Chapter 1
I sat in my dorm at Auradon Prep texting my boyfriend King Ben when something tapped on the window. I looked over to see an owl sitting on the window sill with a letter in its beak. "That's odd..." I mumbled. I walked over to the window and opened it. The owl promptly hopped inside the room and dropped the letter at my feet.
I bent down and picked up the letter. Once I saw that it was addressed to me, I opened it.

Dear Miss Mal,

Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Deputy Headmistress'
I looked up. This had to be some kind of joke. I texted Ben, asking if he had ever heard of a place called Hogwarts. He had heard of the school and encouraged me to go. The owl was still in my dorm. I grabbed a piece of paper and wrote my reply to Hogwarts telling them that I would go.
-------------------one week later-------------------
I met Professor McGonagall in London so that I could buy the supplies needed for Hogwarts. I looked at my list.

I looked at the professor. "Where could we possibly find any of this stuff?" I asked.
"Why, in Diagon Alley of course." She smiled. Professor McGonagall led me through a pub I didn't even notice before called the Leaky Cauldron and led me out back. She took out her wand and tapped a specific pattern onto the brick wall. The brick wall opened up to reveal a shopping area filled with people in robes.
------------------a few hours later------------------
Once the shopping was done I went back to Auradon. In a few months I would leave to go to Hogwarts. It was all so exciting.
A/n: So, I know this isn't the best, but if you have any ideas or comments I'd love to hear them.
