Sherlock realized that Morgana didn’t like to talk about anything concerning the Tournament. And he really understand her. He also wasn’t interested in take an active part in it. But Morgana probably won’t have any choice unless Professor Boyle would find the truth and, of course, evidences to proof it.
Luckily his question for sweets made the young woman smile a bit. He noticed that she took a look at the jelly beans. But he also noticed that she glanced at the American boy who was blamed by the France girl before. They both were also participants of the Tri-Wizard-Tournament if he remembered right. And at the very same moment Morgana took a look at that boy – He remembered his name from the announcement yesterday evening: It was Shane Hudson – her face darkened again.
Well, the right time for sweets. He bought the Bertie Bott's every flavor jelly beans and gave thanks to the server. "Here, please. These are for you. Maybe this would cheer you up a bit again. Look at them – there are many different colors and everyone has another taste. Give it a try!" Normally it wasn’t like him to talk like that but he felt that his schoolmate really needed solace and divertissement. "If you like this ones you will have to taste my mother’s selfmade cookies. Next time, after our christmas vacation, I will bring you some of them, too. I promise. And do not mind – she always bakes enough to feed the whole school," he continued to talk with a twinkle in his eye.

"If you like this ones you will have to taste my mother’s selfmade cookies. Next time, after our christmas vacation, I will bring you some of them, too. I promise. And do not mind – she always bakes enough to feed the whole school,"
Morgana chuckled lightly as Sherlock managed to crack a second smile in a row from one who rarely smiles at the idea of the sun coming up every morning. She looked down at the Bertie Botts box Sherlock had handed to her, toying with the wrapping among her fingertips before looking back up and addressing Sherlock again, "Thank you. And not just for this," Morgana shook the box of jellybeans in her hand gently, "But for always looking out for me. Even through the school years, although you're a year ahead of me you always supported me through my many struggles." Morgana dawned on him with eyes filled of gratefulness before opening the top of the box. Reaching two fingers of the same hand into the small box, Morgana reeled in a jellybean of a multitude of colors as she plopped it right into her mouth. Only for her facial expression to turn rather sourly all of a sudden.

*Enters from the Courtyard*
The train was packed with so many people, Dray had trouble finding her way through. She shrunk her things down to fit in a single bag, so she'd have more room to move about. Dray was trying to find Ellie but couldn't spot her or anyone else she knew. As much as she liked making new friends, she would be glad when school was back to normal and the train was less packed.
Dray grabbed a few sweets as the trolly past and followed it, knowing it would lead her to someone she knew. She came across a bunch of the champions and smiled, "Hey," Dray didn't find Ellie but Sherlock and Morgana, "glad I found a familiar face and- holy-" Familiar face was an understatement, she had never noticed before. Morgana and Ellie shared a similar if not the same face. "I- Sherlock, am I hallucinating?"

"Thank you. And not just for this," "But for always looking out for me. Even through the school years, although you're a year ahead of me you always supported me through my many struggles." "My pleasure! You know that this is exactly what a prefect should do. And also what I’m always trying to do." He recognized the gratefulness in her eyes. "Well, and that expression is also a reason why I’m doing all that things…," he stopped for a moment when suddenly Morgana’s expression of face turned sourly. Sherlock looked at her a bit embarrassed for a few seconds. "I didn’t mean that face, you know? Sorry that you got…" "Hey," a familiar voice interrupted his words. It was Dray. She was heading over to them. "glad I found a familiar face and- holy-" This time his friends interrupted herself, an astonished look on her face. "I- Sherlock, am I hallucinating?" "That is exactly what I often asked myself, my dear," he joked with her. But then he turned back to severity. "I think I know what you mean," he addressed Dray. "Morgana looks a lot like your friend Elliote – sorry, I mean Ellie." Then he leaned nearer to Morgana and told her: "Morgana, this is Adriana Lopez – but everybody call her just Dray."

