Howling At The Moon

Borading The Hogwarts Express And The Sorting Hat

A week later

I am packed and ready to go to Hogwarts...I'm a little scared to go, I dont know if I will make any friends...Or anything...Then I remembered...

"Mamma!" I said running to her very fast."What? Whats wrong?" " Mamma! I forgot to get an animal!" I wanted a pet Owl but we had to leave in 3 hours."We can go to Diagon Alley, it take that long lets hurry and go." then we went to Diagon Alley and when to the pet shop. I forgot what it was called. I walked in and saw so many magical creatures I was in awe. I looked around and something cought my eye...

I saw an Owl about 1ft high kind of small, but small enough to be on a shoulder, the colors were White, all white with a lot of black stripes all most like a White Tiger, its eyes where like a golden color. It flew onto my right shoulder "Whoa!" I said not expecting it to land on my shoulder. "Hey mamma! I found the pet I want!" She looked over and agreed. I went over to the counter to pay. "She will be...10 sickles please..." "Okay.'' and we payed then left.

We got back to the house an hour and 30minz before we had to go to the King Cross Station. I fished packing my stuff and put it in the car. "What did you name your Owl?" asked Sara petting her. "Oh...Uh...I forgot to name my Owl..." "How can you forget to name something?" she said that like it was a bad thing. "Well...I just forgot...What would a good name be for her be?" I asked her, we started thinkinh about it for a minute or two. "How about Astra? Its Greek and it means from the stars." Sara said, I was a little surprised she knew that but she loves stars what can I say? ''Okay I like that name" I said with a smile "Astra." I think that will be a good name for her.

It was time to go to the train station and I finshed packing. We got in the car and when to the Kings Cross Station, got my stuff out of the car and when inside. "We have to fin platform 9-3/4." Said papa looking at the paper he was holding. "9-3/4? There isnt one here, is there?" I said looking at him wondering if he was sure,about what he was saying. "Yes 9-3/4." Said my mamma this time "Okay..." When we reached platfrom 9 and 10 I was ver confused. " wheres 9-3/4?" i said looking around. "Right here!" Said papa looking at the wall. "Um...Papa? Thats a wall!" I said looing at him very confused. "Yes...Walk right in the middle of it and you will be at platform 9-3/4..." I was still looking at him wide eyes thinking..."He wants me to walk into the wall?! is he crazy?!" But there he went walking in the wall then he was gone! "Papa??" I said looking around "Your turn..." Said mamma looking at me. I closed my eyes then walked through the wall and I saw a light. I opened my eyes and saw a huge black and red train. There was so many witches and wizards! Everywhere!

The train would be leaving in 10 minutes. I put my trunk and other stuff by the storage and took a bag of books,pens,markers,things like that with me. I said goodbye to my mamma, papa, two sisters, and little brother, got on the train and waved goodbye to them.

I found an empty apartment and sat in it for about 3 minutes when I saw people walking by, then I saw a group of 5 people 1 girl and 4 boys talking to each other, one of them I thought i saw him before..."C'mon Izzy! all of them are full and theres only 1 person in here..." said a boy with messed up hair and glasses. "Ugh fine..." Said a girl with long black hair, She opened the door and asked" can we be in here? All of the rest are full..." "Sure!" I said, I was kind of lonely because I didnt know anyone here. "Thanks." They all walked in and sat down, the girl with long black hair sat next to me, the boy with black curly black hair sat next to him, then boy with messed up hair and glasses sat next to him. Across from me sat a boy I knew from somewhere sat infront of me and a kid with blonde hair that creeped me out a little sat next to him.There wasnt eought room so i got up and moved to the empty spot across from where I was sitting."Where are our manners!" said the girl with the black hair, "My name is Izzy Lupin. The guy next to me is Sirius Black, next to him is James Potter, and the blonde guy there is Peter. Oh! And the guy next to you is my brother, his name is-" She wasnt able to finsh because I sad his name before she did "Remus Lupin!" Then there was no noise just awkwardness...I was blushing so bad! Then Izzy said, "How did you know his name?" "We walked into each other in a book store at Diagon Alley..." I started to look at the window. To make it worse she said..."Awww! Rem! You didnt tell me that you walked into somebody!" Then Remus started to blush really bad! We looked like tomatoes, we were so red!
