Chapter 3

Boats and Castles

"Emily wake up" I heard Scorpion say while shaking her she slowly opened her eyes "hmm?" she asked too see herself laying her head on Ray's eyes flashed open fast as soon as he felt movements but then calmed down seeing it was just Emily and he yawned while streaching Emily snuck out from underneath his arms. "Ray lets go" she said "mmm..already" he said she poked him "yes" while Emily slowly stood up "why did you wake me up?"he asked in a grumpy voice "I didn't Scorpion did" Emily told him he shrugged and stood up he streached more and yawned widely scratching the side of his head "alright lets go" he said while lighting a cigarette in his mouth while Emily did the same with hers and they walked outside of the train.

"God I thought you two where just going to sleep till the train was back in England " Sabrina said jokingly they gave her a look that told her they were not happy of being woken up so she lit a cigarette and they walked towards the row boats "uh-oh" Ray said too Emily while looking at Cobra who hated , hated the water or more like petrified of the water he didn't mind looking or swiming in the water but he wasn't fond of boats.

"You got to be kidding me" Cobra groaned "oh come on its just in your head" Sabrina told him he glared at her "well my head is saying stay away from the water" he snapped at her who just shook her head "come on Cobra were going too be late" Carol said and pushed him onto the boat which was a miracle since Cobra's feet where deep in the sand but Carol wasn't a weakling Cobra began to shake like a leaf and went over too the back of the boat and turned pale.

"Come on Cobra its not that bad" Ray said too him patting his back Cobra just gulped "come on you went on roller coasters and I have never seen you pale like that before" Sabrina said he just glared at her then he slowly looked into the water water swallowed nervously he felt sick just by simply looking into the water.

They began too row Cobra lost it when they went under the bridge "eww whats wrong with you?" a small first yearer said in disgust he slowly lifted his head and glared at her but then turned a nasty shade of green and turned to face the water and heaved out his somewhat lunch he had on the train"he doesn't like boats" Carol said "oh" the girl said and thought nothing about it "wow this joint is huge!" Ray exclamied looking up at the castle Emily looked up as they hit a bump and fell onto Ray's lap who grinned "already falling for me huh? can't you wait till were not in public" he asked her jokingly in those tisk .. tisk tones Emily blushed feriously and splashed him with her paddle.

Some water fell onto Harry who cried out in surprise soon all three of them where splashing each other "hey!hey! you guys are tipping the boat!"Ron exclaimed too late the boat tipped over and EmilyRay,Harry and Ron had fallen into the water they gasped as they entered the water as they all three emerged from the water they heard some giggles and they climbed back onto the boat Ray and Emily swearing and shivering but grinning as they stared at each other for a bit smiling.

Cough...cough Sabrina coughed they turned away from each other blushing so they could have repesented two blonde cherries "get a room" Cobra shouted at them making them blush so hard that they where redder then Ron's hair "shut up Collie" Ray told him Cobra turned red faster then anyone had seen. He hated his name he threw Ray back into the water a little bit and pretty hard. Ray emerged from the water coughing and splurterring cussing Cobra out so loudly and rudely that Cobra jumped into too the water Ray dove under fast 'shit' he thought.

"get the fuck out here Ray before I knock the stuffing out of you" he shouted loudly suddenly Cobra felt Ray's leg hit him in the shins he winced in pain and dove under finally the girls threw Scorpion into the water to get them in here and he did after swearing at them and earning a couple of brusies from Ray and Cobra who he threw onto the boat. After he got into the boat he walked over too where he sat and sat down soaking wet soon they where rowing onto the beach "what took yer so long?" Hagrid asked them "and why yer soaking wet?" he asked tiredly also as both Cobra, Scorpion and Ray got out drenched while Emily and Harry walked out only a little wet.

"They leaned too far too the side and fell in" Emily said "is that true?" he asked in disbelief they nodded he sighed "alright get in" he said and they walked into the castle soaking wet. "What on earth happened?" a strict solemn looking teacher asked they told the same story. She sighed tiredly "well you can't go in those wet clothes into the great hall come with me" so they followed her down a hall and into a room "I'm afraid I have no more uniforms left you might have too wear just the clothes in your suitcase" she said "okay" they said she left them too get their clothes on girls in one room boys in the other seperate change rooms. When they came out they headed to the great hall. Carol and Sabrina gave them envious looks "heh you guys look so weird" Cobra bragged but shut up after receving a glare from the two they shut up and followed the first years into the room.

They starred at the hat 'a hat that can sing? you learn something new everyday' that went through their heads

"Lion,Collin" the woman called Cobra slowly made his way there while turning red, the hat took a second "GRIFINDOR!" there was an uproar of claps as Cobra made his way over. "Light,Caroline" the witch called again Carol stood up and gave a sudden stiffening motion in the hall.

She sat on the chair and placed the hat on her head "SLYTHERIN" the hat called after what seemed like an hour Carol stood up she saw a few people clap on the green table and saw a snake so she walked over there. Ray suddenly felt nervous what if he was seperated from Emily "Line, Sabrina" the voice called again Sabrina made her way up and sat down it only touched a bit of her hair and shouted "RAVENCLAW" she walked over to the blue table and sat down.

"Michael, Ray" the witch said after she called other students up Ray made his way up he had the joker, prankister look on his face that showed trouble "GRIFFINDOR" the hat said he grinned at the red table and ran over Emma became nervous she was all by herself.

"Hunter,Emma" the voice called immediately she could feel Ray's eyes bareing into her skull as she made her way over she sat down and the hat slid over her eyes. "Well,well let us see plently of courage, strength and wisdom oh my this can't be... ok it will have to be" and it opened his mouth to shout out a name "GRIFFINDOR!" Emily grinned as she ran over to Ray and sat down beside him who was smiling at her.
