Chapter 35

Remus pushed Jackie's trunk on the trolley quickly towards the barrier for platform 9 and ¾'s as his daughter rushed behind him holding Snowy in her cage.

"Hurry Jackie or we will be late" Remus said as he ran quickly. Jackie followed him bumping into something as she did.

"Oops sorry" Jackie said as she looked at the boy stood on his own with dark hair and glasses he looked lost she thought Jackie was about to ask if he needed help when her father shouted again. She quickly ran towards the barrier and went straight through to the other side.


A few minutes passed before The Weasley's arrived at Kings Cross station it was only Molly, Percy, Fred, George, Ron and Ginny who had come to the station this time Charlie had finished school now and was living in Romania while Mr Weasley had to do overtime at work.

Fred walked beside Percy pushing their trolley's quickly towards the barrier. George was stood behind them pushing his own trolley besides Ron's telling him all about Hogwarts. It was Ron's first year so he too would be joining Fred, George and Percy at the school.

"It's packed with Muggles off course" Molly said as she pushed her way through the crowds holding onto Ginny's hand tightly.

"Now what's the platform number" Molly said as she stopped walking and looked at them. Percy, Fred and George looked at her strangely was their mother going mad she knew the platform number surely she had after all attended the school herself as well as having four children study their and a new child joining.

"Nine and three quarters!" Ginny piped in that's when George realised she was doing it to try and cheer Ginny up who was sad that all her brothers would now be at Hogwarts while she couldn't attend. "Mum can't I go..." Ginny started to plead as she looked up at Molly.

"You're not old enough Ginny now be quiet" Molly said.


On the other side of the platform Jackie stood waiting for the twins, Lee and Angelina to arrive.

"Jackie" Angelina shouted as she rushed towards her.

"Ange" Jackie said as she hugged her best friend excited to see her.

"Come on the twins and Lee can find us after I have to tell you something before they come" Angelina said as she looked at her.

"Dad I have to go now I'll see you soon" she said. Jackie quickly hugged her dad goodbye and kissed his cheek before rushing off to follow Angelina onto the train and find a compartment.


As Fred and George stood by their brothers waiting they noticed a small boy watching them as he stood off to the side they were about to go and speak to him when they heard their mother.

"All right Percy you first" Molly said as she looked at Percy and smiled. Percy who was now wearing a shiny prefects badge headed proudly through the barrier to 9 and ¾'s.

"Fred you next" Molly said as she looked at him. Fred and George looked at each other quickly with an evil grin.

"He's not Fred I am" George said as he looked at her and shook his head forcing a look of agitation onto his face.

"Honestly woman you call yourself our mother!" Fred said as he looked at her and started to push his trolley.

"Sorry George dear" Molly said as she looked at him apologetically.

"Only joking I am Fred!" he exclaimed as he walked to her, noticing her scowl he quickly rushed off and through the barrier. "George hurry up" Fred shouted back George quickly followed his brother through the barrier onto the platform leaving only Ron to pass through.

"Agh Boys there you are" Remus said as he saw them just as he was about to leave. "Jackie's gone with Angelina onto the train to talk" he informed them as he noticed them looking around for his daughter.

"Thanks Mr Lupin" the twins said with a smile and followed Percy towards the train.


"So what is it?" Jackie asked Angelina curiously.

"Oliver's asked me out" Angelina informed her.

"What!" Jackie exclaimed "an your only just telling me?" she asked looking at her best friend.

"He only just asked me ten minutes ago!" Angelina told her as she couldn't stop smiling.

"I hope you said yes" Jackie said as she too joined in her friend's excited. Angelina nodded and the two girls jumped up and down excitedly.


George was about to follow his brother down the train when he saw the young boy they had seen earlier place his owl inside and watched him struggle to lift his trunk inside.

"Want a hand?" George asked as he walked over to him.

"Yes please" Harry panted as he looked at them.

"Oy Fred! Come here and help!" George exclaimed as he looked towards Fred who was now heading down the train. Fred turned around and rushed back towards his twin together they helped Harry get his belongings onto the train and into the corner of the compartment.

"What's that?" George asked as he noticed the scar on the boy's head.

