Pippa's summer has been an emotional roller coaster ride, from her Paris trip, Camp Avalon, Quidditch League and to her Japan trip. She's never been this busy in her whole life! Only now. it's both an achievement and a curse because it also involved dealing with lot of emotions that were unfamiliar and new for her so she's not sure how to manage it. It was hard to deal with at once, most of the time it's blowing her mind, quite literally. She sighed as she stopped by the pillar so check if she can spot someone she knew before going in. This is going to be her last year in school, hopefully something good and exciting will happen. But of course one of the few thing she's still looking forward to is joining Quidditch and her Student Leader responsibility. Her stay at Hogwarts had been fun, full of exciting things and she's proud of her accomplishments so far. Pippa brought out the head student badge from her pocket, it was included from the Hogwarts letter she received while she's in Japan. Aimi is also keeping her role as Head Student which brought happiness to the two girls while they're enjoying around Japan. She heard a meow, Pippa looked at her cat's cage and smiled. "Right Timmy? This is our last year, let's make it fun, shall we?" She brought out her cat and massaged it's head down to it's chin.

#5 Run Towards The Pillar At Full Speed

"I'm scared", Sparrow admitted half out loud. They'd been told how to enter the platform: through a pillar. Walk at it. Walk, and it would allow them to pass through the brick wall into platform 9 ¾. Sparrow had already been instructed that they could run, if they felt scared. That way they wouldn't be able to just… stop. They saw someone walk through the pillar's bricks nonchalantly, and they knew that they would just have to trust. Trust in the magic. So they walked away from the pillar, turned around with their luggage cart and looked at the brick pattern. They didn't stop to think about how it all would work. Instead, they ran. They picked up more speed, until they were going as fast as they could. People were looking at them, probably thinking they'd gone bonkers, and then... the luggage cart slipped through the pillar.

Sparrow screamed a word that's not appropriate for an eleven-year-old to use, and let go of the cart, they tried to stop because no no no this was scary, but the momentum kept their body going and they slammed face first into the pil - no, through it. The joy of passing it quickly changed into terror as they realized they were going to fall. And fall they did. They ended up on their stomach on their trunk, arms and legs flailing around.

How embarrassing.

[RPC: Lose your Wand]

 

 

Aimi was in rush with all the things she was carrying. Good thing JB helped her put it on her trolley. She hold on to her puppy Chichi. But she knows she won't bring Chichi because she becames a busy person in school. She gave JB her puppy chichi and said, "Take care of Chichi ok. I care for her sooo much" She pet her puppy and she then started to look for her wand. She looked by her boot and pocket. "Hmm where is my wand? I know I put it here" This is the wrong timing to lose her wand. JB then asked, "Maybe you put it in your bag?" Aimi looked for it but she thinks she lost her wand. She looked at him annoyed because she knows how important her wand it. But it was actually kept by JB to make fun of her. He let Chichi bite on Aimi's wand. "Oh look what chichi found. " Aimi saw her wand in Chichi's mouth. She rolled her eyes at JB and took her wand from Chichi, "Nice girl" She looked back, "You, you like me but you play games with me? Seriously?" She pushed her trolley towards the entrance pillar and went through to the platform

[Lucinda Fairweather]

[RPC Lost Your Ticket]

 

"Where is it?!" Lucy wailed, patting her pockets wildly as tears began to pour from her eyes, "Where is it?  It was right in my hand just a moment ago."  Panic was gripping the first-year and the ticking of the station clock seemed to stab into her chest as every second passed.  What if her dream of reaching Hogwarts was to fail at the first step, all because she had lost her ticket for the train and it left without her.  Her Mother and Father appeared beside her, having spent several minutes trying to work the parking meter to avoid any kind of muggle confrontation.  "Mum, have you seen my ticket?" she cried, dropping to her knees and searching the floor between the bustling legs of commuters and tourists, "It's gone.  It's vanished!"

 

She turned to her bag, unzipping the pocket and plunging her arms in, unaware of the exasperated sigh that escaped her Mother's lips.  She searched on, pulling out clothing from the bag and dropping them to the filth-ridden floor, ignorant of her Mother's knowing smile until the older woman cleared her throat.  "Mum, how can you..." the girl began, before pausing and almost choking on her tears, "Wh...where did you find that?"  Relief pulsed through her as she realised her mother held the ticket out before her.  The knowing look on the woman's face made her pause and think.  "Oh..." Lucy breathed, remembering the conversation in which her Mother had said she would keep the ticket safe until they were on the platform.  She eyed the untidy pile of clothing on the floor beside her sheepishly "Oh yes...".

