8:39AM
"WAKE YOUR ASS UP JULIANNA BEFORE I COME UP THERE" I heard my dad yell. I don't know why he's yelling at 8 in the morning but he is.
Normally on days like this I would just stay in my room because I can tell he's in a bad mood. Not a bad bad mood that he will hit me for nothing. Just a mood. I checked my phone and the weather because I always do that no matter what.
Today is supposed to thunder storm but the app is never always right. I got dressed and brushed my hair and teeth.
"I'm not going to tell you again-" My dad barged into my room to see me all dressed and moving. "My bad, breakfast is ready. Don't forget that you are going out today" "Yes Father" I replied and followed him down stairs to eat.
I love eating but I don't eat a ton. It's not that I don't have food or anything, I just forget to. My stomach never tells me when it's hungry anymore and I hate it.
But as you read my dad say IM going out today. To describe out is just going to the grocery store for them because they are to busy at the Ministry.
I ate my breakfast a little quick and grabbed my shoes and traveling coat. I do understand going to the store for them but I'm only 13. I can't carry tons of groceries and I forget my way there, oh well!
***
'I am almost the there! I can see it-' My thoughts were cut off by me running into something or someone. "Watch were you are going you stupid child" I heard a man say and I froze. I recognized the voice but who is it?
"my bad sir" I said and backed away a little bit. 'Who is this guy? I know I've seen him but where?!' I thought to myself 'I'll have to ask Cedric' I walked away from the guy.
I walked into the grocery store and went straight for the frozen section. 'I need to get some chicken for tonight. I know! Grilled chicken with corn and mashed potatoes for dinner!' I thought and grabbed the biggest but cheapest chicken I could find.
I went to get some bags of corn, couple boxes of mashed potatoes, milk, eggs and anything else we needed for a couple weeks. I walked to the self checkout because I cannot talk to people for the love of god.
I was checking out when I saw a dark figure walk to the checkout next to me. I looked over and it's the same guy before. I guess he noticed me looking cause he looked my way.
"Are you here alone?" I mysterious guy asked me. 'please don't be creepy' I thought "Um yes. why?" I answered him and looked towards him. He is looking at me when a worried faced. "How old are you? You seem pretty young to be out by yourself" "I'm 13.." I told him.
I finished checking out and I checked the time. 'Oh shit! I was supposed to home a hour ago. Fathers going to literally kill me!!' I thought and panicked to put the bags in the cart. "Woah there child, your going to drop your items" The man said and tried to help me with it.
"Im sorry but I have to leave!" I almost yelled and left the grocery store. I fast walked home. I went to cross the street but I got pulled back by someone and I watched a car fly in front of me. "Be careful young ma'am" I heard a mans voice say and I turned around.
It's not the same guy before, it's a complete different guy and he looks like he's going to eat me up. "Uhh bye" I said and ran with the cart across the street.

I arrived home and when I entered the living room I saw everyone sitting at the table. My father at the head, Mother next to him on the right with Cedric next to her. Darius sitting across from mother and Colette sitting next to her twin.
"Where the FUCK WERE YOU?!" Amos yelled at me. "YOU ARE OVER TWO HOURS LATE" He got up and came straight up to my face "Tell me. Where the fuck were you!" He asked me and I could answer.
Then he slapped me. "Tell me Julianna" "At the store father" I gritted out and he slapped me again. He has never laid a finger on me, but since he found out I didn't have any magic in me he gets mad at me for no reason.
"Amos stop it" My mother said. She's been crying, I can hear her sniffs. I stared deep into my fathers eyes and just stared. I stared and stared and stared. I wasn't aware of my surroundings and I heard a window scattered.
"JUILANNA STOP!" I heard my mom yell and I was snapped out of a trace I was in. I looked around and the twins are under the dinning table. Cedric is pointing his wand at me, mother is crying and father is on the ground.
"What the fuck did I just do" I whispered and backed out of the room and ran out of the house. I ran straight into a strong man, I looked up and saw the same guy. Professor Snape, I think that's his name. And why is he right in front of my home?
"What's going on here" Severus said and looked towards my front door. He walked straight to the door and in to the dinning room.
Severus Snape Pov
The same kid ran into me again. I swear i'm going to hex her. I looked at her and she is crying a shit ton. "What's going on here" I asked her and she didn't answer. I looked at the front door and walked inside.
I heard tons of crying and I walked into the dinning room. There was a man, Amos Diggory lying on the floor with his wife, Elizabeth Diggory shaking him. I looked to the right and saw Cedric Diggory hugging two younger kids that I forgot their names. There is also ton of glass everywhere and I can see that's from windows that were... exploded?
"Reparifor and Reparo" I said and Amos woke up and the windows fixed themselves. I went over to Cedric and it was like he knew what I was going to ask. "It was Julianna. Sh-She did all of this. It was like something took over her. She doesn't have any magic or that what we thought" Cedric told me while crying silently.
Is it is true. Her thought. Cedric is her older brother and she did whatever this was. She wasn't a ordinary "witch". She could be one of the most powerful witch in the wizard world.
Julianna Diggory Pov
I sat on my porch steps waiting from them to come out. "Jules?" I heard my mom say, I love when she calls me that nickname. "I'm so sorry mom! I didn't know what happened. I just got super mad and I don't know" I cried to her and hugged her.
"It's okay darling. It's okay" She hugged me back. "Please meet Professor Snape Jules" Professor Snape took his hand out and I shook it. I don't know why I'm meeting him, I'm not going to Hogwarts. Am I?