"Yah well, as far as that goes..." "I... just... don't know how to work it."
Callum looked uncomfortable at his admission but she found it endearing. Anya tipped her head slightly as she studied him. A good looking guy like him could be going around easily breaking hearts but instead, he seemed to be saying he wasn't even sure how to approach a girl he fancied. "Don't you worry," Anya said, patting his knee. "I'll help you through it. You can practice on me."
Perhaps she should have taken a moment to consider if her last friendly offer might be a bad idea. Having him flirt with her, or, Merlin help her, practice moves on her, wouldn't help her annoyingly lingering crush on him. Then again, maybe she could get it out of her system with some fun, harmless pretending... as long as she remembered it was pretend.
"Hope you don't mind, man it's quite packed out there,"
She was fantasizing about Callum leaning in to brush her hair out of her face, his fingers gently grazing her face in the process when a voice startled Anya from her daydreaming. "Not at all," she said, giving a friendly smile to the boy and girl who stepped into their cabin. They looked familiar and Anya tried to figure why.
"So, hi. You two are from Hogwarts, right? I think you know that place we’re heading to?"
Anya nodded her answer to the first question. "Hogsmeade. I've only been once and for a quick visit. I'm excited to explore the place further." The reason for their familiarity finally clicked. "You're the two who were selected from your school... the, um, Champions," she added, recalling the term. "Congrats." It still felt strange to congratulate people for the chance to face danger.

"I- Sherlock, am I hallucinating?" "That is exactly what I often asked myself, my dear,"
Morgana's forehead wrinkled slightly in confusion as her gaze panned back and forth between Sherlock and the Hufflepuff girl who she already recognized as the partner that the Goblet of Fire had chosen to be by her side in the Tournament. Feeling rather awkward and unsure about the whole situation, Morgana had avoided conversing with Dray until she was certain of the outcome. Yet, here she was right before her and there wasn't much Morgana could quite do about it other than be civil until the culprit that rigged the cup had been caught and she was scot-free.
"Morgana looks a lot like your friend Elliote – sorry, I mean Ellie." "Morgana, this is Adriana Lopez – but everybody call her just Dray."
As Sherlock spoke, the gears in Morgana's brain turned as she thought about who it was they were talking about. Someone...like me? Then she remembered the instance she had with the blonde girl in the Divination classroom. The brief yet chilling kerfuffle from that day had stuck with Morgana for a few days, as not only did the girl have the exact same set of eyes as she did but the electric feeling that zapped her when she was close to her was unsettling. Yet she figured it may have been imagining things and didn't pay much more thought to it. Until Sherlock spoke of this Ellie girl...could it be?
"Dray, it's nice to finally meet you," Morgana stuck her hand out in front of her in Dray's direction, "I apologize for not introducing myself sooner. There was a ... situation that had arisen that had been occupying my attention," Morgana stuttered, looking at Sherlock for a nervous moment before returning back to her introductions with Dray, "But it's being handled now. Who's ready for a butterbeer? Because I need to do something with this edge," Morgana chuckled off the nerve wracking situation as her eyes continued to scan for a seat in the train.

"Excuse-moi! Taking chocolate from a girl, do you 'ave any manners?!"
Silent amusement was immediately back on Coco's face. She knew that her friend was actually at least half-serious about this but she just couldn't help thinking that Cami's sudden outburst towards the boy who had grabbed the packet of chocolate frogs right in front of her, had something cute and adorable. She really wouldn't want to be the one who took chocolate from them.
"I-I'm so sorry! I wasn't paying attention. Here,""My treat, for you and your teammate. It's the least I can do."
"Clearly,"
Coco received the second package of chocolate frogs with just a silent nod and a look into her friend's direction that said Okay, I'm out. We got chocolate for free.
"I'll accept your peace offering now, Hudson, but don't be fooled by my being soft here. You better be prepared for ze lioness to be unleashed from her cage come ze competition. See you on ze battlegrounds,"
At that, Cami earned another look from Coco. She was kind of impressed by her best friend's announcement.
"Silly American boys don't ever know what zey are dealing with when zey cross me,"
"Devastating, sweety, devastating.", Coco joked as they continued their walk through the train until they finally found a cabin with two seats vacant.
Once they took their seats, she couldn't wait to free her chocolate frog when suddenly a nervous acting girl - or was it actually a boy? Well, Coco wasn't quick to judge about lookings as she had a thing for goth-rock stars with a rather androgynous style - closed the door and started a chat with them; or should she say with Cami? Gosh, Cami clearly was a men magnet. Or maybe this was a girl, but with an interest for her best friend for sure. Coco grinned inwardly.
"Hey, hi, I mean what’s up? Everything okay? What was that about these American boys?"
The grin widened - inwardly - as she remained silent, waiting for her friend to take up the conversation. Coco hated small talk.

