Harry Potter - A Fan Fiction Story

Chapter 5: Towards Hogwarts

Uncle Vernon started the car when Laura and Harry stuffed their luggage in the car. Harry opened the car door. Before getting inside, he glanced at the Dursley's house revisiting the times he spent there and smiled widely at the thought of escaping from it.

Laura saw aunt Petunia going inside the house and closing the door behind her loudly. She saw Dudley who stood watching her with a you-are-not-supposed-to-leave-me look. Laura expressed her sadness and apology without uttering a word. Laura opened her mouth to say goodbye but aunt Petunia opened the door and dragged Dudley inside the house.

They reached the railway station at 9.45AM after spending a lot of time in the traffic.

"Uncle, I didn't do that to Dudley. Not with the intention of doing that." Laura told Vernon.

"You know what! I'm sending you to this school because I want to get rid of you both. I don't want to see your faces. Get your damn faces out of my sight right now." Uncle Vernon reversed his car to leave.

"You're their lovely cute little cousin and niece. Why don't they forgive you for what you did? They won't do that because you are just a living toy for them." Harry told Laura while walking on the platform.

Laura walked silently looking at her owl, Lexi. She was in the cage looking back at her.

"Yes, I maybe a living toy for them. But you... You are a servant for them. A servant without pay." Laura laughed.

"Not so funny, Laura." Harry twisted his mouth.

"Yes, Harry. It isn't funny, but it's true. Hahaha." she laughed again.

"We reached 10th platform. We're walking in this platform for almost 10 minutes. In five minutes, the Hogwart's train will leave." Harry mentioned.

"I couldn't see 9 3/4th platform anywhere." Laura turned her head right and left to see if she can find it.

"Could you please just use your brain? It is a magical world. The platform would have been hidden somewhere, we should find out how to reach it." Harry rolled his eyes.

"At last, Harry, my twiniee started using his tiny pea sized brain. That's so sweet of you." Laura shrugged and teased him.

They saw a red-headed family pushing the luggage similar to theirs. They watched the red-head boys running through the wall in between 9th and 10th platform.

The twins looked at each other and ran towards the wall. They were stopped by the red-headed woman who seemed to be the mother.

"Dear dear. You are Potters, right? I'm Molly Weasley, we Weasleys are family friends with Potters for generations after generations. I hope you two become good friends with Ron." the red-headed woman kept on talking holding a little girl's shoulder who was smiling at them.

"Oh. If you will excuse us, we've a train to catch." Laura pulled Harry along with her while running towards the wall. Harry was looking at the little girl keenly.

They reached the other side of the wall and saw the train departing. They hurried and climbed the train. They searched for an empty compartment. When they opened a compartment, they found two empty seats.

"Don't pretend like you already know the spells." a girl with blonde bushy hair with rabbit teeth, pulled the wand from inside her robes.

"Wait. Wait. You girl, don't do anything stupid and blast the train." Laura stopped her.

"Mind your own business. You idiot-" but the girl stopped when she saw the scar in Laura's hand.

"Wait. Are you - !?" The girl started to ask.
