Prologue
My Hogwarts letter finally arrived today, on the crack of dawn. I remember I was eating cauldron cakes with my little sister when the tawny owl arrived. I lost hope in getting my Hogwarts letter, since I turned eleven on December 25th. September 1st already passed, so I thought I missed my chance. Nevertheless, I got my letter on August 30, 2002. It feels funny to be the oldest of your generation, but it's better than being the youngest (I hope).
I don't look like an eleven year old in my opinion. I'm squat, with long brownish hair and very large front teeth. I also wear a pair of glasses, which cover my dull auburn eyes. I have no choice but to wear them, since my vision is as foul as a bat's. My sister is four years younger than me, and we are nothing alike. She's very vigorous and hyper, yet I'm timid and calm. She's probably energetic because of my mother, and I probably inherited my tranquil nature from my father.
My family is pureblooded. We are not Dark wizards, and we don't hate Muggle borns. Since You-know-who has fallen, I guess that every 'pure blooded' family came to their senses little by little. My mother and father considered joining You-know-who in the past, but they decided to stick to the good side, since they didn't want to ruin their reputation as good Aurors.
Anyway, we live in a pretty house in London. As I've mentioned before, my father and mother are Aurors. I want to be just like them some day. They are very bright wizards, but unlike me they are fearless. Catching Dark wizards is a very perilous job, and I'm not sure I want to follow their footsteps. I will try though, but I don't know if I'll succeed…..
