1 Chapter 2 A Trip To Hogwarts



2 days had past and nothing changed. He was still being bossed around by the Dursley's, still being nearly starved to death and still being beat up by Dudley and his friends. But today is going to be different. Today's the day he leaves for the Forbidden forest. That means no more Dursley's no more starving no more being beat up, no more.

"Harry! Get down here and make us some breakfast!" His Aunt yelled from the kitchen which was next to his cupboard-of-a-room.

No more being yelled at. He thought as he walked to the kitchen.

" I want pancakes Mom. Make Harry make me pancakes. I'm hungry! Tell Harry to hurry up!" Dudley yelled at his two parents.

"Harry, you make us some pancakes. Fast." His Uncle commanded.

"Yes I will." Harry replied.

It took him about 10 minutes to make them some pancakes and took 10 minutes for the Dursley's to give him a headache.

"Here you go." He served them their pancakes. Harry managed to save 2 pancakes for himself and ½ a pancake for his owl Hedwig. He walked into his cupboard.

"Hoo-hoo" Hegwig called from inside her cage.

"Ya, I got you some food." He shoved the ½ a pancake into her cage and she savagely ate them in less then a minute. She squeaked once more, probably to remind Harry to pack up for his trip to the Forbidden Forest.

Boing! His old clock informed him that it was 9:00 am.

2 hours til the train leaves. He dug through his drawers and managed to find some decent clothes Aunt Petunia got from a second hand store. He grabbed a suitcase and stuffed it with all the things he had to bring.

With a sigh he dragged his suitcase into the kitchen where his dull looking ""family"" was still gorging down on the pancakes.

"Umm Uncle Vernon?"

"Yes what do you want Harry." He replied meanly.

"I was wondering if you could drop me off at the train station?"

Their faces seemed to light up with excitement. "You are leaving for school already?" His Uncle asked excitedly.

"Well I'm not going to school. I'm going to a camp for a week."

Their excitement left. "Well still, a week!" Aunt Petunia screeched.

"Well I will drive you to the train station. When do you leave?"

"Now?" Harry replied.

Quickly his Uncle got up, grabbed his keys and raced to the car. "Come on Harry!"

Harry ran to his cupboard-of-a-room grabbed Hedwig in her cage, grabbed his suitcase and dashed to the car where Uncle Vernon was waiting impatiently.

Uncle Vernon drove like a mad man and when they reached the train station he quickly dropped Harry off, said a quick good-bye and drove away. Harry saw Uncle Vermon smile as he drove down the rode out of sight. He looked around, there was platform 9 ¾ . He grabbed his suitcase and the cage with Hedwig and ran as fast as he could through the brick wall separating plat form 9 and 10.

Steam was in the air. Hogwarts express right in front of him. The doors opened and he stepped inside. It was nearly empty except for a couple adults dressed in black robes. A man took his suitcase and the cage and put it in the storage room on the other side of the train. Harry sat down on the nearest seat which was right behind the seat were the train driver was sitting. He heard snoring, talking and strange noises coming from the train. This is going to be a long trip.
