Chapter 2- On the Hogwarts Express
"Lily dear, which platform is it?" asked Mrs. Evans as they walked towards the station. "Was it 9 or 10?"
"Umm" said Lily awkwardly "I think it was 9, yeah... 9"
So they walked over to platform 9. There was a whole bunch of people dressed to go to the beach sitting on the benches.
"Lily, are you sure this is the right platform?"
Lily sighed, taking out her letter and giving it one last look before breaking the news to her mum. "Umm... mum... it says platform 9 ¾."
"WHAT?" shouted Petunia, Lily's older sister "I knew this was stupid, there's no such thing as stupid magic, I can't believe I believed you... you idiot, you..."
"Petunia, calm down." said Mrs. Evans patting her on the back. People were starting to look at them.
Lily, are you sure it says 9 ¾?" Lily gulped "Positive."
"O.K..." Mrs. Evans was lost for words, she looked to her husband for help, but just then Lily started running off. "Lily..."
Lily ran up to a stranger and talked to them for a while before coming back.
"Lily you shouldn't run off like..."
"Mum" said Lily excitedly "I know where platform 9 ¾ is, you see the people I talked to had an owl so I thought they might be magical. So I went to talk with them and they told me to follow them...come on." she said, grabbing her trolley and pushing it towards the people with the owl.
"Hello, I am Mary Evans" said Mrs. Evans holding out her hand to the lady in front of her.
"Hello Mrs. Evans, I'm Kate, Kate Brown." They shook hands and then Mrs. Brown said, "So is your daughter going to Hogwarts this year?"
"Yes, she is, we didn't actually know about the school until we got the letter."
Mrs. Brown nodded, "My daughter, Natasha is going to Hogwarts this year too and our son, Daniel is in 5th grade this year." Mrs. Brown turned to her daughter, "Natasha, you've already made a friend!" Natasha blushed and smiled at Lily.
"Mum" said Daniel impatiently "Can we go now?"
"Oh yes, O.K., Lily, all you have to do is walk through that barrier over there." Mrs. Brown pointed at the barrier.
Lily stared at her. "Umm... are you sure?"
Mrs. Brown smiled "Daniel you go fist to show Lily."
"O.K Mum." He said before looking around, walking up to the barrier, casually leaning against it and disappearing. Lily gasped.
Mrs. Brown smiled again. "Why don't you go next Lily?"
Mrs. Evans gave Lily a hug. "I think we'll say goodbye here, O.K.?" Lily gave her mum a kiss back, hugged her dad and was about to hug Petunia, but she looked like she was ready to strangle her. So instead Lily gave Petunia a smile and repeated what she had seen Daniel do. She leaned casually on the barrier and fell right through it.
"Whoa..." said Lily looking around her.
"Yeah, whoa." said Natasha smiling, she had followed Lily through the barrier, "That's what I thought when I first saw it." Lily smiled back and saw Mrs. Brown appear too.
"O.K. Natasha." she said giving her a kiss. "Have a good year and don't get into trouble."
"I won't" Mrs. Brown walking off in search for Daniel.
"Let's go find a seat." said Natasha and they started lugging their trunks towards the train.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Remus, have a good year, O.K?" said Mrs. Lupin while standing on platform 9 ¾.
"I will mum."
"Oh... Remus!" she said before giving him a big hug.
"Umm... mum... you can let go now."
"O.K." she said quickly, before straitening herself up. "Have a good trip."
"I will mum." Remus started dragging his trunk up the train and looking for an empty compartment. He found one, put his trunk beside him and sat down.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Now Sirius." Sirius looked up to his Dad's stern face, "Have a good year, but remember to get into Slytherin and..."
"Dad, I don't get to choose which house I get into."
"Sirius, don't interrupt me." He said sternly.
"O.K...can I go now?"
"Just remember to..." But Sirius was gone before he could finish his sentence.
Sirius carried his trunk up the train stairs and started looking for an empty compartment. He opened a door, there was a small boy sitting there with light brown hair and bye eyes. "Umm..." said Sirius," can I sit here?"
I boy looked shocked, "I... I guess so..."
"Thanks." said Sirius smiling, he sat down. "So, what's your name."
"Mine? It's Remus Lupin."
"Remus, huh? Well I'm Sirius Black, you first year?"
Remus nodded. "Me too!"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Do you have to go?" Hailey whined as they walked through the barrier.
"Hails..." James sighed. "I'm sorry, but I have to go." he said impatiently for the millionth time.
"But there will be nothing to do at home without you, it'll be boring, I don't want you to go."
"Hailey..."
"Hailey, James has to go to Hogwarts, O.K.? You'll be going in 4 years too." said Mrs. Potter.
"O.K..."
"James, have a good year, O.K.?" she said giving him a hug.
"Alright."
"Bye" said Hailey, also giving him a hug.
James smiled "I'll be home by Christmas." He walked towards the train, dragging his trunk behind him, and tried to find a compartment. He found one with only two boys in it. "Uh, hi, this seat taken." he asked.
"Nope." said a guy with black hair and twinkling dark brown eyes.
James sat down. "My names James, what's yours?"
"I'm Sirius, and this is Remus, we're both in first year, and you?"
"First year too."
"Cool."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"I can't believe we haven't found a compartment yet." said an exasperated Lily. "I am so tired of hauling this trunk along."
"I know" agreed Natasha. "All the compartments have like heaps of people in them.
"Hmm... we could always go and sit with you're brother, there was only 3 people in his compartment."
"No way." said Natasha quickly. "I'm not sitting with Daniel, he's probably kill me afterwards anyway. I'd rather sit in the corridor than sit with him."
Lily sighed. Suddenly a compartment door opened on the left of them. A girl with long black hair poked her head out. "Sorry, I just over heard you're conversation. If you need a seat then you can sit here."
Lily smiled. "Thanks so much." she said and started heaving her trunk into the compartment. Natasha followed her in and they sat down.
"Hey, I'm Natasha and this is Lily."
"I'm Kayla; this is my first year at Hogwarts."
"Us too!"
-------------- So, how was that? it's longer than the other one. I know still nothing much has happened, but it was better than the other chapter wasn't it. Oh well, in the next chapter more will happen. Please review!
