Peter
Oh, she was so perfect wasn't she? The Miracle, The Golden Child, The Angel - His stupid little sister Hope Pettigrew. While he was short and a little chubby with small, watery blue eyes and mousey brown hair, she was tall and slim with wide innocent green eyes and soft golden hair. She was also only 8 and a child genius. He hated her so much. When the letter had been delivered by an owl ( He still thought that was cool, wizards had birds delivering letters!) he was so excited. It was something Hope didn't have and he did. Peter thought his Mum would be proud of him. How was he supposed to know that his mum had walked out on his dad ( who was also a wizard ) because she hated his dad's world? Rebecca, his Mum, tore the letter up and threw it in the bin. His step-dad, Hope's Father, had persuaded his mum to let him go to Hogwarts. When Rebecca had left the room after announcing Peter could go, his step-dad had snarled that at least Peter wouldn't be around to ruin everybodies life anymore. Peter was a reminder that Rebecca had, had another life, love another person and his step-dad couldn't handle that. Peter laughed and found he didn't care what his family said to him; he was leaving them. Anyway, the rage in his half sisters eyes had been enough to make him happy for a year or two. She, the child Rebecca had given birth to even though the doctors had told her she couldn't have more children, was jealous of him. The happiness didn't last long as he looked around his surroundings. He had know idea where he was supposed to go. Kingscross station didn't have a Platform 9 and 3/4. He bit the inside of his cheek, if he were Hope somebody would have helped him by now. unfortunately he wasn't Hope and had to do everything by himself. Peter sat down on a bench and stared at the wall. He wasn't the sharpest crayon in the box ( He was the white crayon that nobody used as Hope would often tell him when he couldn't figure something out) but he was going to figure out how to get to Hogwarts.
Peter's attention was suddenly focused on a young boy with messy black hair and glasses. His attention was on this boy because he was running straight towards a brick wall. Idiot. The boy would either knock himself unconscious or have an extremely bad headache. Peter enjoyed a minute of imagining Hope running into the wall but then he was back in reality. The boy was only a few meters away from the wall now. Maybe he was insane ? It wouldn't surprise Peter, after all there were some very weird people in the world. The boy got closer and closer and closer until ... He vanished. When he should have broken his nose on the wall he had gone through it. Was Peter the insane one ? Why was nobody else staring at this unhuman boy? He had just gone through a wall ... a wall. Sure ghosts did it all the time in films but Peter was 75 % sure that the boy wasn't a ghost. People didn't just go through walls, that was impossible. What were they? Magic ?
Oh.
Sometimes Peter did wonder if his sister was right about him being the white crayon. One look up confirmed that the wall was right next to Platform 9. He thought bitterly that Hope would never have been as idiotic as him. Though, to be fair, Hope would probably have all the help in the world when she needed it. Peter heaved his suitcase up off the floor and started to make his way over. He stared at the wall, when he got closer, it looked real. It also looked hard and, well, solid . He reached a hand out carefully. The wall rippled around it like water and his hand disappeared. Right, time for the rest of his body. He closed his eyes ( It wasn't everyday you go through a magical brick wall and he was slightly terrified ) and stepped through, stumbling a bit with the weight of his case. When he opened his eyes he was amazed. There were people everywhere and a gigantic red train. A train that, Peter realised, was his escape. His smile hurt his face but he didn't care, he was leaving. He could learn a spell to turn Hope into a toad; that would be brilliant.
Now how was he supposed to haul his case up onto it ?
A/N- Review please- Good or bad . Also I don't own Harry Potter ( this goes for all chapters)
