     Charlie and I found a compartment, I put my owl to the side as Charlie put our things in the overhead compartment. 

     "So," Charlie said.

     Well, this got awkward really quickly, "So what your favorite color?"

     "Blue," he said, "Yours?"

     "I don't really have one but if I had to choose then I would go with lavender. 

     "How do you know Aunt Asterope," Charlie asked?

     "She is my uncle's friend," I said.

     "Oh, she is a friend of my mother's too," Charlie said shortly.

     The was a knock on the compartment door. It was the pink-haired girl from earlier. I let her in and she bounced to her seat.

     "Wotcher, I'm Tonks," she introduced and her hair turned a lemon yellow.

     "Wow," I said shocked.

     "You're a Metamorphagus," Charlie asked amazed.

     "Yes, only my hair can change color," Tonks said.

     I guess I got my answer of what a Metamorphagus is.

     "That's so cool," Charlie said.

     "Is that an owl, hopefully, he doesn't eat my rat, Einstein," Tonk said excitedly pulling out a rat.

     I scrambled away from it and ended up in Charlie's lap, "Get that away from me!"

     Tonk laughed at me, "Wot, you don't like rats?"

     She brought the tail of the rat near my face, I squealed hugging Charlie tightly not letting go. Tonks got up and came near me with the rat in her hand but she tripped over her feet and fell on the floor with a thud.

     "Ouch," Tonks said glaring at Einstein.

     Charlie chuckled, "I hope Einstein is okay."

     Tonks glared at him, "Help me up!"

     "First get that thing away from me and then I'll help you," I said staring at the rat.

     The rat wiggled a little as if taunting me and I screamed jumping off of Charlie's lap and climbing to the overhang compartment that had our luggage. Then I saw a spider up there.

     "Can't this day get any worse," I said afraid of the spider?

     I was scared of frogs, big time, one jumped on my foot once and scared me to death and since then I have been afraid of them. Rats, well they are, I don't even need to explain. Spiders and other insects and bugs, well I'm sure most people will agree with me.

     "The rat is gone," Tonks yelled.

     "Good," I said and let myself fall from the overhang thing before the spider can reach me, I ended up landing on Tonks.

     "Your heavy," Tonks said pushing me off of her.

     "Excuse me," I yelled jokingly offended. "Wait, where is the rat!?"

     "Right here," Charlie said holding it up teasingly.

     "Fine, hold the rat and get rid of the spider up there," I said pointing to where I last saw the spider.

      "What is all this noise about, just because you are first years doesn't me that you can make so much noise," a brown-haired boy with brown eyes.

     "And you are you, you barely look older than us," Tonks said with attitude.

     "Felix Rosier, the only son and child of Evan Rosier," he stated proudly.

     Felix Rosier, what that doesn't make sense. The conversation that my grandma and mom had had something to for with Rosier but I don't remember clearly as it was in the night and early morning and I was tired but excited and distracted by Hogwarts. 

     Tonks laughed at him, "Your father went to Azkaban and there has been a rumor that he was killed by Mad-Eye Moody."

     "My father isn't dead, he is hiding and you will never find him," Evan said covering up.

     "Then he is a coward," I stated.

     "And who might you be," Felix Rosier said with narrowed eyes.

     "Delilah Solace, before you go on about me being a muggleborn, I'm not, my father was a wizard and my Aunt was too," I said with narrowed eyes feeling the need to be proud of something.

     I do feel the second-hand embarrassment, don't worry. 

     "Whatever, your only a half-blood then, I'm a pureblood," Felix said smirking.

     "Your ignorant you know that," Tonks said pointing a finger at him.

     "Go ahead and call me ignorant, crazy-haired lady, oh wait I know you, you're the daughter of the disgrace, Andromeda Black, I know who you are, your Nymphadora Tonks," Felix said smirking.

     "Oh you did not," Tonks growled jumping at him, I didn't even hold her back, like the people that do, don't you want to see some action?

     Felix sidestepped so Tonks fell on the floor, "Dora, Nymphadora, Dora, Nymphadora!!"

     I couldn't take him bullying Tonks and punched him in the jaw. I was going to do Aunt Aster's favorite move which was 'kicking theme where the sun doesn't shine' but right now didn't feel like the right time.

     "Did you just punch me," Felix said with narrowed eyes?

     "You only a 2nd year, leave us alone," Charlie said.

     "A Weasley of course," Felix said rolling his eyes and stomping out of the room.

     "I don't like him, I think he is a brat," I said rolling my eyes the same time Tonks threw her shoe at the back of his head.

     "I'm warning you," Felix said pointing at Tonks.

     Tonks grabbed her shoes, tripped Felix, stuck her tongue out, and slammed the door of the compartment, and sat down as if nothing happened.

     "So Tonks is your last name," I asked?

