Chapter 4~ "Leaving Home"
"Hogwarts?"
~*Yes, Hogwarts. H-O-G*~
"Hahaha....Very funny. I was just surprised is all."
~*Humph. Fine.*~
Jen open the letter, curious as to what was inside.
A small piece of parchment fell out with words scratched in green ink. It read:
Dear Miss. Lorda,
I am Very pleased to announce that you have been accepted in to
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Your grandmother had
always hoped that you would one day attend Hogwarts. However, your
parents decided differently. Since it seems that you have managed to
get
yourself kicked out of your twelfth school before your sixth year, I
figured
that your parent's decision on schooling wasn't working out.
Please send a response as soon as possible. You can just attach
it
to this speedy little owl that I have found comes in handy during
situations
like these.
Albus Dumbledore
Headmaster
"Wow...."
~*Well? Aren't you going to respond?*~
"Well.....I wanna......But what would my parents-"
~*Parents! PARENTS! You just got accepted to the school you always
wanted to go to! The school your parents wouldn't let you go to! And
now your wondering what they would -think-!? WHO CARES!! ::sigh::
Besides, your grandmother wanted you to go to this school.*~
A quiet pause followed, in which Jen said a small silent thank you to
the Mother for letting her grandmother's passing be a peaceful one.
"All right," she finally said. "But I'll need a plan."
An hour latter, Jen had her bags packed and was ready to go...Well,
almost ready anyway. "Ok, run that by me -one- more time."
~*Fine... You are going to slip into your parent's bedroom, the room
you are nest too. You're going to grab your collage fund in the drawer
next to the bed, and leave the note. Got it?*~
"Ya, I think so."
~*Good. I didn't want to explain it -again-. Now hurry up!*~
Ignoring the ridiculous voice in her head, Jen started into the room.
Her parents were sound asleep.
*This is almost too easy.*
Slowly, as not to make any noise, she walked over to the drawer.
Every so carefully, she opened it and snatched the small package full
of money.
*Ya should have trusted the backs to keep this safe. Too bad.*
Before she left the room, she took one last look at her parents.
Surprisingly, she was sad about leaving them. But even more so because
they would never understand why she had to go.
~*Hurry up! You're going to miss the plane! And the cab's already
here!*~
Startled, Jen quickly grabbed her bags and sprinted down the stairs.
*Shit! I forgot the letter!*
~*Well, hurry up about it!*~
*Arg...*
About as quickly as she grabbed her bags, she snatched the letter out
of her pocket and left it on the stair handle. Then she ran out the
door toward the cab waiting for her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Mom and Dad,
You may never understand why, but I had to go. I received a letter from Hogwarts. Dumbledore, the headmaster, asked me to attend the school. I accepted. I took my collage fund and bought a ticket on to the first plane to London. Don't try to find me, you won't.
Jen~

A/N: ::tear:: I loved this chapter, even if you didn't. :p I'm joking of course. I do care what you think. Really I do. I read and reread every review I get. This is why you -MUST- review! I don't mind if it is flame either, I'll just take it as constructive criticism to help me write. Well, obviously, I don't want flame -unless- you have a reason for not liking something. So please be kind and review! ^_^
