“Do you have everything?” Fred asked, walking Jasmine through to the platform, George, Molly and Ginny following behind.

“Yes, and if I don't, I'll just send an owl,” Jasmine said, pushing her luggage cart, holding Milo's carrier.

“Okay,” Fred said, before stopping by the train. He picked up Amara's cage, before the luggage cart disapperated. Jasmine looked at Fred and smiled at him.

“Well, this is it,” Jasmine said.

“Yeah, are you sure you don't just want to come work at the shop?” Fred asked.

“I'm sure, I'll be back next summer,” Jasmine said. “I promised Remus that I would graduate, and someone has to keep an eye on your brother and Harry. I can't leave all of that to just Hermione.”

“Right,” Fred said. Jasmine nodded and heard the conductor announcing that the train would be leaving soon. “Oh, I still need to work on your butterfly, so I'll send an owl once it's finished.”

“Okay,” Jasmine said, before leaning up and kissing Fred softly. Fred kissed back softly and blushed lightly, smiling when they pulled away.

“Good luck,” Fred said.

“Thanks, this is going to be a boring year,” Jasmine said, making Fred laugh a little.

“That it will be,” he said. Jasmine chuckled and hugged him carefully, which was a little awkward with Amara's cage. She hugged George and Molly, who wished her luck for her final Hogwarts year, before boarding the train with her ferret and her owl. She found a seat with the trio and looked out the window, where Molly and the twins stood. She could hear the train starting up and waved at them through the window. Molly and the twins waved back happily, as the train began moving slowly down the track.

“So, Jasmine. Nervous about your final year?” Ron asked.

“Not really, I'm just looking forward to what happens. Umbridge is gone, Dumbledore is back, and I heard we're getting new staff,” Jasmine said, opening Milo's carrier to let him out. “Since I'm ahead in potions and charms, I'll have to find something to do. I might hide out in the library for once.” The door swung open a little later, the sweet old trolley witch stood with her trolley of sweets, giving them a warm smile.

“Anything from the trolley, dears?” She asked kindly.

“May I have a pumpkin pasty and two cauldron cakes, please?” Jasmine asked, taking a galleon from her pocket.

“Oh, of course, dear. Anything for you?” the witch asked the trio, as she prepared Jasmine's order. Hermione politely declined, but Ron ordered a few things, Harry just asking for some chocolate frogs to save, before paying for both his order and Ron's.

“I could have paid for you, Jasmine,” Harry said, once the trolley witch had left to offer treats to the next cart.

“It's no problem. I'll let you pay at Hogsmeade,” Jasmine said.

“Okay,” Harry said, smiling a little.

“So are you guys looking forward to the new school year?” Jasmine asked, putting her snacks in her bag to eat later during the train ride.

“Yeah, Harry and I get a free period, so we will probably just fool around,” Ron said. “And I'm hoping to get on the quidditch team this year, since they'll be needing players.”

“Maybe you should try out, Jasmine,” Hermione suggested.

“Oh no,” Jasmine said, chuckling a bit. “I'm much better as a cheerleader than a player. No one yells as loud as I can without an amplifying charm.”
