Chapter 1 Hogwarts Express
Harry struggled to keep up as Hagrid trotted to the platform at Kings cross. He has had a very confusing day as it is , he found out his parents were killed by an evil wizard ,he found out he himself was a wizard and he bought all his school supplies in a hidden place called Diagon Alley. "Okay Harry this is were I leave ye'h " said Hagrid as he stopped at platforms nine and ten, "All ye'h got ter do is run strait at the wall and you'll be right on the ye'h soon." He grunted and left in a blink of an eye .Harry did what he was told (but rather reluctantly) and fell strait through the barrier and emerged to see a brilliant scarlet steam engine bearing the words "Hogwarts Express". Harry heaved his trunk onto the train and then left Hedwig , his snowy owl with the other school owls and found an empty compartment. Soon a blonde, pointed faced boy joined him in the compartment and introduced himself as Draco Malfoy. "I want to be sorted into Slytherin house like my family " said Draco "My father would kill me if I'm in Hufflepuff ,a bunch of dunderheads if you ask me." "What other houses are there ?" Harry asked . "Oh , I forgot you were raised by muggles" he drawled "There are four houses you see, Slytherin,Ravenclaw,Hufflepuff and stupid Gryffindorr. Gryffendorrs are a disgrace to our kind. " " I bet I'm in Gryffindorr." Said Harry . "Nah," said Draco "You'll hopefully get a good house like Slytherin.".
Then a plump old witch came buy with a cart full of sweets and Harry who found he now had money that he had inherited from his parents, offered to buy Draco some ,but he said he would buy his own.
So they each bought a bit of everything and swapped what they didn't in particular felt that his Bertie botts every flavor beans had a bit too many flavors ,because he nibbled int a tan one that turned out to be pig they had plowed through all the chocolate frogs ,licorice wands and cauldron cakes the Conductor imformed all the passengers through an unsighted intercom that they would be arriving at Hogwarts in five minutes, so he and Draco put on their school robes and talked about how they would get sorted , Draco said he'd heard from a cousin it was some kind of test ,Harry was unnerved by this because he had no intention of making a fool of himself infront of he had no time to linger on this for the train had stopped and they had started to get off the emerged onto a cold platform and heard Hagrid yelling "Firs' years! Firs' years this way please!" The first years all followd Hagrid down to a small dock and they got into small boats and they pushed themselves to a sort of cave where there was a small port and a pair of enormous wooden doors that Hagrid pulled open to reveal a magnificent entry way and a witch lead them into the Great Hall where Harry expected they were to be sorted .The witch then brought out a shabby wizards hat and suddenly started to call out names and instructing them to put on the hat. Harry soon realized the hat would be sorting them and they wouldn't be tested. When Draco was called he got his wish at once the hat had barely touched hid head when it shouted "Slytherin!" Harry had no sooner stopped clapping for his friend when his own name was called .H e nervously put on the hat and it whispered in his ear "Oh, well this is difficult very difficult " the hat said "Not Gryffindorr ,Not Gryffindorr."Harry thought despereately. "Not Gryffindorr eh, " said the hat "Well if you're sure, better be ….SLYTHERIN!"
