• Chap 1:So this is the New Year.

    Standing in Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, I just couldn't help but gape in awe at its beauty. The train, the way it seemed to sparkle when the lights hit it, was almost like a dream. I looked around and saw my old friend Mikey Way was intrigued the same. You see, we're wizards, and this would be our first year in Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry. Along with us would be Mikey's older brother Gerard and his friends Ray and Bob. It took me a while to wake Mikey up from his awestricken splendor. As soon as he noticed me,he did one of his heart melting grins, so wide it was almost like the Joker. "Alice!!! Thought you weren't coming!", he yelled over the bustle of people as we hugged each other. "And miss out on the first day of the rest of our lives? Heck no!!" I yelled out as we loaded our luggage and pets onto the train. I adored school. It and anything else that would take me out of the house, I loved it. I dispised being cooped up all year long. And Mikey was my only excuse to get out that I could use.
    As we walked into the train, we were pushed aside by three boys, one of which knocked Mikey off his feet. "Hey!!! Losers!! Hey, I'm talking to you!!!"I yelled out, throwing my hair pin at the blond boy walking between to giant others. He immeadiatly turned around,face red with anger. "You, young lady, should respect your elders!"he said. "Crabbe! Goyole! Get 'em!"he commanded. As ordered, they picked us up by our shirt collars and has us pinned to the wall. I strugggled, growing angrier by the minute as I saw the fatter boy choke Mike as he tried to squirm out of his grasp. "You should learn to treat people with more gratitude.Y ou should be happy we're not breakin-"
    "Excuse me?Could you please put my friend's brother and friend down before I throw your fat, stupid butts off this train? Oh,I'm sorry,you were teaching them respect Malfoy? Oh, congrats. Shall we make you Prefect?"a voice said sarcastically. Looking over, a wave of relief came over me as I saw that it was Bob, Gerard's closest friend. At the site of him, the boy I guessed was Malfoy ordered his lackey's to drop us and they ran off. As soon as they left, Bob squeled like a little girl. "ALI!!!! MIKE!!! Did they hurt you?"he said, helping us up and going into overprotective friend mode again. They were usually like this. Gerard never liked the idea of Mike hanging with girls unless they were intimate. But I was an exception, I guess.
    Bob lead us down to the compartment where I saw the guys and a stranger sitting with them. Upon opening the compartment door, Gerard nearly killed us with his famous bearhugs. "MIKEY!!! ALICE!!!! Dudes,this is Frank. Frank,this is my bro Mikey and his best friend Alice. Frank here is our fresh meat!"he said devilishly, causing Frank to look at him like he was crazy."Oh!!! Fresh meat! WOOT! And hes a cute one too! Can I keep him?"I said, causing everyone to laugh at the look of Frank's face as his eyes widened in shock.
    "Don't worry. I can't have you. Hi, I'm Alice. What's up?"I said, extending my hand.
    "H-hi, I'm Frank. Frank Iero."he replied, taking my hand cautiously and shaking it. We all sat down and talked. Mostly about the summer. I didn't get to say much. Nothing really happened except band with the guys. I sometimes sang and watch. When Frank said he played guitar, Gerard went ecstatic. Our friend Matty was leaving the band next year, and we needed another guitarist ASAP. At some point later on, we all were fast asleep. But not me. I just sat there, staring out the window, playing with Mike's hair as he rested his head on my lap. This was going to be a year of better things, I thought. I could feel it.
