Soon to be students moved around boarding the train,finding a seat, and getting settled for the ride to Hogwarts. Amy, a young American witch, with long brown hair and green eyes and pale skin. she wore a black long sleeve shirt with jeans and black sneakers while clutching a red crochet cross shoulder bag. She moved around the train until she found an empty seat and sat down, looking out the window.

Suddenly, a girl with bushy brown hair and bangs came up to her and asks "Have you seen a toad around?".

"No, but I'll help you look" Amy replied, slightly smiling as she stood up with her bag still on her shoulder.

Amy walked beside the girl occasionally asking people if they saw a toad and looking other places. Amy then turned to the girl.

"Didn't introduce my self, hi I'm Amy, Amy Jill Brown" she said as she held her hand out for the other girl to shake.

The mystery girl looked at Amy as she took her hand. "I'm Hermione Granger" she replied as she shook Amy's hand.

They put their hands down as a question popped into Amy's head.
"How exactly did this toad get loose, and who does it belong to?" Amy asked.

"A boy named Neville lost his" Hermione replied.

"Oh, ok" was all Amy said as they continued searching.

They walked throughout the train car looking for the toad as Amy kept an ear out for any croakes from the toad or if anyone said anything if they saw it. The two girls the came across a compartment with two boys sitting in it, chatting. Hermione then opened the door, turning the boys attention to Hermione in the doorway and Amy behind her with her hands on her hips looking in the compartment.

"Have you seen a toad? A boy named Neville lost his" Hermione said as she walked in with Amy.

Hermione noticed the red headed boy with a rat on his lap as he was trying to put a spell on it. She then walked up to where he was sitting across from him by the window and corrected him on it, Amy simply leaned against the wall as she examined the other boy who had his eyes fixed on Hermione and the ginger kid. He was wearing a red sweater with blue jeans and he had jet black hair, glasses, and green eyes. Amy then noticed the lighting bolt scar on his forehead and knew exactly who he was.

"Ah, the boy who lived himself, but you probably must be tired of hearing that, the names Amy". She said with a smirk on her face as she held her hand out to Harry for him to shake while she walked closer to him, looking down at him. Harry looked up at Amy as he shook her hand.

"Pleasure to meet you". Harry said with a smile

"Right back at cha" Amy said as she sat down across from him, next to Hermione as she crossed her legs.

"Holy cricket, your Harry Potter, I'm Hermione Granger" Hermione said. She then turned to the ginger boy. "And you are?" Hermione said, clearly unexcited to meet him.

"Ron Weasly" the ginger said through a mouth full of candy

"Pleasure" Hermione replied with a disgusted look on her face.

"Amy Brown". Amy said as she leaned over to shake Ron's hand which he happily returned.

"Well, you better get changed into your robes, well be at Hogwarts soon" Hermione said as her and Amy stood up. The two girls walked out of the room, only to have Amy come back and said through the doorway "I guess we're friends now, see you there" she said with a wave as she caught up Hermione.

Once her and Hermione where changed into some plain black robes, they sat back down where Amy was sitting earlier. Amy was completely spaced out for the rest of the ride while looking out the window, wondering where that whole thing would take her, and what Hogwarts would be like.

She was snapped out of her thoughts when her Hermione tapped her shoulder "we're here" she said as they both stood up. Amy grabbed her red bag as she was about to step into the next phase of her life.
