The trio wiped the last of their tears and trudged upstairs to bed to
sleep. Well...every one except Harry. Outside were 5 owls waiting for him
along with some strange green bird. Harry opened the window and let them
in. Pig, Ron's owl, started zooming around and hooting loudly. He caught
pig and untied his letter and parcel. Pig than flew to Hedwig's cage for a
drink of water. He untied the other letters and parcels from their legs.
Harry gave them an owl treat and a drink of water. They all left except the
bird and Pig who fortunately was sleeping. The bird picked up it's letter
and glided at Harry. It was a forest green color with grass green eyes and
talons. It dropped the letter into Harry's hand. It read:
Dear Harry,
Hello. I can't tell you who I am because this letter might be intercepted. The bird (who was probably on your shoulder) is actually a Phoenix (Harry raised his eyebrows at the bird and turned back to the letter). He's different than the others because he helps you control your element when you're angry or upset. He will protect you from most danger. In this case, your element is nature. There are 10 other elements and one can control and help you if you grow to week from the training you will go through. Unfortunately we don't know whom. Anyways, here are the people you'll be training with: Life-Neville Longbottom
Sky-Jane McAndrew
Air-Sami Zedelonas
Light-Dudley Dursly
Dark-Brooke Elton
Stars-Skyleia/Sky for short
Ground-Hermione Granger
Ice- Sheba Artic
Fire-Ron Weasly Water-Alyssa C
You may owl these people if you wish. You may be with them for a very long time. Anyways you guys and a handful of wizards are in a secret organization not known by the MOM. I am afraid but I can't tell as mentioned before but you'll meet most of them on your first meeting, which is still TBA! BE CAREFUL!!! Harry re-read the letter over and over again making sure they didn't get the wrong or Harry. Writing appeared at the bottom of the letter. It read:
I know this is the right Harry...what other Harry Potters live out there that I should know about?
'Great' Harry thought 'Another talking item...I wonder if this holds someone's memory' Once again the parchment wrote back
Why not? Do you want it to
'no' Harry thought quickly
anyways...I forgot to tell you...you could name the Phoenix anything you want.
"Cool!" said Harry. He looked at his Phoenix. "What should I name you?" The Phoenix tilted its head innocently. It had a look in its eyes that stated she watched thousands of wizards and witches before him struggling to think of a good name, "Hmmm. You look like a...Damiya, the Greek goddess of forces of nature. God, if I have to hear Dudley rehearse all the Greek gods oh so help me." Harry said rolling his, "Do you like it?" Harry asked the Phoenix. The Phoenix nodded her head. A small, fuzzy thing hit his head. He looked around and so pig. A bit dazed from his collision, other than that...A-okay. Pig got up and hooted. He then quickly flew out of the window the minute the door opened. In stepped Dudley. He had a bright yellow phoenix perched on his shoulder. It had yellow-orange eyes and black talons. In his hand was a Hogwarts letter and some type of necklace clutched in his hand.
"Hey Harry guess what! I'm a wizard just like you! "Dudley said looking excited. He then asked, "whose Gryffindor, Prof. McGonnagal, and Albus Dumbledore?
Harry let out a long sigh, "Gryffindor is one of the 4 houses of Hogwarts, and Prof. McGonnagal is my Transfiguration teacher and Head of my house. Albus Dumbledore is the Headmaster of Hogwarts."
"Oh. Okay." Dudley opened his mouth to ask another question. Harry stopped him.
"Please not right now Dudley...I would like to open my presents now...I promise I'll answer all your questions when Uncle Vernon leaves."
"Okay. Can I stay in here? I want to know what type of gifts wizards get."
Harry shook his head can't he think of anything else but presents Harry thought as looked for Ron's to open first. Harry found Ron's and sat down on his cluttered desk. Ron's letter read: Hiya Harry,
How are you? I'm fine. Can you believe it! I've got an element. I tried to see if I can set Fred's and Georges door on fire. Mum unfortunately caught me. I got yelled at for trying to use the powers on them. So she made me de- gnome the garden. I accidentally sent half the garden on fire. Which got me into more trouble. She had to call Prof. Dumbledore if I good to Hogwarts early. He actually agreed because the meeting is 3 days before term starts.
Guess what! Sirius is getting a trial August 3rd! You, me, the rest of my family, Dumbledore, Snape (yeah I know big surprise...seriously), and Lupin! I can't wait to see Remus again! I hope he comes back to teach. Any way I am coming to pick you up July 31st around three. The judge wants to interview us and give us time to get together and organize stuff. I don't know why though. We'll be able to visit Sirius.
Cya
Ron Weasly Harry re-read the letter. 'Sirius is going to have a trial. That's that best b-day present ever' Harry thought. 'If all goes well Sirius will be set free!'
Harry moved on to his next his present. He opened it up. Inside were some of Mrs. Weasley's homemade cookies and pies. Harry took them and hid them from Dudley who luckily was looking at the different shaped presents. He then pulled out a bunch of candy bags. At the bottom was another box There was a note It read:
Hallo Harry ol' chap
Hope the muggles been treating you well! If they hadn't here's a box of goodies to give them.
Mischief Makers
Gred and Forge
P.S. Thanks for the money!
P.S.S.Here's what the goodies are: There are 2 of our best sellers...
Canary Creampuffs-turns you into a canary when you it eat momentarily.
Ton-Tongue Toffee-makes your tongue longer
Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean Sticks-Each stick has 3 different flavors. Depending on what you get and how many seconds you tasted it, that's what you'll turn into. Lick all of them at once and you'll turn into something odd.
Metamorphous Animal Crackers- Look completely harmless, No. Guess again, whatever animal cracker you eat, you'll turn into that animal for a minute.
Ludicrous Pixie Sticks-Made from the muggle candy Pixie Sticks, we put a charm on them that make you Hyper for about an hour (give or take a few min.).
If you eat the thing at once...You'll not be able to calm down for 2 hours. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
ABC Soda-Looks like a muggle coke (for certain reasons*cough cough 'Dudley' cough cough*) when you take a long gulp, and open your mouth wide, anything you say will be in BURP Language.
Have Fun!
