The News

Dear Diary,

The post came today. It was from Hogwarts. My letter stated that would be resorted and made Head Girl. I was estactic. Hip-Hip-Hooray. I know it was filled with so much sarcasm right?

Well, instead of being estactic, I was very upset. Not because that I had gotten Head girl but because of my parents. I know that the Dark Lord was defeatedbut the thing is that with my parents being ex-death eaters. It's well hard to go out in public. Even though they were cleared of all charges because they were under the Imperius Curse. Everyone still hated us.

So that brings me to the current topic. MOVING!!!! If we were moving to a different spot in England that would be fine but a different COUNTRY!!!???? Not only a different country butone without a magical school. Like America. OMG!!!I think that is a little outrageous. But when I said that they replied with, "Oh Mia, it will be alright. It will very fun for you."

UGH!!!! That drives me crazy all the time when they do that.

My thoughts during this conversation:

WHAT!!!

There is no fuckin' way.

No magical schools!!!

Home-schooled magic!!!

Muggle school!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Why?????

Then when I said I could stay with Lukas. They said,"Lukas is coming with us, but is going to live in a different house in America."

When did I get the notice about this shit! Oops well there's the door!
Bye Hermione Sabrina Annaliesa Amelia

I got up to open the door to find everyone but the parents but the parents there.

"We've got to talk," Zane annouced.

"Okay but be quiet, Cole's sleeping," I replied as I pointed to the crib. Then everyone started to file in. Everyone sat down except Lukas and me because me and him are the oldest boy and girl.

"Okay, we need to figure out how to deal with this 'change'," said Lukas.

"Well I think we should just protest not going there," Blaise said.

"We could do that, but we can't. Mum's heart would be broken," Zane replied.

"Then we could try to see if we can move somewhere else other than America or somewhere else closer too England,"Blaise said.

"Yeah, that could work," I said thoughtfully. After we worked out the details of that plan we sent down Lukas, Blaise, and Zane to discuss with mum and dad.

"Well, while they're gone why don't we play slap jack or something," I suggested to the kids. I set up blankets and pillows around the younger ones on the bed to keep them from falling off.

After doing that we set up a table and got some cards to start playing. Many cuss words later and a few broken items later. We finally settled on a game to play and started to play poker, the others were playing CandyLand.

About two hours later we heard the boys come through the doorway. They looked exhausted and frustrated. Everyone looked up to them with expressions that said,"Well, What the hell happened!" They just shook their heads and layed on the floor next to bed.

"They won't budge on moving to America, but they said we could come to a comprimise on where in America," Zane said.

"Well at least that's getting us somewhere," Timothy said.

"Yeah, Yeah," everyone chorused.

"If that's the best than that's good. I guess," I whispered.

"They gave us a list of places they were thinking of," Zane said handing us a copy of the lists. The list stated as follows:
List of Possible Places to Move-
1.Los Angeles, California 2.Miami, Florida 3.Nashville, Tennesse 4.Alatana, Nebraska (A/N--I know no one has probably heard of this city. It is very small. Population is 50 people)
5. Kingston, Minnesota (A/N--Another small town)
6. Somewhere, Wyoming 7. New York City, New York 8. Chicago, Illonois 9. Annapolis, Maryland (A/N--Just had put this in)
10. Alberque, New Mexico

"Well, either huge cities or small towns," I exclaimed after looking at the list.

"I don't want to live in the big cities," Anthony whined. All the other younger kids agreed.

"Well, that would narrow the choices down a bit," Lukas replied.

"That would also be a good think too.'Cause according to some stuff I read, the big cities are huge with things children shouldn't be exposed to," I explained. So after the revision of the list it looked like this. The List Revised By The Kids 1. Alanta, Nebraska 2. Kingston, Minnesota 3. Somewhere, Wyoming 4. Annapolis, Maryland.

Lukas, Blaise, and Zane went downstairs to give the list to mum and dad.

A/N--Okay I was planning on adding another chapter on Wednesday after school let out but... something happened where I live. If you haven't heard of the shooting in Omaha, Nebraska. There was a massacre there, which happens to be where I live. A 19 year old boy decided to 'go out like a star' and shot up Westroads Mall. After shoting 13 other people, he shot himself. 9 people are now dead and 5 were injured.

When I heard about this at the time I was in JROTC class and this guy was texting. The command sergant major told him to put his phone away. Well then he said that someone was shot up the mall and one person was dead. So the CSM looked it up on the computer. At the time we only knew one person was dead and for all we knew the shooter was still in the mall with the people, alive.

When I had gotten home I turned on the news and they reported that 9 people were dead and 5 were injured including the killer.

This was one of the reasons I was not able to update when I had wanted to.

I just want everyone to have the victims' family in the prayers. Right now the flag here in Omaha is raised at half staff til Sunday.

Thanks for reading.
