Aurora Newman rolled out of bed and landed with a thump on the floor. She had been dreaming again, the same dream she's had every night for the past month. It had a boy who looked just like her being tied to a grave stone, and another man with a skull like body and red eyes. All she remembered was the boy fighting the man and then disappearing. She had described the boy to her father but he just avoided the question.
Aurora got up and dresses in her favorite robes the house elves left out for her. She then headed down stairs and met her parents at the breakfast table.
Aurora grew up in a family of wizards, and she was attending California Private School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. She lived in L.A. and loved to go ride her broom. Mr. and Mrs. Newman were not her real parents, they had told her when he was ten. She had been adopted but they would not tell her anything about her parents. So Aurora let it go and sat thinking what she could do for her Birthday today. She was turning 15 and didn't know what to do.
Her mother, Karlie Newman, walked in and sat down next to her.
"Happy Birthday honey! Today we have lots of surprises for you!"
"Cool what are we going to do today?"
"Well first we have a serious matter to discus. Aurora I know we never really talked to you about your blood parents, but I will tell you something. They day we got you, you were a week old. Your father gave us a letter and told us to give it to you on your 15th birthday. Well here is the letter. We have not read it so we do not know what it is going to tell you."
Aurora stared at the letter some how knowing if she read it, it would change her life forever. She slowly reached over and took the letter from her mothers hand. She opened it and began to read:
Dear Aurora,
We are very sorry we could not raise you. If you are reading this it means we are dead. Your mother and I love you very much and we hope the Newman's raised you well. If they did not tell you, you have a twin brother names Harry. We couldn't save him but we new we could save you. He might be alive but we do not know. We know you are in America but we would like it if you could come to school in London England. This is where you were born and lived for the short time we had you. Since this is your fifteenth birthday we asked Albus Dumbledore the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to send you a letter asking if you will come as a exchange student. If Harry is alive he will be there in fifth year.
Aurora one of the main reasons I wanted to send you this letter is so that you can learn who you are. The founders of Hogwarts, Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, and Rowena Ravenclaw, and Merlin himself are you ancestors. You might notice that starting today you will develop strange powers that you didn't have before. Aurora we want you to go to Hogwarts not only to be home but also to learn more about them and how to use them. I wish I could talk to you more but Harry is crying.
With all my love,
James and Lily Potter

Aurora read the letter three times after that to make sure she got it all in. Suddenly an owl flew in the kitchen window, and Chris Newman walked over to take the letter.
"It is for you honey" Chris said handing the letter to Aurora.
Aurora took the letter and opened it:

Dear Miss Aurora Newman/Potter,
I am please to inform you that Hogwarts is accepting exchange students. Your father James Potter asked me to bring you to Hogwarts 15 years ago. Since you most likely don't know your brother, Harry Potter, is here. Term starts on September 1st, we await your reply no later then August 31st.
Headmaster Dumbledore

"They want me to go to Hogwarts!" Aurora exclaimed, "They said I have a twin brother named Harry, and my real last name is Potter."
"They want you to go to Hogwarts?" Karlie asked
"Yeah, and.....I want to go." Aurora replied
