Chapter 1: The beginning

------------------------------

Petunia Dursley just stared at the basket left on her doorstep. 'Now how did this get here?' she asked herself as she bent down to see what was in the basket.

She gasped as she opened the basket and found a baby boy, about the age of Dudley in the basket sleeping. She picked the poor thing up and brought him inside for Vernon to see.

No one saw the solitary piece of parchment float away in the breeze, never to be read by anyone, so that someone, anyone, might remember the name of Harry Potter-the boy who lived.

A/N: I know this is short, but it's just a prologue for what's to come. Review if you want another chapter.
