The train slowed down and a ruckus of excited kids erupted through the train. The train stopped and the doors opened. Children pushed out of the train and a loud voice traveled over the sea of small boys and girls all wearing their new uniforms. "First years this way! All first years over here!" All the small boys and girls walked in the direction of the loud roar. A giant, double the size of an ordinary man, with long hair and beard stood smiling with a lantern in his big hand. "Everyone here? Great! Follow me!" The big man told about himself as the kids walked towards the black lake. His name was Hagrid he was half giant. The kids scrambled into the small boats, 3-4 in each. The boats sailed themselves over the lake and slowly the giant castle towered into the night sky. It was shining through the windows and all the kids starred in awe as they neared the hill with the school.
