Isaak walked down the aisle, looking for a compartment that didn't seem full. he hoped that Perun would be fine by himself, it was too bad that he couldn't have the ferret be with him on the train and instead had to be placed with all the other student pets in the storage compartment. he walked passed a few students he recognized and he said quick hellos. he almost bumped into the Hufflepuff prefect Grace Goodspeed, and he was glad that he had avoided running into her. he didn't very much care for Hufflepuffs and the fact that a pureblood witch was placed in the house, probably meant that her magic was not as great as the purebloods of the other houses. he said excuse me to the prefect out of respect for her position, but he did chuckle when he heard some of the other students make remarks at her. After about a moment or two, he came to a compartment that was occupied by three other students and decided that it would have to do for now. he entered the compartment and saw that the three ocupants were the Gryffindor Samantha Carlson, the Slytherin Acacia Cornet and another Gryffindor who he vaguely remembered from last year, the name Willow came to his mind and he guessed that might have been her name. he easily recognized Samantha thanks to her reputation with being possibly the nicest student at Hogwarts and making friends from all four of the houses. Isaak remembered Acacia Cornet from last year since they were both in the same house and he remembered what some of the Slytherins had said about her being very manipulative. that wouldn't work on him, and he'd heard that she had an interest in the dark arts. many people believed that all students who passed through the Slytherin house grew up to become dark witches and wizards, but that was just a stereotype created by superstition and the house's history. Isaak was definitely not a Slytherin who had any sort of interest in learning the dark arts. "Excuse me, do you mind if i take a seat in this compartment?" he asked the older students. he did feel a little awkward asking to sit with students who were at older than him, Acacia Cornet was two years ahead of him and the two Gryffindors were in their fifth year. but from the look of Willow, she seemed to be very shy and looked like she wanted to be sitting somewhere by herself. this made Isaak a little less awkward, and it would be odd for two Slytherins and two Gryffindors to be sharing a compartment together, since the two houses have had an age old rivalry with each other.
