Chapter 1. The Dursley's meet Luna Lovegood

"So which one of you charming friends is this, boy?" Uncle Vernon asked Harry, staring at one of Luna's radish earrings rather rudely.

"Nothing" Harry replied sniggering a little.

"You relatives are a bit strict, aren't they?" said Luna quite audibly to Harry so that everyone else could hear.

"Shhh, and, well, yeah" he whispered back.

"Hey Luna what was that thing the, the , the.."

"Yeah".

"Excuse me" interrupted Uncle Vernon, "the crumple horned what, did you say?"

"The crumple horned snorecack" Luna replied,

"And, what might I ask is that?" said his voice quaking,

"A magical…"

"Magic, MAGIC, I want no mentions of magic in this household!" he yelled, "Out, OUT!"

So, as he yelled this over and over he quite rudely pushed Luna out the door and told Harry that he is

Never to have wizarding friends over again and

To go to his room where he would be fed meals through the cat flap, which they had put in in the second year, and to stay there until the holidays were over.
