The Last Horcrux/Hogwarts Express/Arriving at Hogwarts

At long last you have arrived at Hogwarts! After the long journey from London to the Highlands of Scotland, all the school pupils are eager to get off of the train as quickly as possible, and you, Lily and Hermione have to wait as some older boys push and shove their way off first.

You see Hogwarts for the first time! But at the same time, you also remember it

You can see that the other girls are struggling with their heavy luggage, and so you decide to help them out a little. You want to help Lily, and you decide to help Hermione too, so as not to look unkind in front of Lily.

“Wingardium Leviosa” you incant, making Lily’s luggage float in the air, as light as a feather.

“Oh wow!” gasps Lily, “It’s flying!”

“Levitating,” you correct her, as you cast the same enchantment on Hermione’s luggage.

“Thanks Emily,” Hermione says, “I could have cast that spell myself though. I thought they would have someone help us with our luggage.”

“Thanks Emily,” Lily says, smiling, “it’s much easier to move all my things now.”

You and the other girls step off of the train and hear a huge man at the end of the platform, calling for all the first years to follow him.

“Come along now first years, follow me, we’ll be takin’ boats across the lake,” the huge man says, barely needing to raise his powerful voice, “second years an’ above, into the carriages, you know the way.”

You and the other first years follow the man, who is built like a bear with long curly brown hair and beard. You see your friend Lavender Brown, who runs up to you and gives you a hug.

“Emily!” She cries, “I’m sorry I didn’t get to see you! You were right, Diagon Alley was rammed, I should have gone shopping with you much earlier. Did you have a good holiday? I had a great time in France. Who are your friends?”

You introduce Lavender to Lily and Hermione, very glad that at least one of your Pureblood friends is being welcoming to them. Then you notice Draco Malfoy, looking at you in disgust.

Draco is a moody bastard

“Have you found another Mudblood Lestrange?” He asks you, sneering, “you ought to know better than to hang out with them, you should be with your own kind. You too Lavender.”

Lavender just turns around and raises her nose at Malfoy, giving him a stupid look to let him know what she thinks of his judgement.

In return, Draco and his little gang, including Crabbe, Goyle, Pansy and Daphne give you all dirty looks and walk off in a huff.

You then see a tall, serious looking North African boy walking toward you. It’s your cousin Blaise Zambini, from the Libyan side of your mothers family, whom you’ve only met a couple of times before.

Your cousin is becoming a handsome young wizard

“Cousin,” he says, smiling, his arms open wide. You walk up to him and you hug, him kissing you on both cheeks. He says something in Italian but you don’t catch it, apologising to him in French which he switches into effortlessly.

“I thought you were going to Beauxbatons?” You ask him.

“My mother did want me to,” Blaise admits, “but my father said I could come here if I wanted to, and Hogwarts is by far the best place to learn magic. Who are your lovely friends?”

Switching back to English, you introduce him to Lily, Hermione and Lavender. He kindly greets them all, shaking their hand, but on hearing Lavender’s pureblood family name, and no doubt seeing her signet ring when he shakes hands with her, he surprises the girl by kissing her hand. Lavender blushes bright red and looks away, giggling.

“Emily,” Blaise continues, “Draco has been saying I should join House Slytherin with you and the others. You do want to join House Slytherin right? It’s traditional for the Lestranges?”

“But of course,” you reply, “Everyone knows that House Slytherin is the best.”

“I don’t think it’s the best,” says Lavender, “I want to be a Gryffindor. They’re so brave and heroic!”

“Gryffindor are a bunch of goody two-shoes Lavender,” you tease her, “sooo boring.”

“Yes Lavender,” Blaise agrees with you, “come and join us in Slytherin. It’s the best House for any ambitious witch or wizard.”

You continue to discuss the merits of various houses when you notice a smallish boy with messy black hair and large round glasses, walking with a ginger haired boy who is no doubt a Weasley. The black haired boy looks up at you, and just for a moment you make eye contact with him.

Harry Potter.

You make eye contact with Harry Potter

Before you have time to find your thoughts, you feel a stabbing pain, deep inside your head. It makes you wince and hold your temples, you have to close your eyes and grit your teeth to cope with it. Then you hear the boy cry out in pain too, and people start anxiously checking on you both.

“Emily, are you ok?” Blaise cries out in concern, catching you as you fall to the floor. You hear Lily and Hermione and Lavender asking you the same question, as well as people yelling “Harry! Harry!” And then everything goes black.

You decide to withdraw yourself for a moment, let the girl take over. She won’t betray you. She knows what you would do.

You open your eyes, and see Lily, Hermione and Lavender looking down at you, your head cradled in Lily’s lap as she gently strokes your hair. When they see you are conscious, Blaise helps you to your feet, and you see that the giant man, who’s name is Hagrid, has helped Harry Potter to his feet.

…You have a sudden vision of a baby, standing and crying, his mother throwing herself in front of him as you rage and hurl magical death at them both…

His parents! The monster murdered his parents!

You gasp and raise your hands to your mouth, blinking back tears as you realise what the monster did. You grit your teeth and will yourself not to cry.

He murdered Harry’s parents.

You make some excuse about having a migraine, but you can see that Hermione at least is suspicious that you and Harry both had some kind of painful fainting attack at the same time. Blaise is a gentleman and helps you and Lily into a magical boat, even moving Lily’s luggage for her. Hermione and Lavender get into another boat with a boy named Neville, who appears to have found his toad. You keep your distance from the boy named Harry, and realise that the monster is hiding, like a snake under a rock.

He can’t be near Harry Potter. It hurts him when he gets too close.

• You make your way across the lake, and enter the Great Hall
