Louise surveyed the scene with anticipation written all over her face, this just didn't seem right as she was already feeling thoroughly confused on having fallen through a solid wall. Surely English wizards had heard of unicorns, like her old school had. At Watermist Louise had travelled in a unicorn pulled sled with her friends and they had all been given furry white cloaks to wear on the ride up to the school. Each unicorn had pulled up to the destined house or students residence and requested their presence. Louise knew of trains however, she had certainly heard of English trains and the system they were run on as she was from only France, which was 200 miles across the channel. Louise was wondering why this particular train hadn't broken down years ago, as it looked very old and if what she'd heard her Aunt say, it had indeed been working for over 40 years.

'Does anyone remember what it was like to be one of them?' Sirius asked James, noticing a group of nervous looking first years huddling in a corner away from everyone.

'No, 'cos I was never that shy' James said glancing at the first years who, even though they were stood together, weren't saying a peep to one another.

'We know that' Remus said, heaving his rucksack over his shoulder 'Should we help 'em?'

'Nah, Lizzie never helped us so why should we help them, anyway to be honest I can't be arsed with first years at the minute' James said in between yawning, the three of them were waiting for their fourth and final friend, Peter to show up.

'We are only second years' Remus said wisely 'we're meant to set an example…'

'And be the protectors of the little squirts' James finished, though judging by the look on Remus' face that was not what he had intended to say at all. 'Sorry Remus'

' Yes, well if its alright with you two I think I'll go find us a carriage, always good to find a decent one that you don't have to share with other people' and Remus jumped onto the train, leaving his luggage with James and Sirius while he looked for a compartment.

'Why are you so anti-first year all of a sudden?' Sirius asked curiously, James sighed; he didn't want to tell anyone of Rose, as she would probably wish to hang around with him and everything. The last thing James wanted was a mini-mother hanging around with him at school.

'James, I lost you back on the platform. I went to the barrier between 8 and 7 instead!' Rose said, she swept her hair out of her eyes and peered round James' back to where Sirius stood with one foot up against the wall. 'Oh hello!'

'And you are?' Sirius shrugged, James dreaded her answer and spun round before Rose had time to reply.

'Shes nobody, got lost on the platform, didn't you, you little tyke' and James ruffled her hair affectionately, Rose looked at her brother strangely and ducked out of the way.

'Did you run into the wrong barrier James? Or did you hit your head again on the sliding door?' Rose raised her hand to feel James forehead and he pushed it away irritated.

'James, going to introduce me to your charming little friend?' Sirius said, grinning and James glared at him, biting his top lip he then said in a rather deflated voice.

'Sirius, this is Rose' he sighed 'Shes my cousin' he nodded and Rose seemed to be getting fully angry by this point and Louise couldn't help but over hearing.

'Why are you doing this James?' Rose demanded, stamping her foot on the platform. James glared at her pointedly; she then went on to say in a raised voice 'Are you ashamed of me?'

'Is everything ok?' Louise asked timidly, Rose turned to her and smiled slightly 'Is this girl bothering you?' Rose had not expected this reaction and James surveyed this new girl with puzzlement, but something about her made him feel comfortable but he didn't know what.

'No, I can handle it' James said bracingly

'Excuse me I'm the one being ignored!' Rose cried, the warning whistle on the train blew shrilly for five to 11. Louise looked from James to Rose then wandered back to her spot, she gathered her things up and clambered onto the train alone.

'I'm your sister! You can't ignore me forever!' Rose cried and clambered onto the train herself leaving James alone with Sirius whilst they waited for Peter, he appeared seconds later fully out of breath.

'Got-up-late' he breathed, clinging to his side. 'Regina-nicked-alarm-clock'

'Well you're not the only one whose fed up with sisters' James muttered as they hauled there trunks onto the guards van with Sirius' help.
