Harry and Dudley came in and sat down on the floor looking up at Petunia who was smiling slightly. They were both five by now. "Harry you know don't you that you are not my son but Dudley's cousin. When your parents died we took you in raising you as our own son. I have something to tell the both of you now as you are not normal boys but very special ones indeed!" she said as they both looked at her in excitement. "Mummy you have to say that we're special your the mum silly!" said Dudley laughing and making her chuckle with him.
"Dudley you and Harry here are Wizards and you can do magic. Remember us telling you this when you were three years old the both of you. Now your father and I can't do magic but you two can which makes you extremely special. Now you can't tell anyone about it or mummy and daddy will get in trouble for it as we said before. You have your own world called the wizarding world and we will be visiting it soon to look around. Now Harry you know that your mum and dad died but they left me a job to show you a collection of memories of how they loved you before they died. First I must tell you a story of how they went to heaven" she said pausing to think of how best to tell him all he needed to know.
"There once was a bad evil man named Tom Marvolo Riddle. He felt very powerful and he was happy because he was very mean and no one could ever stop him being mean. One day when he was older he decided to change his name to Lord Voldermort. As he grew up he became more mean and started killing and hurting lots of people and everyone in the land was afraid of him. One day when he was in the village he heard a story about himself he didn't like. Someone was talking of his future and about what would happen to him and he heard that your parents would kill him and stop him from being so mean to everyone. He didn't want to die yet as he was not finished being mean and so he went to kill James, Lily and there son Harry. James and Lily had a friend called Peter Pettigrew who was supposed to keep the location of where they were living a secret but he was also a friend of Lord Voldermort's. Lord Voldermort scared him and so he told him where his other friends James and Lily lived. Lord Voldermort went to their home. He killed James first and then Lily. When he went to kill young Harry the curse he was using backfired killing him instead. Harry killed the bad evil dark Lord Voldermort and had a scar on his face because of it."
"All over England Harry was celebrated as the boy who lived as he was the only person to ever survive the killing curse and destroy the evil lord in the process. A friend of James and Lily's left Harry at the door of Petunia and Vernon's house. When Harry was two years old his scar disappeared and he grew up to be a healthy and happy boy. This is the story of what happened to your parents Harry!" she said as she hugged the now crying boy close. "Did James and Lily know I loved them?" he asked as the tears fell. "Yes Harry they did know that. This is why Lily asked me to become your mum when she went away!" she said as he smiled slightly. "Thank you for telling me mum!" he said kissing her cheek and snuggling into her embrace some more.
"Ok so now you know you are wizards both of you there are some rules we must follow. Every wizard gets a wand when he is eleven years old and he is never allowed to use it at home or anywhere except his school and the schools train. These are the rules we must follow" she said as Dudley finally spoke. "Does that mean we can't do magic until we go to big school? That's not fair!" he pouted looking adorable. "No it doesn't. Dudley, Harry there is a special type of magic which cannot be traced anywhere called wandless magic where you do all the magic you want to anywhere you want to just without a wand. You must never tell anyone you know wandless magic until you are seventeen years old ok? Now I will be teaching you how to do some spells and so on using wandless magic the best way I can. I will be learning about it too so we can all learn together won't that be fun?" said Petunia genuinely delighted she'd finally have the chance to know about some magic even if she wasn't magical herself.
She opened the book she had in her hand telling each of the boys to make a vow that would not tell anyone of their wandless magic until they were seventeen as the book had recommended she do. She just had them read it off the page but they glowed white to prove they were being honest and would never tell anyone about it. "What will be learning first?" asked Dudley in joy. "Ok first I will teach you about wandless magic to the best of my ability. You need to believe that whatever you are asking for can happen and it will. If you believe you can do something it will happen for you automatically. Don't ever doubt yourselves ok. Now the first spell we will learn today is called the summoning spell. This is used to find something when you can't find it. Now the words to the spell are accio but with wandless magic you need to say the words in your head and not out loud. When you use a wand you have to say the words out loud. Do you understand? Remember when you are saying the spell always say it in your head and not out loud with your mouth. So in a moment call out accio followed by an item you can't find and it should come to you!" she said happily as both boys were ecstatic at trying out their first bit of magic.
