"Now, all you have to do, is go to platform 9 3/4 and the train will be there. I'm sure you'll find your friends from Diagon Alley there too. Unfortunately, I can't go with you, I have to get back now, you'll be fine on your own won't you?" Dumbledore asked. I nodded and he smiled.

"Oh, I almost forgot, whilst you were talking to your friends, I got you a present."

"Really? You didn't have to."

"Think of it as a good luck present," He smiled, handing me a gold cage, with a white tawny owl with brown spots on it's wings and chest. The owl turned it's head towards me, it's amber eyes gleaming, and cooed affectionately.

"He's lovely, thank you!" I exclaimed, stroking the top of the owl's head.

"I'm glad you like it, let me know what you name her,"

"I will, goodbye Professor!"

"Goodbye, Ashleigh." He said, and left.

The wheels of my trolley squealed as I looked for any of my friends to go on the train, with no luck. There was a group of auburn haired people who I presumed were all family, walking...towards a wall. The mother was busy giving the twin boys a lecture, I looked around some more, but I still couldn't see anyone.

"Hey!" The twins said in unison, gesturing for me to come over, I pushed the trolley over and smiled.

"Hello."

"Are you going to Hogwarts?" One of them asked.

"Fred! You can't just ask random people things like that! She could be a muggle!" his brother exclaimed.

"Oh, shut up Perce! I know she's a witch, she has the same trolley as us."

"That doesn't mean anything!" He retorted, his glasses slipping of the edge of his nose.

"Really? And how many muggles have you seen with a trolley loaded with trunks and magical objects?" Fred answered smugly, crossing his arms.

"I...Well...Umm..." He replied, going red.

"It's okay, I'm a first year. I'm trying to find Platform 9 3/4, Professor Dumbledore told me to go there, but I think he might have been joking, there's no platform 9 3/4 here,"

"He wasn't joking, dear, it's behind that wall, all you have to do is walk through it, best do a bit of a run if your nervous," Their mother smiled.

"Thank you...um...?" I faltered, not knowing what to call her.

"Molly Weasley,"

"Thank you Mrs Weasley,"

"Your welcome, this is Fred and George," She said, pointing to the twins who grinned mischievously.

"Percy," The boy with the glasses looked up from the book he was reading and nodded.

"And Ron and Ginny, Ron will be joining next year," The two youngest Weasleys smiled, hiding behind their mother.

"I have two other sons as well, Bill and Charlie, but they've already left."

"Charlie's in Romania, studying Dragons!" George added, looking very proud.

"And Bill works for Gringotts!"

"Wow!" was all I could say.

"Oh look at the time! Best be going, or you'll miss the train!" Mrs Weasley ushered us towards the wall.

"Percy you first!" Percy grabbed his trolley and ran at the wall, as soon as I thought he was going to hit the wall, he disappeared! My jaw nearly hit the floor as I stared in amazement.

"C'mon, you can go with us," George said, tugging on my jumper. I smiled and we ran at the wall.

"Good bye!" Mrs Weasley, Ron and Ginny shouted.

"Bye!" We replied as we disappeared...through a wall.

A/N: The chapters will probably be written in two parts for the first beginning, then will probably just be one. To many ideas that won't fit together!

Oh and comment any ideas for pranks Fred and George might do on their first year at Hogwarts!
