Discovering the Truth
As Harry waited to meet Dumbledore on his first day at Hogwarts, he sat in the headmasters office wondering why he had called him, Harry, to his office. When he got the message on the train, it had sounded very urgent.
message: Harry,
please meet me in my office on the seventh floor after the start-of-term-feast.
Dumbledore
p.s. the password is Gillywater
Dumbledore sat in the Great Hall waiting for the rest of the Hufflepuffs to file out at the end of the usual start of term feast. Finally he stood up and walked out of the Great Hall and started up to his office. All throughout out the feast, all he could think of was what he would say to Harry. He knew that he must tell him of his parents and his godfather, Sirius Black. Only he believed that Sirius did not kill his parents, or reveal their whereabouts to Lord Voldemort, the dark wizard.
Harry had been sitting in the Headmaster's office for what seemed like forever before he finally entered the room. Harry stood up and turned to face the headmaster.A few short months ago, he found out he was going to be attending Hogwarts, a school of magic. Of course he didn't believe Hagrid, the giant that told him he was a "wizard."
Dumbledore walked over to his large oak desk and sat down facing Harry.
"Harry,"he started,"I know that you do not like living with your aunt and uncle, but they were very kind to take you in and raise you. I am fully aware that the treat you very horribly, but you have to return there once a year until you become of age. You, I'm sure don't understand any of this, but in due time, you will. Now with that said, I would like to explain why I asked you here. I imagine you are wondering why everyone seems to know who you are, correct?" But Dumbledore did not wait for Harry's response before adding: "when you were not even a year old, your parents were murdered by a dark wizard, Lord Voldemort. Everyone knows your name because he tried to kill you too, but he did not succeed, and you survived. No one, except you has ever been known to survive Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters. You see, he posesses such a powerful magic with such depths that even some of the most powerful witches and wizards do not know of. That night eleven years ago, Voldemort disappeared, some say he died, but I don't believe it. And now, with you back into the wizarding community, some of the staff and I feel that he may return. Now, mind you, we are taking every precaution we can think of to ensue that he does not enter the school, he very possibly may, because the castle holds a secret that he desperately longs to have in his posession."
