It was the day that Ann-Marie went to hogwarts, she woke up at about five o'clock in the morning to get ready, she was so excited she couldn't sleep any more. She was ready by about half past five and she ran into her parents' room to wake them up.
"MUM, DAD WAKE UP, IT'S THE DAY I GO TO HOGWARTS!" yelled out Ann-Marie.
"Ann, its half past five in the morning" said her dad
"I couldn't sleep, please can you take me now?"
"No, because the platform will still be shut by the time we get there" said her mum
"Oh, please" said Ann-Marie
"Look, I'll help you get ready now ok?" said her mum
"but I am ready!" said Ann-Marie
"Is your new owl, brownie ready? Hmm" Ann-Marie's mum had caught her there.
"Ok, fine help me get her ready" replied Ann-Marie
Ann-Marie and her mum got her owl ready and at seven o'clock they ate breakfast, Ann-Marie ate hers in about five minutes. At eight o'clock they left for the train.
They walked down towards the platforms until they reached platform nine and platform ten.
"Mum, where's nine and three quarter's?" asked Ann-Marie, he mum took her hand and lead her through the wall with her dad following after. Suddenly a lot of the other children stopped and turned when they saw Ann-Marie's dad.
"IT'S HARRY POTTER!" and suddenly her dad was surrounded by people asking for autographs. Ann-Marie was used to this, it had been happening as long as she could remember. Her parents went and helped Ann-Marie with her suitcase. Then she had to go on the train.
"By Ann, well miss you so much," said her mother giving her a hug
"Ann, keep writing to us yeah," said her dad, Ann-Marie nodded and gave him a hug. And went to an empty compartment. She waved to her parents out the window and waited till they went out of sight before she stopped. She sat down and read her book, She then saw a girl walk past, She had red hair and blue eyes, and she looked rather lost. As she walked past Ann-Marie opened the compartment door and said to here.
"Excuse me, do you need somewhere to sit?" the girl nodded "Well do you want to come sit in here?"
"Yeah, ok thanks," said the girl coming in to the compartment and sitting opposite her.
"I'm Crystal Maybell by the way," said the girl
"I'm Ann-Marie Potter," said Ann-Marie, the girl looked shocked.
"As in Ginny and Harry Potter's daughter?" asked Crystal
"Yeah, the same one," said Ann-Marie
"So what's your dad like?" she asked
"He's pretty cool actually, he brought me a broomstick for my birthday"
Ann-Marie and Crystal talked for hours. Suddenly they heard somebody yelling mud-blood at someone, they looked out the door and there was a group of people throwing things at a girl with dirty blond hair and glasses. Ann-Marie, saw her and said
"Hey, pssst, in here quick" the girl looked at her and ran inside their compartment.
"You Ok?" The girl nodded "If there being horrible about you being muggle born or something ignore them, their nasty people."
"Thanks, erm can I ask who you two are" said the girl
"I'm Crystal Maybell"
"And I'm Ann-Marie Potter"
"As in, Ginny and Harry Potter" asked the girl. Ann-Marie nodded. "Wow, well I'm Alicia Stargaze," said the girl.
They all became really good friends on the train. It turned out Alicia had an older brother in the year above them. Ann-Marie was glad that she had found some good friends.
