The Exception

Chapter 3

Within a few weeks, my "abilities" have grown in numerous ways. I can now manipulate basic elements.
This was found out by playing in a stream nearby, and by some weird ass miracle, I had moved the watter.
"So I'm a wizard, and the avatar. Talk about being overpowered." I thought while following my mother near the train station.
"Oh, I'm sorry, dear. I have a few errands to run while in London." She said as she pulled me into a big hug.
"I'm so proud of you, and I can't wait to see how amazing you'll become." She whispered into my ear as she quickly let go and walked away.
"Well, that sounded close to a goodbye as it could be." I thought quckly walking towards the trains. I looked closely at my ticket, noticing the number 9 3/4 written in bold to show where I would need to go.
  "Exscuse me. Can you tell me where I might find platforms 9 and 3/4?" I heard the familiar voice of Harry Potter close by. I looked over to see him speaking with someone whom I believed worked at the station.
  "9 and 3/4? Think you're being funny, do ya?" The larger man said before walking away.
  "Harry!" I exclaimed, jogging over while still pushing the cart.
  "Sarah!? It's good to see you." Harry said a smile spreading crossed his face.
  "You as well. Are you headed for platforms 9 and 3/4 as well?" I say, knowing full well that's where we're headed.
  "Yes, you wouldn't know how to get to it, would you?" He asked a bit worriedly.
  "No, my mother didn't tell me. I'm as lost as you are." I say, furrowing my brows.
  "Technically, I do, but I can't have him missing the chance of meeting the Wesley's." I think as we both stand there looking dumbfounded.
  "It's the same every year. Packed with muggles, of course. Come on now." We heard a lady say as she walked on by.
  "Muggles?" Harry said before slowly following after them.
  "Hey! Wait up!" I exclaimed, following after him.
  "Alright, Percy, you first." The red-haired woman said as one of the older red heads walked over to the wall. He began running at it and then disappearing into the wall.
  "This is so fucking awesome!" I internally fan screech.
  "Fred, you next." The same lady said looking at one of the twin boys.
  "He's not Fred, I am!" Said the other identical boy next to each other.
  "Honestly, women, you call yourself our mother." Said the other next to him.
  "Oh, I'm sorry George." Their mother replied sound a bit exasperated.
  One of the twins went up and stop before the wall.
  "I'm only joking. I am Fred." He said before also running through the wall as his other half soon follows.
  Harry seems to finally get a grip on himself as he quickly shakes his head before walking up towards the family.
  "Excuse me. Could you tell me how to..." Said said quietly as he stared at where the other three had disappeared.
  I walked up closely behind Harry not to bump our carts together before explaining what he was asking.
  "Could you please help us get onto the platform?" I say from next to both of them as the three Wesley's left in the muggle station stared at us both.
  "Yes, not to worry, dearies. It's Ron's first time to Hogwarts." Ms. Wesley said as she points at her youngest son to the left of me. I looked over and gently smile before focusing on what Ms. Wesley says.
  "Now all you got to do is walk straight at the wall between platforms 9 and 10." She said looking between the wall, Harry and me.
  "Best do it at a run if you're nervous." She says patting our shoulders gently.
  "Good luck." I heard from beside Ms. Wesley. I looked over at the adorable little girl beside her.
  "Thank you sweetie." I say back as I watch as Harry moves up to the walls a few feet away before running through it. I stare in amazement as he goes right through.
  "Off you go now dear. If need be close your eyes when you get up close." Molly Wesley said while giving me a kind and gentle smile.
  "Thank for the advice." I say before walking up before the walls. I gulped trying to calm my racing heart that was fighting my natural instinct that says I can't go through walls. I took a deep breath before jogging towards the wall closing my eyes at the last minute hoping not to crash instead I felt something tingly go past me as I opened my eyes to see the pristine red and black train, steam wafting out of its openings.
  "I guess we made it just on time." I think as I slowly walk up to where Harry is standing in shock of the train.