After a few goes they were ready to try it for real now. Accio toy car! Said Dudley in his head the car flying to his hands from upstairs. Accio Mr cuddles! Said Harry as his long lost teddy bear came to him making him smile. They spent the rest of the day practicing this charm both boys loving it. The boys were so excited and such quick learners that by the end of twelve weeks they could effortlessly summon lost things, change their clothes, clean their rooms and or any room they tried to clean and redecorate their room something they had wanted to learn on their own. Harry had found the spell in a book and he'd forced himself and Dudley to learn it and so now they had a deep teal coloured room with lovely moving stars on the walls. Petunia was shocked at how much they had learned as time wore on. As the months rolled by they learned all about Legillimency and Occlumency. They often practiced every single day. Should anyone try to enter Dudley's mind without his knowledge or him allowing it they would find themselves inside his video games console with no clue how to go any further. For Harry it was a cupboard filled to the brim with VHS tapes. Soon enough their eleventh birthdays came one after the other and they both got the usual letters and lists of things they'd need.
They left in the morning for Diagon Alley following the instructions in the book. Dumbledore had sent Hagrid but both boys who were now extremely advanced wandless magic wise after over five years of non stop training made him go somewhere and have a great time for hours believing he'd left their tickets with them both and gotten the their things. Dumbledore thankfully was none the wiser that night when Hagrid returned saying that the Dursley's were only too happy to be rid of him for the day and handed over the philosopher stone. They went to the leaky cauldron pub and entered the bar. Petunia approached the bar and Tom came over to her.
"Good morning kind man I was wondering if you might show me the way onto the alley as I need to buy my twin boys their school things. They are muggleborn you see!" she said kindly as he smiled at her. "Of course my dear right this way!" he said as he lead them outside to the back of the pub. He showed them the code for getting in and out of the Alleyway. When the gates opened the boys had to pretend to be shocked having been here many times before via apparition but choosing to go the normal route today. They had all the money they would need with Harry's funds and he was more then happy to get them everything they would need. They went first into Madam Malkin's robes for all occasions to be measured.
"Good morning my dears Hogwarts uniforms I see. Well there's a young boy being measured back here as well. Wait here with him while I get his robes please and then I'll see to you!" she said as she left. They entered the back of the shop to see a stroppy blonde boy pushing everything around in a tantrum of sorts. He stopped when they entered. "Who are you?" he demanded. "I am Harry Dursley and this is my cousin Dudley Dursley!" he said seriously. "I've never heard of the name Dursley. What class are you? Pureblood, half blood or what?" he said as they both looked surprised at his blunt question.
"Oh well we're both muggleborns!" said Harry happily. "Oh right then mudbloods I see!" he said with a sneer as though they were infecting him by being in the same space as him. With a subtle flick of his wrist Dudley had tied the boys shoelaces together making him fall on his face when he moved again. "Don't say such a bad word! The right term is muggleborn and you will not say otherwise again!" snapped Dudley while Harry loosened his pants making it fall down around his ankles as he stood up. "Never and I mean never cross a Dursley!" they both said high fiving as the boys father came in. "Draco! What is the meaning of this?" he shouted. "These mudbloods did this to me!" he snapped his father's attention going straight to the boys standing their. "Oh did they?!" he snapped drawing his wand.
No sooner had he done so then his own tie was strangling him while they both stood there innocent looking. It was only as his face started turning blue that they stopped. He coughed loudly and looked up in shock. "Mark my words mudbloods! You'll be next! And Draco stop lying. I know they are mudbloods but they are not even in school and couldn't have done this to you. It was an old colleague of mine who did this to us both because we are not paying attention to what we're supposed to be doing today. Either that or he felt like it. Next time just insult the damn mudbloods and leave!" he snapped waving his wand as his tie came off and Draco was righted again. He smacked Draco across the back of the head making him flinch before dragging him from the room. The lady then returned. "Ok now boys hold out your arms please while we measure you both. Is it just school robes my dears?" she asked politely. "Actually ma'am we need two robes of every colour and design you have for everyday wear and smart wear also. Can you please make all of our robes grow with us as we do? Thank you so very much for taking the time to see us in your busy day" said Harry politely making Petunia and Vernon who were now in the corner so proud. They had both come in with Madame Malkin as the Malfoy's left. Madame Malkin gushed at his manners. "Such manners for a young child. Indeed my dear I can do this and I thank you so much the both of you for your kindness as not many wizards appreciate what I do. I have your measurements now. Please stand both of you on these podiums while I pin your uniforms to fit you exactly. Ok now stand still good boy!" she said as Harry winced many pins hitting him in the arms and legs.
