Chapter 3

I breathed out a sigh. Finally. Out of the crowd. I sat down in one of the compartments and then opened my present from dad. I was a new phone. Like I'll ever use it at Hogwarts. 

Suddenly a girl average height opened the door and immediately sat down. I stared. "Sorry!" She panted. I could immediately tell that she was an easy target for bullies and she was running away from someone. 

"My name's Bellatrix." She stuck out her hand. "Yeah. Bellatrix LeStrange is my great-great aunt. Mum decided to name me after her. She also hopes I'll be in slytherin." She sighed. "I hope I'm in gryffindor." 

I shook her hand.

I smiled. I had just bought almost a ton of candy from the trolley woman and ate it all in a millisecond. I shared them with Bella, who was actually a very nice girl. 

She had mouse-brown hair and freckles painted her face. She looked like Ellie as a kid from the movie Up. 

"Are you a muggle-born?" Bella asked.

"No, I'm a half-blood. Dad almost died finding out Mum was a witch."

We both shared a laugh.

"I'm pure-blood." 

"Really? Cool!"

...

I woke up to Bellatrix shaking me awake. "We're almost there, time to dress."

I put on my robes and slipped my phone in my pocket. I can use it when I come back home for Christmas and summer break. I walked out of the compartment and someone was calling me and Bella to the boats. Of course it wasn't Hagrid. He died 2025.
