This is my first attempt at a Harry Potter fanfic… so enjoy!
Chapter One
"WORMTAIL!!!"
An evil voice thundered through the house.
"Y-yes
master?" The clueless servant to the first voice answered, stuttering as usual.
"Wormtail,
we have to FIND Harry Potter! He has
gotten away way too many times; Four times he has gotten away from me! This just cannot be permitted! I can't wait for the time that he is at
Hogwarts, for there Dumbledore protects him!
Wormtail, faithful servant, where is Harry now?"
"I D-don't
know M-m-master"
"COME ON
WORMTAIL THINK!!! You should have heard something when you were that Weasley's
pet! Where is he now! TELL ME!!!"
"T-t-t-the
Dursley's I-I t-think my m-master"
"THE
DURSLEY'S!!! Well that is a start Wormtail.
Do tell me who are the Dursley's?"
"T-they are
his a-aunt and uncle a-a-and cousin I t-think, m-master," stuttering a little
less now that he thought that his master was beginning to calm down, or at
least focus his attention elsewhere.
"The famous
Harry Potter has an Aunt and Uncle protecting him has he? Tell me, how powerful are these relations?"
"M-master,
they are m-muggles"
"MUGGLES!
Even better, they must have been Lily's relatives! So famous Harry is being protected by Muggles," a chuckle escaped
the evil ones lips. "This shall be
easier than I thought!" Voldemort then sat, obviously in deep concentration,
trying to come up with a plan to rid the world of Harry Potter forever!
"M-master?" A very
timid Wormtail said.
"WORMTAIL!!!
CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I AM CONCETRATING!" Voldemort was furious at the
interruption to his careful planning.
"S-s-sorry
m-master, but I-I th-thought that y-you might w-w-want t-t-t-t-to know t-that
n-no-nobody knows w-where these D-D-D-Dursley's l-live."
"WHAT? Nobody knows where they live huh? Well we are going to have to do something
about that, o yes we will. I remember a
certain time where the Weasley's came through the chimney to their house. Aw yes, my spy in the ministry is doing an
awfully good job to come up with that information. We will just have to connect it to the Floo powder system again…"
"Y-yes
Master," Wormail said and proceeded to shrink into a dark corner of the house,
trying not to distract his master again.

Meanwhile…
"HARRY!!
Can't you do anything right? You are
supposed to be sweeping the entire floor!!! Not just that one square foot!" As
usual, Vernon was finding something to complain about that he could also take
out on Harry.
Harry
Potter was a 15-year-old wizard who, about 14 years ago, was the only person to
survive Voldemort and the Avada Kedavra curse.
In fact, it was Harry that caused Voldemort's downfall. 14 years ago, Voldemort had found out where
Harry and his parents lived through their secret keeper who was supposed to be
guarding the place from Voldemort.
Instead this secret keeper was on Voldemort's side and took this
information to his master in attempt to get his praise and honor for such a
good tidbit! Instead this Death Eater
helped to cause the downfall of Lord Voldemort. After storming into the Potter house, Voldemort killed Harry's
father. Then he proceeded to kill
Harry, but Harry's mom was in the way.
All he wanted to do was kill Harry and his father, James; Lily Potter
wasn't even on that list, until she attempted to protect Harry from Voldemort,
forcing him to also kill her. Because
Lily had died to protect Harry, her love acted like a shield for Harry. When Voldemort attempted to kill him, the
curse rebounded and instead struck Voldemort, not killing him because he had
taken measures for immortality, but stripping him of his body so that he was no
longer quite human. Because of this
spell that Lily had put on Harry, Voldemort couldn't touch Harry without
experiencing extreme pain. Now,
Voldemort can because, to get his body back, Voldemort had used Harry's blood,
and so the spell was extended to Voldemort and he was allowed to touch him now.
Now Harry
lived with the Dursley's, his Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, and Cousin
Dudley. Petunia and Vernon enjoyed
bossing him around while Dudley's favorite pastime was either taunting Harry or
beating him up. Then Harry discovered
that he was a wizard when he was invited to attend Hogwarts, a wizarding
school. Then his life changed, at least
during the school year, during the summer, he was back at the Dursley's, forced
to do chores and practice his dodging techniques.
"HARRY!!
Since you are taking so long on sweeping that floor, you will do the rest of
the wooden floors in the house, and then scrub them on your hands and knees!"
Harry imagined his uncle going purple in the face from rage, as he usually did
when having anything to do with him.
Why do I
even do this anyway? Harry thought, I do wish that that underage wizard
rule didn't exist so that I could do magic in the summer as my defense against
people such as the Dursley's. I
wouldn't even use my magic on anyone other than the Dursley's during the
summer! I can't wait for this summer to
end!
