Author's Note: I really would appreciate some reviews…

The alarm buzzed and Minnie bolted up from her bed. She disappeared into her bathroom and after a few minutes appeared again. She whistled happily and opened her closet.

"Hee Hee… I'm going to Hogwarts today! Yippee Now what should I wear," Minnie hummed. She finally decided on a plain white shirt with a ruffled collar and a plaited black mini skirt. From what Jean had told her, they had to change in the train, so simple wouldn't hurt.

The whole family buzzed around the house grabbing bites to eat and doing some last-minute packing. Finally they all filed into the family van and left for King's Cross.

"Why the house is gonna be so empty with you gone Minnie dear!" Periwinkle exclaimed and pecked her daughter quickly on the cheek. "Be a good girl and listen to your brother okay? Although I'm sure you won't." Periwinkle winked. Minnie grinned but her stomach was giving her some trouble so it was more like a half-grin.

Minnie and Wayne strolled into the wall first. Periwinkle said it would be the last daughter-and-father time for a long time.

"Minnie, I want you to post lots of owls home okay? Jean never does." Wayne pouted.

"Dad, I might not even have time!" Minnie giggled.

"Oh all right. BUT. You send some mail on holidays okay pumpkin?" he remarked.

"Fine Dad. Don't worry." Minnie smiled at her worried father.

Finally Minnie and Jean were in a compartment and was ready to go. The train started to move and speeded up. The four people waved until they lost sight of each other.

"Well bro, what are we gonna do?" Minnie remarked to her brother.

Jean shrugged. "You wanna look around the train and meet some new people? We have lots of time till we reach Hogwarts."

Minnie looked worriedly at their luggage. Jean caught her glance and grinned. "Don't worry, I'll put on a MagixLock on it. What password do you want to use?" (MagixLock is a special lock that opens up with the special word. It's voice-coded. Also it identifies wands. Passwords are usually in latin. But it doesn't matter.)

Jean and Minnie voice-activated the lock and identified their wands (Jean- ebony and unicorn hair, Minnie- mahogany and phoenix feather). They decided to use Amici Thogwars as the password. A mixture of Latin and Pig Latin.

"Well then, I'll be off to visit my friends. Look around okay? Oh and try some treats from the cart." Jean mentioned as he wandered off.

Minnie hesitantly looked at the compartment door, then determinedly walked down the aisle. She bumped into a black haired girl along the way.

"Oh I'm so sorry!"

"No it's okay. It's my fault too." The black-haired girl paused then looked up at Minnie with her dark brown eyes and smiled.

"What's you're name? I'm Holly Kim. First-year."

"Hi! My name's Minnie Ross and I'm a first-year too! I'm wandering around the aisle looking for some nice people."

"Funny way how you do it. I'll come with you." Holly grinned. The two wandered up and down the train when suddenly a compartment door slammed open in front of them. A boy with jet-black hair walked out and blinked at them and cocked his head sideways.

"Uh hi?" Holly muttered.

"Hey! James Potter, first-year. You two babes are?" James grinned good-naturedly at them.

"Minnie Ross and this- is Holly Kim. We're both first-years," Minnie answered.

"Cool. Hey Sirius! Remus! Where's Pete-? Oh there you are. These two are Minnie and Holly. They say they're both first-years." James pushed the two girls into his compartment.

"Hey! Remus Lupin's da name," Remus winked and gave a mock bow to Minnie and Holly. He gazed at Holly intently.

Another black-haired boy picked off a magazine from his face and glanced lazily at Minnie and Holly. His look went back to Minnie and he saluted.

"Sirius. Sirius Black."

Minnie looked at him and caught his eyes. He winked lazily at her. For some reason this caused Minnie to blush.

"Sit down Minnie. Sit down Holly. I'm gonna try to bring Lily in here…. Maybe she'll trust me if she sees girls in here.

"Oh no we have to," Minnie and Holly both exclaimed. "STAY put." They sat back down. In a few minutes, James returned with a pretty girl. Minnie smiled warmly at her.

"Hi my name's Holluy. I bet you're Lily. Now Remus, Sirius, and James, we'll be back to Minnie's compartment now. You wanna come?" Holly shot the question towards Lily.

"SURE THING. I'd love to get away from here." The girls linked arms and walked off.

The boys stared after them and glanced at eachother.

"Those girls weren't much help." James remarked.

"But I like that Minnie figure." Sirius shot back.

"Holly seems like a very reasonable girl." Remus stated.

MEANWHILE…

"So, you are Lily right?" Minnie exclaimed.

"Yup. Lily Evans is me! This is my first year going to Hogwarts… If it weren't for those pesky rats, I'm in heaven right now."

"I don't know. That Sirius guy seems good. And Holly here seems to catch Remus' eyes." Holly jumped at Minnie's mention of her. "This is my compartment. Amici Thogwars. Come in!" Minnie sat down. Lily and Holly copied her and they were all soon talking about boys, clothes, celebrities, and Hogwarts. When a lady came with a cart, they purchased bunches of pastries and candies and stuffed themselves. Finally the 5 minutes bell rang and they hurriedly changed into their robes. (Thankfully, Fyora went out by the compartment window and sent a message to bring Lily and Holly's trunks to Minnie's compartment). The trio complimented on the robes and soon were out the train and on a platform. Nearby they saw a glooming castle.

"That's Hogwarts." Was being muttered all over the platform.

The girls had finally reached Hogwarts.
