Jack Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Journey to Hogwarts

Jack's POV

I was heading back to my compartment after seeing Lee's tarantula it was awesome. When I got back I saw them ordering sweets from the trolley lady. "Do you think Jack would like these?" Ron asked Harry showing him a pack of jelly bean lollies.

"Bertie bott's every flavor beans" Harry read the label.

"No thank you, can I please have some cauldron cakes and chocolate frogs?" I asked the lady.

"Of course dear here you go" she says handing them to me as I paid her. I then sat across from the other two as they ate their sweets. I rested my feet across the seat as I ate a cauldron cake. Harry shared his sweets with Ron as he didn't liked corned beef sandwich his mother made for him.

Harry then picked up a chocolate frog asking "what's this?"

"Chocolate frog" Ron told him as he ate a licorice wand.

"They aren't real frogs are they" Harry says looking apprehensive.

"It's just a spell Harry" I tell him as I picked up one of my own.

"Besides it's the card you want, each one has a card on a famous witch our wizard. I have about five hundred myself, but am missing Agrippa and Ptolemy" Ron tells him. I rolled my eyes, of course I to collected the cards. But I only collect one of each and give doubles to people who are missing them from their own collection.

"I have a spare Agrippa, I'll give it to you later Ron" I say as Harry and I open our frogs. As he looked at his card of Dumbledore I ate my frog and his got away through the open window. Then looked at my own card and saw it was Godric Gryffindor and I smiled.

"Can I have some of you frogs, I want to see if I can find Ptolemy" Ron asks us. Harry and I nodded our head as I took my book our again. As I read I listened to them talk about the beans I didn't what. Ron was telling Harry some of the flavors as Harry tried one for himself. I watched Ron try one and his face made a look of disgust. "See what I mean sprouts" he told us and we both chuckle. Harry apparently got a bad one as well.

But he continued to try them as we passed the country side and I admired the view. Then a knock on the door dragged me from the view. I saw a round faced teary eyed boy opened the door. "Have you seen a toad? I have lost mine" he asks us.

"I'm afraid not, if we do I'll bring it to you" I tell him and he nods his head leaving us. Ron then started to complain about his rat and how his brother gave him a spell to turn him yellow. So that he'd be more interesting except it didn't work and was about to show us. When a girl with bushy brown hair opened our door.

"Have you seen a toad? a boy named Neville has lost one" she asks us.

"We already told him we haven't seen it" Ron tells her.

"Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then" she says when she sees him holding his wand.

"Right; sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow" he says pointing his wand at his rat Scabbers.

"Are you sure that's a real spell?" the girl asks him. "Well it's not very good, is it? Of course I have only tried a few simple ones myself. But they all worked for me" she states taking out her wand pointing it at Harry's broken glasses. "Occulus Repearo" she says and fixed Harry's broken glasses.

He took them off and put them back on saying "thank you."

"Your welcome and you're Harry Potter, I'm Hermine Granger and you two are?" she asks looking at Ron and I.

"Ron Weasley" Ron tells her.

"Jack Potter Harry;s younger twin brother" I state and the other two gasp.

"I knew you to looked alike" Ron exclaimed and I rolled my eyes. Hermione then started talking about how she heard of Harry in the extra books she had brought. She said she remembered reading he had a twin, but that it died.

"We were separated for our own protection" I tell her.

"I understand well I must leave to continue searching for Neville's toad. You three better change into your robes, I suspect we will be arriving soon" she tells us as she left.

"Yeah we should, I'll be back" I tell them grabbing my robes and left the compartment, I went to the bathroom and made sure I was alone locking the door. Before I changed into my robes. I then headed towards my compartment and saw Draco there with two of his buddies.

"You'll soon find out some wizarding families are better then others Potter. You don't want to make friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there" Draco tells Harry holding his hand out.

"I think you should leave Draco" I sneer and they all turned to face me. Draco did a double take looking between Harry and I. "Yes, we're related now leave my compartment before I turn you into a tea cosy" I said pointing my wand at him.

"I don't think we want to leave, besides if Harry hangs at with people like Weasley here. He'll go the same way his parents did" Draco states. Goyle went to grab one of our frogs and Scabbers bit him. While I shot a spell at Draco for insulting my family. When Goyle throw Scabbers off they left the compartment and Hermione.

"So you've met Malfoy before?" Ron asks Harry and I.

"I met him in Diagon Alley" Harry states and they all looked me.

"He was that friend I told you about Harry the not so good one" I say as I sat down. "Is there something you needed Hermione?" I ask her changing the  subject.

"I have just spoken to the conductor he said we would be arriving soon. So you two had best change into your robes" she tells Harry and Ron. She left and I returned to my book so I wouldn't see the others changing. It made me uncomfortable which is why I changed in the bathroom instead of the compartment.

They had just finished changing when the conductor voice spoke through  the com system. He told us we would be reaching the station in five minutes and to leave our luggage behind. We got there shortly after and got off the train. "Firs' years! Firs' years over here!" a voice called.

We went over to it to see a large man who smiled at Harry. "All right there Harry?" he asks him and he nodded his head. "C'mon follow me, anymore firs' years?" he asks looking around. "Mind yer step, firs' years follow me" he says heading towards the lake. There were boats and I got into one with the other two along with Neville beside Hagrid's boat.

The boats started to move on their own after Hagrid said "forward." We coming up to a bend and he said we would see Hogwarts when we round the corner. "Oh there is this yer toad?" he asks Neville taking one out of his pocket.

"Trevor!" Neville shouts happily taking it from Hagrid thanking him. We soon reached the castle and he made sure we were all here. Also made sure Neville still had his toad before leading us inside the castle. I was finally at Hogwarts.
