Chapter 1: The surprise of a lifetime

              Chris woke up covered in sweat with the same nightmare he gets right around his birthday were he hears a scream and sees a green flash, a shot of pain and evil laughter. Then he'd wake up looking around seeing the normal orphanage. He ran his fingers though his blonde hair and went to the calendar to see it was the 10th his birthday. He smiled and went to the window. Looking across the city his gazed stop on his favorite sight. the Eiffel Tower. He loved it here in Paris he lived here ever since he could remember.

   Then he went down the old dusty stairs for breakfast wondering what gruel he would have today he sat down at the table.

"Ah looks guyz! It'z the weirdo whoz fromz England," said one of the French kids trying hard to speak English. Chris opened his mouth about to say something when a giant walked though the door. Everyone was silent the giant search the room on till his gaze rested on Chris. Chris froze.

"It lookz Ike the iant wants ris," said one of the boys pointed out. Chris gulped as the giant walked towards him stopping in front of him and asking, "Are ya Christopher Brown?" Chris was only able to nod his head yes. "Well let's go then" he said.

"Wait." said Chris finally finding his voice. "Where are we going?" Chris said.

"We're going to Diagon Alley," said the giant.

"Diagon Alley? Where's that?" 

“In England." 

“England? Why England?"

"Because! That's where Diagon Alley is!"

"Okay then why are we going?"

The giant sighs and mumbles something and says, "Because you're a wizard!" gasps were heard through out the room then silence

"A wizard?" Chris whispered.

"You got that right now let's go."
