The ride to the train station was particularly uneventful or it was until Sirius found a stash of chocolate frogs in his trunk. Undoubtedly from Mrs. Potter as James had some too, in no time both boys were hyperactively singing the 99 bottles of beer on the wall song in-between their questions of "Are we therrrrrrrre yet?"

When they got there as Mr. Potter had said he had to leave the boys to go to his office. But much to their dismay they had forgotten what he said about how to reach the platform much after his father had left.

"Well it could be worse," commented Sirius "At least I won't get disowned or anything when I don't get into Slytherin considering I never really got in any" Sirius said smirking.

James laughed at this and tried to look positive "Well we can't be the only wizards here, just listen for any mention of Muggles or anything like that"

Meanwhile Sirius was not paying much attention as he was watching people mysteriously disappear through a thick wall. He dragged James towards it touching the wall cautiously. Nothing happened.

"What are you up to Mr. Black?" James Enquired looking at his friend strangely

Sirius explained what he had seen to James who was now also looking between the wall and Sirius and whether to believe him or to think his friend had finally lost what little remained of his sanity. Loyally James chose to believe him.

"Maybe we have to run through it or something?" James exclaimed looking worried

"Well, what we waiting for?" Sirius said as he backed up "Me and you have some brain cells to spare anyway" He said chuckling

"Well on the count of 3" James said eyeing up the wall as if it was an enemy

"1" Said Sirius

"2" James looked worried now but what was the worst thing a concussion I mean they had their trolleys in front of them.

"3" they shouted together as they ran for it they didn't feel the wall so they kept running until they hit something solid. Two girls.

"OW" he heard the one on the left screech whilst the other one was clutching her ribs.

"We, we are, we're really sorry" James stuttered

"Well watch where your going!" the other one known as Kita said grumpily what a start this was

"Look we said we're sorry, now are you okay?" James asked the girl offering her his hand

She took it and allowed him to help her up. James may not have reached puberty but he could still tell a pretty girl when he saw one.

"I'm James Potter," He said putting on his most charming smile

"Lily Evans" she replied before turning around to see if her friend was okay she saw her and the other boy arguing she couldn't help but laugh

"Well if you watched where you ran!" Kita was half yelling

"WE SAID SORRY SHEESH!" Sirius was yelling back

"I'm not staying around here if you continue to cause a scene" she said looking around "Come on lily" she said tugging her friend away towards the train

"ME! ME! CAUSE A SCENE?" 5 Minutes later Sirius was still complaining about it "Did you see her! We had apologized!"

"Yeah Sirius I think she might have been nervous" said James attempting to calm his friend down.

"No explanation we've got to get her back" Sirius exclaimed, "When we get there"

"Okay whatever you say Sirius" James said daydreaming about the newest broomstick out. He had been so bummed out when he had found out first years could not join the team.

Sirius rolled his eyes pulling James towards the train. They were almost the last

On-board and came to a compartment with only one male figure there reading a book, hiding his face.

"Hey I'm James Potter and this is my friend, Sirius Black is it okay if we sit here?" James asked

The boy looked away from his book to get a better look at them, he had sandy brown hair with misty blue eyes he was extremely pale. James would have guessed he hadn't seen the sun for a very long time.

"Oh yea sure" He Replied smiling "I'm Remus Lupin"

James and Sirius sat across from each other Sirius sitting beside Remus and James on the far side. They both made a successful attempt to talk to him.

"So what house do you want to be in?" James asked joyfully

"Well I was thinking Gryffindor but I wouldn't mind Ravenclaw either, they both sound pretty awesome," He said putting down his book.

"Yeah Ravenclaws okay but Gryffindors the best, did you know the headmaster himself was in that House?" Enquired James

"Really? That's pretty cool," commented Remus "He's a nice fellow the head master I've met him before"

"Really? When was that?"

Remus was about to reply when they heard something crash into their door. Remus, Sirius and James all got their wands out. They only knew a few spells that James father had taught them for defence and a few Sirius would rather never mention nor experience again, but whatever it was sounded pretty big.

Sirius quickly pulled the curtain back wand pointed at the glass. James laughed; Remus held back his laughter but Sirius on the other hands was almost in tears rolling around on the carpet.

The thing that had hit their door was nothing else but a short chubby boy who had tripped over his own feet and had landed ass first against their compartment door, He was neither hideous nor attractive but James made a move to open the compartment door and see if he was okay.

"Hey I'm James Potter and these are my friends Remus Lupin and Sirius Black, are you okay?" he asked offering the boy his hand to help up.

Remus couldn't help but smile he had friends, due to his condition he moved around a lot so people wouldn't get suspicious. He didn't find it easy to make friends he didn't want to get attached. He had friends before, they found out what he was and turned on him, of course they were Muggles so they had their memories altered but Remus's wasn't, He still remembered the pain of the betrayal, the look on their faces before they ran leaving him on the swing in the rain all by himself that was one birthday he wished to never have to remember again. Yet it was his daily nightmare it haunted him, like the plague, like his curse… But these new people James and Sirius they were wizard's maybe they would understand if they found out, but he sure as hell wouldn't tell them, not unless he had too.

Remus's thoughts were interrupted when the boy spoke "Yes I'm fine, Just tripped that's all" he said smiling

"Oh okay well would you like to join us? I see the food trolley coming along and I swear I saw chocolate frogs" James exclaimed looking back at Sirius his head had turned around, like a dog who had sniffed out its Dog food, James half expected him to start panting.

"Oh yeah okay thank you" Peter said climbing into the compartment

"You never did say what your name was," queried Sirius

"Peter, Peter Pettigrew" The boy once again smiled showing his rather large teeth

"Right, well pleasure to meet you" Sirius said turning back to Remus

"How about we get food from the trolley, my shout?" Sirius asked

"And mine" James added smiling

The boys left in search of the trolley whilst Remus and peter began to talk by the end of their discussion Peter had also decided to go for Gryffindor.

When James and Sirius came back their arms packed with lollies and chocolate putting it all on the to empty seats in the middle of them all.

Meanwhile Lily and Kita had met a girl named Jade she had long flowing hair like lily's and Kita's but hers was blonde she at first struck them as ditzy when she had first appeared with her bubblegum in her mouth and her hazel eyes looking for an empty compartment instead she had decided to ask Lily and Kita if she could join them they of course said yes and over the train ride had also gotten very close.

It seemed that Jade had already learnt some magic at a summer camp and by the end of the train ride had discovered that Lily as well as Kita were extremely fast learners and had learnt most of what it took her a week to, especially lily.

By the end of their lessons and talking from the guys (as well as James funny demonstrations on how to ride a broom correctly for Peter) all of them were tired and rejuvenated on chocolate before changing into their robes.
