"It felt strange to me at the time, that you and I received such similar wands, yet opposites. Yet, felt nice, almost made our friendship feel extra special It's not until we arrived at the Train, that I realized that things were different. Never to be the same again."
A few hours later the families arrived at King Cross Station. Justin had picked his pet, a gray cat named Juliet. When he entered the shop earlier the original owner of the cat wished to return it saying that, the cat wasn't what his child wanted. Juliet looked at him with sad eyes, and Justin knew he had to have her. The rest of the items on the list had been checked off, now it was time, time for them to enter station nine and three quarters. "This is rubbish, there is most certainly no station of that type here.". Mrs Calgory pointed out. Mrs. Henderson pointed out a rather odd bunch of people. Who she just saw vanish into thin air by running into a wall. "Guess that must be it" She replied. The families disappeared into the wall. Not before each one touched it with amazement and fright.
Once on the other side, there stood on the tracks. A large train with the words Hogwart's Express written on it. "This must be it Angela" squeaked. Justin hugged his parents good-bye. For him this would be the first time he will ever have been gone from his parents for such a long time. Angela on the other hand didn't seem sad. She had grown use to the idea of not seeing her parents for long spurts because of work. They both said they're good-byes though and stepped onto the train.
Angela dragged Justin down the hall way looking for a booth to sit in. They found a room with two other student sitting in it. Already wearing there robes. One was a 5th year boy, who went by the name of Michael O'Christy and the other a 1st year boy named Josh. Angela asked if they could come sit with them and the boys did not turned them down. It seemed Michael was muggle born, while Josh came from a wizarding family. Angela asked Michael about Hogwarts and seemed very inquisitive. . Michael explained about what all Hogwarts was, and about the houses. "Houses?" she asked. "Yes, Hogwarts is divided into different houses. Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin". " I myself am in Ravenclaw". You both will be sorted into one of these houses. Hopefully neither of you will be Slytherin's you both seem to nice".
At what could almost seem like a invitation by just the name of Slytherin. A young blond boy, who had a air about him that made him seem, more spectacular then he really was, stepped into the cart. "I wouldn't speak mug blood". The blond hair boy gave Michael a dirty look. "Draco Malfoy, I didn't know you came in. strange, I can usually smell you Slytherin types from your stench." Michael replied calmly. Justin laughed lightly, not wanting to get into the battle. Draco turned to Justin quickly and gave him a quick glare. My father wants you out of that school Michael, just like all the other mug bloods you just prepare for that day to come." he said with a high arrogance of him. On the way out Draco noticed Angela staring at him, almost with a look of awe. "And what are you staring at?" he said. Angela quickly turned her head " and said "nothing, sorry". Draco stormed out of the room looking for two people named Crabbe and Goyle.
"Who was that?" Justin exclaimed. Michael took a breath and began to speak "Draco Malfoy is his name. His father is a high and mighty big wig to say the least in the wizarding world. They don't like muggle born wizards, and believe only pure bloods, should be allowed to attend our school. It's believed his father worked for the You know who"
"No who?" Justin asked. Michael shook his head and said "Never mind not important I'm sure you'll learn about it someday, but I'd watch out for him you two, he's not much for our kind, and especially non Slytherin folk." Michael turned to Josh who was reading a book on "Magical Potions Gone Haywire". The two seemed to start talking about it, and left Justin a chance to talk to Angela. Who seemed to almost be in a daze.
"Everything ok Angela?, you seem something's bothering you" Justin remarked. "No, everything's fine just not feeling good" "Well don't worry, I won't let anybody like that Malfoy character bother you, will stick together and nothing can stop us." Justin said sitting up and acting very tough to get a laugh out of the now, sickly looking Angela. Whatever was bothering her, Justin didn't know, but it bothered him as much. As the train rolled on, he talked to Michael and learned more about the things ahead. Angela on the other hand had fallen asleep.
