Harry Potter and the Time the Dursleys Died.
Chapter 1
The letter
Harry Potter was at Ron Weasley's house when it he received the letter. It was two weeks after his birthday and Hermione, Ron and he were playing Exploding Snap, when suddenly, through the window soared a large owl. Its snowy feathers brushed against Harry's cheek as it settled on his shoulder.
"Hedwig, your back!" cried Harry, feeling a sharp nip on his ear. As Harry took a letter off her leg, Ron and Hermione lent forward to see what it said. Harry opened the parchment envelope, which had the Hogwarts seal on the back, and said, "That's strange. I've already got my letter from Hogwarts."
"What does it say?," asked Hermione interested.
"Wait a minute, I'm still opening it."
Harry unfolded the letter and read out loud,
Dear Mister Potter,
Unfortunately, a terrible accident has occurred at the Dursleys and you must come to Hogwarts as soon as possible. Please send me an owl saying you have received this and that you will meet me at The Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley tomorrow at 3 o'clock. I cannot tell you more at the moment,
Yours sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore
"Harry, what do you think has happened? I hope everything is all right at the Dursleys." said Hermione in a worried voice. "I mean, it would be awful if anything happened to them."
"Not really . . ." mumbled Harry under his breath. "Look, lets not worry about it now, OK. I mean, Dumbledore will tell us tomorrow. Ron, do you think your mum will let us go?"
"Yeah, sure, I mean, we still need to get our school stuff, don't we?"

That night, at dinner, Mrs Weasley was asking Hermione what she had been doing over the summer before she came to the Burrow.
"I went to wizard camp, it was great! There was this boy there . . ."
At this Harry and Ron pricked up their ears. Hermione wasn't the sort of person who really went out with boys. (A/N: I decided she went off Viktor Krum over the holidays, so if you don't like that, tough.)
"What was his name, what was his name?" said Ron, exceedingly interested.
"His name," said Hermione in a voice that showed she was not pleased with the interruption, "is Darcy Lafomo."
"What kind of a name is that?" asked Harry, with a snort.
"He's very nice, and he's coming to Hogwarts this year." Hermione said with a hint of triumph in her voice.
"Why, who's leaving?" asked Ron, helping himself to cold turkey and potatoes.
"Draco Malfoy, according to Padma Patil. She was at camp too," replied Hermione calmly.
This was unexpected. Ron dropped his fork with a clatter, and Harry's jaw hit the floor.
"Apparently, his mother left Lucius so he sent Draco to Durmstrang, but I'm not so sure. Parvati said that Lucius had met Karkaroff and was going to arrange something but I'm really not positive. Could be either of the stories for all I know," added Hermione piling green salad onto her plate.
Ron was muttering something under his breath, which sounded a bit like, "He's actually gone . . ." when Harry said,
"Soooo . . . what's this Darcy like?"
"You'll find out on the 1st of September, won't you," said Hermione, which made Harry want to throttle her.
Hey guys, first chapter done, hope you like it. Please R+R, and no FLAMES, please.^_^(I'm counting on you.)
