Jim Kirk, Crazy Bones, and an elf kid.
He was having problems working up the courage to run through the wall. He had let Pike go on his way saying that he would be fine to run through it but suddenly he was thinking he was very crazy. Who runs through a brick wall? He was pacing back and forth in front of his trolly when he saw them. A family heading straight for where he was standing, talking about running into the damn wall. He decided to take a chance.
"Um excuse me? Do you mind if I watch you do it first? This is my first time doing it and Im a little nervous....." Jim trailed off as their heads snapped up to him. The woman smiled at him and motioned him over with them.
"Of course you can darling. Its Leonards first time too. Everyones always nervous their first time. Watch us do it and then you boys follow. I am Eleanor, this is my husband David and our son Leonard." And with that she took off through the wall. Jims mouth hung open a little as David winked and went after her.
Leonard huffed out a sigh. "They're always showing off. They need to start acting their age. You wanna go first or me?"
Jim swallowed a little and got a determined look on his face. "I'll go. Im Jim by the way."
Leonard smiled at him. "Nice to meet ya. See ya on the other side kid."
Jim took off at a run.

Eleanor was still chuckling at him when Leonard came through. He looked just as shocked and perturbed as Jim did at having run through a wall and it sent Eleanor into another bout of giggles.
"You two look like you lost seven years off your life. You even watched us do it first."
David clucked his tongue at his wife. "Now El, leave the poor boys alone. If I remember your first time correctly you almost hyperventilated."
"David McCoy, you stop telling stories this instance. Now lets go find the attendant and get your things turned in."
Once they had all the bags turned in Leonards parents quickly said good bye and they both boarded the train looking for a room.
"Hope you don't mind me sitting with you kid. Your the first person I've really met."
"I don't mind, but you've got to stop calling me kid! Were the same age." Jim bit his lip. "Though I do need to find something else to call you other than Leonard. Thats an old mans name."
Leonard laughed as they opened the door to find the cabin already occupied. It was Spock the kid that Jim had met earlier.
"Hey Spock. Mind if we sit in here with you?" He asked, smiling at the other boy.
Spocks lips twitched in what Jim assumed to be an attempt at a smile. "Greetings. I have no objections to sharing a compartment."
"Oh god. Your one of those damn fairy's aint ya?" Leonard asked as he plopped down across from Spock. Jims mouth hung open a little bit. Could you just say stuff like that?
"The correct term is Fae. I am half as my mother is a witch."
"Figures. You'd have to be to go to Hogwarts. Jim how did you meet a damn elf?"
"Leonard! Jesus you sound kinda racist man." Jim plopped down next to him in the seat. "Met him in the familiar shop. Literally ran into him."
"And he didn't hex you till next Sunday?" He looked at Spock with new interest.
"He would currently be sitting right here, as the saying goes. I do not make it a habit of hexing people for accidents."
"Not what I've heard about you green blooded hobgoblins."
Jim groaned and Spocks lips twitched again. "Are you always going to be this clever in your name calling?"
Oh god. They were flirting. Jim wanted to curl up in a ball and die.
Leonard smirked. "Oh I think I like the ones I've picked so far. Im Leonard McCoy by the way." He held out his hand and Spock looked at it for a minute before taking it and shaking it.
"S'chn T'gai Spock. You may call me Spock."
"And Im Jim Kirk now can we all play nice and maybe take a nap before we get to the school?"
Both Spock's and Leonards heads whipped around faster than Jim could blink. They both spoke in unison and it was slightly eerie.
"You're Jim Kirk?"
"Uh yeah.....Oh god is this about that boy who lived shit cause I really had no idea I was famous and would like to pretend Im not....."
Spocked blinked slowly while Leonard just stared open mouthed. Finally Spock broke the silence.
"You do not wish to be known as the boy who lived?"
"Nope. Not like I, personally, did anything special. Hell I don't even remember it."
"Then you shall just be Jim to us." He looked at Leonard for confirmation and the boy finally closed his mouth and nodded his head.
"Yup. Just Jim. But jesus kid I wouldn't go around saying your last name too much then. You'll get all sorts of attention."
"Noted. Ugh I just want to sleep for the whole ride to this place now."
"At least wait till the trolley comes around with candy."
"Did you say candy? Im so awake now."