  "You ready for this?" I say as my body begins to fill with excitement.
  "No, you?" He says back at me.
  "Never in my life." I comment back before allowing one of the train workers to grab my belongings and ushered us onto the train. We had found empty compartment and began our trip to Hogwarts.
  "Excuse me, do you mind?" Said a voice at the door. We turn to see Ron standing there looking inside at us.
  "Everywhere else is full." He explained to us as he held the door opened.
  "Not at all." Harry and I say in unison.
  Ron had scrunched his nose at that before quickly taking a seat a little bit away from me before re-introducing himself.
  "I'm Ron by the way. Ron Wesley."
  "I'm Harry. Harry Potter."
  "I'm Sarah Summerwood but you can call me Scarlett." I commented knowing the boy probably won't comprehend it after hear whom Harry was.
  His face fell into a look of shock as he stared at us both.
  "So, so it's true. I mean do you really have the, the..." Ron said nearly in a whisper.
  "The what?" Harry and I say together once again.
  Ron quickly shook his head before leaning in a bit closer.
  "The scare." He whispered as if it was nearly a taboo subject.
  "Oh. Yeah." Harry said before lifting his hair from out of his face.
  "Wicked!" Ron said staring at him.
  I act confused as I looked between the two.
  "Can someone fill me in on what's the big deal with his scar?" I say frustrated about bit from being ignored.
  Ron stares at me in shock as if I had grown another head.
  "How do you not know?!" He exclaimed staring at me.
  "I wasn't raised knowing all this magic stuff so I don't know a lot unless it's in the books we needed for class this year. I've already began looking over them." I commented as bit annoyed at the child in front of me talking as if a had been living under a rock.
  "I forgot how dramatic Ron is before he grows up a bit." I think as I slowly began to wish I just went with it instead of pretending I didn't know what it was about.
  I then sat there for 45 straight minutes listening to Ron rant about you know who and Harry before the trolley finally came by.
  "Anything off the trolley, dears?" The elder lady asked as we all looked up.
  "No thanks. I'm all set." Ron said lift up his poor excuse for what i believed was a sandwich.
  Harry looked for a moment before fishing into his pockets and pulling out a handful a galleons.
  "We'll take the lot." He said as he show the money.
  Ron stared in shock as the lady began giving us all the candy.
  "How are we supposed to eat all of this?" I think as she finally put don't what was left of the candy and walked away.
  As Harry and Ron continued to eat there candy I had pull out a magically charmed lunch box and cup to keep my food warm and drink cold.
  "What are you eating?" I heard Ron say with a mouth full.
  I smile and looked over at him as I lift the lid off my food to show a beef and vegetable stew my mother and I had made before we had left home that morning.
  I saw his intense stare at my food as I began to eat it without speaking.
  Soon he gone back to talking with Harry about the mystery bean flavored beans and all the weird flavors they had.
  Harry picked up what looked like a pentagon looking box that was neatly decorated.
  "These aren't real frogs are they?" Harry asked concerned.
  "It's just a spell. Besides the cards are what you want." Ron says facing towards Harry.
  "Can you still eat them though?" I asked with food still in my mouth, quite curious as no fanfiction had ever said anything about someone eating the said frogs.
  "Yes, they are still chocolate." Ron replied, quite confused on me asking.
  "Would you like to try one with me,  Scarlett?" Harry asked, handing me another box.
  I cautiously opened the box with Harry doing the same. The frogs then made a sound before trying to jump away. i caught mine, but unlucky, Harry's went out the window.
  "Oh, that's rotten luck. They've only got one good jump in them to begin with." Ron said as he looked at Harry.
  "What am I in the middle of some kind of bromance? Why am I always being ignored?" I internally cry as i stare down at the charmed frog like chocolate.
  "I can't do it. Ron, please take this from me." I say as he willing grabs the candy frog before popping it into his mouth whole.
  I crinkled my mose in disgust as he began chewing away.
  "I got Dumbledore!" Harry exclaimed as he looked down at his card. I looked closely at mine, noticing the same. I frowned, staring at the miniature man in the card.
