Kate heaved her heavy trunk down the corridors of the Hogwarts Express and found herself an empty compartment to sit in.
Sighing, she plopped down on one of the seats stroking the tan fur of her beloved cat, Lucy.
Kate couldn't wait to get to Hogwarts, it was a big adventure for her, she'd never been to a boarding school before. Thinking she was completely normal, the first eleven years of her life had been fine, happy and carefree. But now, she was a witch, a muggle-born witch. She was nervous to if she would make any friends, since she'd heard rumours that they didn't like the muggle-borns.
Kate cuddled Lucy into her chest. The cats fur was comforting and soft, reminding her of home.
Leaning back in her seat, she peered anxiously out the door, wondering if anyone would be polite enough to come join her.
