The Red Envelope
A red envolope lay on Harrys stomach when he opened his eyes. He peered
at it curiously as the golden lettering shimered in the early morning sunlight.
Harry reached down for the envelope when his cousin Dudly, who was approaching
the weight of a large polar bear, barged through the door. "what have you got?"
Dudly demanded.
"Nothing" spat Harry.
"Mum" Dudly wailed. "Mum Harry has something." Harry thought of how he would
get ot of this one, " look Dudly, behind you it's a goblin" Harry gasped. Dudly
screamed and turned around. Harry quickly stuffed his envelope under the loose floor
board, it was going to have to wait until later. Just then Aunt Petunia came rushing
up the stairs " what is the matter my Duddy Poos" she cooed. Dudly turned to glare at
Harry, " Harry has something and he wont show it to me." He then continued to complain
about the trick Harry had pulled. Aunt Petunia turned to Harry her beady eyes glimered
wickedly. "Get up you lazy boy" she snapped, "and show me what you have."
"I don't have anything,"Harry defended himself, "see?" Harry opened his hands. Aunt
Petunia reached out and slapped Harry across the face. "Dont be Cheeky," she shouted.
Harry glared at her as she stormed out of the room.
After breakfast, Harry was told to: wash the dishes, vacume the house, clean the windows,
polish the brassware, and then scrub the bathrooms with a tooth brush!
It was gone 7:00pm by the time Harry stumbled into his bedroom, hands aching and eyes blurring
because of tiredness. He wasnt expecting anything to eat, because of Dudlys diet which
consisted of one meal a day, and Harry had already eaten his.
Harry was about to curl up and fall asleep, when he remembered about the envelope stored safely
under the floor board. He clambered down from his bed and knelt on the floor. He lifted the floor
board and clasped the letter.
He tore open the envelope, and a piece of parchment fell out. It read TAP WITH WAND 5 TIMES TO READ
THE LETTER. Harry walked over to his chest and pulled out his wand, following the insructions he was
finally able to read the letter which said:
Harry Potter
You have been asked to participate in the banquet held at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry on the 27th of July. The banquet is being held for those in Griffyndoor house as a celebration
of your winning the twizard tounament.
Harry still remembered painfully the night Cedric Diggory had died, he hardly wanted to celebrate it.
Although on the other hand it was an excuse to leave Privot Drive in 3 days. Harry then continued to
read the letter.
Please send a reply to hogwarts letting us know your decision. Arrangements will be made later for your
transportation if that is your desire.
yours sincerly
Albus Dumbledore
Harry hurried over to Hedwigs cage, quickly scribbled his reply on a piece of parchment and attached it
to Hedwigs leg. He then proceeded to open the window to let her out. Just as he had done this another
owl flew in. Harry looked up at the thing fluttering round his head, it was Pig! After several attempts
to catch Pig he finally tore the message of his leg.
Harry
did you get your letter? are you going
i am coz mum says i have to.
hope your well
from
Ron
Harry wrote yet another reply and after becoming very frustrated, managed to tie the letter to pig.
He stood at the window and watch the tiny bird fly away, into the moonlight.
