“Where are they?” She chirped as the short girl jumped up in order to get a better vantage point. These people were too tall for her, seriously. She was going to have to fix that. With careful footing she pressed her trolly against a wall and began to climb up the wobbly moving contraption. She was going to see her friends. Even if she had to traverse the mountain of things to do so.
“SAMMY? ACE?” She called loudly as she continued to climb onto the trolly. Having learned how to get to Platform 9 3/4 from a kind old wizard, Carl pushed his trolley through the barrier, his eyes shut tight, and soon found himself blinking at the Hogwarts Express. Hey, he just ran through a wall! And he was about to take a train to a school of magic! It was all so awesome.
Looking around for friends he had made during the summer, he wheeled the trolley down the platform. He planned to have a chat with his friends before grabbing a good seat. However, a loud voice nearby caught his attention. Carl wandered over to the girl climbing onto her trolley and said, "Hello! Are you looking for somebody? I could help you if you want." He was not much taller than her, but if he also climbed onto his trolley, he might be able to see above all the others.