"Blimey are you?" Fred asked as he looked at him.

"He is!" George exclaimed "Aren't you?" he added excited to see the real Harry Potter in front of him the one who had defeated he who must not be named.

"What?" He asked looking at the twins confused.

"Harry Potter" chorused Fred and George.


As Harry wondered off to find a carriage Molly came rushing towards the twins as they stood on the platform Ron and Ginny were at her side.

"Ron you've got something on your nose" Molly said as she began rubbing at his nose Fred and George snickered as Ron squirmed.

"Mum – geroff" Ron said as he wriggled free.

"Aahh, has ickle Ronnie got something on his nosie?" George said.

"Shut up!" Ron shouted back glaring at him.

"Where's Percy?" Molly asked as she looked at them.

"He's coming now" Fred answered with a laugh as he saw his older brother striding towards them in his shiny new robes showing off his badge. Percy had been to change before they had even boarded the train obviously wanting to show off that he was now a prefect.

"Can't stay long Mother the prefects have got two compartments to themselves "Percy said as he looked at them smugly.

"Oh, are you a prefect, Percy?" said George, with an air of great surprise. "You should have said something, we had no idea."

"Hang on, I think I remember him saying something about it," Fred added. "Once-"
"Or twice-"George said
"A minute-"Fred chipped in.
"All summer-" George finished off as they looked at him and sniggered.

"Oh shut up!" Percy said with a scowl as Molly glared at them.

"How come he gets new robes anyway?" George asked as he looked at his mum.

"Because he's a prefect" Molly said proudly before she turned back to Percy. "All right dear well have a good term and send me an owl when you get there" Molly said as she smiled at hm and kissed his cheek before he left.


"Now, you two – this year, you behave yourselves. If I get one more owl telling me you've – you've blown up a toilet or –" Molly said as she turned to face them.
"Blown up a toilet? We've never blown up a toilet." George said with a smirk.
"Great idea though, thanks, Mum." Fred added George laughed stopping when he saw his mum's glare.

"It's not funny. And look after Ron" Molly said as she looked at them both sternly.

"Don't worry Ickle Ronniekins is safe with us" the twins said with a smile and a glint in their eyes as they wrapped their arms around their brother.

"Shut up" Ron said as he looked at them. George wanted to get away now so that he could go and find Jackie but then Fred turned to Molly and spoke again.

"Hey mum, guess what? Guess who we just met on the train?" Fred said with a wide grin plastered on his face.

"You know that black haired boy who was near us in the station? Know who he is" Fred spoke.

"Who?" Molly asked curiously.

"Harry Potter!" Fred exclaimed.

"Oh mum, can I go on the train and see him, Mum oh please" Ginny said as she looked at her mother eagerly. George thought if she did that she'd hide herself so that she could go to Hogwarts with them instead of back home to the Burrow.

"You've already seen him Ginny, and the poor boy isn't something you goggle at in a zoo." She said but then her curiousity got the better of her "Is he really Fred?" she asked as she looked at her son.

"Asked him. Saw his scar. It's really there it's like lightning" Fred told her.

"Poor dear – no wonder he was alone. I did wonder. He was ever so polite when he asked how to get on to the platform" Molly told her children.

"Never mind that, do you think he remembers what you know who looks like?" Fred asked her.

"I forbid you to ask him, Fred. No don't you dare As though he needs reminding of that on his first day at school" she said as she looked at them sternly.

"All right keep your hair on" Fred and George commented as they looked at her and smiled.


Just then the whistle sounded and Fred, George and Ron clambered onto the train. Ginny began to cry as she looked at them.

"Don't Ginny we'll send you loads of owls" Ron said as he looked at his younger sister.

"We'll send you a Hogwarts toilet seat" George told her with a grin lighting up his face.

"George!" Molly exclaimed in horror.

"Only joking, Mum" he told her with a smile as the train began to move. The boys waved as they watched Ginny run after them she was half laughing and half crying as she ran waving at them Fred and George stood and waved as Ron went off to find a seat.


Ok well that one's up I decided to go with the film when I had the twin's going onto Platform 9 and 3/4's as I think it comes off better.
