As Harry rushed down the staircase with his school-stuff, Vernon yelled at him.

'You bring her back! You bring her back now, you put her right--' he started, but Harry pointed his wand at him.

'You aren't allowed to use magic outside of school!' Vernon snapped.

'Oh yeah? Try me.' Harry said.

'You have nowhere to go..' Vernon said quiet.

'I don't care. Anywhere's better than HERE.' Harry said as he pulled his trunk outside.

--------------

It was dark, the only bit of light came from the streetlights. As Harry searched for a place to sit down, Marge floated about fifty feet above him. Harry grinned. He sat down in a weak streetlight, staring in front of him. Suddenly a wind picked up, the playing garden behind him started moving, and the streetlight started to flash. Harry looked around him, as he heard some birds fly up in front of him. He looked at the spot where that sound came from, and saw a dog. A fierce, black dog with amazingly big teeth. Harry grabbed his wand and pointed at the dog, it barked and Harry fell over. Suddenly the dog was gone, as a big blue bus stopped in front of Harry.

'Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand, step aboard and we'll take you anywhere you want to go. My name is Stan Stunpike, and I will be your conductor tonight. Where may we take you tonight?' Someone asked as soon as the bus opened. Harry said nothing and stared at the man, he seemed to be looking around.

When he looked down and saw Harry, he said 'What are you doing down there?',

'.. I fell over' Harry replied.

'What did you fell over for?' He asked.

'Didn't do it on purpose!' Harry snapped as he stands up. He grabs his trunk, but the man takes it from him and enters the bus.

--------------

Harry follows him to the back, seeing wizards and witches in beds all around the bus. He walks to the back of the bus, where Stan, his trunk, and the driver are, too. In front of the driver was an odd head, just hanging there. Harry dropped himself onto a bed while Stan read the newspaper.

'Where do you have to go?' Stan asked suddenly.

'The Leaky Couldron, that's in London' Harry replied.

'Did you hear that, Ern? The Leaky Couldron, that's in London' Stan said to the driver.

The odd head suddenly started to speak. 'Yeah, the Leaky Couldron. Hey, if you have some soup there, be sure to eat it before it eats you! Hahaha!' he said.

The busdriver suddenly started the bus, as it zoomed towards Harry's ending destination, The Leaky Couldron.

Harry stared at the front page of Stan's paper, that was turned to him.

'Who is that? That man?' Harry asked, while pointing at the man on the front page.

'Who is that?! Who is that?! That is Sirius Black, mister, that is!' Stan snapped at him. 'Don't tell me you've never heard anything of Sirius Black?' Stan asked, Harry didn't reply. 'He's a murderer. Got himself locked up in Azkaban for it.'

'How did he escape?' Harry asked.

'Well that's the question, isn't it? He's the first one to done it!' Stan replied. 'He was a big supporter of.. you-know-who.. Reckon you've heard of him?' He asked.

Harry remained silent for a while. 'Yeah.. Him I've heard of..' he replied.

Suddenly, the head started yelling at Ern, the driver. 'Ern, little old lady at twelve 'o clock!'

The bus, which still was zooming about, suddenly made a harsh stop that made Harry crash against the window. The muggle-lady slowly walked past, the bus started racing again as soon as the she was gone. A little minute later, the bus immediately braked in front of the Leaky Couldron, causing Harry to crash against the window again.

Suddenly a small man came in.

--------------

'Ah, mister Harry Potter. We've been expecting you.' He said.
