Swish and Spit
Hermione,
How has your summer been? I hope that you have taken the chance to go outside. The weather has been nice, and you can always take a book outside with you. I haven't heard from Ron yet this summer, but I have seen Sirius. He's doing well. I'm sure by now that, as an avid reader, you've been able to get your hands on a copy of the Daily Prophet.
Two days ago, Cornelius Fudge announced that Peter Pettigrew was wanted for the murder of twelve Muggles as well as conspiracy to murder James Potter and Narcissa Malfoy. He also has apologized for the way Sirius was treated, both in Askaban and without. So that's part of the big news. Sirius is a free man. Finally and once and for all.
I know it may seem confusing. Hell, I don't even think I understand it all. But it looks like Lucius Malfoy, Death Eater extraordinaire, wasn't what we thought he was. It turns out that he wanted to defeat Voldemort just as much as my dad did. And for the same reasons, too. To protect his son.
I'm not sure that Fudge told the press who testified for Sirius. But he must have. He couldn't have kept something like this a secret. Hermione, my Mum is alive. She was taken away from Godric's Hollow that night by Lucius Malfoy. He had found out about a project that my Mum was working on.
If I know you, and I'm sure I do, you're wondering then why Lily Potter's body was found at Godric's Hollow the next morning. Lucius used Polyjuice to make someone appear to be my Mum. My Dad and I never knew the difference. It may seem cruel, but I think that Lucius did what he had to. The project my Mum was working on was very important.
But who really died with my Dad that night? Peter Pettigrew may have betrayed my Dad, but he also betrayed Narcissa Malfoy. Draco's mum was the woman who was pretending to be my Mum.
That's not everything. I don't have to live with the Dursleys anymore. I can be with my Mum. But I have to live with my cousin. You see, my Mum and Draco's mum were sisters. Draco's my cousin. He rescued me from the Dursleys and brought me to Hogwarts to see my Mum.
I need your help though. For the longest time, I tried to think of a way to tell you all of this. But I couldn't figure it out. Not until Draco pointed out that telling you would be like Charms class compared to telling Ron. He's going to be angry with me… with Draco. How should I tell him, Mione?
Harry
