Albus Severus, Boy of intelligence
Chapter 2: The New Friends
"F-fran-nk…..L-longbottom", he said in a very stuttering voice.
"Oh, so you're the son of Neville Longbottom, I see. Cool! My dad and mum both know your dad very well." Albus said.
"What's your name and who are you're da-d-d and mu-m-m?" Frank asked Albus.
"Albus Severus is his name and his dad and mum are Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley", Rose replied for Albus.
"Yeah, what she said", said Albus.
"The Harry Potter? The man who killed you-know-who?", Frank was very surprised.
"I don't know the details, my dad never tells me about his past adventures," Albus said in a very calm voice.
"Ah, that's good. So, which house do you want to be sorted into?" Frank changed the subject very quickly.
"Good question, I didn't quite think of that yet….My mum and dad were in Gyffindor, but my brother says I'd go into Slytherin, I don't know, it's up to the sorting hat".
"..Yeah, you're right, I want to be sorted in Gryffindor, what about that girl?", he was referring to Rose.
"Gryffindor", she replied very quickly.
"Ok, How much time's left to Hogwarts?" just as Frank asked that, the Candy Trolley was at their compartment.
"3 hours and 32 minutes, Would you sweeties like any sweets?" she asked very nicely. She had long pink hair and blue robes. Her nose was very long and her face was very fat.
"Yes, I would like 10 Chocolate Frogs please", Albus replied.
"That would be 3 galleons please".
She picked out 10 chocolate frogs and gave them to Albus. Albus picked out 3 Galleons from his pocket and handed them to the women.
"Here you go, anything else?"
"No thank you".
As she said that she turned away and strolled to the next compartment. Everybody sat quiet now, there was complete silence in the compartment.
"Would any of you like some chocolate frogs?" Albus asked.
Rose just shaked her head, and Frank said "Just 2 please".
After they were finished eating, the blonde haired boy woke up. He took out a magazine from his bag and started reading it right away.
"May I ask your name?" Albus asked.
The boy lowered the magazine and glared at Albus and then said "Lorcan…Lorcan Lovegood"
"Oh, cool. My name is Albus Severus Potter So what's the name of that magazine you have?" Albus asked.
"Potter, wow. Oh, this magazine? It's the Quibby", Lorcan replied.
"Anything interesting inside?"
"Nothing special, just something about ancient runes".
"Oh, so, we were just discussing about what houses we want to be sorted in, what do you say?"
"Ravenclaw I guess, because my mum was in that house".
After that, the compartment went silent once again. After a few hours the train came to a stop.
"What happened?" Frank asked.
"Hogwarts is here", Rose said in a low voice.
Everybody just stared out of the window now; they could see a huge castle at a far distance. Everybody quickly put on their robes and one by one they went in the corridor. As they stepped out of the train, A large voice called "Firs' years over here! Firs' years!" and as the 4 heard that voice they all went towards he large man that was calling them. He was very fat, about 10 feet long and a large beard. There were about 20-30 boats waiting behind him.
"First of all, le' me introduce myself to ye all. My name is Hagrid, I may be old but I still have the Youth in me. So, today ye all be traveling by boats to Hogwarts". Hagrid said. "Get into groups of 3 or 4s and get on one of the boats."
As he said that, everybody started boarding one of the boats. The 4 of us went into a boat near Hagrid. They boarded it and it started moving itself towards Hogwarts. After a few minutes, all the new wizards and witches were staring at the Big Castle which was called Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
