This is my first story on here. I'm a new writer but enjoy what I do. Any and all feedback is appereciated. I will be trying to update weekly.
"Kazui! There's a letter for you!" Haha called.
"Coming!" I called from my room. It was my 11th birthday today. Ichika was coming over with auntie Rukia and Uncle Renji for dinner.
Even though it was just after lunch mom was in the kitchen baking. I found the letter sitting on the table. Ripping it open I pulled out a piece of parchment. I read over the letter, confused. Once I finished I turned to Haha and asked, "Did you know I'm a wizard?"
She stopped what she was doing and took the letter from me. Reading it over she seemed become concerned. "I only ever knew about you being a soul reaper and a quincy. We can ask Otousan about this when he gets home." She went back to what she had been doing.
When dad got home from the clinic he was more confused by the letter than we were. There was a knock on the door and I went to go answer it. Ichika tackled me to the ground moments after I opened the door. "Happy birthday Kazui!" Auntie Rukia and Uncle Renji walked past us into the kitchen.
"Ichigo, what's wrong?" I heard Auntie Rukia ask.
"Kazui's a wizard. Read this." Otousan must've handed the letter to her because all the adults were silent.
Mom came out and suggested that me and Ichika went off to play. I decieded to drag Ichika up to my room so we could leave our bodies there. We both prefered walking around town as soul reapers. "Race ya to Urahara's!" I called. We both used shunpo to try to get the lead. At Urahara's we both crashed into the door at the same time.
"I win!" Ichika called.
"No. We tied!" I responded.
"It was a tie." Urahara said, stepping out from wherever he had been. "Now, who's going to be the one to fix the door?"
"Not me!" Ichika and I said in unison, using shunpo to get away. Urahara wouldn't actually be angry but it was still fun to play. We made our way to a hill at the edge of town. Sitting down, we admired the sunset.
"Do you know what a wizard is?" I asked Ichika.
"A what?" She reponded. "What's a wizard?"
"I don't know. I was asking 'cause apparently I'm one."
Ichika was two years older than me but I still noticed things she didn't. "That's why we were shooed out of the house. I was sent a letter today that I'm a wizard and there's this school I'm supposed to go to on September first. Haha and Otousan are probably talking about what to do."
("Haha" means "mom" in Japenese and "Otousan" means "father")
"You'll be fine!" Ichika said with determied smile. "I'm here and you aren't getting rid of me. Even if you go to some far away school you'll still have me." This was a softer side of her that I didn't remember seeing before.
"Yeah." I said, leaning my head on her shoulder. "I'll always have my best friend, no matter what."
We went home after the sun had set. At home my party was in full swing as soon as I stepped inside. Me being a wizard was pushed to a side, basically forgotten. Aunt Yuzu and Karin came by after dinner. Grandpa Isshin was with them. He tried to attack Otousan who threw him away. That gave everyone a good laugh.
I feel asleep on the couch. As I closed my eyes the last thing I heard was Ichika roughhousing with her father.
In the morning I awoke to haha's cooking. Auntie Rukia was in the kitchen, "How are you going to buy his books and supplies when you've never heard of them before?" I heard her ask.
Haha paused before answering. "We''re going to head to London and hope that someone there can help us."
"So I am going to this wizarding school?" I asked from the doorway.
Neither adult had realized I was there. They couldn't feel my spiritual pressure because I was hiding it. Haha sighed, "Yes. You are going to Hogwarts."
Haha, Otousan, and me were in London. We were searching for someone who knew where to buy a wand, or wizards robes or all the textbooks. Everyone we asked was as confused as we were. After wandering around for a while we ran into a family of red heads. I tugged on the woman's coat. "Excuse me, Miss? Do you know what Hogwarts is?"
She looked down at me. "Of course I do dear. My sons go there."
"Haha! Otousan! I found someone who can help us!" I called. They came over from the people they had been asking. (I'll bold when they're speaking in japenese unless that's what everyone's speaking)
"Sorry ma'am." Otousan said. "We've been trying to find where to buy a wand and no one has any clue what we're talking about. Could you help us?"
"Oh, a muggle born. They really need to find a way to help them better. Follow us deary. We were just headed to buy the twins their things."
The rest of the woman's family appeared as she walked towards a pub.
"Authur, you take Charlie and Percy to get their books. The twins will come with me while I help this family find their way around." The brick wall they had been facing became the entrance to a busy street.
I awed at the sight. Otousan was on edge, there weren't any hollows around, what was wrong? Haha took my hand and introductions were made between families.
"I'm Mrs.Weasley." The woman said. "This is Ginny and Ron." She motioned to the children at her side. They didn't seem much younger than him. "Fred! George! Stop with that already! We're here to buy your things, not to do more of your pranks." She eventually got the twins to follow behind her as they walked.
"I'm Ichigo Kurosaki. This is Orihime Kurosaki." Otousan said.
"And I'm Kazui!" I added.
"First we should get money from Gringotts. You'll have to exchange money for Knuts, Sickles, and Galleons."
As we walked to the bank the adults talked. Something about me being a muggle born or something. I became interested with what the twins were up to. "Whatcha doin?" I asked.
"We're trying to get Ron to find the spider we hid in his hair." One of them said.
Ron noticed the fake spider as we left the bank. He screamed, causing the twins to break down laughing. Their mother scolded them as we walked into a store called Ollivander's wand shop.
The old man, who seemed to run the shop, worked desperately to keep his shop in order while finding wands for the twins. With the store in chaos, they finally found the right wands. Now it was my turn.
Ollivander handed me a wand after measuring me. I said 'lumos' because I had seen the twins say it. Instead of lighting the wand tip like it should have, the spell caused boxes to fall off their shelves. It continued like this for what felt like an hour. (It had only been 10 minutes).
Eventually, Ollivander decided to try a wand that he hadn't found a wizard for yet, even though it had been in his shop since he'd started. It worked perfectly for me. The wand sat in my hand comfortably as I swung it around.
Ollivander took the wand and said, "Twelve and three quarter inches, reasonably pliable, hawthorn wood, the core is most confusing though." He paused before saying, "There is no core."
Mrs.Weasley gasped. Her ginger haired family seemed to take a step away from me. "Is that a bad thing?" I asked. "To have no core to a wand?"
The old wizard didn't respond. Ginny was the one to answer. "No one's ever had a wand without a core."
