HARRY POTTER AND THE POWER OF FRIENDS
Chapter One
It was a quiet night on Privet Drive. From the outside it looked like everybody was asleep, but in the smallest bedroom a young boy just about to celebrate his 15th birthday was still awake.
His name was Harry Potter and despite the normal look of Privet Drive, he was not normal. Harry Potter was a wizard.
He was currently on summer vacation from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Unlike other boys his age he did not really enjoy his vacation very much. This was partly due to the fact that he lived with his Aunt Petunia, his Uncle Vernon and his overweight cousin Dudley, who all despised the fact that he was a wizard.
The other reason that Harry was not enjoying his holidays was because of the nightmares that he was getting each night. In fact he had been having them ever since he arrived back at Privet Drive from Hogwarts last term. The nightmares usually seemed to follow the same story however. They all seemed to involve either Cedric telling him that it was all his fault, or just simple replays of the events of his last term at Hogwarts.
However a few of these dreams were what Harry had started to call 'Scar-burners;' that is dreams that involved his arch-nemesis (and the worst dark wizard this century) Voldemort. These usually were more like apparitions than dreams though and Harry had learned a great deal of Voldemort's plans from these dreams. He had already informed his headmaster Professor Dumbledore and his godfather Sirius about these plans and he hoped that they had taken appropriate measures. (He was never told about what these measure where because the adults didn't want to worry him.)
All of a sudden there was a load thud on his window and he turned around to see his friend Ron's owl, Pigwidgeon reeling after colliding with his closed window, he muttered 'Stupid git' as he went over to let the hyperactive owl in and grabbed the letter hanging off Pigs leg and read
Happy Birthday Harry,
How's it going at the muggles (or shouldn't I ask?)? It's going pretty well here at the Burrow. Dad's working pretty much non-stop at the ministry though to try and gain support among the ministry workers now that You-Know-Who's back. Fudge is still trying to deny it, although Dumbledore's announcement at the end of last year is making it a bit hard for him to do so. Mum keeps owling Dumbledore to ask if it's okay for you to come over this holiday. He keeps saying no, but Hermione I have come up with a present (to take some of your loneliness,) but I'll let you read about it when you get her present. Oh, and another thing, Ginny keeps having these terrible nightmares and my mum was wondering if you could maybe send her a letter since you are no stranger to nightmares (sorry but I let slip that you get them, although you're lucky my mum respects Dumbledore because after I told her she wanted to drag you a way from the muggles so she could look after you.) Anyway if you could write her, it would be appreciated around here
Thanks
Ron
P.S. Before I forget it seems that Fred and George must've gotten Bagman to pay up because they seem to have gotten a lot of Galleons from somewhere. They still want to do the joke shop and I think my Mums relenting a little.
Harry laughed a little at this because he was the one that had given the twins the money for the joke shop. "He then he was starting to wonder what Hermione's present was going to be as he opened Ron's which turned out to be a big book on curses and counter curses for him to study before next term." He re-read the letter; and smiled at the thought of Mrs. Weasley wanting to mother him, since he had never really had anyone but her to do that, and then frowned at the part about Ginny having nightmares. He realized that she must've been having nightmares about her first year (Harry's second) when Voldemort's sixteen-year-old self had possessed her thru a diary she had been given. Now with Voldemort back up to full power it must be really frightening for her. So he decided that he would actually write her a letter to see if it would make a difference. O that thought he decided that he would go to bed.
Harry awoke the next morning to the voice of his Uncle bellowing ' GET UP YOU UN-GRATEFUL BOY IF YOU WANT ANY BREAKFAST' he groaned and got up, put on his clothes and went groggily down the stairs into the kitchen where his Uncle, Aunt, and Cousin were already seated.
