Author's Note: Sorry that I haven't posted, but I've had a lot of homework, then my Social Studies teacher gave us an essay test that had two questions that we had to finish in forty minutes! I wrote four pages in that amount of time! I really do NOT like my S.S. teacher at all! By the way, to those who are wondering, I'm thirteen years old and in eighth grade. I just saw "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," and absolutely loved it! I'm so depressed. I want "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" to come out. Anyway, thank you to those who reviewed:
RedRaspberry- The reason I named her Trill is because I am really weird. It'd also because I had just read the book, "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," and one of the character's names was Trillian. I also used the name Trill in this paper that I had to write from the view of a golf ball. The golf ball's name was Trill. So, basically, one of my main characters is named after a golf ball and another character from a book. Isn't that so interesting?
Chibi-Chingo- You sound like a very hyper person. I like your story, "The Firewitch, the Lightning, and the Stag." Anyway, thanks for reviewing.
Shadow Moon- Thanks, and I have absolutely no idea why you liked my little rant before.
gothendergirl666- Sorry I didn't let you read it before, but you never asked! Anyway, you may want that to happen to you, but does the clothing and hair sound a bit familiar? Does it sound like any certain fantasy that a certain person has had? Of course it does. MINE!
Disclaimer: My Social Studies teacher told us that truth is the way that a person perceives it to be, so... "I own the Harry Potter characters! I own them! I own them!" Nope, didn't work, so I don't own them. Damn it!!!! *pouts*

"I'm sorry dear, but we could never tell you before!" replied Mrs. Destanya.
"Why not?" questioned Trill.
"Well, we got you from a private adoption. The man we adopted you from said that your parents were in trouble. You were such an adorable baby, and there was so much charm in you! We couldn't resist adopting you! So, even after the man said that your parents had gone into hiding, we still decided to keep you. It seemed as though you had some sort of spell over your father and I. So, after that, we took you in. However, there were still a few conditions that we had to accept. One was that your name was to be Trill. Another was that one day, when you were needed most desperately, you'd have to go to a special school in the U.K."
"What sort of a school are you talking about?"
"Well, I'm not exactly sure, but the man-"
"What did this man look like? What was his name?"
"The man had long white hair, and a beard in the same style. He wore a green cloak and high boots that looked of a strange material. He also had a British accent and acted very strange. For some reason, he kept on calling us muggles. Another thing that was really odd about him was that he was eating lemon drops, as though he had never had candy before. He even asked me if I wanted one! As for his name, I was getting to that, but I was suddenly interrupted by someone. Anyway, as I was going to say, he sends you father and I a letter every two years. The letters told us a little about why your parents left you with us. They also told us that the man's name is Albus Dumbledore, and he's the headmaster of the school that you'll be going to."
"You said that the letters told you why my parents went into hiding. Why did they?"
"Well, there was this man that was a sort of criminal that was after your parents. This man apparently killed people, so you and your family weren't safe, because this man wanted to kill you too. Wait- no-, he would've either killed you or used you for his own purposes."
"Just who is this person? And what do you mean by "his own purposes?"
"He was called Lord Voldemort. That's really all that I can tell you. Since you've obviously been revealed, you're probably going to have to go to that school. Albus Dumbledore will probably tell you all that you everything else."
"So, what am I?"
"You're a-"
Whooooosh!
An owl suddenly flew through the broken window. It had a letter in its talons, and looked as though it was expecting them to remove the letter. Trill carefully walked up to the owl, despite the warnings that her mother was giving her. She slowly took the letter from the owl and looked to see who it was addressed to. It said:
Miss Trill Destanya
The Darkest Bedroom
1734 Illinois Ave.
Aurora,
Illinois USA
"Go on dear, open it. This is probably about the school that you're going to be going to."
Trill slowly opened the letter to see what was inside. She quickly looked over it for the contents. She had to reread it to make sure that she completely understood what it was saying. Trill looked up at her mother, her face showing obvious shock on it.
"Mother, this says that I'm a witch! I apparently have to go to Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It also says that I have to owl back as soon as I can, telling them when I can go to get all my school stuff in Diagon Alley. What is this even talking about?! This letter says that I'm going to take a portkey to Diagon Alley after I am so totally lost. Explain."
"An owl is their, now your, way of sending a letter. You write a letter, then attach it to the talons of the owl. The owl then flies the letter to whoever it's addressed to. A portkey is something that I have no idea about. Simply send them a letter and say that you can go to Diagon Alley tomorrow morning at nine, our time. Is it okay if I let you go on by yourself? Just ask if they could have somebody help you around. Well, go on. Tell them that you can go to Hogwarts."
Trill carefully wrote out a letter that went like so:
I would be glad to go to Hogwarts. I can take a portkey to Diagon Alley tomorrow morning at 9:00 am, my time. Please have somebody take me to Diagon Alley, since my mother cannot come with me. By the way, what's a portkey?
She then tied it to the owl, who was waiting patiently. Now, all she had to do was wait for the answer.
