Chapter 1- Dream Land

'Hello again Harry!' Said a familiar voice.

'What on Earth do you want this time?' Harry replied, with a sigh.

'We just want to tell you that this year will be a marvel in its self boy!' Said a second familiar voice.

'You will meet challenges beyond your wildest dreams and you will come across obstacles with your friends.' Said the first voice.

'What do you mean? You keep talking to me but I don't know who you are or what you are talking about!?'

Then the world around him started to swirl and disappear

Harry Potter awoke from his recurring dream and exclaimed, 'Why me? Why always me? Honestly why do I have to have these weirdo dreams? Why can't I have pleasant dreams? Maybe a dream about sweets from Honey Dukes or a dream about Hogwarts? WHY DO THEY HAVE TO BE WEIRD!'

The green eyed boy with his unruly, jet black hair got out of bed and moved about him bedroom cleaning up and feeding Hedwig. He glanced at his dresser and saw three birthday cards from Ron, Hermione and Hagrid. He smiled a bit and then heard what he had come to dread.

'Harry Potter! Get your lazy bum down here right this instant!' bellowed Uncle Vernon.

'Bloody Hell! What do they want now? A foot massage perhaps?' he said looking towards Hedwig.

He pulled on a black t-shirt and a pair of blue jeans and went down stairs and awaited his surly, gloomy task.

'Yes Uncle Vernon?' Harry asked cautiously to make sure he didn't set off any mood swings.

'Boy get in the kitchen and try and cook us some descent breakfast!' Uncle Vernon spat.

'Yes Uncle Vernon.' Harry replied gloomily.

Harry went into the kitchen and cooked sausage and eggs for his "family' and served it to them. He wolfed down the leftovers and went upstairs. After awhile he decided there was no use in sitting in the house on a day like this, and decided to go for a walk.

He walked down Privet drive and then into Magnolia Crescent. As he walked past 342 Magnolia Crescent he spotted a gloomy looking girl staring out of her window into the clear blue sky.

Harry feeling good about it yelled up and said, 'Nice day isn't it!'

The beautiful girl with long blonde hair and blue eyes replied, 'Yes it is nice out. What is your name?' This mystery girl answered in a weird accent that was not English.

Harry automatically said, 'My names Harry Potter What is yours?'

The beautiful foreign girl said, 'My name is Simone. I just moved here from Slovenia.'

Harry replied, 'That must suck for you, moving to a new place and not knowing anyone. What school are you going to be attending?' said Harry not even thinking about his answer for a return reply.

Simone replied nervously, 'Um... I am going to the local public school. What school are you going to?'

Harry replied, his mouth moving faster than his head, 'Oh... um well I go to a school out of town you wouldn't know what it is.' Said Harry nervously not wanting to let Simone know that he was a wizard. 'I stay there during the school year. I only come home for the summer holiday.' Harry said in a shaking voice.

'Well I'll be seeing you then... I go back to school soon and I've got to pack. Bye Simone! A pleasure meeting you!' Harry waved and then turned around and walked home.

Harry went up to his room and began to throw his things into his trunk mindlessly thinking about Simone. He threw in some books and his wand and robes and all of his 16th birthday presents from his friends. Harry then lie down on his bed and fell asleep dreaming not of strange voices or Simone†but dreaming of his home, Hogwarts.'
