AN: Hi, I'm so glad to see that you decided to visit my story. Unlike most of my other tries, this story actually has a plot, and I am already writing chapter 5 now. This means that the other chapters should be up quickly. This first chapter is very short, the others will be longer. Hope you enjoy!
Chapter 1
It was in the middle of the night when a soft knock on the door urged a relatively young mother to sneak outside, so as to not wake her children.
"Has she gotten her letter?" A male voice asked her, his face hidden behind long black hair and his robe.
"Yes." The woman answered. "She was accepted into Hogwarts."
"Good." The man said. "Then we will be able to get the plan into action. I hope that you know what is expected of you?" His voice took on a threating sound.
The woman nodded quickly. "Of course, of course. And I will make sure that she somehow knows it too."
"Then we will await the results. And don't forget that we have an insider in Hogwarts." With that last threat, the man disappeared without a sound, and the woman entered her house, shaking and tears threatening to fall. She curled up on the couch, and wonder above wonder fell asleep.
"Mom, what are you doing here? Why did you sleep on the couch?" Two girls were looking at their mother, who slowly woke from her deep sleep. The girls looked at each other and grinned, after which they jumped on their mother, who was immediately awake.
"No, girls, you are way too old and heavy for that right now. Please spare your mother." But the mother herself did not spare her two daughters, for she began her own tickling assault which she knew they couldn't resist. As soon as her two girls begged for mercy, she stoop up. "Maud, Maera, go take a shower. We are going to Diagon Alley today!""Yay!" The two girls shouted. They didn't go there very often, and especially not since the last year. The oldest girl, Maud, forced herself not to think about it, and raced behind her younger sister. A while later they both came downstairs again, and Maud had a brush in her hands.
"Mom, will you comb my hair?" She asked very sweetly.
"And mine too?" Maera added. They both loved when their mother combed their hair.
"Sure, sit down." Their mother said. Just like she was at that time, the girls were quite small for their age. They also were the mirror image of each other. Both had long, blondish hair and very expressive blue eyes. She was of course biased, but she thought her daughters were the prettiest girls she had ever seen. She hugged her oldest daughter Maud from behind and said. "You're all done, it's Maera her turn now." Maud stood up and went to set the table.
They went to Diagon Alley as soon as they finished eating. She hadn't seen Maud that excited in a very long time and it hurt her to know that she would have to involve her. She put all of that off her mind for now though, something she had gotten very good at since three years ago. She would enjoy this day at Diagon Alley just as much as her daughters and then the next day she would find a way to tell Maud. She would.
