Harry: *looks at Rachel* Then why aren’t you famous, Rachel?
Rae: *sighs* Professor Dumbledore thought it would be safer if my last name was changed. My father, the person who found me, was best friends with your parents and he disappeared. So with no family left, they took me in and gave me a new life away from that event. *scared* Harry, you mustn’t tell anyone of this.
~ Harry nods his head understanding the severity of the situation as they finish their supper. ~
Currently on The Sacred Wolf
~ London Train Station ~
~ The three of them walk through the station with Harry pushing a cart and an owl. A couple looks at Hagrid, not used to seeing anyone like him. ~
Hagrid: What’re you looking at? *looks at watch* Blimey, is that the time?? Sorry, Harry, I’m gonna have to leave you and Rachel. Dumbledore’ll be wanting his--well, he’ll be wanting to see me. Now, uh, your train leaves in 10 minutes. Here’s your ticket. Stick to it, Harry, that’s very important. Stick to your ticket. *looks at Rachel* And you missy stick to him.
Rae: *giggles* Yes, Papa Hagrid.
Harry: *looks at his golden ticket* Platform 9¾? But Hagrid, there must be a mistake. This says Platform 9¾. There’s no such thing--is there? *looks up to see Hagrid vanished*
Rae: *laughs* For a giant, he moves fast. Let’s go, Harry before you miss the train.
~ Rachel begins walking off as Harry yells for her to wait up, making her laugh. Eventually, she slowed down and walked beside him. As they both walk down the lane a man rushes by. ~
Man: Sorry.
Rae: *looks at Harry* Just a little farther.
Harry: *looks at her* Are you sure we’re going the right way?
Rae: Well, if you wanna ask someone, you can, but they won’t believe you.
~ Despite listening to her, Harry goes and asks a train master about the ticket, which ends the exact way she told him it would. While waiting for Harry, a woman, daughter, and four boys walked by, pushing carts, and she could swear she knew their voices. ~
?: It’s the same year after year after year. Always packed with Muggles, of course.
Harry: Muggles?
?: Come on. Platform 9¾ this way! All right, Percy, you first.
~ A tall boy with ginger hair comes forwards, running towards a brick wall. Amazingly, he disappears right into it, fascinating Harry. Seeing the family, Rachel immediately realizes it’s the Weasley's, the only people close enough to call family. Temporarily forgetting about Harry, Rachel runs over to them, excited. ~
Rae: *excited* Mrs. Weasley! Momma Weasley!
~ She turns around to see Rachel and instantly grins as Rachel wraps her arms around her hugging her. Mrs. Weasley chuckles as she wraps her arms around Rachel. ~
Mrs. Weasley: *laughs* Oh, Rachel! It is good to see you again. Are you officially attending Hogwarts this year?
Rae: *backs up* Yes, Momma Weasley. They figured it’s time I joined the others. *sees the twins* Freddie! Georgie! *hugs them*
Twins: *hugs her* The troubled trio is back in action!
Mrs. Weasley: *chuckles* Oh, come on, you three. Fred, you next.
George: *fake offended* He’s not Fred, I am!
Fred: *fake offended* Honestly, woman, you call yourself our mother!
Mrs. Weasley: *waves them off* Oh, I’m sorry, George.
Fred: *laughs* I’m only joking. I am Fred. *runs through the wall followed by his twin*
~ Rachel shakes her head at the two goofballs. She hugs Ginny, who squeals happily, hugging her back, and Rachel ruffles Ron’s hair as he waved her off with a smile. In a fit of laughter, Harry rushes over to them. ~
Harry: Excuse me! C-could you tell me how to?
Mrs. Weasley: *questioning* How to get on the platform? Yes, not to worry, dear. It’s Ron’s first time to Hogwarts as well. *a red-haired boy smiles* Now, all you’ve got to do is walk straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10. Best do it at a bit of a run if you’re nervous.
Ginny: *still hugging Rachel* Good Luck.
Mrs. Weasley: *looks to Rachel* Why don’t you show him, Rachel?
Rae: *smiles* Of course, Momma Weasley.
~ Rachel hugs Ginny and kisses the top of her head before letting her go. She takes a quick breath and runs straight through the wall. Rachel comes out on the other side seeing the Hogwarts Express creating a giant smile on her face. Harry soon joins her, and they both get on the train. ~
