Part Two: Leaving on the School Train
James sighed as his mother grabbed him into a hug one last time before he boarded the train. "Bye Mum."
"Bye James, and have a great time at school," she said to him as he climbed onto the train. He went searching for his friends, and found them in a compartment near the rear of the train. Sirius and Lily were engaged in a game of Wizard Chess, which Lily was winning, as usual.
"Hey James," Sirius said, not looking up from the chess board.
"'Lo," said Lily. A couple minutes later, Sirius had lost spectacularly, and had put away the chess board. Suddenly, four people James had never seen before entered the compartment.
"Umm...may we sit here?" asked a boy with sandy hair who looked rather pale and tired. James nodded, and the four joined them. "My name is Remus Lupin," said the boy. "What's yours?"
"James Potter, and these two weirdo's are Sirius Black and Lily Mitchell," he said, ducking an arm coming towards him from Sirius' vicinity.
"My name is Kristina March," supplied the girl next to Remus, who had dark brown hair and dark eyes.
"I..I'm P..P..Peter P..Pettigrew," stuttered a very small, pudgy, and shy looking boy.
"I'm Julia Patrick," said a girl with light blonde hair and blue eyes. "I can't wait to get to Hogwarts, can you? I have all these older siblings who already go here, and I can't wait to see what house I'm in. My three brothers are all in Gryffindor with one of my sisters, and my other sister is in Hufflepuff. Isn't that odd? I thought so. So, what house do you want to be in? I want to be in Gryffindor, and I would hate to be in Slytherin, wouldn't you? Well, being a first year is terribly exciting, isn't it? I just met these three on the platform, and their all first years too! My brothers all told me that they sort us by some sort of test, and Anthony mentioned a tiger, but I think he was kidding. I wonder how they do anyway, don't you?" She said all of this very fast, and when she stopped for breath, Sirius barged in.
"Well, I'm sure you'll just be able to talk your way through it, what ever it is." This shut her up for a while. The small boy named Peter looked quite frightened of her. James thought she was quite strange, and gave her a quizzical look.
"What's Gryffindor?" asked Kristina, looking very confused at all this.
"Oh so your muggle born?" asked Julia, getting started up again. "Well, at Hogwarts, there are four houses. You get sorted in to them when you arrive, and you do classes with your year and house. Stephanie, my sister in Hufflepuff, told me all this. She said Hufflepuff was the best, but I don't think so. Also, all of the worst dark wizards come out of Slytherin. I wouldn't want to be in their house. Oh, and there's also Ravenclaw, for the smart kids. Gryffindor is for the brave ones."
"Oh, well, I guess I would want to be in Gryffindor," Kristina said, still confused sounding.
"I want to be in Gryffindor. It sounds the best," said Remus.
"Me too," said James and Sirius at the same time. Lily giggled at this.
"W..Well, I guess I want to t..too then," stuttered Peter.
"Me three," added Lily with smile. James smiled, too. They hadn't even been on the train for two hours when they had already acquired four new friends, two of which were very strange indeed.
Lily was looking out the window. It was getting darker, so she guessed the train was almost there. She was thinking about Sirius and James' farewell-to-the-neighborhood prank. It had been hilarious. The neighbors had been furious, but in a good-natured kind of way. In big red letters, all down the center of their street, they had written, "Goodbye for a year! Try not to miss us! J and S." Also, every front yard had, "See you next summer!" written in very pretty pink flowers across them.
Suddenly someone interrupted her thoughts with a hand waving in front of her face. "Earth to Lily. Earth to Lily. Anyone home?" It was James.
"Hey! James! What?" he had surprised her. He smirked.
"Nothing, its just that you might want to change into your robes, seeing as were almost there," he commented offhandedly. She punched him playfully on the arm.
When she stepped off the train, it was freezing cold.
"Brrrrr!" said Sirius, his teeth chattering.
"Yeah, I..I know what y..you mean," James added, his teeth chattering as he tried to talk.
"Firs' years! Firs' years! Over her'! Firs' years!" called a very tall, gigantic man with shaggy black hair.
"Let's go!" Sirius yelled to Remus, Julia, Kristina, Peter, James, and Lily.
James and his fellow first years walked along a path in the dark, bumping in to each other once or twice.
"Whoa," he said when he first glimpsed the castle. He wasn't alone, everyone else had gasped too. It had hundred's of towers and windows. They had reached a lake that spread all the way to the Hogwarts castle, with small boats floating next to the shore.
"No more'n four t'a boat!" the gigantic man called. Lily, James, Sirius, and Remus were all put in a boat together. They glided slowly across the lake. Once or twice James thought he saw something gigantic swim under his boat. When they reached the opposite shore, they all got out and the man led them up to two humongous doors. The man knocked four times. The door opened.
"Ah, hello Hagrid. Come in, and I will tell you what to do," said a very tall woman with her hair pulled into a tight bun on the back of her head. "Hurry, now."
