Amber's POV
I walk to the Hogwarts Express with my mother (Aurélie L/N), my dad (Andreas L/N), my brother (Alexandre L/N) and my sister (Avra L/N). "Mère" I ask softly. "Tu restes à Londres ou tu retournes en France pour ton travail?" (A/N: I'll leave the translations below)
"Je rentre à la maison, Amber." My mother says firmly. "Mais puisque votre Père va à Hogwarts pour son nouveau travail de professeur d'histoire de la magie, vous pouvez le voir ou utiliser O/N pour m'envoyer une lettre." I nod as my father puts his and my luggage and passes me my owl and cat, Moonlight.
I board the train, wave sadly at my mother and siblings then search for a cabin. I see one in the front, containing a boy with platinum blonde hair, a pug-faced girl fawning over the boy, a skinny boy and a fat boy, and two boys looking at their friend. I feel a dangerous aura for the group so I look for another cabin.
I find another one, accommodating a boy with raven black hair, green eyes and a visible lightning scar, a girl with bushy brown hair, who was talking animatedly to a boy with bright red hair and freckles. I gently knock on the compartment door and slowly open the door. "Is that seat free?" I ask hopefully. They nod so I sit down, putting my cat and owl in the overhead compartment and taking my favourite book (Mon cœur est en feu), and read it quietly.
"I'm Harry Potter." said the boy with the lightning scar after a few minutes of awkward silence. "And this is Hermione Granger," He continued, pointing to the girl. "And that's Ron Weasley. What's your name?"
"Amber." I say kindly, looking up from my book. "Amber L/N. Nice to meet you all."
"What's that book?" Hermione asks eagerly. "I've never seen it before in any bookshop or even Flourish and Blotts. Where did you buy it? What does that cover say? How long have you had it? Did you read any of the Hogwarts' books? What language do you speak?" I was surrounded by Hermione's flurry of questions but I heard it loud and clear like she didn't speak in a fast voice.
"The book is called, 'Mon cœur est en feu'; I bought it in France; The cover says, 'My heart is on fire'; I've had it for 2 years; I read all of the Hogwarts' books and I speak English, French, Greek and Spanish." I say calmly, not looking up from my book. I just realized that there was another man asleep, old and looking a bit rough. I see his name on his suitcase.
"R. J. Lupin" I read quietly. "Seems nice but not trustworthy from the fact that looks sometimes doesn't match a personality."
(One hour later, after Harry and you faint because of the Dementor.)
We arrive at the Hogsmeade Station and I take my luggage, my pets, nod goodbye to Hermione, Harry and Ron then walk outside, looking for my father.
When I find him, he talks to me. "Amber, tu vois ce grand homme?" When I nod, he continues. "Son nom est Hagrid et tu peux lui dire que tu es un transfert et je t'ai dit de le suivre, d'accord?"
I walk to Hagrid and say in a meek voice, "Hello." When he looks at me, I continue. "I'm Amber L/N. My father is Andreas L/N, the new History of Magic professor, and he told me to come to you."
"Nice to meet you, Amber" He says kindly. "I'm Hagrid" (A/N: I have no idea how to do Hagrid's accent, sorry.) "You can follow me and the first years."
(We meet McGonagall and she tells us the things about Hogwarts. Finally, it was time for me to get sorted.)
"Hmm." It mutters in my head. "You are extremely bright, meant for Ravenclaw. Sweet and kind are the calling for Hufflepuff but you have a thirst to prove to your family that you can make your own choices. And a burst of courage and bravery."
Then out loud, "GRYFFINDOR!!!" I smile softly and sit next to Hermione, across from Ron and Harry. Dumbledore talks about Sirius Black, the Dementors and some notices. I softly gasp in astonishment when delectable food magically appear on the table. I eat F/F then when the desserts appear, I eat treacle tarts and a generous slice of chocolate marble cake.
I finish eating then I follow the rest of the Gryffindors, learn the password "Fortuna Major" and go to my dormitory that I share with Hermione, Parvati Patil and Lavender Brown. I take another book that is continuing my favourite book. The book is called, "Mon cœur est en flammes."(My heart is in flames) After a while, I fall into a deep slumber.
(A/N: I hope you enjoyed the first chapter. Sorry that it's long though. I'll try and update on Tuesdays and Fridays. The translation for the French words are below. Until next time, Au revoir, Αντιο σας and Adiós!)
