POV: 1st year; Departure

~Mr. Potter~

“Bye James,” Euphemia Potter said, a little teary, “Write every week, ok?” “I will Mum, I promise. Love you Dad.” James grinned and hugged Fleamont Potter. “Bye son. We’ll see you on Christmas break, ok?” “Ok Dad. Don’t worry,” he said, looking at both of them, “I’ll make lots of friends, I’m sure of it.” He started walking towards the train, turning back and laughing when his father yelled, “You better do well in your classes, or else!” “I will!” James hopped onto the train, disappearing from sight. “He’s growing up so fast,” said Euphemia softly, “I’m going to miss him.” “Don’t worry, it’s only for a few months,” Fleamont replied, putting his arm around Euphemia. They both waved to James as the train started moving. “Look, there’s already a boy with him,” he said, smiling, “He’ll be fine.”

~James~

James hopped onto the train. A kid immediately came up to him and asked, “Isn’t this so cool? I wonder what house I’ll be in? I hope Gryffindor! I’m Peter Pettigrew by the way.” /He looks a little nervous./ James thought, and he smiled at him. “I’m James Potter, nice to meet you! I’m going to be in Gryffindor, no doubt!” He said excitedly. They walked over to a window. “There are my parents!” James said, both of them poking their head out of a window and waving. “Come on, let’s find a compartment to sit in.”

~Sirius~

Sirius smiled at his brother, Regulus, once their parents had turned away. They weren’t a very close family, him, Regulus, and his Mother and Father, Walburga and Orion. Other then Sirius and Regulus that was. They tried to look out for each other, but sometimes they couldn’t. That’s just how the Black family was. /Maybe it’ll be better at Hogwarts,/ thought Sirius, /I hope I’ll make some friends./ He climbed aboard the train, only looking back to watch his brother leave. He walked all the way down the train, to the second-to-last compartment. It was empty, so he sat down, putting his luggage above him. A few minutes later, a boy walked in with someone else in tow. The first boy had messy black hair, and square glasses. The kid behind him was a shorter boy with sandy/white hair. They sat down and introduced themselves as James Fleamont Potter, and Peter Pettigrew. “Hi James and Peter, I’m Sirius Orion Black.”

~Peter~

Peter hugged his parents, promising to write often. Then he got onto the train. A boy hopped on right after him. /He looks friendly, I’ll go talk to him./ Peter walked up to the boy, and they both began talking excitedly. Peter was a little nervous, but his parents had told him not to show it, and to be polite. They said that this was an easy way to make friends. And it worked! Peter was a little surprised, but relived. He let the other boy, James, lead him to a window, then to a compartment with another boy in it. /I think this can work./ Thought Peter. A few minutes after, a tall boy with short, wavy, light-brown hair and amber eyes walked in. /He has a lot of scars, I wonder what happened./

~Remus~

“Goodbye Father” said Remus quietly, “Bye Mum.” He said, hugging her. “Bye Remus.” His Mother replied shortly, turning away. “Son, you better be good or I’ll come to bring you back home. You’re lucky Dumbledore is lenient.” Lyall whispered threateningly. Then he, too, walked away, leaving Remus on the platform. Remus sighed. /Why is Dumbledore letting me come to Hogwarts? I’m a danger to everyone./ Remus jumped onto the train right before it left, dragging his luggage behind him. All the compartments were full, except one with three other boys in it. He opened it. “Is there room for one more?” He asked hesitantly. “Yes, come in!” The other boys said excitedly. Remus put his trunk above him, and sat across from a skinny, pale boy, with wavy black shoulder-length har and grey eyes. “Hello!” The boy said, “I’m Sirius Black.” “Remus John Lupin.” he said, shaking Sirius’s hand. The other boys introduced themselves, and they all caught on immediately. /Maybe we will be friends,/ thought Remus, /They don’t have to know I’m a werewolf./