"Devastating, sweety, devastating."
Cami batted her long eyelashes shut as she nodded along with her friend before they attended to the gifted sweets in their hands. Well, at least, they tried to before being interrupted once more.
"Hey, hi, I mean what’s up? Everything okay? What was that about these American boys?"
Slightly annoyed by not being able to catch a break, Cami molded her lips into a wide grin as she nodded affirmatively at the concerned girl's query, "All good on our front, at least. Az for Shane, I cannot say. He appears to be...how do you say, distracted," Cami chuckled lightly to herself as she noticed Shane and Scarlet whisk away into the depths of the train, "But zat iz none of my business. Zis melting chocolate in my hand, iz my only concern right now," Cami gazed down as her eyes panned from Coco's delectable treat to her own with glimmering eyes of sudden joy before indulging in the chocolate right before the train reached it's final destination. Hogsmede.

A shot of warm air escaped Scorpius's nostrils as he silently grunted in his woeful frustration. Not only was he stuck underneath the seat of his rotten brother and no good friend Miss attitude, but more people were entering the booth. He thumped his chin down on his resting hands on the floor of the train, already excusing his ears from the juicy turned uninteresting conversation that was taking place as he closed his eyes amidst the dimly lit space from underneath the seat, wanting the train ride to be done with already.

"Hogsmeade. I've only been once and for a quick visit. I'm excited to explore the place further." "Great, we could explore that place together if you like," she answered on the spur of the moment. Maybe it would be better to become acquainted with some students from Hogwarts. And – this was the main reason why she suggested staying together at Hogsmeade – she won’t be in intimate togetherness with Shane for all of their time outside the school. It was not that she didn’t enjoy his presence. It was because she started to notice that she enjoyed his presence a little over. Then she remembered the girl’s other words. "You're the two who were selected from your school... the, um, Champions," "Congrats." "Um, and yes, we are. Thank you. My name is Scarlett Stark and this is Shane Hudson. You two aren’t participating in the Tournament, right? What are your names?"

"All good on our front, at least. Az for Shane, I cannot say. He appears to be...how do you say, distracted," Poor Shane. Sirius suspected that their meeting at the morning could be the reason why his old friend seemed to be distracted. He sighed inwardly. "But zat iz none of my business. Zis melting chocolate in my hand, iz my only concern right now," The boy who claimed to be a girl grinned at her words. "Yes, I know. You can’t beat chocolate!" And he also got the hint that this girl didn’t wan’t to be annoyed any more. So he turned to her mate: "Hope you don’t mind if I’d sit down here next to you during our ride to Hogsmeade. My gang started to be too ridiculous for my liking." Maybe he could get to know Cami better if he tried to get along with her firend Coco. It didn’t hurt to give it a try. And perhaps he could go along with them at the town. Could become interesting. He took a closer look at Coco – of course, not too obtrusive. She seemed to be some kind of a gothic girl or something like that. Well, perhaps they could get along very well. Sirius also liked those sort of music and style. But for the rest of their way to Hogsmeade he decided to stay quiet. He didn’t want to annoy the girls. And to be honest he also was excited about that town. It was his first visit, too.

