Hey everyone! So this the first chapter of my fic Magic And It's Secrets~ Hope you guys try and enjoy c:

Chapter 1: Er… Hey

Somewhere in the midst of London lived a girl with black hair and blue eyes. This girl goes by the name Marceline Morris, "Marcie" for short. Marceline is your average looking (or so you thought) girl who enjoys staying indoors and reading alone.

As Marceline was reading her usual book in the library of her home, she heard a rasping sound coming from the window. The black haired girl turned to see an owl as white as snow peering through the window pane. She set aside her book on the couch and walked towards the window. She opened the window and the owl presented a letter to her.

Marceline gently opened the letter and read.

Dear Marceline Morris,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.

Term begins on September 1. We await your owl no later than July 31.

Yours sincerely, Minerva McGonagall Headmistress

Marceline browsed through the letter repeatedly and slumped on the couch. Her parents told her about them being wizards, so Marceline is truly a wizard indeed. Her best friend, Annaliese Diamond is also a wizard. Her parents and Annaliese' parents attended Hogwarts together. Now it's their daughters' turn.

The young girl walked up to her desk where a black owl was perched on one of the many book shelves. Marceline sat down and got a sheet of paper, ink and a quill and began to write.

Annaliese,

I finally got my letter to Hogwarts! What about you? I can't wait to see you. It's been a while. Perhaps we would meet before the start of term?

Sincerely, Marceline

"Noir, please take this to Annaliese." Marceline said while handing the letter to the black owl. The owl took it with it's beak and soared out through the open window.

Marceline sat back down on the couch and continued to read. After about half an hour, Noir came back with a letter. While still soaring in the library, the owl dropped the letter on Marcie's open lap and went back to perch on the shelf once more.

Marceline eagerly opened the letter and read.

Dear Marcie,

I received my letter to Hogwarts too! Finally! I've been DYING waiting for that letter. And we should totally meet. Meet me at Diagon Alley next week, and we'll buy our supplies early. And maybe we could hang out for a while. Anyways, see you soon~

Sincerely, Annaliese

I sighed but smiled. Of course. Annaliese would drag me through Diagon Alley to have some fun. I was expecting this…

A week has passed and Marceline was getting ready to go to Diagon Alley. She wore a long sleeved collar shirt, some tight jeans and leather low inched heal shoes. To top it all off, she wore a black robe and a silver scarf around her neck.

"Be careful Marceline! And tell Annaliese and Angelina my greetings." Marceline's mother, Hayley Morris said as she continued writing down letters for the Ministry. Marceline just nodded and went over to the fireplace.

"Oh, I almost forgot!" the black haired tween called out "Xandra!"

A sleek black cat strutted down the stairs and looked up at her owner.

"Come. We'll be meeting Annaliese at Diagon Alley."

The cat jumped up to her owner and settled on Marceline's arm. The girl with dark green eyes held her cat close to her chest and took a deep breath.

Marceline got a handful of floo powder and threw it in the fireplace along with her, stating "Diagon Alley."

Opening her eyes, Marceline dusted off her robe and Xander's fur. Xander jumped off Marceline's arm and meowed. "Marcie!" a voice called out. The black haired girl turned to the source to see none other than her best friend Annaliese, along with her yellow persion cat, Tamago. Annaliese was waving one hand in the air frantically, trying to get her attention, Tamago resting on the other, while Annaliese' mother, Layla stood beside her.

Marceline walked towards the pair and shook her best friend's mom's hand and greeted her "Always a pleasure to see you Mrs. Diamond." "The pleasure is mine Marceline." Her mother greeted back. "Now I need to go Annaliese. I'll meet you back at home." Annaliese hugged her mother with one hand and the two 11 year olds bid her farewell.

The younger one of the girls let her cat stay with the black cat, turned to her best friend and hugged her, while her best friend hugging her back.

"I missed you Marcie~" Annaliese said filled with glee.

"We just saw each other around 3 weeks earlier." Marceline stated, but smiled.

"Still. C'mon. We'll go buy a cauldron so we have something to put our stuff into." Annaliese said while grabbing Marceline's hand and dragging her to Potage's Cauldron Shop, their cats right behind them.

Not taking their time, they both bought silver cauldrons and left, going to Ollivander's Wand Shop.

"Well, how can I help you girls?" said the lady, who's name appears to be Trina, who is also currently running the store.

"We'd like to buy 2 wands please." Annaliese said with delight.

"New wizards? How delightful! Let me see what we've got here…" the brunette rummaged through boxes of wands, and brought out a box. She opened a box and brought out a 10" brown wand. "This wand's wood is Ivy, very rare indeed, and the core is Dragon Heartstring."

"Ooooh. I want to try it!" the lady gave Annaliese the wand and the girl stood back. She made a flick with her wrist and a spark shot out and hit the desk. "Oops…" the girl shyly returned the wand to Trina.

"It's alright dearie. Would you like to take it?" "Yes please! It's perfect." Annaliese smiled and brought out a bag of galleons, trying to pay the lady.

"And what about you dearie? Would you like to buy the same wand?" Trina asked as she turned to Marceline. The girl just shook her head politely and requested a different wand.

Trina went to search for another box and brought out yet another box. She pulled out another wand, this was also 10" like the first wand, but it was darker brown, almost a black shade. "Now this wand is made of Alder and Unicorn Tail Hair." The lady said while handing the sleek looking wand to Marceline.

Marceline accepted the wand a flicked her wrist, spark coming out of the wand, and making a hole beside the first hole made by Marceline.

"I'm sorry." Marceline said, observing the hole "I'll take it though."

"Wonderful!" Marceline paid the young lady her galleons and the duo left.

"That was fun~ Now to get some books!" Annaliese said as she grabbed Marceline's hand again and dragged her to Flourish and Blotts, their cats behind them again.

"Let's split up, so we can find the books faster." Marceline nodded and went to the very back of the store, Xander staying closely by her side.

Marceline scanned through the titles and saw the book she needed, but on a high shelf. As she tried to reach for it, a hand pulled it off the shelf. The black haired teen turned to see a guy about 5'0" with black spiky hair, strange big wide red eyes and a fair skin tone.

"Hey." The guy said while giving a mischievous grin.

"Er… Hey."
