As Harry arrived at King's Cross Station with his trunk and Hedwig, he felt a mix of excitement and nervousness. This would be his first time boarding the Hogwarts Express, and he couldn't wait to begin his magical journey. As he made his way through the bustling station, he couldn't help but notice a familiar face in the crowd—Daphne Greengrass, the young witch he had met at Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions.

"Daphne!" Harry called out, waving to catch her attention.

Daphne turned and smiled when she saw Harry. "Harry! It's good to see you again. I'm excited for our journey to Hogwarts together."

"Me too," Harry replied, feeling a sense of ease in her presence. He noticed Daphne's parents standing nearby and greeted them warmly. "Mr. and Mrs. Greengrass, it's a pleasure to see you again."

"Likewise, Harry," Mr. Greengrass replied with a nod. "Daphne has spoken highly of you."

Daphne's mother, Mrs. Greengrass, added, "Yes, she's quite taken with you, Harry."

Harry blushed slightly, but he was genuinely flattered by their kind words. "Thank you. I had a great time talking to Daphne at Madam Malkin's."

As they continued to chat, Harry noticed a new face standing beside Daphne—another young witch with dark hair and bright blue eyes. "Oh, Harry, let me introduce you to my best friend, Tracey Davis," Daphne said with a smile.

"Hi, Harry," Tracey greeted him warmly. "Daphne has told me all about you."

"Nice to meet you, Tracey," Harry replied, offering his hand.

Tracey shook his hand with a friendly smile. "Likewise! Daphne speaks highly of you, you know."

"Does she now?" Harry said, glancing at Daphne, who looked a little embarrassed.

The four of them continued chatting, and soon it was time to board the Hogwarts Express. As they walked towards Platform 9 and 3/4, Daphne and her parents seemed impressed by Harry's knowledge of the hidden entrance.

"Harry, you seem to know your way around the magical world quite well," Mr. Greengrass observed.

"I've been fortunate to learn a lot over the summer," Harry replied modestly.

They reached the barrier, and Harry led the way, pushing the trolley through it with ease. On the other side, the majestic red Hogwarts Express awaited them, billowing steam into the air.

"I still can't believe I'm going to Hogwarts," Daphne said, her eyes shining with excitement.

"You'll love it," Harry assured her. "It's a whole new world of magic and wonder."

As they found an empty compartment on the train, the conversation flowed effortlessly. Daphne and Tracey were eager to hear more about Harry's experiences and the magical world he had discovered over the summer.

Harry spoke about his training in dueling and Occlumency, impressing Daphne and Tracey with his dedication and determination to learn.

"Occlumency? That's quite advanced magic," Daphne remarked. "I've heard it's not easy to master."

"It's been challenging, but my teacher has been strict and thorough," Harry replied. "I'm determined to get better at it."

"And you've been learning dueling too?" Tracey asked, intrigued.

"Yes, I've been practicing quite a bit," Harry said, trying not to sound boastful.

"Well, you must show us some spells later," Daphne said with a playful grin. "I'd love to see what you've learned."

As the train journey continued, they shared stories and laughed,

"My parents told me all about the houses, the classes, the Quidditch matches..."

"Quidditch?" Harry asked, intrigued. "What's that?"

Daphne gasped. "You don't know what Quidditch is? It's the best sport in the world! It's played on broomsticks, with four balls and six hoops. There are seven players on each team: three Chasers, two Beaters, one Keeper and one Seeker. The Chasers try to score goals with the Quaffle, the Beaters try to knock out the other players with the Bludgers, the Keeper tries to stop the Quaffle from going through the hoops, and the Seeker tries to catch the Golden Snitch, which is a tiny winged ball that ends the game and gives 150 points to the team that catches it."

Harry listened with fascination as Daphne explained the rules and strategies of Quidditch. He felt a surge of excitement and wondered if he could try it someday.

Then they heard a knock on the door.

"Hello?" a voice said.

