Artemis seated herself on the bank of the lakefront, staring out over the serene water. The day's work had taken it's toll, and the tiny first year began to feel the effects.
A dim misery had settled on her. Everything was wonderful at Hogwarts, but it was human company that she missed the most. Bess and Connie never spoke to her, lest she embarrass them in front of their friends. Kida had been nice, but she had her cousins to deal with. What did she know about Kida, anyway?
She missed her mother dreadfully, and she was thousands of miles away from her. Charing Cross seemed a lifetime away. A tiny tear crept out of her pixie eyes. Artemis took a great,angry sniff at her foolishness. She felt like cursing the tear away, but she knew no curses anyway. Just one, good hex.
Artemis lifted her head and stared at the sky. There was no-one there for her anymore. She was on her own.
