Destroyed In Seconds

Lynx was playing with his toy dragon holding it in his hand while running around the house swooping it up and down as though this creature was a total master of flight, Lynx then began to spin the dragon towards the ground in a nose dive position....THUD! the toy hit ground sending a slight vibration through the house

As Lynx picked up his toy he heard the screech of the family owl as it entered through the open kitchen door, his mother had begun cooking the she sat at the kitchen table sipping on a warm mint tea as for she had enchanted the pot of roast pumkin and potatoes to cook themselves, Lynx walked into the kitchen, the family owl had mail

His mother opened the letter and read it carefully, Lynx noticed her complextion go pale, she then let out a small gasp " Mummy what is it, mail can't be that shocking?" Lynx asked innocently, his mother looked down at him then raced to the front and and locked it, she then turned to Lynx " Mummy just has to go out for a while, remember stay inside and behave". Little did Lynx know the letter which his mother recieved informed her that her husband had just been killed by a Basilisk while busting illegal breeders. Lynx's mother, then kissed Lynx on the cheek and apparated out

Lynx was confused as to why his mother was leaving the house just before dinner, and furthermore it was quite strange his father wasn't home yet. Lynx then walked to the door and looked up at the locked handle, he then concentrated hard, picturing the door unlocking, while he was only 6 he had done this "accidentel magic" before, suddenly he heard a click as the door unlocked, he then reached up and turned the handle and stepped outside

The air was crisp and cool, Lynx then sat on the first step of the verandah and gazed out and along the street, he was begining to become quite hungry and was hoping his mother and father would be home soon
