The Voice

It was a typical summer day in Beeville, Texas. When all of a sudden a young girl was torn from her sleep by a strange voice that kept calling her name.

"Who's there?" asked the frightened girl.

"You know who I am. Hope. You have been looking for me for many years. So here I am." replied the strange voice.

"That doesn't answer my question. Who are you?"

"I am the person who will lead you on a journey to find your brother."

"My brother. I have a brother?"

"Yes. But for now you must rest then later I will guide you to your brother."

After that the strange voice disappeared and Hope feel back to sleep think only one thing. That her grandmother had been right she did have a brother.

Half way across the world a young girl by the name of Faith was hearing the same thing. The only thing that was different was that she knew that this day would come and was ready for what came next.

There was only a month left of summer and the two girls had convinced them selves that it was probably just a dream they had. Until the morning when they walked to their kitchens one sunny Monday morning. There on the table was an owl holding a letter with their name on it.

Hope slowly approached the brown owl that set on her kitchen table. She took the letter from it and it flew back out the open window. She slowly read the letter…

Dear Hope,

Today is the day your journey towards your brother shall begin. You are to head to a house in England called The Burrow. There you shall meet a woman by the name of Mrs. Weasley. But you are not to call her that you are to refer to her as and only as silver hawk. By calling her that she will instantly know who you are and why you are there. Now on your journey you are only to take a bag full of clothes and food. In your pockets you can't have more that ten dollars. If you disobey these orders then you will never find you brother. Go now and tell only your grandmother of where you are going.

Forgetting her hunger Hope ran up the stairs to her room and began to pack quickly sqibabling a note to her grandmother she left her home on her way to England.

On reading her letter, Faith just set there in shock. She had known for years that this day would come but now that it had she wished it hadn't.

Dear Faith,

But you are not to call her that you are to refer to her as and only as black falcon. By calling her that she will instantly know who you are and why you are there. Now on your journey you are only to take a bag full of clothes and food. In your pockets you can't have more that ten dollars. If you disobey these orders then you will never find you brother. Go now and tell only your mother of where you are going.

After about an hour Faith got out a piece of paper and wrote a note to her mother telling her everything that had happened. She then made her way slowly to her room to get her things. She knew that everything was going to change as soon as she stepped out her front door.Taking a deep breath she opened the door and stepped outside never looking back.
