Disclaimer: You should know it by now! Oh yeah, I also own Justin Potter and Jessica and Landon Weasley.

(A/N) Thank you to all my reviewers!

BraveSpiritGryffindor: I know the chapters are short, but remember this story is told in two different points of view. Anyway, I think this is the longest chapter I've written so far!

Chapter Six- Hogwarts Express

Arissa

I never thought today would come. Today is a big day in the Malfoy family; the day we will prove Lucius wrong. There will not be another Malfoy in Slytherin, at least not while we're there!

"Arissa? Are you awake?" Simone whispered, tapping at my door.

"Yes," I whispered back. "Come in."

Simone stared into the blackness of my room. "I can't sleep."

"I can't either," I confessed. "Can you believe it, Simone? We're finally going to Hogwarts!"

"I know!" she exclaimed. "We will prove to everyone that there's more to a Malfoy than being a Slytherin!"

I smiled at her last statement. "There will be no Malfoys in Slytherin. It starts with us!"

"Arissa!"

"It's true, Simone! We are going to end this once and for all!"

She sighed. I think she knew I was right. "I guess I'd better get back to bed," she said as she got up.

"I guess so. We have a busy day ahead of us."

I watched as my sister shuffled to my door. Right before she closed it, she whispered," Thanks, sis. You really helped me out."

I smiled, turned over on my side, and fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.

A Few Hours Later

"Arissa, wake up!"

I groaned and buried my head under my pillow.

"Arissa, you don't want to miss the train to Hogwarts!"

Hogwarts! I almost forgot! Simone and I are supposed to go to Hogwarts today!

I sat bolt upright in my bed, whacking my head into Simone's.

"Ouch! Geez, Arissa, aren't you jumpy today?" she asked, rubbing her forehead.

I blushed. "I'm sorry, 'Mone!"

She laughed. "It's alright! Really, it is!"

"Are you two awake yet?" Dad called from downstairs.

"Yes!" I answered.

"Well get dressed and get down here!"

"Ok!" I turned towards my sister. "What should I wear?"

"Muggle clothes, of course! We can't be seen wearing our school robes! The Ministry would kill us!"

"Excuse me, but who's the quiet one?"

"Shut up, Rissa!"

I grinned. "Now get out so I can get dressed!"

After making sure I looked decent, wearing a pair of jeans, a turquoise shirt, and a turquoise necklace Dad bought for me, I went downstairs.

"See, Dad? I told you Arissa was awake!"

"Shut up, Simone!"

He laughed. "Come on, you two, settle down. Don't want to go to Hogwarts with broken limbs, right?"

Mum chuckled. "Did you pack everything?"

"Didn't you ask us that last night?" I asked.

"It doesn't hurt to double check, right?"

"I guess it doesn't," I said slowly. "But we have everything we need for our first year at school."

She smiled. "We'd better get going, Draco. We don't want the girls to miss the train."

Since Dad had put our trunks in the car last night, we were ready to go to King's Cross Station. With our owls' cages in our hands, we left the house we had grown up in.

After about twenty minutes, we arrived at King's Cross. I asked Dad how to get onto the platform.

"All you need to do is walk through the barrier between platforms 9 and 10."

"And if you're nervous, run," Mum added.

"We're not nervous!" Simone and I exclaimed together.

Mum smiled. "I know you're not. I forget you've never really been nervous in your entire lives."

"Can we go to the platform? Please?" Simone asked.

"Yes, you can. Hermione, you go first with Simone. Arissa and I will follow you."

A few minutes later, I saw Mum and Simone vanish through the barrier.

"Are you ready, Arissa?"

"Let's go!"

A few seconds later, we were on the platform with Mum and Simone.

We got our things on the train and settled into a compartment.

"We'll see you during the holidays!" Mum called from the platform.

"Bye, girls. Behave! Don't forget to send us an owl after you've been Sorted!" Dad yelled.

We waved until we saw our parents vanished from sight.

We never noticed the three people standing at the door to our compartment.

"Hey, Arissa! Simone!"

We turned around. There stood Justin Potter, who was a 3rd year Gryffindor, Landon Weasley, another 3rd year Gryffindor, and his little sister, Jessica, who was in our year.

"Reunited on the Hogwarts Express!" Jessica exclaimed.

We all laughed. "Why don't you three come in and share our compartment?" I asked.

"Okay," Justin said. "Come on!"

 About twenty minutes later, a fat woman came up with a trolley filled with sweets.

"Anything off the trolley, dears?" she asked.

"Can we get some Chocolate Frogs? And some Bertie Botts' Every Flavor Beans?" Simone asked.

The woman smiled. "Of course!"

"You're a bold one, Simone," Justin said.

"What? I like these jelly beans!"

"Anything else?" the woman asked.

"I'll take a few Cauldron Cakes and some Pumpkin Pasties," I said.

After everyone else bought their sweets, she left.

After many games of Exploding Snap, and after we changed our robes, we arrived at Hogwarts.

"We're finally here!" Jessica, Simone, and I exclaimed.

(A/N) My fingers hurt from typing that long chapter! The next chapter, the girls are (finally) Sorted! Review!
