"Achoo," sneezed Claudia, as she inhaled the dust that had settled upon an old wooden cabinet. They were packing up their things to get ready for their long trip back to England. It had been two weeks since her grandparents not so unexpected deaths, and although she had only met them when she was very young, they kept in touch regularly, and she was very saddened by their deaths. Claudia 's father had decided to move back to England to keep up the old manor, he hadn't been back since the days of Voldemort.
Claudia continued to pack, lost in her world of curiosity and nervousness, careful to nuzzle her Nimbus 2000 around her purple and gold quidditch robes.
"Hey,"said Claudine. Claudia turned around, her long blonde hair falling into her eyes, "What is it, Claudine?"
"Look at this picture,I think it's our mother," replied Claudine.
Claudia stared down at the picture, she was beautiful, with long raven locks, and soft, emerald green eyes, she was a mirror image of Claudette, the third triplet.
"Let me see that," Claudette grabbed the picture away from Claudine, and studied it carefully. Claudette had always been fascinated with her mother, since her mysterious disappearance.
"She was so beautiful," Claudette gushed, knowing full well that they were basically identical, "So much unlike father."
Claudia gave her a withering look, for she had inherited his white blond hair and aqua-marine eyes.
"I hope Hogwarts has a good library," Claudine added, trying to lighten the mood, " I hear it has one of the largest restricted areas in all of Europe."
"Is that all you ever think of, books," Claudette replied nastily.
"Oh come on, let's finish packing."
The rest of the packing went quickly, and before they knew it, they were on board their ship across the Atlantic Ocean, carefully disguised as muggles.
"Come on girls," whispered Edward, the girl's father, "We have to catch the port key to Kent-Sussex by four 'O clock."
They hurried away from the docks, up the stairs to the park across the street, where their father was already scowwering the grounds for the port key.
"Maybe this is it, Dad."
Claudia held up a dented can of creamed corn.
"I hope so, because we only have 40 seconds."
Sure enough, the 40 seconds counted down and they were grabbed by the tin can and landed outside of a large mansion surrounded with giant red cedars.
"Wow, it's gorgeous," Claudine said, breathlessly, "It must have atleast fifty rooms in it!"
"Well, I'm glad you like it,"smiled their father,"it will be your home for another two weeks before you go to Hogwarts."
They pushed open the hand crafted oak doors to reveal a large entry way with a painted cathedral ceiling of cherubs dancing around the fluffy white pillars of clouds. Two stairwells tapered with gold led up to a large balcony
from where the bedrooms were accesible. The girls could hardely wait to pick out their rooms.
Claudia opened the door to her room. It was a large circular room located in the northern tower and was paneled with solid mahogany, with rich purple draperies over her large bay window. On the northern side, there was a stain-glass window of a stunning women with pale blonde hair and peircing blue eyes. She had on robes of red silk and Claudia thought to herself that it must have been her grandmother.
Claudia sank into her gilded sleigh bed's feather matress and fell into a deep sleep, only disturbed by her father's shouts early the next morning.
