~ALBUS DUMBLEDORE~

Once returned from the picnic, Tom had a moment of silence. To think about his special ability and what he intended to do as he grew older. Just as Tom started to doze off a loud shout was heard,

"Tom, a man has come to see you!"

Tom was both excited and confused. He never had a visitor before and who would ever want to see him. Besides, it was Tom's eleventh birthday and he should have been torturing his two favorite victims.

Tom closely eyed the man from a distance only to be returned by a friendly smile. Albus Dumbledore was his name and he was dressed in great curiosity. He wore a long darkly coloured cloak closely followed by a long slivery-white beard. which was down to his bellybutton. Dumbledore wore a short box shaped hat with a little decorated piece of string then gathered into a bunch.

Tom felt that this man was more than just Albus Dumbledore, he was someone else entirely. Dumbledore walked towards Tom, looking at him, as though he was examining him. Of course this came as a surprise as when Albus spoke. He spoke with great force as though a mega phone were there. Albus had said something along the lines of this,

"I know what you have done and I know you are different from the others. You're a wizard Tom"

Tom almost fainted,

"Wizard did you say? You've got to be joking, i'm no wizard of yours."

After that Albus spoke again,

"Would you like me to prove it? Because you seem a little started."

And with that Toms wardrobe set on fire.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE! Storming in here setting my wardrobe on fire! I have valuable possessions in there!"

"Well maybe once you promise to rerun the favour by returning everything you have stolen then, huh?" said Albus Dumbledore.

"Waaa? How do you know? Just take out the fire!" Asked Tom extremely dumbfounded.

Then with a wave of Dumbledores wand the fire left the wardrobe completely untouched. Tom stared at him as though as miracle just took place. A few minutes later, Tom decided to refuse to give back what he stole.

Then Dumbledore spoke, "If you want to come to Hogwarts, stealing is not permitted. So, you'll give them back will you?"

Tom was very reluctant but all of the possessions were returned anyhow. A few minutes later and Tom had returned, suddenly questioning,

"What is Hogwarts, and why do i have to go there?"

"Well," began Dumbledore, "Hogwarts is a place where many children come to learn magic, and where hopefully you too. I will come and collect you the next day, and then we will go to Diagon Alley."

But before Tom had the chance to speak, Albus Dumbledore had left in the blink of an eye.
