As the train left the station Hermione started to look for a place to sit in an empty compartment or find the compartment that Daphne and Astoria were in. When she couldn’t find them, she figured that they were probably visiting with fellow Slytherins that came back to repeat last year so she found an empty compartment, put her things away, and sat down to read a book she brought for the ride to school. After a while, the door to the compartment opened to Hermione looked up and saw that it was Daphne and Astoria. "Hi Hermione sorry we couldn’t find you earlier we were just visiting with the other Slytherins that came back this year," Daphne said as she sat down across from Hermione. "It's okay I figured if I didn’t find you guys that’s where you were," Hermione said as she put her book next to her. "What book are you reading?" Astoria asked Hermione wondering what book it was. "Pride and Prejudice," Hermione said looking at her. "Oh, I loved that book. I also finished Romeo and Juliet over the summer. I really loved William Shakespeare." Astoria said to Hermione with a big smile on her face. "Yeah, you should have seen our mother’s face when Astoria dragged us into muggle London to go to the book store to buy his whole book collection," Daphne said to Hermione while laughing about how her mother looked during that trip. "Do you by any chance have some scar cream in your beaded bag or is it in your truck. I wanted to use some on my "I shall not tell lies" Scar. This thing just doesn’t want to go away no matter what I do to it." Daphne said to Hermione knowing that her friend understood what she was going through. "Yeah, I have one in my bag and the other in my truck," Hermione said as she summoned the scar cream from her beaded bag and gave it to Daphne. Daphne took the cream and smiled and her friend as thanks.
