- Circe's POV -

After my friends put their robes on we walk back to the compartment and chill for a few hours until we arrive at Hogwarts, That was the plan until a round-faced-looking boy opens the compartment door and begins to stutter once his and Draco's eyes meet. 

"Do you have a frog in your throat?" Blaise grunted rather loud, he clearly didn't like the boy because he began to glare daggers at him, Artemis also seemed to dislike the boy because as soon as he opened his mouth Artie started growling. 

I felt sympathy for the boy, he and I both locked eyes and his stuttering stopped "Oh my Merlin! I-I mean your Merlin's descendant right? Circe Calidonius!" The boy seemed embarrassed about what he just said.

"May I ask how you knew it was me?" I questioned, "Well your all over the Daily Prophet and Merlin's bloodline all have heterochromia eyes!" the boy exclaimed, we'll that was an idiotic question to ask everyone knew the Calidonius bloodline, obviously this boy has done his research. I answered with a reluctant nod.

"That so wicked! you're so wicked! I can't believe I get to meet you! My name is Neville Longbottom!" the boy gushed, he stepped further into the compartment but Draco stood up and pushed him back "What exactly do you want Longbottom..." Draco growls making Blaise snicker. 

"O-oh I-I u-um lost m-my pet f-frog, have you s-seen him?" Longbottom stutters, "No we haven't" Draco scowls. Longbottom gives me one last scared look and disappears down the hall, the whole compartment breaks out in laughter "Did you see his face!" Blaise cackles. 

"Have you seen my pet f-frog!" Daphne mimics, Theo lifts his head from his book, and chuckles at the site "Oh Merlin your Merlin's descendant!" Theo says in a high-pitched voice.

Even I couldn't help but giggle a little he was acting a bit pathetic, If your going to talk to us you at least have to hold your ground. The train comes to a halt and I dash to the window "We're here!" I squeal. I put Artie in her cage and we head out of the compartment.

The station was so packed that Crabbe and Goyle had to stand guard and push unwanted people away that dared come near us, Theo was holding Daphne close so she wouldn't get lost in the sea of children, Draco was directing Crabbe and Goyle while he told Blaise to look after me.

"Pfft, him look after me I should be the one looking after him!" I protest pointing at the boy trying to sweet talk an older Hufflepuff, "That's a good idea Circe, Look after Blaise for me" Draco smirks at me and laughs at my annoyed reaction, I can never say no to him I have no idea why, it frustrates me. 

"Ugh, fine... come here Blaise" I grab him by the back of the collar and drag him away from the Hufflepuff over to our GPC (group protection circle) It looks exactly as it sounds, it's what we've been called our group for years and it just stuck. 

We make our way to the front of the crowd to get a better look at what's going on, Little did we know a huge man with an even bigger voice would shout for the sea of children to follow him. 

The man looks about 8ft tall and three times wider like he's half or even a little part giant, probably is. "Righte-o no'h yer first year's let's goe only first year's" he yells, the giant leads us through a forest holding a dimly lit lamp and tells us more about himself, his voice booming through the dark forest. 

"Well er, me'h name's Rubeus... Rubeus Hagrid! Bout yer' can just call me'h Hagrid!" Draco turns up his nose at the sight of him. 

Something about the forest was soothing let it be the sounds the smell or the look of It, It's almost like it's calling me beckoning me to come closer and explore its secrets as if there's a prize at the end.
