Prologue:
Everyone would comment on how intelligent Harry's familiar, Hedwig, a beautiful snowy owl, was. The fact that she seemed to always turn up when there was mail to be sent, regardless whether it was Harry's mail or his friends, when he was brooding or even when he was just feeling out of sorts. She became famed for appearing out of nowhere and landing on her master's shoulder, nipping at his ear or preening his hair affectionately. She even seemed to hold conversations with the boy, replying with bobbing her head or barking an owl bark. She would even recognize his friends and family, fetching them when Harry really needed them.
When asked where he bought this wonderful creature Harry would smile and reply that he didn't buy her, she had chosen to come with him. She was free to abandon him according to her whims.
She never did, but how they met was a story unto itself.
