Eleventh time lucky - chapter Nine

Eltala looked a lot the same. True her hair was a few inches longer, she looked two maybe three years younger and a scar on her right cheek was missing, but no great change. Lily and Harry were gone, but Sirius and Severus were very different. They both were in fact eleven years old. Their look of hatred had changed to a look of surprise, as they examined their younger selves.

They were sitting in a row in a muggle area of the London train station – receiving strange looks at their robes and trunks. Sirius stood up and beckoned them towards the platforms nine and ten. On three they fell back into the barrier only to find themselves on another platform. Platform 9 ¾. With a sneer that so suited him, Severus left the others and went to find his father, who had just stepped onto the platform.

Sirius finally felt at home. Here he was with all his friends to be. He knew a couple of people in his year, before Hogswarts, and one of them was James, the main person he was trying to save. The others – well, they didn't bear thinking about. Sirius' and James' parents were great friends, and he and James had grown up together like brothers. Now where was he? Suddenly his memory of what he was trying to do, disappeared out of his mind, and Sirius really was eleven years old.

Crash! Sirius' trunk went flying as another boy suddenly appeared practically on top of him. Sirius realised that he had not moved from where he had come through the barrier, so of course he would be knocked over. James helped his friend to his feet, and together they dragged the two trunks towards the train.

"So, how are you James?".

"Good, as usual. You know there is some really pretty girls in this school… Especially that one over there, with long dark red hair and green eyes. She looks lost, shall we…"

Sirius interrupted. "No, we shall find our seats."

James looked crestfallen, but he agreed and together the two friends made their way onto the train, and down the corridor to find an empty compartment. They found one, right at the end of the train - all the others were occupied. With their trunks heaved onto the shelf, the two sat down and James began dealing out for a game of explosive snap. They didn't get any further than dealing, as both found it much more interesting to talk.

James was getting a little exasperated at the way Sirius repeatedly asking him how he was. It seemed to James that Sirius was acting as if they hadn't seen each other for about fifteen years. Truth be told, they had spent the day together less than a week ago. His annoyance was fortunately (or unfortunately – depends which way you look at it) interrupted, by the red haired first year girl – the same one they had seen earlier - stumbling into the carriage. Before anything else was said, three other boys walked casually into the carriage. All first year. One of them Sirius and James recognised as Lucius Malfoy. Son of that dark wizard Maestro Malfoy.

Lucius sneered at the girl.

"This is where you will stay, Miss Evans. With outcasts and misfits like yourself. Don't ever refuse to vacate a compartment for us again!"

Sirius and James were infuriated with this – the treatment of that girl even more than the less than flattering description of themselves. The two jumped to their feet, wands out. Both were thinking the same thing. Although Lucius was looked thin and weak, his two friends were quite the opposite. Their looks – well, truth be told, they lacked a certain - er – something. Kind of like chunks of rock, but no doubt they would be skilful in fighting.

Catching them both by surprise, Lucius pulled out his wand from up is sleeve and shouted a short incantation that put both James and Sirius on the floor.

"Multi Crucio!"
