Lily woke up with a cold sweat in her bed, she had been having a nightmare about some man torturing a lot of people who must've been innocent because of the pain they were forming through their screams. She wasn't so sure if it were real or not even though it felt like she was really there,

But she decided that it was only a dream so there wasn't much to worry about. On her alarm clock the time read 6:35A.M. For a moment she was thinking..something important was going on today but she wasn't quite sure what it was. "OF COURSE!!!!!" she thought. It was her birthday, she would be turning eleven years old today. She was a very organized person, she was always on time, she always had her homework done and she always made sure she was clean she hated being dirty.

As she walked down stairs to the kitchen she passed her sister, Petunia's room, of course the door was shut like always, she thought "I wish she wasn't so mean all the time, I'm the only sister she has, if only she could be nice once." Petunia was never kind to anyone at all, she never listened to anyone except maybe her parents but after they left the room she would continue to break rules.

She always told her parents she was staying at a friends house or over for tea, when she was really with her boyfriend Vernon Dursley, or out smoking with her friends at the park. Lily never really liked Vernon for he was really fat and ugly. She could not see why Petunia would ever go near him and call him handsome when she called lily ugly all the time. Lily of course was not ugly at all, she stood about 4'3 and had long straight auburn hair that reached the bottom of her backside. Her eyes were a dark emerald green, and had very many freckles all around her arms and legs and face. And she also had a very slim body, she was very different then Petunia was. Petunia was two years older than Lily, She had short choppy brown hair that she tried to comb but would never do anything right. Her eyes were light ice blue that could be pretty if she hadn't scowled all the time, she wasn't a very pretty girl she was about the same height of Lily except she was a little bit plump around the middle.

She wore too much makeup that made her look even uglier than she already was, and she was horribly jealous of Lily. To Petunia, Lily was the angel of the family, Petunia never got her way so every time she was into trouble she'd turn around and stick her tongue out at Lily. Well Lily walked into the kitchen to find she was the first up, an owl was on the counter and had a letter attached to its leg. She looked at it not sure what to do, and the owl just stuck its leg out like it was nothing new and that lily was mad if she didn't take the letter. So lily edged her way towards the owl slowly, and took the letter from the owl's leg. It was a letter from a school called Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft And Wizardry, so she opened the letter at first she thought it was a joke but then the owl was still there. So she went into her mother's bedroom and gave her mom the letter. So she said it was okay to get the owl and bring it into her mother's room, she wrote a note and gave it to the owl and said "Take this to whoever sent you here." So the next day they set off to diagon alley.
