Part 1
Albus Dumbeldore Stood at the base of the Sydney Opera House in Sydney Australia, reflecting on what had happened, then he thought No I need something to eat first so he strode over to the ice-cream stall at the door to the Opera House and asked the attendant for a triple fudge whirl.
The attendant(who was small, red eyed and had a massive groove in his face) disappeared under the counter of the stall and then a moment later reappeared with a large marble colored ice-cream. He thanked the attendant and the attendant replied in a Australian accent:
"No worries mate, 'ey are you hot in that, you should take it off" the attendant looked at his long pointed hat and a black robe with stars on. Dumbeldore replied:
"No, but thank you for your advice"
Dumbeldore was about to turn away when the attendant called
"Oi' one more thing. Why are you wearing that funny get up for?"
Albus thought fast,
"There is a fancy dress party on inside" at the words inside he motioned towards the Opera House.
The attendant nodded and Albus walked towards the rail that ran round the Opera House separating it from the water. And began to both eat the ice-cream and think of what had brought him here.
Last year the worst man alive, Tom Maralvo Riddle a.k.a. Lord Voldemorts had attempted to do what he tried to do 15 years ago: kill Harry Potter. He had tried other times but failed but last year he had come so close, with a agent in Hogwarts he made Harry touch a portkey and transport him and Hufflepuff student Cedric Diggory into a graveyard with Voldemort. Harry escaped but Cedric died. Harry was now in much to much danger.
He was too rebellious(like his father!) to be looked after 24 hours a day, so Dumbeldore was here to get what he needed to protect Harry and also he had to pick up an exchange student to bring back to Hogwarts. He was waiting for the man with both the protection and exchange student. But finding the protection was very hard and took a lot of thought before Dumbeldore got an idea.
The idea was good and at the moment Dumbeldore had no intention of thinking of such things. He looked out at the harbor absorbing the bright sun rays. Dumbeldore was about to get another ice-cream when he felt a tap on his shoulder and a hard but cheerful voice.
"Are you Albus Dumbeldore?"
Dumbeldore turned to see a man in his late 30's with black hair, dark green eyes and several large scars.
He was wearing light cream trousers and shirt with a green vest, over the shirt and on his head was a wide brimmed hat in the same green as the vest. And at his side was a teenage boy who had brown/black hair, hazelnut and green eyes and a very, long scar, which ran from above his eye to down in to his light blue tee-shirt which had the words"Welcome To Australia" in green and gold.
He was also wearing a pair of matching blue shorts. Dumbeldore addressed the man
"Yes I'm Albus Dumbeldore"
The man replied,
"I'm Michael Wills, this is my son James", He nodded towards the boy then he continued
"I'm here to give you the exchange student and the protection you asked for"
Dumbeldore replied,
"Are Mr Wills, the exchange student is?"
Dumbeldore's voice trailed off.
"My son" "Good very good" Dumbeldore continued
"And the protection?"
"Here"
Michael handed Dumbeldore a letter from inside his vest and handed it to Dumbeldore.
Dumbeldore looked at the letter.
Michael finished by saying,
"The rest is in the post, now I will leave my son in your protection, his belongings will be brought to you before the end of the day and I'm must be going"
Michael was about to walk away when Dumbeldore called,
"One moment, Mr Wills I need to ask you a question or two",
Michael hesitated and then nodded. Dumbeldore Began to ask questions,
"May I ask why you have so many scars"
"I'm an Auror, it is a dangerous job"
"And your son?"
"Someone did this to him as revenge, because I put his father in the slammer".
"And where shall I contact you for help or information?"
"My family and I are moving to England in a few months so you will be able to contact me there and if you need anything else contact the Clearwater Academy Of Magic, here is the address":
Michael gave Dumbeldore a small piece of paper
"Now Albus I must go so Good Bye and Goodbye Son"
My Wills walk away
His son called after him
"Bye Dad"
Now Dumbeldore had all his work done he could go relax
He spoke to James
"Now James were would you like to go to relax"
For a moment James thought then said
"The Beach, but you can't go there looking like this"
he motioned to his robes.
