"But there is no platform none and three quarters!?" AJ yelled. She looked up from the train ticket to see that Hagrid was gone. "But...he was...and then he..."

"I have no idea." They headed off. "So where is this place?" Harry asked.

"I'm guessing somewhere between platform nine and platform ten." AJ remarked sarcastically. "Ha ha." Harry stated dully. They arrived at platforms nine and ten to find no platform nine and three quarters. "Excuse me?" Harry asked the man by platform ten. "Do you know where platform nine and three quarters is?"

"Think I'm stupid do you? There is no platform nine and three quarters!" The man barked. "Sorry." Harry sighed.

A conversation caught AJ's ear. She listened carefully. "... packed with muggles!" She gasped. "Harry!" She said. "Those people were talking about muggles! They should know where the platform is!" The two dashed over and followed them.

"Alright Fred, you first!" The older woman said jesturing to one of the two twins.

"He's not Fred, I am!" The other twin said.

"Honestly woman, you call yourself our mother." The first twin said jokingly.

"Sorry George." The mother apologized. He stepped up to the column they were standing near.

"Just kidding mum, I am Fred!" Laughed before towards the column and...going through it! Harry and AJ looked at each other in shock. They ran over just as the last of the boys went trough.

"Um excuse me-" Harry started but was interrupted by AJ.

"Is that how you get to platform nine and three quarters?" The mother laughed.

"Why yes it is!" She said. "You head strait to that wall there and go right through. It helps to give it a little run if your nervous."

AJ, being her usual self, opted to go first. She went right through but ran into something else. Actually, someone!

"Oi, watch it!" The boy yelled. AJ looked up to see the red headed boy who claimed to be Fred.

"Sorry!" She apologized. "Are you alright?" Slowly he got up, rubbing his shoulder.

"Yeah I'm fine." He said. "Guess I shouldn't have stood in front of the barrier huh?" He laughed. The two locked eyes for a moment, turning away with red faces. Harry came trough the barrier stopping just before into the two.

"Geez sis, your being more of a klutz than normal!" He laughed. He laughed. He held out his hand to the twins. "Hi. I'm Harry, Harry Potter! And this is my sister Audrey Potter!" She shot him a dirty look. "She prefers to be called AJ though."

"Hmm, AJ huh?" Fred asked.

"But you don't have a "j" in your name!" George finished. AJ laughed.

"Audrey Jane Potter." She said.

"Oh"

"I see." Suddenly the train whistle sounded, signaling the trains departure. "We should probably get on the train before we get stranded here." Said George.

"Might be a good idea." Fred agreed. " come on we'll introduce you to our brother Ron!"


"Hey Ron! Got a minuet?" Fred asked while he and George stuck their heads in.

"When was the last time you asked me that?" Ron asked.

"Good point." George said "this is AJ and Harry Potter!" He said gesturing to the other two twins.

"Nice to meat you, I'm Ron!" He held out his had for the two to shake. "Nice to meat you two!" AJ said.

"Hey, have you guys ever played Exploding Snap?" Fred asked. "No what's that?" The two got enormous grins on their faces. "Come on!" George yelled as they raced to their compartment.


"Hey, you guys should probably put on your robes were almost to Hogwarts!" Percy told the two sets of Exploding Snap plays twins. They all glared at him for interrupting their game. "What?" He asked. Suddenly one of the cards AJ was holding exploded, causing her to scream.

They all burst out laughing. "It's not funny!" She yelled, bouncing a card of the side of Harry's head.

They all threw their robes on and finished their game just as the train stopped. "So what's Hogwarts like?" AJ asked. "Oh it's only the coolest place EVER!" George said. "Yeah, they have a bunch of secret passageways!" Fred said. "We even know where the kitchen is!" The foursome stepped off the train.

"That is so cool!" AJ then noticed a familiar face in the crowd. "Look it's Rose!" She then ran over to see her.

"Hey we gotta head to the great hall." Fred stated. "We'll see you there for the sorting though!" Finished George. "Alright, we'll see you there!" The Weasley twins went off to join their year group as Harry went after his sister.

"Hi Rose." AJ cheered. "Oh, hi AJ! Where's Harry?" She asked. She had been talking to a girl with light pink hair and a boy she didn't know. "He was talking to the Weasley twins a moment ago." She turned around to see that the one girls hair was now a soft shade of blue. "Woah! Did your hair just change color?" She asked.

"Yes it did!" The girl said. "Oh, this is my friend Julia, she's a Metamorphagus!" AJ's cheeks turned pink. "Um, I don't know what that is."

"A Metamorphagus is a witch or wizard who can change their appearance." Julia explained. "For example." She took a deep breath and, as she let it out, her hair turned back to the light pink. "That's amazing!" She exclaimed. "Are you a Metamorphagus?" Age asked Rose.

"No, I'm an Animagus like my grandmother." She then saw the blank look on AJ's face. "It means I can change into an animal."

"Oh, cool!" AJ said. "What'd I miss?" Harry asked as he walked up to the group of newly found friends. "I just found out what an Animagus and a Metamorphagus are!" AJ said cheerfully. "Um...what?" They all burst out laughing.

"First years! First years this way!" Came Hagrid loud voice. "Come on, we can talk more on the boats!" Julia said motioning for them to follow.

"Boats?" The Potter twins asked. "Yeah." Julia explained. "We have to cross a lake to get to Hogwarts!"

"Come on! If we hurry we can all share a boat!" The three girls and Harry got into a boat. "You know Harry," AJ explained. "You could have rode on another boat." Harry smiled and put his arm over her shoulders in a half hug. "I'd rather hang with my sister."

"So what happened when you were testing out wands?" Rose asked. Harry and AJ looked at each other with big grins on their faces.

"Well." Harry started. "The first wand I tried I accidentally blew up a vace and then I knocked a bunch of wand boxes off a shelf."

"Then when I was trying out wands it was a little more...destructive." AJ laughed. "First I just knocked a few things off a table. Then I launched a chair through the window. After that I accidentally lit Harry's sleeve on fire. And then I found my wand!"

"Can we see them?" Julia asked. The two pulled their wands out of their pockets of their robes. "Mine is made of Holly, Phoenix Feather and is eleven inches!" Harry described. "Mines made of Dogwood, Veela Hair and is eleven and a half inches." AJ described.

"Mine is Rosewood, Veela Hair and is nine and three fourths inches." Rose said. "Mine is Willow, Dragon Heart string and is ten inches." Harry and AJ had awestruck looks in their faces. "What?" Julia asked. They were looking at something over their heads. Rose and Julia turned around to see an enormous castle on an equally big rock.

In unison the for on the boat said. "Wicked"
