On September 1st, Kathyrn Watson followed her mother and father through the barrier to Platform 9 3/4. "Dont worry Mother I'll be fine" Katy assured her, "Well if it isnt my best buddy in the entire world" a sarcastic voice said behind her, Katy noticed her mother and father had left then spun around to see Regulus Black. "Oh yes.. I love you too" she spat sarcastically. Suddenly arms enveloped her from behind and she stiffened, then heard a voice. "Oh Hello there older brother.. fraternizing with my friends now huh?" it snapped. Regulus laughed ironically and walked off. The arms dropped from around her and spun her to face the person. Katy looked up to see Sirius, and rolled her eyes then her lips curved slightly "Thank you for that" she muttered. "Hey couldnt let you suffer now could I?" Sirius asked grabbing the handle to his trunk, Katy doing the same with hers as they headed down the platform to the baggage car their trunks wrattling along behind them through the crowd. "So.. how was your summer?" Sirius asked as he wove his way through the crowd, Katy behind him. "So much different from last week when you were there!" Katy called above the crowd sarcastically, Sirius let out a bark like laugh. When they reached the baggage car, Sirius put both his and Katy's trunks away. "I could do that myself you know" she said tilting her head slightly and looking to Sirius. "You know you look better that way" a voice said beside them, Katy turned expecting to see Snape but instead saw James with a goofy grin on his face. Katy laughed shoving him playfully, "God I hate you" she said cheerfully. "Aww now I'm offended" James said hugging her anyways, Katy rolled her eyes. James made to hug Sirius but he blocked him with his arms, "Man you hug me.. I kill you" Sirius said. "Yea he doesnt like to be touched.." Katy said shrugging then thought to herself looking to Sirius, "Speaking of which why did you hug me earlier.. if you dont like people touching you.." she asked perking a brow. "Because you werent touching me.. I was touching you" Sirius explained boredly, as if it were obvious. "Thank you for specifying.. now can you all move?" a female voice snapped, the three of them slide aside to see a girl with long fiery red hair putting her trunk away. She was about 4 inches shorter than even Katy, and had bright green eyes in muggle clothing. "Your a muggle born arent you?" Sirius asked, "A what?" the girl asked confused, Katy smiled extending a hand "I'm Kathyrn Watson.. this is Sirius Black and James Potter" she said politely, The girl shook her hand smiling "Lily Evans" she said nodding. "Ah anyways.. a muggle born is someone who has non-magic parents" Katy explained as she and Lily hopped on the train, the boys following them on. "Yea I'm a muggle-born then" Lily said, "A muggle is a non-magic folk by the way" James said with a dreamy expression looking to Lily. "I think we clarified that" Lily said rolling her eyes, "Well it was nice meeting all of you" she said and huried off down the hall. "Come on.." Sirius said tugging James into a compartment, as Katy followed. Katy sighed pulling her hair out of the french braid her mother had put it in, Katy had naturally long honey blonde hair. She ran her fingers through it when she noticed someone up the door her head shot up. It was a boy about her height with shaggy brown hair and honey colored eyes. "Um.. is this seat taken everywhere else is full?" he asked signalling to the seat beside Sirius across from Katy. "No.." Katy responded automatically. The boy nodded sitting down as he set his small black owl down on the floor, the thing was about the size of a softball and buzzing wildly inside the cage. "Aww its so cute" Katy said smiling down at the owl. "Only you" Sirius commented then turned to the boy. "Sirius Black.." he said extending a hand, "and these fools are James Potter and Kathyrn Watson" he added. The boy shook his hand "Remus Lupin.. nice too meet you all" the boy said nodding. "Well Kathyrn.." James said fakely, Katy sighed, "Yes James Thomas Harold Potter?" she said smiling innocently. Sirius began cracking up as James scowled. Remus was fighting laughter at his amusing compartment mates. James rolled his eyes. "Aww Jamsie.. dont be mad.." Katy said snuggling up beside him and resting her head on his shoulder, James snorted and put his arm around her shoulders. James then messed with her hair twirling it between his fingers, "James.." Katy said innocently, James perked a brow "yes?" he asked still toying with her hair. "If my hair has one tangle or knot in it.. due to your nervous prying fingers I will kick your.." she began when the door slammed open. There stood Severus Snape with a blonde haired boy. "Ah told you they were here.." Snape said, Katy smiled slightly "Why Hello Severus" She said fakely. Sirius coughed to hide his laughter, James was still toying with Katy's hair when Katy pushed his arm off and sat up straight. "So what happened to your nose?" she asked with fake concern, this sent James and Sirius into Peals of laughter. Snape slammed the door walking off, the other boy following him. "What just happened?" Remus asked looking up from the book he was reading. "Katy broke his nose last week at camp.. because he was bugging us" James explained. "She did?" Remus asked stunned looking to the petite girl infront of him. "Yea man Katy's a bad ass she may be small but never get on her bad side.." Sirius said shuddering. "Top marks in Junior Auror Camp" James boasted. "You guys can stop flaunting my achievements now" Katy said leaning back in her seat crossing her arms over her chest. "Aww We're sorry Katy Bear" James said slinging an arm back over her shoulder toying with her hair again. "You love messing with my hair dont you?" she asked, James grinned nodding, just as the door opened again, it was the Trolley lady. "Anything from the trolley dears?" she asked, Sirius and James stood up buying lots of stuff, as the trolley lady left. "Here.." Sirius said noticing Remus' confused face, handing him a box of Bernie Bott's every flavor beans. "Uh thanks" Remus muttered nodding as he opened the box. The rest of the trip was pretty boring, with James and Sirius playing poker, Remus reading his book and Katy falling asleep against James, her head on his lap as she laid curled up in a fetal position on half the bench.
When they arrived at Hogwarts, James woke Katy up, as she sat up stretching and looked around. "We're at Hogwarts?!" she asked, then began to freak out. "Whats wrong?" Remus asked confused. "I havent put my robe on yet" Katy answered. "Neither have we" Sirius answered perking a brow. Katy pointed out their compartment window to passing students in uniforms, "Ah..sh--" James began when Katy slapped a hand over his mouth. "Dont curse James" Katy said simply, then saw Lily pass and grabbed a robe slipping the main part over her muggle outfit and huried out to find Lily. James rolled his eyes grabbing his uniform and doing what Katy said putting on the main part over his outfit carrying the pants, blouse and tie, the others followed his example. By the time they got off the train, they heard a tall giant man yelling "Firs' years this way! Four to a boat!". James noticed Katy in a boat with Lily and some other boy all talking animatedly. James sighed "So much for us being together at the sorting ceremony" he muttered. Sirius glanced at him then to Katy's boat, "Mate.. she'll still be at the ceremony the same time we will.." he assured James resting a hand on his shoulder. James, Remus and Sirius all hopped in a boat together along with a chubby boy with short blonde hair.
