All Abroad

Athena looked around anxiously. She did not wish to start another term at Beauxbatons, although she did miss Lance. All she wanted was to be homeschooled but Papí Capulet didnt like that. he thought it was a much better idea for her to attend Beauxbatons. Beauxbatons? What kind of a weird name was that really?

She sighed loudly and crossed her arms. Not a single known face were the eye could see. perfect Athena thought and sighted once more. But underneath the cold, upste side, she really was just scared. One time had she been on, only to find out that no one was home. And then she hadn't went back, was it weird to miss a family that didn't care? Most likely.

''Watch where you're going, freak!!'' Someone spat towards her. Athena had just droven over a girls foot with her trunk. Of course she didn't mean to run over someone's foot, although she appreceated the irony of the event. With a sheepish nod towards the girl she kept on moving, entering the huge carriage.

She shoved her trunk violently into the trunk rank, in the only empty compartment and cursed quietly to herself as she settled back.

Lucille looked up blearily from the book she was reading at the girl who had just walked into the carriage. She had taken a seat across from her with a cross expression on her face. Lucille blinked at the girl and sighed softly.

"Okay, Luce," she thought. "Remember what Dad said: Try to make friends."

Lucille had always been a shy person at heart, an attribute her sister had constantly made fun of, but she knew that going to Beauxbatons without having at least made an impression was probably not a good idea.

The other girl was obviously a lot older than her, which didn't boost her confidence either. Lucille was a first year so maybe talking to this more experienced girl was a bad move. Either way, Lucille steeled herself and said softly, "Umm... miss?"

When the other girl turned, Lucille nearly stopped talking. Instead, she went on quietly, "Uh... hi, I'm Lucille Starbursts."
