Chapter 2:Into the Wild

"Hello Lightning," the tom said. "Uh... My name is Harry sir. Why are you her-' Just then Dudley, Vernon, and Petunia walked in to them. As soon as Dudley saw the visitor he tried to run away. Before he could Vernon put his paw on his sons tail so he couldn't leave. Harry would have found that amusing but he was focused on the tom. His vision went blurry and his forehead started to throb.

"Hagrid, take him somewhere safe." "Alrigh'. But he'll end up being a kitty-pet for the beginning of his life. Are you sure this is the bes' for him?" 'Hagrid is the stranger,' Harry realized.'And I must be who their talking about.' But who was the other cat? Harry's vision went black for a second and the first thing he saw was two blood-red eyes staring into his. Then burning sensation in his head and he cried out in pain.

"'Arry! Are you alrigh'? You fell down and started wailing after I started talking," the tom, Hagrid, meowed. Before Harry could explain Petunia yowled,"GET OUT OF OUR HOUSE! TAKE HARRY WITH YOU, JUST LEAVE!" "Wait, you know why he's here?" Harry asked. "I'm here to take you to the forest," and when Hagrid saw the confused look on Harry's face he sighed. "'Arry, your mother and father were Clan cats. There are four Clans. GryffindorClan is for the brave, RavenclawClan is for the smart, SlytherinClan is for the sneaky and cunning,and HufflepuffClan is for the loyal. Your parents were in GryffindorClan and they were killed by the Dark Lord who had killed many more before them. But when he tried to kill you, just a little kitten, he failed and you got that scar on your forehead. The only good thing that happened was that the Dark Lord disappeared. When Silverstar found you he sent me to give you to a good home."

It was a lot for Harry to take in. "So you're here to take me to the forest?" Harry asked. "Yes. And my names Hagrid by the way, sorry for not saying it earlier. The reason I called you Lightning was because that's what your parents named you." All Harry did was look at his adopted family. They just sat there. Harry looked back to Hagrid and said, "I'm going with you to the Clans." Hagrid nodded and went to the cat door. Neither of them looked at the kitty-pets behind them.

As soon as they were hidden in the shadows of the night, Harry's old owner pulled into his driveway. "Are you ready for your new life 'Arry?" "Don't call me Harry. My name is Lightning."
