All through the station, Lucy trailed behind her parents, walking at a slower pace but always keeping them in sight. She couldn't believe they were doing this to her. They were actually trying to ship her off to an unknown school in an unknown location with people they've never met, all alone.

They were looking for Platform 9 3/4. It sounded suspicious. But Lucy's parents were sure that there was some trick to getting onto it, just like how they got to shops. She had to admit that was amazing and that it worked and was real...but this was an ordinary train station. People weren't rushing about in funny looking clothes. They were in suits with briefcases or sweats with luggage. There were people in uniform at ticket counters and escorting those who were from out of town. Besides all that, they'd been here before. They'd taken a train in and out of this very station long before some weirdo had come to their house talking about how she was a witch and there was no Platform 9 3/4 there.

Lucy slumped against the wall as she watched her parents pace up and down between Platforms 9 and 10, and even as they expanded their search to Platforms 8 and 11, whispering to each other and referring to the ticket they hadn't let her hold herself. She, however, wasn't moving. She was too shy to ask someone in uniform and too afraid that it all wasn't even real. Even if she doubted it herself.
