A small eleven-year-old girl pushing an overloaded trolley, racing two boys through King's Cross at almost uncontrollable speeds. At first, all three children were neck and neck, but then a large crowd came out of a train that had just pulled into the station. The boys managed to beat the mass, but the girl got caught in it. She steered through the crowds almost expertly, although she had to slow down a bit, losing her the race.
When she reached the wall that separated the Muggle world from Platform 9 3/4, Lily Luna Potter found her brothers, James Sirius Potter and Albus Severus Potter, arguing over who won the race. It turned out that although Albus hadn't been caught in the first passing of train traffic, he had gotten caught in the next, making James the winner. She called out to them, "You know, I could've won that if that crowd hadn't come out of the train." Immediately, the three of them started arguing technicalities until their parents arrived to enter the barrier.
Lily had recently received her Hogwarts' letter over the summer, making her the final Potter child to go to Hogwarts and the first Potter daughter to attend the prestigious school. Lily couldn't wait. She had been dreaming about her time to go to Hogwarts for as long as she could remember. Now she could finally make her dream come true!
She watched her brothers go through the barrier and then her mum and dad, Ginny and Harry Potter, each took hold of one side of her trolley and steered her through the barrier onto Platform 9 3/4. A few years ago, when Lily had first seen the barrier, she just couldn't believe that behind that wall of brick was a whole train platform. Then again, that was magic for you. Finally, it was Lily's time to go and board the Hogwarts' Express.
Hehehehehe… I just stole the Harry Potter franchise and am now holding it for ransom for the rights to own it!
Wait a minute, what? It's too big to steal!? FML! I guess it's back to the drawing board...
Since I still don't possess the rights to my beloved Potter franchise, all Harry Potter stuff is owned by J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros… but it will be mine… one day...
So now that that's out of the way, can everyone pretty please review! You'd be my best friend if you did! :D
Now for your random fact. Drum roll please!
Voldemort's wand is made of yew. Yew is seen by some as having immense supernatural power and being a symbol of death and rebirth, the same immortality that Voldemort seeks.
Asta La Vista mofos! Lurrrvvvv you all!
