Nothing much is happening right now, so that chapters are going to be kinda short until Harry actually starts school

Chapter 4 - Settling in or the Keeper of Keys

Hagird knocked on the door again. The weather was awful but since Harry's birthday only came once a year. It would be a lie to say that he wasn't excited to see Harry again. It had been too long since he had left him. He had always thought that leaving him with those Dursley's was a bad idea but Dumbledore said that it was the best choice so that's what they they did.

He knocked fairly loudly so that he could be heard over the rain. He couldn't hear anything from inside so he decided to knock again. Unfortunately, he knocked a little to hard and the door fell to the ground. The entire family was there in the main room.

He came inside, having to stoop to keep from hitting his head on the ceiling, and put the door back in place before turning back to the family. "Couldn't make us a cup o' tea could yeh?" he said, "It's not been an easy journey..." He saw Harry and his cousin sitting on the couch. Petunia was over in the corner hiding behind her husband. "Budge you, yeh great lump." he said to the other boy. He jumped up with a squeak and ran to his mother, like a little baby.

He looked at Harry and he could see the James and Lily in him. "An' here's Harry!" he smiled at him. "Las' time I saw you, you was only a baby. Yeh look a lot like yer dad, but yeh've got her mom's eyes." Dusley made an annoying noise behind him. He wanted to ignore him but then Dursely said, "I demand that you leave at once, sir! You are breaking and entering!"

Hagrid was annoyed with him but he didn't need to start anything. "Ah, shut up, Dursley, yeh great prune." he turned around and twisted the gun into a knot before turning back to Harry. Harry looked amazed at what he just did. "Anyway, Harry" he continued, "A very happy birthday to yeh. Got summat her yeh here. I mighta sat on it at some point, but it'll taste all right." he pulled out the cake from inside his coat that he had brought for him.

The box had gotten squished a little bit but it still looked alright. He gave it to Harry. The poor boy was nearly shaking as he opened the little box. The chocolate cake was still OK, the words 'Harry Birthday Harry' were still very readable in their green icing.

Harry looked like he was shocked. He looked up at him like he was at a loss for words, "Who are you?" Hagird could help but chuckle a bit. "True, I haven't introduced meself. Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts." He held out his hand to shack his hand, but he ended up engulfing Harry's tiny arm.

He spent the rest of the evening explaining to Harry that he is actually a wizard after bringing out the food that he had brought with him. It was an uncomfortable subject, but he had to explain 'You-Know-Who' as well.

He was very angry that they lied to Harry, to tell him that that they died in a car accident. He had even lost his temper as one pointand tried to cast a spell so turn the little Dursley brat into pig. Luckily it didn't work completely. He had planned to take Harry to get his school supplies in the morning.
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii*iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii*iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii*

Firo saw all the books that were delivered, and was very grateful for Ennis' help moving them up to the castle. Although he didn't actually do anything, Czes also came along. He had been curious about the castle. They could see it from the village but seeing it up close was something else. They moved everything up to the school with a spell to levitate all of them at once. Czeslaw decided to sit atop of the books as floated across the ground.

Along with the stacks upon stacks of books, there was also several boxes without labels. There was a letter on top of it. Before they began moving the books, Ennis picked up the letter and began to read out loud, As she was reading it the books fell to the ground with a heavy thud.

Congratulations Firo,
we are confident that you will be a wonderful teacher. We went over the school supplies list and thought that these would come in handy for your students. Don't forget to tell us all of the wonderful things that happen in England. I am proud of you and am certain that we will do well.
Sincerely, Don Martello

He smiled as she read it. It was short but sweet, and it was good to know that the Martillo's really cared about him. He opened up one of the boxes and found that it was full of mechanical pencils and erasers. With all the boxes, there should be enough to give each student two or three. "We should up to the castle." Czes interrupted them. As the other two nodded, they saw an elderly man walking toward them.

When he got a little closer Firo raised a hand into the air, "Hello Professor Dumbledore." Dumbledore smiled and nodded in his direction. "Good morning Professor Prochainezo." Firo made a face as Czes snickered and Ennis smiled behind him. "That still sounds weird." Firo mumbled.

He then turned to towards them, "This is my wife Ennis and my little brother, Czes." "It nice to meed you both." greeted Dumbledore. Czeslaw hopped off the books and walked to Dumbledore to shake his hand. "Hello," he said to the Headmaster, "its a pleasure to meet you sir." Dumbledore's eyes sparkled, "It is a pleasure to meet you as well, I hope that you will have a pleasant say in the village."

Ennis smiled and stepped forward to shake his hand as well, "The entire family would like to thank you for the opportunity that you are giving Firo. This will be interesting for all of us." Dumbledore turned her attention to her, "I'm glad you feel that way. If they is anything you need, please feel free to come to me."

"Actually," said Firo, "could I decorate the classroom? I've got some paint, but it's nothing that can't be taken off easily." Dumbledore clasped his hands in front of him. "Of course. This classroom with be yours for the year. You can put any decoration that will help the students learn." "Alright." Answered Firo, "I'm going to spend a bit to time setting up, then we should go to Diagon Alley."

"Ah," Dumbledore interrupted, "I would like for you to attend a meeting with the other teachers. All of them are here except Professor Quirrell and Madam Hooch. They should be here before too long, but I will brief them later." Firo nodded, "Yeah, I'd loved to meet them."