"You need some Australia cloths! Follow me"
Dumbeldore follow James into a shop
In a few minutes Dumbeldore comes out wearing and pair of blue shorts, a tee-shirt with fish on it, a pair of sun glass and a bottle of sunscreen. James walked off and called back
"Come on, you look great!"
For the first time in public Albus Dumbeldore blushed red! They walked away. The Attendant at the ice-cream stall watch them go and smiled. The Master would be happy with this (So he hoped). Then The attendant clicked his fingers and apparated!
Tom Maralvo Riddle stood in the Riddles family house knows as the Riddle house. A creepy dilapidated old house shrouded in mystery over the strange happenings over the last year. Voldemorts had used the house for the proses of regaining his body and planing to kill Harry Potter.
The house had once had his family until he literally scarred the life out of them, this made nobody come near the house because of the deaths and the fool muggles in the village below thought it was the old grounds keeper. The house was board up and no one visited except children who threw rocks . The grounds keeper who diligently looked after the house had spotted light which was Voldemorts and his not so faithfully servant: Wormtail. He had came up and Voldemorts had killed him.
When the villagers got wind of this, nobody at all came near the house. Because of this it was perfect for his plans of regaining his body. He had tried several times to get Harry Potter: the first in his first year:failed, and last year a break through: with a loyal Death Eater in Hogwarts he had transported Harry via Portkey to a Grave yard for a duel. Priori Incantatem occurred and once again Harry escaped. But Voldemorts had regained his body.
Now with power, even perhaps stronger than Dumbeldore's he would get Harry this year. But Dumbeldore was now looking for help against Voldemorts in Australia. An hot Aurour was going to help in some way that was all his informant had told him. Now the informant should me here any second. Voldemort moves towards a chair beside the fireplace.
He began to strum his claw like fingers idly. Then with a "whoosh" his informant apparated in front of him. He was short and fat with a large grove in his face. He looked up at Voldemort with red eyes and spoke in an Australia accent
"Greetings Lord I am hea............."
before he could finish Voldemorts claw of a foot, kicked the man to the ground, the man winched and looked up. Voldemort looked down in to his eyes his own blazing with fury.
"Never mind the greetings, what have you got?"
The man got up, he rubbed his stomach were Voldemorts had kick at it and began to related the events he had seen and hearer.
"My lord Dumbeldore was in Australia he talked to the Aurour who did this to me"
He pointed at the groove in his face
"He has organized some kind of protection for Harry Potter and he has an exchange student at Hogwarts"
At the word protection Voldemorts s eye widen and he asked
"What protection?"
The man only shook his head.
"I don't know sir, all I know is it in the post"
Voldemorts looked down at the man.
"Very well"
Voldemorts began to turn away. He heard a sigh of relief and then whirled round and he had his wand in his hand.
Before the man knew what had happened Voldemorts had cried
"Crucio"
The man crumpled to the ground and began to yell in pain. The man rolled and rolled on the old wooden floor boards until Voldemorts wave his wand. The man stopped rolling and yelling and straighten up.
Voldemorts gestured for the door
"Go"
But the man stood there and asked
"Lord Have you made a decision?"
Voldemorts thought back. Had Promised this fool that he could see Potter die.
"Yes you can. Now go"
The man began mumbling his thanks.
"Thank my lord, I'm so greatfu......."
Voldemorts yelled
"GET OUT!!"
With this the man Disapparated.
Voldemorts now looked at Wormtail who had been in the corner all the time.
Voldemorts now addressed Wormtail
"Wormtail, get the Dragon"
Wormtail scurried out and return with a small crated which began to shake and his.
Wormtail new what this was: a dragon a Chinese Fireball miniature.
Voldemorts picked up the crate, ripped of the lid and picked up the tiny creature in the crate. It was red spiky and very angry. Voldemorts began to his at the dragon in Parseltoue. Then it flew out a gap in the boards of the house.
Voldemorts motioned towards Wormtail. An began to talk.
"You know what I just did Wormtail?"
"No lord why"
"Before I kill Harry he needs to know that I'm after him. That dragon is going to destroy his house but not kill him."
