Some of the characters are not mine! Everyone who read the Harry Potter books knows which characters belong to JK Rowling
Somewhere in Bristol
It was a sunny and warm evening in the last days of June. Halley, a now 11 years old girl, with curly, dark to light brown hair, dark green eyes and some freckles on her cheeks, was walking home with her best friend McKenzie, an also 11 years old girl with long blonde hair and brown eyes.
The two girls know each other for 10 years now. In fact if you wouldn't know, you could think they're siblings.
In 1981, the only 1 year old, Halley was brought to the orphanage she now lives in. Whether Halley nor McKenzie know about their parents but as long as they got each other they wouldn't care about that. The girls were talking about some weird letter which arrived this morning.
"I bet it's just a prank by some of the older kids" Halley laughed. "A very bad one, who'd believe there's a school for witchcraft and wizardry" McKenzie said as they walked up on the stairs and opened the door of the orphanage. "But what if it's true? Could a school like tha-"
"You're late young ladies!" Miss Kendricks, an old, fat woman with blonde dyed hair and the founder of the orphanage, looked at the two girls angrily.
"I'm sorry Miss Kendricks" McKenzie and Halley said at the same moment.
"it's ok. But next time you're so late, both of you will have to face the consequences." the woman said "and now, get ready for dinner"
The girls were sitting in the room which they had to share and looked at the letter Halley got.
"Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" Halley read "first year students need the following books" both sat on their bed and thought about what they read then McKenzie finally spoke
"And what if we'll just buy a bus ticket, go to London and search this book store? Where is it exactly?"
"Diagon Alley" Halley read.
"But if we really want to go and search this place, what are we going to tell Miss Kendricks? 'Hey we'll leave for a few days to search a book store for wizarding books. Oh and by the way I'm a witch and I'll be studying at Hogwarts' I'm sure she'd let us go to London all alone" Halley said in a kind of sarcastic way.
"Well then... We'll leave without her knowing." McKenzie said rebellious.
"Are you sure this is a good idea?"
"Yes" McKenzie whispered excitedly "and if you're a real witch nothing bad is going to happen to us, right?"
"Alright let's do it then"
