"Here he is." Vernon said.
"Very good, come with me. The Xanatos want to talk to you before you start." The young man said.
"Okay." Harry said.
The young man introduced himself as Mr. Burnett and led Harry to the car. Then Mr. Burnett drove to an old mansion and took Harry inside. A young couple was playing with a little boy.
"Mr. Xanatos, the young man is here." Mr. Burnett said.
"Yes, thank you Owen." Mr. Xanatos said.
Mr. Burnett then left the room.
"What is your name?" Mr. Xanatos asked.
"Harry Potter, sir." Harry replied.
"You have manners, but there is no reason to call me sir." Mr. Xanatos said.
"Okay." Harry said.
"How old are you?" Mrs. Xanatos asked.
"Fourteen, ma'am." Harry replied.
"You look younger," said Mrs. Xanatos.
"Thank you, ma'am." Said Harry
"Do you think magic is real?" Mr. Xanatos asked.
"David." Mrs. Xanatos said sadly.
"What Fox? We need to know." Mr. Xanatos said.
At this time the child started to float to the ceiling. Harry saw this and smiled at Alex, who then floated back to the floor.
"Oh, Alex!" Mrs. Xanatos said.
"Harry, you see why we asked the question about magic?" Mrs. Xanatos asked.
"Yes, and I do know that magic is real, because I go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Harry replied.
"A magic school?" Mr. Xanatos said surprised.
"One minute, please." Mrs. Xanatos said.
"Puck?" Mr. Xanatos asked.
"Davey, what are you calling me for?" Puck asked.
Harry knew that Puck was not human, because he could see that with his own eyes. For some reason, that Harry did not understand, something in him told him to trust Puck.
"Have you heard of a school called Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?" asked Mr. Xanatos.
"Yeah, why?" Puck asked.
"Because, Harry here goes there." Mrs. Xanatos said.
Puck turned to look at Harry with a surprised look on his face. He had not hoped that he would be able to find a magical babysitter for young Alex.
"You are going to watch Alex?" Puck asked.
"Puck, is there a problem with this?" Mr. Xanatos asked.
"No, Davey, I know the school. If the children need to go to school, that is were we would go. Lord Oberon visited the school when it first started, and he liked what he saw so he has kept the watch up over the years." Puck said.
"Is there more?" Mrs. Xanatos asked.
"It is the top school for magic in the world and only teaches witches and wizards." Puck said.
"Okay, then it looks like we have a baby-sitter." Mr. Xanatos said.
Puck disappeared and Alex floated to his mother's arms. After she was holding him he started to laugh a very small laugh at her.
"The rules are on the table and if you need help call Puck." Mr. Xanatos said.
"Okay." Harry said.
"Here is Alex." Mrs. Xanatos said.
Mrs. Xanatos kissed Alex on the forehead and handed him to Harry. Then they went to get ready for dinner.
