Hey! This is about Penny! And incase you didn't know I'm squidscool, my twin, someoneorother123 and I are taking in turns to write this. And. Here is some trivia, where are merino sheep originally from?


Penny ran down the stairs, excited that her Hogwarts letter would come today, unlike most people, Penny wasn't afraid she would be a squib- please smart people like her don't have those problems. She heard her idiot of an owl come in and land on the dining room table in a clattering mess. She sprinted even harder to get to him over the large floor. She grinded to a halt at the table, and ripped the mail of the poor owls leg. She sorted through, ad, bill, Hogwarts letter. She tore open her letter, and let her eyes feast over the lovely sight she had been waiting to see.

Dear Miss Acker,,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.
Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.

Yours sincerely,

Professor Lydia Kaligaris,
Deputy Head Mistress.

She loved seeing this in writing, the words she had always wanted to see. She had proved wrong her idiotic half siblings, and she would go to Hogwarts. This had been what she had wanted, though she loved her dad, she hated her siblings and wanted to be as far away from them as possible. They didn't live at home but they were never far from her mind. Penny heard her dad yawning as he walked down the stairs.

He saw her and smiled, "Pennsylvania, what are you doing up? Wait, is that your Hogwarts letter?" Penny nodded, beaming at him, "Oh Penny, thats fantastic! But what will I do around her without you?" Her father walked over to her and gave her a hug.

They set the letter down on the dining table, and started to make bacon and eggs, Penny's favourite. Her dad told her he would do it, and that she can just relax.

"Dad, when are we going to Diagon Alley? We have until the 30th." Penny asked, trying to keep the excitement out of her voice. Diagon Ally was her favourite place in the world, and she really wanted to go.

"Well, today is the 22nd right? Have a look on the calendar, we will go if there is nothing on today, 'k sweetie?" Penny walked over to the calendar and examined it. Nothing on, it seemed like she would get to go today.

"Nothing, zero, zip, nil..." Penny trailed off. Her dad smiled at her, she beamed back and ran up stairs to call her friend, Rachel. She was positive she would have gotten her letter as well, given that penny doesn't hang around idiots, and only idiots don't get their letters. She half sprinted up her huge stairs, annoyed she didn't have her apple-coloured hair pulled back. She kept running and stopped as she approached her bedroom door. She walked in, grabbing her favourite hairband, with the bright blue bow. She walked over to her phone and speed dialled Rachel's number.

"Hey, did you get your letter?" Penny almost screeched down the line, as soon as she heard Rachel pick up.

"Yeah, but I also got a scholarship to... Beauxbatons." Rachel sounded hesitant, like she didn't want to offend Penny, but how could she not? All her life Penny had been out-done by Rachel, no matter how hard she tried and this was the final straw.

"Great, have fun, bye." Penny said, sarcasm dripping from her voice. She couldn't help making comments like these, she simply couldn't censor herself. She usually tries not to talk to much, so as not to make comments like these, but it rarely works. Whatever she thinks her mouth says, whether its mean, or, and more commonly, a correction. When someone says something wrong she automatically corrects them, she also deems them stupid. To prove to Penny that you are not dumb you must be a complete genius, this, Penny claims is the reason she only has one friend.

Penny walked back down stairs wondering why she didn't get a scholarship to another school in Europe, then figured it would probably be coming later.

"Pen, Rachel's mum called, she got a scholarship to Beauxbatons! Isn't that great! We really should've applied for one, I bet you would gotten it!" Her dad said, smiling at her, as he walked over to give her a hug.

"Of course! We didn't apply for a scholarship! That explains everything." Penny exclaimed, hugging her dad back.

"What does it explain, exactly?" Her dad questioned, a harsh tone in his voice. Though he loved her, he tried to discourage the way she thought she was quite superior to everyone.

"Ummm, nothing. Is breakfast ready?" Penny hastily said, she was scared of her father when his voice got all tense.

"Yes sweetie." He said, a warm smile on his face once again.

They sat down for breakfast, discussing things such as sending owls, classes and making friends. By the time they finished their conversation it was midday, and Penny was eager to get to Diagon Alley, realising would be the first time she went without her bullies of siblings. She ran upstairs to put on her favourite jeans and lucky T-shirt. She looked in the mirror, and saw a gleam in her brown, almond-shaped eyes, that was rarely there. She smiled, then ran down stairs.

Her father pulled the silver powder off the shelf and handed her a small pinch. She stepped forward, into the fire, dropping the powder and clearly pronouncing Diagon Alley.
