The ride to Kings Cross station was a peaceful one, as everyone in the
Potter's mini-van was far too tired to talk. Lily Potter fiddled impatinly
with her top button of the muggle t-shirt her Aunt Petunia had given her
for her birthday. She was glad Celestral and Kole were starting their first
year too, at least she'd know some people. Of course there was Amberle,
Celestral's older sister, and Brian, Kole's older brother. "Here we are"
her father said pulling into the parking lot of Kings Cross. Lily jumped
anxiously out and hoped from one foot to another as her father loaded hers
and Tracy, her older sister, trunks unto a trolly. Then he lead the way to
the Barrier that lead onto platform 9 and ¾, where they met the Hogwarts
Express to go to school. "Okay Tracy, Lily you first" her mother said. Lily
and her mother looked a lot alike. They both had golden-red hair and heart
shaped faces. They'd even been mistaken for sisters. Lily smiled at her
mother before going through. Her father followed with Joel and Joey behind
them, her two youngest brothers. The barrier changed before her very eyes
and platform 9 and ¾ materlized before her eyes. The train was just as
Tracy had explained it. A scarlet steam engine stood before them. It was
the most beautiful train she'd ever seen. "Lily!!!" she turned to see her
best friend and cousin, Celestral Weasley, come running towards her.
"Celes!" she cried happily, glad to have found her best friend. The two
girls embraced warmly and started talking at once. "come on Girls, get on
the train" Lily hugged her mother and father, and tickled Joey and Joel.
"I'll send you loads of owls" she head Celestral tell her little sister,
Lily, who was clinging onto Celestral and crying. Finially the train pulled
from the station and disappeared from sight
