Draco, Harry, and Jade got on the train together but split up to look for seats. Strangely it seemed everything was full up.

Harry comes in from one side and see's draco. "That side is all full up." He looks around. "Any luck over here?"

Draco shakes his head. "Some second years here."

"Maybe there is an open seat in the second year's compartment then?" Harry suggests

Draco nods.

The two walk down to the second years cart and see jade standing in the hall looking worried.

"We are supposed to have sat already." Draco says. Why are you standing here?"

"It's all full." She says exhausted. "Except for this one, but there is a hobo sleeping all across the one side and I didnt want to be alone."

"Hobo?" Draco says looking into the room. "I was under the impression Hogwarts had a little more class."

The train lurches forward. "We need to sit." Draco says. "Harry and me will sit on the ends you sit in the middle ok?"

She nods.

They file into the cart and put their suitcases up on the banisters.

They sit quietly all of them with wands in hand in case the hobo attacks them.

"He smells like alcohol." Jade says scrunching up her nose.

"Maybe he drank some before getting on the train?" Harry suggests.

"I had read somewhere that adults say alcohol helps them sleep." Draco says. "Maybe he needed to sleep?"

It begins to rain.

"A storm?" Harry says. "I hope we will be alright."

"The train is protected." Draco says. "With magic."

Right after he says this the train lurches to a stop. They almost spill onto the floor but luckily they manage to stay in their seat.

Harry looks at draco. "You were saying?"

"Please remain calm and in your seats. We are stopping for a routine check of the train. I repeat this is a routine check no need to be alarmed."

Draco raises an eyebrow. "Routine?"

"They didn't do this last year?" Jade says.

"Must be looking for black." Draco says.

The window begins to cover in ice. "Look at that?" Harry says pointing at the ice.

Draco stands up. "What is going on?" His breath floats in the harry and he shivers. "It's freezing."

"You need to sit down." Jade says standing up to try to get him to sit back down.

"I am going to see what's going on." He pauses at the door when a dark figure arrives. He sees a bony hand silhouette raise toward the door.

The door slides open slowly as the children meet the blank face of the horrifying creature.

Draco steps back, stepping on jade's foot. The two tumble backwards.

"Malfoy?! What is it?!" She gasps.

The thing floats into their cabin but they are too terrified to scream. It turns to harry.

Harry hears a woman scream and passes out in his seat.

"Harry!" Jade says scrambling under Malfoy to try to get off the floor.

Just then the man hobo who was asleep in his seat gets up and a bright flash of light erupts from his wand driving the creature away.
