The Hogwarts Express had just pulled into King's Cross Station, Rosa and Lily were both curled up, asleep, Lily had her head on Marissa's lap while Rosa had her head on Remus's lap.
Marissa lightly shakes Lily's shoulder. "Lil, it's time to wake up."
Lily wakes up and sits up, stretching.
Remus touches Rosa's shoulder. "Ro?"
Rosa wakes up, looking around, whimpering. "I-It's time to get off?"
Sirius hands Rosa a piece of paper and pats Rosa's head, like and older sibling would. "This has all the ways to contact use."
James grabs his and Rosa's stuff and leads the others off the train and onto Platform 9.
Lily hugs Rosa. "I got to go… I'll see you after break." She then runs off to find her parents.
Sirius pat's Rosa's head and smiles. "See you later, Ro."
"Don't hesitate to get a hold of us, Ro!" James grabs Sirius and drags him away to find their parents.
Marissa hugs Rosa and frowns. "Let's find your aunt." After getting a nod from Rosa, she leads her and Remus to find Sally Jackson.
A woman with long black hair in an updo walks to Severus and Rosa. "Severus."
Severus loks at the woman. "Mother." He then gestures to Rosa, Marissa, and Remus. "These are my friends. Rosalina Smith, Marissa Lupin, and Remus Lupin."
Rosa tilts her head and bites her lip, moving closer to Marissa.
"You must be Mrs. Snape, it's nice to meet you. Severus has told us alot about you." Marissa smiled kindly, wrapping an arm around Rosa's shoulder and placing a hand on Remus's shoulder.
"It's nice to meet you all. You all can call me Eileen." Eileen looks at Rosa, having noticed how she had moved closer to Marissa and how Marissa had wrapped her arm around the younger girl. "Rosalina, I went to school with your mother. Your guardian asked me to take you home, because her son is sick."
Rosa goes wided eyed and moves closer to Eileen, going into a full on panic mode. "What?! Is he ok?! Do you know what he's sick with?!"
Marissa puts a hand on Rosa's head. "Ro' you need to stay calm."
"Mom, will take you to him and then we can worry about that."
Eileen shrinks Severus and Rosa's things, pocketing them, and pulls both Severus and Rosa to her after they said good by to Marissa and Remus. She watches as Marissa and Remus leave to find their own parents, then looks at Rosa. "Have you lived in the same place since Sally took you in?"
Rosa's bites her lip and nods. "Yeah."
Eileen nods and apparates all three of them to the living room of Sally's apartment. "Sally?!"
Sally walks out of Percy and Rosa's room and looks at Eileen, she had a horrible bruise under her right eye. "Thank you, Eileen."
Rosa looks at Sally and bites her lip. "M-Mama, is he home?"
Eileen tilts her head and watched Rosa, wondering what the girl meant.
Sally sighs and closes her eyes. "He's passed out in our room." She then smiles weakly. "Go see your brother."
Rosa nods and runs into the room Sally had walked out of.
Eileen looks down at Severus. "Go keep your friend calm, Severus."
Severus nods and follows Rosa.
Sally smiles at Eileen. "It's been a long time, Eileen. Thank you for bringing Rosalina home and I was thinking of letting Rosa stay with one of her Hogwarts friends, would I be able to have you come get her and take her to the home of which friend she chooses to stay with?"
Eileen smiles and nods. "It has been a long time. And of course you can. How old is your son, Sally?"
"Percy's seven years old and I wonder what house he'll be sorted into when he gets his Hogwarts letter."
"What house do you think he'll be in?"
"I'm not sure, Eileen. He could be sorted into almost all of them. Which house is Severus in."
"He's in Slytherin, just like his mother." Eileen laughs, proud of her son. "What about Rosalina?"
Sally smiles fondly at the question of her adopted daughter's house. "She's a Gryffindor."
Rosa comes out of the room with Severus right behind her. "Mama, Percy's getting worse."
Eileen frowns and looks at Sally. "Where would you like to take him, Sally?"
Sally goes to the kitchen and writes down on a piece of paper. She then goes to Eileen and hands the paper to her. "Take Rosa to this address. I'm taking Percy to St. Mungo's."
Eileen nods and goes to Rosa and Severus, pulling them to her. She then looks at the address before apparating out of the apartment.
