The whistle of the train blew as the students climbed onto the train. Nesta's first year of Hogwarts has officially ended. She wasn't looking forward to seeing her Aunt Lena and her cousin Carrie again, but at least she didn't have to endure their selfishness alone. She had Lucky now.

Nesta walked towards the trains looking at Morrigan and her Gryffindor pals. She was yelling at them, complaining about how they should've tried to stop Amarantha. Nesta felt bad for them. Especially for Lucien. He wasn't the nicest Gryffindor, but he never had a choice to be himself. Nesta was happy when Rhysand stepped in and pulled her on the train by her cape.

Nesta was now at the door of the train, handing one of the coachmen her luggage. "Remember, Lucky doesn't like cages."

"I have not forgotten miss." The coachman replied with a sweet smile.

Nesta picked up Lucky and placed her in the coachman's arms. "Be good, Lucky. I'll check on you once I've settled into the train." Lucky meowed in understanding as the coachman took her away along with the other luggage.

"Let's go, Nesta!" Nesta turned to see Emerie already getting on the train. She was about to follow her until she noticed Eris waiting for her. She looked back at Emerie. "One sec, Em." she responded, speeding her way to Eris.

Eris smiled as the young Slytherin gave him a hug. "Thought you'd leave without saying goodbye," he said, tossing Nesta in the air a couple of times before putting her down. "I have something for you," Eris said as he pulled out a red book from his pocket.

Nesta opened the book. It was a photo of her and her parents. But this was different. The picture was moving. It was of them waving while her father was holding a baby version of her.

Nesta felt tears running down her eyes as Eris went to hug her this time. "Okay, okay, let it out. It's okay."

"Th-Thank you s-so much." Nesta managed to say, wiping her tears. Eris rubbed her head. "Hey, if that bratty cousin of yours gives you any trouble, just threaten her with a pair of pig ears and a tail."

"But we can't do magic outside of school." Nesta replied as Eris smirked. "Who says she has to know?"

Nesta giggled as she finally got on the train with her friends. She sat next to Emerie while the Bedara twins sat across from them. "Feels strange to be going home after all this time." Emerie said as the twins nodded in agreement.

Nesta only chuckled. "I'm not going home. Not really." Nesta said, confusing her friends. They'll get it one day. Besides, its only the beginning.
