Disclaimer- I do not own Harry Potter or the characters in the book. (I wish I did)
A/n- This is my first fan fiction and I hope that you like it. I'm bad with the facts so if I screw something up please don't yell at me just tell me and I will fix it. It will take me extra long to get out chapters to because I'm really bad at writing and I'm having to have my friend proof read them and tell me if any facts are screwed up. And I would like to thank you Katie for helping so I won't screw up as much and if you need something to do read her story "Worse than Crucio" by Katie Lupin Black. And PLEASE REIEW my story even if you hate it.
Chapter 1 – The Unexpected Arrival
Harry was having another terrible day at the Dursley's. They had left Harry alone since he had gotten home because they were scared of Lupin and Tonks turning up at the door and what the neighbors would think. Uncle Vernon wasn't happy about being threatened by the Order and any time he talked bad about the Order Harry would mention Hedwig looking a little sick and being unable to send letters for a couple weeks. That always shut up Uncle Vernon. The Dursleys even gave Harry an allowance from the bottom of their hearts of five pounds.
Harry woke up July first like he had every other day he was forced to live at the Dursleys. Harry grabbed his glasses from his night stand and opened his eyes. It was still dark out side the sun wasn't even emitting a glow on the sky. He looked over at his cheap alarm clock the Dursleys had given him. The clock showed it was 5:07. Harry thought to himself great because he had just gone to sleep a little after midnight and knew he would be exhausted by the middle of the day. He decided just to get along with it so he made his way down to the kitchen to grab a piece of toast and hurried up stairs so that he wouldn't run into his aunt and uncle. Harry snuck back into his room and finished his toast. The sun had barely come up by the time he had finished it so he switched into a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and snuck out the front door. He didn't have a watch and didn't care if he didn't come home till after the Dursleys had dinner because he was never invited to eat with them. He was strolling along and had only passed some old guy who looked like he was going to cough up a lung because he was coughing so hard. Harry didn't care where he ran he just wanted to run because it cleared his mind and he didn't think about anything when he ran; Sirus, his friends at Grimmauld Place and even Hogwarts left his mind. Harry had circled Privet drive five times when he finally stopped at the playground down the street from number four Privet Drive. The place was deserted, just how he wanted it he didn't want to associate with any of the muggels that lived on Privet Drive. Harry started to run one more lap around Privet Drive as he turned the corner he saw a flash and stopped for a second. He figured it was just a light so he started running again and about twenty minuets later he ended up on his aunt and uncle's door step.
Harry started to open the door when heard Uncle Vernon say, "Here comes that bloody runt right now."
Harry calmly pushed open the door and started to head up the stairs and before Uncle Vernon could say another comment Harry said, "You might want to watch what you say my hand might get cramps and I might not be able to write to my friends."
Uncle Vernon angrily responded, "That won't work any more because your bloody friends showed up twenty minuets ago while you where out strolling the neighborhood."
"What, they're here right know?" Harry said as he smiled for the first time in a week. "Where are they?" Harry demanded.
"They're up in your room. Why don't you hurry up and go join them and get out of my house before the neighbors start talking about the strangers that showed up this morning," screamed Aunt Petunia.
"Oh yeah the neighbors already know because you bloody idiots yelled at me with the door open," Harry smirked as he ran up the stairs to see who had come to save him from this stupid house. Harry busted through the door slamming it into someone as the made a thud as they hit the floor.
"That's a great way to thank a friend for risking his neck to save you from these muggels," responded a familiar voice.
"Fred, what are you doing here?" asked Harry in a suspicious voice.
"We are here to save you from these muggle that Dumbledore has you stuck with," responded Fred.
"Does Dumbledore know that you two are here helping me escape?" asked Harry as he looked around for some older Order members and didn't see any.
"Well just start packing up, mate, we need to hurry," responded Fred as he smirked at Harry's question. Harry started throwing things in his trunk. He had finished packing up which didn't take to long because he had barely had time to unpack. Harry sat down on his bed as he saw George exit his aunt and uncle's bedroom. George walked in with a smirk on his face as he put a bag of Weasley wizard wheezes in his pocket.
"George my cousin's room is on the right not the left," Harry told George as he turned around and walked back into Uncle Vernon's and Aunt Petunia's room. He came back out with a handful of candy and went into Dudley's room as Fred started to stack up Harry's things. George entered Harry's room with a devilish smirk on his face. "So is it only you two who came?" asked Harry as he fed Hedwig a little food.
"What do you not think we could pull this off by ourselves?" asked Fred, acting as if he was hurt by Harry's comment.
"No, I was just wondering," responded Harry. "So how do we plan to get to Grimmauld Place you two," asked Harry as he thought about how he was going to get to Grimwald Place.
"Well, since we are carrying all this bloody junk, we are going to leave this behind and Fred and I will apparate back to get it. Us three will use the Knight Bus to get to Grimmauld Place," responded George, acting all proud of their plan.
"But what about me? I am very recognizable; it's hard to disguise the fact that I'm the Famous Harry Potter," asked Harry, knowing that they needed to be safe about how they got Harry to Grimmauld Place.
"You have underestimated our planning, Harry. We have a special new candy that is still in the experimental stage. It works kinda like a Polyjuice potion, but don't worry it can't harm you," George informed Harry as he thought about what experimental meant to the twins. Harry ate the candy and he recognized the taste. He almost barfed: it tasted like the Polyjuice potion he had drank in his second year at Hogwarts. The three of them left the house with evil stares from Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia. Right before they shut the door Harry heard Uncle Vernon yell you never co... and the thud of the door shut it out. Fred made sure no one was looking and when he was positive the coast was clear he did the Lumos spell like Harry had done in his third year to call the Knight bus. The bus pulled up and they walked across the lawn. Fred got on first and asked the driver for a private floor and after the driver grumbled something at Fred who gave him some candy and they got the top floor to themselves.
As Harry loaded the Knight Bus there was a different person to greet him than Stan, the person on the Knight Bus that had greeted him in his third year. Harry started to walk towards the stairs when the dude at the door said, "You look nice, what's your name?" The twins busted out laughing as Harry's face turned bright red and he ran up the stairs to the top floor before anyone could make another comment to him.
"What did you two make me look like?" yelled Harry as he got to the top of the stairs. "Give me a mirror," demanded Harry.
"You don't want one," responded Fred. The twins bugged Harry the whole way to Grimmauld place about how nice he looked and made comments like 'I want to go out with you.' The Knight Bus stopped and the looked out the window and it was a familiar looking place.
They walked down the stairs and right before they got off George said, "You look better than Professor Snape in a dress at least Harry." Even Harry started laughing. When the twins stopped laughing Harry looked up and he suddenly stopped laughing as well and wanted to get back on the Knight Bus just as speed off.
