Chapter 3
The Knight Bus
Harry stood at the curb, looked both ways almost as if he was going to
cross. There was so one on the street, for some reason it was unnerving. He
disregarded the feeling and stuck out his wand arm.
BOOM!
The Knight Bus shot out of the sky and landed next to him. A boy about twenty stepped out of the bus. " 'ello my name is Stan and I'll be your conductor this afternoo. Neville? 'ey Ern, it's Neville! "Huh." said Harry confused. Then he remembered in his third year he was on the run from the ministry of magic for doing a few spells outside of Hogwarts. He had ridden the Knight Bus to escape and said the first name that popped in to his head, Neville Longbottom. "Where are ya goin' today Neville?" Stan asked. "The Burrow" Harry told him. " 'at'll be twelve sickles but for thirteen ya get some pumpkin juice and for fourteen ya get a pumpkin pasty." Harry shoved some gold into Stan's hands and walked toward the bus.
