Ecko walks through the hall of the train looking into the compartments. Being in her first year of Hogwarts, naturally there was no place for her to sit.

Nearing the end of the train, her hand gripped tightly around her cream coloured backpack, filled with things to do on the way to Hogwarts. She finally spots seat in a compartment, with three guys in it. Two looked identical with coal black hair but the only difference was their eyes, they were obviously twins, while the other had bright blue hair and soft brown eyes.

One twin with a deep brown coloured eyes was laughing at what his twin said, looks up at the door the moment Ecko stopped. Gathering all the courage she has, she pulls her red hair over one shoulder as she walks up to the door and opens it.

"Hey, everywhere else is full I'm going to sit here, Okay?" She says. Looking only at the brown eyed twin.

"Fine by me" he says smirking while ruffling his already messy hair. "I'm James Potter, or otherwise known as the better looking twin. This is Remus" he says nodding to his twin " and that there is Teddy Lupin."

Teddy looks up from the card game he is playing with Remus and smiles at her "We haven't even gotten to Hogwarts yet and you are already flirting James? Leave the poor girl alone." He turns to Ecko and asks.

"What's your name?"

"Ecko" she says while plopping down onto the blue-grey seats throwing her bag onto the floor.

"What's echoing?" James says a cute confused look on his face. Wait, cute?

"No idiot, my name is Ecko. Ecko Scylla"

"Wait, I've heard of you." Remus says, saying the first since she entered the compartment. "Aren't you a squib?"

"Squib?" James says confused

"No, I was just raised by squibs. My dad died before I was born and my mum died giving birth to me" she says in a nonchalant tone, ignoring James' question

"Wait, what the hell is a squib?" James says frustrated.

"Oh, sorry." Remus says. "Didn't mean to be rude". Remus finally paying attention to his brother flailing his arms in annoyance. "It means a non-magic person born to a magic family, James. If you paid attention to any of mum and dad's conversations YOU would know that." He says annoyed, finally acknowledging his brothers question.

"Why would I pay attention to mum and dad's conversation. It's normally about work and it's boring" he whines, dragging out the word boring.

"Actually it is quite intellectual and interesting. Wait, you wouldn't understand what intellectual means." Remus shot back.

"Break it up you two" Teddy says. Massaging his temples. "Why do you always have to be fighting? Can't you please play nice for once"

"Yes, Teddy" they mumble looking down ashamed.

Ecko sits in the corner watching the exchange with small smile on her face.

"So... what houses do you guys think you will be in?" Ecko asks with a cheery tone.

Outside the compartment Analla was walking to find a compartment that had a free space. When looking in the next compartment to see if there was any space, she felts someone trip over her leg and looked to her right to see a girl fallen over with many books surrounding her.

"Oh- ah- oh I'm so so so so-rry" Analla stutters, bending down to help the girl pick up her stuff.

"Oh don't worry about it. I'm just really clumsy." The girl laughs "

"My names Emilia Rose. What's yours?" Emilia asks standing up with half the books that had fallen on the floor. Analla instantly feeling a sense of warmth with Emilia smiles and says

"I'm Analla. Analla Jemstone" placing the other half of the books that Emilia had dropped on the pile that she held. Analla was surprised to see that the books that Emilia had piled up above her line of vision and she realized it was probably what caused her to fall.

"Um- hey, my dad taught me this ah-spell called the undetectable extension charm I- ahh think it was called that.. But I could do it to your bag, to that you could fit your-ahh books in there? Only if you want to I mean-ahh, I'm rambling again I always do that, ramble when I am nervous and ah-"

"Could you please? That was the 3rd time I have tripped on someone, and the other two were not very happy about it." Emilia says cutting Analla off before she could ramble anymore.

"S-sure" Analla gives a small smile and puts her hand out for Emilia to put her bag in so she could do the charm. Emilia passes her small navy bag with pink and white flowers, to Analla.

"Capacious extremis" she mumbles and flicks her wand. Analla smiles and says.

"I think it worked? Try it." Analla says urging her to try it, excited to see if the charm worked. Emilia opens her bag and tries to put the first of her many books in. The book slides in like it had been empty the whole time. Emilia smiles and puts the rest of the books in the bag. After putting her books away, she turns to Analla and jumps onto her to give her a hug.

"Thank you" Emilia says still hugging Analla. Analla not knowing what to do awkwardly hugs back and mumbles.

