Kai stalked up the stairs and into the owlry. He looked around and spotted several black owls like his own. He sighed. He lifted two fingers to his mouth and let out a short, sharp whistle. One of the raven colored owls flew down immediately, and landed on a bar beside it's owner.
"Hey Nathaniel." he whispered, scratching the owls neck. It seemed to purr and Kai smiled. He grabbed an envelope out from his coat and opened it, re reading it once more. Mother, Father,
I hope you're doing well. I am fine myself.
I got into Slytherin! Hope you're happy about that.
And I've already signed up for the Quidditch team! I doubt I'll get in, but it's worth a shot.
I've made a few friends too, and I can't wait for the year to get going.
I hope to hear a reply soon,
Kai.
He shook his head. "Doesn't seem like I wrote this...oh well. Nathaniel!" the bird jolted and blinked at the boy. Kai tied the envelope on the owl's leg. "Take this to mum and dad, okay?" He picked up the bird and carried him to the window. "Send them my love." he whispered. The bird opened it's wings and flew off into the distance.
