The Un-Twinned Part 4
The first day of George's emotional journey had arrived. Everyone, yes everyone- was excited about it. Like it was every year in the Burrow, when the 1st of September had arrived, the family was very hectic and stuff. All them kids were rushing around trying to get as much as possible to fit in their personalised trunks. Single socks, forgotten books, and crumpled clothes filled the floors of the tiny house. All the Weasley's were sprinting round the house, trying to complete as many last minute tasks before the taxis to the train station would arrive.
Mrs Weasley could just about be heard over the noise of everything, "Have you remembered everything dears, the taxis have arrived!" And arrived they had.
The car journey was a very short one, as all journeys are when your excited about the destination.
This was it, the first meaningful place of George's journey, King's Cross. The place where George and his twin had been twice a year since they were 12, (not 11 cos they only went there once that year). Everyone was like proper nervous, shaking violently. Then George strode onto the bench which he and his brother had once covered in super glue so that a hobo called Scott, got stuck, ready for his valiant speech.
"Hello everyone", said George to all the happy magical folk on the platform of 9 3/4, "I assume you know who I am, lets face it, who wouldn't!"
There was a roar of laughter at George's amazing joke before he carried on.
"I am George Weasley, yes, you know, but I love the sound of it so I thought I'd say it anyway" more laughter followed, he was hilarious after all, "You may wonder why I am here, and I will tell you. I am here to begin my wonderful journey. Which, of course, does have it's own name. This name is of incredible glory and after it is spoken, will never be forgotten. The adventure has in fact already started, right here in Kings Cross. So please, go ahead, get out your fascinating camera equipment and take your pictures. After today this station won't be known as Kings Cross, it will be remembered as George Weasley's first stage of M.E.J.O.G. Yes, M.E.J.O.G. I will now reveal what this stands for".
There was a murmur of excitement as everyone wondered in awe of his adventure, and tried to get their little brains to make sense of it all and guess what the letters M.E.J.O.G. stood for.
The famously big-headed Harry Potter could be heard over the mutter, "Yes I know the name, cos I'm so totally amazing I knew before you lot, you know, since I'm special and all that!". Little did he know, no-one was listening to him, they were too busy listening to George's spectacularly spectacular speech.
"Are you ready wizards and witches of England. Are you ready for me to uncover the secret of this acronym and divulge into the greatest piece of information ever to be known?" He bellowed as a cheer of agreement spread across the platform.
"Everyone better be ready as I prepare to let the unknown be known-" he was stopped by the roar of the train horn. A moment of silence, then there was a bustle of activity as everyone tried to get on the train before it left. Soon George was the only person left on the platform. He was speechless. No-one had interrupted him since the incident with Harry Potter. No-one. Now not only had the train interrupted him, but it had stopped him from finishing his spectacular speech and letting every person of the wizarding world know about his absolutely amazing quest.
George was not happy.
