Chapter 1

disclaimer: I do not own Wizards of Waverly Place or any of the people associated with that show.

I zipped the last of my suitcases and lugged it downstairs. Before I left the room, I looked at the empty drawers and walls where my clothes and posters used to be located. Now, they were in a cardboard box, waiting my retrieval at the bottom of the staircase of this orphanage. I was sent away to a magical orphanage when I was a baby. My parents couldn't afford to have a child on their hands, so they decided to leave me here. Now that I turned 14, Professor something or other, I forgot his name, he's got himself a long beard, came here and assigned me to a wizard family to help me train my powers. My orphanage mother, Cathy was waiting at the foot of the stairs. I carried my suitcase downstairs as that Professor guy came into the living room. I looked up at Cathy and she had tears in her eyes. She hugged me, and I felt her warm tears falling onto my tee shirt.

"Cathy, please don't cry, I'll keep in touch, I promise," I said and she smiled as she released me from her grip.

"I'm sorry Morgan. I guess this is goodbye,"

"No, goodbye means forgetting. I don't want to forget. See you later,"

"In a while crocodile," she replied. I grabbed my suitcase and Professor grabbed my box. He led me through a door to a hall with many others. He led me to a door that said, "RUSSO" above it.

"Well, here's your stop. Would you like me to come in with you?"

"Uhm, no thanks," i replied, unsure.

"Alright, here's a letter to give to Jerry," he said and turned away from me and into another door.

I stood there until he was out of sight and took a deep breath.

"It's now or never," I whispered quietly to myself. I reached out for the handle and opened the door and stepped through.
