Ch.1
"Mail Call!" yelled a tall woman with cruel eyes as she watched the children of heaven's care orphanage run down the steps and stop in front of her. "Harp! Bell! James!" yelled the women as she called the names of people that had mail, "McFl-" the woman cut herself off as she studied the letter 'Why would that undeserving girl get mail?' she thought as a girl with emotionless blue eyes and shoulder length brown hair walked up.
"You have something for me Ms. Harper?" asked the girl.
"Why would I have mail for you brat," said Ms. Harper in a icy voice "Back to your rooms all of you Dinner will be served shortly, and McFlare you will get none." said Ms. Harper as the children went back upstairs.
McFlare went to her room and locked the door since she was never allowed in the dorms with the other children. "Why do they hate me so much," she asked herself out loud. "Because I know how to do strange things ever since I got here. That just got me into trouble." she answered herself as she went to lie in her bed and as she was about to fall asleep she heard a scratching noise at her window. Her room was small and the window was only big enough for a cat to get through. McFlare went over to her window and opened it to let in two small brown owls that flew in and landed on her bed. "Hello there if you want to stay you have to be quieter or Ms. Harper and her goons will come up here and take you away." Scolded McFlare, the owl's hooed their understanding. "What do you have there?" She asked when she noticed the letter's tied to the two owls, moved towards her bed and removed both letters, 'That's an odd seal to be on a back of a letter, and how in all the world do they know my first name?' McFlare thought as she studied the first letter that said Jessiana McFlare Of Heaven's Orphanage, USA. 'It should be renamed hell's orphanage.' Jessiana thought as she opened the letter.

'Cool! I might be able to get out of this hell hole, but where am I going to get this stuff at?' thought McFlare with hope showing in her eyes as she read the next letter that just had her name on it.
Dear Ms. McFlare,
It is my duty to inform you that there is a extra plane ticket in your acceptance letter to Hogwarts that reason is because we are sending someone to come and get you. Also to convince your caretaker to let you come to England. Please use one of the owls to deliver your letter and show this one to your caretaker. And please take note of the added book in your supply list.
Albus Dumbledore
Headmaster of Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry
'Yes! I'm definitely going to accept but I'm going to have to tell Ms. Harper' thought McFlare as a shiver ran down her spine at the thought of telling Ms. Harper, as she let one of the owls go. "I'll be back little owl," said McFlare to the little brown owl on her bed as she left her room heading towards Ms. Harper's office with the headmaster's letter.
McFlare walked quickly down the dark hallway that lead to Ms. Harper's office, not wanting to stay long in the hallway because it always freaked her out, 'I hope she agrees to this.' thought McFlare as she finally reached the office door, "Here goes." she said to herself quietly as she knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" yelled an icy voice. "McFlare, I need to talk to you about something." McFlare answered back, "Come in and you better have something worth while to tell me brat," said Ms. Harper in her icy voice again. McFlare opened the door and walked into the room and closed the door behind her.
"What do you need to tell me that's so important to interrupt my peace away from you?" said Ms. Harper with a glare, "I found this letter on my bed." answered McFlare while handing Ms. Harper the letter. Ms. Harper read the letter that was handed to her and set it on her desk, "So let me guess you want to go to this school?" asked Ms. Harper in a cold voice, "Yes I do and I think it would be worth your while to let me go because you won't see me again for a long time." stated McFlare in a confident voice, "True, but if you think that I'm going to give you any money that you need to buy things then you are gravely mistaken." said Ms. Harper with a evil smirk. "Thank you Ms. Harper" said McFlare with the thought of actually escaping the orphanage; happiness showed in her eyes before she masked it with indifference, unfortunately Ms. Harper noticed.
"I think it's time for a trip to the room," said Ms. Harper with an evil glint showing in her eyes. When McFlare heard that her eyes went wide with fear, she tried to run out of the office but Ms. Harper grabbed tightly on McFlare's arm and dragged her towards a small door that had a lock. Ms. Harper unlocked the door threw McFlare in and locked the door again, "And don't bother the spiders!" said Ms. Harper in a sarcastic voice before she walked off.
McFlare couldn't move to sit in a corner of the small room; she couldn't even kneel since the space was so small. With tears rolling down her face as she stood and listened to the sayings of "your worthless" or "no one cares for you" and other things echoed in the small room she was in. 'don't believe what your hearing, your finally going to leave this place, don't give up hope.' McFlare told her self as she stood in the small room. This went on for three hours before McFlare was told to go back to her room.
It was around eleven thirty when McFlare finally made it back to her room. " I have to write that letter to the headmaster." McFlare said as she collapsed in her bed forgetting that there was an owl in her room, until she heard a low hoot. "I'm fine little one but I need to write that letter." McFlare told the owl as she noticed the pen and paper. She took them and started writing the letter.
Dear Headmaster,
I accept going to Hogwarts, please send someone to come and get me soon.
McFlare
McFlare tied the letter with a piece a string to the owls leg, "Give this to the headmaster of Hogwarts." said McFlare before she collapsed on the bed again, the owl hooted with determination as it left the room, through the still open window. McFlare watched the bird leave as she fell asleep hoping she would be able to leave this place soon.
