Hey Everyone. This is my first story. Sorry if it is not very good. Here goes.
Eleven year old Lily Evans stared into her closet with disgust. School was starting in 4 weeks and she hadn=t even been shopping for new clothes. She ran downstairs to tell her mum that they needed to go soon, but stopped when she saw an owl at the door. She thought this was odd, but opened the door and let it in. The owl dropped a letter out of its beak and then flew back out the door. Lily picked up the letter and went to the kitchen to show her mum. It was addressed to her, but it didn=t just have her address on the envelope, it had this:
Lily Evans
Blue Bedroom on the left
The Evans Estate
London England
AWow, that is odd,@ she thought to herself, A I wonder what it is.@ She proceeded to the kitchen and found her mum at the sink doing dishes. AHi honey,@ she said, Awhat do you have?@ AI don=t know, that is what I am just about to find out,@ she replied. She opened up the envelope and pulled out a letter and started to read:
Dear Miss Evans, We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment. Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31. Yours Sincerely,
Francine Mcgonagoll,
Deputy Headmistress
When she finished reading the letter she handed to her mother who read it and said, A This sounds weird, maybe it=s a prank.@ AI don=t think so mum, I think it is real,@ replied Lily, A Can we just go to this Diagon Alley place they talk about on the page of items and see?@ A I don=t know honey.@ APLEASE mom.@ AOkay, we can go and see, but if there is no such place then we will forget about this okay?@ A Alright, Thank you SO much, mum,@ she replied.
She skipped out of the room happily and decided to go swimming to celebrate. The Evans lived in a huge mansion just outside of London and were considered by most as rich. They didn=t like to flaunt their money, but they did have nicer things than some families. Lily didn=t act like she was rich. She was nice to everyone, and that is why she was so popular at her public school that she went to. AWell, that is going to change soon,@ she thought to herself. Sooner than she expected.
That night she went to bed early because she was so excited about going to this Diagon Alley place. As she slept she dreamed about what her new school would be like and she woke up that morning well rested and happy. She put on some capris and a shirt and combed through her auburn colored hair. She ran downstairs to tell her mum she was ready, and then her, Petunia, and her mum piled into their car and drove to the leaky cauldron, the pub that they were told got them into Diagon Alley. Lily couldn=t wait to get there. AI just hope this is real,@ she thought to herself as they drove around looking for the pub.
