Prologue, Defence.
Dear diary, My name is Saidbh Gabrial-Theresa Foley.I'm 5'12 which is really weird 'cause I'm only 16. I have brown curly-ish hair and olive brown eyes eyes I am kind of fat and even though I'm fat I am a bit small in the ,um, chestal area, I was born in Ireland and I stayed there until I was 15, I went to O'Learies school for witchcraft and wizardry, then my mom finally got fed up with the rain and decided that england was somehow "sunny". Any way I'm pretty weird because I'm a witch, and a muggleborn, but the thing that is weirdest about me is that I have really weird powers. Like seriously, I can make a fireball in the palm of my hand, and I can move the air and make people unable to breath, and I can bring water out of anywhere even from the walls and then I can make earthquakes and stuff, I figured this out when I was 5. I was just sitting in the park reading my book when thes two seven year olds came up behind me and picked up my book ,"hey Saidbh, whatcha' readin, poopy stuff I bet. Pride an' Predudick." "for yer information" I said "it's pride an' predjudice". "Well you won't be needing it" they said and started tearing it up "Stop!" I said. When all of a sudden they started choking and fire started running up their arms, I suppose it would be pretty useful in battle now that you-know-who's been resurrected, but i was really freaked out at the time. I still have trouble saying you-know whos name though. I'm a hufflepuff and I'm in my sixth year at hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry, but I don't think anyone ever notices me, even though I am the smartest person in this entire school, including dumbledore,way, im not really the smartest, in fact I'd say im probably the dumbest in my year, im pretty smart logic wise though,but anyway its either they don't notice me or they just ignore me…I really do hate it when people pay loads of attention to me, but come on I would enjoy people knowing I existed! I just find it really unfair. Anyway the other day I heard one of the "famous trio", Hermione Granger, talking to Katie Bell and Alicia Spinnet about a secret defense group and anyone who wanted to join just had to go to the hogs head at 12 at the next Hogsmeade visit. I decided I would show up. This might be my ticket to people noticing me, I am not that good at defence though.. And I want to be able to show off a little bit with my powers I really want to leave everyone there flabbergasted so I might just throw up a shield of earth or air or something like that.
