Chapter 1
The train ride
It was a long summer's day and Crystal had just begun packing her bags for the long trip ahead when her father walked into her room and asked whether she was done packing or not. Crystal has never been to Hogwarts Castle, the school which all young witches attend in order to learn magic and qualify as a witch. Later that afternoon she arrived at the train station ready to depart...
"Oh my word this train is so small." Said Crystal in a state of shock.
"Yes Crystal, this is only for students whom attend that school, you better hurry up your train's about to leave so I'll get going, and remember that your coach is number four, good luck honey." Said Crystal's father as he kissed her on her cheek.
Crystal's father stood in the distance and waved goodbye as the train pulled away.
Crystal made her way to coach number four which was still empty and made herself comfortable when suddenly a chubby short girl made her way into the coach, she had a fur leather jacket, diamond rings and gold chains around her neck.
"I just can't believe that I'm traveling in a dump like this, I demand better quality." Said the large chubby girl who was pulling her face like a bulldogs which gave her the impression that she was ready to attack any one.
"Hi." Said Crystal in a quivering voice.
"Hi, my name is Misty what's yours?" Said Misty now with a sweet soft voice.
"My name's Crystal, I live in Princeton." Said Crystal in a relieved tone.
They began talking about their life's story's when a young boy walked in. "Hello ladies, the name's Leo." Said the boy in a gentle tone.
"Hi." Said the pair when they began to giggle from something they had said before. Crystal and Misty introduced their selves when Leo sat down. Moments had gone by in silence when Misty cupped her hands over Crystal's ear and begun whispering in it.
"His cute don't you think." Said Misty softly.
Crystal made a sudden movement and looked at Misty in surprise.
"What, did I say something wrong?" Said Misty.
Crystal just shook her head and then burst out laughing.
"What are you laughing for?" Asked Misty.
"Nothing, I was just thinking that you don't waist time do you." Said Crystal clearly. They both began to laugh, while Leo was looking at them quite shocked and puzzled.
Hours passed in silence when suddenly Crystal stood up and made her way to the door in the coach.
"Where are you going?" Asked Misty suddenly awoken by the sound of foot steps.
"I'm going to take a walk, see you later." Said Crystal opening the door and stepping out shutting it behind her.
She made her way along the passages of the train and found a tall boy with black hair which had a tint of electric blue sitting alone in a coach which looked quite dark and creepy.
"Hi." Said Crystal as she opened the door of the coach.
"Hi." Said the boy with his eyes closed as though ignoring her presence.
"My name's Crystal, what's yours?" Asked Crystal determined not to give up.
"Gareth, Gareth Ice." He said opening his eyes slowly.
"So what are you doing here all by yourself?" Asked Crystal trying to be friendly.
"I don't like being around other people." Said Gareth coldly.
"Why." Crystal asked looking rather scared.
"Because they often end up hurt, or even dead, I suppose that's why my mom sent me here." Said Gareth looking ready to cry.
"How!" Asked Crystal in a slightly shaken voice.
"I have star born powers, which means I don't need a wand, but they are limited." Answered Gareth shacking.
"Oh, is that all, I also have star born powers but I've learnt to control them already." Said Crystal relieved.
Gareth looked rather shocked; he has never met another legendary star born.
"You're also a star born; I thought that there was only one." Said Gareth in a surprised voice.
"No, according to the legend there are three, which will combine their full strength to obtain a crystal which possesses the power to stop the world from ending, strange; if I wasn't a star born I wouldn't have believed it. So what kind of powers do you have?" She asked after expressing her wisdom.
"Well, I can fly, frieze any thing and control the energy forces." Said Gareth looking a bit more lively.
"Wow, you can control the energy forces, that means the legend is true, there is a forth." Said Crystal shocked.
"Forth, but you just said there was only three, and so what if I can control the energy forces." Stated Gareth.
"Yes, there are supposed to be three but a forth might be born which will have the power of the crystal and bring life to the world when it's about to end." Said Crystal staring into Gareth's eyes.
Gareth looked even more shocked than he had ever been; he stood up and began to walk up and down the coach.
"Don't worry, the legend also says that you won't be able to use this power until you have discovered the truth." Said Crystal trying to cheer him up.
"The truth about what?" Gareth asked.
"I don't know, I think if the legend knew the truth then they wouldn't need the three star borns." Suggested Crystal.
Silence fell after she made this comment which seemed to shake Gareth up even more. "Hay, you haven't told me what powers you have." Said Gareth trying to suppress the nervous atmosphere.
"Oh, I have the powers of the mind and I can also create force fields, things like that." She said looking godly.
"Cool, can you maybe teach me how to control my powers." Asked Gareth.
"Sure, no problem. Why don't you come and sit with me and my other friends in my coach, and don't worry if any thing happens I will be able to protect them." Said Crystal reassuring him.
They both stood up and made for the door and walked down the passages and into coach number four.
"Hay Misty, this is Gareth Ice." Said Crystal introducing Gareth to the rest of them.
"Hi." Said Gareth as he sat next down next to Leo who was fast asleep.
The train stopped dead in its tracks which made Misty and Crystal knock there heads and caused Leo and Gareth to fly across to the other end of the coach but luckily Gareth managed to stop himself in mid air.
"What the, you can, fly!" Said Misty who began to shack with fear.
"Don't panic, he's a star born and so am I." Said Crystal recovering from her bruised head. "His, your, your both star borns?" Asked Misty very confused.