[Imogen Brimstone]

[RPC 45 - Lose Your Ticket]

 

For such a small person, Imogen sure had a lot of stuff and her mom wasn't allowing her to carry very much, or even push the trolley with all her luggage on it. Despite everything, the girls ribs were still healing mainly because she refused to take it easy but if she wanted to be active again as she wanted, her stubbornness had to be put to the side so she could get better. That being said, Mimi's grandad came to help them all being as he was still relatively young for a grandparent and apparently loved seeing the Hogwarts Express whenever he could. No shade to her mom or aunt Corrie but as they went to Durmstrang and Beauxbatons respectively the poor man never got to see it.

"C'mon grandpa, we're gonna miss it!" Imogen looked over shoulder back at her family who were now just exchanging looks at one and other. She placed her hands in her back pocket and a look of panic washed all over her face as she turned around to see her mom walk up with Oscar. "Mom? Where's my ticket? I don't have it..." Mimi frantically started to check her jeans again as a small whine came out to show her agitation.

[Niccolo Wormald]

RPC: (House)Gryffindor Rocks!

 

Niccolo and his family walked towards the King's Cross station. He can't wait to see the famous Hogwarts Express! He'd seen pictures, of course, but he's sure that the real thing is very different. There are a lot of people walking to and from different directions inside the station he could easily get lost if he wanted to. Niccolo's pushing on his cart, very much excited to reach the entrance to platform 9 3/4. The young boy overheard a couple of rowdy older students shouting 'Gryffindor Rocks!', their carts ahead of them and he watched the scene unfold before him. Briefly, he wondered if that would be him and his buddies after a few years. Maybe! With that, they waited for their turn.

[Bodhi Hillstone]

run toward the pillar at full speed

 

It was that time again! Bodhi was so looking forward to getting his arse back to Hogwarts and seeing his mates. He'd seen some at camp and that had been cool, but now getting back to the castle was going to be on point. He had plenty of plans for that school year, too. Well, at least some very specific ones. When he got to Kings Cross, he and two of his three sisters stood facing the pillar to Platform 9 3/4. He looked at Vashti with a smirk, then Lila, and said, "RACE YOU!" He took off toward the pillar at full speed and had a bit of a head start. He could hear Vashti and Lila coming barreling after him. Lucky for Bodhi, he was first, and he went through the pillar and smoothly onto the other side. The sight of the train was inviting and he was filled with enthusiasm about the coming school year. Going into fourth year meant even more independence than ever before!

[Nora Darcy]

(Run towards the pillar at full speed)

 

What was this, some kind of weird trick? To let them run towards a pillar and fail epically? Nora was not sure what expect from Hogwarts, but it was certainly surprising her and she felt pretty neutral about it. She looked at Ian, who sort of egged her on, and then watched as a few more students ran through it and disappeared. The horse carriages in beauxbatons were so much easy to get into. Nora still felt pretty unsure about it, but after seeing literally kids run through it - her ego had had enough. She made a determined face, and grabbed onto her luggage. "There she goes.." Ian had chuckled right behind her, as she took off at a high speed towards the pillar. It was now, or never. Either she collides against the wall, or she goes through. Thankfully, she didn't collide, and could feel herself run through a passage. Turning back to Ian, she called out, all exhilarated. "I MADE IT!" 

[Healer Jason Wang]

Jason is going back to Hogwarts not as a Healer this time. He decided to shed some light for some of the students there but in the Potions Category. He was more of capable to be a Potions Professor since he works a lot of it in the Healing part. He knows that his nose will be in rest with all the animal smell but this time it will be tortured again with potion smells. But that is better at least it doesnt leave much the smell of the hospital. He and Skylar traveled together in London since Rio and his daughter will go back to beauxbaton. They may be separated for now but anyways he will go home as needed and they stay connected in letters. He looked at Skylar "Will your feet any get faster little one?"

[Skylar Wang]

Trip on Something

 

Skylar is back to Hogwarts and back to his Dad's surveylance. This is just annoying sometimes when your dad likes to meddle with your affairs. Its ok if its just some activities but the problem is... It's not! He even appears in some party or drags him to them. He is sometimes boasting so much about himself that makes him wanna melt. Can he just be an ordinary dad. Skylar pushed his cart when he was called by his dad. He ended up Tripping on Something. He stopped and looked back before going forward to his dad. "Papa, With all these things? You really think I can go faster?" Skylar sighed after wards as he reached where his dad was.

