Silvia glanced outside the train window. They had been on the train for some time now, and it was beginning to get dark out. The train's lights were already on. She turned back to face her companions. "We should be almost to Hogwarts," she said with a smile, knowing the excitement and increasing anticipation the two first years would be feeling right now.

Suddenly, the lights in their compartment flicked off, and then back on. "That's odd," said Silvia. "I wonder what caused it." Then the lights flicked off and on again, and continued to do so. That wasn't normal, and it wasn't like there was any storm or anything else to interfere with the electricity. "I wonder if there is a malfunction with the train." Or maybe someone was just playing a prank? It was then that she noticed the train seemed to be slowing down as well. "We shouldn't be there just yet, unless I'm not estimating correctly." She looked out the window again but didn't see anything. So what was wrong with the lights and why were they slowing down?
