Intro
The day Sirius had been waiting for the day when he would leave to go to Hogwarts. Problem was he had another eight hours and fifty nine seconds until he was considered, in his mind, home free. He rolled over in his bed pleading with himself to go to sleep wishing that it was morning. He was so anxious to see what Hogwarts was really like. Was it everything it was said to be? Sirius new in his heart that it would be more to him than it ever was to anyone else for it would be an escape form his family.
The formidable Blacks, what was there to say about them? Their actions had proved them to be one of the most powerful wizarding, pureblood, families in the world, with that they had also shamed their names and had chosen alliances, which in Sirius's mind, were evil. Rich? Yes. But open to people who were not purebloods and not desiring to join the Dark Lord's minions? No.
In Sirius's mind, being pureblooded was nice, but it didn't mean everything about a person. After having several arguments with his parents and having "accidentally" associating with half bloods or less, had taught him to keep his thoughts to himself.
Tired of day dreaming, he sat up in his bed and yawned. He stared once again at his clock to make sure that he had not read the clock wrong and rose from his bed. He was very tall for his age, and according to the females he had known, very handsome. He had a sharp face, with a genuine smile. His teeth were white compared to his olive complexion and dark hair, almost black, was laid knotted on his head. Sighing to himself, he grabbed his bath robe and slippers and headed down the stairs of the Black family mansion.
As he walked, he glanced up at the murals on the wall. His family portrait was his favorite, his mother, father and little brother stood huddled in a group hug as Sirius paced in and out of the picture on the side, looking very angry.
At the bottom of the stairs his Hogwarts supply laid ready for the day ahead. He smiled slightly at the thought of leaving the dreaded place. His parents hated him and the only reason he really stayed was for his younger brother's sake.
Sirius sat down on the couch strategically placed next to the door and laid back and slowly fell asleep.
WHAM!! Sirius fell on the hard wood floor and stared up as his mother and father rushed around him getting everything ready for the trip to the train station. "Don't just lay there on the floor Sirius GET UP!" His mother screeched at him.
Sirius pulled himself off the ground and grabbed his Hogwarts robes and went into his bedroom to change. When he was dressed he looked into the mirror, sleeked back his thick blackish brown hair and left the room.
He had obviously had taken longer than his parents had wanted as they pushed him out the door telling him to hurry. Glancing down at his witch, he noticed he still had a hour before the train left. Skipping breakfast was a disappointment, but knowing that this would be the last time he'd be in his house for a year warmed his heart. "When you get to platform nine and ten run between the pillar.", his parents said while shutting him in a cab.
Sirius arrived at the train station quickly, which surprised him for muggle taxis never seem to get anywhere quickly but rather get stuck in a traffic jam. He walked into the large station smiling and found his platform he also found a rather distressed brunette in Hogwarts robes pacing back and forth. "Do you need help?" Sirius asked kindly.
"HELP! Why would I need help from you?" She glared at him and sat down on her trunks.
"Well you don't seem to be able to get onto the plat—"
"I can perfectly well get on to the platform, I just don't know where it is!", the girl practically screamed at him.
"I can help you there, simply walk between the barriers nine and ten."
the girl stared and, to Sirius's belief, realized he to was wearing a Hogwarts robe and was getting strange from passersby. "Oh, I'm so sorry for yelling it just I didn't realize… well… you know." The girl stuttered to say with a light smile.
"Sirius Black and I don't think I caught your name?" Sirius asked.
"Lily, Lily Evans." She spoke quietly now and hurried away onto the platform.
Behind her stood Sirius, favorite cousin, Bellatrix Le Strange giving Sirius a dark glare. "Helping mudbloods now? I didn't not except such lowness from you."
She shot past, her cloak flowing out behind her. Sirius muttered curses under his breath as he made it through the platform and boarded the train. He sat by himself in his compartment every so often glancing at his watch to see when the train would leave. A boy walked into the compartment, obviously a first year like Sirius, with jet black hair and striking blue eyes. Sirius immediately recognized him as a Potter and shifted uncomfortably in his seat. Knowing that if his parents knew he was here sitting with him they would kill him. Screw your parents Sirius, he said to himself, you're not at home any more!
"Hi, I'm James Potter." The boy said.
"Sirius, Sirius Black." Sirius stated.
Potter made a confused face, seeing that he made have made a mistake sitting with him for he knew the black reputation. "It's alright I'm not gonna hex you mate." Sirius said while watching Potter thinking hard about something in his head.
"If you did I'd just curse you right back." He said with a smile.
I imagine you would, but I really don't feel like sending some one to the hospital wing the first day." Sirius grinned.
"James laughed, "I doubt you could pull that off, on your first day."
"But you could?"
"While leave that up to you, whether you want to find out or not."
They sat their in silence, but Sirius new he had already found his first friend.
The train whistle blew as they began to pull away from the Platform. A ruffled haired boy with pale skin and brown hair opened the compartment door," Can I sit here?"
"Yeah sure take a seat," Sirius said, as he glanced to look out the window.
"I'm Remus, Remus Lupin."
James sat up in his seat and said "James Potter, and that over there is Sirius Black though he says he won't hex us on the train."
Remus stared in confusion, but said nothing. "He's just joking," Sirius stated" I'm not like the rest of them."
"The rest of…" Remus asked anxiously.
"My family" , Sirius replied.
Remus nodded in understanding. Every wizarding family knew who the Blacks were and Sirius knew that their reputation would follow him everywhere.
The boys quickly became friends having many silly conversations on the train as it slowly approached Hogwarts.
