Diclaimer: I do not

Please don't sue me. BYE!!
April Lily PotterSummerwind was very excited. An emotion she realized she had not felt
in a long time. You see, April had lived in an orphanage all of her
life She was told that her parents were " mysteriously" killed in
a "boating accident" But she knew better. Her parents weren't
killed in a very normal way. An extremely powerful wizard murdered
her parents. She had read all about it. And now she had a letter from
a witchcraft and wizardry school to prove it. She also knew the
following things, and kept running through them in her head. The
first thing was that she must have had parents that were a Witch and Wizard because
she received her letter to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
when she was only 9 years old. Therefore, she received a special
letter. Here it is:
Miss. AprilSummerwind,
We are pleased to
inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of
Witchcraft and wizardry. Please note that most students are only
accepted when they are age 11, but our headmaster, Professor Albus
Dumbledore, has decided to accept you at the age of 9.Enclosed in the
a letter is a list, which lists all of the supplies.
Sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Deputy Headmistressof Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
What April could not
figure out was why, if only her parents were murdered, why was she
living in an orphanage. Shouldn't she be living with her aunt and
uncle? Or grandparents? Or someone! She knew that someone in her
family must be alive. Somewhere.
The next month passed
quickly. At the end of August, she left the orphanage to walk to King
Cross station with her school supplies, which she had purchased about
a week before, byy herself, of course/
She reached the station, and was shocked to see that
her ticket said " Platform 9 ¾
She heard a family
going by, saying, "Every year, why are there so many muggles?"
:Isn't that a wizarding word?" she wondered out loud. She decided
to follow the family.
She watched as the
family walked between 2 platforms, and, somehow, walked straight into
the wall! She looked at a boy with a lightening shaped scar and
and messy black hairnervously.
The boy asked, "Is this your first time to Hogwarts?"
April nodded nervously. "Don't worry," he said, " This is only
my second year. You have to walk right towards that wall. Okay?"
April nodded, and walked towards the wall. She went right through,
and there was a huge train that said " Hogwarts Express." In amazement, She
boarded the train, and stepped into the first compartment that was
open. She took a book from her bag, and began to read.
A girl with busy hair
although, quite pretty in April's opinion peered into April's
compartment. " Can I sit here, please?" she Questioned. "Sorry, but everywhere else
is full." April nodded her head shyly. " Thanks", said the
bushy haired girl.
April shyly looked out
the window, then returned to her book. The bushy haired girl said"
So, my name is Hermione Granger. Who are you?"
" I'm.. I'm.," she stuttered. " My name is April. April Summerwind." " Oh!
Are you the new student? You know, the one Professor Dumbledore told
me about? He said you were only 9! Is that true?"
"So many questions!" April thought, but responded, " Yes," quietly.
