Chereads / (HP) The successor of Snape / Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: 9 and three quarters

Chapter 5 - Chapter 5: 9 and three quarters

Leisurely times always slip away quickly and in no time it was time to go to school. It was time for the young wizards first year of school. The most magical year of them all.

The year when students would learn their first spells and magic knowledge. The time when they would be happy doing their homework, interested in all the new knowledge.

Of course for most the most interesting is the tricky spells and adventuring around the school while discovering hidden pathways and secret rooms.

...

As the morning sun rose and the morning fog was slowly fading away, the roar of a train resounded throughout the King's Cross station in London.

The young Septimus and the always grumpy Severus headed towards the train station in an luxuary limo. It seemes like the old bat spends his money on luxuary cars having quite a collection.

It was quite a suprise to me when he first showed me his collection ranging from old 1964 Ferrari 275 P and Mercedes-Benz W196 Silver Arrow dating back to 1954. He even haid an cool cars from a few years back for example the Ferrari F40 what was the last Ferrari personally approved by its founder.

It made yourself wonder how could a person that didn't even wash his hair have a car collection worth several million. A huge chunk of the Peince family's inheritance must have been spent on his huge collection. Even though 1 gallon equaled roughly 5 pounds.

...

After arriving at the King's Cross station, uncle Snape stayed quiet the whole time no matter what I said to him. The only thing he would even have a responds to was questions about potions, as expected from and potion brewing grandmaster. Looking back at all the potion brewing training I had done over the years made even me shudder.

At least I wouldn't have to worry about potion knowledge till the last school year Newt level, since Uncle Snape wouldn't let me go to school without having the required potion knowledge.

He always said that I would be too big of an embarrassment if I couldn't even brew potions at the owl level.

We headed towards the 9th and the 10th quarter's. Finding the 9 and three quarters platform wasn't hard when you had read many books about wizards since childhood.

I was completely speechless, at him looking dissapointed, "Didn't you really think that your student/son would not know where the entrance is ?"

"Alright now go inside, the teachers have a different way to go to school and I must start preparing for the new first years classes."

With some nerveousness I ran through the brick wall with my luggage. The sight inside was just as the books had described. The train station filled with steam and nothing could be heard besides the sound of train whistles and loud screams trying to be heard over the loud train engine.

"Welcome to nine and three quarters young wizard, go pick your seat in one of the compartment in the train. You don't have to worry about the noise in the train. The trains walls have soundproof enchanted walls."

"Altough in the front of the train you might hear the light sound of the trains Magically enchanted engine. Even though the trains are invented by muggles they are quite durable and quick in transporting young wizards such as yourself that are not allowed to use floo powder, apparation and similar magic."

"Don't be afraid of sitting in the front, the trains engine sounds are actually quite relaxing if you're interested in taking a quick nap before arriving at our destination."

After finishing the long monologue he finally let me go, I couldn't help but think that Harry had been quite lucky when he had been late to the train. At least you didn't have to listen to an trian introduction that is as interesting to me as potion knowledge to Weasley.

I lifted my suitcase and boarded the train.

I quickly found myself and empty compartment in front of the train since I would mind a quick nap.

I levitated the suitcase to the overhead luggage rack with a quick wandless spell. If anybody saw me I could bet that they would be completely be flabbergasted. Since a 7-year old doing wandless magic was completely unheard of.

I sat down near the window and watched the passing students rushing towards the train.

"Sorry, excuse me may we sit here,?" A pair of dark haired girl asked. They seemed very nerveous and shy. It seems like my handsome devilish looks had also traversed to this world.

"Of course, I don't mind. Just don't interrupt my sleep," I lazily responded while fighting the urge to blurt out that I was not ready for any relationships in the near future.

They thanked me and hurriedly sat at the other side of the compartment. It made me think that it wasn't my charm that but they were just sacred of me.

The idea was quickly brushed out of my mind since no woman close to my age can resist my charm.

Soon the train started and I quickly fell asleep.
