them all."Anything from the trolly dears." Everyone looked at was on the trolly, which besides Tonks, surprised them seeing such a selection to pick from. Or how the prices of the treats were actually cheaper than most of the stores would sell them for.
They looked to Harry and he smiled before pulling out ten galleons from his pocket and said with a crooked smile."We will take a bit of everything."The Lady was wide-eyed and mentioned simply."That amount you have enough for you five to get the whole trolly till the end of your schooling deary." He smiled but nodded all the same to her since money would never be an issue. She accepted it and asked their names so no reason for her to ask later. They all told her and she was shocked by his but shrugged since she could keep a secret from others on the train. She soon walked away to get a new cart for the rest of the train.
The five of them were soon having fun with all the candy that Harry had bought them. Harry had gotten a chocolate frog with Albus Dumbledore and a little tidbit about his work with a man named Nicholas Flamel. Who was famous for making a Philosopher's stone. He filled it away just in case, considering he never forgot anything anyways. He watched as the girls all now were enjoying each other even Dredd was lounging amongst all of them enjoying all the petting he was receiving. He hissed to Harry."§You better be keeping these friends of yours I like them. They are all nice and have a good soul in them. They all seem to have a soul similar to you.§"
Harry even hissed back to the snake surprising everyone at the use of the language besides Hermione who heard him do it only a month ago."§Oh I know, I feel drawn to Tonks a bit, and Tracey seems to be a good friend and close to Daphne. I'll have to ask about that later.§" He noticed the two were holding hands since they sat together across from him. They did have a look between the two when they thought no one was looking. He smiled since he accepted that the two were maybe bi or had experimented with each other. This is very normal for many of their age, well more girls than boys.
After a while, a voice was heard in the cabin from somewhere, Harry figured it was a recording charm set up for a certain time."Attention students the train will be stopping in 10 minutes please change into your robes. Please change into robes First years will wait on the end of the platform for their transportation to the castle. Hagrid will find you at the end of the platform." Harry conjured up a separator between them with a quick wave surprising Tonks and Tracey. He quickly put on his robes he waited till for the girls to be done, he eventually heard quietly from Daphne."You can come out Harry we are done."
He dropped the separator and smiled as he saw everyone was dressed up in their black robes. All but tonks were missing any crests, She had a sign of badger on a yellow golden shield. He was shocked when both Hermione and Daphne gave him a kiss on the cheek he did blush a bit though from the feeling. Hermione was the first to answer the silent question."That was for being a gentleman and not peaking when you could of peaked through the partition. We can tell you didn't since no one sensed any magic. Plus the Barrier was black so it was impossible to see through, without magic."
Harry nodded and kissed them both back."I thank you both, wonderful ladies to grace me a humble man such a gift as a kiss." This caused all girls to blush and tonks to mutter."I knew I should have given him a kiss as well. Tracey seemed to agree. Even if she was broken from her hero-worship for the most part. Harry soon applied some well-hated Makeup to his forehead hiding the scar so one would be disrespectful or hero-worship him so quickly. Tonks did give everyone a quick rundown of all the teachers and their behaviors. Also gave them a warning about the Professor known as Severus Snape who was a reformed death eater. Also, that the deputy Headmistress was Professor McGonagall she followed whatever Dumbledore decided and was head of the Gryffindor house. The lady was strict and never had favorites even though she did hold her house above the rest.
They all had agreed to ask to be in Ravenclaw since they all wanted to be together since they all became close on the trip to school. Tonks was a tiny bit upset by them not wanting to be in Hufflepuff. Yet Harry gave her a very good reason. "That way since both me and Hermione have perfect recall it ain't questioned. While both Tracey and Daphne are smarter than most our age and believe that merit is important. I also believe this will stop the old meddler's plans a bit since I won't be in the golden house. He has plans for me according to the goblins and they want me to stay away from him as much as possible. Also keeps everyone away from his pet snake and lion. Plus remember my mother was called the brightest witch of her age for her being so smart so maybe I got mine from her."
That seemed to be accepted by Tonks and everyone soon got off the train. Putting their stuff with the rest besides Hedwig who flew to the castle on Harry's word. He knew she would come for breakfast. Since she wanted bacon for being forced to leave him and to see her familiar. Harry didn't realize she would come down every chance she could for the bacon and see her partner. They all soon headed to where they needed to go for the first trip. Tonks to the carriages with a wave over her shoulders and the four first years followed the rest to where they saw a half-giant was waiting for them.
