The Cottage

I walk to the door in my deserted house. I put on my old, worn, black boots and open the door. Again, there's no sun. I run out into the huge field and lay down on the soft grass.

I guess I'm staying here for the day, I think. 

As I lay there the sun starts to appear. I guess I should say who I am.

My name is Beatrice Everbow, I'm fifteen years old and I live by myself in the countryside. I don't have many friends, which is good in a way since I prefer my own company. But something strange is I can speak to animals, they come up to me and... I can feel them talking to me. I talk back and they seem to... understand. It's strange... I don't tell people about it now because everyone things I'm delusional, got something wrong with me.

 I'm also a metamorphmagus, I can change my appearance at will. But I rarely do that. I also have a dog, Casper, but he usually goes off and does his own thing, we communicate telepathically sometimes, except he doesn't speak English, just makes noises which I can understand as words. I go to Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where I'm  a Gryffindor.

 I have a few friends there, I'm more of a loner though, everyone is in their own groups and my friends are closer to each other, I'm usually by myself. There's one girl, Skye, that I talk to sometimes but not much. There's Sam, too, but again, I don't talk to her much either. 

I guess I fell asleep, because when once again realise my surroundings, it looks like it's evening. I get up and go back to my house. I get a box of pizza from last night out of the fridge and sit down at the table. I begin to eat then I suddenly sense someone else's presence. I'm not alone.

I fall on the ground, everything's a blur. Faintly, I see a shadow on the wall.

Leave.
