Alexa Morgan got back from school on a cold  December 16. "Mum I'm home!" She screamed, opening the door to the  fridge to make some food. Her mum was most likely not even home yet. She usually came home later than the norm. She sat down, not noticing the elf-like creature sitting across from her. "Hello, miss. I am Alba, the house elf." The creature said. In surprise, Alexa raised her head and fumbled back a bit, tilting her head and looking at the house elf  in wonder. "I...I'm Alexa. And...why are you here?" Alexa said slowly. "I'm sorry. Alba didn't means to frighten you. I is here to inform you that you have bean accepted in Wandwood. School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Alba said, giving a Alexa an envelope. Alexa slowly took it, still processing the words that just hit her. "But what....Alba?"  Alexa said, looking around her. The house elf had disappeared. "Who are you talking to, Alexa?" Alexa's mum came down the staircase. "Oh...mum, I thought you were still at...no one." Alexa quickly said. "What's that? In your hand? Is it for me?" Alexa's mum asked. Alexa shook her head no and darted to her room. 

She read it over for the third time now.: Dear Alexa,  we are very happy to says that you are accepted in Wandwood, school of witchcraft and wizardry. We will be starting first term on August 1st. Please bring all of the supplies listed below:

- two school uniforms (traditional black robes).

- wand

- black dragon skin boots

- an owl, ferret, frog, or cat.

- a cauldron

- School Book Pack (normally bought at Flourish and Blotts).

Now brooms will be allowed in the first year, sincerely Madam LeBrooke

Alexa had still been quite confused at to where to get all of these. The envelope came with a train ticket that said 'Platform 11' but there were only 10 platforms in GreenRail station. 'Mum is never really here. She'll never even realize I'm gone. I really have no choice, I'm picked on at school anyways.' Alexa thought. Since she had no father anymore, the other kids picked on her and called her names like 'fatherless Lexa' or 'No father Ninny'. This school sounded fun, so Alexa gave it a go. She tried to put all of this to rest now and go to sleep, but she heard a loud crack at the foot of her bed. "Hello Alba." Alexa smiled down and the house elf. "Hello Miss. Alba has come to give you your school equipment." Alba said, giving Alexa and suit case. "Thanks, Alba." Alexa smiled. Then Alba was gone in a crack. On July 30th, Alexa took her plan into action.