Wormtail inside felt a sudden sense of sadness:I'm in debt. An now his master was going to hurt the one he was in debt to. Then Voldemorts continued
"It will be at his home in two days"
Harry Potter sat in his bed late a night, very late a night. 2 o'clock to be precise. He was still busy with his report on the history of the trolls for Professor Binns. The report was going well. He turned another page in the book he was reading to find out about trolls. He circled a section of interest and then started to write. He scrolled up and down the piece of parchment he was writing on.
An hour later Harry sat down the quill he was writing with and locked at the clock: 4 o'clock. He better stop or the Dursleys might hear him. Not that they cared as much as normal because of his god father: Sirius Black he was a convict murderer. In the third year he had learnt that Sirius was actually innocent. Framed by the traitor: Peter Petigrew. If it wasn't for him he would have parent and he would not be living with the Dursleys. He had on really talk to his parent once.
Last year he had been accidentally been put in the Triwirard Tournament by a Death Eater In disguise as a ex-Auror. When he had gotten the Triwirard cup at the end of the third task it turned out to be a portkey. He was transported to a grave yard where he found Lord Voldemort the murder of his parent he regained his body. They dueled but because of the core of the wands the wands caused Prori Incantem. And he saw his parents.
He had been badly hurt but he managed to escaped but Cedric didn't. A fellow competitor touched the cup as Harry did. That fellow: Cedric Diggory was killed by Voldemort later. Harry felt there sad and angry at himself because he had asked Cedric to grab the cup. Friend, Teachers all told him that it was not his fault but Harry felt like it was. Most night he was have nightmares. Cedric's spirit calling out "How could he do it?" and he would wake in a cold sweat and nearly in tears. Harry began to pack away his things. He stared at the caged Hedwig normally sat in. She was of delivering a letter to Sirius. He slipped the quill, parchment, report and book into a hole the lose floor board under his bed.
Just as he did this there was a knock at the window. He turned to see several owl waiting for the window to be opened. Harry hurried across and un latch the window. The owls came in. Three in all each carrying a gift and a letter. One of the owl Harry identify to be Hedwig. She carried a parcel and a letter from Sirius Black. He opened the letter to find a piece of crumpled and dirty paper it read
Dear Harry
Happy Birthday!!! I hope you like the gift. After last year I thought that you might like a way to talk and see each others face so I stole/bought this : A Maze Viewer. It creates an image of a person you want to talk to and if they have one you can have a conversation with them. I bought this so that you could talk to me more often because of last year. Well I have to get moving I'm camped some where in the countryside and I need to go see Lupin
Your God Father Sirius Black
He opened up the gift to find a hexagon shape piece of blue crystal. It glow with some warmth. Harry laid it on his bed on looked out the window and said to himself "Thanks Sirius" Then he turned to the to a tiny owl which he recognizes as Ron's owl Pigwidgeon but it had something different about it Harry couldn't place, it carries a book shaped object with a letter. He opened it to find Ron's messy handwriting
Dear Harry
How are you? Feeling better from last year? Well I brought you something that might help keep you safe and get back at Malfoy for annoying you. It is "The Complete Set Of Dark Defense Spells And Revenge curses" I got it when Mum wasn't looking(She wanted to get you some lucky charm things). Have you noticed anything different about Pig? When we when in to Diagon Alley to get you a present I bought some Owl Enhancer for Pig. Write back if you can.
Your Friend
Ron
P.S Mum being thinking about letting you come over for the rest of the holidays but she says Dumbeldore doesn't want you to over. I'll send a owl if he lets you.
Harry thought about why Dumbeldore wasn't letting him go over to Rons. Perhaps Voldemort?
Well don't worry about that now. He unwrapped his book and looked at the book bound in blue leather with a star on it. Then turn to the owl that must be from Hermione. He took the letter from its leg. He opened the letter and began to read Hermione neat writing
Dear Harry
Happy Birthday! I hope you are well. I am well but still a bit shaken from last year. I hope your not. I brought you this gift so you could cheer up a bit. Its a happiness charm. If you touch it it will try to make you happy. I hope the dursleys are not giving you to much trouble. Oh I just remembered to tell you about what's been in the Daily Prophet. Rita (Thank goodness) has gone and there been lots of rumors about Voldemort. Fudge is telling the press that know thing is wrong and the rumors are made by trouble makers, but everyone see through it. Well I best go its late.
