Chapter 1

"Hey Emily will you be a dear and go get the?" asked Aunt Bella to Emily who was only eleven and would be started her next year at Britain academy for girls with her two best friends Lauren Coyne and Lily Evans. Emily had dark short blown hair and hazel eyes. Her friend Lauren had blonde hair and she also had hazel eyes like Emily. And Emily's last best friend Lily had thick red hair and bright green eyes.

Emily walked to the door where the mail was laying below the door slut. She picked up the mail to see a letter address to her. 'Who would be sending me a letter?' she thought to herself.

She brought the rest of the mail to her aunt than she proceeded to open her letter.

"What do you got there?" asked her Uncle Joseph coming into the room and kissing his wife on the cheek.

"Don't know until I open it." said Emily pulling out the parchment inside it read:

(A.N. didn't make this part up got it from the first book so don't sue me.)

HOGWARTS SCHOOL

Headmaster: ALBUS DUMBLEDORE

later than July 31

"Wow!" said Emily out loud.

"It's about time it gets here." Said uncle Joseph behind Emily reading the parchment above her.

"Wait you knew I would get a letter from Hogwarts?" asked Emily.

"Well Bella I think it's about time we tell her." Said Joseph. Bella nodded her head in agreement. "Well we're not really your aunt and uncle we've adopted you. Dumbledore thought it was best we raise you as our own kin."

"Why, who am I really?" asked Emily.

"Well your mother was a witch but your father wasn't he was human." Said Joseph. "He didn't like all that witchcraft nonsense was a religious man he was. He married a witch before that too fancy that… sorry getting off topic well when he found what your mother was he wanted nothing to do with her or you for that matter. He thought he was curse having married another witch before that he left the country to go somewhere else your mother died after a week of having you from a sickness she got. It was lucky you didn't get it too."

"So who was my father and do I have any other brothers or sisters from his first wife?" asked Emily thinking 'Wow and I just thought I was curse when I was able to talk to cats. Now I know I'm something, I think.'

"Yes you have another sibling but see this is the reason we took you in because we were afraid that he might try and contact you." Said Joseph.

"Well what's wrong with that who is he?" asked Emily wishing they'd give her a straight answer soon.

"Well he's a dark wizard he's getting up there in power too." Said Joseph.

"Who is he already!" exclaimed Emily who was running out of patience.

"Um Tom Riddle that was your fathers name too." Said Joseph. "Promise me you won't tell anyone."

"Why?" asked Emily confused? 'What could it hurt?'

"Just don't tell can you promise me that?" asked Joseph.

"I guess." Said Emily. "How come you never told me before and how come you pretended to be my aunt and uncle?"

"Dumbledore told us to make you life good and not troubled. He was afraid you get hurt somehow on knowing the truth he wanted us to wait until you got your letter to go to Hogwarts." Said Bella.

"So I get to go off and learn magic and not have to got to the Britain academy for girls?" asked Emily excitedly.

"Yep." Said Bella heaving a sign of relief she had thought this conversation would have gone all badly but she was wrong and grateful too.

"Wait until I tell Lily and Lauren won't they be happy for me, but wait a minute I won't ever see them again." Said Emily sadly.

"Actually you can't tell Lily but don't worry about Lauren she's going with you too her parents are both witch and wizard." Said Joseph.

"But what about Lily I tell her everything and Lauren too." Said Emily.

"I'm sorry dear you just can't tell Lily it's against our law to tell muggles what we are." Said Bella getting worried maybe this won't go as good as before.

"What's muggle?" asked Emily.

"It means non magic folks." Said Joseph

"Oh but …" said Emily not finishing because there was a knock on their front door.

"I'll take you shopping for school supplies tomorrow and put the letter away before someone else see it." Said Bella going to the door. Emily stuffed the note in her pocket.

"I'm real sorry Em but you just can't tell if you want to talk about it with anyone you can talk to your friend Lauren." Said Joseph.

"Look who came over Emily, Lily." Said Bella walking back into the kitchen with Lily following behind.

"Hey Em want to go for a walk?" asked Lily.

"Sure." Said Emily "See you guys later." And Emily walked out of the house with her best friend Lily that she'll never see again starting September 1.