"But zat iz none of my business. Zis melting chocolate in my hand, iz my only concern right now,"
Aaaand dismissed!, Coco thought with another inner smirk while she chewed on the chocolate; her only concern at any time. And just as she was about to enjoy it in final silence, the boy (Coco had just decided the student being a boy), taking a seat right next to her, seemed to just have decided to talk her ears off all of a sudden. Was this one of this trying to get close to the ideal woman by becoming friends with the girl buddy? Uh, how annoying...
"Hope you don’t mind if I’d sit down here next to you during our ride to Hogsmeade. My gang started to be too ridiculous for my liking."
Cute that he was thinking she'd be the better company. "Would it make any difference if I said yes?", Coco replied with a counter-question and a tone in her voice that was so often to make people wonder whether she was serious about something or not. Irritating people - her life task.
And then Coco turned her attention towards the window, watching the landscape passing by as the destination of their ride was getting closer. She liked trains. They were taking you anywhere without expecting you to talk with them.

"Don't you worry,""I'll help you through it. You can practice on me."
Practice... on her? Oh lordy, what did she actually mean by that? Callum tried to stay as calm as he could, but for sure his cheeks blushed a little from only the imagination what she could have meant. No, Callum, don't be a fool. Which girl would offer to practice moves on her only to help him out? Unless... she had feelings for him as well... Nah, if she had, she wouldn't try to help him out dating another girl.
"Hope you don't mind, man it's quite packed out there,", suddenly a voice broke in their conversation before Callum could have said anything else to Anya. Maybe that was better anyway. What would he have said? Oh wow, that's great news! Can't wait to kiss you, pretending you to be her! Or how about the truth even? Awesome! I wanna kiss you rather than her anyway!. And yet another inner facepalm.
"Not at all,"
"So, hi. You two are from Hogwarts, right? I think you know that place we’re heading to?"
As awkward as their conversation had been going, Callum was greatly annoyed by the sudden increase of people inside this cabin. Above all, as he wasn't used to getting spoken to in the first place. So he was thankful for Anya to give in to it first.
"Hogsmeade. I've only been once and for a quick visit. I'm excited to explore the place further.""You're the two who were selected from your school... the, um, Champions,""Congrats."
Oh, not that as well! As if getting chosen to straight walk into death games would need any congratulations. Callum couldn't help slightly roll his eyes at that but then quickly turned his head towards the window to not give Anya the feeling that the eye-rolling was because of something she said. Right now he would have liked nothing better than their train to instantly arrive at Hogsmeade.
And just when you thought this was rock-bottom already...
"Great, we could explore that place together if you like,""Um, and yes, we are. Thank you. My name is Scarlett Stark and this is Shane Hudson. You two aren’t participating in the Tournament, right? What are your names?"
Callum exhaled a sigh, as he turned his face back around to the so-called champions. "I'm sorry, but are you really sure every other cabin is taken already? You two look like you'd want to sit in private, that's all." He tried to make his words sound friendly and accommodating, though not exactly with success.

"Would it make any difference if I said yes?" Okay, perhaps it was a bad idea. Sirius gave her a lopsided sneer instead of an answer and sat down next to Coco. What a weird person! He also turned his face to look outside and kept calm for the rest of their train ride. Maybe things started to roll over him. First that strange meeting with Shane before he got on the train, then his class mates and now his heartthrob’s odd best friend… Not forgetting that he wasn’t chosen for the Tournament! Now his facial expression look a lot like Coco’s ‚don’t dare to talk to me-look‘. Some students still walked through the floors looking for seats but they quickened their pace when they caught sight of Sirius (and maybe Coco, too).