  "There's was a fan theory that these were the reason he was able to get intell so fast." I think telling Harry i did as well.
  "I got about 6 of him." Ron says proudly.
  "Hey, he's gone." Harry said after looking back down from the short conversation we had just had.
  "Well, you can't expect him to hang around all day, can you?" Ron said with another mouthful food in his mouth.
  Harry then looked down at the rat sitting on Ron's lap, its head stuck in a box.
  "This is Scabbers, by the way. Pathetic, isn't he?" Ron said, taking notice as to what Harry was looking at.
  "Just a little bit." Harry says, not trying to be rude.
  "Absolutely." I say, smirking down at the traitorous little shit.
  "Fred gave me a spell that turns him yellow, wanna see?" Ron asks us.
  "Yeah." Harry and I say once again at the same time.
  "You two need to quit doing that. You sound like Fred and George." Ron says before focusing back on his rat.
  He grabbed his wand and cleared his throat before speaking.
  "Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville lost one." A girl with bushy hair asked, looking into our compartment.
  "No." Ron replied.
  "Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then."
  "Yes! Hermione put him in his place." I think watching the scene unfold.
  Ron's so-called spell was unsuccessful, but I hope it hurt that bastard as a good bit.
  "Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good, is it?" Hermione commented after the spell did nothing.
  Ron looked over at Harry as Hermione continued on her rant over spells. She then pulled out her wand before sitting beside me and pointing it at Harry's face.
  "Oculus Reparo." Harry's glasses were soon fixed after the spell was casted.
  "You call that a simple spell. Honey, yer a genius." I say, staring at what happened.
  All of a sudden, Ron and Harry's eyes were all on me.
  "What?" I said, staring back.
  "Your voice just changed. What happened?" Ron asked, staring at me.
  My blood ran cold.
  "Shit, I thought I got my accent under control years ago!" I scream internally. Every since I could speak, it had seemed that my southern accent from nowhere Mississippi had followed me to my new life. Thankfully , I came up with a decent joke about this.
  "Oh, that. Back when I was little, I had started using it. My mother joked about how I might as well have popped out with some grain and a bottle of milk on my own." I giggled a little.
  "I've learned to hide it over the last few years, but when I get excited or not so focused, it sometimes comes out." I explained to them.
  "Holy cricket! You're Harry Potter!" Hermione said as she had been staring at Harry through my whole speech.
  "I'm Hermione Granger." She introduced slowly, looking at Rong before furrowing her brows and then looking at me.
  "And you two are..."
  "I'm Ron Wesley." He said his mouth full of candy once again.
  "Pleasure." Hermione countered as nice as I think she was willing to go before looking at me.
  "I'm Sarah Summerwood, but just like these two, you can call me Scarlett." I say slowly, closing the top part of my lunch box before opening the bottom, which had chilled jiggly squares.
  "Very nice to meet you. Uh, what are those?" Hermione asked, looking down at my bowl.
  "I'm glad you asked. These are all naturally made marshmallows using marshmallow root." I explained, getting confused looks from everyone. I sigh quickly, going into detail about how muggle foods and treats have way too much processed ingredients and how it is very made for us to eat it. I then explained the origin of marshmallows and their health properties if made with the original ingredient.
  "Huh, I've never thought of it like that." Hermione says as she thinks over my deep explanation.
  "Exactly. Don't get me wrong I'd enjoy muggle food on a daily if I wasn't afraid of ruining my health. So I stick with remaking their foods either the original way of with more healthy options." I concluded my monolog.
"You three better change into your robes. I expect we will be arriving soon." Hermione says as she quickly leaves. She quickly turns back and looks at Ron.
  "You've got dirt on your nose, by the way. Did you know? Just there." She said point at were it would be if she were Ron before running along. Ron tride wiping his nose before we all quickly got up to find somewhere to change.
  "Holy shit we're almost there!" I internally fangirl before quickly getting dressed.
