Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Finally at Hogwarts



After finishing their sandwich, Ron was full. Then there was a knocking on the door and a lady with a cart full of candy came in.

"Do you boys want anything?" Ask the lady.

"I'll take the whole cart" said Harry then he took out a pouch full of Galleons from his Mokeskin pouch and hands it to the lady.

The lady counts the Galleons in the pouch then smile and said "thank you, the cart is now yours" then she left

Then Harry told Ron, Dudley, and Buck to take some, while putting the rest away. Suddenly their cabin door swung open and Hermione who holding a book, came in.

"Sorry but a boy lost his pet toad... Harry, it's you," said Hermione.

"Oh Hermione, what are you doing here?" Ask Harry.

"I'm helping a boy name Neville to help find his pet toad," said Hermione.

"Did anybody see a rat while looking for the toad?" Ask Ron

"No, I guess everyone lost their pets today," said Hermione.

"Talk about pets, where is Fiona?" Ask Harry.

"I left her at home. The rule state that first year student is only allowed to bring small pet like owl, cat, or toad," said Hermione.

"It's fine I already have permission to bring her so it's fine," said Harry.

"It's too late and I don't want to break the rule," said Hermione

"It will only take a second" then Harry told Buck to release his killing intent.

Hermione felt Buck deadly gaze and step back in fear. Then her hands light up and Fiona appeared while releasing a frost nova. Buck swung down his dagger down and cancel out the spell.

"Such a pretty birdy. Can I ride it?" Ask Buck.

"Whoa, is that a Phoenix? Why is it blue? Should it be using fire magic?" Questioned Ron

"You 2 knock it off and go complete your Blood Bond," said Harry.

"Here is the thing mate, I don't know how," said Buck.

Harry smacks his forehead and then ask Fiona to teach Buck, how to Blood Bond. After they finish the Blood Bond, they chatted for a bit then Hermione remember she was looking for a toad and went out to look for the toad.

After a while, the train stop, and everyone got off the train. When everyone got off the train, Harry and Ron saw a giant holding a lamp. The giant turns out to be Hagrid and he rush over to Harry when he spotted him.

"Harry, I can't find Buck any where" Hagrid held a decoy Buck made from straws.

"It's all right Hagrid; Buck just wants to take the train with us to Hogwarts" Harry then point at Buck who was on Ron's shoulder.

"That is good to hear" said Hagrid then he gathered all the first years and brought them to the Black Lake, where there was a bunch of small boats is gather.

"Everyone get on a boat, and we will be using it to cross the Black Lake to Hogwarts," said Hagrid.

Harry got in a boat with Dudley and Ron then let them paddle while he enjoys the view of Hogwarts.

"I'm finally here" though Harry

When they reach the shore, everyone got off their boat and enter Hogwarts. After going up a couple of stairs they saw McGonagall waiting for them.

McGonagall gave an orientation of Hogwarts deciding each house which is Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Then she talks about Hogwarts points system but later was cut off by Neville, who found his Toad. McGonagall finish what she had to say and went into the doors behind her.

"Harry" suddenly Harry heard some call his name and turn toward the direction of the voice.

He saw Cassandra with Nina (9 tail fox) on her shoulder, walking forward and said "I was looking for you"

"Sorry, my grandmother convinced Professor Dumbledore to let her be a teaching assistant at Hogwarts and we rode on the train together," said Cassandra.

"*ahem* Harry who is she?" Ask a voice behind Harry.

Harry turns and saw Hermione with a questioning face. "Oh, this is Cassandra, Cassandra this is Hermione"

Cassandra lowers her eye and look at Hermione releasing some of her fire aura. Hermione felt the aura and open her Grimoire. The Grimoire lights up and release a cold aura. Their aura managed to scare most of the first years.

"Ok that is enough you 2, " said Harry and he aim his Haki at both of them, making them stop.

"Who is she to you Harry?" Ask Cassandra.

"She my friend that is a girl," said Harry.

"I'm not your girlfriend," said Hermione.

"Since you're not his girlfriend then you should stay away from him," said Cassandra

"Why should I? I still owe him a favor," said Hermione.

"No need, Harry is a wealthy man," said Cassandra

The ladies went back and forth until a boy with blonde hair said something " so it's true, Harry Potter came to Hogwarts"

After hearing what the boy said, there was whisper among the first year.

The boy walks over smugly with his 2 followers and introduce himself and his 2 follower "this is Crabbe and Goyle. I'm Draco Malfoy"

Ron laughs after hearing Draco's name, making Draco glare at Ron. "Do you think my name is funny? I can already guess your name. Red hair, a hand me down robe, and carrying a weasel. You must be a Weasley."

"You got a problem with weasel, young lad?" Ask Buck. Then he jumps over to Draco shoulder and place his dagger on his neck. "Choose your next word carefully"

Draco stood still in fear while his followers didn't know what to do. Ron was happy that Buck stands up for him.
