The 1 September 1989 was a rather nice Friday.
That didn't help with my anxiety while standing alone in King's cross Station with a cap pulled low over my face.
Mrs. Emley had already gone back to the orphanage, her behavior today was really weird and something that scared me.
It all began this morning when she knocked at my door in the orphanage, and told me that she will escort me to King's cross station in 20 minutes, and that I should be ready by then.
So when I came down with my trunk, she was already waiting outside with a Taxi.
After we stowed my trunk in the taxi and then drove to Kings Cross station, then took out my trunk, she just said that she will collect me when school ends at June got in the taxi, and they then drove off, probably to the Orphanage, I know that Professor Burbage spelled Mrs. Emley so that she would bring me to the station, but I didn't except that it would be so easy.
I mean she flicked her want 4 times and presumably programmed Mrs. Emley so that she would do the task without asking a question, or a second though.
It is terrifying how easy it is to manipulate someone's mind with magic, especially as it goes against Mrs. Emley nature.
Even if she let us Orphans have or freedom, she would never let an 11 year old boy alone in one of the busiest train stations in the UK!
That just shows me that I was right, this world is dangerous, Mrs Burbage didn't even hesitate or show any sing of discomfort when she basically mind controlled someone.
Maybe she didn't see it as mind control, especially as Mrs. Emley is free to do as she likes, it's just that she will ignore my existens while I am in Hogwarts and makes excuses in the case that someone would be searching for me, something that I don't think will happen .
Or and that is far more worrying and scary, because Mrs. Emley is a muggel Professor Burbage just didn't care.
Hopefully it's the first reason.
But I can think about that later, now I need to catch my train, while moving with a trolley with my trunk on it to platform 9 3/4 I try to discreetly dodge any camera that I could see, even if I have my cap that I brought with me low over my face, I still don't want to be captured by a camera or CCTV.
Because if I knew that Wizard's exists while I'm working in a higher position for the Government and I knew that every year future wizard's and witches will enter Kings Cross station with a trunk and an owl, then I would put people disguised as tourist in Kings cross and make pictures of those children and their parents, and then I would have them follow their parents back home so that I could find out their names, because I don't think that they have Facial recognition in 1989.
It could be that I'm paranoid, but better safe than sorry or dead or captured by the non-magical Government.
After a short walk, I arrived at the Barrier that divides Platform 9 from 10, one thing that I observed was that nobody looked at the place, they all ignored it exactly like the Leaky Caoudlron.
I tried to feel something from the wall, and I think that I felt something, but i not sure what exactly,
maybe it's the portal that felt, or it could even be my Imagination.
I tried to touch the wall with my pinkie, my most expendable body part, and it did go through the wall.
After three seconds I took it back out and observed it, after findings nothing amiss with it, I decided to risk going through it, it's not like I could stand here the whole day, and except for Harry's Second year the Barrier/ Portal always worked.
A case of literary theft: this tale is not rightfully on Amazon; if you see it, report the violation.
So I took my trolley and walked showy through the barrier, I don't know why in most fanfic people are running through it, especially as I distinctly remember that in the movie or the books someone leaned on the barrier and passed through it without any running.
Moving through the Portal was an interesting experience, it felt like pushing through a thin moving film of water.
It's nothing that I want to do often, maybe that's the reason why they are running through it, so that they could shorten the experience.
After coming through the portal, I arrived at an almost empty platform, and on the tracks on the left of me stood the Hogwarts express, I must confess that trains never really interested me, but even I can see that this train is impressive.
But even if it's impressive it didn't hold my attention for long, after moving out of the way and putting the trolley on it's designated parking space, I took my trunk and pulled it towards the Train, I'm really happy that this damm thing has wheels on it.
And even if it was a little awkward, I finally managed to pull the trunk into the rain.
The inside of the train was like every other train compartment that I saw, even if it seemed that the compartments were far larger than they should have been.
After walking down the train and finding some compartments already occupied, even if the train will leave in 1 hour, I arrived approximately at the middle of the train where i found a compartment that faced the opposite direction of the Portal.
After putting my Trunk under my seat, something that I saw other older student's in other compartments doing, I sat down and looked out the window, where I noticed other train tracks, maybe the Hogwarts express is not the only train that to the magical site of King's Cross.
I soon grew bored with the nonexistent view out the window, so I stood up again and pulled out my rune book out of my trunk and started reading, or rather pretended to read while mentally planing my next steps.
In 9 hours I will be at Hogwarts, if I can get past the sorting without getting found out, I will have 7 years of school at Hogwarts.
The first and second year should be manageable, but from my third year things will get dangerous.
That means I should make/Steal the marauders map before my third year, and use the Room of Requirements as much as possible, I should probably first steal the Marauder's map so that I can easier sneak through the castle.
The Disillusionment Charm should my goal for now, with it and the marauder's map I should be able to reach The Room of Requirements without getting spotted by a teacher or a Prefect.
And attack spells, I think that there were Doxis in the RoR.
My musings were interrupted when the whistle for the Hogwarts express sounded,
I noticed that in the last 60 minutes, a lot of students boarded the express, thankfully nobody joined my compartment.
As we were slowly moved out of the King's Cross station i once again focused on my plan for Hogwarts, besides my initial plan for my first and second year the rest of my time in Hogwarts can be summed up in one sentences.
Don't get involved and keep my head down.
I saw a lot a story's where the mc changed everything about the plot, most of them justified theme self with the Butterfly Effect.
That their mere existens will change everything.
Something that I disagree with, I don't believe that if you have almost zero interaction with the people on which the story revolves, that you would change anything.
Of course, if you're the best friend of the main character and butt in every scene, then the story will change.
Some even want to be known a genius, they show to everyone how great they are, how intelligent they can be, how group's of women fall for them.
They think that they must change everything, as an example.
Someone is reincarnated in the Harry Potter universe, they befriend Harry Potter and the rest of the trio, they are a genius without compare, with eyes like sapphire's, Prominent cheekbones and other ridicules stuff like that.
After a year at Hogwarts, they expose Pettingrew, safe Sirius and Battle the Dark lord, create new spells and already have a girlfriend.
Something like that could only happen in a story, not in the real world.
I will not expose or even spy on capture Pettingrew, it doesn't matter how pathetic he seemed in the movies and books, the fact is that he managed to betray the potter's, hide in a family of wizard and then enter Hogwarts and stay there for years without getting found out.
And he murdered Cedric Diggory without remorse, and that's without knowing what he did as a Death eater.
So No, I will not expose him, he may be successful captured, but it could be that he can escape, and then take revenge on me.
I will never show myself as a genius, The Dark lord will be at Hogwarts in my third year, if I show that I'm better than anyone else, than I may get on his Radar, and I don't think that this would be healthy for me.
No, I will stay away from them, I don't want to meddle in things that could get me killed or destroy the future.
What if I make a mistake that causes the Dark lord's victory? Thousand's could die because I wanted to feel important.
And to be honest, I'm afraid, this is my second chance, and I don't want to prematurely because I want to be a Hero.
So keep my head down mouth shut and memories hidden, and I should avoid the Room of Requirements in my third year when the Dark lord is in the castle, and in my fourth year after Halloween when the basilisk is released.
The exception would be if I have a map that is similar to the Marauder's map, just better, maybe something that could record the going on’s in the castle.
That is actually a fantastic idea, I shouldn't forget it.
Before I could think more on it, an announcement was made that we will be arriving in Hogsmeade in 10 minutes.
As stood up and locked the door so that I could change, the only thought that was going through my head was.
Where the hell was the trolley witch?
