My name is Sam and im in high school, a Jr. to be exact. I live at home with my parents and cousin, Allison ( a.k.a Alli ) whom they adopted when I was only six. Her parents died when she was nine we've been unseperable like sisters since.
It was just an ordinary day and i was eating lunch with my friends in the crowded lunch room. I didn't take well to being in crowded areas so i ate quickly and headed over to the library. On my way there i saw a tall man dressed in what looked like a robe. He had a long white beard and a tall pointed hat.
He stopped me mid-step and said, "You are Samantha, correct?" I nodded. "Well my name is Albus Dumbledore." He stated.
What a dumb name, it sounds familiar some how. I thought to myself.
"I am here to let you know that you are excepted to Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry."
I just stared at him. Hogwarts? As in the Harry Potter stories? Who is this joker and whats he playing at?
"Certain events have been taken into account and you are now accepted to Hogwarts" He said again.
"Ok if you are really Dumbledore and I am a witch why didnt i get my letter when i was 11, whats the point of going to school now. It would be my last year." I asked him.
"Well you recieved your letter but your parents hid it from you. They didnt want you to go to Hogwarts. But now that you are 17 in the wizarding world you are able to make your own decisions." He told me.
"Ok but how would I go to school if im 17. I'd graduate this year." I stated.
"Ah, that may be true, but i have a few things for you to help with that." He told me then he held out his hand. There in his hand he held two time turners and a potion of some kind.
"What am i supposed to do with these?" I asked.
"Well this potion is a serim that will bring your appearance back to your desired age. As for the time turners, you will be aloud to go back in time to the desired point."
"So you want me to drink the potion until i look 11 then set the time turner to 6 years into the past!?" I said.
"Exactly."
"Well, what am I supposed to use the other time turner for?" I wondered.
"The second time turner and remaining potion is meant for Allison of course," he smiled, "her acceptance letter was hidden as well."
"But Alli is three years older than me, when we go back will she be a first year as well?"
"Time is a continuous construct. You will be going back six years, where as Allison will be traveling nine," he explained.
What the heck is that suppossed to mean?
He stared down at me noticing my confusion.
"When you arrive for your first year at Hogwarts, Allison will have already completed her first three years."
Turning away he smiled, leaving with me the two time turners and the potion bottle.
The rest of the day flew by in a blur, before I knew it I was walking up to Alli's Volkswagen Bug.
How am I going to explain everything to her? Will she think I'm barking mad? Well it's now or never I suppose.
