Harry Potter And The Book Of The Ancients
Chapter 1: The Most Terrible Summer ever
It was another down pour over Little Whinging had began and non welcomed it more then a 16 year old skinny with untidy black hair and brilliant green this was Harry Potter. He stood alone swinging slowly on the swing with a look of great lost. Harry was a unusual boy for one thing he hated the summer holidays more then anything in the world and another thing was he had a lighting bolt scar on his forehead and the most unusual thing of about him was that he was a wizard. Harry was even more unusual for a wizard was that when he was a baby he destroyed possible to most powerful wizard since Salazar Slytherin, Harry ha escaped with nothing more then a lighting bolt scar and Voldemort was powerless with not even a body, but he claimed Harry's parents. Harry welcomed the rain since today of all days it seemed to match his mood. Harry sat there silently letting the rain slowly pound up on his head staring up at the sky. Ever since his 4 year at Hogwarts School Of Witch Craft And Wizardry His life had been a living hell. At the end of his 4 year he saw Lord Voldemort rise again and saw him murder Cedric Diggory he. Voldemorts servant (wormtail) helped resurrected the monster sacrificing his own hand and taking Harry's blood. Harry had then had to duel him and again escaped when many witches and wizards more powerful then him fell to his death. Then at the end of last year Voldemort used Harry's emotions against him entering his mind and made him go to the Department of Mysteries to retrieve the prophecy about him and Voldemort.
The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches…
Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month
Dies…and the Dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the dark lord knows not…And either must die and the hands at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives… The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches…
Born to those who have thrice defied him, born as the seventh month
Dies…
And in the process one of his most loyal servants Bellatrix Lestrange had killed his Godfather Sirius Black the only person in the world which Harry considered father. There was his best friend Ron's family, the Weasleys but He was never as close to Mr Weasley as he was to Sirius. Harry once had a twinkling in his eyes but now there was nothing, just shadow and Death. Harry had a wound deep in his heart it was filled with guilt, anger hate and depression. The rain was now more fierce then ever Harry new that most of his wound could heal but he always new there would always be a scar like his scar on the outside. The rain had now started pound so strong that every hit felt like a chip of hot iron falling from the sky. Harry suddenly felt a arm wrap around his shoulders and with out realising it he started heading towards number four Privet drive Harry heard a young women whispering in his ear repeated saying the same thing "It's all right Harry your going to be ok." Harry looked up saw a young woman with long straw berry blonde hair she had a small nose and wore lavender coloured robes this of course was Tonks. Harry had became quite close to Tonks over the summer and when she got the chance she visited (while he was with Miss Figg of course) Harry had a idea that sometimes she came not on Order Business but on her on free will to watch over Harry. Harry suddenly realised where she was leading him he saw the front door of Number Four Privet Drive loom up in Front of him Harry suddenly started struggling against but the Aurors grip was to strong she then said to Harry 'I know this is hard for you but you have to." Harry suddenly broke Free from her grip, Harry saw that she had tears in her eyes but anger got the better of him he shouted at her "YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE YOU HAVEN'T LOST EVERYTHING THAT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU, YOU DON"T KNOW WHAT ITS LIKE TO BE TRAPED IN HER ALL SUMMER WITH NOBODY THAT EVEN APPRECIATE YOU.'
And with that Harry open the door and slammed the door in her face. Harry walked through the door and up to the stairs his room dripping water everywhere he heard Aunt Petunia give a scream and Uncle Vernon yell at him. Ever since his talk with Moody at the end of last year Uncle Vernon had taken his hate Towards witches and wizards to another level. He now had installed a new state of the art alarm system and brought himself a shinny new gun, Harry often snorted at the gun thinking what would happen if he pointed it at Moody but other then that they had taking Mad Eyes talk to Heart. Dudley still was on his diet but was surprised when his Aunt and uncle gave him a full blown meal. Harry had also hardly been made to do any Chores (much to Dudley's Annoyance). Harry sat down on his bed and the image of Sirius Falling through the black Veil to his death, the image kept repeating in his mind. Harry put the bellow over his head trying as if he was trying to block out the images slowly Harry fell into an uneasy sleep full of nightmares. Harry awoke in the night and saw Pig His friend Ron's owl tapping at his window, Harry opened the window and suddenly for owls flew into his room Harry quickly snatched pig and opened his letter.

Dear Harry
How are you doing Things have been quite here. Sorry I haven't been able to right to you this summer but Dumbledore had insisted on it. We may be able to send Owls again like we use again because Dumbledore but some Charm on the path between Headquarters and as long as the owl keeps on that flight path it can't be seen. I know it must be hard for you this summer but you have to understand that's it for your own safety. I hope you don't still keep pounding your self over Sirius I know you probably angry at the moment. Just remember he would not have wanted you to keep pounding yourself like you are he would have wanted you to move on with life. You know that he died a hero and would have wanted it this way. I'm sorry that I had to say this (Ron will kill me when e finds out) and I hope your not angry at me.
Hermione

Harry had tears in his eyes and suddenly realised he had been a idiot to everyone especially Tonks. He wiped A way the tears from his and new that Hermione was right. He opened the package Hermione's gave him and looked down at a book.
