Ok before we get started I am not an ordinary eleven year old boy who lives with his mum and dad and his best friend who’s parents died in a car crash when he was six years old. Well I am the complete opposite! I am eleven years old but me, my best friend Joe and my family are witches and wizards and on the subject of Joe his parents did NOT die in a car crash but Serious Black killed them. luckily Joe managed to run to our house and told us what happened and that's all i can tell you but believe me it's a lot worse than you think!
I woke up really early on saturday morning. I think it was about half five but I was super excited because we were going to Longsands beach near Hogsmeade and we got to stay in a top of the range beach shack for a whole week! How good is that? I tiptoed over to Joe's bed and woke him up “Come on let’s pack our stuff now before Mum and Dad get up and i have decided to take blizzard” I whispered
“Ok, i will take buttons with me as well so blizzard has a friend to play with!” replied joe. Oh i forgot to mention blizzard is my new pet snowy owl and buttons is joe's barn owl they are both two weeks old and they are brothers even though they are different types of owl. We only got them two days ago!
At about ten o’clock my dad came through and told us to bring a bag with thirty galleons and 20 sickles “why do we have to bring our money?” asked joe
“You’ll see.” replied dad quickly. About ten minutes later we had all our luggage in the boot of the car. As I clambered in, I caught a glimpse of the house and thought I can't wait until we get to Longsands.
Every once in a while i would glance at the sea and just beg to be at Longsands instead of waiting another hour to get there! “How long is it until we get there,” I asked “I am getting really bored and really want to get mine and Joe's room ready so that we can run along the pier with the owls!”
“Only ten minutes.” replied mum
As we were unloading the car some kids were glaring at us and I heard them say “I detect that they will be going to hogwarts in september by the looks of their age.”. Joe and I sprinted through the beach shack and found a letter on our beds from Hogwarts “Mum, Dad, me and Joe have letters from Hogwarts on our beds!” I creamed
“We know, we put them there we brought them from the house, what did you think the money was for!”.
As soon as we had finished unpacking we let the owls out and ran along the beach to go to the pier with the owls flying beside us! “Mum put a spell on us so that we can breathe, see and be warm under the water please!” begged Joe “Ok then, aquos deflectose,” whispered mum whilst pointing her wand at us “i put the spell on blizzard and buttons!”
So off we went swimming under the blue ocean just waiting for another magical day by the seaside!
