Chapter Four - Train

.

The day has finally arrived, today September 1st I'm going to Hogwarts, I'll finally be able to use my wands and learn what I need for when the war starts if it starts. This first year will be a year of observation, maybe I should learn how to be an animagus, and it would be useful at some point.

Anyway, I'll see about that later, now I want to see my family's reaction when we get to the station, although I don't think it will be like Diagon Alley.


Flashback

- "Is it here?" - Said Petunia, looking at the other people passing by without paying attention to the place.

- "Yes, the Leaky Cauldron," - I said as I approached the door.

- "Well, let's go in," - Said Mum.

When we were all inside, I looked around the tavern, several people were talking, drinking, or eating. The tavern itself was dark and ragged, and a man when saw us approach, I recognized him, he is Tom, the current owner of the Leaky Cauldron.

- "You've come to buy your Hogwarts supplies," - He said, looking at us with a smile on his face.

- "That's right," - Answered Dad.

- "Well, follow me," - We followed him to the back where there was a brick wall, he touched five bricks around a hole, and that made the wall open. - "Have fun." - And as he came, he left.

When I looked down the alleyway my mouth dropped open and everything was amazing, 'It's so much better than I imagined it would be,' I looked at my parents and sister and their mouths were open, and their eyes were glittering with what I guess was amazement and excitement.

- "Let's go to Gringotts." - I said after coming to my senses. The others just nodded and started to follow me.

We walked along until we came to a large white building on one side, which was the poem/warning.

Enter, stranger, but take heed Of what awaits the sin of greed, For those who take, but do not earn, Must pay most dearly in their turn, So if you seek beneath our floors A treasure that was never yours, Thief, you have been warned, beware Of finding more than treasure there.

Before entering, I bowed to the goblin guards and my family seeing that they mimicked me, the two somewhat surprised goblins gave a slight bow, and after that, we entered.

- "They are goblins, be polite, and I would like to talk to them if I could." - The last I said to my parents.

- "You heard Lily and yes, honey, you can talk to them." - With that, we walked over and stood in front of a goblin.

- "What do you want?" - He blurted out rudely.

'I guess I'll just have to get used to the way they treat you.'

♦Good afternoon I give you my greetings sir, may your gold flow and enemies fall on your sword.♦

'Good thing I asked Sev if he could get me a book on goblins.'

The goblin blinked in surprise that such a small child would know his language, as no wizard takes the time to learn their language. Then he stared at her, looking much more surprised now, but his surprise quickly faded.