They walked in silence for a while until finally Emily broke the silence.

"Lily I won't be going to Britain academy for girls."

"Hey I was coming to tell you that I wasn't going to it either." Said Lily.

"Why where you going?" asked Emily

"Sorry Emily but I can't tell you. Where you going?" asked Lily

"I can't tell you either unless…" said Emily thinking 'Maybe she's going to Hogwarts too!'

Lily seemed to be thinking the same thing too.

'Oh I guess it can't hurt to ask and if she isn't I'm sure she doesn't even know what it's about.' Thought Lily than she voice the question "Are you going to Hogwarts?'

Emily had a big smile on her face. "Yep and you?"

"Yeah, this is so awesome." Said Lily happily than she had a look of sadness on her face. "What about Lauren though?" she asked.

"She's coming too." Said Emily "Aunt Bella and Uncle Joseph told me her parents are witch and wizard too."

"That's great!" exclaimed Lily "Wait how come she never told us before?"

"I don't know lets go ask her why she never told us." Said Emily and they quickly and happily walked to Lauren Coyne's house.

Lily knocked on the door once they arrived. Lauren answered the door.

"Hey guys what's up and it better not be another one of your pranks Emily like yesterday." Said Lauren. Emily smiled remembering the prank she pulled on Lauren yesterday. Lauren was just too gullible some days. Emily came over to her house yesterday and told her that there was a great big bear in her front yard and was trying to eat her. Where Emily had very carefully earlier that day laid a garbage bag over one of the bushes and put a few accessories to make it look like it had to beady black eyes, ears and a mouth.. Lauren screamed and fainted. Emily throw water on her than ran to the bear she had made and very magnificently pulled the bag off the bush and laughed. Lauren than chase Emily around the yard trying to murder her.

"No we've just came to ask you some questions." Said Lily.

"Okay come on in than." Said Lauren to her friends.

Once they where in the kitchen Lauren poured them a glass of lemonade.

"Where's your parents at?" asked Lily.

"Out in the back yard relaxing." Said Lauren.

"Good." Said Emily.

"Emily now what do you have plan that it's good that their not around?" asked Lauren accusingly.

"I feel hurt that you would think I'm up to something." Said Emily with a fake hurt tone in her voice.

"Oh come on Emily you're always up to something." Said Lauren.

"Yeah I guess you're right I am normally up to something." Said Emily. "Will you do the honors Lily?"

"Nay you're having fun." Said Lily.

"Ok. So Lauren how come you never told us you were a witch?" asked Emily.

"Emily you told Lily?" asked Lauren scared.

"Wait you knew I was a witch too and you never told me?" asked Emily feeling hurt that her best friend wouldn't even tell her that she was a witch.

"I just found out today my parents finally told me and I didn't tell you guys because I wasn't allowed." Said Lauren "And Lily not to know."

"But Lily's a witch too." Said Emily.

"Really?" asked Lauren

"Yeah I got my letter this s'morning." Said Lily.

"That's so cool we're all gonna become witches." Said Lauren.

"Dude just think of all the cool pranks we could do with magic." Said Emily excitedly.

"Em you're not going to get us thrown out of Hogwarts I refuse to do any pranks with and especially since you nearly got us kicked out of Toklen school." Said Lauren

"Em I'm gonna have to agree with Lauren on this." Said Lily.

"Ahh they wouldn't have kicked us out anyways we were top of our grade." Said Emily. "And plus it won't be fun to do pranks on my own."

"Emily you never know you might meet some people at Hogwarts who like pranks as much as you do." Said Lauren.

"But you guys are my best friends." Said Emily.

"Oh no more pranks for me plus my parents told me magic is hard to learn I'll need to study harder than what I did in grade school." Said Lauren.

"Oh you guys are no fun." Said Emily.

"Ahh you'll live." Said Lily

"Fine, maybe I'll cool off a bit." Said Emily

"Good for you Em." Said Lily.

They continued the rest of the day just hanging out at Lauren's house talking about what Hogwarts was going to be like and how the teacher we're going to be like and so forth. Emily keeps her promise and didn't tell her best friends about her brother, but she hated keeping a secret from them.
