Two Times the Escape

Chapter 3: The Journey from the Platform and Best Friends

I memorized the textbooks by heart to the point where I knew everything that I could. I also read the background books too and I knew them well enough.

My aunt and uncle agreed to take me to the train station on the basis that they had to take out the ruddy tail that Daily inherited. That was a moment that I would keep in my mind forever.

I met Harry on the platform between 9 and 10 and we were wondering just how we would get on when we saw a bunch of red head people. The shouted something about "muggles" so we were right on their tail.

"Excuse me but can you tell me, well us how to"

"How to get onto the platform, yes, not to worry my dears. It's Ron's first time to Hogwarts as well." She said pointing to the smallest boy.

"All you have to do is walk straight at the barrier between 9 and 10. Best do it at a swift run if you're nervous."

'Don't look at me. You're first.' I said looking at Harry.

"Fine." Harry said and ran through the wall and got straight on through. So, I ran and ran and I thought I would crash but I got through. Harry was waiting for me at the other side. Actually two of the red haired boys were helping him lug his trunk up on the platform.

'Harry! I got through too.'

"Little sister?" asked one of the boys

'By only 5 minutes.'

"Another set of twins?" the other boy said. Then I took a good look at them. They were identical.

'Fraternal twins.' I said as we now were lugging my trunk up into the compartment.

"Sorry there we didn't introduce ourselves. Fred and George Weasley. Holy cricket, you two are the Potter twins. Harry and Kamille aren't you?" Fred said

"Um…yeah. Scar and all."

'I go by Kami though.' I said holding out my left hand

"You two do have the scars." George said looking at my hand.

They then left the compartment and we saw them with their mother. We could hear a bit of what they were saying so we sank back into the shadows of the compartment.

"Mum. Guess who those first years were?"

"Who George?"

"The Potter twins. Kami and Harry."

"Are you two sure?"

"Yeah, saw their scars and everything."

"I wonder if they remember what you-know-who looks like?"

"I forbid you to ask them that. They don't need remembering of that on their first day of school."

Harry went back to his own thoughts then as I pulled out The Standard Book of Spells.

'Harry can I try a spell on your glasses?'

"Um…why not use yours?"

'Because it already worked on mine.'

"Fine. Do you need me to take them off?"

'Reparo.' I said and his glasses mended themselves.

"I defiantly need to learn that one."

Just then the compartment slid open. But it wasn't the red headed twins; it was the younger brother that their mother pointed to.

"Do you two mind? Everywhere else is full."

Harry looked at me and then I shrugged my shoulder's saying quite clearly that I didn't mind.

"Not at all." Harry said gesturing to the seat next to him. There were three seats on either side of the compartment. Though I dunno why we needed the space.

"Is it true? Are you two really Kamille and Harry Potter?" the boy blurted out.

"Yes, but my sister goes by Kami. I wish people will get it right." Harry said nicely.

"Sorry, Kami, it's just everyone has grown up calling you Kamille that no one knew if you hated it or not. My name is Ron Weasley by the way."

"Are all of your family wizards?"

"Yeah. I have 7 brothers." And Harry and Ron got into a conversation about the wizard sport Quidditch and families. I read deeper into my book when the compartment opened again. It was a girl with very bushy brown hair.

"Have any of you seen a toad? A boy named Neville's lost one?"

"No."

"Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see it then?" the girl asked looking at Ron's pulled out wand.

"Um…sunshine daisies butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow." Ron chanted. It had no effect.

"Is that a real spell? Well, it isn't very good is it? I've only tried a few simple spells, but they've all worked for me. And of course I have memorized all of the books plus more by heart. My name is Hermione Granger. And you are?" she said this all very fast.

"Ron Weasley, but uh…such as what spells."

"Alohamora." Hermione sighed and Ron's trunk clicked open.

"Harry Potter."

"Good Lord. Are you really? I have read all about you. You are in a number of my background reading books. Such a tragedy what happened to your sister."

'Um…excuse me!'

"And you are?"

'Kami Potter!'

"Good Lord. Are you really?"

'Yes. And you aren't the only one that has memorized all of the course work and more. I have too.' I pointed my wand at the window. 'Avis' birds shot out of my wand and flew out the window.

"Well, I'll be. You are really good. I suppose I will see you at the school then."

"Whatever house I am in I hope that she isn't in." Ron said muttering to Harry about his brother's again.

At noon a plumb witch with a trolley came buy with half of a candy shop. Harry stood up and bought a bunch of everything. Ron talked us through all of the sweets. Any Chocolate Frog cards that were duplicated I ended up with. It was a pleasant enough journey. Until the boy from Madame Malkin's came in that was talking to Harry.

They started a feud of course and wanted Harry to leave me and Ron and go with him. He actually told them off and they left after Scabbers Ron's rat bite one of the body guards.

Twenty minutes later Blake came in. The boy from Madame Malkin's that I talked to.

"Hullo there Kami! Alright?"

'I'm fine. Why don't you grab your stuff and join us?'

"Sure. Be right there."

'You guys don't mind do you?'

"Not at all Kami. Any friend of yours is a friend of mine." Harry said happily while Ron nodded his head.

"You won't believe the rumors I've heard about you Kami."

'Trust me Blake, I know all of them.'

When we got to the train station we found Hagrid with a lantern shouting for all of the first years.

We were told to get into a boat no more than four to a boat. So, it worked out perfectly. Except Ron was a bit upset when he was told that he would have to sit next to Blake.

"Brought the lot in Professor McGonagall." Hagrid told a stern looking lady with emerald robes.
