Asked Harry, who found Ron just as interesting as Ron found him. Er - yes, I think so, said Ron. I think Mums got a second cousin whos an accountant, but we never talk about him. So you must know loads of magic already. The Weasleys were clearly one of those old wizarding families the pale boy in Diagon Alley had talked about. I heard you went to live with Muggles, said Ron. What are they like. Horrible - well, not all of them. My aunt and uncle and cousin are, though. Wish Id had three wizard brothers. Five, said Ron. For some reason, he was looking gloomy. Im the sixth in our family to go to Hogwarts. You could say Ive got a lot to live up to. Bill and Charlie have already left - Bill was head boy and Charlie was captain of Quidditch. Now Percys a prefect. Fred and George mess around a lot, but they still get really good marks and everyone thinks theyre really funny. Everyone expects me to do as well as the others, but if I do, its no big deal, because they did it first. You never get anything new, either, with five brothers. Ive got Bills old robes, Charlies old wand, and Percys old rat. Ron reached inside his jacket and pulled out a fat gray rat, which was asleep. His names Scabbers and hes useless, he hardly ever wakes up. Percy got an owl from my dad for being made a prefect, but they couldnt aff - I mean, I got Scabbers instead. Rons ears went pink. He seemed to think hed said too much, because he went back to staring out of Counter strike funny gifs window. Harry didnt think there was anything wrong with not being able to afford an owl. After all, hed never had any money in his life until a month ago, and he told Ron so, all about having to wear Dudleys old clothes and never getting proper birthday presents. This seemed to cheer Ron up. and until Hagrid told me, I didnt know anything about being a wizard or about my parents or Voldemort - Ron gasped. What. said Harry. You said You-Know-Whos name. said Ron, sounding both shocked and impressed. Id have thought you, of all people - Im not trying to be brave or anything, saying the name, said Harry, I just never knew you shouldnt. See what I mean. Ive got loads to learn. I bet, he added, voicing for the first time something that had been worrying him a lot lately, I bet Im the worst in the class. You wont be. Theres loads of people who come from Muggle families and they learn quick enough. While they had been talking, the train had carried them out of London. Now they were speeding past fields full of cows and sheep. They were quiet for a time, watching the fields and lanes flick past. Around half past twelve there was a great clattering outside in the corridor and a smiling, dimpled woman slid back their door and said, Anything off the cart, dears. Harry, who hadnt had any breakfast, leapt to his feet, but Rons ears went pink again and he muttered that hed brought sandwiches. Harry went out into the corridor. He had never had any money for candy with the Dursleys, and now that he had read more rattling with gold and silver he was ready to buy as many Mars Bars as he could carry - but the woman didnt have Mars Bars. What she did have were Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, Droobles Best Blowing Gum, Chocolate Frogs, Pumpkin Pasties, Cauldron Cakes, Licorice Wands, and a number of other strange things Harry had never seen in his life. Not wanting to miss anything, he got some of everything and paid the woman eleven silver Sickles and seven bronze Knuts. Ron stared as Harry brought it all back in to the compartment and tipped it onto an empty seat. Hungry, are you. Starving, said Harry, taking a large bite out of a pumpkin pasty. Ron had taken out a lumpy package and unwrapped it. There were four sandwiches inside. He pulled one of them apart and said, She always forgets I dont like corned beef. Swap you for one of these, said Harry, holding up a pasty. Go on - You dont want this, its all dry, said Ron. She hasnt got much time, he added quickly, you know, with five of us. Go on, have a pasty, said Harry, who had never had anything to share before or, indeed, anyone to share it with. It was a nice feeling, sitting there with Ron, eating their way through all Harrys pasties, cakes, and candies (the sandwiches lay forgotten). What are these. Harry asked Ron, holding up a pack of Chocolate Frogs. Theyre not really frogs, are they. He was starting to feel that nothing would surprise him. No, said Ron. But see what the card is. Im missing Agrippa. What. Oh, of course, you wouldnt know - Chocolate Frogs have cards inside them, you know, to collect - famous witches and wizards. Ive got about five hundred, but I havent got Agrippa or Ptolemy. Harry unwrapped his Chocolate Frog and picked up the card. It showed a mans face. He wore half-moon glasses, had a long, crooked nose, https://freestrategygames.cloud/apex/apex-valkyrie-icon.php flowing silver hair, beard, and mustache. Underneath the picture was the name Albus Dumbledore. So this is Dumbledore. said Harry. Dont tell me youd never heard of Dumbledore. said Ron. Counter strike funny gifs I have a frog. I might get Agrippa - thanks - Harry turned over his card and read: ALBUS DUMBLEDORE CURRENTLY HEADMASTER OF HOGWARTS Considered by many the greatest wizard of modern times, Dumbledore is particularly famous shall call of duty warzone coloring pages xbox one please his defeat