Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Chapter One: You've Got Mail...Again.



"Hey, this movie is pretty cool. It's better than The Great Humberto," suggested young 15-year-old Roxy Lane.

"The Great Humberto? That movie was kind of okay," said Roxy's friend, Claire Rivers. Claire was also 15 years old.

Roxy shrugged. "Look, I'm bored. There's like, nothing to do!"

Claire looked up from her notebook. "Well, we could check out the boxes of junk my parents kept in the storage place. I'm supposed to put them away to the cupboard under the stairs anyway."

Roxy shrugged again. "Anything to keep ourselves busy."

Claire stood up and led Roxy to the storage room. Claire opened the door with a flourish.

Roxy gasped. "Whoa. That's a whole lot of boxes to put away."

Claire walked toward a sea of big boxes. "We might as well check 'em out."

Claire hadn't so much as touch a box when the doorbell rang.

"It's probably mum," Claire muttered to herself.

"Claire? Honey, we're home!" a voice called down from the hallway.

"---And dad," Claire added.

Mrs. Rivers poked her head into the storage room. "Hi honey. Hi Roxy. Claire? Remember about the transferring? We've decided that Hogwarts would be the best one." Mrs. Rivers handed Claire an envelope of some sort.

Roxy suddenly leaped over and hugged Claire with all the strength she could muster. "Oh my gosh! I love you! I love you too Mrs. Rivers!" she shrieked.

"AIR!" Claire managed to choke out.

Roxy let go. "This is SO cool. My mum and dad told me I was going to transfer to Hogwarts, too!"

Claire gasped. "Why didn't you tell me!?"

Roxy shrugged. "They just told me last night. But I had to go to bed then."

Mrs. Rivers suddenly laughed. "Well, I'll leave you two to your little celebration." Then she left.

"You know, I've heard from our old classmates that Hogwarts wasn't so great. They said Hogwarts was such a lame-o," Claire said.

Roxy shrugged. "Well, I don't know. We'll just have to see for ourselves."

Claire was opening the thick envelope that was made of yellowish parchment. "I heard Hogwarts had four houses with a mascot of their own. And they have this Inter-House Championship and Inter-house Quidditch thing. The Quidditch part sounded pretty interesting."

"I dunno, but at least hope that Hogwarts is going to be just as cool as Beauxbatons was," Roxy said.

Claire laughed. "I've been attending at Beauxbatons for four years and so far, I STILL don't even know one word of French."

Claire pulled out a couple pages of parchment. She skimmed the first scroll of parchment. "...Dear Miss Rivers, We are pleased to inform you--yeah, yeah, I got the same thing four years ago."

Claire pulled out another sheet. "A permission slip to go to the town of Hogsmeade...a list of school things...and---that's it."

Roxy nodded. "I got those too. My mum and dad are taking me to someplace called Diagon Alley to get my school things tomorrow. Want to come?"

Claire shrugged. "Maybe. I'll ask my parents."

Claire and Roxy went up to Claire's room to talk more about their new school and things (a/n: well, it's called "girl-talk"). Two hours after, Roxy had to go home for dinner.

That was how the day went.
