Disclaimer- JK Rowling has all rights to Harry Potter. I only own the character of Kate, and the plot of this story. 

Kate Aberdeen stared out of the limousine window to the passing scenery. True, England was beautiful, but it was nothing like her beloved New York. Her mind wandered through the events of the past week.

There are no castles in America, but Kate's house was certainly large enough to be a castle. It was during one of those lovely days in which summers fresh green leaves turn into a crisp gold color that her parents sat down to talk with her.

Kate's parents, who were quite wealthy and powerful, decided that they were drawing a bit too much attention to themselves here in New York. They were the only known death eaters in America. The wizarding world did not know this, but the authorities were certainly about to figure it out.

In an attempt to flee from the law, her parents decided to move to England. Their friends, who were death eaters as well, had assured them that England was the place to be while the wizarding world was on the brink of war. England had the proper society, where Kate's parents could be among other death eaters.

For Kate, there was a large wizarding school of great repute. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was well known for its vastness. However, Kate's parents were a bit reluctant to send her there for a variety of different reasons.

First of all, the headmaster of the school, Albus Dumbledore, was a mudblood lover who allowed all sorts of filth into the school. Also, the notorious Harry Potter went to Hogwarts. According to her parents, Harry Potter was a traitor to all of wizard kind. Luckily, there was a clique of proper pure blood students that were all sorted into a house called Slytherin.

Her parents told her that she would fit in perfectly in Slytherin. Unfortunately, Kate was not looking forward to being in Slytherin. She did not want to be stuck with a bunch of stuck up snobs. Little did her parents know that she hated their take on life.

She was brought up to believe that muggles were horrible, filthy beings, that her parents didn't think even qualified for being people. Mudbloods were almost as bad as muggles. The precious world of wizards was being polluted by such low mudbloods. There were now only an elite few who were pure enough.

Once, after getting in a fight with her parents, Kate decided to go into the muggle part of New York City. Her parents would have had a fit if they knew where she was. It was then that Kate realized that muggles weren't that bad. In fact, they seemed to be quite smart for never using magic.

When her parent told her that they were moving to England, Kate was in shock. She had many friends here in New York. She went to a school for pure bloods, where she didn't want to leave. Her best friend, Meg, was not snobby, but there were plenty of girls at the school who were. However, none of the other girls dared to get on Kate's bad side. For the Aberdeen's were the most powerful and influential wizard family in all of America.

Now she was moving to a new school in a new country where she knew no one. It was any teenager's nightmare. Kate was surprised when her parents decided to take a plane and their private limo instead of floo powder. That was one good thing about them. Where most of the other girls parents thought that using muggle contraptions such as cars and airplanes were a disgrace to any pure blood who used them, Kate's parents thought that limousine's and private jets were quite luxurious.

Kate's thoughts returned to the present when the limousine stopped suddenly. She glanced out of the tinted window to see where they had arrived. There, in front of her stood a very large mansion. This was to be her new home.
