Dearest Mikey,
I said I would write you, and I have. My train ride was quiet, yet safe, and nothing unexpected happened, as that is typical. I can't say I expect this year to be anything other than what last year was. Though, I do hope that Aurelia and Eri leave me alone this year, but it's unlikely. Can you believe that I had nearly made more enemies than friends? How is it that I am so unlikable. Oh, comment je m'ennuie de la maison.
Though I want to pretend that I am, I am, in truth, not wishing Mama and Papa the best. I am sure that they are in the same position. But I am grateful for having met the Bishop girl, as well as my discovery of our history with the Teague's. This year may prove to be more eventful in the sense of finding out the answers to all our questions. Of course... I'll need to ask Aurelia how she knew. What sources told her. It's tough, and I know you told me to drop it, but you can't stop me now that I am away from home. I love you, Mikey, I really do, but I am not giving this up.
How is Tex? And Emaline? Still well, I hope. I am excited for when Emaline starts school! She will love it here. I can already tell that she will like the classes, too. Sometimes I wish Tex had stuck around. It might have done good for him. Tell those two I said "hi", alright? I need them to know that I haven't forgotten. Je m'ennuie de vous trois de tous les jours. I cannot wait to see you guys over the summer! I know it will disappoint Mama and Papa, but I am not coming home for winter break. Sorry.
And I suppose I should tell you of my classes! All is well, of course. Still maintaining decent grades. I love charms, just as I always have. And Professor Seaborne is very kind, as far as I can tell. And I got to meet my new Head of House, who I like very much! I guess you could say that the first week hasn't been completely awful... I haven't died yet. Emphasis on the yet. (Kidding, of course!)
But Mikey, please take care of everyone. I know that Tex has his doubts, and Emaline is still young. I'm sorry that I'm not there to help out. Just... Keep those two in order, will you? And make sure that Mama and Papa don't go too hard on Tex, because I really believe that he's trying. I think, if he had a different upbringing, maybe things would have been better. Maybe he would already have been a Quidditch star. Who knows, right?
Oh, and PS: I have every intentions of going for prefect, newspaper, and eventually the Quidditch team when I can. Wish me luck!
Your little sister,

Alexx Helm - Slytherin
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Dearest Lex,
I am relieved to hear that your trip was peaceful. Despite some of the things you say, I am still excited to hear of your adventures! My days in Hogwarts were not nearly as exciting, sadly enough. I believe Tex had more luck with finding trouble than I did. And I am sure that this year will be better for you, just wait and see. Nothing can stop you, right Lex?
Listen, I know that Mama and Papa drive you nuts, but please understand that they are trying their hardest. And- hey, at least you made two friends out of our family's mishaps. But I will ask again, stop hunting. Trust me, I've heard all the stories, and in time you will too. There's really nothing to be hung up over. Just please trust me on this one. You're just as stubborn as Tex was at your age. The similarities between the two of you always shock me.
Speaking of that knobhead, he's fine. And so is Ema. Don't worry, I'm looking after both of them, just like I said I would. Ema spends her days rambling about what house she thinks she'll get. She says Gryffindor, and I don't have the heart to tell her that she screams Hufflepuff. Papa and I are undeniably Ravenclaw, you and Tex are Slytherin without a shadow of a doubt. But Ema? Come on, you have to agree with me.
Ahh- classes! Good job on your grades. New professors, I assume? Man, you guys can't seem to keep any over there. What's going on at that school, anyway? Peu importe ce que c'est, j'espère que ça fera une bonne histoire quand tu rentreras à la maison. Quelque chose qui ravira Emaline. She'd like that. She thinks you're some kind of a superhero for going to school as any regular person would. Tell me all about your other classes, too. I want to know everything. Who are the professors? What are they like? A lot has changed since I went there, you know.
I promise you, I have it all under control. Je ne la laisserais pas quelque chose arrive à eux. You need to have more faith in me, little sister. I am trying over here, alright?
Your Brother,
P.S.
Get that Quidditch position, kid. Prefect too. Stop being so lame and make our house proud.

Dearest Mikey,
You worry too much about me. I know that you know things, but I am more than capable of making my own decisions. Because like you said, nothing can stop me. This is just one of those adventures you were talking about. See? Loophole. And the more I uncover, the more I'll have to tell you. Though, you already know everything. So I guess we'll just see if I'm on the right path.
You guys should be happy to hear that I started drafting my application for Prefect, so I won't be in too much trouble now that there's a risk of being fired if I get it. So, luckily for you, I'll be keeping my nose in line. I won't be throwing myself into danger anymore. At least... Not until the danger comes to me, that is.
I really wish that I could express with words how much I like all of my professors! I think I like potions just a little bit more now with Professor Nagal teaching it. He truly is quite brilliant! Though, the turnover here sure is weird! It's as if I blink and a professor has disappeared! Not that I was any closer with the last batch than I am with the ones who took over for them. However, it is mildly concerning at best.
Oh! Right! I made a friend. I totally forgot to tell you about him. His name is Reid, and he's a little bit annoying. He sure does talk a lot. He's in Hufflepuff and a second year like me. I like him I suppose. He's tolerable. Though, I sometimes worry that I might not be an amazing friend, so I really have no idea what I'm doing here. I've never had friends before, I guess. Well, you know that. But I'd like to keep him around for sure.
How's home? Am I missing anything exciting? I wish I could show you guys everything that happens to me here. Like that Aurelia girl who is still being a bother! I don't know what her problem is or how she even understands the family history, but it is itching at me. I hate it. But everything else is just fine, I guess.
Does everyone miss me? I miss you guys. Mostly you, Tex, and Ema. I bet it's not the same without the only sane one around, is it? Aside from yourself, that is. Though, I do not miss having a room to clean! The Slytherin dorms are so easy to maneuver, that's for sure. There is rarely a mess.
Alright, I have to get to History of Magic. Professor Risa wouldn't like to see me late.
