What if I don't get to Platform 9 ¾ before my train leaves? Lily Evans had gotten her letter accepting her to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was a first year and didn't know anyone there. Her older sister, Petunia, told her that it is easy to get to Platform 9 ¾. You go to the barrier between Platforms 9 and 10 and just walk through. But that was a few years ago, when Petunia talked to Lily, before Petunia was expelled from Hogwarts.
A few years back, Petunia got her letter. Their parents were so happy, and they knew Lily would be accepted as well. Then, during Petunia's second year, she was expelled. Her wand was snapped, and she was kicked out of the wizarding world forever. After that, Petunia hated witches and wizards so strongly that Lily was frightened. When Lily got her letter, Petunia was horrified. For a split second, Lily saw a hurt, jealous look in her older sister's eye. But Petunia's quick temper over-took and she stopped talking to Lily altogether.
Lily's good parents tried to keep what happened to Petunia a secret, but all secrets are found out eventually. Lily and petunia shared a large room that Petunia separated with a sheet, but sheets do not keep noises out. One night, Lily woke-up to her sister's worried voice. She looked over, and Lily saw Petunia was crying out from a nightmare. She kept saying sorry over and over
' I'm so sorry. I didn't mean it! It was a mistake! I didn't mean to kill him! I just got my spell wrong! It wasn't a curse!! It just made him do what I wanted! Wait a second, that was a curse? Oh-no. oh-my-God, I'm so sorry! It's just a read about unicorns in school, and I wanted to ride one. We had been learning about the Imperious Spell in DADA class, I just said it wrong. I'm sorry, can I go back to class now? What?!?! I'm...I'm..I'm EXPELLED?! '
