I messed with the timeline. My favorite characters to write and read about are the Marauders, so I put them in this time peroid (2005) so Harry and his friends will not be born for a couple more years.This chapter is a bit shorter than what I would normally write. It may be a bit boring but the first 3 or 4 chapters is just the people gettng used to the wizarding world and learning about therepowers and introductions.READ AND REVIEW!

Chapter 1:

" Gage, finally your here." I jump up and down, then skip to my room. Knowing that he is following me. Gage Wallace is one of those guys that can't stop growing, well taller. He's around 6 feet and he towers over me. He has light blond hair but only his closest friends would know that because he is always dying it black. With light brown eyes it completes the picture. Gage being the nerd that he is insited we play risk tonight when I wanted to watch a movie.

" Gage why don't we rent something and watch some movie tonight instead of risk?" I ask with a smile.

" Sophie we all watched movies last time, and the time before that we played monopoly. Today we are playing risk." Gage adds in a final tone of voice.

" Fine but i'm being yellow." I tend to always need the last word.

As we enter my bedroom I walk over to my bed sit down and study my many book shelves. My room is the smallest room in the house and I love it that way. The walls and purple and yellow, with hardwood floors. There never is any room to move around mostly because of all my books and school workis everywhere onthe floor. All of my friends are nerds. We need to get the best in everything and always have to be perfect. If we aren't then the druggies might get some bad ideas, and that wouldn't be any fun. As Gage turns to get the phone he looks around, then turns and regards me questionally.

"You cleaned your room?" Gage asks with a smirk on his lips and the raise of an eyebrow. Sending his hair all over the place.

" No... why would I do that?" I ask while looking at thim as if he just grew another head. But then I look at the floor and notice that I can actually see the floor.And at my closet door I can see the floor, since when has there been floor? Where is the giant pile of clothing that normally resides there? Then it clicks in, my mom cleaned my room.

" My mom does this every so often. She gets bored of always looking in my room and seeing a mess so when it becomes to much she cleans it." with a sigh I add. " She probally changed all the drawers with my clothes in them too so I will now never be able to find any socks." Then I notice Gage is starring at me so I say the only thing that comes to mind. " Stop, starring at me."

It bothers me when people stare at me, I tend to think that they are judging me. I have short blonde hair which is either all in my eyes, or spiked up. I'm really tall around 5' 9". I have blue eyes. But I still can't stand when people look at me a certain way. I once heard that when people see me and if they imagined that I had longer hair then I would be a human barbie, I don't see the resemblance because I don't have a ken, and I wear my brothers clothes, or just two sizes to big.

Gage just sighs and grabs the phone and walks out of my room and down the hallway the hall is bascially just paint and floor. To stand in the doorway to the kitchen my mom and dad tend to redecorate everything once a year and this year the kitchens colour seems to be a deep red, mixed with some lighter shades. " Where are your parents and annoying siblings?"

" They all went out to hockey. Again, they said four people can come to play risk with us." I tilt my head to the side, did I just hear some noises from downstairs? I shake my head as I realise its just the dog playing around as I hear a yelp. As Gage starts dialing Nick Ramthuns phone number to invite him over to play the boardgame. I lean against the other side of the door frame, were those footsteps. I find myself wondering.Suddenly theres a rough pain going through my head, as I clutch my forehead. I manage to grab Gage and drag him and myself out of the doorway and down the hall into my room in time to just me missed by a flash of red light while I hear the words stupefy, I notice some people in masks and black cloacks before we run in my room and lock the door.

" Come help me get the screen out of the window." I say in a quick whisper. As I manage to lift up the blind and get one of the screens out of the window before anyone comes into my room. When i'm about to jump out I turn around and and hear someone say something like 'Alohomra' and the door of my room starts to open. But before much can happen a man with a long white beard and wearing robes of different colours making me believe he is rather old. Says something else and the door is locked again. I hear some noises coming from outside my door sounding rather like ' Dumbledores here' and some swearing and pounding on my door. The man grabs hold of my and Gages arms.

As we both try to strugle out of his grip, which is really rather tight for such an old man. He looks in both of our eyes and says " I'm not going to hurt either of you. I have news for you. It is time to leave Ms. Levine and Mr. Wallace." With that everything goes dark, and I can't breathe if I had more time to think about it i'm sure I would have been panicking. But within a second I find Gage and myself standing in a large ciricular room with weird objects all over the walls and a desk against one of the walls. The old man and a woman that looks to be in her late twentys with her hair in a high bun. Take some of the seats centered around a fireplace. The second thing I notice is my little sister.

" Dani!" I shout as I run to hug her. I hold her out at arm length distance, and notice her eyes are red like she was crying. When I can't hold it in anymore I engulf her in a giant hug. Danielle looks mostly like me. She has blonde hair only hers is kept longer, with green eyes. And a tiny figure that is tall for her age.

When I stop hugging Dani and thanking everyone I can think of in my head that she is safe, I turn my head towards the old man. Which is what Gage seems to have been doing the entire time. Gage has a look on his face that means he wants anwsers.

" Hello" he says with a nod of his head, and a gesture of his arms towards the chairs. We all sit down and then he continues. " I am Albus Dumbledore,and you are in Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardy."

As I shake my head still trying to get over the fact that there is a school called Hogwarts, I notice Gage seems to have caught on much faster. " Witchs and wizards. What do you mean by that?" When I look at his face I notice he looks like he has more questions but is trying to dampen his curiousty.

" Magic. Witchs and wizards use magic in our everyday lives." Albus Dumbledore tells us with a straight look on his face and a sparkle in his eyes which is starting to make me believe him. As I look at Dani to see how she is faring. I notice that there are silent tears runnign down her face. I protectively put my arm around her shoulders and give her a one arm hug.

" I believe them, Soph. It seems real, and like the truth. There is no other way to explain what happened." Danielle tells me in a scared whisper.

" What happened? Wait. Where is mum or dad. Where is Charlie?" I am now painicking and my voice has gone rather harsh. I turn to Dumbledore, he nods at me and says " I have to tell you something Sophie. It is not all good." With that I prepare my self for what he is going to say.
