The Witch Of Ravenclaw

Birthday and Wizards?

So guess what? That's right today is the day I turn 7 years old, my birthday. A lot has happened since the incident at the playground. After what happened I guess the girls who bullied me spread a warped version of the story. They said that I was a freak and that I made the birds attack them. That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. How will I be able to control a flock of birds. I mean they could have said I blew a whistle and the birds came, that would have been realistic. Anyways, as expected in a school full of elementary students it spread like wild fire. Though here's the kicker, they actually believed it. It was to much work to fix the rumor. Plus why would I? But, not everything worked out how it should have because of all things my aunt caught wind of the rumor. Yeah, she was mad. She asked why I didn't tell her and then stormed to the school's main office. She complained and asked them to do something or at least punish the kids but, they said there was nothing they could do to the children. So when I got home I had a chat with my Aunt and Uncle.

[Avalon, we need to have a chat with you.] Uncle

[Yeah, do you still want to go to school? You might mi-] Aunt

[Nope.] MC

[Huh?] Aunt and Uncle

[I don't want to go to school anymore.] MC

[Why?] Aunt unconsciously asks

[Well if you haven't noticed the level they are teaching is way to low. You could give me a test from college and I could probably pass it. It's just boring.] MC

At this my Aunt and Uncle are shocked. I'm still staring at them expressionless.

[Why did you never tell us?] Uncle

[I didn't want to bother you guys.] MC

[It isn't a bother at all.] Aunt

She smiles warmly at me and pats my head. After that talk she explained to the school that I would be home schooled. It isn't lonely because I have my Aunt and Uncle teaching me. I just have to quickly finish my assigned work and then I can read. It's honestly the best. My parents were having trouble keeping me busy. It's like they were constantly trying to keep me happy. After all I get in a bad mood when I'm bored. So recently they started sending me to martial arts classes. It's fine but it's not as fun as reading. The incident at the playground happened on October 23, 1986. It is now February 18, 1987. It's my birthday! Well it's never really a big occasion, it's usually just some cake and I get a book as a present. But, today my Aunt and Uncle are acting really weird. They look...nervous? We finally all gather in the dining room to eat the cake and my Aunt and Uncle are fidgeting. That's when I realize the cake isn't at the table.

[Avalon, take a seat for a second.] Uncle

[You guys have been acting strange, are you going to tell me something?] MC
