Chapter 7:
Threstrals

It was Dark when they arrived. The train came to a hault, and the pile of smoke came out in great groups. Draco and Gabi were still eating their Bertie bott's.Gabi felt the train stop and give a jolt. "I think where're here"she said. Draco looked down at himself.

"Iam not even in my robes"

"Neither am I.." they looked at each other and burst in to laughter. "Oh well"said Gabi.Draco saw the students climbing out of the train. "We should be getting out" said Draco. "Yea" they walked out after gathering their things. Draco pulled his robes over his clothes.He would change once he was in his dorm. They made their way off the train and on to the platform.It was crowded, he then heard the familiar voice of the great oaf, as Draco calls him.Calling the first year over.Gabi followed closely behind him.Draco spotted pansy,crabbe,and goyle looking around for him.Draco really didn't want to be with them, so he grabbed gabi arm and pulled her towards a carriage."What was that for?" she asked startled by his behavior. "Oh...I just wanted to get away from some certain people"he said.She looked at him and shook her head side to side.Draco stuck his head outside to see if they had gone,when the carriage began to move.Draco looked to what was pulling it and gasped."Holy shit!" he exclaimed.In Front of him were the ugliest creatures ever.They had no skin and were greasy, they had pupil less eyes and instead it was all white."What is it?"asked Gabi,as she stuck her head out also. "Wh-what are those things!?"he exclaimed pointing at the creatures."What are you talking about?" she asked, not seeing anything at what he was pointing at. "That!! Look! what are those things pulling the carriages!"he said, he couldn't believe that she didn't see them."What exactly am I suppose to be looking at?"she asked again puzzled by his reactions.This reminded him of something,last year in Care of Magical Creatures, Hadgrid had showed them something but no one could see them except certain people like Potter.Draco remembered asking the same question. It just hit him."They are winged horses, with no skin and pupil less eyes....I learned about them last year...Only i have forgotten its name"said Draco. Then Gabis brain clicked."Oh!! those things!"said Gabi,"they begin with a T..the- no thre- no no that's not it! three! no that's number!" she said trying hard to think of the name.Draco laughed at her atempts."THRESTRALS!"she yelled out loud. "But....how can you see them? I mean....you can only see them when you have seen someone....die...Have you ever seen any one die before?"she asked quietly.Dracos eyes widen and began to sting, as the water filled in. He blinked and looked away quickly."My...my...Mother"he said Finally."Oh...Draco Iam so so sorry..."she said softly.She looked at him."Its okay.."he said as he turned and looked outside at the Threstrals.
"You can't see them can you?"

"No"

"I wish I couldn't either"
