5th
Year Sorrows Part 4
"My, my, look at the time, I
really should get back to Lupin's house, see everybody later!" said Sirius,
helping himself to a bit of Floo Powder. Harry knew he needed to get back, but
he also couldn't blame him for leaving so quickly.
**
Around 8:00, they all left the
Burrow. Mrs. Weasley said the train would be there at 9:30, and she wanted to
leave early. The Ministry provided them with some cars.
**
They got to King's Cross around
9:00, so Harry, Ron, and Hermione went to get good seats. Because of Ron, they
wouldn't be sitting with the Prefects, but the sat behind the Prefects booth,
so it wasn't that bad.
"Ron, I can't believe they
didn't make you a Prefect," said Hermione huffily.
"I don't want to be a Prefect,
it wouldn't be any fun. I just hope Harry doesn't turn into a mini Percy," he
said, snorting with laughter.
"Oh, shut up. I really don't to
be a Prefect, the only good part is you should see that bathroom!" said Harry,
remembering his trip to the Prefect's bathroom in his previous year. "Ron, do
you know who the Quidditch Captain's going to be?" he said, changing the
subject.
"Oh, I thought it would be you.
If it isn't you I don't know who it's gonna be," said Ron.
"Hmmm, Ron, I think you'd make a
good captain," said Harry, "Did you ever play as Keeper?"
"No, I never played, but hey,
you never know. Me, captain, I'd never think, you'd be a lot better than me."
"No I wouldn't. I might be a
good seeker, but a captain, me? I don't know..."
"Harry, you'd be great, think
about it."
"I think you'd both be good
captains, alright?" said Hermione with a scowl, "But, this may come as a
surprise to both of you, but I've heard that Neville might become captain."
"Hermione, you do have a sense
of humor after all," said Ron, roaring with laughter.
"Well, if you're not going to
believe me, why don't you ask him, he's getting on the train right now."
***Hehe, Neville,
Quidditch Captain, sounds funny, but it could happen... The next part coming
probably Sunday or Monday.***
