Chapter 2
"WHAT?"
Everyone in the great hall was surprised. They were going to read about Harry's future? Everybody turned to look at him who was dumbstruck. A book about him? About his 7th year at Hogwarts?
The whispers started again, taking looks at Harry once in a while.
"A book about your future! I can't believe it! We'll find out what will happen in our 7th year!" Ron said excitedly.
"I don't understand… why is it about me?" Harry asked.
"Well you're the most famous wizard right now, of course the book would be about you and not just some normal kid." Ron said like it was obvious, "I don't know why I'm surprised."
"I'm not the most famous wizard. What about Volde... I mean You Know Who? What about Dumbledore?" Harry asked.
"Whatever…" Ron said rolling his eyes. "And what are the Deathly Hallows?"
"No idea… I grew up in the muggle world, remember?"
"Oh, yeah"
"Maybe Dumbledore will tell us," Harry said as Dumbledore tried to quiet everyone down.
"SILENCE!" Dumbledore shouted. Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at him. "This is a surprise for all of us. This book may give us a peek of the future. We, the teachers and I, have decide we are going to read the book. It will not affect us that much as our memories will be erased when we finish the book. Does anybody have a question before we start?" He looked around the room trying his best to keep his eyes off Harry.
Many questions were shouted at the same time.
"One at a time please…Ms. Chang, you first."
"Professor, how do we know this is actually from the future and not just a fake?"
"We were wondering that too, you see. So, we cast a spell on the letter to see if it tells the truth. It seems that everything in it is true. This book is really from the future…"
Everyone nodded uneasily.
"Now… Ms. Granger?"
"What are the Deathly Hallows, sir?" Hermione asked curiously. Everyone leaned in because they all wondered about that. Dumbledore sighed. He looked like he was thinking whether to tell them or not.
"I suppose it will be in the book. Any other questions?"
"Why are we even reading this? Why would we want to know about Harry's future?" Draco Malfoy asked and the other Slytherins nodded.
"Mr. Malfoy, this book is also going to be about other people because not only Harry is attending Hogwarts. It's most likely going to include you too and I suppose you want to know about your future, right? So if you have a better question please ask." Dumbledore said calmly which made Draco shut up.
"The unsorted students will sit at the Gryffindor table for now. Let's start!"
