Chapter 1- It's a Joke right?
Lily Evans woke to the sound of her buzzing alarm clock. She reached her hand out from under her blanket and slammed her hand down on the top of the alarm to make it stop buzzing. She peeked her head out and looked at the clock.
"6:01? Ugh!" she moaned.
Still, very reluctantly, she got up and showered. She applied the small amount of make-up to her face that she did every day. She brushed her "a little past her shoulder" length fiery red hair and curled it slightly. Her emerald green eyes shone with the little bits of make-up that she did put on. All in all, she was very pretty for a ten year old. Then something hit her. She ran down the stairs yelling.
"IT'S MY BIRTHDAY, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! I'M 11!"
"Lily dear, please don't shout that loud! and Happy Birthday too!"
Everyone celebrated her birthday, with parties and presents and even varies cakes. She had a few friends spending the night. Two of them still ten and one already 11. The four girls loved to run around the house playing "little kid games" as her older sister Petunia called them. Petunia was 14 at the time and seemed to *hate* Lily with a passion. Why no one knew, not even Petunia seemed to know. Anyways, the four girls spent hours running around playing hide-and-seek, tag, and anything so that they could run around and scream in the huge 4-story house that belonged to the Evans'.
At 8:01 that night, the official time Lily was born, and owl flew in from the kitchen window were all the girls were sitting. Petunia screamed, which was indeed more of a shrill then a scream. The owl flew straight to Lily, dropped a letter in front of her and flew back out the window. Lily carefully turned the letter over to open it but looked over at her friends first. Two of them, Kate and Lydia, were watching very intently, while Jennifer, had her eyes wide open in shock.
"Jen? Are you OK?"
"What? Oh, Yeah I'm fine, it's just, just, Lily? Open the letter."
Lily did just that. She opened very carefully, so that she didn't rip the seal holding the top of the envelope to the bottom, which was an H bordered by 4 animals; a snake, lion, badger, and eagle. She took the letter out of the envelope and read the letter. She had about the same look on her face as Jen had had on hers a few minutes ago. Jen knowing what the letter held looked quite shocked and happy at the same time. Kate and Lydia however had a look of curiosity on there faces.
"What is it Lil'?"
"Can I see? Please?"
Lily was still in shock from what she just read. . Lily was quite aware that Kate and Lydia wanted to see the letter but she couldn't answer. Jen was the only one not asking questions, wanting to see the letter, asking if Lily was OK. Then very quietly and cautiously Lily asked said one thing.
"It's a Joke, right?"
Jen was the one to answer her. She was the only one who even knew about what the letter contained. Jen had been hoping Lyd, or Kate, or Lily would get one of those letters on their birthday. She had gotten one and realized that she wouldn't know anyone. She wished every night that one of those three would get one, she was after all the first one to turn 11. But when she saw the owl come flying in, straight towards Lily, she was shocked, happy, but shocked.
"No Lil', It's not a Joke"
"I-I-It has to be"
"It's not, I got one too"
"And your going?"
But Jen didn't have time to answer before Lydia screamed out something.
"What in the world are you two talking about? Going where?"
"Um.."
Kate was faster than either Jen or Lily and snatched the letter and read it. But what she read wasn't anything like she had expected. Her eyes widened very much like Lily's had. Lydia grabbed the letter from Kate and read. Her eyes too, opened with shock. Lily's eyes still were very much wider then they normally where, seeing as she still hadn't gotten over the shock. Jen looked very much like the other three, shocked thought, not by what she had read, or rather hadn't read, but that she wouldn't be going alone. She had a friend that would stick by her side no matter what.
At that Lily's mother, Rose Evans, walked in.
"What on earth happened to you girls?" she questioned "And what happened to Petunia?"
They all looked over at Petunia who was sitting over in the corner still shaking and whimpering because of the owl. Lydia picked up the letter and handed it to Mrs. Evans.
"I think you should read this"
Rose took the letter from Lydia and read. She came out with one reply.
"This is a Joke, right?"
