Orianna grinned. "Gryffindor; second year." She sat down across from Aurelie, picking up Jinx and stroking his back. "Yeah, Aurelie, Eileen's pretty much summed it up. You sleep with people in your house, eat with them, but you go to class with different people from different houses. It's not that complicated."

I looked from Eileen to Orianna and said "Zis well take zome getting uze to. At Beauxbatons we ermm-- are individuals." I looked out the window watching the landscape roll by in the everincresing darkness once again feeling the deep knot of lonliness in the pit of my stomach. i sighed and looked back at the faces of my new friends. "How will they sort me? I am in zecond year still, am i not?"

Eileen nodded, "Basically its what Orianna said there. And each house has a teacher incharge and thats it I think."
"Zis well take zome getting uze to. At At Beauxbatons we ermm-- are individuals." Eileen sighed a tad wistfully, "I guess that would be fun but I've sorta gotten used to have 4 more roommates. More fun on Christmas morning."
"How will they sort me? I am in zecond year still, am i not?" Eileen glanced over at Orianna,"I dunno. Maybe McGonagall, shes the vice principal, will take you to Dumbledore's office and he'll decide where to place you."

((Ok... Let's get off of this train already!))
"Not my fault that you wanted a small owl. And named it Shari."
*Kaia laughed softly as the little owl hooted and flew around her. However, she stopped as the train began to slow down.* "Uh oh..." *She quickly grabbed her robes, beginning to change into them. As the other girls did the same, Kaia quickly combed her fingers through her hair, trying to look somewhat decent. She was suddenly quite nervous, her stomach twisting into a knot.*

((darn tootin! I've been itching to start a Quidditch thread..therefore..DIBS on it!))
Kiana grabbed the owl and pushed it into its cage muttering, "Behave!" while Aisling put her own owl into its cage with more gentleness.
Aisling looked over at Kali and said reassuringly as they stepped down on the platform,"Don't worry....("First years over 'ere! First years! Step this way!")we all are in the same boat...errmmm..." She trailed off when she saw the boats which were floating in front of them.
She muttered under her breath, "I meant metaphorically speaking...."

((lol! Fine then, you nut! I get dibs on Quodpot! I love that little guy! ;D )) "I meant metaphorically speaking...." *Kaia giggled slightly, despite her nervousness. Luckily for her, they really were all in the same boat. Kaia sat in the boat restlessly but quietly. However, when she got her first good look at Hogwarts, her jaw dropped.* "It's so... beautiful... I've never seen a castle this close before..."

"Oh!" i gasped as the train pulled to a stop. Hurridly i pulled on my black hogwarts robes over my light silk beauxbatons dress. I pulled my trunk down and Chole slid around my legs. Looking at the other two and asked "Zoooo.... where do i go from here?" (( hahahaha i love this one!!!))

Aisling nodded mutely with her. It was truely an awe filled sight. The great castle surronded in an aura of mystery and power. She raised her robes as she hopped off the boat after Kiana and Kaia. Staying in the middle of the sea of black, her eyes darted around the interior of the castle.
She whistled low in appreciation but immediatly squealed when she felt water dripping over her head. Kiana looked up and right through Peeves who was hanging upside down and laughing gleefully at the dripping wet students. She ducked behind a statue with a few other students as he took aim again and began to toss around the water ballons in his hand.
---------- Eileen pointed at Chloe, "Well, Firstly I would suggest that you put...Chloe was it? Back into her basket. It will be more comfortable for her."

(*Blink blink* Hi! Sorry I've been gone.... I've had so many projects and stuff due ) Orianna nodded, picking Jinx up by the scruff of his neck. "This one doesn't like cages, unfortunatley, and throws a fit when I put him in one. It's much better for the safety of others that he stays as free as possible," she said dryly, looking at Eileen and Auraile. "And don't worry, my french friend, we'll take you to where you need to go." She smiled, readjusting her robes as she moved to walk out of the door. "Coming?"

Eileen nodded, " Exactly. Given that you are in the same year as we both are, you're bound to keep seeing us in different classes."
She stood next to Orianna and asked, "How do we get to the castle this year?"
(I really have no idea on the transport so..HALP!)

((Carriages pulled by invisible horse-like creatures that can only be seen by people who have watched another person die. Check Order of the Phoenix. ;D ))
*Kaia squealed as she dodged a balloon and ducked behind a statue with Aisling. She stared nervously up at Peeves, shouting over the chaos.* "Who is that!?"

(I wasnt sure as transport wasnt really mentioned in Books 2 &3 )
Aisling yelled over the din, "A ghost I think. It might be Peter or something. Eileen mentioned something about him." Both of them peeked over the statue as an authoritative voice said, "Peeves! Stop this at once! Or I shall have to inform the Headmaster!"
Peeves made a rude noise and floated out, throwing the remained water ballons away randomly. Kiana wrung her hair as they stood together. "That was not fun." The first year students milled behind Mcgonagall as they stood outside the Great Hall.
---------
Eileen pointed at the sky as Orianna, herself and Aurelie stood inside the Great Hall. "Its been enchanted to look like the sky outside. Its really beautiful on days when its raining. Anyways, I'd better be heading to my house table. Where do you wanna sit Aurelie?"

((thanks for getting off the train. Soccer weekend... had no time to post!))
"Well, zi don know. Who places uz where?" I looked across the great hall. Four long tables were placed longways each bedecked with different colors and mascots. I shook my head at the sight. "At Beauxbatons, we are all one. Zis zeems com-- err-- word for-- zhoot!" I pulled my dictionary from my robes, "Ha! competetive."

I smiled at Eileen. "Zo, here's anozer question... can girls be apart of the Quidditch teams? I don't know if i'm all zat great but, i like to try." A hand fell onto my shoulder, startled i turned around to face a stern looking woman with the tightest bun i had ever seen. "Eileen? Orianna?"
