Getting aboard the train was a tricky business sometimes because everyone wanted to wait until last minute to say good bye to their parents, after all they wouldn't be seeing them until Christmas time, some even longer. Molly however was all aboard the Hogwarts Express but not on the train properly, she was one of the students blocking the entrance and so had to give her parents kisses and hugs before climbing on board properly and deciding that she may as well just find a quiet compartment for her and her friends to sit, when they found her.

Molly headed down the train and started looking for empty compartments. The train gave a loud hoot, all the doors closed and the next thing she knew, Molly was stumbling forward as the train started to leave the station. Everyone was on board and while Molly had been looking for an empty compartment, she had not found one despite thinking she'd beaten everyone to them, what was worse was the feeling that she hadn't bumped into any one of her friends yet. She really hoped they'd made it on time and were all right.

Spying what looked like an empty compartment, Molly slid the door open, only having noticed through the glass that only one side was empty, she had neglected to check the other bench and alas, as she peeked her head in, she noticed someone sitting in the compartment all ready. Not being one to intrude on someone else through some illogical thoughts of embarrassment, Molly went to open her mouth to apologise, but as she did a second year rushed past and elbowed her in the back.

Not able to hold herself up properly, Molly fell to the floor of the compartment and landed on her right wrist. Her ankles were still outside of the compartment as the door slid shut what with no one to hold it open. Molly winced a little as the door hit her left ankle and then felt someone trod on her foot. This journey was shaping up to be a pretty bad one so far but Molly would try and look on the bright side, after apologising to the person whom she'd intruded upon.

"BLOODY IDIOTS!" Well, before she apologised, she had to yell out something in frustration and she moved her feet from the walk way and into the compartment as she knelt and crawled to sit under the window of the train. "Sorry," she said, "I didn't mean to intrude." She started to blush a little, she did make a fool of herself sometimes and she was sort of getting used to the feeling of being a klutz, but she still felt embarrassed. "I'll be gone as soon as I can stand." Molly looked at her ankle and rotated it, wincing a little in pain. "And walk." She added in a small mumble, mainly talking to herself it seemed.

[LILY LUNA POTTER]

Lily had just sat down in the compartment after parting from her mother and father, and saw out of the corner of her eye that Albus and James had headed towards another compartment. They didn't generally hang out together much at Hogwarts, except sometimes, when stuck together. Well, mostly her and Albus did, but James was a wild one.

She was surprised to hear the train give a loud hoot so early - and looking down at the watch her father had given her, which belonged to the Prewett family she had been told, it was precisely eleven on the dot. All the doors were closing, which Lily didn't notice until the train started pulling off to leave the station, giving a small jolt to the passangers.

Lily didn't have many friends, not really. After all, it was hard being the only daughter of the famous Harry Potter, defeater of the darkest wizard that Hogwarts and the wizarding world had ever seen. Everyone wanted to chat with her, everyone wanted to use her as a springing board towards thier future, and thought that just because she was the daughter to the head auror, that she could pull some strings for them. She wished just once, she could find a friend that wouldn't do that, that would be her friend even though her family was famous.

Almost as soon as she thought it, the door opened to the compartment. She turned to face the person when someone elbowed her in the back. Lily's emerald green eyes widened at that and quickly stood to help the girl as she fell when the door shut on her ankle. And then, she saw, someone had the audacity to step on this poor girl's foot!

She was going to hop off her seat to help her when the girl's voice echoed 'Bloody idiots!' and then crawled to sit under the window of the train. "Oh, no, no, don't worry about me. Please, feel free to join me." she said with a bright smile, though there was something desperate about it.

Then she looked at her, her emerald green eyes shimmering with worry. "Are you alright? I'm not that great with healing spells, but I might can fix it - your ankle I mean." she said, drawing her wand from the folds of her cloak, ready to perform the Episkey spell she had learned from her dad.
