It's been eleven years since disappearance of the dark lord. A little eleven year old squirmed in her bed. Her curly dark brown hair lay spread out from her small face like an ocean. "Kaitlyn, wake up!" Her mother called excitedly from somewhere else in the house. She rubbed her eyes drowsily before sitting up in her bed and throwing her pink bed spread off her legs. She glanced at the little alarm clock that she kept next to her bed. It was eight in the morning.

She padded slowly through the hallway toward the kitchen. She turned the corner only to see her mother and stepfather with her little brother and two baby sisters waiting for her. "Surprise!" they yelled. She smiled and ran to hug her mother. "Thanks Mom!" she exclaimed as she looked over to the table. Sitting there was a cake with a broom stick on it that read "Happy Birthday Kaitlyn Hurst" in a rainbow of colors. She smiled at the cake. Witches and wizards had fascinated the young girl ever since she could remember.

They went through the usual birthday procedures. Blew out candles, opened gifts and what not. As her mother and stepfather washed the dishes, she grabbed their cordless house phone and dialed her father's number. He answered after a few rings. "Hey, I was just about to call you!" he said brightly, pleased by the surprise.

"I know." She said with a triumphant smile. She always had a way of telling when things were going to happen. Just little things though. Like when a person was going to arrive or when they were going to call. She didn't talk much about it, no one ever believed her. Her father seemed to have not noticed what she'd said and continued, "Here, I want you to here something." He sat the phone down and Kaitlyn heard all of her other family scream "Happy birthday!" She smiled and called thank you back.

Then they all took turns telling her happy birthday first her sister Hannah, nine, who was the second oldest. Though they fought a lot, they still had an odd fondness of each other that neither could explain. Then her stepbrother Devin, eight. Kaitlyn had always been closest to Devin, mainly because they had similar interest. Then came Tori, her seven year old step sister. Kaitlyn could never tell her no. If Tori wanted something, all she had to do was ask Kaitlyn. Next was Isaiah, who was three. He was a cute little boy, but he had a mean side to him as well. Then her stepmother, Misty, and her father both told her happy birthday too then hung up.

Kaitlyn sat the phone down on the coffee table and headed back into the kitchen where her mother and stepfather were now each feeding the two little kids, Emily two and Kaylee one, while her little brother Carson, also three was eating some cake. Kaitlyn liked Carson alright, but he was really whiney most of the time and cried allot when he didn't get his way. He had white blonde hair and was tall for his age. He had dark brown eyes much like her own, except of course the flecks of gold.

She was told that around the time she was one years old, her mother woke up only to find the streaks of gold in her eyes. No one could explain it, it just sort of happened. She was really proud of her eyes, even if other kids thought they were funny. Her mom always told her that it just made her special and the other kids just couldn't understand.

"Mommy, can I go play outside?" Kaitlyn said, putting on her best puppy dog face.

"I guess so, but get dressed first." She added.

"Yes!" Kaitlyn exclaimed before running into her bedroom.

She ran to her closet and pulled out a white t-shirt and some cinched fleece pants. She then proceeded to braid her hair into separate pigtail braids. When she was finally done she slipped on her light blue converse. She started out the door then stopped, spun around on her heels, then ran to her night stand. She grabbed up her fourleaf clover necklace. She wore it everywhere because she thought it was good luck. She didn't know where it came from, she just woke up one day and found it on her dresser. Now she wouldn't go anywhere without it.

Now dressed Kaitlyn headed outside and up into the forest. Her home was surrounded by woods and mountains. Kaitlyn liked to spend most of her time there- which bothered her mother since she always came back filthy. But Kaitlyn couldn't stay out of the hills. She had hiked over every last inch of the mountains around her house and her father's house. She smiled at the birds chirping over head. That was her favorite part about spring. It was like the world was coming alive all over again. Her feet crunched on the underbrush that littered the forest floor. It was about a five minute hike to her favorite spot. She walked cheerfully, taking it all in.

She heard a soft jingling coming from behind her. She turned and knelt just in time for a little black dog to leap into her arms. "Hi Juliet!" She greeted the puppy with a pet on the head. She had gotten the black lab as an early birthday gift and from day one the pair had been inseparable. Kaitlyn sat the dog down and continued on.

After walking for only a little while longer Kaitlyn, and Juliet, finally made it to the clearing that Kaitlyn loved to visit. The ground was soft and springy, and it was always full of flowers. But they weren't normal flowers. They changed colors everyday. One day they were blue, the next orange or purple or red. Today they were a bright happy yellow color. That wasn't the only odd thing about the meadow, though. It stayed green all through the year, summer or winter. The grass never died and the flower's never wilted, and the giant tree in the middle never lost it's leaves.

Kaitlyn skipped out into the middle and sat down with her back against the tree, exhausted after her long walk. The sun was warm on her face and, along with the amazing aroma of the flowers, was making Kaitlyn sleepy. She yawned loudly and Juliet placed her head on Kaitlyn's lap. Soon enough they had both drifted off to sleep.

When Kaitlyn woke up she was still in the meadow, and the dog still sleeping on her lap, but something felt off. She looked to her right, and then to her left, only to be startled by the fact that she now had another person in the meadow. It was a man with a long white beard and was dressed in long purple robes. Kaitlyn jumped up, startling the dog, and looked at the man, terrified. She noticed out of the corner of her eye that the flowers were becoming a dark shade of gray. The man just smiled at her and stretched out his hands to show her meant no harm. "Hello," He chimed. "My Name is Albus Dumbledore, it's very nice to finally meet you Kaitlyn."
