The train ride was fairly calm, with more failed attempts of Lennon's "flirting" and slight bumps along the way as the train slowly progressed to our destination. 

"Guys?" I ask as I begin to regret drinking 2 jugs of Butterbeer on the way. "I'm going to head to the bathroom now. Be right back."

I hastily get up, cursing myself for not having more self-restraint when drinking Butterbeer. As I make my way to the back of the train, I hear a scoff in front of me, followed by a small whisper and laugh. I raise an eyebrow at the noise, only to see myself face to face with a certain blond.

I sigh when I see the boy, realizing that his usual slicked-back hair was replaced by a new haircut that looked like shiny curtains draping over his gray eyes. I furrowed my brows as I made eye contact with him, unease settling in my stomach. I had never made much effort to talk to the boy, even though we were in the same house. 

"Malfoy," I say, slightly tilting my chin up to look taller, judging by the fact he was practically looking down at me. 

"Draper, is it? You know, you really should make sure you're making friends with the right sort. Gray and that Beauxbottoms girl aren't it." He says with a lopsided smirk, progressively spiking my temper. 

No, Y/n. You haven't even gotten off the train yet. Don't start trouble.

I furrow my brows lower, if that was even possible, wondering why, after two years the boy was making an effort to talk to me if it was to just piss me off.

 "The only thing that isn't the right sort is you and your asshole cronies. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to get to the back of the bus." I state as I draw in a deep breath, shoving past the now wide-eyed boy, making sure to hit his shoulder on the way. 

I finish up in the restroom, making sure to quickly fix the tendrils flying out of my once-neat Dutch braid. "Looking splendid, dear," The mirror chortles as I smile in return. I make my way back to my seat, trying to avoid any more irritatingly smug blondes. 

I finally make my way back into the compartment, a sudden cold washing over the small space, making me shudder. "What the hell?" I hear Lennon mutter as a frightened whimper from Skye escapes her lips. 

The compartment door slides open as the lights go out, and a cloaked hand creeps into the room.

 My body feels almost... limp as my feet begin to tingle, pinpricks shooting up my legs and into my arms. Black fireworks begin to emerge into my vision as everything nearly goes black before a beautiful wolf emerging in a translucent blue color makes the hooded creature disappear, a high-pitched shrieking echoing throughout the chamber.

"What wuzz zat?" I hear Skye shout while my head still felt like lead. 

"No idea," I say in unison with Lennon. 

"That was a dementor. They are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, and they drain peace, hope, and happiness out of the air around them. Even Muggles feel their presence, though they can't see them." A low voice says, leaning against the doorframe. 

"I'm Professor R.J Lupin. Here, eat this. It'll help with the pain," Lupin says while he breaks up a slab of chocolate for us three to eat. "I would stay and chat, but I'm afraid a boy has fainted next cabin." He says with a flourish as he swept out the door. 

I munch on my chocolate, feeling my head get significantly lighter at the second, closing my eyes at the memories rushing through my head. I haven't seen gotten down yet, and the year already is so much more interesting. I rest my head against the window once more, getting a comforting feeling of deja vu as I drift off into a comfortable sleep.