of the Dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, for the discovery of the twelve uses of dragons blood, and his work on alchemy with his partner, Nicolas Flamel. Professor Dumbledore enjoys chamber music and tenpin bowling. Harry turned the card back over and saw, to his astonishment, that Dumbledores face had disappeared. Hes gone. Well, you cant expect him to hang around all day, said Ron. Hell be back. No, Ive got Morgana again and Ive got about six of her. do you want it. You can start collecting. Rons eyes strayed to the pile of Chocolate Frogs waiting to be unwrapped. Help yourself, said Harry. But in, you know, the Muggle world, people just stay put in photos. Do they. What, they dont move at continue reading. Ron sounded amazed. Weird. Harry stared as Dumbledore sidled back into the picture on his card and gave him a small smile. Ron was more interested in eating the frogs than looking at the Famous Witches and Wizards cards, but Harry couldnt keep his eyes off them. Soon he had not only Dumbledore and Morgana, but Hengist of Woodcroft, Alberic Grunnion, Circe, Paracelsus, and Merlin. He finally tore his eyes away from the druidess Cliodna, who was scratching her nose, to open a bag of Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans. You want to be careful with those, Ron warned Harry. When they say every flavor, more info mean every flavor - you know, you get all the ordinary ones like chocolate and peppermint and marmalade, but then you can get spinach and liver and tripe. George reckons he had a booger-flavored one once. Ron picked up a green bean, looked at it carefully, and bit into a corner. Bleaaargh - see. Sprouts. They had a good time eating the Every Flavor Beans. Harry got toast, coconut, baked bean, strawberry, curry, grass, coffee, sardine, and was even brave enough to nibble the end off a funny gray one Ron wouldnt touch, learn more here turned out to be pepper. The countryside now flying past the window was becoming wilder. The neat fields had gone. Now there were woods, twisting rivers, and dark green hills. There was a knock on the door of their compartment and the round-faced boy Harry had passed on platform nine and three-quarters came in. He looked tearful. Sorry, he said, but have you seen a toad at all. When they shook their heads, he wailed, Ive lost him. He keeps getting away from me. Hell turn up, said Harry. Yes, said the boy miserably. Well, if you see him. He left. Dont know why hes so bothered, said Ron. If Id brought a toad Id lose it as quick as I could. Mind you, I brought Scabbers, so I cant talk. The rat was still snoozing on Rons lap. He might have died and you wouldnt know the difference, said Ron in disgust. I tried to turn him yellow yesterday to make him more interesting, but the spell didnt work. Ill show you, look. He rummaged around in his trunk and pulled out a very battered-looking wand. It was chipped in places and something white was glinting at the end. Unicorn hairs nearly poking out. Anyway - He had just raised his wand when the compartment door slid open again. The toadless boy was back, but this time he had a girl with him. She was already wearing her new Hogwarts robes. Has anyone seen a toad. Nevilles lost one, she said. She had a bossy sort of voice, lots of bushy brown hair, and rather large front teeth. Weve already told him we havent seen it, said Ron, but the girl wasnt listening, she was looking at the wand in his hand. Oh, are you doing magic. Lets see it, then. She sat down. Ron looked taken aback. Er - all right. He cleared his throat. Sunshine, daisies, butter mellow, Turn this stupid, fat rat yellow. He waved his wand, but nothing happened. Scabbers stayed gray and fast asleep. Are you sure thats a real spell. said the girl. Well, its not very good, is it. Ive tried a few simple spells just for practice and its all worked for me. Nobody in my familys magic at all, it was ever such a surprise when I got my letter, but I was ever so pleased, of course, I mean, its the very best school of witchcraft there is, Ive heard - Ive learned all our course books by heart, of course, I just hope it will be enough - Im Hermione Granger, by the way, who are you. She said all this very fast. Harry looked at Ron, and was more info to see by his stunned face that he hadnt learned all the course books by heart either. Im Ron Weasley, Ron muttered. Harry Potter, said Harry. Are you really. said Hermione. I know all about you, of course - I got a few extra books for background reading, and youre in Modern Magical History and The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts and Great Wizarding Events of the Twentieth Century. Am I. said Harry, feeling dazed. Goodness, didnt you know, Id have found out everything I could if it was me, said Hermione. Do read more of you know what House youll be in. Ive been asking around, and I hope Im in Gryffindor, it sounds by far the best; I hear Dumbledore himself was in it, but I suppose Ravenclaw wouldnt be too bad. Anyway, wed better go and look for Nevilles toad. You two had better greenhouse fallout 4 build, you know, I expect well be there soon. And she left, taking the toadless boy with her. Whatever House Im in, I hope shes not in it, said Ron. He threw his wand back into his trunk. Stupid spell - George gave it to me, bet he knew it was a dud. What House are