Scene: The train is traveling through unknown country.Inside a compartment, where Harry and (Y/N) are sitting. The red headed boy, RON, appears, dirt on his nose.


Ron: Excuse me, do you mind? Everywhere else is full.

(Y/N): No, not at all.

Ron: {sits across from (Y/N) and Harry} I'm Ron, by the way. Ron Weasley.

Harry: I'm Harry. Harry Potter.

(Y/N): And I'm (Y/N) Potter

{Ron goes agape.}

Ron: So-so it's true?! I mean, do you really have the...the...

(Y/N): The what?

Ron: {whispers} Scar...?

(Y/N): Yeah {lifts up hair from face}

Harry: Oh, yeah. {lifts up hair}

Ron: Wicked.

A trolley comes by the compartment, full of sweets.

Woman: Anything off the trolley, dears?

Ron: {Holds up mushed sandwiches} No, thanks, I'm all set. {smacks lips.}

Harry and (Y/N) look at each other and nod

Harry: {pulls out coins} We'll take the lot!

Ron: Whoa!


Scene: Eating bundles of sweets.

Ron's rat, Scabbers, is perched on Ron's knee, a box over its head.

Harry: Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans?

Ron: They mean every flavour! There's chocolate and peppermint, and there's also spinach, liver and tripe. George sweared he got a bogey-flavoured one once!

(Y/N): Oh, I think I'll pass

Harry quickly takes the bean he was chewing out of his mouth.


Harry: {picks up blue and gold package} These aren't real chocolate frogs, are they?

Ron: It's only a spell. Besides, it's the cards you want. Each pack's got a famous witch or wizard. I got about 500 meself.

Frog: Ribbit. {The frog jumps over (Y/N) onto the window and climbs up, then leaps out the window...disappearing.}

(Y/N): Oh my

Ron: Oh, that's rotten luck. They've only got one good jump in them to begin with.

Harry: Hey, I got Dumbledore!

Ron: I got about 6 of him.

(Y/N): Hey, he's gone!

Ron: Well, you can't expect him to hang around all day, can you? {Scabbers squeaks} This is Scabbers, by the way, pitiful, isn't he?

Harry: Just a little bit.

Ron: Fred gave me a spell as to turn him yellow. Want to see?

Harry: Yeah!

Ron: {clears throat} Ahem. Sun-

A girl, HERMIONE GRANGER, with bushy brown hair appears at the doorway.


Hermione: Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville's lost one.

Ron: No.

Hermione: Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then.

Ron: Aghhhemm. Sunshine, daises, butter mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!

{Zap. Nothing happens. Ron shrugs.}

Hermione: Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good, is it? Of course I've only tried a few simple spells myself, and they've all worked for me. For example...{Hermione goes over and sits across from (Y/N). She points her hand at her glasses and (Y/N) tenses} Oculus Reparo. {The glasses, which noseband is battered, are repaired. (Y/N) takes them off, amazed.} That's better, isn't it? Holy Cricket, you're (Y/N) Potter {looks over at Harry} and your Harry Potter. I'm Hermione Granger...and you are...?

Ron: {full mouth} I'm...Ron Weasley.

Hermione: Pleasure. You three better change into your robes. I expect we'll be arriving soon. {Gets up and leaves, then comes back and looks at Ron.} You've got dirt, on your nose, by the way, did you know? Just there. {Points} {Ron scratches his nose, embarrassed.}


Scene: Darkness, the train blows its whistle and pulls into an outdoor station. Hagrid walks along the side aisle, with a lantern. People begin pouring out of the train.

Hagrid: Right, then! First years! This way, please! Come on, now, don't be shy! Come on now, hurry up!
