Chapter 1

Gone in the Wind

DISCLAIMER: If I owned Harry Potter the story would have gone like this


I woke up that morning feeling refreshed.

Which was unusual because I mostly had nightmares. I heard a ringing from downstairs.

It's probably the floo. I thought as I laid back down thinking Layla, my sister or dad would get it.

Of course Layla's head just happened to pop in at that moment. "It's mum," she said. I sat my head up to look at her. "Get out of bed and come talk to her, you know how she is."

Layla said. Rolling her and mom didn't agree on many things . . . okay everything.

Mom says no, Layla will say yes, dad and me were mostly the Peacekeepers in the house, which was weird because we weren't peaceful people.

Our household was quite funny, if you were not from the family. "I'm coming.' I said sliding out of bed, and walking-running, to the door. My mother wasn't the waiting type.


As I walked into the kitchen, Layla right behind me, I walked over to the fireplace.

My mother's face was staring up at me.

"Darling, I miss you so much." My mother said, "I miss you too, mother. When are you coming home?" I asked her "When the Russians let me." My mother, Katherine, was a spell inventor.

Right now she was in Russia studying the magical properties of ice in Oymyakon, a little village, where it got a lot colder then 32 F "Mum I -"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

I looked back at Layla.

She was jumping up and down, with a grin the size of the empire state building on her face.

She was talking a mile a minute. I caught one word out of her entire sentence. "Hogwarts!"

"Hogwarts?' I asked looking at my mother. "Read your letter." She said smiling, and looking quite amused. "Letters from HOGWARTS!" Layla said shoving the evolope at me. "Calm down already!" I snapped at Layla.

She glared at me and stuck her tongue out at me. She looked like an angry kitten.

You know the look where your not sure weather to laugh or be afraid. Let's say I laughed. I looked at the evelope that said

Then I began to open up my letter and it stated:

That was the end of the letter

Okay, any other kid, muggle alike, would have probably started jumping up an down.

I am not any other kid. The first words out of my mouth was " I can't take Dragon."

Dragon was my dog, and mother's test subject.

"we can get you an owl, when we go to Diagon Alley." My father said

"Yes , Yes, "my mother's voice said "Why don't you and Layla go swimming? We will celebate later."

My father nodded agreeing with her. Layla raced up stairs, I quickly followed.


Author's Note

Hi, and welcome to the first chapter of M,L & the S'S

This is not a parody at least it's not in my head. Me and Layla are going to be mixing it up a little and hopefully this will be a little funny.

Hey, Mika here. I hope you ej