your brothers in. asked Harry. Gryffindor, said Ron. One max xbox pubg seemed to be settling on him again. Mum and Dad were in it, too. I dont know what theyll say if Im not. I dont suppose Ravenclaw would be too bad, but imagine if they put me in Slytherin. Thats the House Pubg game zone, I mean, You-Know-Who was in. Yeah, said Ron. He flopped back into his seat, looking depressed. You know, I think the ends of Scabbers whiskers are a bit lighter, said Harry, trying to take Rons mind off Houses. So what do your oldest brothers do now that theyve left, anyway. Harry was wondering what a wizard did once hed finished school. Charlies in Romania studying dragons, and Bills in Africa doing something for Gringotts, said Ron. Did you hear about Gringotts. Its been all over the Daily Prophet, but I dont suppose you get that with the Muggles - someone tried to rob a high security vault. Harry stared. Really. What happened to them. Nothing, thats why its such big news. They havent been caught. My dad says it mustve been a powerful Dark wizard to get round Gringotts, but they dont think they took anything, thats whats odd. Course, everyone gets scared when something like this happens in case You-Know-Whos behind it. Harry turned this news over in his mind. He was starting to get a prickle of fear every time You-Know-Who was mentioned. He supposed this was all part of entering the magical world, but it had been a lot more comfortable saying Voldemort without worrying. Whats your Quidditch team. See more asked. Er - I dont know any, Harry confessed. What. Ron looked dumbfounded. Oh, you wait, its the best game in the world - And he was off, explaining all about the four balls and the positions of the seven players, describing famous games hed been to with his brothers and the broomstick hed like to get if he had the money. He was just taking Harry through the finer points of the game when the compartment door slid open yet again, but it wasnt Neville the toadless boy, or Hermione Granger this time. Three boys entered, and Harry recognized the middle one at once: It was the pale boy from Madam Malkins robe shop. He was looking at Harry with a lot more interest than hed shown back in Diagon Alley. Is it true. he said. Theyre saying all down the train that Harry Potters in this compartment. So its you, is it. Yes, said Harry. He was looking at the other boys. Both of them were thickset and looked extremely mean. Standing on either side of the pale boy, they looked like bodyguards. Oh, this is Crabbe and this is Goyle, said the pale boy carelessly, noticing where Harry was looking. And my names Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. Ron gave a slight cough, which might have been hiding a snigger. Draco Malfoy looked at him. Think my names funny, do you. No need to ask who you are. My father told me all the Weasleys have red hair, freckles, and more children than they can afford. He turned back to Harry. Youll soon find out some wizarding families are much better than others, Potter. You dont want to go making friends with the wrong sort. I can help you there. He held out his hand to shake Harrys, but Harry didnt take it. I think I can tell who the wrong sort are for myself, thanks, he said coolly. Draco Malfoy didnt go red, but a pink tinge appeared in his pale cheeks. Id be careful if I were you, Potter, he said slowly. Unless youre a bit politer youll go the same way as your parents. They didnt know what was good for them, either. You hang around with riffraff like the Weasleys and that Hagrid, and itll rub off on you. Both Harry and Ron stood up. Say that again, Ron said, his face as red as his hair. Oh, youre going pubg xbox 360 hd fight us, are you. Malfoy sneered. Unless you get out now, said Harry, more bravely than he felt, because Crabbe and Goyle were a lot bigger than him or Ron. But we dont feel like leaving, do we, boys. Weve eaten all our food and you still seem to have some. Goyle reached toward the Chocolate Frogs next to Ron - Ron leapt forward, but before hed so much as touched Goyle, Goyle let out a horrible yell. Scabbers the rat was hanging off his finger, sharp little teeth sunk deep into Goyles knuckle - Crabbe and Malfoy backed away as Goyle swung Scabbers round and round, howling, and when Scabbers finally flew off and hit the window, all three of them disappeared at once. Perhaps they thought there were more rats lurking among the sweets, or perhaps theyd heard footsteps, because a second later, Hermione Granger had come in. What has been going on. she said, looking at the sweets all over the floor and Ron picking up Scabbers by his tail. I think hes been knocked out, Ron said to Harry. He looked closer at Scabbers. No - I dont believe it - hes gone back to sleep. And so he had. Youve met Malfoy before. Harry explained about their meeting in Diagon Alley. Ive heard of his family, said Ron darkly. They were some of the first to come back to our side after You-Know-Who disappeared. Said theyd been bewitched. My dad doesnt believe it. He says Malfoys father didnt need an excuse to go over to the Dark Side. He turned to Hermione. Can we help you with something. Youd better hurry up and put your robes on, Ive just been up to the front to ask the conductor, and he says were nearly there. You havent been fighting, have you. Youll be in trouble before we even get there. Scabbers has been fighting, not us, said Ron, scowling at her. Would you mind leaving while we change. All right - I only came in here because people outside are behaving very childishly, racing up and down the corridors, said Hermione in a sniffy voice. And youve got dirt on your nose, by the way, did you know. Ron glared at her as she left. Harry peered out of the window. It was getting dark. He could see mountains and forests under a deep purple sky.
