It was a warm summer night and everyone in the Lottrid house was
sleeping. Everyone except 15-year-old Anitra. She was sitting on her
window seat looking at the night sky.
Only one more week and back to hogwarts. She thought.
It was going to be her fifth year there. Other than the regular classes
and stuff she has had a very uneventful first 4 years there. Not like that
Harry Potter always managing to find an adventure.
She sighed and got up and walked to her trunk. She opened it, there it was
clear as rain on the cover of her trunk, her beloved list. The list she
was too proud and too ashamed to show anyone else. She read it over
Wut I wanna Do
Find adventure
Solve a mystery/crime
Right a wrong
Fall in love
Come out of the shadows
Turn my dreams into reality
Speak my mind
Stand up for myself
Become somebody
It went on like that. This year at hogwarts maybe she could do one of
them. She grabbed a highlighter from her desk. She started to take of the
lid then stopped and tapped the highlighter on her knee thinking. Then
after about 30 seconds she maid a straight clean line with a surprising
confidence, highlighting the first two.
Whole new year. She thought whole new me, more outgoing! I'm gonna
find my adventure I'm gonna solve my mystery. I'll get right on
it.tommorow.
Then she crept into a bed with a large yawn and was out like a light.

"Rise and shine Ani dear" Mrs. Lottrid exclaimed wile opening the blinds. "Aww mum, its like 5:00am!" whined Anitra as sunlight filled her room and opened her eyes. "Don't aww mum me, it's 10:30 and we have to go get your supplies." Her mother warned, "hurry up and get ready." Anitra groaned as she got as much energy as she could muster and crawled out of bed, she wasn't a morning person.
