a/n: this is my first attempt at an OC fanfict. It will follow my character as she embarks on a journey-shared with 6 other Hogwarts students. It is my part of a group fanfict that I am writing with some of my friends (who are also admins with me on a facebook page). I had the idea and everyone liked it so here we are today. I own all the characters in this chapter, but not the world in which they are placed. That belongs to Queen Rowling, herself. I will also be including some Next Gen somewhere along the lines. (namely, James Potter, Fred Weasley II, and Louis Weasley, and possibly more) Please review! I would love feedback on this! Oh, and I know this chapter is really short, but they wont all be that way!
Chapter 1: It Just Isn't Fair!
'I miss you, Addy-Bear.'
Adelaide Rowan-Addy, to her friends and teammates-read and reread the words scrawled on the tripple-creased paper. They were the closing line of her twin sister, Sadie's latest letter-she had sent one every few days while Addy was away at school, ever since she showed her how to send an owl more than five years before.
Of course Addy was missed. She was at Hogwarts, while Sadie-her other half-, was forced to stay home. Even now, no one could explain why Addy and her younger brother, Nickolai, were both magical, yet poor Sadie was not. It had made for some drama growing up, though, that much was certain.
"I miss you, too, Sadie-Bear," Addy whispered as she wrote the reply to Sadie's letter. "More than you'll know."
There was a knock on the open door to the dormitory she shared with 3 other sixth years, like herself. Addy looked up to see that it was Katie Thomson, who had been a teammate of hers for the past 3 years. And now that she was captain of the Hufflepuff Quidditch team, Katie was her right-hand-man, per se. She smiled shyly at the girl.
"Everything alright, Katie? Come in, come in"
"Yes, I was only wondering what time try-outs were?" Katie stepped through the doorway.
"Four-thirty. I need you there early, along with the rest of the team. I want to work on some plays to test out on our prospective teammates."
"Do you think we'll get anyone good? I heard there might be a boy that wants to be a keeper who can block almost anything"
"We can only hope," Addy replied. "I've got to get this letter sent out before try-outs. I'll be expecting you guys out on the field no later than four. You'll pass on the word, won't you?"
"I'll be there. And I'll make everyone else be there too. Even if I have to drag you-know-who off his girlfriend's lips by his ear. I swear, all that boy does is SNOG! It's rather disgusting!"
With that, Katie left, and Addy followed her out, shaking her head and laughing to herself.
