Authors Note: As much as I'd like to admit that I own Harry Potter and all the fabulous characters in the book, I do not. They all belong to the Brilliant mind of Jo Rowling, except for my own, OC characters.
When her mother found out about the glass figurines, she sent Bray to her room, and went tearfully to sweep up the glass. Since Bray has been the only one in the hall, she was immediately accused of the crime, even though Kitty had explained what had occurred. Her mother was still angry, and that night at dinner, when she had told her husband, his eyes grew wide, and sparked. As soon as the spark shone it died, and the family ate in silence.
The next morning, Bray lay on her bed, starring at the ceiling. The Lovett's cat, Mox, lay on her stomach, purring. She still mused about what had happened, and as hard as she though about it, could not come up with an explanation.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Bray yelled, "Come in, Molly"
"How'd you know it was me?" Molly asked, opening the door and standing there.
Bray shrugged, and sat up, pushing the cat of her stomach.
"Well, um…mum and dad want you downstairs" Molly told her, glancing behind her at the air "Some weird man is here asking about you"
"What?" that caught her attention, and she followed her sister to the downstairs.
"Braylyn, sit down, this man would like to speak with you" Her father said, with a half-smile on his face. Her mother looked worried, and kept glancing at her husband, the man, and her youngest daughter.
As Bray sat, she turned her attention to the man. 'Very odd' she thought to herself as she studied his appearance. He had on a powder blue, stripped suit, with golden colored toggles. He wore dark, leather-looking boots, and the tie that accompanied the suit looked to be sparkling with shooting stars, that actually looked like they moved. She finally settled on his face, and discovered a pleasant one, with a crooked nose, half-moon spectacles, shining blue eyes and a kind smile.
"Hello, Braylyn, My name is Albus Dumbledore, and I have something for you". He pulled out a letter from a pocket inside his suit jacket, and handed to her.
Bray noticed her mother shoot a worried glance at her father. She accepted the letter, carefully opening it, and unfolding the odd paper.

She reread the letter, and gazed up dumbly at the bunch of them "Wha…how…when…huh!?!?"
