Chapter 5:On the Hogwarts Express
Ok so Recap:Elizabeth just had her dream...or should I say
prediction.And thus the next day is the day they would Board the Express
which will take them off to Hogwarts for yet another year.So let's she what
happens.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*~*~*~
Elizabeth was late,already.She rushed down the steps
of the Leakey Cauldron,her trunk making loud thuds as she Dragged it behind
herself.She rushed out of the leakey cauldron,it seemed it would be
impossible to make it but she had her ways,her broom and wand.She quickly
mounted it,mumbling an invisiblity spell and kicked off.She could feel the
cold,morning air brushing on her face as she flew through the air at top
speed.She watched as Muggles drove around,trying to beat traffic.She let
out a sigh and then she could finally see the train station,she went in for
a dive as she went flying through one of the doors.She went to a
corner,took off the spell and got a trolley,rushing to where Platforms 9
and 10 were.she looked at the wall between and ran through,it was still
there,releasing loads of steam as the train got ready to leave.She stood
there for a moment admiring it but,she snapped back to reality and rushed
to have her stuff put on the train.she ran onto the train gasping for air
and then she began looking for an empty compartment to sit in,most seemed
full.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Harry sat in a compartment with Ron,who was trying to
keep Pig quiet,and Hermione,working to make sure her essays got extra
credit for their length.Harry let out a sigh at this Ron looked at him,but
Ron knew the expression upon his face,the"I know i sighed,but i don't want
you to ask me whats wrong" expression.Ron frowned and continued trying to
hush the small owl.Harry's thoughts rushed around thinking,wondering about
Elizabeth,which he had done so since they met up at Diagon Alley.He thought
of her weird actions as normal,afterall he'd known her since 3rd yr,but
these actions were unusual,and soon Harry began to think she was avoiding
him.......she had found something out....and Harry could feel it in the pit
of his empty stomach that he was right.At that moment,the compartment door
slid open and who stood there?Harry's very own Elizabeth,she smiled at the
trio.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Hello you guys"Elizabeths hushed voice said.Ron nodded a
greeting,while Hermione moved her scrolls of parchement,inkand set of
quills to make room for elizabeth to sit
"Hello Elizabeth,Pleasure to see you again,Now you can tell me
about your studies at Durmstrang this summer,i mean course i know that they
teach some of the same things,but they do teach other;s"Hermione said,but
Elizabeth wasn't really listening,she was looking at Harry studying him,his
green eyes were avoiding looking at her,so she made sure she sat beside
Harry even if she knew the truth about who murdered his parents.
"Hello Harry"she said,Hermione was still talking as she
searched through her overly packed bookbag.Harrys eyes instantly rose from
it's spot on the ground and looked at Elizabeth
"Hello"His voice seemed cracked.She kept that same smile
plastered on her face.Elizabeth thought of leaving the compartment,sensing
the tension between the 2 of them,strangely so did Ron and Hermione.Both
Harrys and Elizabeths mouths stayed closed not daring to strike up
conversation,Harry knew that only questions would escape his lips and
Elizabeth knew only lies would escape hers.Soon both of them turned their
hands from each other as if it were too painful to look at each other.Soon
Ron and Hermione realized it would be their job 2 keep the 2 from ripping
out each others throat,They knew this wouldn't be easy even if they were
good friends.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~
Hours flew by,the silence had been broken by laughter and
talk.....from Ron and Hermione,then after 3 hours of no talking Harry
finally asked Elizabeth the question that had been flip flopping in the pit
of his stomach
"Elizabeth,did you hear about the dance they are planning
to throw for Halloween?"Harry said,Elizabeth looked at him expecting a
completely different question.She simply nodded,Harrys face lit up,Hermione
and Ron smiled as they watched their 2 friends
"Thats good to hear,well i was wondering if you'd like to
go....I want to make sure i have a date,and get you before anyone else
does"Harry asked,his face going red slightly,Elizabeth simply nodded
again,and at that moment when Harry opened his mouth to speak,Malfoy,Crabbe
and Goyle burst in.
