Tegan : (Tay-Gan) :)


The moon had cast a large shadow through the window of Tehgan Hollyfield's room. She had begged for several weeks that her parents remove the large dresser that created ominous shadows all over her room when the moon was out. Had they? No. It had been a week since Tehgan had turned eleven, and the summer was beginning to dwindle. It had been a complete waste. She felt no different than when she had been ten.

Except, she was different. In fact, she knew she was different, as well as her parents. Unexplainable things happened to her numerous times a week. Sometimes, days. Tehgan slept soundly in her bed as the house set still. There were only the sounds of the rustling wind outside and the soft ticking of the wall clock in the kitchen.

It'd only be a few hours until she would wake, only to see the last days of summer drift off into the past. School would be starting soon and like every other normal child her age, she wished the summer would restart.

Tehgan Hollyfield lived in a small house located on Privet Drive. Her parents had normal jobs and she had spent everyday of the summer with her sitter, Eden Mayflower. Her parents had insisted she be watched while they worked, just in case. Whatever that had meant. But tomorrow, she had her parents for the day.

Lurking outside, a giant man was wandering that street. He was looking for someone, not her, but someone else. In his hands, he had a letter. Unfortunately, the first peeks of the sun proved his trip a failure. He had to return back to where he had come, only to let the few owls that had recently populated the street signs, do their job.

Tehgan's neighbors owned a rooster. One that, when the first beginnings of morning would peek over the horizon, liked to shout it out to the world. Six in the morning was her usual time of awakening. Bouncing down the stairs, she rounded the corner to the kitchen, stopping in the hall to peer at the "welcome" mat by the front door.

There, lying amongst green and red paisley, was a thick enveloped. After a quick examination, she was positive it was hers. On the front, there was no return address, only the following:

Ms. Tehgan Hollyfield

The Room Above The Kitchen

2 Privet Drive

Turning it over, a seal had been stamped to keep the envelope closed. rather strange...She began opening the letter by sliding her finger underneath the flap. Hesitating before unhinging the last part of the flap, she wondered if she ought to wait for her parents to come downstairs. Anticipation answered her thoughts by allowing her fingers to rip the envelope the rest of the way open.

Tehgan's eyes scanned the page over and over. accepted where? await my what? She had began to believe it was only a prank. Perhaps one of the boys down at 4 Privet Drive had done this. It seemed all too authentic though. Excusing the thought, she moved onto the second page.

PARENTS ARE REMINDED THAT FIRST YEARS ARE NOT ALLOWED THEIR OWN BROOMSTICK

It had been decided; the boys down the street had NOT written the letter. She didn't know of either of them to have the creativity or even patience to do such a thing. Tehgan moved her way to the living room where she sank into the plush cushions of the family couch. She'd just wait for her parents to get up. Yes, that's what she would do. They'd know exactly what was going on. Well, would they?

Of course things happened to her that where not normal. Amazing, but not normal. Had her parents know the cause of these things and just haven't told her? They were ones to keep things from someone to protect them. Had they gone to this...school as well?

The only thing that Tehgan knew for a fact at that moment was that she was going to go Sherlock Holmes on her parents. They couldn't sleep all day.
