The Knight Bus

A/N
I am soooo sorry i havent been uploading i feel so bad since i have been getting so many reads. Thnx again all of you awesome 68 people. Now let me exp.lain myself:
It was exam week. Revision. Exams. TORTURE. Im so sorry! please forgive me:3

I heard footsteps coming down the stairs while Reg and I were sitting at the table talking about my years in Hogwarts which were just hours from beginning. Eventually my dads tired face appeared by the foot of the stairs, " You two are awake? Well can't blame you since its 3 hours until the express leaves." He said with a yawn, his expression suddenly turned grim." But Sirius, be cautious of the-" I already knew what he was going to say as I scoffed " Mudbloods" he finished.
"Really dad! They're still magical just muggle-borns whats so bad about them?" I retorted angrily.
"SIRIUS, we are PURE-BLOODS with the utmost class they have been brought up with muggles and are not acquainted with our customs" He said classily. I simply rolled my eyes before finishing off my cereal.
"Well I need to get my trunk down, when are we leaving?" I asked eagerly.
"Around 10:30, The Knight Bus is known for being sickeningly fast." He replied.
"Awesome! I've always wanted to ride The Knight Bus." And with that I was rushing upstairs to get my trunk down to the porch.

Time passed but not quick enough for me, I was running around annoying Kreacher; our house elf, attempting to speed up time. By the time my mum got up around 9:30 I was still sliding down the banisters, well until she grabbed my collar and yelled at me for the next 10 minutes. Afterwards I decided to just sit and talk with Reg my younger brother.

Finally it was 10:25 I got up and made sure I was completely ready to go. By 10:30 I was standing on the porch, wand at hand, waiting for my dad. After what seemed like an hour he came out, only to be followed by Reg.
"Is he coming too?" I groaned
"Yes and you will not stop him he just wants to see the train" My dad growled. I groaned but wouldn't let my annoying brother ruin this. I spoke to him sometimes but mainly kept to myself because he seemed to have the same idea on muggle-borns as my parents.
When we were on the sidewalk I stood there awkwardly as I had never travelled on The Knight Bus. My dad told me to hold out my wand, I looked at him, confused. I did as I was told and before I had a chance to jump back in fright a triple-decker thin, purple bus was parked in front of me.
"Well what are you waitin for?" said a wizard who looked to be in his late 20's.
"The name's Ernie, Ernie Prang. Now c'mon whatcha waitin for"
And with that we were on the Knight Bus. I had never rode the Knight Bus before so I copied my dad by clinging on to a railing. I soon saw why, the bus seemed to travel at 200 miles p/h. Not 10 minutes had passed and we were parked in front of Kings Cross Station.

"Dat'll be 5 Galleons an' 11 Sickles" Ernie said, My dad paid and lead us to the station with our trunks. We stopped in between platform 9 & 10, Reg seemed confused but my dad told me what I needed to do earlier.
"Grab hold of my arm Regulus" My father said,
"Now GO!" He yelled as quietly as he could, not wanting to attract attention from the muggles.
We headed straight for the wall in-between platforms 9 & 10 and when I looked up I saw a scarlet red steam train with "The Hogwarts Express" engraved in gold.
