Everything hurt, from the nose to the toes, everything was bruised and beaten

A/n Again, you guys totally make me happy with the fav. It helps me get the energy to continue to write because I know I have readers!! ACK, love it…. Reviews make me type happy too, -hint hint nudge nudge-

Is it just me or is this going slowly?

Well, alittle late, but I had to work so… yeah here it is!

Harry did have a lot of questions. His pen raced across the paper at lighting speed. Words seemed to write themselves as Harry's mind feverorishly worked. Later Anna helped him fix it up to sound more professional.

Hello Professor McGonagall,

I got (scratched out) received your letter but I'm dunno(scratched out) not sure if I believe you. You said (scratched out)stated that your school is "magical". I dunno(scratched out) don't see how this is true(scratched out) possible. I have been taught the rules of science and math. This magic does not come into the rules(scratched out) equation. But (scratched out)Yet, things have happened to me that cannot be explained. I set loose a snake at the zoo, my hair can never be cut, and some times when my cousin is chasing me I can run away faster then I normally run. Maybe this magic has something to do with it.

Your letter also mentioned I would be needing books, a wand, and potions ingredients. I have no idea where to find these things, it they do exist.

Also I would like to know if you know anything about my parents.

Yours truly,

Harry Potter

At first Harry was not sure how to send it. There was no address on the envelope. So Harry decided to put the letter on the door mat where he found the first letter, maybe this magic could send it. Harry waited until everyone was asleep at the Dursely's before setting down the letter. He trusted them as far as he could throw his uncle. Seeing as how Harry couldn't even lift the man, there was no trust.

By morning the letter had been replaced by another letter. Harry hastily ripped the letter open in the safety of his cupboard.

Dear Mr. Potter.

We were unaware that your guardians had not informed you of your parents, or the wizarding world. We shall send an envoy on the morrow. He will bring you to Diagon alley to purchase your school supplies. He will also answer all your questions as best he can. Just remember, do not be almared by his side.

We also see it is best that you want for him some where else besides your Ante, and Uncle's house. They may try to stop you. Please leave a note on your doorstep tonight on the meeting location.

Yours truly,

Professor McGonagall

Harry's hands trembled with excitement. It was all true every word. He was finally being answered. Quickly Harry grabbed a piece of loose leaf and wrote.

Professor McGonagall,

I will wait for the messenger at number 10 Privet Drive at 10 o' clock. Thank you so much for writing back.

Harry Potter

………………………………………

The next day Harry sat at Anna's kitchen table explaining to Anna.

"Anna, this school, it really does exist. They're sending some one here to so I can go get school stuff. This must mean magic exists. It's got to, how else could they respond?" Harry jabbered with excitement rising in his voice.

The clock struck ten.

A bomb shuddered the house. Another and another. Harry got to his feet and slowly walked toward the door. His hand trembled as he reached for the knob and turned. The door creaked open to reveal the envoy.

The man, if it was a man, stood taller then the doorway, he bent down to try to squish in. This resulted in the whole doorway breaking into pieces. Harry fell backward as he desperately tried to run into the kitchen. Anna stood there in a horrified shock.

"Ah… sorry 'bout that." The giant's voice boomed out. He uprighted himself and looked around. "Thar' you are 'arry!"

Harry sputtered and tried to scuttle back wards. He felt Anna's hands pull him up and drag him backward.

"No, no!" The giant smiled warmly. "I'm 'ere to 'elp… sorry about the door…." Again he looked back guiltily.

"Ruebous 'agrid, but muh friends call me 'agrid, keeper of the keys of 'ogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry!"

"Are you all this tall?" Harry managed to gasp. Hagrid let out a booming laugh.

………………………………..

Anna had finally let Hagrid into the back yard and sit. She sat down next to Harry protectively and set a fierce scowl on her face.

However Hagrid looked at Anna with mild curiosity. To him her features were almost, too flawless. With her wide brown eyes, that complemented her silk brown hair, which perfectly framed her delicate face. There was also an air to her. It was an air of high being, not haughty, but something more.

"Please Mr. Hagrid, can I ask you something, they said you'd answer my questions." Harry squirmed in his sit. He was too exited to be afraid.

"Call me 'agrid, 'arry that's what everyone calls me. As fer, yer questions fire away."

…………………………………………….

It had Taken nearly nearly four hours to answer all of Harry's questions, and for Hagrid to answer. The first questions were the hardest.

"Do, you know what happened to my parents?" Harry asked, his hand clenched together, have not want to know, but half needing to. It took Hagrid along time to respond. His large eyes seemed to water. He buried them in a massive spotted handkerchief.

. He explained haltingly that his parents had not died in a car crash, but inside had been murdered. "Not all wizards are good 'arry, in fact some on just plain bad." The murder had been the raging dark wizard at the time. It took Hagrid awhile choke out the name.

Lord Voldmort

The name made Harry feel chills. He wanted the dire tale to end, but it did not. Hagrid continued on in his tale. It turned out when Voldmort turned his wand upon Harry, the spell rebounded and left only a scar on his head.

"'arry in the wizarding world, yer a 'ero. The boy 'o lived and defeat 'e 'o must not be named." Hagrid smiled down at him. "yew'll be jist foine 'arry, jist foine"

But Harry did not feel 'jist foine'. He felt the pit in his stomach widen. He was not left with time to think however Hagrid began to stand.

"We better be on our way 'arry. Things to do, see, and buy." Hagrid started towards the door. Anna scooped up her hand bag and started to follow.

"Er… I dunno if you can come." Hagrid shifted from one foot to the other, the house shook. Anna just glared, daring him to question her again. "Well… I guess yew can wait at a coffee shop…."

"Hagrid, what will I do for money?" Harry interrupted the silent battle. Hagrid laughed.

"Oh, yer parents left yew a little sumthing."
