Chapter 1:
It's my birthday today I'm so excited because I had no idea what my presents were but
they look big. My best friend Julian was with me, he lived right next to me, I was friends
with him since kindergarten. Then my family and friends started singing happy birthday
to you. Then they brought out a chocolate ice cream cake it has a flame design with my
name and my age, 11.
Then my mom and dad brought the presents over to the guest room table. My first
present was from my friend Julian he got me an ouija board. Right when everyone could
see the present my mom and dad exchanged looks. Then I opened, my aunt and uncles
present, which was a ipod nano. That was epic already, all these awesome presents
then my mom and dad got me an xbox 360. I hugged all my family members then I
hugged last, my sister Elizabeth.
Julian, Elizabeth and I went in to my room when it was about 9:30 to play the ouija
board. It was something I never knew how to do but my older sister was 14 and knew all
about it and showed Julian and I. It seemed fun but my sister said "it might take awhile to
get a ghost or even to get one." Then we started we all three put 2 fingers on it and then
spun the planchette around 4 times. I asked "is there anyone out there to talk to us." The
planchette moved to yes and it wasn't any of us moving it because we all were barely
touching it and could tell if someone moved it.
We continued with the ouija board answering silly questions like what's your favorite
color, food, clothes and it replied to all of them. I checked to make sure no one was
moving it, so I wrote three numbers on a paper and then folded it up. Then I asked "what
3 numbers are in the paper." My sister or friend, Julian didn't look at the paper. The
planchette moved to the three numbers that was on the piece of paper. I soon ask "how
old are you?" It replied with 11, just the same age as me. We decided to stop because it
was getting late out.
The next morning Julian came to my house in the afternoon saying he needed to talk to
me privately. I asked "what's the matter?" He replied "I got a letter from this school name
Hogwarts. It's a school for wizards so apparently I'm one. I don't know if i'm allowed to
tell people but I just needed to tell you." I was shocked my eyes widened but somehow I
kind of felt jealous because he was a wizard and i'm a regular boy.
