Chapter 1: The Dementors
All in all, Gavin called the train ride to Hogwarts, well, terrible.
Gavin Wolfe is a strange boy. Not only does he have a taste for dramatic stuff and a huge sense of humor, but he is a wizard. He is a wizard fresh from his second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Growing up, Gavin was taught magic by his mother, sometimes using her wand. His dad was a drunk, drinking every night. Gavin was sure his father remembered a day past 9pm since his teenage years. His father was a pureblood, borne to a witch and a wizard. Gavin's father's name is Scott Wolfe, and he is an ex-Hufflepuff, graduated from Hogwarts. Scott's wife, Kathy Wolfe, however, is a half-blood, born to a pureblood and a halfblood. She is an ex-Ravenclaw.
Now you might be wondering what made the train ride so terrible. If Gavin was asked to recount the story, he'd start at the train slowly stopping to a halt. He'd been chatting with his girlfriend, Sunny Melody. She too is a third year Hufflepuff. They were just talking about how great the feast in the Great Hall would be, until the lights flickered, and went out. They glanced at each other, then at the light. The train slowed to a stop.
"You wait here, Sunny, I'm going to ask Nix or someone close by what's going on," Gavin said, getting up to the door.
"Come back quick!" Sunny shouted at Gavin's retreating back, and the door closed with a small thud. Gavin traveled down the hallway, listening into compartments. He wrapped his jacket more closely around him. It had suddenly gotten colder. Gavin passed by a compartment and heard Nix.
"…think someone is coming abroad!" Nix was saying, then, "Gavin?" as she saw his silhouette in the compartment door he just opened.
"Hey Nix-y," Gavin said, smiling as Nix rolled her eyes, "do you know what's going on?"
"No. Actually, I was about to go and ask the driver the same thing," said Nix, standing up. She went over and opened the compartment door, and slammed it shut, and they could hear her running down the hallway past panicked kids, and a sudden thud and stifled yell made them jump, but they carried on.
"So," Gavin said awkwardly, "how are you, Potter?" Harry rolled his eyes. Gavin always tried to be one of the people who called him 'Potter' but it never worked.
"I'm fine, Gavin. What about you?" Harry said.
"Well, I was okay, until now…" said Gavin, staring out the compartment door. Harry chuckled.
"Can't be something that bad, eh?" Harry said, "I mean, we've got tons of witches and wizards aboard. Nothing we can't handle if something does happen."
The compartment door opened just then. Nix, Abby, and Ellie walked in.
"So? Did you find out what's going on?" questioned Gavin.
"No I didn't get a chance since I ran into Abby and Ellie who were going to do the same thing." sighed Nix. As she sighed, Gavin noticed something. Fog was coming out of Nix's mouth, meaning Gavin wasn't the only one cold in here. It looked as though Nix had noticed that. And just to their luck, the door opened once more. Gavin looked, expecting to see Chloe or someone. But what they saw, instead, was something Gavin had only read about in his mother's books. He had hoped never to meet one in his life. Gavin knew what he would re-live when he met one. Suddenly, Gavin fell off his chair. Any sort of happiness left the room, to be replaced with sad, cold, loneliness. Gavin heard a scream. His mothers scream. Gavin did not forget, won't ever forget, that scream. It is the scream of terror. 5 years after Voldemorts' downfall, after Harry Potter, the same boy in the compartment with Gavin, got the better of him, one of his followers came into open.
Gavin expected the Death Eater—the name they called Voldemorts' followers—had tried to bring Voldemorts' power back. He had come to Godric's Hollow, perhaps hoping Harry was still kept there, to kill him. The Death Eater was angry he could not find him. Gavin being a five-year-old, he still remembered seeing him walking out the window. He remembered the shape, the look, the silhouette of the man. It was the same man that came angry into his own home. The man, the Death Eater, the follower, whatever you want to call him, came in and killed her. Gavin later found out the Death Eater's name was Dolohov. Dolohov came into his home and killed her. Gavin's 1 month year-old-sister. This is what Gavin was hearing. The scream of his mother, the cry of Kat, his sister. Gavin tried to get up, but his body wouldn't let him. The dementor reached to Harry, who fainted and started fidgeting. The he reached to Gavin who heard Dolohovs' laugh, Kathy's scream, and Kat's cry. Then, in the same way as Harry, he remembered no more.
