Hey everybody who reviewed, thanks.

I promise it will get more exciting soon…

Harry trudged home, thinking of a name for the puppy. How would he be able to hide it from Aunt Petunia? She hated all animals, especially dogs, but he couldn't just kick it out. It was too cute.

Maybe Cristal could help, he thought as he approached four privet drive with the nameless puppy. It could cheer her up. He hid it under his T- shirt, that was baggy enough to hide an elephant and opened the front door. He ran upstairs to the guest room that was turned into Cristal's room. He opened the door to see Cristal lying on the bed, pounding on her pillow. He left.

He walked into his room where another owl from Hogwart's was waiting. He dropped the puppy on his bed. What should he name it? (A/N, In the review, you can choose a name, and then I'll pick the best one for the dog. Entries are due 4.19.02) He went over to the owl and untied the note. It read:

Dear Mr. Potter,

Just a reminder that no magic shall be used until term starts, September 1st. Thank you once again,

Sincerely,

Amanda Dumbledore

Headmistress

Harry closed the letter and threw it in the trash can. (A/N for you angel- eyes) The puppy was sleeping on the bed. It was so cute. He got up and got hid new quill so he could write a letter to Ron and Hermione about seeing them in Diagon Alley. He tied a note to Hedwig to Hermione. He went into Cristal's room and asked her to borrow her owl to send the letter to Ron. She nodded through her tears. He gave her back her wand and apologized.

"Aaaaaah!" a loud shriek echoed through the hallway. "What is this mongrel doing here?" He heard Aunt Petunia scream. Harry raced to his room to find his Aunt in a corner of the room, petrified. The dog growled at her and then noticed Harry. It rushed over to great Harry, wagging its tail. He picked the puppy up as Aunt Petunia slowly left.

"That dog is posessed!" she screamed. Uncle Vernon appeared.

"What is that thing doing in my house?" He growled. "Get it out! Now!" The dog jumped out of Harry's arms and lifted its leg onto Uncle Vernon. Yellow liquid was sprayed at him.

"That dog is evil, get him out of my house and clean that mess up! Come with me!" He grabbed Harry by the ear and dragged him to the cupboard. He flung open the door, Mildred and Dudley were back there, kissing. He kicked them out and locked Harry in.

Harry didn't mind, really, until he realized that he wouldn't be able to meet Hermione and Ron at Diagon Alley. After two days he had been locked in there, let out only twice a day to go to the bathroom. He thought about names for the puppy while he was there and pondered why Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia would call his puppy posessed.

Hope you liked it.
