A Hogwarts Tale: Jake's Story

This is my first fan fiction so please don't chew me up and spit me out.

The first four chapters are mainly backstory so if you don't like it please read

until chapter 5 before you decide on your opinion.

Chapter 1

A Very Special Birthday

"Happy Birthday!" The family screamed in excitement. Today was Jake's birthday,

not just any birthday, his 11th birthday. Today was the day he would finally get

his letter to hogwarts.

After having a 2 brothers and a sister go to hogwarts he has been waiting for

this day for a long time. His oldest brother Jobe and him had a lot in common.

For instance they shared a birthday. Today was the day Jobe turned 17 and he

could finally use magic outside of hogwarts. As soon as he woke up this morning

he took out his wand and started flicking his wand back and fourth, making all

sorts of things fly in all sorts of directions. The one thing Jobe had been

looking forward too was his final year at hogwarts.

The next oldest in his family was his sister Shannon. She was a fourth year and

she was a very bright girl and was very popular in school, or so she says. She

always treated her younger brother like a little kid, and Jake was always ticked

off at her for it. This year would be different he was finally going to hogwarts

and he can't be treated like a little kid anymore.

Finally the next oldest was his other brother Joshua. Josh was a third year

hogwarts student. Him and Jake always got along but since he started going to

school he seemed distant. Always trying to be independent from his kid brother

even though he was only a few years older then him.

Either way Jake loved his family and he could never want anyone to change.

The one odd thing is Jake has heard that most relatives that go to hogwarts are

always in the same house.

The potter family was always in gryffindor, the changs in ravenclaw, and the

Malfoys in slytherin. But his family was different. His older brothers and

Shannon were all in different houses. Shannon was in hufflepuff, Jobe was in

slytherin and Josh was in gryffindor. Either was as Jake and Jobe were about to

blow out there candles 4 letters fell through the mail slot each with that

unforgettable hogwarts seal.

Jake stared in amazement at the letters laying of the floor before anyone even

had a chance to look back from the floor Jake had blown out all the candles and

had started fumbling through the letters looking for the one with his name.

"Aha! I got it! I got it!" he yelled with more excitement than he ever had in

his entire life. Even more than when he got his bike for his birthday a few

years ago.

"Can I open it?"

"Well of course you can hurry hurry." His mother sensed his excitement and

didn't want to ruin it.

Congratulations you have been accepted to hogwarts school of witchcraft and

wizadry were the first words Jake read. After that nothing else mattered. He was

going and he was gonna become a wizard. How could anything be better than this.

So his siblings all came up to get there letters all congratulating their

younger brother while they picked up there letters.

"Oh my god guess what!" Jobe announced loudly. Kinda a piercing loud. "I got a

prefect badge!" He held it up his hand was basically shaking.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh I'm so proud of you!" their mother screamed at the top of her

lungs while running toward her son with so much excitement hugging him in a very

tight embrace.

"Wow great job Jobe" Shannon was happy for her brother. Jake was amazed not only

was he going to hogwarts but his brother was a prefect. Now that's cool.