[Healer Jason Wang]

Jason walked towards Skylar and yeah he is right. The kid did have to push all their stuff. He decided to help him with some by carrying most of his things, "That should be lighter. " He watched Skylar push the cart this time. He cannot believe his son is now a 3rd year. He feels old somehow. The problem is he is seeing that Skylar gets more irritable being with him. This also makes him think if he should try not to be so clingy to his son even in school. 

[Spencer Spier]

RPC. Run towards the pillar at full speed

 

 

Wizards have a funny way to do things, huh? Spencer thought that Patricia was just joking when she told her to walk straight to the wall between platforms nine and ten. Did she want her to hit her head or something? But then Spencer watched a kid doing it. Instead of getting themselves injured, they're just gone. Disappeared into the wall. That's how she got it. That's why her ticket is shown on 9 3/4. "If you're scared, you could just run towards it," said Patricia. "Yes, dear," her mother chimed in. Her eyes saw what could happen but her self preservation was holding her back. But she has to do it anyway if she wants to go to Hogwarts. So. Spencer took a deep breath, her eyes straight on the wall. Okay, here goes! Her hands gripped stronger on her trolley's handle as she sprinted towards the wall. As if not wanting to give her a chance to back down, her momentum snowballed as Spencer ran at full speed straight towards the wall. The girl closed her eyes when she's about to hit the wall, though bracing for the impact. But nope, no clanging or banging happening. When she opened her eyes again, she was right back on the platforms. Spencer turned around only to see the wall was behind her then. She did it! Wow! A big grin still dangling on her face as she watched her mother and Patricia materialized the next second from inside the wall. "Come on, let's go. The train is this way." The old woman made a right turn as if nothing happened, leading them away. Penny smiled and went to her side. Putting her arm around Spencer's shoulder, she squeezed it lightly and led the little girl to follow Patricia. 

 

[Skylar Wang]

Throw a Tantrum

 

 

Skylar looked at his dad taking only his luggages away. How many? Only 2 luggages???? Is he serious? He was not happy now. He wants him to go faster when he pushes all the stuff. It is freaking heavy! He ended up stomping his feet and said crossing his arms, "Papa! You can try helping me push instead right." He was so annoyed and throwing a tantrum in front of his dad. "I will tell mom in a letter that you are not helping me ! That you are pushing me around" His eyes were showing annoyance suddenly. He is excited for classes but now his dad was teaching. Can he just transfer to Beauxbaton too with his twin. He finds his dad annoying now even if he loves his dad. 

[Official Amina Li]

RPC: Run towards the pillar at full speed

 

It’s that time of the year again when all the students of Hogwarts will come together in one place – the Kings Cross station, to go back to their dearly beloved school. Amina was one of the few who’s really looking forward to this day every year. It will be her last year in school, it’s a bittersweet feeling just thinking about it. She’s not sure if she’s ready to face the adult life outside the school. Until now, she feels like in her younger teens when she’s one of these newbies who’s excited at the prospect of seeing Hogwarts school for the first time. She stopped her trolley to watch the interact between children and parents. One father and son (Skylar and Jason) were arguing about something, it was hilarious to watch but she did her best not to show her reaction because it’s rude. She’s not even supposed to listen as it’s a family matter. She looked behind her to check if her family’s following her lead. Her mum and dad were talking to each other while Ronin was busy oohing and aahing at whatever caught the young boy’s attention and her brother? Well, he’s in his usual stoic self, what’s new? Her parents and Ronin went into the pillar first and before her twin brother can even follow them, Amina sidestepped him. “Hold it!” She gripped her trolley’s handle and grinned at Raijin, “Race you there, brother!” With that, she run towards the pillar at full speed. Before she reached the pillar, she noticed Pippa on the side, “Hi Pippa! I’ll come looking for you and Aimi later!”

[Cooper Volvok]

Doze off

 

Before Cooper had even gotten to the castle, he had been transported with Ben and his mom to the platform. For some reason they had to go through the London platform and the pillar that led there. Why couldn't they take the floo network? Anyway, it involved waking up super early and Coop hated that but whatever. That was why he had actually fallen asleep on the trip to the pillar. In fact, at one point his mom had to basically just push him along while he dozed on top of his trunk on the little cart. When he did wake up, though, he was totally stoked. Somehow he just woke with a burst of energy and was ready to go! Let's say he was really looking forward to this third year at school!

