As Marisa reached the train; she felt butterflies in her stomach at the number of other children getting on. Mima seeing marisa's worried expression rubbed her hair gently as she spoke calmly to the worried child. "It will be alright Marisa, plus you are going to miss your train and as a side effect school. Just… make some friends, don't try to upstage them too much and listen to your teachers… mostly; and most important of all be yourself."
Marisa pumped herself up as she nodded towards the vengeful spirit. "Yes! Thanks Mo- i mean Miss. Mima bye!" Marisa's face was beat red as she rushed off towards the train with her corvus and a single suitcase while waving. The vengeful spirit chuckled as a girl wearing what could be considered medieval clothing dashed behind the red head onto the train.
The train whistle blared as the engine started to move. Marisa could feel the corvus on her shoulder acting threatened at the sight of various owls in cages in various compartments with other witches and wizards. After petting the crow to calm it down somewhat she was able to find a empty compartment and was sitting by the window as she was quite giddy and worried about the mechanical machine a blonde haired girl came into the compartment as she sat down right across from Marisa. "Hello, my name is Alice what is yours?" the young girl held out a hand for the young witch to shake.
A few seconds pass before Marisa shakes the hand quite vigorously. "The name is Marisa Kirisame!"
Alice's eyes widened at the name before laughing. "That's a pretty bird." Alice said as she and the bird stared at one other.
"Thanks, Miss Mima got her for me." Marisa replied quite cheerfully as some other children entered the compartment.
As Marisa looked at the various others she could feel herself want to hide as she wasn't sure how she felt about others in europe yet.
"What are all your names? Mine is Marisa Kirisame." Marisa said as she was bouncing up and down slightly in her seat.
"Harry… Harry Potter." the disheveled boy spoke somewhat quietly as he held onto the cage with a owl who was staring at the crow quite aggressively."
"Ron Weasley… wait your Marisa Kirisame?" the boy asked in interest at the small girl.
"The name is Hermione granger, it's nice to meet you." Marisa could tell the girl had a sort of bossy tone to her voice that she didn't exactly appreciate
Marisa looked confused as Ron continued to speak. "The Kirisame family was considered dead, so how did you survive?"
"Oh uh, my aunt lives in Japan and when it got too dangerous for me to stay here so my parents sent me to Japan till the danger blew over; and they sadly died so since my Aunt was my guardian and i just stayed around in Japan." Marisa recalled the story Mima said for Marisa to say when she was questioned about her recent return to Europe.
This seemed to keep any questioning minds for right now pleased; as a woman walked past the five's compartment. "Any thing from the trolley?" the woman asked sweetly as she looked at them all.
Marisa looked at the various snacks as she picked up some chocolate and looked it over not exactly sure what she was looking at. "Cho… co… late?" after shrugging and paying the trolly lady she sat back down and after unwrapping the frog she bit into it tasting the extremely sweet chocolate and reacting pretty extremely.
"Why is it so sweet?!" Marisa whined as she made a face. The others looked at her with a odd look as they somewhat chuckled at her.
"It's not sweet?" Ron replied as he looked over the card he got. "So Marisa, what is life like in Japan? I hear they got there own school for magic so it's a bit odd that you would have traveled all the way here especially with your families reputation being considered insane due to Mima Kirisame."
Marisa grew red faced as she spoke in defense of her master. "Mima, wasn't insane she's a great… i mean she used to be a great teacher to her children."
Ron shook his head. "It's common knowledge that she went pretty much bonkers at the last years of her life and was a major danger to everyone around her."
"I mean it is in the books, Marisa. What is your Aunt even teaching you?" Hermione spoke with a confidence that Marisa lacked.
Marisa let the topic drop as even she knew that her life in Gensokyo would be considered insanity. "Know what, let's just drop the subject." She mumbled this as she relented stubbornly.
"So, do you know what house you are going to be put in?" Hermoine spoke after a few moments trying to get the conversation going again.
"House?" the red headed witch spoke confused. "Like buildings?"
"No, Hogwarts has four houses that the school puts the students into. Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor, and Ravenclaw." Hermoine said swiftly as she mused a bit before speaking some more. "I'd like to be in Gryffindor i hear Dumbledore was in it when he went to Hogwarts."
Marisa turned her head to the window as she drummed her fingers on the glass. Soon the door to the compartment opened as three others entered. One that looked incredibly pale and was flanked on both sides by two large and mean looking boys who looked frankly like bodyguards.
"So it's true that Harry Potter is in this compartment; all up and down the train the word says he is in this compartment. So it's you?" the pale looking boy stared at Harry before taking a look at the various others in the compartment and locking eyes with the odd looking witch.
"I didn't realize the weasleys had an child no one knew about, must be illegitimate." the pale looking boy chuckled as Marisa got up looking angry before sitting back down clenching her hands into fists to a point her knuckles started to turn white as she ground at her teeth.
"You'd do well Harry Potter to not interact with certain wizard families." the pale boy spoke. "Also my name is Draco Malfoy. Come see me when you have a chance." Malfoy walked out of the compartment with the two others right behind chuckleing at Draco's words.
"Marisa, don't do anything too rash." Alice said as she held the doll as a voice was heard throughout the entire train.
"We will be arriving at hogwarts in five minutes ' time. Please leave your luggage as it will be taken to the school on it's own." The voice ended as Marisa sighed and tapped her clothing as it changed to the hogwarts clothing at the suprise and amazement of the others.
"What? My aunt taught me how to do this my purple robes are in the suitcase, here take a look." Marisa grabbed her suitcase and opened it up to show low and behold that indeed there was her other robes and her hat. Marisa smirked as she put on the other hat before getting up and heading out to get off the train as quick as possible. "I'll see you later maybe."
The cold night air hit her and caused her to slightly shiver if not for her enjoyment of the the night sky and all it's knowledge it held. Then a loud booming voice could be heard as a large man spoke. "Firs' years! Firs' years over here! All right there, Harry?"
After a few moments the man spoke once more. "C'mon, follow me. Any more firs' years? Mind yer step, now!" Marisa tuned out the man speaking as she walked in silence. Soon enough everyone could see up on top a tall mountain was a castle, it's turrets and towers piercing the sky with the many windows lit up with the starry night sky. Closer to the students and Hagrid was a fleet of boats.
As the stardust witch entered the boat she sat down. She looked towards the massive man who looked at the many first years before coughing slightly. "Everyone sat down?" after a few seconds and a quick check to make sure everyone was sat down he nodded to himself before smileing. "Alright then FORWARD!" his voice bellowed as the little boats lurched forward across the water towards the castle in the distance.
Minutes passed as they reached a cliff and soon everyone ducked their heads to avoid various rocks and ivy. Soon enough they reached an underground harbor and quickly enough everyone got out and started to head out through a passageway only to exit a little ways away from the large oak doors that served as the castles first line of defense. Hagrid raised a humongous fist and knocked a few times before the castle doors opened likely due to magic.
Alright you all deserve some information on why this hasn't been updated in about a couple of months. Part of the reason was School needed my attention more and the other was that for the last few chapters i could wing it with posting marisa doing her thing. This chapter however i couldn't since i frankly haven't read the book in a long time forcing me to wait for a copy to become available to check out at the library. Hopefully this chapter makes up for the long wait.
