This is Chapter one of the fic, the perspective changes to my normal perspective, which i suppose is third person perspective. I hope the prologue gave you an appetite for the rest of the fic, bear with it though, it starts off rather slow.

Chapter 1

Katherine Stanford was not expecting an owl rapping on her window sill at 2.30 in the morning, nor what she expecting it to be holding a letter from Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, although her father had expected this from the moment she was born. Kat, as she was known by all those close to her, was a half blood.

Her father had neglected to mention the fact that he was a wizard to his wife. She believed that he worked a 9-5 job at the local council, when in actual fact he worked at the ministry of magic, in the department of magical games and sports. Trevor Stanford was worried about his wife's nervous disposition, and as such had not mentioned a word to her. He was right to worry as when he turned the tea pot into a mouse to prove that magic does exist his wife fainted and was out cold for an hour, before coming round and not uttering a word to him for the next week.

Kat, on the other hand, took to the revelation happily. She smiled all through her fathers explanation that there were witches and wizards who coexisted with muggles in the world. She smiled even more when her father showed her Quidditch for the first time.

Father and daughter attended a match between Wimbourne wasps and the Appleby Arrows at the start of august. Kat's mother refused to attend on account of her hating sport and magic, so going, as she put it, would be the stupidest thing she'd ever do. As her father carefully explained the rules to her, Kat found that she had begun to love the sport and its fast paced action. Over the rest of the summer she also found that she also came to love the arrows almost as much as her father, who had been an avid fan since he was a boy.

On a sunny morning towards the end of august Trevor took Kat to Diagon ally. As she walked past Quality Quidditch Supplies she stopped.

"Dad, can I have a broom?" She said without taking her eyes off the comet 240 in the window.

"Kat," he sighed, "you know that you're not allowed one in the first year, when are you going to fly it? Brooms are very expensive, maybe next year I'll get you one. Until then you can always use my old one."

"But it's a cleansweep 2…It's older than you."

"Trevor Stanford, you still haven't got rid of that old broom of yours? That's shocking. It flys slower than I run."

Trevor laughed at his old friend and classmate, "If it flew slower than you run Ludo, it'd be going backwards!"

Ludo Bagman closed the door of Quality Quidditch Supplies behind him before mock glaring at Trevor. Then he laughed, "Trevor you'd do well to remember that The Wasps beat The Arrows the other week."

Kat pursed her lips and looked at Ludo, "That's only because their beater hit our seeker round the face. We'll win the next match easily."

His laugh boomed around the street causing a few people to look in their direction. "I take it you're Trevor's daughter? You've obviously inherited his love of the arrows, to the point of making silly excuses for their losses." He winked at Kat. "I assure you, I didn't mean to hit Ed Heath round the face. He flew into my bat." Kat looked sheepish and turned her eyes to the ground. Ludo laughed again, and clapped her on the back. "Don't worry your father would have probably said the same thing to me. Anyways, I best be off before I get mobbed like I did after the match. I'll get you some tickets for the next wasps match Trev, it looks like we're gonna win the league this year, It'd do you good to support a winning team."

Kat laughed, "As if. Arrows are blatantly going to win this season. We're only 30 points behind you."

"I'll tell you what, if The Arrows win this season, I'll give you my broom."

"And if they don't?" Asked Trevor

"Well then, let's see. Trevor has to go to work for a whole week wearing Wasps robes, and saying that you've started supporting them, and that the Arrows are rubbish."

Trevor glanced at his daughter before nodding. Kat held out her hand and Ludo shook it. "It's a deal" she said.

"You two are both as bad as each other." Ludo laughed as he signed a piece of paper a fan had thrust his way.

"See you later Ludo." Said Trevor, then walked down the street with his daughter. "I hope that you're going to be right, Kat. I really don't want to have to go into work wearing wasp robes."

"Does he really play for Wasps dad?"

"Yeah, and he plays for England too. He's a very talented player."

"Should I not have said anything?" she said quietly

"Kat, you're very like me" He sighed, then put his arm round his daughter. "Ludo was right, If you hadn't said anything, then I would have done. We have a healthy rivalry, because we're both very passionate about our Quidditch. Who ever looses usually gets it. It was the same all through out school. Now chin up you, we're going to go and get you some books."

Hope that was alright for a first chapter, it wasn't really very riveting….so I'm sorry about that….But hopefully next one will be soon, as im really enjoying writing this.
