Disclaimer: This is going to be for the WHOLE story so I'll say it once. I do NOT own Harry Potter and all other characters associated. I only own the plot and anything you don't recognize.
The Order of the Phoenix~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
It was peaceful and quiet on Privet Drive in Little Whinging. That is, until some animals swooped over the rooftops and started tapping on the window of the smallest bedroom of house number 4. A light turned on in the bedroom momentarily and a hand opened the window to admit the animals and then shut the window and the light disappeared.
Harry Potter grinned when the four owls swooped into his bedroom at the Dursley's. Yes, owls. For Harry Potter is no ordinary boy, he was a wizard. He was a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He took a look at the four owls that were perched randomly in his room. One he recognized as his own snowy owl, Hedwig, another, a minute owl, as his friend, Ron's owl, Pigwidgeon or Pig for short. The other two he had no idea where they came from, but he relieved all the owls of the post and then let the two important looking owls out. The package that Hedwig had brought was from Hermione Granger, one of his best friends. She was also the smartest witch in the year, which was quite an accomplishment. He opened the envelope that had his name in her neat handwriting and took out the letter.
Hey Harry!
How are you? Are the Dursley's treating you right? I sure hope so. Well, I'm in Australia at the moment, and wow, it's so cold here! (It's winter here, in case you didn't know) Not like England is any better, but at least it doesn't snow there. Well, I've been touring around and finding out information about the Aboriginal wizards and witches and I have to say, the magic was quite impressive at their level. Well, I'll tell you about my trip later, but here's my present! I really hope you like it!
-Hermione-
Harry looked down at the parcel in front of him and unwrapped it. Inside was a magical boomerang, with inscriptions on it telling him that the boomerang would hit anything or anyone within a 100-kilometre radius and bring back whatever he wanted within a 100-kilometre radius. He smiled and put the boomerang up on the shelf where it stood, shining a bit in the moonlight. He then turned to the package that Pig had brought from Ron and opened the letter too.
Hey Mate!
Well, things at the Burrow have been normal as usual, you know, the same old bangs and clangs from the twins room, Percy trying to get them to shut up and of course, me and Ginny pestering mum about asking Dumbledore if you could stay here, so guess what?? He said yes! So, we'll be there on Saturday night, be ready and packed by your window. Oh, and you should tell the muggles that you are leaving, although I don't think it really matters. Anyway, happy birthday, I hope you enjoy you pressie!
-Ron-
Inside the package Ron had sent, was a mirror. With shapes moving inside it. Harry knew at once that it was a miniature Foe Glass. 'Wow, thanks Ron, this is great!' he thought and propped it up next to Hermione's present. Then he turned to the two packages from the two owls that he didn't recognize. One package he recognized was from Hogwarts, so he went for the other one. He opened it and then a note warbled in the air that made him feel warm inside. It was a phoenix note. A piece of parchment fell out with a golden ball with a feather inscribed on it. The parchment simply said:
'Welcome to the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter'
And then, a flash of light appeared and then Harry sat there, stunned. 'The Order of the Phoenix? What in the world is that?' he thought and then shrugged and turned back to his Hogwarts envelope. Inside was the usual list of supplies, but then a metal object fell out, he picked it up and got his second major shock of the night. 'Prefect?!? I've been made a Prefect?!? Dumbledore must be nuts!' he thought to himself, but was pleased nonetheless. Then he turned to put it up next to the other gifts and then, the third and final shock of the night made him fall back onto his bed, eyes wide and staring.