[Samantha Rothwell]

[Slap someone]

 

Her parents are seeing her off. She was so excited to see the Hogwarts express for the first time ever. Her Uncle had told her loads of stories about it and Hogwarts, of course, but nothing still beats the fact that soon enough, she would be experiencing the same thing first-hand! Sammie and her parents are chattering when someone slapped his Dad's shoulder. The young girl looked up and grinned from ear to ear when she spotted her Uncle. She hugged him, then they talked briefly and said that he needs to go ahead to tend to some stuff. With a kiss on his cheek, she promised to find him later at the castle after the sorting ceremony. She watched as her Uncle used the entrance and then soon after, they followed. 

[Ralph Jaxon Smith]

RPC: Run towards the pillar at full speed.

 

­"Mum! Dad! Come on! I’m going to miss the train!"

 

Ralph Jaxon Smith was finally going to Hogwarts. He has been looking forward to this since he received his official acceptance letter from school. Of course, he was a shoo in with his parents being alumni of the school. He was sure that he is magical because of the number of times that he showed his magical abilities when he was younger. That prep school he went to with his buddies did help in honing his skills and controlling his magic until he can get a wand of his own. And then there was camp! Camp Avalon was amazing and he learned his first ever spell in there which was the light charm. It took him a while to get used to the spell casting fundamentals but he is sure he got it all figured out. Famous last words, if you ask me, but Raph is Raph and he thinks he’s awesome like that. He hasn’t killed any of his friends yet so give him some credit. There are so many familiar faces around him and they were all moving towards the brick pillar between platforms 9 ¾. The muggles doesn’t see anything, of course. They can’t see the students with similar trolleys filled with luggage and cages with owls and cats and toads in them. This is what happens every 11^th of September at King’s Cross and they are none the wiser. ­"Seriously. Can’t you both go any slower?" Raph whined, when he saw that his parents are a couple of feet behind him. ­"I’ll go through the barrier now! If you want to see me off on the platform, feel free to walk faster." With that, she parked himself directly in front of the pillar. With a grin, he started running at full speed towards the solid brick wall but instead of colliding with it, he continued running until he’s on the platform.

[Aina Keller]

RPC: Talk nonstop

 

Aina had been looking forward to this day, the day she’s going to Hogwarts. She looked around the crowd looking for her friends but they’re nowhere to be found. “Moooom! I can’t find my friends, we’re not yet late, are we?” She asked her mother worriedly. Her dad was in business trip together with her older brother so they were not able to send her off, while her middle brother was still abroad. The night before, her mother explained few more things like Hogwarts houses, Quidditch, who was Albus Dumbledore and his history and how powerful he was. She also mentioned about the Ministry of Magic and what they do to help the Wizarding world. Her mom told her she will learn more once she started at Hogwarts which just fueled her interest. For the rest of the night, she anxiously waited for this day to come. And now that she’s here, she can’t help but talk a lot, like literally nonstop. “Moom! Did you prepare my body bag? The one with red hello kitty design? I need that! And the other hand carry where my stuffed toys are included, did we bring that too?” She flipped her hair as she turned her attention to the pillar between Platform 9 and 10. “How does this work again ? How did they charm this pillar to do just that? It’s amazing!” She watched in awe, she may have seen it once before but she’s too young to even appreciate what’s happening. “Mom, look, they can actually go in together, maybe we should also do that, I don’t want to be left behind here! Let’s gooo! Maybe I'll find my friends on the other side.” She helped pushed her trolley while still talking nonstop to her mom that she had to narrow her eyes at her to shut her up. “I’m sorry, I was just excited.” She said sheepishly.

[Official Bea Song]

RPC: Run towards the pillar

 

It was time to leave again, and even though Bea was still shaken up about the accident that had occured in the quidditch match, she was ready to go back to school. She had asked Tae to drop her off though, because she didn't want to travel alone. The prefect badge that had arrived just a few days back was pinned to her luggage, because Tae had insisted so. He had been really proud that she was a prefect, and so were mom and dad when they had been told via owl. Bea honestly just wanted to hide it away because it was so corny. She didn't want to be a show off about being a prefect, she was super honoured to be chosen and just wanted to do some good work and help around. It gave her a sense of responsibility that he didn't have before. "You know..I can take it from here.." She mumbled to Tae as she faced the entrance pillar. "You sure?" She nodded at his question, and he gave another nod and gave her a hug, wishing her good luck for the term. Her brother had always let her be independent, and she loved him for that. "See you on christmas?" She added in a perky tone, before taking hold of her luggage and making a dash for the pillar.
