Chapter One: Meet Jade Starlight.

Jade was woken up by some strange noises downstairs. Zeeko, her pet snake, was slithering around on the wooden floor. Jade looked outside. The sun was still coming up. Why is dad up so early? Jade tried to fall asleep, but the noises from downstairs prevented her from doing so. Finally, Jade gave in and trudged down the stairs. Her father was rummaging through a closet.

"Dad? What are you doing up so early?" Jade questioned, still sleepy.

"Oh, hey Jade. I'm just looking for the floo powder." answered her father, grinning.

Suddenly, her brain jolted awake, and her amber eyes started glistening. She ran upstairs, yelling.

"Diagon Alley! We are going to Diagon Alley!" Jade ran in her room, threw on some new clothes and pulled her black hair into a ponytail.

Pretty soon, Jade's hand was reaching into a pot of powder, shaking with excitement. She stepped into the fireplace. Jade glanced at her dad, who nodded. With a deep breath, she threw the floo powder at the floor of the fireplace.

"DIAGON ALLEY!"
