It was summer, seemingly just like any other summer but it was not.

Now before we start a little bit about myself.
I have a Mother and a Father, they weren't my real Parents, no, they adopted me when I was a baby but I still call them my Parents. They don't really care for me and were always out of the house working or stuff. But they gave me a home, when I was younger they made me food, witch I was all very grateful for.
One thing I had to do, was grow up fast at the age of 9, I was making most of my own meals, walking to school, and cleaning the house.
My Parents now only cook meals for me on my birthday and Christmas.
I also didn't really have any friends at school. Even though my life was anything but special I always felt different, like I didn't belong, like I was meant for something more. Not just because strange things happen to me all the time, things I couldn't explain when I was angry or sad, but I just felt out of place.

One week before my 11th birthday I got a letter. I very interesting letter. On the front in big letters it read.

Miss. (First letter of your first name) Black.

I flipped it over as I walked up to my room admiring it. The letter was sealed with a red wax stamp with a 'H'. I ripped open the letter curiosity filled my brain as I began to read.
