Chapter 1 The Invitation

"Harry! Wake up! You have breakfast to make. Get up!" Aunt Petunia banged at the door till she got a reply.

"Yes, I at getting up. Yes, YES!" Harry rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and put on his ugly, old nearly broken glasses. Hermione had used a spell to fix his glasses but Dugley decides to use him as a punching bag and punched him in the nose. So now his glasses had a big piece of duck tape on the center, holding it together.

"Harry! Come on! People are hungry!" His fat, Uncle yelled.

This is going to be a long summer He thought as he opened the door to his cupboard-of-a-room and walked to the kitchen. His ""family"" sat around the kitchen table leaving no room for his to sit.

"Hurry up I'm hungry." Dudley whined.

"Harry! Hurry up, Dudley-kins is hungry." Aunt Petunia complained.

Harry quickly fried up some eggs, bacon and toasted some toast.

Dudley started to whine even more. "Im hungry! He's going to starve us to death Mommy!"

"HARRY HURRY UP!" Both his Aunt and Uncle yelled at him.

He put their food on plates and served it to them, leaving only a little bit for him and his owl Hedwig.

"Enjoy." He muttered as he walked to his cupboard-of-a-room.

"Crreee" His owl squawked.

"Yes, I have food for you." He handed her a piece of bacon and a little bit of an egg. And for himself half a slice of toast, half an egg, 1 piece of bacon and a mouth full of orange juice. It wasn't that much his stomach was still growling for more but he could do nothing. He wasn't allowed to do magic out side of school, the ministry of magic knows when you used magic and what spell you used, and it was no use.

"Don't worry Hedwig, we will have lots of food when we get to Hogwarts.

"CRREK!" Which probably ment, 'Who said I'm worrying?'

He opened the cage and let her fly around in the room. "You probably want some fresh air eh?" He opened the window and Hedwig flew out. "Come back soon."

It was nearly 10:00 pm when Hedwig flew back into his room. In her claws she was carrying a letter. She dropped it on his bed, flew in her cage and started eating bits and pieces of the left over eggs and bacon.

Harry quickly opened the parchment to find an invitation,

At the bottom of the letter there was a ticket to Hogwarts express. The Forbidden Forest? He slowly folded the letter and stuffed it under his pillow.

"Creee!' Which probably ment look at the calendar.

"Hmmm wonder what day it is to-day?" He walked over to his worn calendar on him wall It was the 18, he had to send a letter back to them saying he wanted to go. He grabbed some paper and a quill and started to write a reply,

Dear Hogwarts Staff,

Thank-you for inviting me to this camp in the Forbidden forest.

I will be at Hogwarts at 12:00.

Thank-you again.

Yours Truly,

Harry Potter

Hedwig came out of her cage, as if knowing that she had to send something.

"Here ya are Hedwig. Take a rest at Hagrids before you come back." He waved farewell to his owl as she flew out of the window into the night.
