Harry followed behind the group with his eyes cast downward. He saw something glittering beside the carriages. "I'll catch up with you guys." said Harry. The group left Harry and saved him a seat in the carriage. Harry walked towards the glittering unknown object. He bent down and reached his hand forward. He grasped the object, shoved it into his pocket and went into the carriage.

"What's up mate?" asked Ron with concern.

"Nothing." replied Harry, "You wouldn't understand, because know one understands my burden."

"I do!" chipped in Ginny, "I was possessed by you-know-who"

"It's Voldemort." stated Hermione sharply.

Ron winced and shouted "Where?"

Hermione laughed, "No where, Ron. I was correcting your sister."

"Why?" asked Ginny looking hurt.

"Because, we can't fear Voldemorts' name," Hermione said in her matter of factually, "Right Harry?"

Ron and Ginny winced at the name. Luna stared into space.

"Right." said Harry, nodding in agreement.

The carriage arrived at Hogwarts in a matter of minutes. Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny and Luna climbed out of the carriage and entered the Hogwarts.

"I wonder who's going to teach Transfiguration, now that McGonagall is headmistress." Hermione stated.

"I don't know, Umbridge?" said Luna staring dreamily at Ron.

Hermione stared at Luna with anger.

As they walked towards the Great Hall all that could be heard were whistles and catcalls all aimed at Harry, "I wonder why they are whistling and complementing me?" asked Harry.

Hermione rolled her eyes, "Because you're even more fanciable then last year."

Harry blushed. Hermione blushed. Ron and Ginny scowled while Luna stared in space.

They entered the Great Hall; it was emptier then the past years, generally because after last year parents were afraid to send their children to Hogwarts. Luna separated from the group and sat with the Ravenclaws. Ron took Hermione's hand, and Ginny took Harry's hand. They found their seats and sat together. Harry's other hand was in his pocket fingering the object he selected from the ground.
