Platform 9 3/4
"Hurry up! We don't want to be late!" Lena's father yelled as they unpacked the car, they were recieving strange stares from the Muggles all around them. There were four children with big trunks, including two owls.
They put the trunks on the trolley's and started to wheel them towards platform Nine and three-quarters. Lena stared at the clock on the wall between Platforms 5 and 6, it said ten-thirty.
"Dad, its only ten-thirty, the train doesn't leave until eleven!" Lena complained. Their father had made them get up early so they wouldn't miss.
"Oh, I thought the train left at ten-thirty." He replied. Joseph muttered angrily to himself. His father had yelled at him for taking too long.
"Well, here we are." Lena's mother said as they approached the wall in between Platforms 9 and 10. There were a few other families standing around, including one family that looked quite lost.
"Are you lost?" Lena asked as she approached the family. There was a mother, father and two girls who looked to be the same age, though only one of them was pushing a trolley.
"Yes, this ticket says to go to Platform 9 3/4 but there isn't one." The father said, handing Lena a ticket.
"Oh, you must be Muggles, just follow us." Lena said, she noticed that one of the girls looked offended at being called a Muggle.
"Are you just starting at Hogwarts?" The mother asked as they walked back towards Lena's family.
"Yeah, so is my brother Matthew." Lena replied.
"Oh, so you'll be in Aine's year!" Aine's mother said, signalling toward one of her daughters. She had long red hair and a few piercings on her body. Lena bit her lip, this girl didn't look the nicest.
"Hi Aine, I'm Lena," Lena said, extending her hand out. The girl nodded and shook Lena's hand, but she didn't say anything, she just frowned.
"Lena? Where are you?" Lena heard her mother shouting.
"Oh, sorry Mum, I was just helping someone." Lena replied.
Aine stared at Lena, she seemed nice enough. Aine hoped they could be friends at Hogwarts, she knew she needed them, otherwise her time would be terrible.
Aine and her family followed Lena, she watched as each of Lena's family ran towards the wall between Platforms 9 and 10, and just seemed to disappear.
Aine stared in shock, how could they do that? Lena turned to smile at her. "Just do what I do and you'll be fine," she said.
Like her family, Lena ran at the wall and disappeared. "How do they do that?" Anja asked.
Aine smiled. "Magic," she replied.
"Alright Aine, it's your turn," her mother said worriedly.
"Don't worry Mum, I'll be fine, I just have to run at a wall," Aine said, rolling her eyes at her mother, but in truth she was very nervous.
Aine grabbed her trolley and stared at the wall, it would hurt if she ran into it. Aine closed her eyes and began to run towards the wall. Suddenly she found herself in a new platform, heaps of other children dressed in robes like hers, with their parents ran everywhere.
Aine's family appeared behind her. "Wow!" Anja exclaimed.
"So, what do we do now? Is there anyone around here who could help us?" Aine's father asked. Aine looked around, there were a few other families standing around wondering what to do like them. But everyone else seemed to know exactly what to do.
She spotted a family standing near them, the girl looked a lot like her with wild red hair and robes, they were about the same size. There was a women, who was probably their mother and an older boy in robes with yellow on them. Aine had noticed that most of the students had robes with different colours on them- red, yellow, green or blue. She wondered if she'd get a colour on her's.
"Maybe we should ask them," she said, waving her hand at the small family standing beside them.
Azealia watched as the family walked towards her, there were two girls her age who looked very alike, but only one of them was wearing Hogwarts robes.
"Excuse me, but could you tell us where to go? We've never been here before," the man asked.
"Oh, are you Muggles?" Her aunt asked, the man nodded. "Well, at exactly eleven o'clock the train leaves, so you should probably get on it before then," she continued, signalling the the Hogwarts express.
Azealia stared at it, she hadn't noticed it yet, though it was very hard not to. It was very long and dark purple. She was very excited to be going on it, Oliver had been on it before and she had always wanted to know what it was like inside.
"Alright thanks!" The man said before turning and walking away. The girl in the Hogwarts robes waved at Azealia.
"Well they seemed nice, maybe you should get to know that girl, she looks like she's in your year at Hogwarts," her Aunt said.
"Yeah maybe," Azealia replied. In truth she wanted to be that girl's friend, she didn't know anyone but wanted to make friends.
"Well, why don't you go and talk to her, be nice to her and invite her to sit in your carriage. Heaven know's she must be feeling very lost and overwhelmed," her Aunt said.
"Alright, bye Aunt. D bye Oliver I'll see you guys later," Azealia said, wheeling her trolley away to chase after the girl.
As she walked she was stopped by an auburn-haired, cheeky looking boy. "Excuse me, but what's your name?" He asked.
"Um, Azealia Monaghan," she replied.
The boy rolled his eyes at the boy next to him. "Seriously Callum, everyone here has weird names, so far I've spoken to a Rochelle, Nadius, Alatrina or something, Pencilsvania and Rapheal. And now an Azalia!" He said.
