Harry Potter and the Orb of Tiac
Chapter Two - Oh My How Rude
A/N - Well I have posted the next chapter as you people seem to think it is pretty good. Now a few of you have questioned my ability to write a story about Cute and Fluffy Dark Creatures. To you all I say, piffle. I hope you all have an open mind as you read this chapter, because the story takes another twist and Chapter 3 holds Dark Lords wearing some very umm.. fashionable clothes. Oh Dear.
You should all be very scared. I just finished the outline for the story and it is a bit weird. The ratings going to have to go up as people are not going to live very long unfortunatally.
Please Read and Review!! Some comments to readers who read chapter one are at the bottom!!
Chapter Two - Oh My How Rude
****************************
Harry froze in shock and didn't even move when his glasses slipped down his nose. He rubbed the dull ache in his scar as with a slightly shaking hand he opened the letter from the Weaslys.
"Dear Harry,
Happy Birthday! Did you read the article from the 'Daily Prophet' yet? It is really spooky - Dad has been working overtime at the Minstry for a few weeks now, trying to stop the Dark Creatures. Fudge still won't believe it is Voldemort but he is just about the only one. Every one is scared that Voldemort is going to whip round a corner and kill them all.
I hope you liked your present - I got it custom made for you in Diagon Alley a few days ago in Quality Quidditch Supplys. They have stacks of awesome things now.
Do you know who the 5th year Gryffindor prefects are yet? Hermione has been kept in suspense she told me when she wrote.
You and Hermione are coming to stay with us tomorrow we'll pick you up at 11 o'clock, don't worry, in our new car.
Cheers Mate,
Ron"
"Well," Harry thought, "I have missed a lot."
Harry stuffed everything under the loose floorboard so Dudley wouldn't get at it and stumbled downstairs to breakfast where he could he Aunt Petunia shrieking about what a
lazy boy he was. He grabbed a slice of toast off the table before turing to Uncle Veron to tell him he would be staying at Rons house for the rest of the summer, starting tomorrow.
"How are you getting there - those ruddy weirdos arn't going to destroy half the house again are they? And when are you going, what time?" Uncle Veron spat in Harry's face before Harry turned to walk up the stairs.
"Car. 11 o'clock," he said simply as he went back upstairs to his room munching on his toast.
As he entered his room, he saw a small scoop owl perched on the window sill carrying a letter addressed in sparkling green ink.
He took the letter and watched the owl fly away as he opened it, just catching the small badge that fell out of the envelope.
"Congratulations Mr. Potter!
You have been chosen as a 5th year Gryffindor prefect. Along with Hermione Granger I hope you bring honour to the house as well as the quality leadership shown by Gryffindors in the past. Find enclosed your prefects badge which you shown wear on the Hogwarts Express.
Congratulations once again,
Professor McGonagall"
Harry picked up the badge between two of his fingers and toyed with it.
"Wow," he though, "I'm a prefect. Going to have to behave this year. Nah." He put the badge back in the envelope and spent the rest of the day doing his homework and packing his trunk for the move to the Weaslys.
**********
At 5 minutes to 11 the next day Harry stepped out onto the footpath outside his house. He pulled his trunk after him and Hedwigs empty cage. Hedwig had gone to Sirius to tell him about Harry becoming a prefect.
At precisly 11 o'clock a large red sedan popped onto the footpath in front of Harry.
"Harry! How are you?" Hermione and Ron rushed of the car and Hermione wrapped Harry in a warm hug. Together the three of them, chattering excitedly, lugged Harry's trunk to the boot of the car, which had been magically enlarged by Mr. Weasly, and put Harry's trunk next to Hermiones.
As Harry slid into the back seat between Ron and Hermione, he noticed for the first time that Fred and Geogre were in the front seat and driving.
"Hullo Harry," Fred or Geogre said turing around, "care for a mint?"
"No Harry," Ron whispered, "They're loser mints."
"Good one Ron," Fred said, "Harry this is Weasly Wizard Weezes newest creation. The loser mint. Anyone who happens to consume one of these delightful creations will have 'Loser' embossed on their teeth and large neon loser signs hanging around them for the next 24.4 hours. And the best bit. They can't see any of it. There should be some it our birthday present to you."
"Yeah, there probably are, havn't looked through yet," Harry confessed.
By the time they all arrived at The Burrow, Harry and the others were tired enough to stumble up to bed and sleep like rocks.
**********
"Wake up you slugs," Hermione whispered as she prodded Harry and Ron with her wand, "We're going to Diagon Alley."
"Hermione!" Harry said as he grabbed his glasses and covered himself up, "I'm nearlly naked, get out!"
"I wouldn't mind seeing you in just boxers more often Harry, your kinda cute," Hermione winked and left the room.
*********
Once in Diagon Alley, the trio quickly bought everything they would be needing for their 5th year and decieded to stop for icecream before heading home. They were walking up the coblestone street when they saw their least favourite person - Draco Mafloy heading towards them.
"Well, well, well if it isn't the Potty, the Weasal and the Mudblood," he sneered at them as they passed.
"Good to see you too," Hermione sniffed back at him.
"You know the Dark Lord has it all worked out for Mudbloods like yourself," Draco drawled, "Father said that Mudbloods will be the first to go and I put in a special request for yourself - don't you feel special?"
"Oh yes," Hermione replied, "Taa taa Draco dear."
"You'll be first Mudblood," Draco yelled over his shoulder as he stalked away.
"He. .Make.. Me .. So..MAD," Hermione screamed attracting quite a few glances towards herself. And with that she lead the way out of Diagon Alley.
***********
The rest of the holidays passed by far too quickly, ending with a fabulous feast prepared by Mrs. Weasly followed by a FireWorks display by Fred and Geogre.
Before anyone knew it, they were all standing at Kings Cross Station with their trunks and Mrs. Weasly fussing over them.
"Bye everyone," she said as she hugged them all, "Please at least try to stay out of trouble."
They all slipped through the wall onto Platform 9 and 3/4 and into an uproar. The Hogwarts Express was no where too been seen. Everyone was shouting in confusion. Where was the train? How were they getting to Hogwarts?
A sudden *pop* and the appearance of Albus Dumbledore cause the noise to diminish. Professor Dumbledore had never come to the station before, why was he here now?
"If I can have your attention for a moment, I will explain why the train is not here to meet you," Dumbledore said with a particually grave look on his face.
"Last night, a small army of Voldemorts Evil Creatures attacked the train, destroying it beyond repair."

~~~CliffHanger? No? Didn't think so. Pretty lame attemp at one anyway.
Well the next chapter has some surprises in store for us all. I have planned up to 10 chapters and I am nowhere near the end. Help!! :) The rating will have to go up to PG as we will be experiencing some violence and a few deaths if my plans stays as it is. It is quite amazing.
Thanks to all who reviewed Chapter 1. You guys are legends!!!! Remember to review again and when I get some more reviews I will post chapter 3!
Thanks all!
