Well, here's chapter 2. Hope you enjoy :)

Harry hadn't slept well that night. Images of his parents wove in and out of his dreams and it was all too real. His scar was constantly throbbing, and even though the pain was bearable, sometimes it got to be too much.

Everyone set off earlier than usual, to make up for the extra time that walking from Grimmauld Place would take. Nothing much happened on the way to the station, and that was just how Harry wanted it – quiet and uneventful.


Her parents woke Renesmee up at some unspeakable hour in the morning. Dumbledore had told everyone to meet in the entrance hall and he would explain everything then.

When they arrived downstairs, Dumbledore was already waiting for them. He looked them over, as if to make sure they were neat enough. Then he cleared his throat and began to speak. "I would like to introduce you to the groundskeeper, Rubeus Hagrid. He will accompany you to Diagon Alley today, and then to Kings Cross Station, where you will get the train to school along with everyone else." Suddenly a giant of a man appeared in the doorway. He had to be at least eight feet tall and about the same width-wise. He had beetle-like eyes, with the rest of his face covered by a bushy mane of a beard. He was rather intimidating.

"Well, I 'spose we should head to Diagon Alley. Err, do you have the port-key Professor?" the man said, in a broad West-country accent. Dumbledore conjured up a small table, placed a chipped teapot on it, then tapped the teapot with what was presumably his wand.

"Portus," he murmured. The teapot glowed blue for a second, before returning to its original shade of brown. "On the count of three, you all place a finger on the teapot. And don't let go. One, two, three."

The Cullens all placed a finger on the teapot – Emmett rather rudely put his middle finger on it – and then they felt like they were spinning through nothing, and everything, at the same time. A few seconds later their feet touched solid ground. As they looked around themselves they were more and more amazed.

On every corner was a shop with something fascinating in the window. Brightly coloured banners hung from roofs or in windows. It was brilliant.

"You think it's amazin' now? You shoulda seen it a couple o' years ago. There weren't nearly as much worry goin' around. People were 'appy, they were. Now enough o' that. Let's go get yer wands, shall we?" The large man said.

"Excuse me, Mr…Hagrid? But why are people worried? What's happened?" Edward asked as politely as possible.

"You need not be concernin' yerselves about that right now. I'll tell you later, once we've got your supplies. We don't have long; yer train's leaving at eleven and it's eight already." Hagrid strode down the street, stopping in front of a massive white marble building.

"Ye'll get yer money 'ere. If you have some muggle money, you can exchange it. Don't expect yeh to have any wizard money," he told them.

The Cullens entered the building. Rosalie almost recoiled in disgust when she saw the goblins. There were goblins at every door and behind every desk. She ignored them however, and continued walking. Hagrid walked up to a free desk.

"These guys need a vault. I have a letter from Albus Dumbledore about it. And they need to exchange Muggle money," he informed the squat goblin behind the desk. The goblin peered down his long nose at the Cullens and simply asked them how much they wished to exchange.

Carlisle told the goblin that he wanted to exchange five-hundred and twenty pounds, sixty-one pence, earning a strange look from the goblin.

"The money will be transferred to your vault immediately. I will call a goblin to assist you to your vault now," the goblin said in a nasal voice. Shortly afterwards another goblin, whose name was Bangnod, joined them and assisted them to a small cart. Amazingly, everyone managed to fit in the cart and soon they were speeding down the tracks. They went quite deep, but obviously not as deep as it could go.

Bangnod took out a ring of keys and inserted each of them into the locks on the door. It seemed pretty high security, and the Cullens wondered what the really high security vaults would be like. The goblin pulled the door open, to reveal a vault full of gold, silver and bronze coins. The goblin gave Carlisle a bag to put the money in.

"The gold ones are Galleons; silver ones are Sickles; bronze ones are Knuts. Seventeen Sickles to a Galleon, twenty-nine Knuts to a Sickle. Take what you need and then we best be buying your supplies," Hagrid said.

After they had collected their money, the Cullens headed to Ollivander's. Hagrid looked rather confused when he saw Carlisle carrying the heavy bag of coins as if it weighed nothing at all.

Hagrid left them at Ollivander's, telling them that he would meet them in Madam Malkin's in an hour. After he had left, an old man appeared from between two shelves.

"I expect you would be wanting wands," he whispered. The Cullens assumed he was Mr. Ollivander, and simply nodded. "Well, let me see what I have."

It took at least an hour to get the right wands for everyone. They rushed to Madam Malkin's to get their robes fitted, but luckily Hagrid wasn't there yet. He arrived about five minutes later.

"Oh gosh. You need Hogwarts uniforms? You should have been in here weeks ago dears!" the squat witch said in response to the Cullens telling her they needed seven uniforms. Edward nodded rather sheepishly. Madam Malkin began bustling around the room, finding all her necessary tools and materials. "Well, we should get straight to it. You, come up here," she said, pointing to Edward. He followed her orders and stood on the raised podium. She measured him, jotted the measurements down and continued this way until the last person had been fitted.

