Chapter One: Tragedy and Last Words

by Anime-LoZ-Skittles

Kianena' POV

***

It all began in our simple cabin, waiting for Gramps to come home. My sister's eyes flashed to mine.

"What is it, Allie? What did you see?"

"They've killed him. Gramps is dead. They're coming for us next." she said with awful finality.

I gasped, but did not panic. I was prepared. I swept to the closet and grabbed the bulging backpack that held all the essentials to last my sister and me the week. I prayed that we would get to Mr. Flitwick's before they caught us.

"Come on, Allie. We must go," I grabbed her hand and threw my cloak over my shoulders. Allemae did the same. I yanked back the door and pushed her out. Shutting the door behind me, I gave one last forlorn look at the house before dashing after my sister.

"There it is!" Allemae pointed to a small, green house on top of the hill that had just came into sight.

"Finally!" I fired another hex behind me at our pursuers. "I can't hold out much longer!"

Just then, we reached the wards surrounding the house. The wizards chasing us ran comically into the barrier. If we weren't so tired and scared we would have laughed. As it was, we walked up to the door and knocked. A short, worried Professor Flitwick answered.

"Thank God, you've made it!" he ushered us in and shut the door. "I was beginning to worry. I got this message from your grandfather just before he died." he showed us a battered piece of parchment.

It read:

My hana,

I am sorry to leave you so early. Just remember that I am watching over you. Since you are staying with Mr. Flitwick, you will be going to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. They are odd circumstances, but Prof. McGonagall has assured me that you will be welcome there. In any case, I was planning on sending you two there this year. Mind your manners and respect Mr. Flitwick and all you professors. Kianena, stay out of trouble. Allemea, don't listen to everything your sister says. Be good little hana, I love you.

Grandpa Zephyr.

I stared at the letter, my grandfather's last words, for a few more seconds, then broke down and cried.

A/N:

Dang, that was depressing…. Just so you all know, Cici and I will be co-writing this fic. Therefore, the chapter's will be alternating POVs, as well as authors, depending on who is writing it. REVIEWS!!!! That's what we want!!!! Thanks for reading!!!!
