The school bell rang, announcing the end of the school day, and the end of the school year. All the kids came running out, jumping for joy. Among the kids was Adelle Dursley, more commonly known as Dell, running and whooping with the others. Taking a running start, Dell jumped into the air and did three summersault in the air, staying up for way too long, and coming down too gently. Kids whistled and clapped, and laughed, giving high fives to Dell and everybody congratulating each other for making it through yet another school year.

"How does she do that?" Vanessa Dursley asked her husband, Dudley Dursley.

"I have no idea." He replied, the one thing he, of all people, should have guessed not even popping into his dense mind.

Dell spotted her parents and waved to them, heading their way.

"See you guys later." Dell yelled to her friends, waving to them, as she reached her parents, a smile gracing her beautiful face as she reached her parents. Dell had really grown up to be a beautiful girl. Her long, flowing blond hair reached the midpoint of her back, and her bright blue eyes glowed with interest. Her face was beautiful, and soft, she was tall and thin, and a very beautiful young girl. When she reached her teen aged years her father would have a hard time keeping the boys away.

"Hello honey, you have a good last day?" Vanessa asked with a smile. Her black hair was pulled back from her face, and her eyes matched her daughters.

"Splendid." Dell said, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear that had fallen out of her ponytail. That piece never stayed up.

"Daddy," Dell said looking at her father as she slid into the backseat of the car, her parents sliding into the front.

"Yes, Dell?" Dudley asked, starting the car. If Dell was anything, it was a daddy's girl. She could get anything she wanted from her father, easily. Her mother wasn't as easy to persuade.

"Can we go to the ice cream parlour? Since it's the end of school and all?" She asked sweetly.

"I'm not sure." Dudley said, glancing at his wife, who already knew they'd be going, and just sat back in her seat, mouthing the words along with Dell as she spoke them. She had heard her daughter work so many times.

"Pwease, daddy." Dell said, giving her dad the puppy dog eyes. Those alone would have worked, but the pout she added with it perfected the look.

"Oh, well, OK, I guess we could, since it's the last day of school and all." Dudley easily gave in, glancing at Vanessa once more. She just smiled, shaking her head. Now, don't get the wrong idea, Dell wasn't a spoiled child. Yes, her father spoiled her, as he had been spoiled when he was a child, but her mother made sure she wasn't too spoiled, and was on the right road.

Dell gave a triumphant smile, and punched her hand into the air, as they made a left turn instead of the right that would take them home.

One week had passed since school had let out, and Dell was already bored of summer. She had hung out with her friends, which was surprisingly made up of mostly boys, to her father's dislike. She wasn't exactly a tomboy, but she hung out with a lot of boys, not liking a lot of the girls her age that went to her school, or lived close.

The Saturday morning burned bright as Dell walked into the kitchen to the smell of her mom making eggs and bacon. She kissed her father on the cheek, and wished him a good morning as she sat down on her spot, starting breakfast.

"Oh, there's the mailman, can you go get the mail, Dudley?" Vanessa asked, looking out the window.

Dudley, heaved himself up as he walked out of the kitchen, and into the hallway to get the mail. He grabbed it up, and looked through it as he went back to the kitchen.

"Oh, what do we have here?" Dudley asked as he came upon a letter.

"What is it daddy?" Dell asked, looking up at her father.

"Why, it's a letter for you my dear." Dudley replied, looking up.

"Oh, can I have it?" Dell asked, excited. Dudley started to hand it over, until he saw the crest on the back that sealed the letter shut. He froze, halfway through the transition, in shock. His face started to pale as he stared at the crest.

It was the Hogwarts sign.
