The Unbroken Bond(A Harry potter Fanfiction)

CHAPTER 4

PLATFORM 9 3/4 AND HOGWARTS EXPRESS

Aurora's POV:

Diagon alley is a beautiful place . It is filled many people dressed similar to miss Mcgonagall. All the shops there were weird in a good way. We brought all the things that are mentioned in the list except a pet and a wand . I decided not to get a pet because pets need physical affection which I don't fancy giving . When we went to buy books at Fluriosh and blotts there was a poster of a man with wavy blonde hair showing his white teeth for the camera. But what shocked me to core was the picture of the man was moving!!!!  'How the hell are they even moving?!! I was still in shock when we finally reached the place to buy my wand 'The Olivanders'.
" Miss Mcgonagall, I was wondering, are all the wands same?" I asked her since I am really curious if all wands look and feel the same.
"No miss Whittle. Every wand is made of different wood and core. It is believed that , a wizard or a witch cannot choose their wand instead a wa-" Before she could finish a man emerged from inside the shop to the counter and said ,
" A wand chooses it's owner, indeed." The man finished her sentence looking straight at me and then turned to miss Mcgonagall and greeted her.
"And who might this young lady be?"
" Oh! I'm Aurora Whittle sir. Pleasure to meet you. I'm sorry if I sound rude sir , but how does a wand  choose it's owner?"
"Not to worry Ms.Whittle . Young people like yourself are meant to be curious rather than blindly believing what others say. When a wand chooses it's owner it is always not clear why it chooses that particular person. It is believed that it senses the character and personality and chooses it's owner."
" wow ...that's really interesting." I replied with my mouth open and blinking at Mr. Olivander. He laughed at me and went inside again, to bring a wand, I think. Few minutes later he came back with two boxes to the counter and opened the first wand.
"Cedar wood , dragon heartstring, 10 3/4 inches..here give it a wave."
He described the wand and 'Hold on- did he- did he say dragon heartstring?? Are dragons real?? *Sigh* I don't even know why I'm surprised now . I've seen really weird things just in two days . I wonder what more I'll be able to see in Hogwarts.'
I took the wand from his hand and waved it like he said and all the things on his counter fell down with a loud this. I quickly returned the wand to him but he didn't  seem fazed even a little bit. 'Recokn this happens loads of times then.'
"Don't you worry young lady. Happens all the time. Now let's see this. Dogwood , unicorn hair 11 1/2 inches ....try it."
This time when I took the wand i immediately felt a really warm feeling inside my body. It felt as if this wand belonged to me , as if it was meant for me but no one.
"Aha! Found your match Ms.Whittle. Quite a combination your wand is. I'm sure you'll be the right owner for this wand. Let me tell you, this wand is extremely loyal to it's owner."
"That's nice to hear. Thank you Mr.Olivander. "
Ms. Mcgonagall, who was sitting in one of the chairs paid him the money ' 7 Galleons. Weird , our money is much more easier to understand .'
Earlier that day when I asked her how I was going to pay for all the school stuff she told me that professor Dumbledor, Headmaster of Hogwarts pays for all the stuff of the muggle- born if they are orphans . She also explained the wizarding money.
After paying for the wand we started going back to the orphanage.
"Ms. Whittle i will again come on September the first at 10 'o clock to drop you off at the kings cross station so you can travel to Hogwarts on the train. The train leaves at exactly at 11'o clock"
"What?! There's a train to Hogwarts?"
"Yes there is. But it is well hidden from the muggles."
'Oh my god! All this time thers a train to Hogwarts and not one muggle discovered it. It must really well hidden.'
When we reached the orphanage I bid her a goodbye and went inside my room .

TIME SKIP to September 1st :

Third person POV:

September the first arrived earlier than Aurora expected. She woke up when the alarm clock rang just once. Excitement was the only thing that filled her body. It's been almost a month since the strange lady now Miss Mcgonagall told her she was a witch. She still couldn't believe a lot of things about the wizarding world.
She's been extremely happy since that day, to enter into a new world which she didn't know much about. Everyone in the orphanage noticed her happiness and excitement and were happy for her , that finally her life is going to be happy. They knew that wherever this boarding school was , it was going to be a good place for her if she's already so excited about it.
Aurora already packed all her stuff in the trunk yesterday evening. She quickly did her morning routine and went down to have her breakfast. It was only 9:20 so she had a lot of time till Ms. Mcgonagall arrives. She peacefully finished her breakfast and went to bid the people of the orphanage goodbye since she won't be able to see them untill the next year. When she was talking to Mrs. Willson , Ms. Mcgonagall arrived to the orphanage.
"Are you all packed Ms. Whittle?"
Enquired the witch. Aurora nodded her head excitedly and Mrs. Willson chuckled at her excitement.
"She has been excited all the month." She told Mcgonagall. "Now , be safe  behave and enjoy the year, okay?" She directed it to Aurora since she knew her knack for mischief.
" Have I ever not behaved Mrs.Willson?"  She saluted her with a wide grin on her face .
"Sureee!" Drawled Mrs. Willson.
Bidding her a last goodbye , Aurora and Mcgonagall set of to the kings cross station. When they arrived there Mcgonagall said something which made Aurora look at her as if she was mad.
"Now all we have to do is get on to the platform 9 3/4 ."
"9 3/4 ?" She repeated confused at that. As far as she knew there was nothing as 9 3/4.
"Yes Ms. Whittle. Just follow me ." She told her and started walking towards the barrier between platform 9 and 10.  Then she looked around to make sure no one was watching them. When it was a little deserted , she told Aurora to follow her and started walking briskly straight towards the wall . Aurora's eyes widened abnormally.
' what is she doing?? She is going to crash!!'
But what she didn't expect is that, her disappearing right through the wall . Shocked was an understatement to what Aurora was feeling. She gathered all the courage she could and ran straight to the wall but closed her eyes tightly as she expected to crash at the wall harshly and wake from the dream she was no doubt having . 'What else could explain people passing through walls? Oh right....magic'. She opened her eyes and saw a whole different place. It was still a platform but it was different from the regular one. Unlike the earlier one this platform was packed with people. Parents wishing their children goodbye. Some crying , some laughing, some beaming with pride at their children. It was beautiful . And then she saw a scarlet train , beautiful to be honest , stationed there for all the children to aboard. Written in bold letter at the front.........HOGWARTS EXPRESS.