She told the family to come back in half an hour, which gave them time to buy books. After rushing around trying to find the correct titles and collecting their uniforms, the Cullens followed Hagrid to the apothecary to buy potions ingredients.

By the time all this had been done, they still had plenty of time to walk to Kings Cross, and stop to buy clothes along the way. Alice was under strict instruction to not go wild. She had plenty of time to do that later on, when they weren't under such a tight schedule.

They arrived at the station in good time, with their newly bought trunks now packed so tightly it would be impossible to put anything else in.

"Right, well this is it. I better be off," Hagrid said, glancing at his watch. He handed everyone their tickets and was gone before anyone could ask any questions.

"Well that doesn't make any sense," Alice said, examining her ticket thoroughly, "How can there be a Platform 9 ¾?" She looked around for any sign of another platform, but her search was fruitless.

A woman with wild red hair noticed their confusion and pushed her trolley over to them.

"Are you looking for Platform 9 ¾ dears? Don't worry, it can be confusing your first time." She gave Bella a smile and showed them what to do. "You just need to run at that wall right there. A good strong run, and you'll go straight through. I'll follow behind. Go on." She pushed Bella forward slightly.

Bella hesitated for a second. She didn't want to run at a brick wall. She was more worried about damaging the wall than herself. But then she ran. What was the worst that could happen? Surprisingly, she ended up on the other side of the wall. Only it was a different other side of the wall. There were crowds of people, all with trunks, saying goodbye to their parents. Nobody seemed to notice her come through, so she shrunk to one side, not wanting to draw attention.

Edward followed shortly after, creeping up behind Bella. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her on the neck.

"Stop," Bella giggled, "Not here, there are too many people." He pulled his lips away, but his arms remained around her waist. The rest of the family appeared behind them and they waited for the kind lady to come through.

"See, that wasn't too bad. I hope you have a good year at Hogwarts. What year will you be in?" she asked Bella.

"I'll be in fifth year."

"Oh, so you should meet my son Ronald. I need to go see my children. Good luck," she said with a smile, before running off into the crowd.

"Well, Esme and I need to go to the staff carriage. We'll see you at the feast," Carlisle told his family. He and Esme would be the only staff on board the train, meaning they would have a carriage alone. Carlisle was thankful for that. It would give them time to acclimatize.

"Okay," Alice replied.

The remaining family took up a whole compartment, with Alice sitting on Jasper's lap, so no one would bother them with asking if there was any room.

"So I'll be in fourth year on my own?" Renesmee asked, sounding disappointed.

"Yes. I'll be in fifth year with Jacob, Jasper, Alice and your father. Emmett and Rosalie will be in sixth year," Bella told her daughter. The family sat in silence for most of the journey. The only sound was Jacob stuffing his face with pumpkin pies from the sweets trolley. Renesmee and Rosalie looked on in disgust as he continued to eat.

"Do you ever stop eating?" Renesmee hissed, slapping him with her heaviest book, which she was desperately trying to memorize, so she wouldn't be too behind.

"Ow! Whyjadovat?" Jacob moaned, halfway through a mouthful of food. Flecks of food sprayed in every direction, causing Rosalie to shy away in disgust.

"Because you never stop eating!"

Jacob swallowed his food so he could speak. "It's just my nature Ness. If you're gonna be in love with me you need to come to terms with the fact that I'm an eating, sleeping, loving machine," he said, puckering his lips and leaning in for a kiss. Renesmee hit his head. "You're a butthead Jake. Go away."

"We should probably change into our uniforms. The train will be arriving in Hogsmeade soon," Alice stated. She changed in a flash, just like everyone else. "I have to say, Hogwarts needs to rethink their uniform. They are so not stylish." The small compartment erupted with laughter while Alice sat there blinking. "What did I say?" This just made everyone laugh more.

"If you don't stop laughing Emmett I will make you wear girls' clothes for the rest of the year," Alice threatened. Something about the way she said it just made Emmett laugh more. But then she gave him a death glare and he shut up immediately.

The train started to slow down, so they knew they were nearly at the station. They each grabbed their bags, ready to get off the train. The train arrived in Hogsmeade and there was a rush as everyone on the train tried to get off. Luckily the Cullens were near a door and, with their enhanced speed, were able to get off first.

Edward knew which way to go immediately, so the others followed him. They noticed carriages, and were vaguely aware of the strange horses pulling them, but decided to run to the gate. It would be a lot quicker.

They arrived at the gate about five minutes ahead of everyone else. The small teacher at the gate was slightly surprised to see them there so early, but took their names anyway.

"Jacob Black."

"Renesmee Masen."

"Edward Masen."

"Bella Swan." It felt strange for Bella to be using her maiden name again.

"Rosalie Hale."

"Emmett Swan."

"Jasper Hale."

"Alice Swan."

The teacher let them through the gate, where they would collect their trunks. As expected, their trunks were all there waiting. They walked into the Entrance Hall, and waited there for Professor McGonagall.