Azealia was offended. "My name is Azealia not Azalia, and its not weird! Its just uncommon. What's your name?" She said.
"It's Andrew, see my name seems so normal and common compared to everyone elses," he said, before walking off with the other boy who must have been Callum.
Azealia glared after him, he didn't seem like a very nice boy.
Meanwhile on the other side of the platform, David was talking with his parents. "Alright David, have you got all your things?" His father asked.
David nodded. "Yes Dad, you made me check my trunk this morning, it's all here," he said exasperately.
"I'm sorry, I'm just nervous," he replied. It was the first time he was sending a child away to Hogwarts.
"I'm going to miss you David," his little sister, Cathy, said.
"I'm going to miss you too Cath," David replied.
"How long until the train leaves?" David's mother asked.
"Fifteen minutes," his father replied, checking his watch.
"I should probably board the train soon, I want to get a seat," David said.
David's mother hugged him. "Good luck, remember to send an owl once a week, and tell us if anything happens," she said, staring him in the eye. David nodded.
"Bye Mum," he said.
"And speaking of owls, we got you a present!" Sarah piped in all of a sudden.
"Accio Owlcage," his father said. David could just make out a silver bird-cage flying towards them. Inside was a brown owl.
David gasped. "Thanks! It's brilliannt!" He said, he'd been hoping for an owl since he was a little boy.
"So you can send us owl's every week with no excuses," his father said, winking at him before pulling him into a hug. "I'm going to miss you David," he said.
"I'm going to miss you too," David replied, he began to get a little teary-eyed. He wouldn't be seeing his parents until Christmas.
"Bye David!" Cathy said as she hugged her older brother. It was followed by a farewell from Sarah and they were ready to go.
"Send an owl tomorrow morning and make some friends!" His mother said as he waved goodbye to his parents, suddenly excited.
He followed the crowd of kids trying to get onto the train. A new chapter of his life was about to begin, he would learn magic and make friends and learn all sorts of things, he was definitely excited.
Silvana Ellery rushed down the corridor of the train. Her brothers and sister had disappeared and she was lost.
Eventually she decided to stop looking for them. Her parents had told her siblings to look out for her but obviusly they weren't doing a very good job. They'd been on the train cart for two minutes and they'd already lost her.
Silvie walked down the hallway, looking inside the carts to see if any were free. Most of them seemed to be full, or filled with older students who glared at her when she peered in.
She stared into one car, four students about her age were sitting in it. She recognised them as first-years as they didn't have a coloured symbol yet.
"Excuse me but could I sit here?" She asked, signalling to the free seat next to a girl with blonde hair.
"Sure take it," the girl said.
Silvie smiled gratefully at the girl as she sat down. "So who are you?" She asked the other members of her carriage.
"I'm Diana Lightwood," the girl sitting opposite her said.
"And I'm David Reiss, but just call me Reiss, I think it sounds better," The boy sitting next to Diana said.
"I'm Aedan. Aedan Aheran," The other boy said, grinning at her.
"And I'm Lena Payne," the blonde-haired girl said. "Who are you?" She asked.
"I'm Silvana Ellery but call me Silvie, that's my nickname," she replied
"Ellery, I think my brother has a friend who's last name is Ellery. Do you have an older brother Zach?" Lena asked.
"Yeah I do! Who's your older brother?" Silvie asked.
"Joseph, I think our brother's a pretty good friends." Lena replied.
"Yeah I've heard Zach go on about a boy named Joey before," she said. "And I've heard my other brother Carter mention someone named Zoey Payne before, he has a crush on her!" She continued.
"Really? Zoey's my older sister, it seems we've got all the connections to each other!" Lena replied as the door opened.
"Um, hi i-is this carriage full?" A girl in the doorway asked nervously. She was another first year.
"No, you can come in. What's your name? I'm Silvie!" Silvie said to the girl.
"Oh I'm Piper Short," the girl said, taking her seat and not giving any more information. She seemed vert shy.
Lena raised her eyebrows at Silvie as the train started with a jolt. Silvie smiled happily to herself, they were off to Hogwarts! And it seemed that she'd already made a friend.
They leaned against the window to wave to their parents before they were out of sight. Silvie spotted her mother and father standing in the crowd waving at them.
Chatter started up again between Aedan and Reiss, so Lena and Silvie decided to start talking again as well.
"What house do you think you'll be sorted into?" Lena asked.
Silvie shrugged. "I have no idea, my brothers and sister are all in different house. What about you?" She asked.
"I'm hoping for Ravenclaw, that's where all my siblings are in. And I think my family is expecting Matthew and I to get into it as well," Lena replied.
"Who's Matthew?" Silvie asked.
"He's my very annoying twin brother. You don't want to meet him," she warned.
Silvie laughed happily as the train sped out of the station. She was definitely looking forward to the year ahead.
