“Wake up Luna! Your friends are waiting for you outside”. Luna awoke all of a sudden, her greenish bluish eyes fluttered open. Then she remembered that it was the day she and her two best friends were going to the Turtle fountain. Ever since they had received the intriguing letter from a certain Marta Delgado del Mar giving them strange instructions, they had decided to go. Quickly dressed in skinny jeans, a blue t-shirt and a black hoodie she dashed outside where her best friends were waiting for her: Morgana and Lorsore.

“Finally you are here! Morgana and I waited so long!” Lorsore said running a hand through his white blonde hair which his mom made slick back with gel and he always desperately tried to ruffle it. 

“You told me to be patient, but you see I am patient” he said, turning to Morgana. She wore a yellow t-shirt with pandas which stood out on her dark toned skin and black poofy hair her dark eyes glinted mischievously while Lorsore’s blue ones stared at the ground at his trainers.

“Soooooooooooooo let's go, shall we?” 


“Woa” Morgana gasped moments later at the sight of the majestic fountain in front of them. “The instructions said to go that way to that bar” Lorsore said without taking his eyes off the fountain. Once inside the bar, Lorosore handed their letters to a man who had light brown hair and eyes; he frowned and motioned them to follow him. They went into a deserted alleyway he muttered a few words and the wall in front of them opened up. Luna's heart missed a beat.





In front of them spiralling into the darkness was a long slippery staircase with no railes if you fell... “Well, better not find out” Luna thought. Luna sat on the stairs and slid all the way, Morgana and Lorsore following, terror clearly expressed on their faces. After many dark and dim winding passages they came out on an ally. Colorful shops on both sides. They entered a shop, trunks were on all the shelves: green, red, brown, pink, blue, white, black, leather, soft, hard, gritty and so much more. However Morgana, who had more money, bought a super magical one which could fit anything if you could un-stick it from the ground.





Luna and Lorsore went to one that could fit only an infinity of clothes. After having bought a wand and a fox (Lorsore a ferret, and Morgana an owl), books, cauldron, and ingredients they made their way to a station where they were greeted by a tall lean man. He had long legs with knobbly knees and extremely long nose and a fat belly.

The bar man said in an undertone “Follow that man, he'll take good care of you”. The man led them to a large box, with some words it opened it, and after more stairs they arrived in a place full of children and people. The tall man nodded, lifted his arms and turned into

“A stork!” Luna whispered. As luna started to feel queasy, she could see Morgana's dark skin turn a slight shade of green and surely her pale skin had turned the same color. They came in sight of a hill; on the brim of the hill was a small village with dozens of houses clustered all together. The box which was being pulled by strokes came to a halt and all the children poured out including Morgana, Luna and Lorsore. After a long wait, in which Sara Coretti - a really mean looking girl - had a fight with one of the teachers, they were led up the hill. Just as Lunas feet started to hurt, they saw a huge castle with four turrets reaching up to the sky. The students were led to a huge room where a lady with light brown hair said: “While here, you will have a house which also reflects your personality. They are all represented by an animal: killer whales, bears, wolves, and storks. Choose the house that suits you the most.” Morgana and Lorsore went into the bears while Luna went into the wolves. 


Morgana took deep breaths as she was in front of a door with Lorsore; as they opened it, they found themselves in a forest. Other students were huddled around hammocks, some were new and others old students who had their trunks under their hammocks. There was a sweet scent everywhere. A muscular man named Antonio appeared, he had light hair and dark eyes. He was head of the bears and after a talk they went to lunch ready for a day of study. 


“Wow” Luna gasped, she was in a dimly lit cavernL: it was the wolves' common room. Ahead of her was a blinding white light, she followed it and stopped just in time as she was about to fall off a steep cliff which gave off to a few trees, last patches of snow were here and there, clinging to boulders which jutted out of the rocky ground. Normally this would have scared her but it didn't. She slid down the cliff into the woody area and nestled on a nice and warm straw bed where her trunk was.   

Later on, Luna snuggled in her straw bed thinking of the day that had passed crazy heads of houses, exploding gates, flying charms, unlocking boxes, friends in herbology turning purple, and more.
