Serena got up and stretched her arms. "This train ride always takes forever. I need to walk it off." As she left the cabin, she could see that Buck was about to follow her but sat back down upon a "Nu-uh. Stay." from Serena. When she got to the next cabin, she could see the blonde Slytherin girl called Echo sitting with three unsorted firstyears. Serena had never really been that close to her but she was nice to her. Being sorted in Slytherin probably helped a lot. Serena tried to get as many Slytherins on her side as possible to increase her popularity even further. She had to admit, she was more honest to her fellow Slytherins than to those who got sorted otherwise. Serena noticed how Echo was minding her own business by ignoring the firstyears. Serena doubted for two seconds but then decided to walk up to them. "Echo Sullivan, is that you?" she asked with a huge smile. Given, it sounded a lot more enthusiastic as it should. "My, you have certainly grown during summer. I bet all the boys will start to notice you now." Serena took a seat next to her, forcing one of the firstyear students to stand up and remain seatless. Serena then turned to the young ones and forced a smile on her face, or at least a half one. "Hello. I can see you are just starting your first year so allow me to introduce myself. My name is Serena Vermont. If you should get sorted into Slytherin, we'll hang out some time." She then turned back to Echo with a lot more sincere smile. "Guess who has gotten a nice tan during summer? Kjolmar Delacroix! After all these years I am still upset that he got sorted into Ravenclaw. I can't believe he still hangs out with that Hufflepuff whats-his-name. The centaur, I can understand, but... Oh my, listen to me babbling. I haven't even asked you how your summer has been?" Serena knew that Echo could possible feel a bit confused at her sudden interest, but she figured that she could pull it off if she just acted enthusiastic enough.
