It was a dark gloomy day when Lily Nightshade woke up. Her perpetually kohl-rimmed eyes peered out into the rain and she smiled. Today was her first day at Hogwarts!
Lily was a transfer student from the American Wizardry School known as ThunderboltznLightning that was based out of Seattle, Washington. Lily had been the best witch in her class and had won a full scholarship for a year at Hogwarts! Being from Seattle, Lily was used to the rain, and some might say she even loved the rain so much so why doesn't she marry it?! As she donned her black vinyl robe here in room above the Leaky Cauldron, she remembered her boyfriend back home. He was a famous rock star by the name of Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day [that was his full name that people had to address him by. You might have heard of him, he's got like a couple hit songs and did some music videos. Anyway, Lily had been going out with Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day for like three years already. Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day wasn't a wizard, though he did some pretty amazing magic with his guitar. Lily was going to miss Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day, but he had promised to come rock Hogwarts if his band was in the area.
Lily tried to tame her bed-head to the perfect amount of tousseled-eness, and she made sure the shock of bright blue was in her bangs was combed down so it hid one eye.
She started feeling a little nervous as she sat down to breakfast. She noticed another girl sitting at the table across from her, looking just as nervous...