"Dray, it's nice to finally meet you," "I apologize for not introducing myself sooner. There was a ... situation that had arisen that had been occupying my attention," It was obvious that Morgana still was a bit nervous. And Sherlock could totally understand her feelings and thoughts. But when she turned to him for a short moment as if she needed his assistance he gave her a consenting smile and a gently nod. "But it's being handled now. Who's ready for a butterbeer? Because I need to do something with this edge," That was a good cue. "I think we should drink some butterbeer alltogether, too. But I am also sure that Dray was searching for Ellie. We should not stand in young love’s way, don’t you think?," he rose to speak. "Let us look for free seats. We will meet Dray and Ellie at Hogsmeade." While he spoke he gently took Morgana’s hand, and after a smile and a "See you soon" to Dray Sherlock and Morgana went on looking for free seats. He knew that she didn’t like full places like this train. And to be honest he also prefer calm places.

"Um, and yes, we are. Thank you. My name is Scarlett Stark and this is Shane Hudson. You two aren’t participating in the Tournament, right? What are your names?"
"Nah," she said with a dismissive wave. "We're just spectators." She gestured to herself and then Callum as she made introductions. "I'm Anastasia--or Anya--and this is Callum."
"Great, we could explore that place together if you like,"
"That could be fun, don't you think?" she said, poking a finger into the side of the stone silent Callum, who'd also been keeping his gaze away from their company.
"I'm sorry, but are you really sure every other cabin is taken already? You two look like you'd want to sit in private, that's all."
Anya immediately regretted trying to engage Callum in the conversation. She looked momentarily mortified then managed to give a nervous laugh. "He's a jokester, this one," Anya said with another poke in his side, this one of warning. She rested her hand on her leg, her pointer finger lightly tapping its threat to jab him in the side again if necessary. "What he means is that you two seem chummy. Already friends before being matched up for the tournament?" she guessed, setting the bar at friendship as guessing at a relationship that might not be only made things awkward for all parties involved in a conversation.

"Nah," "We're just spectators." "I'm Anastasia--or Anya--and this is Callum." Scarlett nodded her head to give a 'Nice to meet you'.
"That could be fun, don't you think?", Anastasia – Anya – answered Scarlett's spontaneous suggestion while she poked Callum into his side. This two might be good friends as well. "I'm sorry, but are you really sure every other cabin is taken already? You two look like you'd want to sit in private, that's all." Was she hallucinating or did the boy an eye-roll at her? Gosh, either he had a bad day or it was just his usual manner. To be fair to him the blonde girl decided to think it was just a bad day. (Of course, not knowing how closely she was to the truth by thinking that.) But Anya tried to save the situation anyhow. Scarlett liked her way of behavior. Maybe they could get along very well during her time at Hogwarts. Of course, just in case that they would have enough time out during the preparations for the Tournament. "He's a jokester, this one," "What he means is that you two seem chummy. Already friends before being matched up for the tournament?" "Oh, yes. Shane is a true gentleman. I…," she stopped for a moment because she didn’t want to come out smug or arrogant. But then she decided to go on, a friendly smile on her lips. "I’m a model at home and, well, some young men think they should try to stalk me. But not Shane! He always gave me a square deal. He’s this sort of real friend, you know? That one who make you say: 'You have lots of friends but all you need is just a few confidantes'." Scarlett gave Shane a tender clap on his shoulder while she spoke up about his manners. "And what about you? You two are also very close, right?"

The flowing conversation around Shane was nothing but low murmurs in the background of the moving pictures playing in Shane's mind. Memories of what was, between him and his friend Sirius sharing reckless fun through a bond that was rare. Once in a lifetime really...yet, that's what they remained as. Just memories. Solemnly smirking to himself with his gaze still glued to the dewy window, water droplets rolling down amidst the rolling, green landscape did he reminisce in the memories of what was...and what will never be again. Or so he thought.

