Authors Notes- Please note that this story is set in the 5th year. Anything
in the first four chapters I created before "Order of the Pheonix" hit
bookstores!
Dislaimers- I do not own anything that has been included in the Harry Potter books. But the rest is mine!
I have to thank all my friends for their help! You guys are life savers (cause I can't spell for crap!)
Chapter One - Welcome to Harry's life!
He did it. It had taken him 3 months but he finally did it. He had defeated Voldermort and saved Draco Malfoy's life in the process (why did he do that?)
*tap tap tap* "Who is tapping at a window and where are they tapping?" Harry thought *screech*
"Harry Potter" Vernbon yelled "Shut up that bloody bird." Harry woke with a start. Number Four Privett Drive was his location, not a bloody field in the middle of nowhere.
He opened the window and Hedwig flew in, followed by Pig, a Hogwarts owl and three owls Harry didn't recognise. Hedwig didn't bring Hermione's news nor Hagrids, but Neville's! Pig had brought Harry a birthday present and all Ron's news. The Hogwarts had brougt Harry's school information. The other three were different from any owl he had seen in his house before. One was a barn owl, another was a snowy owl (different to Hedwig) and one was..... Fawkes! The snowy owl brought Hermione's news + a present for Harry and the barn owl brought a present and a letter from Sirius. He didn't want to open any of the letters but the Hogwarts owl was getting impatient. So, because Harry is a lovely boy (deep down somewhere) he took the letters off the owls and re-opened his window, which only the Hogwarts owl flew out of. Fawkes and the remaining owls seemed to be waiting for a reply letter or some water, so Harry opened Hedwigs cage and sat down at his desk to begin reading and writing.
"Happy Birthday Harry. Sorry it is a bit late but mum had to borrow Pig to send letters to Percy (he is the new Crouch) because Hermes 'is too busy to send letters to family'. See you at school or Diagon Alley if we run into you. Ron"
Harry turned to the present. He'd have to open it if he wanted to thank Ron for it. He untied the string and opened the parcel. Harry opened it and inside was the normal jumper and baked treats but there was something else, it was what the Dursleys call a 'video'. There was a note attached to it, "Dad found this at work and it had your name on it. I hope it is useful. Ron". Harry would have to watch it later. Maybe when the Dursleys go out for some benefit for like the whales or something (Dudley whales not ocean whales).
"Hey Ron thanks for the present. I'll watch the video thingy when the Dursleys go out tonight. I"ll probably see you at school because I'm proably going to Diagon Alley sooner rather than later. See you, Harry"
He tied the letter to Pig and Pig flew out the open window. Next he moved onto Dumbledore's letter.
"Dear Harry, I'm pleased to inform you that Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Reubeus Hagrid will be arriving at Hogwarts not long after the school term begins. I have recently received a letter from Mr Weasley saying that he has sent you a very unusual video. If it is possible I would like you to bring it to Hogwarts without ever watching because I have some things to test. I must speak to you when you arrive on the first. I will get Proffessor Snape to escort you. From your friend and Headmaster, Professor A. Dumbledore"
Fawkes, seeing that his job was done flew out the window into the early morning sky. Hermione's letter now.
"Dear Harry, Happy Birthday. The owl that delivered your letter is Charlotte. My parents got her for me last week when we went to Diagon Alley to get you your birthday present. I, of course will be going again to get my school books. Maybe I'll see you then. If not see I'll you at Kings Cross station. Stay Safe. Love Hermione"
He opened the parcel that Charlotte had brought him. Hermione had given Harry books (who knew!) the first was 'Quidditch through the Ages', the second was 'Hogwarts, a History' and the third was 'The story of Harry Potter - the boy who lived'. He replied to Hermione stil in a bit of shock because of the last book. He knew he was famous he had just never seen it.
"Hey Hermione. Thanks for the books. I'll begin reading them soon enough. I proably won't see you at Diagon Alley because I think I am going in a couple of days. Charlotte is a beautiful owl but do you remember Crookshanks, your cat. Unless you took Crookshanks with you, you might have a dead owl soon. See you at school. Harry"
He tied his letter to Charlotte and she flew out the window without moving a feather. Now it was Sirius's letter.
"Hey Harry, Happy Birthday. Hope the Dursleys are treating you alright, if they are not I will curse them for you. I will see you at Hogwarts soon. I hope you like you gift. Sirius"
Harry opened Sirius's parcel wtihout hesitation. In it was an Englad Quidditch Jersey and another parcel. There was a note on this little parcel. It read "Harry, make sure you don't lose this." He opened it. It was a key and a chain. He placed the key on the chain and placed the chain around his neck. He would question Sirius later.
"Sirius, thanks for the letter. I've been worrying about you and the others all summer. I can't wait until you come to Hogwarts. See you then. Harry"
Short and sweer. He tied it to the barn owl and it flew out the window. Last there was Neville's letter.
"Dear Harry, Guess what! I have a penpal in Australia. Her name is Hannah and we have been exchanging letters all summer. The reason I wrote to you was to ask you to help me with a spell. I'll say more at school. See you soon. Neville"
With that Harry fell asleep at the desk.
