Chapter 1: Friends and Strangers
I'm Anahi Dumbledore, the daughter of Aberforth Dumbledore and half blood. I never knew my uncle and aunt. I wish I did though, everyday. My father always regretted never having a good relationship with his brother, Albus. As the only living sibling of Albus Dumbledore, he was asked if he could be the headmaster of Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I believe he had said yes, but I'm not sure. Since I was a Dumbledore, most people knew my family but not much. I was in the Leaky Cauldron today, waiting while my dad was out delivering some strange box to the owner.
I was sitting at the table closest to the door to Diagon Alley, just in case. I was reading a book that Muggles read, it's was called Fablehaven. Eventually, I got tired of the book after twenty-five minutes past and I sat with my feet and head laying on the arm rests. Then, out of the blue, a man like shadow came swarming over me. I grabbed my wand, phoenix feather core, maple wood thirteen inches and slightly yielding.
I looked up and found a young man stand there, he was about a couple years older than me. He had black hair and bright blue eyes filled with wonder and bravery. He was wearing odd Muggle clothing. "What do you want?" I asked in a harsh tone that I never heard in myself before. "Sorry, what I meant to ask was why were you standing there?"
His blue eyes seem to glow brighter and he smiled. "I was just wondering who you were and why a fragile and beautiful creature like you would come to a place like this, were evil things lurk?" he said.
I felt myself blush and looked at him with eyes of fire. "I could ask you the same thing." I said strongly.
He smiled a daring smile and said, "Well, I asked you first."
"Dang it!!" I thought.
"Well I'm the daughter of Aberforth and I came here with my father." I said.
He smiled and said, "No wonder..."
"Now will you tell me who you are?" I asked strongly.
"My name is--" He began to say before he was interrupted by Aberforth.
"Anahi, darling, time to go."
"Coming!!" I said looking in the direction the voice came from.
And when I looked back, nothing was there.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Da, sorry to ask you, but what we're you doing there?" I asked him
He looked at me with tired eyes and smiled. "Well, why do you want to know?"
"Well, why shouldn't I know?" I asked.
"Its just something that will put you in a lot of trouble." he said, sighing.
"Okay, sorry I asked." I said.
When I returned home, all I could think of was the beautiful stranger. "Are you okay sweetie?" My dad asked, breaking my thoughts into a million tiny pieces.
"Huh?" I asked
"Are you okay?" He repeated.
"Yeah, I'm fine." I said, sighing. And that was how my day ended.

"Anahi, the post is here!" Father said
"Coming Da!!" I said as I finishing drawing in my room.
The drawing was my owl, Frosty, in a flying position in the cold air above. I slided on the railing of the stairs, just for a shortcut. Once I got to the bottom of the stairs, Aberforth gave me two letters. One was from Hogwarts, The School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and the other letter was from Albus Potter, a friend I made from Hogwarts once I got into Gryffindor.
Dear Anahi Dumbledore
Please note that the new school year will begin on September the first. The Hogwarts Express will leave from King's Cross station, Platform nine and three-quarters, at eleven o'clock.
Sincerely,
Professor A. Harris
"A Hogwarts Letter I see?" my father said, smiling.
I smiled back and looked at Al' s letter.
Dear Ana,
How are you today? My father was thinking of going to Diagon Alley next week on the twenty-eighth. As how much I want to met you, Rose as well wants come as well on the same day. So what, are you in? (I got some tricks to show and tell you and Rose) :)
From,
Albus
I smiled and asked, "Da, may we go to Diagon Alley on the twenty eighth?"
"Yes, but you have to wait a week." he said, looking at his letters.
"Okay, I'll be in my room if you need me." I told him as I went up to my room.
Once I got to my room, I was thinking about what to send to Al and Rose.
