The day had finally arrived. The day I'd go to Hogwarts. I hop out of bed, get dressed, I head to the bathroom to attempt to tame my mane of medium length black hair, and with success, i look at my slightly goofy face for a moment, and finally head to the kitchen, only to be greeted by my father, Severus Snape, who was reading. And no, I'm not his actual daughter. He adopted me when my parents died. I still look a lot like him though, except for my freckles and piercing blue and green eyes.
"Hey dad."
"Good morning, Cecilia."
He looked up from his book and smiled at me. "Are you ready for your first day at Hogwarts?""You bet! My trunk is already ready to go!" I say excitedly.
"Good. Are you planning on taking Charcoal with you?"
"Yep!" I said as my little black kitten purred and rubbed against my feet.
Charcoal is my lovely black cat, also known as my best friend. I never really get out of the house much. Mostly because I hate all the talk of "the chosen one". My dad and I have that in common. I never liked the hype he got. My parents got killed too, and you don't see anyone talking about that, not even my adoptive dad.My dad interrupted my thoughts when he said, "Alright, Lets head out. We don't want to miss the train."
"Okay dad" I say as I grab Charcoal and hold dad's hand. I squeeze it somewhat tightly because I can get really nervous before apperating.
A woosh and a blink later, I open my eyes to a busy and crowded train station. I'm not surprised nobody noticed us appearing out of nowhere, the platform was packed with people.
As we walked through the crowded station, I began to remember my adventure when I was shopping the day before.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm so excited. Dad left me to go shop on my own, says it gives me responsibility for myself, and he trusts me....
which may or may not have been the right decision to make
I ended up buying a cat...
whoops....
Holding my kitten close, I noticed other witches and wizards gawking at the shiny and new Nibus 2000.
Quittich has always been interesting to me, but I've never been the sporty type. Although, I do like to win.
After a little bit longer of searching for the items on my list, I accidentally collided with someone.
"watch it-!", they said.
My tower of books and other supplies fell the the ground. My kitten was safe in my bag I had brought with me
"I-i'm sorry..." I said
I was picking up my stuff, and i could feel him looking at me. His eyes were piercing into my skull. He bent down to help pick up my things.
"t-thank-"
I looked up and he had already started walking away. He didn't leave enough time for me to say thanks or even ask his name.
What an interesting character...I wonder if he's going to Hogwarts too?
I eventually found the last thing on my list, and met up with dad, very ready to go home.
He wasn't too pleased about my new furry friend...but was okay with keeping him as long as he got to name him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
" Cecilia!! We're here!"
I take a moment to realize what he said.
"Woohoo!! Ok let's go!!"
We reach the barrier between platforms 9 and 10. I looked at my dad who nodded, I closed my eyes and I ran. I felt a rush or energy flow through me as i passed through the barrier. I open my eyes to see a huge train labeled,"The Hogwarts Express" and a station packed with excited students. I suddenly see a familiar platinum-blonde headed figure, and I freeze in shock.
it's him.
