A.N. I made another website. LoL. If you like animals please go to it! To get there, first go to my bio, then click on the website there. It's not the right one. When you get to the site, change the coolgurl_48 to blue_moon091. Oh, and I messed up with Serena's name. Her last name is supposed to be Moon.

Last Time:
"Seems good to me," Serena said, smiling. "Do you want to be friends?" she asked, sticking out her hand.
Lita smiled and shook her hand. "I would like that. Friends."
"Hey," Serena said suddenly. "Lunch is about to start, do you want to get some good seats?"
"I thought you'd never ask!"
They giggled and laughed on the way to the lunchroom.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Serena and Lita could be seen on the limb of the big oak tree every morning munching on their breakfast, talking.
Today's subject was about Serena and Harry's funny moments
"There was this one time, while Harry and I were walking home from school, it started to rain. Well, he tripped me and I almost fell into the mud when I grabbed him and," she started to grin, "well I sort of managed to flip him underneath me and he got muddy instead of me," Serena said, starting to giggle. Lita began to giggle also.
"Sounds like you had a lot of fun with your _friend_," Lita said, wiggling her eyebrows and grinning.
Serena blushed furiously. "I-I don't kno-know what you're tal-talking about," she said, her face as red as a tomato, and suddenly became interested with the ground.
"Of course you don't," Lita said, thick with sarcasm.
"Hey," Lita said, looking past Serena's shoulder at the sky, "What are those two dots?"
Serena stopped looking at the ground and instead looked at the sky. Indeed, there were two dots heading toward them, increasingly becoming larger. A few minutes later, they saw that the dots were owls.
They watched interested as the owls dropped two thick envelopes in the crook where the branch reached the trunk. Then, they flew away.
Serena, who was closest to the envelopes, slowly inched toward them and picked them up.
"That was strange," Lita commented, looking at envelopes. "I wonder what's in them?"
Serena shrugged and turned them around. "Hey! There's one for both of us," Serena said, handing Lita's hers.
Serena's envelope was addressed:
Miss S. Moon
The Crowded Room on the Second Floor
26 Ring Lane
The Orphanage
Surrey
It was filled with a heavy kind of parchment and was written in emerald ink
Serena turned over the letter to open it and noticed a strange crest. It had a lion, a badger, an eagle, and a snake surrounding a large letter H.
"Yours is the same as mine!" Lita exclaimed.
Serena nodded. "But how do they know where we sleep?" she asked, shuddering slightly despite the warm summer day.
Lita just shrugged. "So are you going to open it?"
Serena slowly nodded. "You know I'm as curious as a kitten!" Serena stated smiling.
Serena gently tore open the envelope and read the heavy, yellowish parchment:

Serena sat rigid with shock. "Lita?" she whispered.
"Hm?" came Lita's soft reply.
"Is this what I think it is?"
"If yours is the same as mine."
Serena looked at Lita. "Are we really witches? Or is this some stupid joke by one of the bullies?"
Lita snorted. "If they were smart enough!"
Serena giggled. "But, what do they mean 'we await your owl'?"
As if on cue, the owls that had brought them their letters came back and landed on the branch in front of them and stuck out their feet.
Serena blinked. "Got a pen?"
Lita nodded and searched her pockets. She took out an emerald pen with a pink Jupiter sign on it.
"Cool pen!" Serena squealed. "Where'd you get it?"
"My mother gave it to me," Lita said while tearing off some of the parchment. Serena watched as she wrote a reply:
I, Lita Kino, accept your invitation to be a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
She handed the pen over to Serena who had her scrap of parchment ready. She scribbled:
I, Serena Moon, accept your invitation to be a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Serena returned the pen to Lita.
"Now what?" Lita asked. The owls shook their feet at them. Shrugging at each other, they handed their replies to the owls, who grabbed them in their claws and took off.
"Well, I guess this explains all of the strange stuff that has been happening to us," Lita said, watching the owls fly off until she could no longer see them.
"Let's see. Today is July 29, right?" Serena asked. Lita nodded. "So, how about we go get our supplies tomorrow? I need to buy Harry a birthday present, too."
"Just, where is the Leaky Cauldron?" Lita questioned, looking over her letter.
"I don't know. Uh oh," Serena said.
"What?"
"How are we going to get to London?"
Lita looked thoughtful for a moment. "Maybe we could ask the headmistress to take us to London?"
"It's worth a try."
As they climbed down the tree, something fell on top of their heads.
"OW!" they both cried out.
Looking down, they saw a silver and an emerald pouch. Serena picked up the silver one and Lita picked up the emerald one.
Serena opened her pouch and found a small, silver key with pink jewels embedded in it and a note. Lita opened her pouch and also found a small, silver key with green jewels embedded in it and a note.
Their notes read:
This key is used to open your vault at Gringotts, the wizard bank.
"Wizards have a bank?" They both said.
Walking into the orphanage, they climbed the stairs to the headmistress's office. Gently knocking on the door, they heard her say, "Come in."
The headmistress was a 30 year old woman with a stern face and kind eyes. Looking up from her papers, she asked, "Yes? Do you girls need anything?"
Serena nodded and asked, "Ma'am, can we ask you a favor?"
She nodded, "Certainly."
"Well, is it okay if you drove us to London tomorrow? We got some letters for a school and we need to buy the supplies," Lita said, choosing her words carefully, so as to not let her know that they needed supplies for a school for witches.
The headmistress mentally smiled, already knowing that they were witches.
Serena added, "I also need to buy a present for my friend's birthday."
The headmistress nodded, smiling. "Of course. Is it okay if I drop you off and come back for you in about two hours?"
Serena nodded her head enthusiastically. "Yes!," she said, "That would be great!"
"Thank you, Ma'am!" They both said before closing the door.
The headmistress sighed, shaking her head while putting on her reading glasses and returning to her work.
Squeals of delight could be heard throughout the orphanage for the rest of the day.
