Birds sang loudly as the early morning sun rose up into the sky, shedding light onto the Wings manor, inside everyone was asleep except for one very excited eleven year old.
The young witch Opal Wings sat on her bed watching the clock eagerly, it had just struck six o'clock, she'd been up for hours waiting, her mind filled with excitement as today was the day she would finally be going to Hogwarts. Her older sisters had told her everything she needed to know about the castle, and the professors and she just couldn't wait.
Her parents had told her she wasn't to wake anybody up until at least nine, but she didn't listen to the rules.
Opal jumped up from her bed, running out into the hallway, the candles had been charmed to flicker on immediately. The paintings of her ancestors awoke, groaning and complaining about the time, she continued down the dim hallway until she stopped at one of them.
The woman in the painting looked at her fondly, she had kind green eyes, when she smiled the lines on her face creased, her hair was grey and straw like, tucked away underneath a witches hat.
"Excited for your first year I see."
"Yes Grandma Peridot." Opal replied. "I've waited so long."
"I know you have, we had this exact conversation last night, deary."
Opal smiled up at her and continued down the hall before the door next to her creeped open.
"Opal, what did we say about waking up early?" her father said to her tiredly, his brown hair was untidy as he put his glasses on.
She gave him a grin. "My clock was upside down."
"What am I going to do with you." he sighed, rubbing her head. "Go back to bed before your mother finds out you're awake."
"I already know, Killian."
"Sorry mum!" Opal called out, making her way back to her bedroom, where her packed trunk lay by the foot of her bed. Her kitten, Bertie, curled up in a ball asleep on top of it.
Opal climbed back into bed covering herself with the blanket.
Only a couple more hours until she was on the Hogwarts Express.
