September the First

"Harry! Harry! Get up mate"

Harry slowly opened his eyes to a very cluttered, violent orange room. Harry rubbed his eyes and feeled around the floor for his glasses. He fumbled with them, put them on and jumped. Fred Weasley was standing over him.

"Get up! Will you hurry? Mum is having a fit" said George Weasley, who was standing beside Ron's bed and shaking Ron violently.

Ron groaned and punched his pillow angrily. Harry slowly got out of his sleeping bag. Harry had arrived at the burrow the day before. Thenhe, Hermione and the Weasleys had gone to Diagon Alley. Today was September 1st, Harry's favourite day, for it was the first day of term at his 6th year at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. Harry was now standing over Ron and helping Fred and George wake him up. Mrs. Weasley shot into the room to see the three boys beating and shaking Ron.

"RONALD WEASLEY" shrieked Mrs. Weasley "GET UP! YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR THE TRAIN"

Fred, George and Harry had cleared up at this point, all standing stiffly on the side of Ron's bed. Ron had bolted up right and was looking terrified. Harry looked at Ron's clock..it was exactly 10:15am..they had to be at Kings Cross Station by 11:00am..this wasn't a lot of time considering the sort of state they were in. Harry and Ron were still in their pajama's, although most of Harry's book's were in his caldron, Harry still had to stuff a lot of things into his trunk. As for Ron, his book's and clothes were nowhere near his trunk or caldron..and underneath all the mess in his room, who knew what else he still had to pack up. The next 15 minutes were of utter chaos.

People were shrieking "MUM! WHERE IS MY" or "HAS ANYONE SEEN MY""WHERE IN THE BLOODY WORLD IS THAT THING" or even "SHUT UP YOU EVIL TWIT". People were running around all over the place, with pieces of burnt toast in their mouth, and Harry was sure he even saw Hermione hopping around with one foot trying to put a sock on. Even though the atmosphere around him was very tense and stressful, Harry couldn't help smiling. Harry loved it at the burrow, it was the greatest household he had ever been in, and he couldn't imagine a better family than the Weasley's. It was now 10:30 and everyone was lined up at the fireplace holding a bit of floo powder. Everyone looked like a wreck, still rubbing their eyes, and they all still had bedhead, especially Harry.

Harry had grown a lot over the summer holidays. Maybe about 3 inches, though he was still small for his age, and a bit slender, he was still very strong and even Harry seemed to notice some muscles in his chest and stomach area, making him stick out his chest more. His hair, was still jet black and unruly. Growing whichever way it wanted to. Harry self-consious of this..patted it down with his hands almost every 5 minutes.

"Okay" said Mr. Weasley seriously"Everyone know what to do" The Weasleys, Hermione and Harry all nodded. "It is exactly 10:30, if we all don't do this correctly and efficiently, you are going to miss the train..and we don't want the same thing happening..." said Mr. Weasley looking at Ron and Harry. Ron's ears turned pink and he looked at Harry. Harry remembered in their second year at Hogwarts when he and Ron couldn't get through the gateway to the Hogwarts express. They both knew that being late wasn't the reason they couldn't get though the barrier. Right then, Ginny shrieked. She had forgotten her favourite pink feathered quill. She ran to get it, and Mrs. Weasely looked cross.

"You lot had better not forgotten anything else" she started, when suddenly Ron got red and ran to fetch something as well. Fred rolled his eyes. Harry was feeling anxious..he kept wondering if he had forgotten anything. Ginny returned with the quill when Hermione suddenly frowned.

"I'm SO sorry! I've forgotten a book in Ron's room" she yelped. "I'll be right back" George sighed impatiently. Mr. Weasley kept looking at his watch then to his wife. Ron and Hermione both came down the steps, Ron and Hermione were both quietly talking to each other, Ron was holding his Prefects badge and Hermione was holding her book. Harry was the one who rolled his eyes this time at Ron, when Ron saw this he turned a brilliant shade of red and Hermione grinned.

"HURRY UP! This is no time for lovey-dovey" said George smiling slyly. Ron punched him in the arm. Harry tried his hardest not to laugh at Ron's embarrassment, but Harry stopped smirking when heturned toMrs. Weasley who looked positively furious at the boys.

"...anyone else?..." she said looking at them. Harry looked at his things..trunk, hedwig's cage, caldron...and then it finally hit him. Harry smacked his hand on his forehead.

"IM SO SORRY" he said embarrased"My firebolt." Harry ran before anybody could say something to him. He found it lying on the kitchen table. Harry ran back to the fireplace to find them all staring at him. Ron looked like he was going to explode if he didn't snicker.

"OKAY!.." said Mr. Weasley for the last time.."it's now.." he glanced at his watch "10:40..if we don't all get into the fireplace at once..you lot won't make it.. so what i want you to do..is put only a bit of the floo powder in as you come into the fire, then we will use the rest of the powder to transport us altogether, we must all do this fast, and if you don't get onto that train..i'm sure not letting anyone of you back in here" he said sort of as a joke, trying to lighten the mood and he looked at his wife. Mrs. Weasley was not pleased.

"Oh Molly..." he started.

"Just...Get into the fire.." Mrs. Weasley said in an awful tone. Everyone was too afraid to say anything to this...but Harry wasn't sure how it would work..they couldn't all possibly fit into that tiny ? Mr. Weasley threw only a little bit of his floo powder into the fire, which turned emerald green, then he got in, then Ginny and Mrs. Weasley got in together, Harry looked at them all standing in the fireplace..surely, nobody else could fit in there, he thought. George got in with Fred. Hermione ducked in quickly and Ron followed suit. Harry looked at them in bewilderment..he had traveled by floo powder before, but not in a large group like this.

"Get in will you" said Ron coughing up soot. Hermione was looking impatiently at him. Harry threw a bit of his powder in then took hold of his trunk and passed it to Ron, he put Hedwig's cage and his firebolt into his caldron. 'How is it all fitting?' Harry thought. Harry ducked in the fireplace holding his caldron and when he turned to look at everyone, they were all standing comfortably side by side, staring at him. The fireplace seemed to have stretched itself to fit everyone in.

"Ready" said Mr. Weasley. Harry gripped onto his trunk handle and on his other hand he held his leftover share of floo powder. He tucked in his elbows and shut his eyes. He could hear Mr. Weasley loudly coughing and counting 1,2,3.

"King's Cross Station."
