Angelique was 14 years old, she lived in Paris France and she was very
pretty but a bit too involved in her dreams and fantasy books. She hadn't
very many friends, except for a girl named Lafayette, a girl with thick
black glasses and dark brown hair. Angelique did not really believe she was
beautiful. She never really thought about it. Angelique was a pretty girl
though although she did not know and none of the other kids at school
seemed to notice her. She had medium length light brown hair and hazel
eyes. Angelique was sitting at a table with her friend Lafayette when a
popular girl her age walked by and blurted out a remark. But she was used
to it. It wasn't as bad as other things people have said to her.
It was the last day of school. Angelique had received her yearbook and she
had no more than twelve signatures by the end of the day. Her friend
Lafayette had signed her yearbook as well as her teachers and a few kids
from drama club and a kid who wrote "keep up the daydreaming. Hopefully
you'll become a fairy and get a pet unicorn." This offended her but she
ignored it. She walked home that afternoon. She was glad it was summer. Her
and her father would be visiting England that summer, and then when she
comes back she will spend the rest of the summer with Lafayette. Early the
next morning her and her father headed for England. They stopped in London
and decided to take the train to Surrey.
Angelique walked with her father and saw some strange looking figures.
People in robes and pointed hats, It was the most peculiar thing she had
ever imagined. She saw many boys and girls around her age wearing robes and
pushing trolleys with owls and other pets and a trunk on it too. She was
looking at a red haired family all dressed in shabby robes walking in a
group. Except for two red headed twins leading the way a little too far
ahead. She was walking and watching at the same time as they passed. They
were a little behind her and she couldn't help nut notice a boy walking
with them who stood out because he did not have red hair like the others
but he had messy dark brown hair and round glasses and a strange scar
almost in the shape of a lightening bolt on his forehead when suddenly she
crashed into a wall. But what she did not know was that she did not really
crash but she walked through platforms 9 and 10 and ended up in a
completely different place, which was now surrounded by the strangely
dressed people.