It's been a year since the incident happened and more crazy things happen. One day my pet fish died and I got super sad. Yes, it's a fish. I really loved the fish, he listen to everything and didn't judge me. And YES I know it's a FISH.
When I had to flush Finn, I made the water in the toilet bowl come up and it smashed into the wall. And that wasn't the only time that happened. It's just crazy to be completely honest.
***
I have been reading everything about wizards and spells. I really would like to go to Hogwarts but I don't think Im allowed to. "Im going out anna, do you need anything?" Cedric asked me "No thank you!" I told him and he left.
Since the incident, father hasn't been yelling at me much. Cedric has been hangout with me more and the twins have slowly been talking to me. I think their still scared of me.
Once I knew Cedric was gone I snuck into his bedroom and stole his broom. I grabbed 'how to fly a broom' book and went outside. I laid the broom on the ground and keep repeating "Up"
It took at least five minutes before the broom moved a tiny bit. I stop trying because Cedric was going to be home soon. I grabbed the broom and the book and ran back to his room to but the broom away.
I walked to my bedroom just in time cause I heard the front door open and Cedric yelled "I'm home!"

9:20AM
I woke up suddenly. Don't know why or how but I did. Tomorrow my sibling go off to stupid Hogwarts, where all the fun is.
I got out of my queen size bed and went to take a shower. It's just another stupid Thursday that I have muggle school. I'm in Year 11 and I still haven't gotten my Hogwarts letter. I do indeed have magic in me, I able able to fly a broom really good and cast tons of spells.
I got out of the shower, brushed my hair and teeth and got my uniform on. After I was all done I went downstairs to get the post. I normally never have mail but I still check it just in case.
I for sure wasn't going to get a letter because Cedric, Darius and Colette already got theirs last week. I was flipping through the envelopes and I came across a Hogwarts letter that had... my NAME?!
"OH MY GODD" I yelled
"What is it? You okay??" My mom came running to me and gasped when she say what I was holding. "Is that... Yours?" She asked and I nodded. "That's awesome sweetie! But there's barely anytime to get your supplies"
"I don't care. I got my lettter!!!!" I happily said and hugged my mom. "Come, breakfast is ready and you can tell your dad about this" She said and we walked to the dinning area.
"Dad!" I ran up to him and caught him by surprise. See if I did this two years ago, he would scream at me for touching him. But now he loves my hugs and everything.
"I got my letter dad!" I told him and showed him my letter. "That's wonderful Anna! You can finally meet my friends and the famous Potter" Cedric said and hugged me. "I'm excited" I told him and sat down.
We laughed and ate our breakfast as a family. No fights. No yelling. All calm.
"Mum, Could I take Julianna to Diagon Alley?" Cedric asked Elizabeth. "Sure! Here's 20 Galleons for the supplies" I was handed money that I forgot existed.
"Love ya" I said and Cedric and I left to get my supplies.

It's been couple hours and we finally came home. Everything I got today: four plain pairs of the uniform, three plain black robes, black protective gloves, black winter coat, one cauldron, my special wand, all the books from year 1-4 plus the fifth year books, lastly a owl.
"I'm so exited!" I told Cedric while we were bringing everything to my room. "Anna you need to start packing. We are leaving at 9am tomorrow" Frick that's only 16 hours away. "Okay Ced"
Once he left I grabbed my trunks and went straight to my closet. I won't be able to wear my clothes until the weekends for I don't need to pack a shit ton.
I grabbed some tshirts, hoodies, couple sweatpants, shorts for the summer and my favorite jeans. I put everything on the floor and went to folding them. My trunk will be able to fit everything, if not, I could just use capacious extremis.
I was able to put every clothing, supply and toiletries in my trunk without using the spell. I still have a smallish bag to fill up. I grabbed muggle books to read, two phone chargers, headphones, hair ties and my piggy (stuff animal)
"Dinner!" I heard my mum yell. Just in time for me to finish packing. I got up and went downstairs to the dinning area.
"Is everyone packed" My mother said and we all said yes. We finished dinner and went to the living room to watch a movie for the last time we are all together for 10 months.
It was around 9pm when the movie was over and I went to my room. I made sure my trunks where near my door and I laid out a outfit for tomorrow. I got into my pajamas and went to bed.
I can't wait for Hogwarts...
