Aurelia Tonks wasn't much like her older sister Nymphadora. Besides the fact that they were both very stubborn and clumsy. Aurelia had beautiful brown hair and bright blue eyes, just like her mother. She was the daughter of Andromeda and Ted Tonks, her father being a muggle and her mother, a witch. 

They weren't surprised when Aurelia was sorted into Griffindor, even being born into a long line of Slytherins. She was brave and outgoing. Born on August 2, 1980, she was 7 years younger than her sister.

"Ok Aurelia, are you sure you have all of your things?" her mother asked her once they crossed the barrier between platforms 9 and 10.

"Yes, I am sure" the girl replied, rolling her eyes. She looked at her trolley to make sure she had everything she needed. Her trunk, cauldron, and her owl Rosy. Andromeda pulled her into a tight squeeze.

"I am going to miss you so much! Make sure to write!" her mother said letting go of her daughter.

"I will. I'll miss you too! Goodbye!" Aurelia exclaimed, making her way onto the Hogwarts express. She was bursting with excitement. She couldn't wait to make new friends.

"Excuse me!" Aurelia exclaimed as she made her way through the packed hall of the train. Most of the cabins were filled with people, so she made her way to the back. She stopped at one of the last few cabins when she notices two boys that look around her age sitting down, having a conversation. Aurelia decided to join them so she opened the door slightly and stuck her head in. The two boys looked at her. 

"Excuse me, do you mind if I join you?" She asked looking at the boys. One of them had red hair and was enjoying a chocolate frog. The other was raven-haired and had green eyes that shown underneath his glasses.

"Of course not!" the raven-haired boy said. He pats a spot next to him and Aurelia went and sat herself down.

"I'm Aurelia. Aurelia Tonks." She said shaking the red-haired boy's hand.

"I'm Ron Weasley." He said with a smile. "first year."

I then shook the green-eyed boy's hand. "And I'm Harry, Harry Potter. Nice to meet you"

Aurelia stared at him in shock. It was THE Harry Potter. The boy who lived. She noticed the scar on his forehead. "er- nice to meet you, Harry"

"Nice to meet you too." His face was undeniably red. Weird, Aurelia thought. Maybe he was just nervous for his first day...

The three kids talked excitedly about Hogwarts when a rat crawled out of Rons' pocket.

"This is scabbers by the way. Pathetic isn't he?"

Aurelia and Harry look at the rat.

"Just a little bit," Harry said

That thing is discussing, Aurelia thought.

"Fred gave him a spell to turn him yellow. Want to see?" Ron asked. Fred and George, Rons' two brothers, were according to Ron, quite the troublemakers.

"Yeah." Harry and Aurelia said in unison. Ron cleared his throat and spoke.

"Sun-"

Just that moment a certain bushy-haired girl came to the door. 

"Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville has lost it"

Ron shook his head. "No." The girl looked at Rons' wand.

"Oh. Are you doing magic? Let's see then." Ron cleared his throat once again.

"Sunshine daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!"

Nothing happened to the rat.

"Are you sure that's a real spell? Well it's not very good, is it? Of course, I've only tried a few simple ones myself. But they have worked for me." She said sticking her nose in the air, then walking over to Harry. "For example." She pointed her wand at the boys' broken glasses. "oculus repairo". The glasses were then fixed. "That's better, isn't it? Holy cricket, you're Harry Potter! I'm Hermione Granger, and you two?" She asked and then turned to Ron and Aurelia.

"I'm" He swallowed his treat. "Ron Weasley"

"Aurelia Tonks"

"Pleasure. You three better change into your robes, I expect we'll be arriving soon." Hermione then went to leave the cabin but turned around when she reached the door. "You've got dirt on your nose by the way. Did you know? Just there"

Ron looked at her in disgust and rubbed his nose. The three then chatted, excited to make new friends, before they even stepped foot into Hogwarts.
