Enjoy the chapter.

Beware the talking tea.

Train Ride Time

"Linda do I have to?" I whined.

"It's that or washing dishes." Linda reminded me.

"Washing dishes isn't that hard." I mused.

"And serving people food and drinks, which includes talking to them."

"Ugh talking to people."

"Then they will get drunk and start hitting on you."

"Wait, why am I doing all the work?"

"I am too lazy."

"Meanie." I pouted but alas Linda is immune.

"It's just one fire call." Linda pointed out.

"But, then I will owe him."

"Maybe it won't be that bad."

"We sent him a note telling him not to kill people and that smiles make the world go round." I pointed out.

"That probably won't help our cause."

"Yah think?"

"Just do it."

"Fine. Could I make a fire call?" I questioned.

"Sure." Tom the bartender said.

"Hogwarts, Severus Snape's quarters." I said clearly.

"What?" Snape said shocked a bit because my head appeared in his fireplace.

"Hi, um, so we are back in this world and I was wondering if you could spare some money for Linda and me to be able to spend the night in the inn so that we can go to Hogwarts on the train." I said quickly and without taking a break.

"Very well. You owe me." Snape grinned.

"Yeah, I know." I sighed.

"I will send an owl with the payment." Snape informed me.

"Okay, well, I will go because I feel like someone is looking at my butt. Byes for now." I said before I took out my head from the fireplace. I looked behind me and there was a creepy customer guy staring at me. I rationally picked up a piece of wood and threw it at him. Surprisingly, to everyone, it actually hit him. He stopped staring.

"Nice." Linda grinned.

"I know." I said shocked.


"I think we should pet him." I said as we walked into Lupin's compartment.

"Sure." Linda agreed. I sat down next to Lupin and began petting his hair causing the man to wake up.

"What?"

"Hi!" Linda and I both said happily.

"You are the two the headmaster told me about." Lupin replied oddly calm for someone who has a random stranger still petting his head. I love doggies and petting them.

"We are famous." Linda said proudly.

"More like infamous." I remarked.

"Do you mind if I sleep?" Lupin questioned worried about being rude by sleeping. Aw, manners.

"Go ahead." I said shifting over so that he could sleep. Must not pet sleeping people.


"Hi, um everywhere else is full." Harry said.

"Join us." I said creepily.

"Yes, join us." Linda said creepily.

"Um." Ron said confused.

"Good to know we can still scare small children." I said proudly to Linda.

"I am not a small child." Ron said walking into the compartment.

"No, I suppose not." I said grinning before I poked him in the belly.

"Hey." Ron whined.

"Oh look you all are inside, now you have no choice but to stay." I grinned eerily at them.

"Stupid compartments being full." Ron whined.

"Yes blame the inanimate objects." I pointed out.

"Just like we do." Linda smiled.

"Join us." Linda and I said in random creepy unison.

"Ignore them." Harry informed Ron.

"You ruin our fun." Linda and I pouted at the same time.

"Who is that?" Hermione questioned.

"A hobo." Linda and I said at the same time.

"The unison is starting to creep me out." Harry admitted.

"Who do you think it is really?" Hermione asked Harry completely ignoring us, rude.

"It could honestly be a Hobo. Hobos were people who rode trains without paying. I doubt he paid to ride." I pointed out logically nearly smirking at Hermione. I would have smirked but then I realized I don't know how. [Yay, Hobo railroad in New Hampshire!]

"Why are you sitting with a Hobo?" Hermione sighed wanting information more than she wanted to argue with crazy people. Arguing with crazy people never helps because no matter how much logic you use somehow you will still lose.

"You said it yourself," I began and then Linda joined in for the added effect of random creepy unison, "All the compartments are full."

"But you were here earlier." Hermione argued. Apparently she forgot the 'don't argue with crazy people' rule.

"How do you know that? Stalker." Linda said.

"For all you know it was full when we got here too." I replied.

"There were still compartments when we got here." Ron tried to help but failed. Failure.

"Then why didn't you go in one of them." I grinned eerily at him. I have that facial expression down.

"We, ugh." Ron said eloquently.

"That's right, crazy people always win arguments." I pointed out and Linda nodded her head in agreement.

"You just called yourselves crazy." Harry pointed out.

"Well, we are." I shrugged as if it was everyday that you admit that you are crazy. You never know maybe it is. You would think people would figure it out and just walk away. No people have to make me admit it.

"It is not good to lie to yourself." Linda agreed.

"There is no arguing with you both is there?" Hermione questioned.

"Didn't we just say that?" Linda questioned.

"Fine." Hermione huffed.

"How are we going to talk about things with them in the compartment?" Harry whispered wanting to tell his friends about what happened.

"You can talk in front of us. We already know." Linda pointed out.

"How?" Hermione questioned narrowing her eyes at us.

"They were somehow there for part of it." Harry admitted.

"But not all." Hermione continued.

"But we know about it." Linda continued and I shook my head sadly. Seriously Linda stop telling people we know things, it is more fun to shock them later.

"How?" Hermione asked curiously.

"We are psychic." I said dryly covering up Linda's mouth.

"I don't believe you." Harry replied.

"Professor Trelawny thinks we both have a gift in Divination." Linda said proudly.

"I hope we go with her again." I hoped.

"Yeah, she has tea." Linda agreed.

"Talking tea." I pointed out.

"Yes!" Linda remembered shouting happily.

"And you know what else?"

"What?" Linda played along with me.

"She's not Snape." I pointed out matter of factly. (Yes, Word I am well aware that factly isn't a word. Thank you for the pretty red underlines.)

"Obviously." Hermione said. Suddenly the train stopped and it began to get cold.

"Is it colder?" Linda questioned.

"Judging by the frost on the window I am going with yes." I pointed out amusing myself with drawing things in the frost. Things like a stick-figure man with his stick-figure dog and a stick-figure star.

"If I remember correctly this is the part when—" Linda began whispering.

"We get chocolate!" we whispered happily to each other.

I looked towards the door and saw a dementor stealing Harry's happy memories and him passing out as I began to forget mine.

"What were we just talking about?" Linda questioned me having forgotten the joy of us having chocolate soon.

"Here this will help." Lupin said handing Linda and me some chocolate.

"You are my new favorite person." I said taking the chocolate and hugging him quickly. I hugged him quickly so I could get back to my chocolate eating quicker.

"I remember now, we were talking about eating chocolate." Linda remarked ignoring the important conversation that Harry and them were having about dementors.


Preview from next chapter:

"What do you mean Ron? Those two are crazy, they even admitted it."

"Yes but, you get the feeling that they know things."

"They do hang out with Trelawny a lot."

"Because she is so great at seeing the future." Hermione scoffed.

"Alright so who is going to ask them?" Harry questioned.

"Not it." Ron and Hermione said quickly and at the same time.
