Chaper 1: Time to go
"Harry!" the sweet voice of Lily Snape cried, "Get up! It's time to get ready for school!"
At the word school the carefully etched face of Harry Snape shot up from his pillow, his long greasy black hair sticking to his pale face. "Man I almost forgot!" Harry excitedly whispered to himself. He quickly looked over at the small calendar he had made marking down the days till he would go to Hogwarts, making sure she wasn't joking. He sprang out of his misshapen bed and got dressed so quickly that he almost put his shirt on in stead of his pants.
When he was finally dressed he ran downstairs and almost ran into his mother coming to make sure he was awake. "Sorry Mom!" he apologized quickly.
"You sure seem excited." She replied with a smile that made her brilliant green eyes twinkle.
Harry just gave her a toothy smile back.
After he almost choked on his breakfast, he and his mother got in to the blue Ford Anglia. After they got all of Harry's things into the back they took off down the road toward the corner. Harry took a quick look back at the house on Chestnut Street. The car turned and in one blink of his green almond eyes it was gone.
