This a new series I decided to start since my other story really had no one who liked it.

I recently watched Harry Potter and I got inspired.

Basically this story is going to start out the same as Harry Potter initially but then I am going to stray from the original once we meet the main characters. I will keep the some characters in Harry Potter but then others I will replace.

They start out all around 11-12 years old.

QUESTION: After I set up the story would anyone oppose to have their life fast forward till like they are 16?

CHAPTER ONE

Kate Beckett has grew up a not so easy life. Her mother and father were murdered when she was just a baby. Many do not know how she survived with just a scar to tell the tale. The man who killed her parents was the most dreaded thing in the Wizard world. The scar he left was in the shape of a lighting bolt, few ever see the scar since it's located where her bangs fall. Kate didn't know about the magic in the world that existed. Since her parents were taken from her she had jumped foster to foster home, since her parents really had no family.

Kate was abruptly woken up by someone hitting a pan a little too obnoxiously. Her hands covered her ears and she heard a muffled, "WAKE UP! GET YOUR LAZY BUTTS UP." She sighed she rolled out of bed. Kate headed downstairs with the other children to the meal hall where they were served breakfast. Breakfast was a stretch on what to call it, it was reheated slump of meat and other assortment of foods with some stale bread on the side, delicious. .

Everyone was seated at the table Kate then began to pick at her food when their foster mother walked in carrying a single letter.

"Katherine this came for you."

She looked up seeing the letter in her hand. She has never received mail in her life. Kate walked up to her and slowly and grabbed the letter. Beckett sat back in her chair she shoved the letter into her pocket and continued to pick at the "food" on her plate. All eyes were on her as she ate, all curious to what the letter said. Kate didn't look up feeling the stares from the others.

"Have y'all never seen a letter before?" Their foster mothered hollered. That got everyone looking back at their own plates. "That's what I thought." She then began to hangout assignment for the day.

Later that night when they all returned to the sleeping room after a long day of work. When Kate was sure everyone was asleep she pulled out the letter. She sat in the moonlight and got her first real glance at the letter.

No one knew where she lived so that piqued her interest to where this letter came from.

She flipped the letter over and examined the odd seal. There was no return address, another odd aspect about this mysterious letter. She glanced around to make sure no unwanted eyes were watching. She opened the letter and it read:

Dear Ms. Beckett,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.

Term begins on 1 September. We await your owl by no later than 31 July.

Yours sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall

Deputy Headmistress

Her hands started to sweat. 'What does all of this mean'. She reread the letter and she was nothing but puzzled. Witchcraft? Wizardry? What was this about an owl? She looked at the second page and there was a uniform list and other supplies. This was no back to school list it had things like a wand, cauldron, and a spell book. Was this some sick joke she wondered. She knows no one who would pull a joke on her. She decided that the letter was some weird occurance and put it under her mattress where no one else would find it.

September 1st

On a cool September morning Kate got up pretty early and took a trip to the library to try and find some of the books that were on the list to buy. She hasn't stopped thinking about that letter since the day she got it. Kate was a regular to her public library on her weekends off that's where she spent most of her time. She went to one of the computers and began looking up the first book. When she has reached the end of the list none of the books came up. Kate wondered how out of all of those books none of them showed up in the search engine. After a while of thinking she felt a strange presence like someone was watching her. Kate abruptly looked up and saw a strange man staring at her then went back to his book. Kate felt uneasy with this but she rolled her eyes and began typing on the computer trying to find more information about this Hogwarts place.

Then the man approached Kate and took a seat near her.

"Hello Kate my name is Roy Montgomery." He held out a hand for her to shake.

Kate looked at him wearily. "How do you know who I am?" She said eyeing his extended hand.

Roy lowered his hand he should have known she would be a tough one. "I knew your parents Kate. I went to school with them, now I am here to tell you about Hogwarts."

Kate perked up with that. "Hogwarts?" She shouted a little too loud that the librarian had to shush them, "How do you know about Hogwarts?" Now she was ready to listen.

"Well I was sent to give you a letter but your foster parent turned me away insisting I can not speak to you, but I have my ways and I knew you would be here."

THANKS FOR READING.
