(A/N:) There will be some more of the Harry Potter creation in the story
soon.

As the night went on, Anna and her brother collected many sweets, and no one rejected them. This confused Anna greatly especially as they has knocked on Mr McGrey's door for a laugh who detested trick or treaters, but he gave them both a huge bar of milk chocolate. It had actually turned out to be a good night, not what she was expecting.
As they weeks went by, Anna found that things seemed to go her own way more often than not, but she wasn't complaining. Her brother did of course but no one seemed to do anything about it. Even though he was the younger of the two.
Anna was ten, nearly eleven, August 1st was her birthday and today was July 25th only a few days. But of all the unexpected things that had happened to Anna over the year, the most surprising happened on her birthday.
On the morning of August 1st Anna rushed downstairs as she always did to get the post. There was a considerably large pile of cards at the bottom of the door. Anna scooped them all up and went through them.
"Birthday card from Grandma, birthday card from Granny and Grandpa, birthday card from Auntie Pat and Uncle Ted." Anna muttered to herself as she looked through them.
"Bill for Dad, boring letter for Dad, birthday car, birthday card, birthday card." She went on but stopped when she came to an envelope with emerald green writing on it addressed to her. This didn't look like a card. She turned it over where there was a wax sealing with small pictures on. Anna looked at it closely.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Came her Dad's voice from behind her, her Mum walking up with a huge pile of presents in her hands.
"Come, on, let's go and open them in the lounge." Her mother said.
They all walked into the lounge and sat down and Anna was produced with a box with silver wrapping.
She opened all her presents, said thank you and although they were very nice, the process wasn't exactly what she would call enjoyable. She still had the post clutched in her hands.
"Anna? Who are the cards from sweetie?" Her mother said smiling looking worried.
"Oh, grandma, granny you know. And some bills for you!" She said thrusting a few letters into her mother's hands. "I'm going upstairs now to write some thank you letters." She said. "Thank you very much."
"Awww, that's ok darling!" Her mother said and hugged her.
When Anna could finally get away she went up to her bedroom and shut the door. She put her birthday cards to one side for the moment and proceeded to open the envelope with green writing. She didn't break the wax sealing and with a quivering hand (though she didn't quite know why) she slid her hand inside and pulled out the contents.
There were two peaces of parchment inside. One was a letter and another a list. She read the letter and her heart started beating fast. What was this? Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry?
"Excuse me?" She said out loud. Her mother knocked on the door.
"Can I come in?" Anna heard her say.
"Yes, ermm, ok." She paused for a moment not sure whether to tell her Mum about the letter she had received.
As the door opened, Anna quickly stuffed the letter under her quilt and let her mother come in and sit down beside her on her bed.
"Anna? Are you alright? You don't seem yourself sweetie." Her mother said, concern spread across her face.
"Yes, yes I'm fine." Anna said not very convincingly
"Are you sure?" Her mother asked.
Anna sighed, she would have to tell her sooner or later. " I got this in the post." She said and reached under her quilt to get the letter. Once she found it she handed to her mum and watched her read it as the expressions on her faced changed.