Shrugging, Callum turned his view back to the window to no longer be an active part of this conversation. Despite his don't-talk-to-me face, there was a hint of amusement seen in the corner of his mouth. The way Anya was trying to plead for him, although he hadn't asked for that, and also her gesturing to give him another jab in the side if needed, was just too cute. And now that he finally had admitted his feelings for her, it almost felt like the most natural thing to feel in her presence. Almost like it always had been there, somewhere deep under the surface.
For a moment, Callum's thoughts had been creating a world on their own when suddenly it came that he felt addressed again.
"And what about you? You two are also very close, right?"
Before Anya could have given an answer to that, maybe one that would have given evidence that this world his brain started to create would never become more than just the imagination of a dreamer who, yet again, had to come to the realization that he got himself in unrequited love, he decided to be the one speaking up first. Either that or maybe just the annoyance about a conversation he didn't feel like having, was what made him turn around with sudden high spirits.
"We're there!", Callum grinned towards Anya. "Let's not waste more time in here. We've got a lot of stuff to do on our tour, remember?" He hoped this time she would be on his side, so to speak.

"Oh, yes. Shane is a true gentleman. I…," "I’m a model at home and, well, some young men think they should try to stalk me.
Anya subtly studied Scarlett upon her revealing that she was a model and could definitely see why. She was very pretty and had one of those magnetic, outgoing personalities. It was the personality part of it that Anya envied. She felt awkward and unsure around people she didn't know. Probably because back in the muggle world, nothing felt permanent so she avoided attachments, never knowing if she might end up in a different foster home. But here felt more permanent, more rooted. She felt a bit more open and at ease, despite still being different.
But not Shane! He always gave me a square deal. He’s this sort of real friend, you know? That one who make you say: 'You have lots of friends but all you need is just a few confidantes'."
Anya nodded, glancing toward Callum and understanding completely. Scarlett put her hand on Shane's shoulder and Anya's eyes shifted to him. He was also sitting just as quiet at Callum, though he seemed to be lost in thought rather than ignoring everyone as Callum was doing. She was tempted to jab him in the side again but figured his silence was better than risking another rude comment.
"And what about you? You two are also very close, right?"
"Let's not waste more time in here. We've got a lot of stuff to do on our tour, remember?"
Anya had opened her mouth to answer but Callum beat her to it. He was already on his feet and heading out of the cabin. Anya turned toward Scarlett with an apologetic look and spoke quickly as she backed toward the exit to keep up with Callum. "Sorry, I made him promise me a VIP tour. It seems he's even more excited about it than I am. It was nice meeting you two. Maybe we can share a table at the tavern and chat over butterbeer later." Everyone ended up at the tavern for a butterbeer so it was a safe bet that they'd bump into them there if not someplace else.
With a small wave, Anya hurried to keep up with Callum.

*** Sherlock enters from Hogsmeade ***
Sherlock was the first student who came back to the train station. He knew that he was too early for the train back to Hogwarts but he decided to wait here because it was a lot more quiet. He didn't need all that noise of busy people around him. Most of the times he liked the sound of silence and loneliness. However he always did his best to get along with other people. When he arrived at the small station he sat down on a bench and took a book out of his bag. He wanted to start diving into it but this time it didn't really work. Normally it took him only a few moments to be absorbed in the story but now he felt like he couldn't even concentrate on the letters written on the paper in his hands. Was it right to let her go? Should I have follow her? Try to apologize or to dig deeper? Sherlock himself was rather left alone when too many emotions flashed through his mind. Morgana most of the times seemed to be a lot similar to him so he tried to convince himself that it was right to give her some breathing room.
"Wanna buy a magical rose?" Suddenly someone stood in front of him and tried to talk with him. He looked up and saw an older woman with her arms full of roses. "Pardon me! Can I help you?" "Wanna buy a magical rose?" She got a lot of roses in many different colors. "Magical? Does that mean they will never wither?" The woman nodded multiple times. "Yes. Want some?" Normally Sherlock wasn't the one who buy things from strangers on the street but one thing captured his imagination. It was a single white rose, the only one left in its color. It reminded him of Morgana. "Mylady, I would be most obliged if you offer me the beautiful white one." There was a smile on the woman's lips, only for some seconds but conspicuous. Probably she wasn't used to be called a Lady. She told him how much the rose was, he payed the price and then she handed the flower out to him. Then she walked away, straight into someone else's direction and tried to sell more roses. "I hope you will like it," Sherlock whispered to himself although he adressed Morgana in his thoughts. Now he still had a lot of time to wait until the others will head over to the train station. He carefully packed the rose into his bag and opened his book once again. This time he managed to become part of the story and forget everything around him...

