Disclaimer: I don't own the house elves but, I do own their names. I think.
A/N: How is it so far? I know it's bad. Hmmm. I'm trying and this is only my first fic so go easy on me.
************************************************************************
Previous chapter: They finished their shopping and headed back to the shack where they were staying to get away from everyone. They called it their little vacation.
************************************************************************
The next day the trio awoke bright and early so they could get a good spot on the train. They packed up their things as fast as they could which wasn't really that fast because they were so tired from the day before. As soon as they were done they headed toward the train station. (Which may I ad was a long ways away)
"It's a good thing we got up early," Ruby said cheerfully
"Why?" Riddle asked yawning. "I am still half asleep."
"It's not my fault you two bone heads decided to stay up late playing go fish"
"We never did finish it," Lucius yawned.
"What time is it?" Riddle asked curiously
"Umm. it's about 6:00" Ruby stated looking at her watch
Riddle yawned "What?"
"I know I know but we have to get a good spot!" Ruby reassured "We'll find one of the bigger compartments so we'll have more room to sleep."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever." Riddle yawned
"I don't care as long as I get to sleep," Lucius yawned
They arrived there fairly early. About 8:45 to be exact. They boarded the train, this year Lucius didn't have to deal with embarrassing goodbyes. Although Ruby didn't either she still really wished that her parents were there to say good bye to. The train finally started to take off so Lucius and Riddle decided to go to sleep. Ruby wasn't tired so she pulled one of her books out of her bag.
About 4 hours later they were interrupted by a squeaking noise. The trolley lady was coming down the hall.
"Hello dears, anything off of the trolley?"
"I'll take the lot," Lucius pulled out 5 galleons and six sickles.
"Here you are. Anything else?"
"No we're fine thanks," Ruby and Riddle said in chorus
Riddle and Lucius ate a lot and then they fell right asleep leaving the compartment a mess. So Ruby decided to clean it up.
About 3 hours later Electra Elliston stopped by their compartment.
"Hello, Electra," Ruby stated looking up from her book
"Oh hi Ruby," she replied
"You aren't changed yet. And neither are they." She said pointing at Riddle and Lucius
Lucius let out a big snort and Electra giggled.
"Here wanna see something really funny?" Ruby asked
"Sure."
"Okay."
Ruby put her mouth really close to Riddle's ear and she whispered "Wake up"
Then when he didn't wake up she kissed him on the cheek and he sat bolt up and looked at her. Then he looked up at Electra "Did she do what I think she just did?" and Electra nodded then Riddle began bouncing around and then he started cursing and the two girls just laughed and laughed.
Then Ruby did the same thing with Lucius and then the girls and Riddle laughed and laughed. Finally they settled down and Ruby told them that they have to get their robes on. So they did as instructed. Electra left and Ruby, Riddle and Lucius just sat there until the train finally came to a stop.
*************************
They went into the great hall but no one was there so they just decided to go up to their rooms. They got most of their things unpacked when Ruby rushed into the boys' dormitory.
"I just saw the clock and the ceremony will be starting in 3 minutes," she said in between breaths
So they rushed out of the common room and ran into none other than Professor Dumbledore.
"Hello professor," Riddle laughed nervously
"I am not even going to ask. Report to the Great Hall immediately or report to me tonight for detention."
"The Great Hall sounds good to me. How about you guys?" Riddle smiled nervously
"Yeah! The Great Hall sounds great." Ruby and Lucius said all to fast and not quite together.
The three of them sped away towards the Great Hall.
After the ceremony the three nuisances went to their dorms to finish unpacking their things. When they were finished they met back in the common room. Everyone else was still unpacking lucky for them.
"I can't believe we ran into Dodo-dore," Riddle said out of nowhere.
"Yeah what was he doing anyways?" Ruby wondered
"Hmm. I wonder. dun dun dun." Riddle joked
"I guess we'll never know," Lucius sighed
"Oh well," Riddle shrugged
"Ruby. are you dead?" Lucius asked
"Huh.Yeah, yeah.whatever," She replied without thinking. She was too busy reading her novel Terror on Main Street. It was a muggle book about a deadly werewolf. She knew what the story said wasn't even remotely true but she still loved the thrill.
"Okay Lu she's dead let's go get some chow." Riddle laughed
Riddle and Lucius made their way through the halls to the place that they visited quite often last year, the kitchen. The halls were loaded with prefects so they had to be careful. They got completely lucky. When they reached their destination they met their favorite house elf Elasey.
"Anything I can get you masters?" The young elf asked
"Umm. How about a chili dog with the works, and a butterbeer." Riddle commanded
"Same here," Lucius stated boldly
"Will do," The elf squeaked and she disappeared with a pop.
Moments later she reappeared with a pop and was holding the orders on two silver trays.
"Here you are. Bone appetite." And she left them to eat.
They finished quickly and called for the house elf once again. She appeared with a pop and had an angry look on her face. "What is it now?"
"We are finished," Riddle stated
"Oh then I will take your trays"
"Thank you. We had best be going now though."
Just as they exited the kitchen they ran into a prefect.
"Oh no not you two," The prefect shook his head and asked, "What are you doing this time? Wait I probably don't wanna know."
"We were eating," Riddle said proudly
"Why would you be eating? We just had dinner. Well I hate to do this but detention."
"Awe man, I knew it!" Lucius whined
"Now please go to your dorms and don't come out till morning."
"Okay," Riddle sighed and the two of them walked to the dungeons sulkily.
They did as they were told and went to sleep.
