Chapter 1
Ig
Ig sat at home pondering on what to do. It was the most boring Saturday of the summer! And he was about to turn eleven! Ig wasn't too excited about his eleventh; he'd already had a lot. He couldn't think of anything he wanted for his birthday. Ignatius Spirro was an awkward looking fellow; he had messy, wavy, blonde hair (which was turning brown), an odd type of style, big ears, and (what seemed to be the first thing people noticed about him) his bright, blue eyes. Some people went as far to say they glowed. Ig had grown up with the Harry Potter series. He couldn't remember farther than Harry Potter, he even dressed up like him and pretended! There was always a special place in his heart for Harry, Ron, and Hermione. One day, owls had started flying into his street, which he was fine with, considering Barn Owls were his favorite animal. Weeks later, the owls started coming more and more rapidly. Everywhere you went, there was an owl. One Sunday afternoon, Ig sat bored to death on the sofa. His parents had decided to take Ig and Dmitri out to eat. "YES! WHERE!?" they had both exclaimed. "Well" their mother, Marline responded "considering we're moving to London this Saturday… and it's your favorite… We've decided to go to Applebee's tonight!" Ig and D cried out in celebration. Ig was rather excited and piped up for this, they had rarely eaten out! And even though D kept flicking Ig's overly sized ears, he was still excited! When they arrived, strange thing appeared to be happening around him. Like when they had got their drinks, D was punching Ig in the arm whenever their parents weren't looking, Ig was getting very annoyed and suddenly D's drink seemed to have exploded on the table. After the waitress had cleaned it up and they were done eating they left. Ig was still pondering what happened at dinner, but he just stopped thinking about it, and read Harry Potter or the fifth time. A few days later, they were on the road to London. Well, they were flying really. The whole flight, all Ig and D did was play their videogame and watch the During-Flight-Movie. To Ig's luck, it happened to be Harry Potter Week. After the flight, they had driven down to their new place, it was nice. Ig went to check out his room, it was fantastic! He had his own room! No more sharing with D! They had gone to sleep for their first day back in London.