     "Yes but still call me Tonks, I hate my first name, only my parents can call me Dora, Only Castor, Pollux, and Alsephina can call me their weird nicknames such as Nympharella, Tonky, Tutu, and Nymphy," Tonks said listing off everything we couldn't call her.

     "Tutu," Charlie said laughing.

     Tonks looked embarrassed, "Alsephina calls me that!"

     "Well I'm going to call you Nymphagator," I said giggling.

     "Ew, that's disgusting," Tonks said.

     "I'll come up with something better okay," I said laughing.

     "What your owl's name," Charlie asked out of nowhere. 

     "I actually only got her this morning so I don't have a name for her yet," I said smiling.

     "I know, she can be Mrs. Einstein," Tonks said referring to her rat and my owl.

     "You did hide that rat away from me right and no she will not be Mrs. Einstein," I said.

     "Yes, Einstein is in my pocket," Tonks said as I looked at the big lump that was in her pocket.

     "Owlbert Einstein," Charlie joked.

     "No," I said crossing my arms. "I'm going to name her Remo Griffin Solace!"

     "Does she really need a middle and last name," Tonk said shaking her head smiling at me.

     "Uh yes she does," I said a matter of factly.

     The horn of the train blew.

     "That means that we are close to Hogwarts," Charlie explained, "We have to go change into our robes."

     "I saw the bathroom on my way here, let's go, Delilah, Charlie you can change in here," Tonks said dragging me out.

     Tonks and I changed in the bathroom, it was very crowded with almost all the girls in here. Tonks and I wanted to get back to the compartment but then decided that listening to the gossip couldn't hurt. We didn't get much out of it besides who the hot boys were and the scariest professors. 

     "Where were you both," Charlie said worriedly when we got off the train.

     "In the bathroom duh," I said. 

     "I don't understand why girls spend so much time in the bathroom," Charlie said groaning.

     "First yers over 'ere," I heard a loud voice boom.

     "Whoa, who's that," I said looking at the giant man with a bushy beard.

     "I know him, that Hagrid, he is the gamekeeper, Keeper of Keys and Grounds of Hogwarts," Charlie said waving at him.

     "Ello Charlie, how yer twin brothers," Hagrid asked Charlie.

     "Getting in trouble all the time," Charlie said chucking.

     "Good to 'ave ya here, 'ope yer like yer brother, Bill," Hagrid said patting him on the back and then going back to explaining that 4 per boat.

     Charlie, Tonks, and I got in a boat with another boy, he looked at us nervously.

     "I'm Delilah, and this is Tonks and Charlie," I introduced.

     "Ben Cooper," he said shyly.

     It was very quiet throughout the boat ride, Ben was very shy. When we were almost there, tentacles shot out of the water, everyone gasped.

     "That's the giant squib," Hagrid explained.

     We made it to Hogwarts castle, it was magnificent. Waiting for us was a strict-faced woman with emerald green robes.

     "Welcome to Hogwarts, I am Professor McGonagal, deputy headmistress and your Transfiguration teacher," she said with a small smile, "The start-of-term banquet will begin shortly, but before you take your seats in the Great Hall, you will be sorted into your houses. The Sorting is a very important ceremony because, while you are here, your house will be something like your family within Hogwarts!"

     The students started whispering excitedly when ghosts flew by giving us a dance. Many people screamed in the beginning but laughed along with the ghosts in the end. 

     "Okay now, everyone form a line and follow me," Professor McGonagall said ignoring the ghosts.

     We stood in a line as she called everyone's names to get sorted, we had to put a hat on and it decided our houses.

     McGonagall yelled the first student's name, "Abbott, Aubrey!"

     The hat yelled, "HUFFLEPUFF!" The Hufflepuff table cheered for their new member.

     "Cooper, Ben!"

     Ben stumbled to the stool and sat down, after 5 minutes the hat said, "GRYFFINDOR!"

     After a few more students were done, "Haywood, Penny!"

     She was also in Hufflepuff, then was Rowan Khanna who ended up in Ravenclaw. It was almost at the letter S.

     "Snyde, Merula," was next, she had an ignorant smirk on her face.

     "SLYTHERIN," the hat yelled.

     "Solace, Delilah," Professor McGonagall yelled.

     I nervously walked to the stool and put the hat on as it talked in my head, I got a little scared.

     "Where should I put you, Slytherin would suit you well, the same traits as your father...but what's this, you have bravery, Gryffindor would suit you too...hm...I know...," the sorting hat said in my head.

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

     What house do you want her to be in, I'm stuck between Slytherin and Gryffindor?

     If in Gryffindor then she can be with Charlie and be strong when her father comes back and well if you haven't figured it out, Felix Rosier is her brother.

     If in Slytherin then she can connect more with Felix and they have a sibling bond and follow his father and make him proud when he finds out and then betrays him.

     I changed some things in the prologue so Naomi had Grace when she was 16 and Will when 22. Grace had Felix at 17 and Delilah at 18. Will is 12 years older than Delilah and Felix is 10 months older than Delilah.
