Walburga hugged Celena. They were in a corner, so no one could actually see Walburga. Narcissa and Lucius were clearly in the crowd with Draco at there sides.

Celena smiled at her mother before she looked over at the Malfoy Family. "Remember to write, especially if those Light wizard's are giving you problems." She said.

Celena nodded. "Of course." She said and after another hug she was heading over the Malfoy Family. Narcissa sighed as Draco obviously didn't want to be near her.

"Draco, please." Narcissa said strictly and then turned to Celena. "You may join Draco on the train if you like. You don't have to." She said. Narcissa was basically asking Celena to watch Draco even from a distance because the kid couldn't be trusted. Pure-blood or not.

"Thank you Narcissa." She said with a small grin and turned to Draco. "Shall we go?" She said holding out her arm for the boy to grab. Draco huffed at her and walked away.

"Rude." Narcissa seemed to agree.

They entered the train and soon found their way to the back of the train where the Slytherin's sat. Draco was determined to get into Slytherin and Celena didn't really care as long as she didn't go to Gryffindor. Another Black in Gryffindor could go wrong very quickly. She didn't want to be Dumbledore's focused, the man would be dealing with Phoebe Potter's disappearance he still hadn't mentioned to anyone.

Draco sat down after finding his compartment with Theodore Nott, Goyle, and Crabbe. She didn't really care for names at the moment as she grabbed her potion book and sat by the window. Draco started talking obsessively with his friends. 

It was about an hour into the ride when someone threw open their compartment door. The person didn't even knock. "Malfoy." Ronald Weasley was at it again, he was glaring at Malfoy. Ronald's eyes then landed on the curled up figured of Celena that was just peacefully reading her book. "Lily?"

Celena raised her eyes. "Hm?"

"Lily?" Draco asked, now in confusion. Celena glared at him as she uncurled her figure. 

"What are you doing with snakes?"

"They haven't even been sorted." Celena answered, Draco looked offended but Celena couldn't bring herself to care at the moment. 

"Malfoy will be a Slytherin and you don't want anything to do with him and his sidekicks." Weasley said disgustingly. "You should come join me!" 

Celena rose an eyebrow. "I would rather not, thank you." She said closing her book. 

Draco was death glaring at Ronald Weasley and she wasn't exactly sure why. Weasley finally enter fully into their compartment and tried to pull Celena up and out of the compartment. "They don't want muggle-borns, they hate them."

She saw Draco mouth, "muggle-born?" Draco's death glare seemed to get worse.

 "Why don't you take your Gryffindor wannabe arse somewhere else?" She finally snapped and pushed him away. He fell out of the compartment door and she slammed it shut. "I hate Dumbledore lovers." She said with venom in her voice.

Draco raised an eyebrow at her. "I met him in Diagon Alley, he knew me as Lillian, a muggle-born." She said with a shrug and grabbed her book, continuing to read her Potion's book.

It wasn't long before a Gryffindor Prefect and Slytherin Prefect enter the compartment and Celena internally groaned. "You pushed my brother." The Gryffindor one spoke first, Celena had to guess it was Percy Weasley.

"I'm sure there's a reason for it." The Slytherin Perfect said quickly. The girl really didn't want to deal with Percy or his brothers. She didn't even know why she was dragged down her, the children hadn't even been sorted yet but Weasley claimed that were definitely disgusting snakes.
