Chapter one
It was the first of September, some time in the 70's, at quarter to 11. It was at King's Cross Station, and a young girl could be seen walking around behind her parents. Now I'm sure there were many young girls at King's Cross Station doing the exact same thing as she was now, but there was something special about this one. She wasn't any ordinary girl. She was somehow different...
Lily Evans was her name. Now, what could be so special about her, you ask? Well, for one thing, her ferocious red hair, and her dazzling green eyes. Green eyes so vivid and alive. But now those eyes were lost... lost in thought, thinking about the exact same thing you are now... why she's so special.
Ever heard of a place called Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Well, no I'm sure you haven't, you being a muggle and all... what's that you say? What did I just call you? Oh really, now I've gone and confused you, and distracted you from the point I was getting to.
Now, where was I... ah yes, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Earlier that summer, Lily Evans had received a quite unexpected letter... sent in quite an unusual manner.
She had been sitting outside in the shade of the large maple tree in her backyard, reading. She suddenly heard a rustling of wings overheard, but at first thought nothing of it. Probably just two robins fighting over the same worm, she thought. But then she heard it hoot. Wait a minute, she thought. Robins don't hoot. Now her attention was snagged and she looked up. On one of the branches there was a barn owl starring down at her. Lily was quite startled at first. What the heck was a barn owl doing in her back yard? And then she noticed something attached to its leg. Something white, and square. She squinted her eyes to see if maybe she could see what it was better, when suddenly the owl spread its wings and soared down to her. She was so startled, she let out a scream. The owl dropped the object into her lap, and soared away,and Lily watched as it flew away and got smaller and smaller until it was no longer visible.
Lily then turned her attention back to the object in her lap. It was an envelope, sealed with wax that had a large 'H' stamped on it. She turned it over to look at who it was addressed to. This is what it said.
Lily Evans Under the Maple tree, in the backyard 42 Koala Way London, England
She was confused, but curious, so she turned the letter back over, slid her finger under the seal and opened it. Inside she found 2 pieces of paper. She gasped as she read the letter. She read it over and over trying to see who would pull such a prank, but deep down she knew it wasn't a prank. It was real.
She was... a witch.
A/N( yes, yes, i know it's a lot shorter than before, but the rest of the chapter is undergoing major editing too, so then that will become chapter 2...ok? Ok... now go review!!! :P
