It must have been one of the cooler nights of the summer, outside of number four private drive, the lawns were yellowing slowly due to the heat of the day, and the trees were swaying in the cool night breeze. The dursley's would have to be the last family EVER to be thought of as weird. Weird as in having a wizard in the family. Yes, you heard it right a wizard.
A skinny boy with jet black hair who wears glasses would definatly be different from the rest. A small thin lightning bolt scar lay upon his forehead. He got that when he was only a year old. When that horrible night came when voldemort came looking for Harry. His parents had died in trying to save Harry. But Harry had survived. He was the only person EVER to survive lord voldemort. All that voldemort left before he "half died" some say, was a thin lightning bolt scar. But of course, lord voldemort has now returned to full power.
Harry was still sad about loosing his godfather Sirius who died in trying to save Harry also. Harry thought it was all his falt that Sirius was dead for if he had thought it was just a dream than he wouldn't be dead. Ron and Hermione, his closest friends, told him it wasn't his falt but he wouldn't listen.
Harry woke with a start. His scar prickled painfully. Hedwig had returned from a journey to Ron's house. Harry sat up and reached for his glasses. Three other owls came swooping over to him from the window. He read Hedwig's first.
Dear Harry,
mum finally said it was ok if you came over! We will be arriving by floo powder at 3:00 tomorrow. Be ready!
Ron.
He wrote back telling Ron he will be ready and sent Hedwig to stay until he got there. He took the next owl's letter that was a package in stead of a letter. It was, Harry's favorite, berty's box every flavor beans, a box of chocolate frogs, and what looked like puking pastels, bloody nose nougat and extendable ears. That must be from Fred and George Harry thought.
He placed Ron's present on his bedside table and opened Hermione's.
Harry,
I found this when me family and I went shopping in an old wizard antique shop. It was lying on a stack of old books which were very interesting mind you, they were autobiographies of famous wizards and oh but you don't want to hear about that do you? Ok well this had yours and Sirius's name on it so I got it. I couldn't open it but it looks like it needs a key of some sort. Well hope you like it.
Hermione.
Harry opened it and flung the wrappers across the room. It was a beautiful small gold ball and if you turned it to one side it said potter and on the other side it said black. Like Hermione, Harry tried to open it but failed. The third gift was from Hagrid
dear Harry;
this here is something that was very important to. I had it when my dad died. It helped ease the pain and sorrow I felt. Hope it works with you,
stay well,
Hagrid.
Harry opened it with a scared feeling in his stomach, Hagrids idea of comfort was not nearly the same as
his. But what was in the wrapping was a beautiful patch work quilt and a very smooth dragon tooth. Harry rubbed it and his sorrow was lifted from him. It was as smooth as silk and sparkled in the sunrise that was now coming up. He looked at his clock it was now 8 in the morning thinking he would go down to ask the dursleys if he could go he went downstairs. The dursleys all flinched at the sight of him and Dudley ran into his room.
"Uncle Vernon?" Harry asked
"what do you want boy" Vernon said grumpily
"I want to spend the rest of the summer over at Rons house."
"And what makes you think im going to let you got there?"
" oh I don't know ill just have to write to him and say that I am very upset about that and moody tonks and lupin would probably blast the house apart to get me."
"Fine you can go tells those those freaks that you are going. Now leave me alone!!"
"Sure I got to go pack they will be coming but floopowder again and will get here at 3:00 later bye." said Harry and dashed up to his room and packed. When he was done packing it was already 3:04 so he went and waited in the hallway. It wasn't long till he heard the dursleys scream in fright and he dashed in the room to see four very dirty and soot full weasly's.
"Hi Harry had a good summer so far?" Ron asked. He had gotten allot taller since last year.
"No but I think ill live." Harry replied.
"well we have to get back now so say good bye Harry and Fred you grab Harry's trunk and go after George that Harry and Ron." mr.weasly said.
Soon Harry had that sickening feeling in his stomach again and than came tumbling out of the fire Ron came after falling on Harry
"OUCH" Harry said and mr.weasly appeared in the fire but didn't fall down. Ron rolled off Harry and mrs.weasly came bustling in the room.
"Oh Harry dear I hope there was no trouble we would have gotten you sooner but things have been going on around here."
"It's okay really." Harry said
"Ron why don't you take Harry's stuff up to your room so he can get settled in. Hermione will be here tomorrow after lunch." mrs.weasly said while scrubbing some dishes.
"Than Harry you want to play some quiddatch? Or race brooms I don't think we have enough players to play quiddatch."
"Sure ok"
" but we have to race the same type of brooms we have two the same they are comet two sixty's. Kind of old but I think we can manage don't you?"
"Yeah that's fine."
An hour later Fred and George came out saying it was time for dinner. Surprisingly Percy was sitting at the table talking with Ginny and Ginny was laughing.
"Hey Ron Percy and your dad made up?" Harry asked
"well sort of, dad gets really tense around him but mom says that the who9le family is back together again." Ron said sighing." now we have to listen to boring reports on his stupid job."
" sounds fun" Harry said sarcastically
they ate while talking very loud, mr.weasly was talking to mrs.weasly and glancing over at Percy every now and than, Fred and George were discussing something Harry couldn't hear for they were talking very quiet compared to the others, Percy was still making Ginny laugh with funny faces, he seemed to lighten up some Harry thought, and Ron was talking to Harry about ways that he can improve his quiddatch (SORRY I DONT KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT)
"ok every one time to get some rest, ill see you tomorrow." mrs.weasley said. They all walked up to their rooms still talking loudly their conversations they had at dinner and soon fell asleep.
