crashing down // Fred Weasley

Why so Sirius?

"You want me." Sophie said pointing at herself. "To run through that wall." She said pointing at the wall in between platform 9 and 10.

King cross station was just amazing, huge trains stood in the centre while people were scattered around. Kid's running freely, family's making their way onto their desired trains. Sophie and Harry were joined with the Weasley's and Hermione at the station. Sophie was quite against the idea of running straight into a brick wall but everyone else insisted on it.

"Yes." They all said together.

Sophie let out quite the nervous laugh before looking between the wall and everyone else. "Er one of you go first." She said.

And as if on cue Fred and George ran straight at the wall only they didn't slow down they carried on running even when they were moments away from hitting it's surface. But they didn't. They ran straight through.

"Now let's go." Ron said running through, followed by Ginny who was followed by Hermione and eventually Harry.

"You'll be okay dear but if you wanna get through you might wanna go now." Molly said placing a comforting hand on the girls shoulder.

Sophie just nodded before lining herself and her trolley up to the wall. Before she knew it her legs had already started running and she was getting closer and closer to the wall. Squinting her eyes bracing herself for the impact she let out a small sigh. But she never met the wall, she never hit it's surface. She was only stopped by two hands on her shoulders.

She opened her eyes to reveal the most magnificent train ever. It glowed red and black. Steam blowing everywhere, people would normally be annoyed by this but Sophie wasn't, she thought it gave off more of the 'magical' effect. The train had huge golden and white writing that read.

'Hogwarts express'

'5972'

"Anything from the trolley dearies?" A small plump women asked pushing a large trolley full of sweets down the trains isle, stopping outside theirs.

Sophie had found a carriage on the train and was joined by Hermione, Ron and Harry. While the the two boys were talking to the lady at the trolley Sophie was just admiring the view outside while Hermione was reading the Daily Prophet. Only was she drawn back into the carriage when Hermione spoke.

"You know Sirius will want to hear about this." She whispered. "About what happened at the world cup and the dream."

"Sirius?" Sophie questioned. She's never heard that name before.

"You didn't tell her." Hermione snapped.

"I-it just kind of slipped my mind." Harry defended himself.

"Tell me what?"

And so he told her. He told her everything. That Sirius Black was their Godfather and that he was known for being a mass murderer but he wasn't, he was framed. He told her that he was friends with their parents and he was an Animagus. But that's when it hit her. She knew her parents died but Marge always told her it was a car crash, what if she lied? Harry had told her that their parents were from the wizarding world but what if they died because of that? Did she really wanna know.

They all sat in silence for an hour or so, Harry wrote a letter to Sirius. He told him about Sophie and if he knew about her if so why didn't he tell her. He also told him what happened to her at the world cup.
