A/N: Okay this is my first Harry Potter fan fic and it takes place about 3 years after the epilogue and let's just say I have been kind of depressed since the movies ended so let the chapter begin. Oh and sorry if I get some of the names wrong.

Chapter 1: I met the legend

I couldn't sleep, the excitement of going to Petersons for my sixth year and my seeing my friends.

"And getting away from my stupid muggle family." The voice said

"Shut up!" I thought

I got up from bed and looked around wondering what I could do. I had already spent 2 weeks packing and unpacking just to make sure I had enough robes and regular clothes to last the year. Yesterday I spent the day gathering my books and making sure my new kitten, Ella, had enough food. I gave a moment of silence for my pet hamster, Yellow, who had died in a spell gone wrong close to the end of the school year.

I will never let Michael borrow my pet for a spell ever again.

After a few minutes of standing in my room I decided to head downstairs and drink some warm milk and read. I entered the kitchen and took the milk carton out of the fridge and placed it on the granite counter top. I reached above and got my favorite mug out. It was a copy of Starry Night by Vincent Van Gough. I poured the milk and added some vanilla flavoring and put it in the microwave for 2 minutes. I sat on the counter top when all of a sudden I heard a tapping noise coming from the patio door. I walked over to the door and saw a white and brown bird caring something and I soon realized that it was from Petersons. The school had stopped using owls since a mother freaked out and had a heart attack when she came downstairs to find twenty owls in the living room. I opened the door and quickly grabbed the letter and shut it just before the bird could come in. I walked over towards a drawer and pulled out a pair of scissors when I noticed that the letter had wax seal instead of it needing to be cut open. I went to the island table and sat down on a chair. I exhaled and hoped it was good news or if it was even addressed to me since my brother John had just turned 11 and was hoping to get into Petersons. He sadly had not figured out that I was adopted my magical powers had come from my mother or father maybe even both. I popped the seal and took out the letter and began to read the long hand written letter.

Dear Lucy Cartridge,

We are pleased to tell you that you have been transferred to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In ten minutes after you have received this letter a team of Arouxs will arrive at your home to take you to there.

Sincerely,

Minearva Mogonagol

I was in shock. I am being transferred to Hogwarts! That school was the most famous school in the entire world. It won the wizard tournament and a battle was held there in the '90s! And not to mention the famous Harry Potter went there, the man who took down Voldemort. I soon realized I needed to wake up my mom and dad so I ran up the stairs not caring if I woke up my 13 year old sister Jenny. I came to my parents room and threw open the door and jumped on their bed as if I was 10 years old again.

"Onf" Dad said "John what have we told you about jumping on our bed at 2:30 in the morning."

"It's not John, dad." I said

"Lucy?" Mom said

"Listen mom I have just been transferred to a new school and they are going to be here in like 5 minutes and I needed to say goodbye before I left."

"They're coming for you now?" Dad said

"Dad it's a school in England there is a huge time difference." I stated

"Oh sweetheart I'll get up and stay with you till they come." Mom said

My mother got up and put on a red fluffy robe. She went into the master bathroom and brushed her hair so it wouldn't look like its normal haystack hair when she gets up in the morning. As she went down stairs to the living room I walked towards my room and begun to bring everything downstairs. Then I realized I needed to get Ella into her cat carrier. I went into my room only to realize she wasn't in there. I started to panic when I heard a fire cracking to life then die away then I knew that they were here. I went to the next bedroom where John slept and I saw him with his arm around a black and white mass. I walked closer and gently moved his arm so I could get Ella when his eyes opened. They were a hazel color and looked sad.

"What are you doing?" He asked

"I need to get Ella from you."

"Why?"

"I'm being transferred to a new school and I need to go now." I said

"Okay." He said

He released the kitten, who had already started to complain by meowing. I lifted her up and walked her to my room where I had left the carrier and put the kitten in there along with a few toys and cat treats. I put on my coat and grabbed the carrier but I took one last look around my room like I always do when I leave to go to school. I looked at my white and gold flag that I won in quitidge for my house. I moved my gaze to the picture on my dresser. It was me 2 years ago when I was 14 with my friend Allie and Kate behind us was the statue of liberty we went there during a school field trip. I realized it was 10 minutes after they said they were coming. I ran down the stairs saying sorry I was so late. I zipped up my jacket and looked up there were 3 people in the room my mom and 2 men. One had orange red hair and was very skinny and the other had dark hair with light green eyes. He started to rub his temples and the other person started to look worried.

"Hello, Lucy my name is Ron Weasly and I will be helping to escort you to the train stop 9 3/4." He said

"His name sounds familiar. Where have I heard it before? Oh I'll look it up later."

"And I am Harry Potter." The dark haired one said

I quickly looked up and there just above his left eyebrow was a lightning shaped scar.

Now him I have no need to look up his name.
