On their way to Hogwarts part 1 (Re-Reposted)

Hey people of Fanfiction. I re-wrote this story because I read over the comments and I decided that I wanted to add more stuff to this chapter. Sorry to the people who had characters who were removed but I hated the chapter and I was having trouble with the next chapter so I broke them going to hogwarts in half so everyone's character will be added at some point in the next chapter. So thanks for all the reviews so far and review if you want.

P.S. I want to know if anyone's character has a love intrest and who they are friends with so I can put them in the same compartment. Thanks :)


Vanessa felt like she had a million butterflies flying around in her stomach. She was beyond anxious for the new school year. All of the new people and the stress she would have to endure while trying to keep up with all of her classes. Today was the end of summer meaning that it was time for her to be returning to the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry also know as Hogwarts. She couldn't wait to see all her old friends and hopefully along the way she would be able to meet many more. She was worried about the classes that she would have to be taking this year and the work load that would follow. Her mind was clouded with worried thoughts as she stuffed the last of her clothing into her trunk. Closing the trunk she stopped to listen and she heard the muffled voice of her mother call out "Vanessa, dear, you need to hurry up so we don't miss the train." Vanessa quickly glanced around her room one last time trying to memorize everything. She sighed and grabbed her truck heading down stairs to meet her parents.

Vanessa was an only child and lived with her dad and mother, Luna and Neville. Both her parents had informed her that they had both attended the same school and thus the reason Vanessa was skilled in Herbology. Fiona, her best friend, was also going to be attending Hogwarts. Fiona has dark brown hair that she tends to have in ponytail, bangs, slightly short, dimples, good figure, and always has her nails painted. But Vanessa on the other hand has long blonde hair, green eyes, short, likes to wear her hair in a braid, and she has a certain pair of boots that she wears constantly.

When Vanessa reached the bottom of the stairs her parents were standing there waiting. "Ok I'm all ready let's go", Vanessa exclaimed with hint of nervousness clear in her voice. As Vanessa and her parents got in the car she looked down at her outfit to make sure everything was in order. Today she was wearing a light blue top with a simple pair of jean shorts and her favorite pair of black boots. Vanessa looked up from her outfit satisfied with her choice and decided to stare out the window. She watched as the trees blurred by as they sped down the road towards the very familiar train station. When they arrived at the train station Vanessa hurried out of the car. She waited on her parents to pop the trunk so that she could grab her trunk. Once her trunk was safely with her, she followed after her parents to platform 9 and 3/4.

Vanessa started to get more and more anxious as she and her parents approached the platform. Vanessa made sure she had her trunk and glanced around for any muggles that might be looking. Once she saw that no muggles were looking she closed her eyes, along with her parents ran into the wall. She opened her eyes once she heard the familiar buzz of parents and children alike saying there farewell's.

As Vanessa glanced around she noticed a familiar dark haired girl and came to the realization that it was her best friend Fiona Finnigan. Vanessa looked towards her parents and said "I'm going to go talk to one of my friends". Her mom replied "Ok darling just don't go to far, your dad and I will stay here and watch your luggage". "Thanks guys," Vanessa said, giving both of her parents hugs ,"I'll be back in a bit."

As Vanessa approached Fiona she noticed that Fiona was wearing a creme colored shirt with a black skirt and her favorite pairs of boots that were well worn. Fiona was looking around and spotted Vanessa. They both hugged and while in the embrace Vanessa said "I missed you over the break. How was your summer." Fiona let go of Vanessa and stood back while replying in an Irish accent "It was good very boring though. How was your summer?" Vanessa grinned at Fiona and said "I pretty much slept all summer. It was great." Fiona chuckled at Vanessa's remark. Fiona and Vanessa talked for a bit more before Vanessa decided to grab her luggage from her parents so Fiona and her could find a compartment before they were all full.

After grabbing her luggage Vanessa hugged her parents goodbye and walked to meet Fiona. The two girls walked towards the door of the train. Right before they were able to get on the train they noticed a girl walking towards them with very expensive clothing on. Right away they knew that it was their enemy, Alessa Zabini. Fiona and Vanessa gave each other a knowing glance before turning to face Alessa.

Alessa had a smug look on her face as she spoke ,"Well, Well, Well if it isn't the 2 girls from the reject house." Fiona glared and her and responded with a harsh tone ,"I don't know what your talking about, we are both in Hufflepuff." Alessa glared back and replied "I'm not gonna waste my time on the two of you, just make sure you two watch your back." With that said Alessa stalked off. Fiona and Vanessa looked at each other and rolled their eyes knowing that Alessa couldn't do much to hurt them. After linking arms the two girls walked off and headed back towards Vanessa's parents. Vanessa's parents gave Fiona a warm hello. Vanessa then explained to her parents that she was going to head onto the train with Fiona before all the compartments filled up. Vanessa gave her parents each a hug and one last farewell before grabbing her luggage and heading off towards Fiona's parents. After Fiona's parents gave Vanessa a hug and hello Fiona told her parents goodbye and gave them hugs. Fiona proceeded to grab her luggage and headed towards the train with Vanessa following quickly behind.
