°•Chapter 1 - Acceptance Letters•° “Again!” Lucius Malfoy instructed. If Veronika had to do this same dueling exercise one more time, she would ‘accidentally’ set someone’s pants on fire. Her twin brother, Draco, stood at the other end of the dining room. The long table and numerous chairs had been moved elsewhere, so it served as the perfect place for the Malfoys’ dueling practice. “Veronika, your stance is completely off! And Draco, your protection spell is pathetic. Start again!” Lucius scolded them. Veronika sighed heavily, but grinned when she caught Draco rolling his eyes. She always liked it better when they both agreed on things (which was extremely rare), like how pointless learning how to duel early was since they were going to learn it at Hogwarts anyway. But Veronika raised her training wand nonetheless. “Just like last time.” she reminded herself, “Draco steps before he attacks.” Not a second later, Draco took a step forward and shouted, “Petrificus Totalus!” Veronika, expecting it, shielded herself, “Protego!” She breathed out a small sigh of relief. Last time Draco hit her with that spell, she was stiff for hours, much to Draco’s delight. “That was better, but not perfect.” Lucious folded his arms in slight disappointment. Before he could tell them to do it again, Narcissa Malfoy, the twins’ mother, rushed in with an envelope in her hand, and their older brother, Xavier, right behind her. “The Hogwarts letters have arrived!” She handed Draco and Veronika the two enclosed notes. “Dear Ms. Malfoy,” Veronika read silently to herself, “we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please ensure that the utmost attention is given to the list of requirements attached. We very much look forward to receiving you as a part of the new generation of Hogwarts heritage. Yours sincerely, Proffesor McGonagall.”
