"I do not own Harry Potter" A/N: This is the sixth year at Hogwarts

Chapter 1: The Journey to Hogwarts

"Lets find a empty compartment" Ron said peering into occupied rooms as the walked along the train.

"Maybe Hermione found a empty compartment and saved it for us" said Harry.

"I found a compartment and Hermione" said Ron as he sat down next to her.

"How was your summer?" asked Hermione after Harry and Ron had both taken a seat. "Horrible like usual." "Luckily, I spent the last week of the summer at Ron's house." "It's too bad you could make it," said Harry.

"I was okay, but mom is upset with Fred and Gorge because they have been at their Joke Shop all summer and hasn't really came back." Ron explained in an upset tone.

"I went to Ireland over the summer" said Hermione after a moment of awkward silence.

"What did you do there?" asked Ron

"Oh nothing much I met a few people but that's basically it" Hermione said while looking out the window trying to hide the grin that was spread across her face. "Two of the people I met are coming to Hogwarts this year but are traveling by floo powder because they couldn't make the train. Their names are Patrick and Erin; they're twins!"

"How old are they?" asked Harry.

"They're our age," said Hermione not surprised that Harry and Ron would want to know everything about them.

Ron especially interested in this Erin girl and asked what her interests were and if she was nice. "What house will they be in?" asked Ron wonderingly.

"We don't know they have to be sorted" Hermione said.

"But they're sixth years haven't they already been sorted?" questioned Harry after this remark.

"They don't have houses at the schools in Ireland" said Hermione "didn't you know that?"

"We'd better put on our robes we'll be there shortly" said Ron.
