An Annoying Girl.

"Do I really have to wear this Kreacher?" Loki asked looking down at the expensive three-piece suit he was wearing. "This doesn't look that good. Are you sure this is right? Wouldn't something green, violet and pink look better?"

Kreacher placed his hands on his face and *sighed* in frustration but then looked up at Loki with a sagely smile and said, "If Master hears a single complaint about his clothes, Kreacher will hang his own head on the wall."

"Hmm…really? In that case alright." Loki nodded deciding to place his trust in Kreacher since he was so sure.

Stepping out of the room, Loki walked professionally towards the main door.

But as he looked back at the entire house from the inside he felt a little emotional, especially as he looked at the basement.

His gaze then paused at the portrait of Walburga that was hung up on the wall in between the stairs. Loki saw her pour herself some tea and sip on it elegantly.

The sadness in his eyes was clear, yet he firmed his heart and closed his eyes.

'You can do it Loki! You've got this.'

"King's Cross right?" Loki asked Kreacher.

"Yes, Master. Your hand please."

Loki held Kreacher's hands while Kreacher held Loki's trunk and in the blink of an eye, they vanished from the hallway.

Opening his eyes, Loki found himself in front of an ancient-looking red train yet he found himself captivated by it.

'Is this it?'

'The start of my inevitable journey to greatness?'

Loki looked beside him for Kreacher, but he had already left. So Loki whispered a thanks that was lost in the noise of the bustling station.

Tugging at the trunk, Loki found himself unable to lift it with ease so he looked around a little and pulled out the wand from his pocket.

"Wingardium Leviosa." Loki mumbled with a swish and flick.

The trunk lifted a little and Loki was glad that he'd practiced the spell before.

'This is a lifesaver.'

With the trunk as light as a feather, Loki waltzed into the train while holding it, walking with pride in his step.

As he searched around the train compartments for any empty seats, Loki reached the start of the train just behind what he guessed was the prefects compartment.

'Huh. Is this the only empty compartment? Maybe it's because I'm a little late.' Loki thought as he pulled out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was 10:45 AM.

'Eh. As long as no one gets into my compartment it'll be fine.'

Entering the compartment Loki made sure to stuff his trunk at the top and he finally relaxed into the luxurious seat.

'Isn't it a little stuffy in here? How do the windows open?'

After figuring out the window, with a smug smile, Loki turned his attention to the matter most urgent.

'Now to check out my spoils.'

With a wave of his hand, Loki pulled out a bunch of notes and coins from his pockets.

'Ha! A total of eight pounds and two galleons. A fruitful harvest.'

'Poor kids, I'm taking their pocket money.'

'Especially that blond kid…'

'Haha! As if I will feel bad! Serves him right for talking down on me like that in Madam Malkin's store. And I have a better plan on how to use it anyway!'

Loki giggled to himself like a madman but then he heard a sharp *click* and stopped.

"Huh? Who's there?" Loki asked looking at the door that slid open.

"You're not supposed to lock them! That's against the rules!" A girl with wild bushy hair and buck teeth stood there.

'And I don't like her already.' Loki concluded.

"Did you not hear me!? I said you're not supposed to lock it! The prefect's compartment is right here! It's good that I caught you before them! Otherwise, you would've gotten scolded."

The little girl with bushy hair waltzed into the compartment with her trunk and sat down opposite to Loki with her arms folded and her cheeks puffed.

"That seat is taken." Loki said in a bland tone.

"I don't see anyone else here." The girl argued.

"That's because they were going to arrive a little later."

"It's alright, I came here first and there is no rule in the book that says seats can be reserved."

"You don't have a lot of friends do you?" Loki finally snapped.

"It's not like you have any!" the little girl snapped back.

"Ha! What do you know! I have friends, dangerous ones. Did you know my last friend caused two people to die simply by waving his wand a little?"

"WHAT!?" The little girl screamed.

"Yes and then he resurrected them too!"

"HOW!?"

"Exactly, so it's better you leave now. Or I'm going to tell him about you."

"Hmpf. As if!" The little girl said, clearly annoyed. She assumed Loki was just telling tall tales to make her leave.

Loki sighed lightly and closed his eyes.

'Damn, not even Professor Snape scares her. But well, I guess it's only fair, since half of his aura comes from his billowing cloak, something I don't have.'

"Why did you keep your money out?" Loki suddenly heard the little girl speak and opened his eyes.

"Why does it matter to you?"

"Fine. Keep your secrets." The little girl said and pulled out a book from her trunk and began to read.

Satisfied with the result Loki politely went back to arranging his money.

The train soon started and Loki found himself with nothing to do.

'What is she reading?'

'Hogwarts a History By Bathilda Bagshot?'

'Didn't she also write a book on our list? Wasn't it something like a History of Magic or something?'

'Eh…nerd. She'll surely end up in Ravenclaw.'

Loki with nothing to do stared out the window and began to look at the passing scenery. Gradually Loki spotted the girl's reflection in the window and began to try and challenge himself to read the the mirror reflection of the book she was holding.

But suddenly he found the girl turning to look at the window.

"Why are you reading my book?" The girl complained.

"What? I was looking outside!" Loki tried to reason.

"I know you're looking at the reflection of my book and trying to read it!! Don't annoy me!"

"....what?" Loki gave up arguing with the girl and closed his eyes to lean back on the seat. 'Hmpf. It's as if she has a problem with everything in the world.'

'Surely now she won't have a probl-'

"Don't sleep! It ruins my mood to read!" The girl complained again, causing Loki to furiously glare at her.

With nothing left to do Loki pulled out his wand.

"Wingardium Leviosa."

His trunk slipped out of the top shelf and floated down perfectly, once it landed on his side of the seat, he stood up and flipped it open.

After which he pulled out a book from the trunk and closed it, sending it back to the top with the same levitation spell.

Sitting in his seat Loki finally relaxed again as he began to read the book he had just pulled out. There was no cover or name on the book and it appeared to be a personal handbook of sorts, yet Loki read it with deep focus.

'Ha! At least now that I'm reading, she won't have any com-'

"How did you do that!?" The little girl shouted once again.