They turned to see a boy with blond hair and gray eyes standing outside their compartment.

He had a sneer on his face and looked at Harry and Daphne with disdain.

"Can I help you?" Daphne asked politely.

The boy snorted. "I doubt it. I'm Draco Malfoy, and I'm here because I heard Harry Potter is on the train.

"That's me" replied Harry

" Ah Harry you see, there are some people you should avoid at Hogwarts, and some people you should befriend. And I can tell you who they are."

He pointed at Daphne.

" I see you befriended a pureblood and not a Mudblood and the Weasel," said Malfoy in disgust

"Who?"

Malfoy smirked "There were two idiots looking for you but they gave up an hour in"

"And you," he said, looking at Daphne. "You're Daphne Greengrass, right? I know your parents. They're decent people, for Slytherins."

He jerked his thumb at Harry.

Daphne felt a surge of indignation. She stood up and faced Malfoy.

"Listen here, Malfoy," she said. "You don't know anything about Harry or me. We're friends, and we don't care what you think. So why don't you just leave us alone and mind your own business?"

Malfoy laughed.

"You're making a mistake, Greengrass, I was about to say that it's a good thing you sat with him first. Anyways I have to get going, you better change soon."

He turned to leave, but then stopped and looked back. I hope to see you in Slytherin, Potter."

Harry soon left the compartment too to let Daphne and Tracey change. "You can come in," said Daphne. As Harry entered the compartment and Daphne left, He quickly stripped off his old clothes and put on his trousers but as he was about to put on his robe; A red-haired boy barged in and said "Is Harry Potter in here?"

"Can't you see I am changing, you absolute idiot" Harry responded his voice laced with malice and anger, "Stop he is trying to chang" The E died in Daphne's throat as she saw Harry with no shirt. Daphne's heart skipped a beat as she saw Harry, he had just changed into his Hogwarts robes, but he hadn't put on his shirt yet. His chest was bare, revealing his toned muscles and smooth skin that would only get better as he got older but right now, Daphne felt a surge of heat in her cheeks as she admired his physique. She quickly looked away, hoping he hadn't noticed her staring.

(Harry's body is due to the potions and the dueling practice)

"Get out… Now!" said Harry. "I just came here to introduce myself to you, she just told me you were busy, "he said pointing at Daphne.

"What was I supposed to do? "You rushed in before even letting me finish" replied Daphne.

"Anyways, I'm Ron Weasley and you wouldn't want to be associated with people like her '' said Ron trying to start a conversation.

"Didn't you hear me? I said get out, '' replied Harry angrily.

Ron was wordless and wandlessly pushed out of the compartment and the door shut in his face, Harry stood angrily but shocked and yes, shirtless. "Harry *gulps* since when can you do that?" asked Daphne shakily. "I… this was the first time" replied Harry still in shock with Magic running rampant through his body, "is that normal?" he asked knowing full well what the answer was. "No Harry, No one other than Dumbledore himself can perform wandless magic after they have gotten their wand!" said Daphne.

"Why? Does getting a wand make you weaker or something?" Harry asked in confusion, "No, when the core connects to you. Your magic recognizes it as a channel to flow through but due to reasons only known to Merlin connecting to your wand greatly diminishes the other natural channels of magic, and if you can do wandless magic, it means that you have enough magic leftover after bonding to a core to flow through the natural channels. Basically, it means your potential is on par with Dumbeldore and Vold…...You-Know-Who." replied Daphne wide eyed

"I suppose that's probably why Voldemort attacked me, '' said Harry . " Though I would appreciate it if you stopped looking at my chest and muscles. it's getting embarrassing." said Harry with a smile.

" Uh … Um yes ,yeah" Daphne looked away blush

"Hey, I'm back what did I miss?" asked Tracey who was in the washroom after eating a toenail flavoured candy

Harry and Daphne just looked at her with amusement, as they told her about Ron and Harry's wandless magic.
