"Come along so I can get you situated," Severus said. Harry followed Severus wheeling his trolley over to a compartment door which Severus opened for him. Severus cast a Feather Light spell on his trunk and lifted it onto the train. They found a compartment towards the middle of the train, near the bathrooms. Severus slid Harry's trunk under his seat. "Now remember, do not wait until the last minute before changing into your school robe and do not worry about your trunk once you get to Hogsmeade. The elves will retrieve it and make sure it gets to the right house."
"Okay, Dad."
Severus took a small leather bag out of his pocket and handed it to Harry. "Here is some money for treats on the train."
"Thanks, Dad!" Harry said grinning.
"I will see you at the welcoming feast then," Severus said as he gave Harry a hug.
"Okay, Dad," Harry replied. He got a bit teary eyed as Severus left since it had been only him and his dad the past month. He'd almost managed to forget the eleven years he'd spent with the Dursley's.
Severus waited out of sight on the platform watching the crowd of students and parents moving back and forth like a wave. He spotted Molly Weasley, her four sons, and her only daughter. He recalled she had a son Harry's age and the girl was a year younger. Percy, the eldest of the children attending Hogwarts was a fifth year and the twins, Fred and George, were third years. They seem to be looking for someone because he heard Molly tell her sons, "If you see him, let me know."
Harry was reading when he was interrupted by a knock on the door and looking up he saw two rather large boys hovering in the doorway. "Do you mind if we share your compartment? Everywhere else is mostly full," one of the boys asked.
"Not at all," Harry replied. "Come on in."
"Thanks! I'm Greg Goyle by the way and this is Vince Crabbe."
"I'm Harry Snape," Harry said holding out his hand. He had decided not to use the Potter part of his name because of the revelations of that morning.
Both Greg's and Vince's eyes widened and their mouths dropped open before they remembered their manners and shook Harry's hand. "Nice to meet you."
"Are you related to the Professor Snape that teaches at Hogwarts?" Greg asked. "My dad and Vince's dad were year mates with him at Hogwarts."
"I'm his adopted son. My parents were killed when I was a baby."
"That rough your parents being killed," Vince said sitting down next to Harry.
"It is because I really never knew them," Harry said. "I was living with my aunt and uncle and they hate magic so they never treated me very nice. Dad…Professor Snape brought me my Hogwarts letter and when he found out about their treatment he took me away from them and adopted me."
"My dad talks a lot about him because they were in Slytherin together. Dad says he's brilliant," Greg said.
"And strict," Vince added. "He doesn't stand for any fooling around in his classes."
Harry nodded. "That's because Potions is really dangerous and if you're fooling around and not listening you could cause an accident."
"So what house do you think you'll be in, Harry?" Greg asked.
"I don't know. My parents were both in Gryffindor, but I'm going to ask it to put me somewhere else. What about you guys?"
"Our families have always been in Slytherin," Vince answered. "But we don't think we're really right for Slytherin."
"Where would you rather be?" Harry asked.
"We're thinking Hufflepuff because they're supposed to be friendly and don't judge you," Greg answered.
"Maybe if you let the Sorting Hat know what you think it'll take that into consideration," Harry replied.
At the moment there was a knock on the door and Draco came in. "Harry! I've been looking for you up and down the train." He nodded at the other two boys. "I see you've already met Greg and Vince." He sat down next to Greg.
"Yeah, I was telling them about dad adopting me," Harry replied. "And we talked about the Houses."
Draco sat down, pulled out a pack of cards and they began playing Exploding Snap. There was another knock on the compartment door and a girl with thick, brown curly hair followed by a timid looking boy slightly pudgy and with a heart-shaped face came in. "Has any of you seen a toad? Neville's lost his and we haven't been able to find it."
"Is your toad magical?" Vince asked Neville.
"I think so. My Great-Uncle Algie gave Trevor to me," Neville replied.
"Well, then don't worry about him. He'll find you," Vince assured him. "Why don't you two sit down?"
Neville sat down next to Draco and the girl sat down next to Vince. "I'm Hermione Granger and this is Neville Longbottom."
"I'm Harry Snape. This is Draco Malfoy, Vince Crabbe, and Greg Goyle."
"A pleasure," Hermione replied. "Has anybody seen Harry Potter yet? He's supposed to be starting at Hogwarts this year or that's what the Prophet said this morning. I subscribed to it after I got my Hogwarts letter."
Harry self-consciously made sure his scar was covered while Draco remarked, "He's probably not taking the train to school. I imagine they have a way to bring him straight to Hogwarts probably from wherever he's living."
"That makes sense," Hermione admitted. "Have any of you read your textbooks and what do you think will be your favorite subject?"
"I've read some of all my books," Harry said. "I think I'll like Potions the best, but my mum was good at Charms and my father was good at Transfiguration."
"Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts," Draco said.
"I've read some of the History of Magic and I think that will be interesting. It's taught by a ghost," Gregg said.