"You're very welcome" Analla replies. Emilia finally lets go of Analla, looks at her and announces.

"We should go and find a compartment to sit in" Analla nods and they walk to find an empty compartment.

"Oh by the way, I really like your hair!" Emilia compliments Analla's purple hair. This suddening changes Analla's mood as she gets nervous.

"Ahh- um t-thank you. It's-ahh dyed!" Analla says quickly trying not to raise suspicion of her new friend.

"Okay…" Emilia replies sensing something is wrong but decides not to question it, for Analla's sake.

Meanwhile in the next compartment, Katerina and Scorpius in the middle of a very heated argument about their favourite Quidditch teams.

"Clearly you haven't seen the last few years of the Quidditch World Cup if you go for a team like France they didn't even make it into the top ten last year!" Scorpius argues.

"Just because they didn't make it last year into the top ten doesn't mean they aren't a good team! At least they are not full of themselves like those on Irelan-" Katerina was cut of by the sound if the compartment door opening showing, two girls in the entrance.

One girl immediately drew the eyes of those in the compartment. Her bright purple hair in strong contrast to the black Hogwarts cloak to which she was already wearing. The other girl to the left of her was shorter than the first girl, her bright blue eyes peering from behind the figure of the taller girl. Katerina looked at the shorter girl and thought 'Well she is not going to be in Gryffindor that's for sure'. Scorpius on the other hand was mesmerized by the blue colour that was of the shorter girl's eyes.

"Hi- um can we possibly sit here?" The purple haired girl says with a small smile on her face.

"Oh- um by the way my name is Analla. Analla Jemstone but you can call me AJ if that suits better. Oops I'm rambling again well and this is- ahh I'm so sorry. What's your name again?" She looks down at the shorter girl.

"Oh- me? Well I'm Emilia Rose" she says with a bright smile towards Scorpius, who had caught her eye when she had come in.

"So" Katerina says breaking the uncomfortable silence that had settled in the compartment. "What are you?" She asks with a smirk.

"W-what?" Analla stutters at the question being asked.

"Well I'm Katerina. A Pureblood from the Nott and Malfoy family lineage of witches and wizards. Scorpius is-" she was cut off by Scorpius who snaps at Katerina.

"I can introduce myself Katerina. And plus why do care so much about blood status? It's not the Wizarding War anymore." He glares

"I was just curious Scorpius. Can't I be proud of my pureblood heritage?" She smirks at him knowing she has won the argument.

"Fine. I am Scorpius Malfoy, and I am a pureblood." He mumbles looking down scared of the reaction that the people sitting across from him will have to hearing his family name.

"Oh-" Analla feeling the tension in the air speaks up. "I'm a half blood from the Jemstone family, but I already said that didn't. Oh I'm sorry i have a tendency to ramble off when I am nervous and go to random conv-"

"You don't have to be nervous Analla. No one is going to judge you here." He shoots a friendly smile towards her, and looks to his right as to send a message to Katerina. She rolls her eyes at him. Scorpius just shakes his head and turns to look at Emilia.

"So, what about you Emilia? Well you don't have to if you don't feel comfortable doing so but-" he rambles on but is cut off by Emilia

"It's okay Scorpius. If you really want to know I am a muggleborn" Emilia gives a look towards Katerina as if daring her to say something.

"So my suspicions were confirmed you are a mudblood. Sorry Scorpius I have to leave, my father told me never to talk to mudbloods. And I advise you do too if you know what is good for you." She stands up to walk out of the compartment. Before she leaves she notices a small flicker of colour gloss over Analla's eyes. A red colour. Katerina smirks and walks away to find another empty compartment. Scorpius sighs and turns towards the two other girls.

"I'm so sorry about her. That was rude and uncalled for and-" He starts to apologize before Emilia cuts him off saying

"You don't have to apologize for her behaviour you did nothing" He guiltily looks her in the eyes. The feeling of anger towards Katerina melts away, as he is being hypnotised by the blue colour of Emilia's eyes. He snaps out of his trance remembering what just happened.

"I-ahh I have to go after her, my parents-" He stops what he was saying when he sees the hurt look Emilia has on her face. He turns to look at Analla, scared to turn and look at Emilia.

"Again I'm sorry. I'll see you around." He quickly says before walking out of the compartment. Unknown to each other were both thinking of the captivating person they met in the compartment.
