The summer seemed to fly by for Samantha, what with having to pack up everything she had for the move. Speaking of which, she still wasn't that thrilled about it. Though she was a little more comfortable after she went for a visit to meet the headmaster. He was a very old man, with a long white beard and a kind face. He was very kind to her and her parents when they went to Hogwarts to visit and get a tour. She also needed to get sorted. She decided, after having the tour and seeing the school, that maybe going there wasn't going to be as bad as she originally thought.

Though she was still upset about leaving her friends. When she told them she was moving, Taylor freaked out and Becka broke down crying, throwing her arms around Samantha and tell her that she couldn't leave because she was the one who brought the three of them together. This had made Samantha feel even worse for leaving. But unfortunately she didn't have a choice. And she promised she would try and write as much as she could. The other two girls had calmed down enough after that to nod and talk about what they were going to do for Samantha's last days there.


A couple months later, Samantha and her parents were at Kings Cross Station in London, getting ready to get on Platform 9 3/4.

"Ok," Mrs. Montgomery said, staring at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. "Now just run through the middle of Platforms 9 and 10. We'll be right behind you."

Samantha nodded and got right in between the two platforms. She stared at the wall nervously. This definitely wasn't how she went to school in America. She used floo powder to get to the academy, not a hidden train. She gulped, took a deep breath and started running. Right before she got to the gate, she closed her eyes, in a desperate attempt to try to block out the pain she knew was coming.

However when she didn't feel herself hit the wall, Samantha opened her eyes and gasped speechless. Hundreds of kids were walking around and getting on a bright red steam engine that had the words "Hogwarts Express" on the front. "Wow! Its huge!" she said smiling, admiring the big train.

Mr. and Mrs. Montgomery appeared a few seconds later, standing behind their daughter. "Now remember what Professor Dumbledore said. You'll be in Gryffindor." Mrs. Montgomery said.

"Yeah I know." Samantha said looking around. It was then she noticed three kids, two boys and a girl, walking over to her. One boy had black, messy hair and glasses. The other was taller with bright red hair. The girl had curly brown hair and looked like she had a smart attitude about her.

"Hey, I don't think I've ever seen you here before." the boy with the glasses said when they got to Samantha who smiled.

"That's because I just moved here."

"Hey, if you just moved here, how come you have a Gryffindor robe on?" the red haired boy asked.

Samantha giggled. "Because I've already been sorted."

"Oh." he said turning red. He was kind of cute.

"Hello." the girl said smiling. "I'm Hermione. This is Ron," she pointed to the red head "and Harry." she pointed to the boy with glasses.

"Hey." Harry said smiling.

"Hi." Ron smiled shyly.

"Hi. I'm Samantha. But you can call me Sam." Samantha said. Suddenly the whistle blew, meaning they only had five minutes to get on the train.

"Come on." Hermione said looking at Samantha. "You can sit with us."

"Ok." Sam smiled turning to her parents and hugging them. "Bye Mom. Bye Dad."

"Bye!" her mother said.

"See-ya!" her dad said.

Samantha let them go and waved, before walking away with Harry, Ron, and Hermione. As she followed them, she knew she was definitely going to like it here, more than she original thought.