Your Loving Friend
Hermione
Harry smiled and thought I got some many loyal friends. He picked up the package and unwrapped it to find a a necklace with a white piece of crystal on it. He also found a note with the necklace. It read
P.S To use as a constant charm just wear it as a necklace and when you fell down it will cheer you up!!
Hermione
Harry picked up the necklace and put it on his neck. He didn't fell anything so he thought he mustn't be down. He heard a flutter and found that the owls had gone. He closed the window and pushed his gifts into the crack in the flour board. He felt the food he had stored there as he pushed the gifts in, all except the necklace which he kept on.
He looked at the clock. It was nearly time to get up. He got dressed and went down. As he went down he was welcomed as he always was:he was ignored and snarled at. He sat down and Aunt Petunia came and deposited a small piece of orange in front of him. Dudley(who was siting next him) had been on the diet for nearly a year and had lost 10 pounds.
But Petunia want more of so the diet when on and Harry's constant lack of food continued but lucky he had received more food from Ron and Hermione. Dudley(Who's birthday had just been) was holding his favorite present:A gun. It was loaded but couldn't be fired. Vernon had bought it from a junk shop . Vernon had said that it was a shotgun with a high caliber but the trigger was jammed. Harry thought that if the trigger wasn't jammed Dudly would fire it ! He soon had finish his breakfast and with out a word left the table.
He went up to his room and reached under the bed and felt until he found the lose floor board and was reaching in for a piece of cake. When he heard Dudley banging about in the front room. when heard something click and the a mighty Bang came out and then a splintering sound. He looked behind to see a gaping hole in the floor boards behind him. Harry forgot the cake and raced out from under his bed.
Then he heard Petunia shriek and Vernon swear. Then they both came thundering up the stairs to Harry's room. He was siting and the floor looking at the hole. He could see the gun on the ground, smoke coming from its barrel. Vernon cried "Look at the mess! We will have to get the builders in to fix this!" Petunia looked frightened "How much will this cost?" Vernon (Who was looking at the hole) looked up "I don't know? But we can't have this happening again. I'm going to get that thing out of the house instantly!! And as for you" He pointed at Harry "You move your freak thing out into the garden,you cant be hear when the builders come!
Later that day Harry sat on the cool grass in the garden. He had moved all his things and they were siting on the grass behind him covered with, even Hedwig's cage was there she was sleeping quietly beside him . He looked up at the mid afternoon sky. Soon he would me moving back in, the builders had been called and they were nearly finished. At the moment he could hear Vernon shouting at the builders.
Then the door shut and he came marching out!! He looked at him "You start moving your things it to the house n............" as he said this he heard this Petunia and Dudley scream! Vernon raced into the house to the front room were they stood. They were looking at the window. Harry was close behind Vernon as he raced into the room and looked out the window he saw something that turn his blood cold! A dragon!!!!!!!! But not a dragon he had seen before. Vernon turned to look at him and in a voice that sounded like anger it self "Potter!?!!"
Then petunia screamed again . they turned to see the dragon advancing on the house and the suddenly a barrier of light appeared and flashed and Harry thought Of course Dumbeldore's enchantments!! but the dragon continued to advance. Then Petunia scream and a roar could be heard above hear scream. They saw a fireball racing toward the window!!!! Both Harry and Vernon dived out of the room.
That was the last scream that Harry ever from Petunia and Dudley and the last look of the them alive. as Harry and Vernon ran from the room it was engulfed in fire. Vernon stared in horror at the room "I kill you now Potter!!" he cried as Harry raced away from him. He had no idea wear to run so he for the staircase he was just on the firsts step when another fireball tore up the house. And behind him Vernon screamed.
He was gone to now Harry thought as he raced into his empty room. Then he remembered My things are outside!! but before he could think of anything else the roof began to fall in and wood and mortar rained down Harry tried to run but something hit his legs that sent him into the floor. The last thing heard from that room was the roar of the dragon!
Albus Dumbeldore sat on the hot sand at a beach in Sydney looking out as James walked back up from the beach wear he had been fishing he had under one arm a rod ,the other a bucket. Dumbeldore suddenly felt cold all inside. What could this be he thought? then he remember having this felling before in mid air on trip to the Ministry He called out to James "James get your things, wear going home!"
