I was thinking about Hermione and what would happen if she was sent back in time before she got to Hogwarts. So here you go the first instalment.

It was the morning of Hermione Granger's eleventh birthday and she could never imagine how different her life would become in the one day. When she reached the landing of the first floor she saw her mom with a letter in her hand and a strange lady talking to her.

When her mother saw her she beckoned for her to come over and explained that the lady was Professor McGonagall.

"Hello Mrs. Granger," Professor McGonagall addressed Hermione, "I have a couple of things I would like to tell you and your parents," and with that Hermione's mom lead them all into their living room.

Once they were all a situated in the living room McGonagall began explaining that Hermione is a witch and is being asked to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this school year.

"How will she get her school supplies?" her father asked.

"You mean I can go?" exclaimed the young curly haired girl.

"I would like to take her today if that is alright with all of you."

"Well I guess we could celebrate her birthday when she gets home or tomorrow," her mother supposed.

"Alright then if it is okay I would like to leave now. We have a lot to get done today."

With that Hermione was sent upstairs to get ready to leave and McGonagall explained the rest of the details to the pair of muggle parents. Hermione soon emerged down stairs and bid farewell to her parents as she walked out with the caring but stern looking professor.

They soon arrived at a rundown looking pub and Hermione was scared to enter but McGonagall calmed her telling her that it was the easiest way to enter Diagon Alley and, only wizards could enter it. When they made their way through and into Diagon Alley the first thought Hermione had was of pure amazement of the place. There were so many people and shops with and different signs.

"Okay the first thing we need to do is go to Gringotts," upon seeing the confused look on Hermione's face she said, "It is the finest and safest place to keep your money."

Hermione was amazed at how big the place was, and she felt a bit sick after the ride to her school safe.

"Alright now that you've got money it is time to get your wand."

"How am I going to get a wand?"

"Well I'm taking you to Ollivanders. He is the best person to get a wand from."

As they made their way down the cobblestone street Hermione saw many different things. She slowly became more and more exited till they finally reached Ollivanders.

"Hello Ollivaner I have a young witch here in need of a wand."

"Ah, yes follow me…"

"Hermione," she quietly said.

"Hermione, if you will kindly follow me well get you a wand."

After trying many wands they came across the right one, a 10 ¾ in., vine wood and dragon Heartstring wand. After about another hour of shopping they finally finished and Hermione was brought back home to finish the celebration of her birthday.

"This is your ticket to ride the Hogwarts Express at Kings Cross Station. The train will leave promptly at 11:00 am."

"Thank you, professor," was all Hermione managed to say. With a short nod McGonagall left the family alone to their celebration of their eleven year olds birthday.

After opening all of her presents, which were mostly books, and eating a slice of cake our young witch retreated to her room and sat on her bed to begin one of her new books. No one noticed the man standing outside with a wand cast a spell on Hermione as she sat at her window reading.

I don't know how good it is but I hope you all like it. Please review and tell me what you think, and if you have an idea for a title for this please tell me because I couldn't think of a good one. Also if any of you are Doctor Who fans I have a Doctor Who fan fiction written to check it out please.
