Narcissus
Chapter 1 Making Friends
I walked down the station looking for some indication of where platform 9 ¾ was. The station platform I was currently on smelled like garbage, cats and cigarettes, the stones were a speckled grey. It was full of people, 6 of which had flame-red hair. "It is packed with muggles! Now, how many…" The woman seemed somewhat comforting.
'It wouldn't hurt to follow her'
She led the others –her husband and children is my guess - to a wall "Quickly, Charlie, through you go" the oldest child -he looked about 15- stepped through the barrier
'Wait what?'
"Come on now, you next Percy" The second – about 13 – went through "You go next Arthur" The man next to her went through "You next Fred"
"Honestly, can't you tell I'm George? And you call yourself our mother" said one of the two remaining boys
"Oh sorry George you go next"
"I'm just joking I am Fred" He replied and ran through, closely followed by the other boy.
"Excuse me?" I asked shyly "But umm how do you get to platform 9 ¾?"
"Come through with me dear! It's easy!" she said, almost pitying. I let her hold my hand, the one that wasn't holding my case, and followed her through the wall. I felt myself tense up as we passed through but the lady only held my hand tighter. "We're here." I opened my eyes, I hadn't noticed closing them. "Where are your parents?"
"Australia. I only came to Australia to go to Hogwarts"
"Oh my! And what is your name?"
"Narcissus."
"Well Narcissus, I have two boys about your age and they will be sure to sit with you on the train."
"I'd like that"
"FRED! GEORGE!" she bellowed and two twin boys appeared "This is Narcissus. She's new this year as well, she is from Australia and probably a little nervous so be nice" she said with extreme emphasis on the last bit.
"Mum we're always nice-
-Especially to girls-
-So don't stress" The said in turn. The lady then hmphed and walked away hurriedly
"So, your name's Narcissus?" queried one
"Yeah. What's yours?"
"Fred-
-And George" as we had been talking we had walked towards the train
"Do we get on?" I asked
"Nope. We stay here for eternity."
"But in Melbourne you need a ticket to board a train."(1)
"Well, you do in London as well-
-But this train is special-
-It's magical-
-Its name is The Hogwarts Express-
-It takes us to Hogwarts." So we stepped onto the train and started to look for somewhere to sit. The sides were lined with doors that opened to compartments, all of with were full but as we neared the end we found one that only had one boy in it, he had tanned skin and dark hair. "Excuse me but do you mind if we sit here? Everywhere else is full." I half-asked-half-begged. He looked up at us and gestured that it was okay. "My name's Lee" he said as we walked in. "Mine's Narcissus."
"Weird name"
"I like it. It means 'Stay as Sweet as You Are' and is a really pretty flower. This is Fred and George by the way."
"Pleasure" He said and sounded like he meant it. I swung my case up onto the rack and sat down, the twins followed, one of them said "Hey, so you're from Australia?"
"Yep"
"What's it like there?"
"Warm. England is freezing" (Or so I think. I have never been to England)
"Do you have any pets?" Lee started asking questions as well.
"Yeah, I have a dog named Jack" (and he is totally adorable!)
"Have you ever wrestled a crocodile?"
I snorted "No. I can't wrestle to save myself."
"Have you ever-
"What is this, 20 questions?" I snapped now slightly annoyed
"Yes" They all replied in unison
"Alright, my turn. Twins, what's your last name?"
"Weasley"
"Lee, yours?
"Jordan"
"Mine's Agate" (A lucky, protective gemstone.)
"Well Narcissus Agate, it is a pleasure to be your friend." Said Lee with a grand bow. I laughed at that.
"Hey have you two ever heard of 'the list'?" said George
"Nope" I replied
"It's this list of things not to do at Hogwarts."
"We're going to do all of them aren't we?" said Lee, not that innocently
"You bet" said the twins in unison. By this point I too was sporting an evil grin.
"What does the list say?" I whispered, quite excited, I normally didn't get into a lot of trouble.
"Well, it goes like this…"
Yep the list will be in the next chapter. Remember to click the little link that says review. Please. No chapter 2 till I get at least 1 review.
