A lady wearing a robe pushed a cart by Gon and Killua's compartment.

"Anything off the cart, dears?" She said, smiling gently. The two of them blinked at the cart full of candies.

"Eh?" Gon replied intelligently.

"Alright! It's food!' Killua exclaimed while a cat-like grin spread across his face. Gon blinked in dismay as his new friend's calm façade had broken down. He laughed as Killua began attacking the cart and he joined the white-haired boy in his plunder.

-A while later-

"Wow...I wonder what all of this tastes like?" Gon said happily, his eyes gleaming at the treats they had bought. They had bought a little bit of everything, since both of them had been introduced to the wizarding world fairly late and had no idea what it was like. Killua ripped open a Chocolate frog and it leapt from the wrapper onto the empty seat beside him.

The two boys stared at it, dumfounded.

"Killua! Killua! Did you see that?" Gon said, pointing his finger at the chocolate (it was currently slamming itself into the compartment door). Killua stared at the chocolate frog questioningly.

"Is that a real frog?" Gon asked his companion. Killua shrugged.

"There's only one way to find out..." He grinned and stretched out his fingers. Gon blinked in dismay again as he watched his friends' nails grow longer and sharper. He decided that there was much more to his companion than just being a mere white-haired assassin.

Killua stabbed the chocolate frog with his hand. A moment of silence passed between all three of them.

The frog jumped away and started banging itself against the compartment door again.

"Well, that proves it." Killua said smiling as his hand returned to normal, "It's still moving so it's not a real frog." He picked up the frog and took a bite of its head.

"Ne Killua?"

"Hmm?" Killua looked up at his friend sitting across from him.

"Are you a cat?"

Killua stopped chewing and stared at his friend, puzzled by the question.

"Am I a cat?"

His brown-eyed friend nodded patiently.

"Why do you ask a question like that?"

"Well...the way your fingers grew like that...like a cat!" Gon said.

"Hmm...I guess you have a point there..." They blinked at each other and then laughed.

"So...what about this..." Killua said, pointing at a box, "Says here, 'Bertie Bott's Every Flavored Beans'. Wanna give it a go?"

Gon sniffed at it.

"Smells strange."

"Really?" Killua sniffed at the box, "I don't smell anything weird." They both shrugged and took a piece from the jelly beans.

"Here goes nothing." Killua said, throwing the bean into his mouth. Gon nibbled at his. They chewed in silence for a while, and then stared at each other in shock.

"Blech!"

"Yuck!"

"Aww...that was just plain disgusting!" Killua said as he spit the jelly bean out. Gon laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"You should've seen the look on your face!" Gon laughed loudly.

"Well at least someone's enjoying it..." Killua grumbled to himself.

A blond-haired person strode into their compartment at that second. He glanced at everything in the compartment with his sharp blue eyes. Gon stared at the stranger in awe. He gave off an aura of superiority and calmness that Gon had never seen before. Killua studied the stranger cautiously and turned to look out the window.

"Umm..." Gon said innocently, "Can we help you?" The blond-haired boy smiled at Gon.

"No, I was just checking up on all the students."

"Ah...I see."

"We will be arriving at Hogwarts soon. So I suggest you two to start changing into your robes. It was nice meeting you...er?"

"Gon. Gon Freecs. And you are?"

"Kurapica. It was nice meeting you, Gon, and umm..." the blue eyes shifted to look at the boy staring out the window, "and your friend here." And with that he left the compartment. Killua turned to his friend.

"Well...I guess we should change?"

Gon nodded.

A few minutes later, the train chugged into a long platform. It whistled, signaling its arrival at Hogwarts.

Killua yawned widely as he stepped off the train, followed by Gon.

"Ah! We're here!" Gon said jumping happily.

"Hai hai...calm down," Killua said putting an arm around Gon's shoulder, "It's not that exciting is it?"

"Hey, Killua?"

"Hmm? What?"

"Who's that?" Gon said pointing to a gigantic person who was directing students to carriages and boats.

"Mmm...I dunno..."

"Firs' years! All firs' years over here!" Gon and Killua looked at each other.

"Race you to him!" Killua shouted and sprinted towards the figure towering over the students.

"Hey! No fair! You got a head start!" Gon yelled and ran after him.

Killua looked behind his shoulder to see his friend a distance away from him. Suddenly, a tall brown-haired man holding a small briefcase walked into Killua's path.The boyhad squashed him flat in a flash. The briefcaseflew through the air, spilling the contents, which consisted mostly of medical supplies.

"Sorry!" He yelled back, though not really feeling sorry at all.

Gon sprinted after Killua, amazed at how fast his friend was. The man Killua had squashed was getting up and was cursing the energy and inhumane strength first years had. Gon ran right into him and sent him sprawling to the ground again. Gon had tripped over and landed on his face.

"I-tai!" Gon exclaimed as he massaged his nose. He blinked at the man groaning in front of him. The man glared angrily at Gon, while he stared back with innocent brown eyes.

"I'm sorry! Are you ok?" Gon asked in a worried tone. The man growled at him.

"Don't think I'm falling for that innocent act, you stupid first years." The man looked vicious and threatening by now, "I know what all of you're hiding...trying to act all cute and harmless..."

Gon drew back cautiously. Many beads of sweat rolled down his face. Was this man ok?

"Yes...I know what you're up to. All you mischievous, up-to-no-good, first years! I'll get all of you once and for all! One day...you just wait..." The man cackled evilly at the sky.

But by the time the man had finished, Gon had left, anxiously looking for Killua. He spotted his friend waving at him from a boat floating on the moat surrounding the Hogwarts castle. He let out a sigh of relief.

"Why'd you take so long?" Killua said, smiling happily while chewing on a Licorice Wand left from their stash of treats.

"A man was really angry that I tripped over him." Gon said.

"Gon, you have to watch where you're goin', you know?" Killua sighed, patting Gon on the shoulder. Gon nodded obediently.

The giant man was now sitting in one of the boats and most of the boats were full to the brim with students.

"No more'n four to a boat!" The man called out to the students gathering around the shoreline. Gon and Killua watched as a girl and a boy entered their boat.

"All right there. Everyone in?" The man shouted from a boat he was sitting in by himself, "Right then — LET'S GO!"

Gon stared at the castle in awe as it came closer and the fog cleared away from his view.

"It's amazing!" Gon exclaimed, his eyes sparkling in excitement. Killua shrugged.

"It's nothing compared to my house." Gon's eyes grew wider as he turned to look at the assasin.

"You live in a place better than this?"

Killua nodded.

"Wah...that's incredible."

"It's...not that exciting," Killua blushed from embarrassment, "It's just...where I live..."

"But if it's better than Hogwarts then—"

"Stop it. You're really pathetic you know?" Killua said.

"Oh. Really?"

The two of them were drifting closer to the school. It had a dark, medieval look to it, but all the while it was striking a majestic feeling into every observer. With its windows sparkling against the starry sky and towers reaching towards the moon. This was Hogwarts, Gon's new home for a year. And of course, his friend, Killua, and many others, would accompany him.
