Chapter One ā September 1st 2040 Part One
The rain cloud brew over the Brighton coast, as a sleepy Pippa woke up as the day of her sixth year at Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry was going to start.
She went downstairs to the kitchen, were beer bottles and ash trays were and two people slept in the corner of the room, she stepped over them and got to the cupboard to get a bowl and some cereal. She sat down at the table and pushed the beer bottles and ash trays out of the way and started to eat her cereal.
A little later, another person joined Pippa, and sat next to her, with a cup of tea
"Morning sweetie, you all packed"
"Yeah, who an earth is on the floor over there"
The two looked over at the patch of floor
"Andrew's friends, from another night out" she said with a large sigh and took another sip of tea
"We will be going at 7 so we get there early are your brother and sister up yet?"
"No, shall I go and wake them up"
"If you would"
Pippa finished her bowl of cereal and put into the sink and kissed her mother on the cheek, before stepping over the two people in the corner of the kitchen and back upstairs, to wake up her brother & sister
Once upstairs Pippa reached the room that her little brother, shared with his step brother, how was on the floor as far as possible from the bed. She kneeled beside him and whispered in his ear
"Ian, Ian, Ian, wake up"
The grumpy teen opened his eyes to see his older sister knelled down beside him, and then pushed him self up to be a bit more upright and then said
"Thanks sis" smiled before getting out of bed and going downstairs
Next stop Mandy, she shared a room with Pippa and was never ready, so a wake up call would be a good thing
"Mand's get up, we have to go to school in half an hour, also I need to get dressed"
The blonde haired girl stirred and looked at her older sister and opened her eyes, and looked not very happy
"What time is it?"
"6:30"
"Okay"
She to got out of bed and went downstairs as Pippa got ready as another person in the house woke up and went downstairs.
There was a moment of silence, before the angry footsteps coming up the stairs and went straight for Andrew's room and a loud shouting and a lot of swearing later. The peace was restored to the house as Pippa brushed her dark brown hair, as she looked at her face in the mirror, her black eye from last night was on the mend, and she got that for not putting out pudding spoons.
Pippa was already to go and she locked her trunk and started to wheel it downstairs when the butch figure of her step dad came, ready to go up the stairs, she hated her step dad her had caused her nothing but misery all summer, black eyes, busted lips and bruises.
He looked at her with the devil in his eyes as she came down the stairs to the longue were she put her trunk against the wall, that had a broken photograph of her mother, when she was 20 holding her, she looked at then put the broken frame down and sat on the sofa as she waited for her brother and sister to finish.
