The Hogwarts Express

Chapter 4

Elizabeth kept staring out the window. She heard the creak of the compartment door and a young girl walked in, nor saying a thing. She looked a bit upset. "Hi I'm Elizabeth. What's your name?",Elizabeth asked. The girl didn't a swear, so Elizabeth went back to staring out the window. A few hours later, the train stopped. Elizabeth headed out of the train with the other students. "Firs` years over here!",a voice above them called. Elizabeth looked up to see what was a giant. She walked forwards. "Hi I'm Elizabeth Potter. Pleased to meet you!",Elizabeth said to the giant. "Well hello there Elizabeth,"the giant replied,"Rubues Hagrid, Keeper Of the Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts. You can call me Hagrid." "What do you teach?",Elizabeth asked. She wanted to know all the teachers. "Nothing this year. They have all the teachers.",Hagrid replied. "Can we be friends?",Elizabeth asked. "Sure Elizabeth!",Hagrid said. So they followed Hagrid up to the lake and saw many boats sitting on the lake. "No more than four to a boat!",Hagrid told them. Elizabeth boarded a boat with three girls. One of them was the girl who Elizabeth had saw on the train. Elizabeth smiled at them. The boats went all the way to the docks. The docks were under a large cave. Hagrid led the students up to the front door of the castle. He knocked and they opened.
