I gazed out the window as the English country rolled out behind my father's car. The raindrops splattered on the window blurring the view. Gabe turned on some heavy rock music and started singing along. My head began to throb. I began to feel dizzy soon I fell asleep. I suddenly awoke to a blaring train horn we had reached King's Cross station. I looked out the window hundreds of muggles were bustling about, trying to get to their train on time. "I can't find any parking spots," my dad said. "I'm going to drop you off." Gabe jumped out of the car and grabbed his trunk and his owl, Bernie. I was still half asleep. I slowly got out of the back seat with Star, and opened the back of the car and got out my trunk. "Bye Ellie, bye Gabe, be good have fun and write to your mum and I as soon as you get there," My father said. I leaned in to the front seat he kissed my cheek, and said one last goodbye.
My brother woke me up completely with a jab in the ribbs with his wand. "Come on Ellie were gonna' miss the Express." I immeaditly saw my two best friends Tancred and Lena waving at me trying to get my attention. I smiled and waved back. I quickly grabbed my trunk and Star in her cage. Lena had thin glasses, her face was covered with freckles, her straight red hair fell on her shoulders. She was very short and she was also very smart. I grined up at Tancred his shaggy brown hair have him sort of the rebel look. He is very tall and thin. These were my two best friends. We were all in Ravenclaw. Tancred and I were the two beaters on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. We were sort of an odd group the kind that the other kids make fun of, but we didn't care it was just the way we were. Across the way I spotted the legendary Harry Potter and his two cronies Ron and Hermonie. I rolled my eyes. "Hey look guys its the 'tremendous trio'" Tancred said sarcastically as Harry and his friends walked through platform 9 3/4. Why was he so great anyway just the stupid scar that makes everyone want to be his best friend. He was only in his 4th year and us in our 5th he wasn't so great. We watched as wizards pushed through the portal. "We best be going." Lena said. I nodded and walked across the busy station. I looked at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. We said one last goodbye to the modern muggle world and at the count of three we ran into the wall.
