It was a bright, sunny, beautiful day in Downtown New York City; The sky was bright and shiny, not a cloud to be spotted. The streets of NYC were currently very calm today, as most of the citizens were currently sleeping in the Tipton Hotel of New York right now, including The Brown's family, who, unknown to the other people, were actually wizards...The only boy of the family, Charlie Brown, was sleeping in his bedroom right now, snoring softly to himself, his arm dangling gently from the edge of the bed softly, swaying back and forth slowly, as Charles rolled a bit to the end side of his soft, yellow/black-striped bed. "Zzzz....Zzzzz...."He snored gently, a bit of droll dripping down his mouth as he continued to be in his slumber. Suddenly, Charles's bedroom door slowly creaked open, as a small yellow-blonde-haired girl, wearing baggy pink-colored PJ's on, carrying a fluffy over-sized pony plush with her, it was Sally Brown, Charlie's little sister. She slowly walked up to her older brother, who was currently still sleeping on his bed, gently tapping him on the shoulder, "Pssst...Big Brother, wake up." She whispered, softly, but Charlie Brown simply just swatted her hand away, groaning groggily. She grumbled softly, "Big Brother, you gotta wake up! We're gonna be late for school!" Sally once again whispered, trying to get her brother up. Once again, he simply swatted her hand again, "...Mmmph...I don't wanna..." Charlie Brown said softly, in his sleep, Sally sighed. She knew she had to find another way to wake em up...Suddenly, an idea came into her head, as she began to wag her fingers around in a magical way, summoning a fog horn, grinning softly. She slowly tip-toped closer to her brother, slowly putting the air horn straight up into his ear, as she slowly pressed the button on the air horn, as the loud, blaring noise flared off, causing Charlie Brown jolted away. "G-GAAAAAH!!!!" He screamed loudly, in a frightened manner, causing him slam face-flat down onto the floor. Sally giggled to herself softly, cupping her hands to his face gently, Charlie Brown sighed, giving an annoyed gaze, "Sally! Why are you waking me up at this time of day?!" Charlie shouted, Sally cleared her throat, "Well, cause we gotta get ready, big brother!" She said, smiling. Charles paused for a moment, looking confused, "...Ready for what?" He asked. Sally looked dumbfounded, "Y...You don't know!? Today's gonna be our first day at the local school! Mom and Dad wanted me to wake up so we could get ready." Charlie Brown's eyes went wide in shock, gasping. He then began to hop off his bed, trying to get his clothes on as fast as he could, "I-I GOTTA GET READY! A-alright, uh...Tell Mom and Dad I'll be down in a sec, alright Sally?!" He asked, Sally nodded her head, understanding, "You got it, big brother!" She said, as she let her brother get dressed, closing his bedroom door, and walking down the stairs to the living room, only to be stopped by something tackling her. Something very small and soft-looking: It was Snoopy! Charlie Brown's pet beagle, that he had gotten at Daisy's Puppy Mill Farm many years ago alongside a friend of his. Snoopy began licking Sally's face gently, hugging her, she giggled happily, "Awww, Hiya Snoopy!" She said happily, Snoopy smiled up at her, sitting gently in the 6-year-old girl's lap, soon falling asleep. She gently sat on the living room couch, still holding Snoopy in her lap, trying her best not to be loud to not disturb him, at least until he woke up. Meanwhile, Charlie Brown was currently figuring out what outfit he should go with on his first day at school, "Hm...Let's see here...." He said to himself, as he looked inside his bedroom's wardrobe, which revealed a few outfit's his parents had gotten him at the local thrift store of NYU, which some were either shirt's, black shorts, shoes, and a few yellow-colored hat's. He smiled to himself, making his mind up, as he began to get dressed, wearing his usual outfit; A yellow and black striped, zig-zagged shirt, black-colored shorts, and light-brownish tied shoes on. Finally, after finish getting dressed, he quickly walked down the stairs to have some breakfast with Sally and his parents, only to trip on a toy plane his sister had, "WHOOP!" He yelped, as he began flopping face-first down on all the stairs, groaning. He winched a bit getting up slowly, looking quite dizzy, "...Ugggh...Good GRIEF." He said softly to himself, sighing, as he went on over to the kitchen, seeing his family having breakfast together, as he sat down with em, feeling a bit better, "Heh, hey guys.." He said softly, waving at em, Snoopy's gaze turned to his owner's, as he instantly zoomed at Charlie Brown, licking him affectionally, causing him to laugh a bit, "Wha-PFFT HEHEHEHE, SNOOPY! CUT IT OUT BOY!" The round-headed boy laughed, taking the affection quite happily, smiling. Sally smiled, sitting down next to her big brother, as the two's mother was currently making them plate's of buttered toast, bacon, and scrambled eggs: Their favorite breakfast foods! "Thanks mom!" Sally and Charles both said together, happily. They're mother nodded happily, smiling gently. Sally and Charlie Brown's father had also woken up as well, greeting the two smiling, ruffling his hand in both they're hair, gently. They're father was a tall man, who has silky, brownish-colored hair, and a friendly expression on his face always. He and they're mother had taught Charlie and Sally how to use magic like they did quite a long time ago, even longer then before they came to New York City, and the children had gotten quite very good at it after many years. While eating breakfast together, Charlie and Sally's father asked the two how they thought of they're first day's at the school. Sally looked quite cheerful, "It's gonna be the best, daddy! I'm so excited!" Sally squealed happily, grinning from ear to ear. Charlie Brown on the other hand, was not the same. In fact, he was udderly nervous to do it, Charlie's father noticed this, asking if he was alright, Charles flinched for a second. He sighed though, "I'm not sure, Dad...I'm...honestly kind of nervous to do this, you know? I've never been in a school like this before..." He said anxiously, playing with his thumbs, in a nervous manner. His father patted him on the back softly, reassuring Charlie Brown that everything was going to be alright, making the 10-year-old boy feel a bit better about himself, "Thanks dad." Charlie Brown muttered, under his breath softly, his father nodded, smiling... After having breakfast, Charlie Brown and Sally's bus ride soon came to a stop at they're apartment, to which Charlie and Sally went up to the stairs of the large, yellow-colored bus, waving goodbye to they're parents, as the bus's doors slowly closed, and in an instant, they were off. As Charles and his little sister walked sitting down at they're seats, a small voice whispered to them, "Psst...PSST!" The voice sounded off, Charlie paused, hearing this voice, "H-huh?" He was puzzled. Where was that coming from? His gaze turned to a young, tomboyish-looking girl his age, who was wearing a dark greenish-colored jacket, a baseball cap, and sandals on her feet, "Ay there, dude! How's it goin'?" The tomboyish-looking girl asked, smiling with a wide grin, waving at Charles.