He asked, pointing at the jackets. Finest dragon skin, little bro, said Fred, giving his zip a little tweak. Business is booming and we thought wed treat ourselves. Hello, Harry, said Lupin, as Mrs. Weasley let go of Harry and turned to greet Hermione. Hi, said Harry. I didnt expect. what are you all doing here. Well, said Lupin with a slight smile, we thought we might have a little chat with your aunt and uncle before letting them take you home. I dunno if thats a good idea, said Harry at once. Oh, I think it is, growled Moody, who had limped a little closer. Thatll be them, will it, Potter. He zp with his thumb over his shoulder; his magical eye was evidently peering through the back of his head mmens his bowler hat. Harry leaned an inch or so to the left to see where Mad-Eye sip pointing and there, sure enough, were the three Dursleys, who looked positively appalled to see Harrys reception committee. Ah, Https://freestrategygames.cloud/windows/pubg-battlegrounds-mobile.php. said Mr. Weasley, turning from Hermiones parents, whom he had been greeting enthusiastically, and who were taking it in turns to hug Hermione. Well - shall we do it, then. Yeah, I reckon so, Arthur, said Moody. He and Mr. Weasley took the lead across the station toward the place where the Dursleys stood, apparently rooted to the floor. Hermione disengaged herself gently from her mother to join the group. Good afternoon, said Mr. Weasley pleasantly to Uncle Vernon, coming to a halt right in front wellihgton him. You might remember me, my names Arthur Weasley. As Mr. Weasley had singlehandedly demolished most of the Dursleys living booots two years previously, Harry would have been very surprised if Uncle Vernon had forgotten him. Sure enough, Uncle Vernon turned a deeper shade of puce and glared at Mr. Weasley, but chose not nens say anything, partly, perhaps, because the Dursleys were shory two to one. Aunt Petunia looked both frightened and embarrassed. She kept glancing around, as though terrified somebody she knew would see her in such company. Dudley, meanwhile, seemed to be trying to look small and insignificant, a feat at which he was failing extravagantly. We thought wed just have a few words with you about Harry, said Mr. Weasley, still smiling. Yeah, growled Moody. About how hes treated when hes at your place. Uncle Vernons mustache seemed to bristle with indignation. Possibly because the bowler hat gave him the entirely mistaken impression that he was dealing with a kindred spirit, he addressed himself to Moody. I am not aware that it is any of your business what goes paex in my house - I expect what youre not aware of would fill several books, Dursley, growled Moody. Anyway, thats not the point, interjected Tonks, whose pink hair seemed to offend Aunt Petunia more than all the rest put together, for she closed her eyes rather than look at her. The point is, if we find out youve been horrible to Harry - - and make no mistake, well hear about it, added Lupin pleasantly. Yes, said Mr. Weasley, even if you wont let Harry use the fellytone - Telephone, whispered Hermione. Yeah, if we get any hint that Potters been mistreated in any way, youll have us to answer to, said Moody. Uncle Vernon swelled ominously. His sense of outrage seemed to outweigh even his fear of this bunch of oddballs. Are you threatening me, sir. he said, so loudly that passersby actually turned to stare. Yes, I am, said Mad-Eye, who seemed rather pleased that Uncle Vernon had grasped this fact so quickly. And do I look like the kind of man who can be intimidated. barked Uncle Vernon. Well. said Moody, pushing back his bowler hat to reveal his sinisterly revolving magical eye. Uncle Vernon leapt backward in horror just click for source collided painfully with a luggage trolley. Yes, Id have to say you do, Dursley. He turned from Uncle Vernon to Harry. So, Potter. give us a shout if you need us. If we weklington hear from you for three days in a row, well send someone along. Aunt Petunia whimpered piteously. It could not have been plainer that she was thinking of what the neighbors would say if they caught sight of these people marching up the garden path. Bye, then, Potter, said Moody, grasping Harrys shoulder for a moment with a gnarled hand. Take care, Harry, said Lupin quietly. Keep in touch. Harry, well have you away from there as soon as we can, Mrs. Weasley whispered, hugging him again. Well Muck boot mens apex zip short wellington boots you soon, mate, said Ron anxiously, shaking Harrys hand. Really soon, Harry, said Hermione earnestly. We promise. Harry nodded. He somehow could not find words to tell them what it meant to him, to see them all ranged there, on his side. Instead he smiled, raised a hand in farewell, turned around, and led the way out of the station toward the sunlit street, with Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia, and Dudley hurrying along in his wake.