Dudley also winced himself but remained silent on how sore he really was. Fifteen minutes later and they were done. "Come back in two hours and it will all be done for you enjoy your shopping boys!" she said smiling brightly at the boys. "Thank you so much for being so kind ma'am!" said Dudley smiling as they left the shop. Next they went to the book store which was called Flourish and Blotts. As they were there Harry saw a best selling series of books based on him only in these books he had a scar and glasses and was battling a dark lord in one, a dragon in another and saving a princess in one of them. He bought them all as well as his school books. They were all shocked at how fast the school books were done and ready to go. Next they went to the wand shop to get a wand.
"Hello is anyone in here?" asked Harry making the disillusioned Ollivander 'accidentally' fall over as he looked for him. "Wow Mr Dursley sir. I wondered when I'd be seeing you and your cousin. It's been ages since we've had some fresh blood in here and it's amazing. Now then Dudley isn't it? Yes ok please step forward. Which arm is your wand arm?" he asked Dudley who smiled at him.
"Sir my wand arm is my right arm as is Harry's here!" he answered in excitement making old Ollivander chuckle. "Such excitement in one so young is refreshing. Try this ebony twelve inches with a dragon heartstring core. It's pliable and very good for charm works!" he said as Dudley waved the wand red and gold sparks flying from it's tip. As expected Harry took ages to find and it seemed Ollivander was extremely reluctant to sell him the phoenix core and holly wand which he had been saving for Harry Potter. He had no choice but to sell him the wand. No one knew of course that because Petunia and Vernon had adopted him he now bore their surname here as well as his own. However he often just referred to himself as a Dursley as it was easier and meant he could shop without being heckled constantly. They paid for their wands and left going into the apothecary store next door where they got all of their potions supplies and brass scales. They both got their trunks with protection on them from stealing and had them engraved DD and HPD respectively. They both went to the broom shop buying the latest models and storing them away along with all of the stuff they'd need for quidditch next year. It helped to be well organised. They went then to Sugarplums sweet shop buying a years supply of sweets each. They went lastly to the magical Menagerie where Harry chose a snow white owl he named Hedwig. Dudley picked a black owl he called Davis. They collected their clothes and stored them all in their trunks and headed to the bank.
Petunia entered nervously. She approached the cashiers desk the Goblin asking her what she wanted. "May your enemies blood flow in a river before you good Goblin!" she said as he gasped looking up at her. "And may your vaults overflow with gold and riches that are everlasting. I can see there is one more wizarding family who are kind and polite to us which is wonderful. Mrs Dursley I can see you have your son and young Harry Potter Dursley with you. Mrs Dursley what can we do for you today?" he asked her kindly. She gestured to Harry to say what he wanted to. "Kind Goblin here is a set of books written about me which I knew nothing about nor did I agree to having written about me. Tell this author that Harry Potter is suing her for slander as these things are false. Not only have I never done any of these things I don't even look like him clearly. Tell me when it is done and take ten percent of the money she has made for yourself and enjoy it. We will be flooing home now" he said doing just that leaving the goblin in shock.
They would be leaving for Hogwarts in a few days and it was so exciting. They'd promised to write Petunia once a week each and she was content with that. Harry had seen all the memories of his mother and father some of which he wished he'd not seen such as they joy his father got from tormenting and severely bullying a man named Severus Snape or as they called him. He would be dealing with this man once he arrived at school if he could find him that is. He fell into his bed that night quite happy as Hedwig and Davis slept at the ends of their beds. This was amazing.