*** Scarlett and Shane enter from Hogsmeade ***
Scarlett hoped that the girl, Anya, was alright. She barely knew the Hogwarts students but they had talked a little on their way to Hogsmeade. She thought Anya was nice. That was the reason why she was on the fence soon after they had left the place. Was it wrong? Should they have tried to follow the girl? Try to find out what actual happened? It wasn't long before something else happened. It might be a direct consequence of the happening before. Suddenly there were people in uniforms all over Hogsmeade and approached to the students. One of them turned towards Scarlett and Shane. "All students are instructed to head back to the train. Now. Please keep calm and follow the order." Scarlett just nodded and the man seemed to be pleased and head over to some other students. Now she felt relieved that they had already decided to go back to the train station.
When they arrived the platform she recognized that they were the first ones. (She didn't notice Sherlock as a student because he was silently sitting at one end of the platform with his nose stucked into a book.) "Well, that was an unexpected short trip... I'm glad that we've decide to make this trip time well spent instead of just sitting in a bar." She paused a moment and stretched herself intensively. "What do you think about using the rest of this day also for some more useful things?!" It was no real question but rather a rhetorical one. "We can do some sports to keep our boddies fit."

*** Cami and Coco enter from Hogsmeade ***
Cami had remained unusually silent the entire walk back to the train station. Her love life felt more confusing that it truly had to be. First with Staffan, and now this Durmstrang boy that she had no idea who he was. Wait...yes she did! He was to be Staffan's team mate in the Tournament! Oh, why did things have to be this way? Cami slipped into a nearby bench under cover of an awning at the train station and pulled her best friend Coco next to her.
"Do you know who zat boy was? Ze one I bumped into?!" Cami asked Coco, her eyes widened with horror as she wondered if Coco had recognized him too.

*** Sirius and his gang enter from Hogsmeade ***
Just when he had left the pub he met his clique again and hooked up with them. Some of them told him what they had seen. One girl claimed that she had seen Anya running away in the direction of the Shrieking Shack. Sirius remembered what Harry Potter once had told him about this shack but he kept his lips sealed. Who knew if there was another strange thing nowadays...
After a few minutes they arrived the train station. The place started to be filled with more and more students who had to gather here for their premature way back. Sirius spotted Shane accompanied by his beautiful friend. (Maybe his girlfriend? He didn't know - and at the moment he didn't want to ask him although he was curious.) He quickened his pace to enter a place as far away from Shane and Scarlett as possible. The boys and girls around him followed him without noticing his intention. He knew that he should talk to his old friend. And he also knew that it would become more and more difficult the longer he tried to procrastinate this dialog...
Suddenly he felt a poke. One of the boys looked at him. "Are you okay, Em? You're so quiet." "Um, yes. Everything's fine," he answered and started to be a part of his friend's conversations.

"Well, that was an unexpected short trip... I'm glad that we've decide to make this trip time well spent instead of just sitting in a bar."
"It was an adventure, I'd say," Nodding in agreement, Shane stood beside Scarlet on the platform as students began to trickle in from being escorted there. Student caused kerfuffles ending field trips early was not unheard of from where Shane and Scarlet were from. He knew just how much more magnified mischief can become when away from school grounds. He wished well for the students involved and didn't bother to think much more on the matter.
"What do you think about using the rest of this day also for some more useful things?!" "We can do some sports to keep our boddies fit."
"Hmm, ya know, that's not a bad idea. I could definitely go for a run...-" Shane shifted his gaze slightly as he had caught someone from the corner of his eye zoom by in the distance, as if they did not want to be seen by them. He turned his head to catch the back of the head of Emily. Shane sighed inwardly, knowing he did not need the drama right now. But he would confront her later, "...Hey, we could test drive one of those new potions we grabbed from the shop during practice, what do ya say?" Shane suggested, waving the shopping bag in his had upwards.

