3RD POV

Today was the day! Lyra and Luna are finally going to Hogwarts after many years of waiting and waiting and waiting its finally happening. Lyra wanted this to be a great opportunity with everything that's been happening, her father had been getting worse and worse everyday with her. She wanted out of this house that wanted her to be just like her sister, and she will never be like her sister so her father is just going to have to deal with it.

"This is the day, Ly!" Luna says as they are going out the door she had made the effort to triple check everything before they left. To say the least she was very excited, though Lyra was too. Maybe even more so then Luna. She had a feeling that Hogwarts was going to be her home. A place where she would make ever lasting friendships with all types of people, she was excited to actually be her self in a place that wasn't the Weasley's. She didn't realize how right she was.

"Let's go then, Lu!" Lyra says happily all the while laughing at her sister for being funny. They then worked there way to they're father and they all went to King's Cross station together.

On the way there Lyra saw the Weasley's or at least she thought it was them who else had an all red head family of 9.

"Dad can I go see the Weasley's they're right there" Lyra said hopefully, she kind of wanted to be with Ron and the twins and see what Ron thinks of the train. He is a very funny boy, and probably the only best friend Lyra has ever had, him and the twins.

"Fine, Lyra but, come see me before you get on the train. I want to speak with you."

"Yes, Father." Lyra said she looked at Luna and smiled "I'll see you on the train okay?"

"Okay Ly, See you."

With that the girl went over to the red haired family, very sneakily

"WEASLEY FAMILY!"

The whole entire family except Bill and Charlie of course because they had already graduated from Hogwarts a long time ago. Turned around visibly shaken and scared because someone just screamed they're last name in the middle of a station. Then Ron finally noticed it was his best friend pushing her stuff trying to catch up with them.

"Mum, it's Lyra!" Ron then ran to the white haired girl. Maneuvered around her luggage and bear hugged her like there was no tomorrow.

"Hello to you too Ronnie" She's also the only person who  can call him that too.

"Ron stop hogging her!" The twins both said.

Ron then let her go, and she was bombarded with two more bear hugs each from the twins, Fred and George.

"Fred, George" she nodded to them both consecutively, knowing which one was which by their height as well as their freckles.

"I still don't get how you do that, Ly" Ginny the littlest of the whole bunch and the only girl, besides Lyra her self because she was consider family to all of them.

Lyra pried both of the twins off her and finally hugged the youngest Weasley and said "Well yeah, I just know because I'm smarter than your brother's." She earned a laugh at that statement.

After she let go of Ginny, Molly Weasley pulled her into a hug as well.

"We've missed you, Lyra you need to come to the Burrow more often." Mrs. Weasley did miss having the girl around, I mean everyone of them did from. Lyra getting up at the crack of dawn to make breakfast for all of them or to her causing a little bit of mischief with the boys or just getting Ron out of bed. The white haired girl did not visit this summer mostly because she wasn't allowed too by her father.
