Chapter 4
Five minutes and seven stops later,Jane and Jean were getting off the Knight Bus.
"Thanks for riding the Knight Bus,"said the driver.
"Bye!"the twins cried,while pulling the trunks off.
Right as the bus started moving,Jean cried,"Wait,I forgot something!"
The kindly old driver pulled over and she ran back to the bed where they had sat.Jean reached under thhe bed and pulled out a white wicker basket.
"Thank Merlin,you remembered me!"cried an all white cat inside the basket.
"Really,Flowers,did you think we'd leave you?"said Jean.
"Well,I thought you might!"said Flowers.
"All right let's go,"said Jean.
Jean strolled down the aisle.They had been the last ones off the bus.She stopped and thanked the driver for letting her get Flowers.
Then she got off the bus and found Jane already had their luggage on a trolley.
"Thanks for loading mine too,"said Jean.
"No problem,"said Jane.
Together,the twins walked into King's Cross Station.
******************************
"Hey,Ron,who do you think they are?"asked Harry.
"I don't know but they sure are pretty,"
"I guess they're new to Hogwarts,"said Harry.
"Why do you say that?"asked Ron.
"Because they have a cat and an owl,"said Harry.
(A/N I don't knnow where Hermione is during this)
"Oh,"said Ron.
"That red hair remminds me of my mom,"said Harry,but he mayy as well have been talking to a tree because Ron was apparently deaf to the the world and drowning in their prettiness.
******************************
"Hey,how do we get on the platform?It says platform 9 3/4 but all I can see is platform 9 and platform 10!"said Jane.
"Why don't we ask them?"said Jean ,pointing at Harry and Ron.
"Why them?"asked Jane.
"Because they have owls,"said Jean.
"Oh,that's good enough for me!"said Jane happily.
The twins carefully placed Flowers a top their trunks and started walking over to Harry and Ron.
******************************
"RON,CLOSE YOUR MOUTH!"whispered Harry.
"Oh,sorry!"said Ron.
"Um,hi,we are,um,new students to Hogwarts and we don't know hom to,ah,get on the platform and could you please show us?"said Jean.
"We are from the United States,"added Jane.
Harry laughed because he remembered his first time getting in the platform.
"See that barrier?"Harry pointed at the one between platforms 9 & 10.
"Harry,do you think they're blind?Of course they can see the barrier!"said Ron.
Harry ignored Ron's comment and said"Well,all you have to do is walk through it."
"Really?"said Jean doubtfully.
"Yes,really,"laughed Harry.
"Watch us!"said Ron.
"I'll come back to escort you through the barrier.Ron,make sure that our stuff gets loaded.We don't want to be without clothes!"said Harry.
"Sounds good to me,"said Jean.
With that,Harry and Ron walked towards the platform.They got on and almost immediately Hermione appeared.
"Where have you been?The train leaves in ten minutes and I don't want you to have to make another entrance like you did in our second year!"Mione said.(A/N keep in mind here,Mione is short for Hermione.)
"Oh,Mione,I need to talk to you when I come back.I finally remembered to get you a birthday present!"said Harry.
"Oh,dear,I forgot again!"said Ron unhappily.
"Oh,Harry,you didn't have to!"said Hermione.
"But I wanted to,"said Harry,"Now,I need to go show the girls how to get on the platform."
With that,Harry left.
"The girls?Who is that?"said Hermione.
"Oh,they are two transfer students from the U.S.They are really nice and extremely nervous about going to Hogwarts,"said Ron.
"Oh,"said Mione.
********************************
Harry reemerged from the platform and into the station.
"Are you ready?"he asked.
The girls nodded and Harry bowed and said"Your luggage,please."causing them both to laugh.
He rolled the trolley towards the barrier.Jean looked at the seemingly solid wall,closed her eyes and walked through,followed by Jane and Harry.
"There,see,that wasn't hard was it?'Harry asked.
"Nope!"the twins chorused.
A/N Please,please R/R!
