"Mother please!" The girl begged the woman, the woman did not appear to care whatsoever.

"Don't be ridiculous. You are serving our lord." She scolded the girl.

"Why does it have to be me! Every time! Why can't they do this to someone else!" The little girl cried.

"Because you are the only one who can, would you rather he do it?" She pointed to the little sleeping boy in the corner of the room.

"No!" The little girl shouted.

"Then here you are. Go." She pointed to the door.

"It hurts so much." The girl started crying.

"If you can cry about it then it clearly doesn't hurt enough." She scowled and pushed the little girl through the door.

"I'm not crying! I promise!" The girl wiped her tears frantically.

"I can see them falling off your face!" The woman pushed the girl into the wall, the girls head getting the worst of it, blood leaking out from the side.

"See what you've made me do?!" The woman started shouting at the sight of the blood.

"I'm sorry!" The girl screamed back.

"Avery!"  The woman yelled and the girl shielded her face with her frail arms.

The man walked in tutting, "What did we say about the crying, Nikova?"

"I'm sorry!" She yelled.

"I'm afraid that isn't enough, sweetheart." He started stroking the little girls head before calling for someone else, someone else who entered the room with a knife.

"You need to learn how to behave." The man stroked the girls face with the knife, making a trail of blood along her pretty pale face. "Or you'll be forced." He pointed the knife at the room where the little boy was sleeping.

A door slid open somewhere and I jerked awake.

"Sorry! Can I sit?" A soft voice asked.

I blinked at the blurry figure, as they came into focus I saw that it was Ginny Weasley, the little red headed girl I'd met in Diagon Alley.

I rubbed my eyes. "Yeah sure, come in." I smiled tiredly.

She came further into the compartment and stopped short when she saw Will who was asleep opposite me. "Oh! Sorry I didn't realise you were with someone." She blushed and turned to leave.

"No wait!," I called and she reluctantly came back in. "This is Will, remember him from the bookshop? He's my cousin, don't worry."

She blushed even more. "Sorry!" And rushed to sit down next to me. "I always make assumptions, pardon me."

I shook my head, smiling. "That's okay."

"It's really cramped on the train, huh? I always thought I'd be bigger." She signed.

"Yeah I guess, you didn't want to sit with your brother?" I asked, eating a chocolate frog Will wasn't awake to catch me steal from him.

"Which one? I've got six." She said casually.

I spat out a bit of chocolate frog and coughed loudly into my hand. "You have six brothers?" I gaped whilst trying to contain my cough attack.

She nodded glumly. "Bill and Charlie aren't at Hogwarts anymore though. Percys in the prefect compartment and i wouldn't want to go in there if I was allowed, Fred and George are mucking about in the prefect compartment, teasing Percy I think," She started grinning at the last bit. "And I can't find Ron but he's probably with Hermione—and Harry, you know Harry Potter?" She said stuttering.