"Yes we are." Said Gareth returning to the surface of the coach.
"But if both of you are star borns then that means that the triangle is complete because I'm also a star born." Stated Misty who was standing up.
"No this can't be, because I'm also a star born." Said Leo who was still upside down. They looked at each other but Crystal knew the answer so she decided to share her knowledge.
"It could be quite possible that all four of us are star borns as the legend does state that there could be a fourth which can control the energy forces, and that person is Gareth." Said Crystal.
They all looked at Gareth who was going slightly red in the cheeks from all the attention.
"Will someone please explain what's going on here?" Said Misty.
"Well I'm guessing that someone wanted us to all come to the same coach for a reason but why would they leave Gareth out." Said Crystal wondering.
"Well what powers do you have?" Asked Leo looking at Crystal.
"I have mind powers, and I can create force fields, what about you." Asked Crystal.
"I can become invisible and throw electric balls, and you?" Asked Leo looking at Misty. "Well, I can control fire and see through objects." Said Misty. Suddenly both two boys had their hand over their pants.
"What about you Gareth?" Asked Leo.
"I have the ability to fly, to frieze objects and control the energy forces." Said Gareth. When he said those last words all three of them looked rather scared.
"Well, now that we are all properly introduced can someone please find out why we have stopped?" Said Misty.
"Well I already know this, it's because we are picking up students at the half-way mark, and it's another stop you see." Stated Crystal.
They all sat down on their seat when soon after the train began to move again.
"I wonder why they, who ever it is, wanted us to meet in the same coach." Said Crystal. "I think they tried to get us to know each other so we will work better as a team." Suggested Leo.
Silence fell again for hours while the train was moving.
After hours had gone by Crystal woke up and noticed that everyone else were still sleeping when suddenly a student with white blond hair walked in.
"Ah, so the killer sits in this coach." Said the boy facing Gareth.
Just then the others awoke from the sound of his voice.
"What do you want here Malfoy." Asked Gareth in a cold voice.
"I was just looking for the school killer, so I can save the lives of these innocent people." Said Malfoy sarcastically.
"Oh stop trying to be the hero, you're not very good at that, and these students can take care of themselves." Shouted Gareth.
Gareth's face was becoming redder, and his temperature was rising then all of a sudden golden light was coming out of him and forming a wand with a very sharp point to it. Crystal stood up raised her hand to Gareth's shoulder and calmed him down, while Malfoy's face had become whiter than his hair.
"I'll be back Ice, you won't get off this easy again." Said Malfoy.
"Shame, is the little scared boy going to get some reinforcements." Said Misty with a baby voice.
With that Malfoy stormed out of the coach and made his way down the passages.
"Was that the energy forces?" Asked Leo looking at Gareth.
"Yes, but it was the first time I was able to control it. Crystal, how did you manage to calm me down like that?" Asked Gareth now facing Crystal.
"Well I did say that I had mind powers, I think that answers your question." Stated Crystal.
"Who was that boy any way?" Asked Misty.
"His one of the worst trouble makers ever but he can only use the wand, so that's why his so scared of me." Said Gareth.
They all took their seats once again when silence fell once more.
They had now traveled more than three quarter of the distance to the school when a voice sounded through the intercom.
"Attention all students, attention all students would Crystal Cowell, Leo Blain, Misty Coetzee and Gareth Ice please make their way to coach thirty, thank you." Said the voice on the intercom.
They looked at each other and knew now that Crystal must have been right about them been put together. They all stood up and made for the door and through the passage until they reached coach thirty.
"Well are you going to go in or not?" Said Misty to Crystal, who was in the front of her. Crystal opened the door and entered with the others following behind her to see a young man with brown hair sitting near the window.
"Hi, there was an announcement that we were to come here." Said Crystal in a professional tone.
The man turned his head towards them.
"Yes, welcome, please sit down we have much to talk about. My name is Professor Lupin; I hope by now you are all acquainted and that you know what I want of you." Said Lupin.
"Yes we are acquainted but we have no idea what you want of us." Said Crystal.
"My goal was to get the four star borns acquainted so they could perhaps become a team, because according to legend you are the one's who will save the world. In our school we do have houses like most others schools, hopefully you'll be in the same house, so by you four joining force you might be the ones to stop Voldemort and save Harry." Said Lupin.
"Who's Voldemort, why us?" Asked Leo.
"Well, according or a prophecy, Voldemort and Harry Potter are connected. In order to kill Voldemort, Harry must also die. According to legend, the star borns are able to change fate and correct the wrongs." Said Lupin.
Horrified by the news Gareth said at once.
"We'll help you, but I'm sure I'm not the only one that needs to be trained up a little." Stated Gareth.
"Good. I'll need you to al join the DA; make sure you stay close to Harry. You may go back to your coach now that is all I wished to say." Said Lupin.
With his last goodbye the four made their way back to their own coach.
Hours went by once more until Leo stood up to state that he could see the school.
"Hay we're almost there, we better got ready." Said Leo.
They got ready collecting their bags, books and other equipment and waited for the train to stop. After about five minutes the train came to a halt to give way to the castle.
"We're here, grab your things and let's go." Shouted Misty in a voice of excitement.
They made their way off the train and onto the platform which had a large sign in front asking for students to make their way to the waters edge in the far left. The four of them made their way to the waters edge, another sign was on a post which said. 'Please make your way to one of the boats, a maximum of five in each boat.' They climbed in and were whisked away towards the castle.