*** Morgana enters from Hogsmeade ***
Standing in the middle of the station, Morgana's eyes darted around like a lost puppy. She couldn't believe her luck, to be reunited with her potential twin sister only to get accidentally separated amidst the crazy mob of students. Scanning the crowd, she couldn't find Ellie or Dray anywhere in sight. She continued to stand in one spot and look around the crowd until she found someone familiar. That's when her eyesight landed on Sherlock talking with an older woman. Panic started to rise inside of Morgana's stomach, as she felt so embarrassed for what happened earlier in the tea shop. He was a good friend, and he didn't deserve the stupid antics. And she didn't deserve his kind and gracious help. Yet again, he was a good friend. And she knew that she would have no choice but to face him. Letting out an audible sigh, Morgana chose to rip the band-aid off and approach him.
"Excuse me," Morgana walked right up behind Sherlock and sheepishly poked him on the back of the shoulder, "Is the seat next to you taken?"

"It was an adventure, I'd say," That was one of Shane's trademarks. And it was one of the reasons why she thought that he was a good friend. He always tried to spread positive energy.
"Hmm, ya know, that's not a bad idea. I could definitely go for a run...-" But then he acted somehow strange. It seemed to her that Shane tried to change his position in order to avoid somebody's eye contact. But she remained in silence. Finally her friend might be satisfied with his result. "...Hey, we could test drive one of those new potions we grabbed from the shop during practice, what do ya say?" Scarlett kept silence a few moments longer and thought about his suggestion. "Well, at least it might be better to test these items. Luckily we bought enough, I think. So - okay, let's do that!" She gave him a mischievious grin and a wink. "But we better watch out that no one will catch us..."

"Excuse me," the sound of a familiar voice and a soft poke on his back suddenly forced him to get back into reality. "Is the seat next to you taken?" "Morgana! Now you have got me there. I am sorry, I did not see you approaching." He made an appealing gesture with his hand to invite her to sit down next to him. "This seat is reserved for you, my dear."
Always trying his best to appear like the quintessential English gentleman he waited until Morgana had sit down on the bench before he continued to talk. "Are you okay? Please do not mind me but I have to admit that I was worried about you. I know that everything needs its time. But still you can be sure that I am always there if you need someone to talk or just a shoulder to lean on. This is my promise to you, Morgana. Please, promise me that you will never forget that." He looked very intensively into her eyes almost as if he wanted to hypnotice her. Besides he closed his book, put it on the bench and took one of her hands into his ones.

Coco could be called the opposite of an empathic person. Maybe not exactly the opposite but surely someone off that road. However, it had always been different with Cami, especially since, usually, she was one of these chronically talkative persons, in nothing but good ways, of course. So the fact that her bestie had been quiet this entire walk back to here was very suspicious, even in Coco's eyes. She had no intention to start a conversation herself, though, at least not before they would have found a place to settle, with fewer people around. Eventually, they did. Thank goodness! Coco was really having a hard time with her average-human phobia right now.
"Do you know who zat boy was? Ze one I bumped into?!"
Coco needed a short moment before the penny dropped, but once it did, a wide grin was suddenly spreading across her face. "Uh, dunno, but... I sense some vibes here, hehe." Well, not that she could blame Cami for being over, or at least temporarily forgetting that Ken dude, after Mr. Brightside with the impressive pack of muscles had entered the stage.

"But we better watch out that no one will catch us..."
"And if they do, then you can just dazzle them with your irresistible charm," Shane threw his head back over his shoulder to give Scarlet playful, sassy grin before breaking into a light chuckle. He always admired his friend and how she had a certain way with others. An undeniable national treasure of Ilvermorny, he would say and poke good fun at her popularity. Though, he knew that she deserved every bit of attention she got. To Shane, Scarlet was a remarkable witch in every way.
