19 Years After Hogwarts Wizarding War - London Orphanage and Boarding School - 7:00 PM

The afternoon was gloomy and cold.

Sat in an old street in London was an old orphanage.

Living in the orphanage was a young eleven year old girl.

She was different among the other children.

She often dreamt of leaving the orphanage, and flying away to a place more beautiful.

It was mail day at the orphanage, which was also a boarding school.

Orphans didn't usually get mail, because of having no family to send it. But the girl was looked upon in astonishment by the others when her name was called.

"Jacqui Novae!" The teacher repeated.

Jacqui stepped up to her, and took the two envelopes.

One of the envelopes said, "Open second."

She sat down on her bed and opened the one that was meant to be open first.

The letter read:

To Jacqui Novae,

You have been chosen to become a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

To get your supplies, please go to Diagon Alley through

The Leaky Cauldron.

Books: A Beginners Guide To Magic, Beginners Transfiguration, Simple Defense Spells, and A Guide To Potion Brewing.

You will also need a wand, the most suggested Wand Maker is Ollivanders, but that is yours to decide.

You will need robes, which you can get from one of the tailors.

Students may also get an Owl, Cat or Toad to bring with them.

Lastly, school starts on the 1st of September, and the train Hogwarts Express will be boarded at eleven o'clock that morning, on Platform

9 & 3/4.

Sincerely,

Head Master of

Hogwarts,

Minerva McGonagall

Jacqui's eyes widened.

The Leaky Cauldron was a pub she saw in the corner of one of the streets, that the adults kept saying was a Florist no one went inside.

It could've been a trick, but everything seemed so real, and Jacqui would do anything to get away from this wretched place.

Then she opened the second envelope.

Inside was a tiny sack that appeared empty and another letter.

It said:

Use this well.

Jacqui picked up the sack and put her hand inside.

It was like putting her hand into a huge endless pantry, it was so much bigger on the inside.

She reached further, and felt a cold hard object.

She grabbed it, and pulled it out.

It was a gold coin with a large 'G' on the front. On the back was what looked like a witch's hat.

She put her hand back in the sack, and felt many more coins inside.

This must've been foreign currency, for it wasn't any she had seen.

She looked around at the many other kids going to bed.

Then she packed her suitcase.

And the next day, she was gone.
