Steel Heart | Harry Potter

Chapter 6: Hogwarts Express

[King's Cross Station. Up on a crossing bridge, Harry, with his cart of his baggage, equipment and Hedwig, walk beside Hagrid, people looking at Hagrid suspiciously.]

"What're you looking at? Hagrid mumbled.

"Blimey, is that the time? Sorry, Harry, I'm gonna have to leave you. Dumbledore'll be wanting his- well, he'll be wanting to see me. Now, uh, your train leaves in 10 minutes. Here's your ticket–Stick to it, Harry that's very important. Stick to your ticket."

[Harry looks at his ticket, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.]

"Platform 93/4? But, Hagrid, there must be a mistake. This says Platform 93/4. There's no such thing...is there?"

[Harry looks up, only to see that Hagrid has vanished leaving Harry all alone with his cart.]

"You left him all alone?" Molly yelled looking at the huge man who looked down at his lap. McGonagall sighed, her face gathering more wrinkles than normal.

[Harry then notices a woman, daughter, and four boys walk by, pushing carts.]

"It's the same year after year. Always packed with Muggles, of course."

"Oh, it's us."

"Muggles?"

"Come on. Platform 93/4 this way! All right, Percy, you first." The woman stated.

[A tall boy with red hair, called Percy, comes forward and runs towards a brick wall. Amazingly, he disappears right into it. Harry looks around amazed.]

"Fred, you next."

"He's not Fred, I am!" An identical boy retaliates.

"Honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother." The other responses in faux disappointment.

"Oh, I'm sorry, George."

"I'm only joking. I am Fred."

The hall snorts at the twins little joke they had been doing throughout the school years.

[Harry looks amazed quickly pulling his cart towards the older red-haired woman.]

"Excuse me! C-could you tell me how to–"

"How to get on the platform? Yes, not to worry, dear. It's Ron's first time to Hogwarts as well."

[The camera pans to a red-haired boy, called Ron, who smiles comfortingly.]

"Aww look at Ickle Ronniekins." Ron glares at his brothers while their friends laugh. Julia snorts making Harry smile.

"Now, all you've got to do is walk straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. Best do it at a bit of a run if you're nervous." The same woman tasks.

"Good luck." A smaller Ginny wish's the boy, her body on the cart.

Ginny shrinks in her seat hating the fact that the cute boy had seen her younger self, the girl cringed as the boy smiled at the scene.

[Harry takes a breath and runs at the wall. He shuts his eyes and emerges on the other side a magnificent station at Platform 93/4 with a red train, which is the Hogwarts Express, and bundles of people. A whistle blows, making Harry sigh in relief.]

Jordan and Jonathan, both who hadn't been there with their parents to drop off Julia, look at the screen amazed. The boy had literally gone through a brick wall.

[Later on, the Hogwarts Express is travelling through the countryside. Harry is in sitting alone in a train compartment, and Ron appears in the doorway.]
