Disclaimer: For this chapter and all others within this story, I do not own any of the recognizable characters. The only character that I have any claim to whatsoever, no matter how small and insignificant, is Zephyr Carbino. Her and her family are of my own creation, as is the idea or plot that surrounds her. Anything else that you recognize belongs to the beautiful and amazing Jo Rowling.

Summary:

Each person has the power to make a difference. While this may be true, each person doesn't necessarily always make a difference. Especially when you attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Many students have passed through these halls, and few have had the power to do more than leave a half-baked impression upon their professors. There are some, like Tom Riddle and Harry Potter, who have the power to change Hogwarts and beyond- their influence far reaching. This is the story of one such student. This is the story of one American muggle born witch who chose to defy the odds. Read and watch as, through these interconnected one-shots, she changes the lives of those she touches.

A/N: Alright, so I hope no one kills me, but I'm posting another story. I've had this one stuck in my head for a while and I just needed to start writing it and getting it out. It'll be a series of one-shots detailing the life of this young girl, who will ultimately cause a ripple effect. Updates will probably be irregular, and the chapters will be extremely short, but I think it has some merit.

It's worth a read, I think. If you like it, great, please review. If not, well, that's fine too.
