It was a full year before Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry after the epic battle between the Order and the Deatheaters. Since then, the school was cleaned, and fixed. Teachers were either brought back, or hired, and students, new and old, were sent letters from Headmaster McGonagall, inviting them to come take classes at Hogwarts.
The Allgoods were shocked when they received the letter. They were more shocked about that then the owl which had delivered it. Patricia and Marcus Allgood knew of the battle at Hogwarts, they read it in The Daily Prophet, but they almost never expected it to open again after that. They looked at their daughter, Alexandra “Lexi” Allgood, who was lying on her stomach, reading a book. They explained to her what had happened at Hogwarts, and what she wanted to do. The eleven year old bit her lip, and then she made her choice.
That choice was the reason she was sitting on the Hogwarts Express, already dressed in her cloak and uniform. She wore a pair of black arm warmers on her arms, and a pair of glasses on her face. Through the glasses, a pair of brown eyes shone of excitement and an intense nervousness. She was worried as well, what if she didn’t fit in, what if nothing went right, what if she couldn’t find a magic she was good at. She tried to push those thoughts away though, and she decided to stand up and stretch. She was a bit short for eleven, and unless she got really lucky, it would probably be that way the rest of her life, but she didn’t mind all that much. She was alone in that particular carriage. There were so few students going to Hogwarts that year, that there were quite a few carriages that only had one or two students in them. She looked at the door, and she opened it. She couldn’t sit down and feel all worried about what would happen in the future, she had to take a walk. She took a deep breath, and left the secrecy of the carriage, and started walking the length of the train.
