Prologue
Harry opened his eyes to the darkness of his room. Not sure of what had woken him, Harry searched for his glasses. Peering out into the street, he found no sight of any magical presence. After checking the sky, Harry turned around and came face to face with what had woken him.
"Dobby! What are you doing here?" Harry said in a harsh whisper.
"Oh, Dobby is sorry, but he wanted to tell Harry Potter something very exciting indeed -"
There was a sudden POP and winky appeared. She seemed quite upset.
"Dobby please! I says not to tells!"
"Tell me what?" Harry asked.
"Winky found a new master!" Dobby blurted out.
"You mean you won't be at Hogwarts anymore?" Harry asked again. Winky was teary eyed and shook her head. "Well, who is it?" The question was more directed towards Dobby than Winky.
Dobby was about to answer, but then he heard Winky sob. He looked down at his feet, then lookd back up to Harry with less enthusiasm and said, "Harry Potter will find out later this summer."
With that, Dobby popped and and Winkly followed closely behind.
Harry sighed, he would expect that he'd be used to these odd things, after all, he'll be turning 16 and he's already witnessed some amazing, horrible, and magical things.
