The Crystalline Glass
The Arrival of Morgan Le'Font
It was nine fourteen in the evening when I stepped off of the train. The air around me shimmered with the excitement of the first years, and the noise pressing on my ears made my head spin.
It was all so intoxicating.
"Morg'n, there yeh are!" An enormous man pushed his way through the sea of students, many of whom were gawking at him as though they had never seen someone quite like him, which they probably hadn't.
"Hello, Hagrid, good evening to you."
"Ah Morg'n don' be so stiff, com' on now, yeh can go up t' the castle with the firs' years."
"No thank you, Hagrid, I can make my own way up with the rest of the school."
"Ah, com on Morg'n, don' miss out on all the fun!"
Inwardly I sighed as I gave in, settling into a boat with three other small wizerdlings. A small girl sat across from me, her silky brown hair cut shoulder-length. She seemed to be enjoying herself, although thoroughly frightened. Sitting at her right was a large Egyptian boy, his face was tan and looked as though it had seen a few days in harsh wind. Looking to my right I took note of the boy sitting next to me, a fairly willowy looking boy with expressive blue eyes.
"Hey," A small voice broke the short silence that I was enjoying, "Hey, Hi!" The girl who sat across from me spoke, her voice soft from shyness, "Hi, I'm Pat," she said, "Pat Louise."
"Morgan Le'Font, pleased to meet you." I said, shaking hands with her. I turned to the Egyptian boy, "And you are?"
"Horus," He said in a voice like shadows in the desert, "I come from Egypt, my mother really likes their mythology, so she named me after one of the gods."
I shook his hand and smiled, "So good to have a name like that, mine is one as well, my mother named me after a Celtic goddess."
He smiled back at me and I could feel the relief of acceptance sweep over him. His eyes held mine for a moment, then turned away, as though shut off from the world once more. Feeling the boat rock in the water, I looked up to locate its cause.
"Firs' years! Firs' years, over ere'! Four to a boat, no more." Hagrid's voice drifted away as the boat set sail, seemingly propelled by an invisible force, namely magic.
"This is terribly exciting, isn't it?" Pat said, unable to hold her control any longer, "I mean, I never even knew magic existed up until a few months ago." She giggled sweetly, " My letter came for me in the night, mum was ever so frightened," another little giggle, "she hates birds!"
I gave a little laugh, then the Horus began to speak.
"My mother always knew that I was a wizard, our family goes back loads, at least on my mothers side, we would always perform simple tricks for visiting muggles in our shop in Cairo. My mother's a temple priestess who shows the tourists around. It' s great fun, you should see how their eye's almost pop out of their heads when they see the coffin containing 'Osiris' appear, they have the greatest expressions."
"What about you, Morgan? How did you get your letter?" Pat asked me. She was peering at me with eyes round as the moon at midnight. Sweet darkness, her excitement was intoxicating, I thought to myself as I smiled.
"Oh, I didn't, I'm actually not a first year, I am in my third year and have transferred from Baubauxtons."
"Oh how wonderful! Do you know some magic then?" Pat squealed, balling her fists up under her throat in excitement.
"Come on, let's see it!" Horus said.
"We can't now." I turned to my left to look at the boy next to me. He hadn't spoken the whole trip and it was a bit of disturbance to hear from him now; I had forgotten he was there, "I'm Peter, my friends call me Pippit, and we can't because we're here."
Our company was silenced as a hush fell over the first years as we docked at the end of the lake. Somewhere in the back of the fleet of boats a voice rang out.
"Welcome ter Hogwarts."
*Whee! Tell me if you liked it, should I write more, the plot gets very complex from now on, so review!!! **********
Hope ya like it.
