Chapter 4: Books and Runaway Trains
We had entered the scary looking buildings Hagrid was talking to some strange person.
"Harry, did you know that all the bank tellers are goblins?" Nerime smiled. She grabbed my hand and walked me in the direction where Hagrid was.
"No, why are we here?" I asked. Odd whispers echoed around the large room. The feeling was back, the thing that had been following me. Nerime had quickened her pace. She was now practically dragging me toward Hagrid. "Nerime, do you feel that?" I asked in a low voice.
"Shhh, well talk later." We reached Hagrid and he nodded at us. All of us quickly followed the goblin. "Harry, we are going to withdraw some of your money, okay." She smiled at me.
"I have money, but how?" I was surprised. Hagrid chuckled then he moved his head to look at me. The goblin opened the door of a vault. (There was a mountain of gold! I couldn't believe my eyes!)
"Well Harry, you didn't think your parents left you with nothing, did you?" Hagrid smiled. I was so dumbfounded that I had failed to realize that Hagrid followed the bank teller to another vault.
"You're at a loss for words, huh?" Nerime looked at me," Come on lets make your withdrawal so we can pack your things. Tomorrow morning we have a train to catch." I nodded my head.
For the rest of the day I followed Nerime around like a long lost puppy. To me we walked around in circles. When we got back to the place we were staying, Hagrid was at the sink.
"Hagrid! When did you get here?" I was surprised to see him. Hagrid turned around and smiled.
"Why Harry I came straight here after I left the bank. Nerime wanted to go buy a pair of shoes. Weren't you listening when I told you?" Hagrid looked a bit concerned.
"Sorry." I looked down at my feet. Nerime started laughing. She was holding her sides. "What's so funny?"
"You," she was trying to calm herself down. "Eat and get into bed. We have to be on the train by nine." Nerime went into another room. She came out with the blanket and a pillow. She tossed them on the end of the couch. "Hagrid, I'm sleeping in your room; so, make yourself comfortable!" She smiled and went back into the room she had stolen from Hagrid.
The next morning Hagrid said goodbye to us at the train station. We went through the pier (You all know the one. I was really scared when Nerime practically picked me up and threw me at the pier. I thought she was crazy when she told me I could go through it.) and when I loaded my stuff onto the train Nerime pushed me toward the train.
"You'll see me in a few minutes Harry. Go find a seat." I nodded and looked into the doorway. I turned to look for reassurance from Nerime again; only to discover she had disappeared. I entered the train and found a compartment.
"Um, excuse me is this seat taken?" a boy about my age with red hair asked.
"No, you can sit here." I eyed warily at the two empty spots that were left open after the red-headed boy sat down. 'Nerime, where are you!' I thought. The train had already left the station. I wondered whether or not Nerime had been left behind at the station or whether she was lost on the train somewhere.
"My name is Ron Weasly." He held out his hand. I took his hand.
"I'm Harry Potter. Nice to meet you." His eyes widened with shock
"Thee Harry Potter!" I nodded my head. "Is it true . . . you know the scar," again I nodded my head. "May I see it?" he asked. I lifted the hair off of my forehead to show him. "Bloody me, it's true!"
"It is your first time to go to Hogwarts?" I asked
"Yes, Yours too." Ron said pulling out a big brown rat. "This is scabbers and I know a spell to turn him yellow." He grinned.
"Lets see it then." A girl with blondish-brown hair asked. She sat down next to me. "So you're the Famous Harry Potter. My name is Hermione Granger." She held out her hand. I shook it. "So, Weasly lets see your spell."
"All right hear it goes… "He cleared his throat. "Sunshine, lemons, butter melon turn this stupid rat yellow." He tapped the rat on the back with his want. Nothing happened.
"Nice spell. Even I can do a better job then that." Hermione suppressed a giggle. The door of the compartment opened. "That's weird doors don't simply open by themselves
"Your right dear!" a familiar girlish voice replied. A girl suddenly faded in next to Ron. Ron jumped and gave a startled yelp. "Ha, ha, he did you miss me Harry?" It was Nerime.
"How did you do that?" Ron asked. Nerime smiled
"What turn invisible? It's simple really but I'm not authorized to tell you how." Nerime patted Ron on the head.
"Nerime, why did you turn invisible?" I asked. Nerime closed the door. Hermione was still in a bit of a shock.
"Oh! I turned invisible so I could sneak on the train. I didn't have a ticket!" she had a goofy grin on her face.
"WHAT! That is against the rules!" Hermione bellowed.
"I know. Now get into your uniforms I'll . . . the train started to go faster sending everyone off balance. "Something's wrong. I'll go see what it is." Nerime bolted out the door. We followed after her. We ran to the engine of the train.
The people in the cars in front of us were in chaos. The instructors on board were busy calming the other kids down. The older kids were helping the instructors. At the engine room the conductors were trying to fend off ghost like creatures. The creatures were black with a hint of purple aura around them.
("Aahh! MONSTER!" the little boy cried.
"Grandpa! Don't scare him like that." The girl tried to unlatch the little boy from her let. "Alright, but I couldn't help it. That reminds me of the time I conjured up a . . ." Harry was cut off. "Grandpa!" the children interrupted. "Alright, now . . .")
"What are those?" Ron had asked. Nerime pushed all of us behind her. She pulled out a want from out of nowhere.
"Wow, these ghosts like creatures are Simmerans. I've read all about them, but I didn't think that they existed!" Hermione was excited. We all looked at her with curious looks, except Nerime who kept her eyes on the creatures. The conductors ran behind Nerime and were cowering.
"Please save us!" they cried. Nerime lifted her wan and pointed it at the creatures.
"Haaaaaaaaaaa!" Nerime yelled. A light erupted from the wand. The creatures were dissinigrated. We were all dumb founded. She turned to look at us. She had a goofy smile on her face. "Now I believe you all should get your uniforms on and you two get control of the train. I'll tell the news to the rest of the train that the problem is solved!" She pushed back the way we came.
