The train station was very crowded but Samantha finally managed to find Hermione. The two girls where wearing almost the exact same outfits. Hermione in low cut jeans and a baby blue shirt with baby blue flip flops, and Samantha in low cut jeans and a army green shirt with army green flip flips. Both girls had little make up on and their hair straightened. The boys of course also found each other and grinned at finally going to school. Somehow all three boys managed to wear the same thing also. Jeans and white shirts with Converse shoes. The girls decided to get on the train as soon as they could to find a compartment for the five of them to share. Along the way though Samantha bumped into somebody.
"Watch where you are going stupid Mudblood!" Draco Malfoy said as he looked Samantha in the eyes.
"Excuse me darling, but I am not a Mudblood, and you will never call anyone that name again because it's just plain rude. Now help me up and say you are sorry." Samantha said as she held her arm up to be pulled up. Instead of Malfoy helping her up though, Hermione did. Draco started walking of smirking but Samantha wasn't about to let being called a Mudblood slide.
"Hey, I don't know where you think you are going but you are going to regret walking away from me when I tell you to say sorry." Samantha stated to Malfoy as she grabbed his arm to turn him around to face her.
A little down the hall of the train where Hermione waited, Samuel came up behind her and asked what was going on.
"Malfoy called her a Mudblood and pushed her down. Samantha's mad 'cus he won't say he is sorry."
"Oo dear, this could take a while. Let's hope she doesn't hit him." Samuel smiled, "Never mind, she probably will."
"Don't touch me you piece of Filth." Malfoy yelled at Samantha.
"Don't you dare call me Filth," Samantha said as she smacked Malfoy across his cheek, "If you ever call me anything like that again I'll punch you. If I ever hear you calling one of my friends anything along those words, I'll punch you. Don't talk that way, it's rude and mean. If I hear it again, I'll punch you."
"You can't tell me what to do." Malfoy argued.
"Yes she can because she is right. You never talk that way to a lady." Samuel said as he blocked Samantha from range of punching Malfoy, "Sammie, just leave it alone and go to the compartment with Hermione."
"Yes 'Sammie' go back to the Mudblood Granger." Malfoy said as Samantha turned to leave. But instead of continuing to walk down the hall, she turned around and Samuel moved out of the way. A loud smack was heard down the train and Malfoy fell to the ground.
"Ouch! That hurt!" Malfoy said as he rubbed his jaw.
"I'll punch you a lot harder next time." Samantha said as she walked away. She turned around quickly though as Malfoy stood up again, "Never call me Sammie ever again either. It's Samantha to you. Only a certain few can call me Sammie." Malfoy's jaw dropped as she once again turned and left. This time she actually went into the compartment. Samuel laughed as Malfoy stood with his jaw hanging open.
"Yea, that's my sister."
"Did you teach her to punch like that?" Malfoy asked in wonder.
"Nope, our dad did. She likes to run in the mornings. Every morning at five. If you got some sense knocked into you just then, you will go and say you are sorry tomorrow morning. If you do it now, she will punch you again." Samuel advised.
"I don't have to apologize to a girl I don't even know."
"Do you want to get punched again?" Samuel asked. He smirked when he saw Malfoy abruptly shake his head no, "Then go tomorrow morning to find her running and apologize." After saying goodbye to Malfoy he left and went into the same compartment that Samantha and Hermione did.
"I can't believe you punched Draco Malfoy, Samantha!" Hermione said is amazement.
Ron and Harry's jaws dropped as Samantha told Hermione that she should stand up for herself. Be confident in who she is and don't ever let men treat her like that.
"Samantha, you don't understand." Hermione looked down at the floor.
Samuel got down on his knees beside Hermione and put his hand under her chin to make her look him in the eyes.
"No Hermione, you don't understand. You are a gorgeous lady and you should be treated like one. Whoever's arms you are in will hold the world in their arms. You deserve to be treated like a Princess Hermione. Nothing less. Don't ever let some Pureblood who worships Moldywart ever tell you differently. They put you down because they know that they can't have you." Samuel told her as he gazed intently in her eyes. Hermione started crying softly at Samuel's words. Harry immediately pushed Samuel away from Hermione and pulled her into a hug.
"Harry, I'm not crying because I'm sad. I'm crying because what Samuel said was beautiful. No one has ever spoken to me like that or told me I looked gorgeous."
"Sorry, I'm just making sure you are okay. What Samuel said was true. Whoever has you in their arms, has the world." Harry said as he let Hermione go of the loving hug.
"I have a feeling that this year is going to be different from any other one guys!" Ron smiled at his group of friends, "Sammie, I'm glad you and Sam are here."
"I am to Ron. I am too." Harry said as he looked at the two new members of the Golden Trio.
"I guess that the Golden Trio isn't really a Trio anymore." Hermione said logically.
All five of the teenagers laughed and talked the rest of the way to the school. When they finally arrived, Dumbledore was waiting for Samantha and Samuel. Hermione whispered to Samantha, "Save you a spot!" as she pushed Samantha towards Dumbledore.
"Now come along Mister and Miss Mitchell. You two are going to be introduced to Hogwarts School before you both are sorted. There are four houses, Gryffendor, Ravenclaw, Huffelpuff, and Slytherin. You both might be in one house, or you both might be in different houses. It all depends on what the Hat says really. The old thing might take awhile, I'm afraid he to is getting quite old," Dumbledore smiled.
Dumbledore led them to stand in front of the Professor's table while he talked to Hogwarts Students, "Ladies and Gentlemen, another year has arrived, and not just another year, but knew students as well. Along with the many first year students, two Sixth year students will be joining us. I would like you all to give them a warm welcome before they get sorted. I am very happy to introduce Samantha and Samuel Mitchell." The hall burst into applause as Samantha and Samuel waved and laughed at each other.
"Well, Samantha, if you would kindly step down to the stool to be the first to get sorted..." Dumbledore said as he pointed to the stool a few feet away.
Samantha sat down onto the stool and the hat was placed on her head. Within a few moments, it yelled out Gryffendor and Samantha jumped up and quickly took a seat next te Hermione. Samuel was next and it took quite a bit longer for the hat to decide where to put him, but after a few moments of silence, it yelled Slytherin.
"What? How could Samuel get put in there!" an upset Harry asked.
"Oo don't be upset Harry, he wanted to get put into Slytherin. He didn't want to be in the same house as I because we are so used to being in different schools. He never would have been put in Ravenclaw, he hates reading a lot, and Huffelpuff is for boring people. Samuel is anything but that. He won't turn bad if that's what you are worried about!" Samantha said to Harry.
"But he is sitting with Malfoy!" He argued.
"That git that I punched? He's probably really nice. He just has a few bugs he has to work out. Sometimes our Dad would talk about the Malfoys. Draco really is mean because it's what his father beat into him. Literally. I volunteered at the Hospital last summer. The poor boy always came in every few days sporting new wounds. He never told us how he got them, but we all knew. Purebloods usually think that they are better then anything in the world. But they are wrong. Malfoy just needs to be able to see that. He needs someone to open up his eyes to the real world. Samuel can probably do that. Sam and I are purebloods, but you didn't know that. We don't act like Malfoy because we were taught better." Samantha explained.
Harry's only reply was, "Malfoy will never change. It's useless to give him the chance. I don't care what you say, he will never be in my good graces."
"If his dad really hurt him, then you did you punch him if you know that?" Hermione asked Samantha.
"Well Malfoy deserved it. I don't like that word and I don't think anyone should be called that. It's wrong and rude. Malfoy's dad may have beat him, but this summer his dad died to. That's why you should give him a chance. Now he can think for himself. Maybe he isn't really evil.
