Chapter 2

Harry sat up quickly. He wasn't quite as trusting of unfamiliar owls has he, perhaps, once was.

He grabbed his wand and cautiously approached the window. It was dark out but he knew that the owl could see him perfectly. And although he could not do magic outside of school, it made him feel much safer. And if push can to shove, his wand was and would always be a sharp pointy stick.

He finally reached the window and peered out of the window slowly and carefully. When all looked clear, he eased the window open with the utmost care, his Uncle was known to awaken at random. He allowed the Owl to come in by opening the bare minimum of the window. The Owl gave an indignant hoot at the treatment, but Harry knew it was necessary.

Now, Harry had a certain way with animals. He could understand them. Not by speaking or telepathy, but Harry could read their emotions and uncertainty. He could do this just by looking into their eyes. Harry had only ever confided into one person this ability, and that was Hermione. She had, in true Hermione fashion, researched the phenomenon to death. Finally 3 months to the day of his 'sharing,' Hermione found something. But in ordered for her to know if her theory was correct, Harry had to turn around and tell her about his home-life, his real home-life.

When she had finally discovered the truth, she was just a mixture of emotions. She understood that during the summer he was probably mistreated. But never to the extent that it actually was. She thought he may be having to do the majority of the chores, but doing everything? And, on top of that the physical abuse was off the charts. He remembered and told her of the time he accidentally burnt the bacon, he was burnt on his hand on purpose. It was his magic that stopped him from scarring when he has been hurt by muggle means.

Hermione, once she learned of just how far the abuse had gone, swore that he would never have to go back. And that what kind of monsters were they? And did Dumbledore know? Harry, now, was pretty sure he did and just didn't care. But he didn't say that out loud, he wanted proof before he started to make claims. So somewhat mollified that, with her promise he would never go back, she told him of what she found.

It seems that, with the way Harry was treated he has the ability to understand what people are feeling on an unprecedented level, simply because Harry has fully felt almost every single feeling that there is. Because he is achingly familiar with all of these and yet still retains some innocence and heart, they grant him the ability to see them, really see them. It's extremely rare and specialized. The last known account of this was about 200 years ago.

After-all, Hermione theorized, aren't all animals at least somewhat magical, they all know when some disaster is going to happen before it does.

So, after double checking the outside, Harry turned back to the Owl, ready and willing to apologize for the treatment when he noticed the envelope. It was a navy blue and the seal was that of Gringotts.

A/N- Sorry I couldn't get this out last night. I got my tattoo instead and was in pain and exhausted. But thanks for waiting! The next one should be up either tonight or tomorrow!
