Chapter One: Bad news
The day had come when all of the students went to the library and did some last minute studying. By the restricted section in the library sat Harry and his best friend Ron. They were trying to study for Potions but their minds were on other things.
"So Ron, when do you want me to come over to the Burrow?" asked Harry.
"What ever floats your boat," said Ron "But remember that were going to stay at Hermione's house for a while."
They kept on talking about their soon t be summer, while a bushy haired girl came rushing in.
"Hey Herm, over here," said Ron.
She came over but she was all out of breath.
"H-Harry, Professor McGonagall wants you in her office A.S.A.P," she said.
Harry gathered his books together and headed off.
When he reached Professor McGonagall's office he saw that Professor Dumbledor would be accompanying them.
"This can't be good," said Harry to himself.
"Mr. Potter, please sit down," said Professor McGonagall.
"What's wrong Professor?" asked Harry.
"It's about the Dursley's," said Professor Dumbledor. "Well- how can I say this, they're dead."
"Dead?"
"Yes. We just got word that Privet Drive is now in ruble and there were no survivors," said Professor Dumbledor.
"W-what! How?" asked Harry.
"A source told us that the Dark Lord found out where you lived, he broke down the protection spells and tortured/killed you Secret Keeper," said Professor McGonagall.
"I can't believe it," said Harry.
"I am really sorry Harry but on the terms to where you live we have found you a place to stay," said Professor Dumbledor.
"Is it with he Weasleys?" asked Harry.
"No, it is not," said Professor Dumbledor. "I believe that a spy has a close relationship with them. We would be risking your life."
"So it must be with Sirius then," said Harry.
"No, he will be helping me with the war," replied Dumbledor.
"Then with who?" asked Harry.
"We had tracked down a second cousin from your mother's side. That is whom you'll be staying with," answered Professor McGonagall.
"How come I've never heard of this cousin," wondered Harry.
"Because we never knew that you have family in America," said Professor McGonagall.
"What America!? You can't do this to me. Next year will be my last year here and also I'm going to be Head Boy, like my father," cried Harry.
"I know but it's the only way. Voldemort would never think that you would be in another country or better yet in America and plus he wouldn't risk to travel across seas," said Professor Dumbledor.
Harry had nothing more to say so he left. He went back to the library to tell Ron and Hermione the bad news.
"I'm so sorry," said Hermioine.
"Me to man. I knew that they were mean and all but they didn't deserve to die," said Ron.
"Wait there's more. I have to live with my cousin and they live in America," said Harry.
"America!" Ron and Hermione both yelled.
"How terrible. You know that one week there you will gain 20 pounds with all of the fast food places. Its amazing that their life span isn't 40," said Hemione.
"What ever you do don't turn it to a Yankee or start talking like them. Better yet don't go there, stay with me," said Ron.
I can't. Dumbledor told me no," said Harry. "Oh great, my best friend will be come an cowboy," said Ron.

The days of Hogwarts soon ended and the students were ready for their holiday. On the day of their departure Harry waited with Ron and Hermione for the carriages to arrive. When they came Ron and Hermione gave Harry one last huge. He waved good bye and stood there until the carriages were no longer in sight. He went back in to Hogwarts and he went up to the Gryffindor Tower. When he climbed through the portrait hole he saw all of the professors standing before him. (Yes Snape was even there) Harry grabbed his belongings and headed for the fireplace. One by one the professors said their fair wells. When Harry saw Snape he was over come with emotions that he gave him a big hug. Professor Dumbledor approached him and gave him a bag of floo powder.
"I wish you well and good luck in America," said Professor Dumbledor.
He lit the fire and Harry left. Harry came to a stop when he fell face first on the carpet floor. He quickly stood up and began to brush off the soot.
"Mummy he's here. Quick Mummy, he's here."
Harry looked up and saw a little girl. A second later a lady came in. She was in her mid 30's, she had extremely long ginger hair and had the most amazing green eyes.
"Mum?" said Harry. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
So how was it? Please review I need to now what you think and it really makes me want to write more
