Chapter III: The trip to Hogwarts

It was 9:45 in the morning and everyone was scrambling around.

"Is everything packed and ready to go?" asked Arthur. He shut the car trunk and looked at the kids.

"Yes," they all said and then they began to get into the car

"Wait. I made you all something to eat when you're on the train," yelled Molly. She ran out from the house and gave then all sandwich bags. "They're corned beef sandwiches, I hope you like them."

"Oh we will," said Ron forcing a smile instead of a disgusting look.

When they were all seated in the car, they waved good bye to Molly.

The traffic was bad but they got to Kings Cross before eleven. Arthur helped them put their trunks on a trolley and then showed them the barrier to the platform.

"Now to get on to platform 9¾ all you need to do is to walk straight at the barrier between platforms nine and ten. Good luck at school," said Arthur.

They thanked him one last time and then they went through the barrier. When they saw the scarlet engine they knew that this is was it and there was no turning back now. They found and empty compartment near the end of the train. They shoved their trunks in and they quickly took their seats.

"Phew, we made it," said Ron.

"So what exactly are we going to do when we get to Hogwarts?" asked Harry.

"We first find Dumbledore or McGonagall and tell them that we're exchange students, and hopefully we're resorted into Gryffindor,' said Hermione.

"Hopefully, don't you mean certainly?" asked Ron.

"No hopefully," she said.

The train began to move, and they began their journey.

Half past twelve a woman slid back the door and said, "Anything off the trolley?"

Both Harry and Ron said no and held up their sandwich bag, but Hermione got up and bought handful of treats.

"You must be hungry," said Ron.

"I didn't buy this all for me silly," she grabbed two boxes of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and gave it to them.

When the food was almost gone, Hermione and Ron got up to change into their school robes. When they left, Harry felt a little tired, so he grabbed a pillow and a blanket that was under his seat. He had his eyes closed for less than a minute when the door slid open. Two guys came in laughing.

"Oh we're sorry. We didn't mean to disturb you," said the one with brown and gray hair.

He took another look at Harry and smiled. He then turned around and stopped his friend from leaving.

"Hey Pete, we don't have to leave. Look who we found," he said.

"Potter I thought you're pestering a group of Slytherins," said Pete.

"W-what?" asked Harry in a sleepy tone.

"Last time Rem and I saw you, you had an evil smile on and where walking towards some Slytherins" said Pete.

"I-I-."

Harry was cut off when the door opened again and this time there was a guy with black hair and a girl with red hair.

"Hey mate, we've been looking for you all. We need to come up with some ideas to pull off during the beginning of the year prank," said the boy with black hair.

Harry got a closer look at him and then he realized that he was the guy that gave him the money to pay for his books.

"Sirius you're right, what should we do?" ask Pete.

"Maybe we should sneak into their common room, grab all of their clothes and die them hot pink," said Rem

"Maybe later but we need to pull something off during the banquet," said Sirius.

"How about spicing their food and putting salt in their goblets," smiled the girl.

"Lil, that is brilliant," said Sirius. "What do you think-Ja"

They looked over at Harry and he was asleep. They were about to wake him up but the door slid open and this time it was Ron and Hermione.

"Excuse me, this is our compartment and what are you doing to our friend?" asked Ron.

"Your friend no, he is not. This is our friend. He and I been friends since we were 5," said Sirius.

"I'm sorry but you must have been mistaken him with someone else," said Hermione.

"No I'm telling you that this guy is my best mate," Sirius said.

Just then Harry turned and when he did so did the hair on his forehead moved and everyone saw his scar

"Wow!"

"Was there blood?" asked Rem.

"Who gave it to him?" asked Pete.

"He's so cute," said Lil.

"Who is he? He's not James," said Sirius.

They were all talking so fast that Ron and Hermione couldn't give them a straight answer. They all stopped when they heard a lot of slashes and some screams.

"Ooh looks like we found James. He must have used the water balloons," said Pete." We need to go."

They got up and began to leave.

"Sorry to have disturbed you," said Lily. And she was soon gone.

Hermione check the door and they both looked at Harry. He turned some more and slowly opened his eyes.

"What are you staring at?" yawned Harry.

"Oh it was nothing. Go back to sleep," said Hermione and then she grabbed Ron and they went out of the compartment.

But Harry didn't go back to sleep and began listening to their conversation.

"Should we tell him who was in the compartment while he was sleeping?" asked Ron.

"No. We should just pretend that it never happened," said Hermione. "Harry will find out that they're alive at school. I just hope he doesn't do anything stupid that would change history."

"Sorry Hermione but you don't know how it is like to live without your parents. I must and I will warn them about Peter," whispered Harry.

He then heard the door opening and quickly shut his eyes. After pretending to be asleep for 10 minutes the compartment door went opened.

There were three guys. The one that entered in was tall and skinny. His blond hair was slick back. The two other guys were tall, built big, like they could play American football, and they had a dumb expression on their faces.

The blond haired boy looked at all three with his cold gray eyes.

"So you must be the new students people are talking about," he said. "I'm Lucius, Lucius Malfoy."

Ron gagged on a jelly slug that he was eating.

Lucius automatically turned his head and gave Ron a killing look.

"Do you have a problem with my name? Well I don't have to ask for yours. Red hair, pale face and freckles, you must be a Weasley and from looking at your new robes your family will starve for a month," said Lucius.

Ron's hands began to form into fists and his eye brows went down. He was about to get up, but Harry placed his hand on his shoulder.

"He's not a Weasley you idiot," said Hermione. "You should get his name before jumping into conclusions."

"Not a Weasley, well you sure look like one" asked Lucius.

"We know the family really well," said Ron.

"And you're actually admitting to that?" laughed Lucius.

"Yeah, and what is wrong with that?" asked Ron.

"The Weasley's are the laughing stock of the wizarding world. After what Arthur had done he made the Weasley name a disgrace. No one in his family will talk to him, or his friends. That's what he gets for trusting a muggle," laughed Lucius.

As he was laughing Ron's fists were tightening even more.

"Hey Lucius, we need to go," said one of his dumb friends.

"I'll see you all at school," said Lucius and then he turned to Ron and he lifts his eyebrows, then he left.

"Ugh, I don't think I could stand him," said Ron.

"He can't be as bad as Draco," said Harry.

"He might be trouble. Just watch out he's a Death Eater remember," warned Hermione.

"Right."

Lucius was the last one to enter their compartment. When there were only 5 minutes till they reached Hogwarts they went over their plan again.

"Okay, we first find Professor Dumbledore or McGonagall and tell them that we're new. We get resorted into Gryffindor and the next day we begin to look up information," said Hermione. "Just remember that just being here is affecting history. We can't risk altering anything else."

"Don't worry. This is easy as 1, 2, 3," said Ron.

The train slowly began to slow down and soon it came to a stop and they were at Hogsmeade station.
