CHAPTER THREE

━  HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF WITCH CRAFT AND WIZARDRY, Read the first line of the letter, HEADMASTER: Albus Dumbledore ( Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorcerer., Chief. Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, International Confederation of Wizards ) Dear Mr Potter...

A displeased look crossed Kai's face. He did not want to use that name at Hogwarts, it drew too much attention, made people stare at him more then usual. He hated being famous for having dead parents. As ridiculous as it sounded, he wanted to be like every other forgotten orphan.

He strung his navy blue duffle bag over his shoulder, and watched the second family come through the invisible barrier. He'd purposely crossed over early so he could be there when the train arrived. Finding the barrier had been a lot more difficult then he had anticipated, thankfully Minx had been with him to drop him off, as she had his mother before him, and already knew the way. It was a good thing he had come early with how much she fussed. 

Archies cage was in his other hand. He'd replaced the tape holding it together and scrubbed off the rust and dirt the night before in the bathtub, he then fashioned a make shift lock Archie could open himself from spare parts he'd found at work. He washed down cars for the garage down the road from his flat, getting five pounds per car, seven if he did the inside as well. Sometimes he'd change tires there too, but he never got paid for that.

He'd been re-reading the letter to pass the time, before settling on people watching. The fifth family came crashing through. One, two three- no four, five- Jesus Christ that was a lot of gingers. 

Finally the train came into view and Kai was amongst the first to board, he walked into the first carrige he saw, right next to the entry way of the train itself, meaning he would be the first to get off as well. He put away his duffle bag and sat Archies cage down next to him. Kai chose the seat by the window on the left side, so that he would be able to watch the station disappear as they went. After fifteen minutes of pure chaos, the train was fully boarded. The compartment door slid open and one of the red-heads he saw earlier poked his head in, "Anyone sitting here? Everywhere else is full."

Kai shook his head, and the boy took the seat across from him. The red head stared at the eye patch on his face and Kai in turn focused on the black strap of a binder peaking out underneath the boys shirt before looking away. After a few seconds two more red-heads opened the door without knocking.

"Alright Ronniekins?" Asked the first. "Go away," Replied 'Ronniekins'. The two cracked identical grins, "Not even in your dreams, mate. Listen, we're going down the middle of the train to see Lee Jordan's tarantula - Angelina reckons its giant."

"Right,"

The identical twins twisted their heads to look at Kai. It was a little unnerving to be honest. The three observed eachother before the other twin spoke up, "Wicked eyepatch,"

"Cheers," Kai replied. His mind was working over time, trying to pick up any concievable difference between them. Finally, he noticed a freckle in the crease of the latters eye. He pointed at him, "Which are you?"

"Im George, this here is Fred-" "Hello," "And that-" George turned back around to point and his younger brother, "Is Ron. He's scared of you."

Kai looked at the now red Ron and raised his eyebrow, "You are?"

Ron looked like he wanted to rip off his own head, "Shut up! Just go away!"

Fred  and George saluted him in usion, before giving Kai a mocking bow farewell. After they closed the door, there was an awkward silence for a few moments with Ron attempting to hide in his jumper. "Was it the snake or the patch?"
