"Hogwarts is gonna be the bombdiggity off da heezy fo rizzle, yo!" a girl in a plaid jumper and thick glasses greeted Alex as she entered the otherwise deserted compartment aboard the Hogwarts Express.
"Uh…represent," replied Alex, running her fingers through her freshly straightened brown hair. An awkward train ride soon followed, disrupted by the occasional "Get krunk!" which was always followed up by Alex giving the clearly confused girl the finger.
The compartment door suddenly opened without warning.
"Oh! Is this the Hogwarts Express?" a boy with a strongly Korean accent inquired. Alex rolled her eyes. The gangsta honey knew just what to do, though.
"Fo shizzle dis is the Hogwarts Express, homedawg!" she exclaimed, adjusting her glasses.
The boy's hand flew directly to his head, moaning as if he had a headache. "Oh! You're confusing me!" he screamed, running out of the compartment in anguish, presumably to throw himself out of the nearest window.
Alex had never been so impressed in her life. "How did you do that?" she marveled.
"Shoot, it was nothing, homeslice," she said, braids jumping up and down with the movement of the train. Alex reconsidered her short-lived admiration for the girl. The train then pulled into the station.
"Oh yeah, we in da hood now!" the strange girl announced as Alex tried to avoid choking on her own spit while stifling her laughter.
"By the way, g, I'm Emily. But da boys back in da hood call me Laqueesha," she proclaimed while pulling out her inhaler.
Alex raised her eyebrow, trying to figure out what to make of the girl. "I'm Alex."
Emily nodded in acknowledgement. The train pulled to a complete stop. Alex and Emily awkwardly waved goodbye to each other and got off the train, Alex mentally adding up how many days she would be stuck with the geek with the ghetto booty for. It was a sad, sad day for Alex indeed.
