Magic
Julia walked outside, carrying her things with her. She came to Mr. Davis' car, a sporty little black one, and put her things in the back. Julia climbed in and thought how roomy it was. Of course, now she knew it had to be magically expanded, but she couldn't believe she had never noticed. Kitty got in next to her and gave her a brief smile.
Julia sat for a while, looking at the passing scenery and started, "Where are we-" Julia was cut off. The car had started down the road and had picked up speed. They had just gone through a tunnel and when the reemerged on the other side, they were parked in front of a large, white, stone building. Julia's mouth hung open. "Wh- where are we?"
"The Ministry of Magic in the United Kingdom," her best friend's father replied, a bit less severe than before.
Julia got out of the car "But that's impossible! We just went through- How did we- There was no water- I- Europe?!" Julia was flustered badly. "How?"
"Magic," Kitty supplied. Of course, how silly of her. Julia needed to learn that magic was most likely the answer to all of her questions. The thing that troubled her was being in another country.
"How come we aren't in America?" Julia wanted to know. "Why do we have to go all the way to England?"
At this, Mr. Davis looked at her with an odd expression upon his face. "The US branch of the Ministry is... under investigation," he said after a while. "Besides, Julia, the Ministry in England is better suited for your case."
'My case?' Julia wondered to herself. 'I must be a whole lot different than I thought. I'm even weird by magic standards.' She followed Kitty and Mr. Davis into the huge building. She looked around; the place seemed old and had a magical quality to it. Tall columns rose from everywhere and anywhere without any plausible reason Julia could think of. She walked down the long corridor with the older wizard's robes flapping into her face. Julia's head hurt, this was all so weird.
"Here we are," Mr. Davis announced. Julia looked around. There were a few other doors in the hall, but they were hardly noticeable compared to the one they stood in front of. There was this massive, wooden entryway just asking to be entered, so they went in. On the other side of the door were a small little desk and a young woman behind it. Her hair was sticking up from stress.
"James, thank Merlin you're here. The whole department has been in an uproar over her. I've been doing so much paperwork my head is spinning!" Kitty's father exchanged a few words with the witch, nodded and went through another door. Kitty gave her best friend a comforting look before following her father once more. Julia went along as well.
After going through several more doors and taking quite a few more turns, they ended up in a room with padded walls. A table sat in the middle with various objects. Julia groaned. "They're going to put me away before I even get my driver's license!" she exclaimed.
Kitty laughed and so did her father. "We're just doing some tests, Julia. Relax. We'll ask you a few questions and then we'll test your powers." Julia looked a little relieved, but did not exactly like being in a padded room.
A/N- Alright, relax. I was going to write more this chapter, but I didn't. So there. :P You can't make me! "Questions" is the next chapter...
