CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: THE TIME WE DIED FROM A WHOMPING WILLOW
THE TWINS HAD SPEND THE REST of their summer with the Weasleys, it was a blast of course, the twins, the Weasleys, and Harry had play a game of quidditch, the twins's team won without a doubt but it soon reached September first, it was time to return back to Hogwarts which Harry and the twins were excited to return once again for their second year.
They arrived at King's Cross and quickly—well tried to get their to the platform, because they were running late which wasn't a good thing at all.
"10:58, come on, come on!" Molly shouted, while passing muggles throughout the way.
"Train will be leaving any moment, Fred, George, Louis, Percy, you first!" The four oldest siblings obeyed and ran through the brick wall between platforms nine and ten following closely by their father, Arthur. "I'll take Ginny and your four come right after us". Molly told the twins, harry, and Ron before she and Arthur went behind Ginny and her trolleys and ran into the brick wall like the others did before.
"Let's all go together", Atlas said, before he faced his trolley to the barrier, he placed his hands on the handles of his trolley and began running towards the brick wall while the others were quick to follow behind him, quickly gaining speed as they quickly ran but something the friend group didn't expect and that was crashing into a hard, brick wall instead of going through it.
With a very loud thud, all four of the friends and their trolleys hit the wall hard, as they were knocked down to the ground, the muggles were quick to notice them and plus it was a very loud noise, the four friends stood up, rubbing their heads slightly while picking up their stuffs and placing back on the trolley. Soon an angry station guard came towards them.
"Oi! What do you four think you're doing?" The muggle guard asked angrily. The group was lost of words due to the fact that they couldn't get the barrier to get to Hogwarts.
"Sorry sir, we lost control of our trolleys" Lily quickly said, which was obvious lie but the guard shook his head in disbelief, not wanting to argue with the group as he walked away and went back to his original spot.
"Why can't we get through?" Harry asked in a low tone, while rubbing his arm to least try to get rid of the pain he was feeling. Atlas and Ron shrugged, not knowing why.
"I don't know, the gateway sealed itself for some reason!" Ron exclaimed as he placed his hand on the wall, showing his hand which is not going through. At that exact moment, everything began to get worse when they heard the clock ring, telling everyone that it was 11 o'clock now.
"Great, the train leaves at exactly 11:00! We've missed it!" Atlas said in frustration, as he growled angrily.
"Harry... Lily... Atlas... if we can't get through, maybe my mum and dad can't get back" Ron said in horror, the red haired boy was now terrified.
