Compartment #2

"Potions is one of my favorite classes. 'u'"

"Snape is good at teaching, but he gets really jerky about the points. But, I mainly hate it because it's so BORING.. I think History of Magic might acutally be better."

"I like... well. I dunno if I have a favorite class. Defense Against the Dark Arts it's interesting... but, ugh! In my second year, we had the worst teacher; Professor Lockhart."

"He was hilarious, though. "

"You mean that complete airhead who's now in Saint Mugo's?"

"Yes, he's in Saint Mugo's now, and no, he was not hilarious! He hated me!"

"I think he hated whoever was probably smater than him... And which was probably most people..."

"Yeah, probably so."

"Does the DADA teacher change EVERY year?"

"For as long as I've been here, anyway,"

Devin took a large breath and sighed, "...Have you guys ever heard the rumor about that postion?"

Rachel nodded. "Of course, most people do."

"Do you think it's true?"

"Well, I really don't know. It's a good excuse though about the whole thing with the position. Anyway, do you think You-Know-Who is back? 'Cause, I do."

"Yes, because we all know Harry wouldn't kill Cedric.."

"Yeah..."

"Even though it scares me, I hate having this certainth ought in my head but, what if the Ministry is working with him or something and that's why they're covering up?"

"I have no idea, to tell you the truth... Meh, maybe I SHOULD start reading the Daily Prophet more often."

"It's filled with lies mostly though."

"Oh, I haven't been reading it..."

"I was, but then I got sick of it."

"Oh,"

Amanda looked at Rachel and smiled. "Thanks for letting me sit here. I tried some of the other older kids but they told me I was too ... imaturely young and stupid to sit with them."

"Well, it's no trouble, really. I just don't think it's right people to push off little kids just because they're younger than them."

Devin smiled at Rachel again, "I'm Devin."
