Chapter 1: Platform 9 ¾
Harry opened his eyes and gasped in awe as he stepped into Platform 9 ¾. He saw the Hogwarts Express for the first time and was amazed at the size of it. The sides gleamed red and the platform was warm with steam. He grinned, then turned around to see his mum and dad appearing out of the wall behind him. They walked forward and came up in front of him.
"You are going to love Hogwarts," said Lily as she kissed her son on the head. Harry blushed, and said back
"You've only told me a hundred times." He looked around for his friend Neville, and his parents. Instead he saw a big family of redheaded people, with a kid who looked his age looking around excitedly as well. There was an older looking boy, identical twins, laughing hysterically, the boy his age, a younger looking girl, and their mum. All with red hair.
"Mum who's that?" He asked, gesturing toward the redheads. Lily replied, but he didn't hear her, he had caught sight of his godfather, Sirius Black.
"Sirius!" He yelled, dropping his trunk and his brand new barn owl (whose cage was stopped from hitting the floor by a quick cushioning charm from Lily), and running to Sirius. The two hugged and they walked back to James and Lily, who had been joined by their friends Frank and Alice Longbottom. Their son Neville was walking behind them staring at the train in wonder. Harry walked up to Neville.
"Hey Harry!" Neville said, as the two boys greeted each other. They kept walking along the train as their parents talked. Sirius turned around and handed the two boys 10 galleons each.
"These are for the trolley on the don't we find you two a compartment?" Sirius grinned. "Remus says he is sorry he couldn't make it, he got caught up with something at work." Harry gasped happily (at the galleons) and the frowned in disappointment as he, Neville, and their parents got them loaded into a compartment. The parents clambered off the train and they started saying their goodbyes. Sirius hugged Harry, told him to write, then apparated away. James clapped him on the back, and Lily bent down and hugged him.
"Remember what I told you about Hogwarts being the safest place in England. You will be protected from him, but just remember that shield charm we worked on this summer." Harry nodded and pulled away. He fingered his wand hidden up his sleeve.
"Bye mum, I'll write to you! See you soon" He and Neville stepped onto the train and got into their compartment. They stuck their heads out the window as the train pulled away. All of the parents were waving goodbye to their children as the Hogwarts Express pulled out of the station and disappeared into the landscape beyond.
Harry and Neville were just getting settled into their seats when the door opened and a boy with a shock of red hair poked his head in.
"Is it alright if I sit here with you? All the other compartments are full." He said. Harry and Neville nodded. "I'm Ron Weasley by the way. What are your names?"
A/N~ another cliffhanger! I think it's pretty good. Hopefully I'll have the next chapter out in a few days. =D R&R! it makes the story come out faster
Also I take your ideas for things. Let me know how I;m doing, what I need to change, Stuff like that. Also, is my story long enough? Or do I need to make the chapters have more words. Okay,
Until next time!
