The Path We Choose.......
Chapter One: We are pleased to inform you......
(Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters only Julie, Mr.& Mrs. Callosa and Kaitlyn)
"Julie, there's a letter here for you." Mrs. Callosa yelled into the other room.
"Who's it from? Mary?" Julie eagerly took the letter out of her mother's hand and read the front of the envelope.
Miss Julie Callosa
672 Maple Village Road
London, England
There was a stamp on it, but she didn't recognize it. Carefully, she flipped it over and tore open the paper. Inside was a letter, that seemed to be on ancient paper. She unfolded it, and began to read.
"We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted into Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is the books you will need for this term. The Hogwarts Express leaves promptly at 11:00 from Kings Crossings. See on September 1st."

"Mum, do you know anything about this?" Julie handed her mother the letter and watched as her eyes grew wide in shock or horror, Julie couldn't tell.
"Your, you're a witch?" Mrs. Callosa pointed at her daughter and slowly backed away.
"Mum, what is it? Mum, I don't know the letter doesn't say, Mum what's wrong with being a witch they don't exist do they? MUM WHAT'S WRONG?" Julie shouted out.
"You're a witch, a witch, my own daughter is a witch. Joe, Joe, Julie, she's a-a- a witch! Do something Joe!"
"What the devil is all the noise? What's that?" He grabbed the letter from his terrified wife and read it. His reaction was not as drastic.
"I'm not the least surprised. Don't you remember that ruddy boy from down the lane? He's a wizard. Isn't he her second cousin once removed or something like that?"
"Him. That wretched little boy. I wouldn't know. He's her age. We kept away from that family because they are of a magic back round. But we're not magic folk, why should she be. She's not going. Joe we can't let her." By now Mrs. Callosa was in tears. Standing far away from Julie. Seeing her mother react like this, made Julie cry as well.
"What boy dad? I don't have a second cousin once removed or whatever you just said! What are you talking about? What's so wrong with witches?" Julie buried her head in her hands and wept uncontrollably.
"She's going Alice. She has to. Anyway, by looking at you, I'd say you'd never talk to her even if she was home. I'll contact that family now. I'll ask them to take her in for the rest of the summer." Mr. Callosa walked into the kitchen and started scribbling on a piece of paper.
"Of course you agree with this! Joe, no she can't go! Just because you know more about this ruddy witch crap doesn't make it ok to send our daughter away to such an awful place!"
"How does Dad know about this?" Julie asked, totally bewitched by all that was taking place around her.
"His sister, your aunt is/was a witch." She scowled at the name.
"What the bloody hell is wrong with witches?!" Julie screamed. She almost threw a vase at her mother, but refrained from doing so. Before her grief-stricken mother could answer her very bold question, her dad came back in.
"I've sent the owl away, I've asked them if they would be kind
enough to take Julie in for the rest of summer and see her off at
Kings Crossing." He smiled down at her. "Come here and give me a
hug!" He opened his arms towards her. She ran in to them and buried
her head in his chest. He stroked head as she continued to cry into
him.
"Now run along and get your things packed, you must be ready to leave the moment that owl returns." He playfully shoved her towards the steps. As soon as she was gone, Alice blew up.
"You are enjoying this Joe! You really like this, the, the very thought of having a witch for a daughter! I think it is ludicrous! You wanted to be like your sister. To go to a school that teaches magic. I thought you put that behind you and accepted that you aren't like her and never will be. I hope you don't plan on living out your dream through our daughter!" She took a deep breath and calmed down.
"Look Alice, she deserves this chance. Let her go. Anyway I am sure she doesn't want to stay here, with what you just did." He looked hard into her face.
"Alright let her go. But she'll be staying at the school till' the year is over. When will that bloody bird come back with a response? I want her out as soon as possible." Alice walked away to the dining room, where she started to play with the china that sat on the mantel.
Julie had heard all of this, and started crying again. She ran to her room, where she threw her suitcase on her bed and began to pack in a hurried fashion. She threw in her make-up, (all she was allowed to wear that is; she is 11) some CD's, clothes, and money, all the money she had. She wouldn't let her mother steal it while she was away. She put in a toothbrush, hairbrush, and a few other accessories that she found necessary to have.
Once she had packed, she walked slowly downstairs. She was afraid that her mom might freak if she ran down the stairs too quickly.
"Where will I be going if these people say yes?" Julie asked timidly, watching both her parents expressions.
"They did say yes, you will be going to 12 Grimmauld Place now."
