Just as suddenly as everything went black, they were standing outside the back door of the leaky cauldron. "Mom how did that happen?" Lily asked
"I'm not sure but come on sweetie lets get going. I'm sure that Fred is waiting for us with the car." Kathleen took hold of her daughter's hand and led her into the leaky cauldron.
"Ah! Back already I see" Mike said looking up from a table that he was washing (A/N or should I say waving his wand over) "and it looks to me like you got a lot off stuff too. What's your birds name Lily?"
"I haven't thought about it um.........Starlight yup that's it Starlight!" Lily said and then turning to her owl she asked it, "Do you like the name Starlight?" Starlight nipped her finger affectionately
"I think that's a yes" mike laughed "well you two had better be getting on your way but if you are ever in the neighborhood again please stop in. and Lily... enjoy Hogwarts."
"Thank you, I will. Have a nice day"
"Come one Lily we ought to be going thank you Mike for that ah... lovely offer and we'll be sure to take you up on it." Kathleen said trying to get out of this place as quickly as possibly (A/N if you didn't already guess, she doesn't like this place and Lily is nice but a little wary of it herself). Kathleen and Lily walked out of the pub to find Fred waiting for them in the car that was parked right outside the Menagerie. "Fred lets go. We need to be home in time for diner."
"Yes mam." Fred said as he got out of the car to open the door for Lily and Kathleen "Did you have an eventful day of shopping?" eyeing the packages carefully
"Yes and do be careful with them when you put them in the trunk, some of them have a tendency to break if not handled carefully"
"Yes Mrs. Evans" since no one outside of the immediate family was supposed to know that Lily was a witch; no one talked on the ride home. When Lily walked in the door, she was greeted by the smell of roast duck. Duck was her favorite, if it was prepared correctly. She only liked Peking duck and due to the fact that today was a big day for her, her favorite meal was prepared (A/N did that make any sense? Oh well and if you haven't tried Peking duck I suggest you do b/c it is so good!)
"Hello ladies" Kenneth greeted his daughter and his wife, "did you have fun shopping?"
"Oh yes father!" Lily said excitedly "you should have been there! All the different types of shops, and everything! We even saw real live goblins! It was so much fun!"
"I'm glad. Now I was just informed that dinner is being put on the table so if we hurry, we might be able to get it while its still warm" (A/N now I know that didn't make any sense but I don't care! Aren't I evil?)
Petunia who had been listening from the doorway ran to her room. She wasn't mad at Lily for being a freak in fact she was mad at herself for not being a freak! Why does everything happen to Lily she wondered? She was prettier, she was the favorite and what was I? Ugly, and normal! That's it NORMAL NORMAL NORMAL! That's all I am normal and nobody wants a normal child, they all want Lily!
The rest of the summer flew by uneventfully. Petunia was still kinda mad at her for being a witch and getting all the attention from her parents. So to get back at Lily she told everyone that she knew about her being a witch. What made her even more mad was the fact that her friends wanted to hang around Lily because they thought she could do love potions and "cool" stuff like that. Even though Lily tried time and time again that she couldn't do that stuff they wouldn't listen and Lily's friends were just as bad. Before she was a witch, she thought that they were her best friends in the world and now, she thought that they only wanted to be friends with her because she was a witch. Lily spent most of the time in her room reading her schoolbooks and learning some of the spells that she was going to learn. She wanted to prove that even though she was a muggle that she could be damn good witch. In her mind everyone was starting out at step one, but she wanted to be at step two. She had made a plan for herself, to cause as much trouble as possible without getting caught. She knew that this was going to be hard but the impossible was her life and if someone said it couldn't be done, she would do it. All to soon, August 31 had come, and she started to pack her school bags.
(hehehehe I did it again! I know its short and I know it sux. Sorry but I wanted to get this out. How I'm doing this is part1 was the letter, part 2 was oh no how can I be a witch part3 was diagon alley part 4 was what happened over the summer, part 5 is the train ride part 6 is the sorting part 7 is the first morning and then it'll be longer parts so bare with me please! I 'm trying to balance everything from school to my courses at Columbia to dance to voice to friends and to this but I'm really trying hard please r/r it would be really nice! Even if it's a flame I'll at least know how you feel!)
(oh and for those of you who want MWPP they will be coming I soon so don't worry!)
