Unexpected Letters
Albus Dumbledor looked down at the letter from the headmaster of a school in the US. It said that he need to see him at once. Deciding that he had a Order meeting in 2 days, then he would go.
An unexpected development, what could that mean? Little did Dumbledor know that he was in for the shock of his life
Suddenly the door to the Minister of Magic's door burst open as his secretary cased a snowy owl in, and it set a letter on his desk. The Secretary said "sorry I tried to stop in it."
Minister Fudge looked at it and saw that it was addressed to him. He also noticed the in the corner it said; From: Harry Potter. "This one I think that this one I will answer on my own, thank you."
Opening it he read:
Minster Fudge,
I know that recently we have not been on the best of terms because of the whole Voldemort thing. In the interest of the wizarding community, I think that you, Dumbledor, and I set our deferences a side and work together for one common goal.
That said there are a few things that I need help with. I would like a special exemption for the decree against underage magic. I am not asking for full rights. Like it or not, I am a major target for Voldemort, more so then most. As much, I need to be prepared. I am willing to allow for an auror to over see my training, I have a few that I know and trust. You can understand my desire to work with people I know and trust.
Also, as I am sure you know, my relatives are muggle. I would like to learn how to make portkeys for their safety. It would also have advantages with sending injured for help after a battle. I also think that learning to apperate is important.
On a side note, I think that getting a summer defense/dueling class together might be a good idea.
Respectfully,
Harry Potter
P.S. The fewer people who know about this the better, don't you agree?
P.P.S. I would also appreciate it if you would nudge your assistant Percy Weasley to mend his relationship with his family.
Minister Fudge sat back and thought about the letter. 'He makes a lot of good points, I can justify all of it.' A smirk crossed his face 'perhaps I can gain from this'
As Harry sat reading after dinner, he was surprised as a pompus looking owl flew through the window and dropped a letter. Picking it up he saw the Minister Magic seal on it. 'That was quick' he thought. He opened it and started reading.
Mr Potter,
I was pleasently surprised to receiver your letter. I agree with you about the need to work together. I would vary much appreciate it if you would put a good word out for me. This thing with he-who-must-not-be-named, has left me in trouble. I grant your request to be exempted from the Decree Against Underage Magic and the apperation age restriction. I will also grant your request for portkeys for your family.
I am curius, why you are interested in Mr. Percy Weasley's family.
Cornelius Fudge
Minster of Magic
Harry was stuned. He hadn't expected to get permission that easily. The part about supporting him, well that was an understandable request. In fact, it was almost too easy. He decided to ask dumbledor how to procede, and to do that he would have to stop past Ms. Figg's house.
Deciding there was nothing more he could do, he returned to his reading.
