Lizzie Peregrine was bored. So bored she actually started doing chores to keep from being bored any longer. Lizzie was 11. She was of average height. She was quite average looking, too. She had long brown hair and bangs and brown eyes. She always wore either black or red glasses. That was just how she looked though. She was quite unique. She was considered one of the weirdest people in her school. Nothing special, though. She just liked weird things. She also had kinda weird friends. Her best friend were twins named Peyton and Sienna Sheppard. They were fraternal twins and didn't look the same. Peyton had long dirty blond hair and dull green eyes while Sienna, had short even dirtier blond hair. She also had green eyes.
She went to clean her room and found it was already done. Huh? She remembered it looking like a tornado blew through just this morning. Oh well, I must have done it, but was so bored I didn't remember. She thought, passing it off for boredom.
She then got the mail. She reached into the dark inside of the mailbox and pulled out a single letter. It was parchment and addressed in emerald ink. She didn't know the truth then. But, she was to find out soon. She saw it was addressed to her. She took it back inside and sat on her bed. She opened it slowly, because she honestly wasn't paying attention. She pulled it out and read:

She thought, IS THIS SOME KINDA JOKE!?!?!?!? She ran upstairs, letter in hand and said to her mom, "MOM!!! I think some idiot sent me a prank letter!" Her mom took the letter, read it, and beamed of all things! "Why in the world are you smiling?" She questioned. "You got in! I knew you would!" She exclaimed proudly. "Got in what?" She asked. " I should probably explained." replied her mom. She then explained about her family lineage. Telling her she came from a long line of people, some who happened to have magical blood. "You are a Half-Blood. That means one parent is a witch or wizard and the other a muggle." She explained. "I am a witch and your father a muggle."
