Chapter five
Prefection

Harry and Sirus had left for home. Before leaving Harry opened his packages and read his birthday cards. Ron's present was a few chocolate frogs, and a note. "Harry sorry we didn't get you anything much but we where a little tight on money. Mom said that if you want to go shopping together that we will be there on Wednesday. Hope to see you there. Ron" Harry was about to fold up the letter until he saw on the back a PS saying if he had heard yet about Hermione. Harry then opened Hermione's present and note. The note read "Harry Guess what. I was made a Prefect. Can you believe it? A prefect. I guess working as hard as I have had finally paid off. Oh and also cant forget this. Happy Birthday. I hope we can get together on Wednesday. Ron owled me saying that he will be at Diagon Alley on Wednesday. See you then. Hermione." Hermione gave Harry a book on animagus. Harry sat there thinking, what he would ever need the book. He then opened up Hagrid's package which were a few rock cakes like always and some pumpkin juices. Harry then opened up his Hogwarts letter to read what items he would need. This year's letters just happened to be a little larger. He flipped through the normal four pages of his item list. On the list yet again was dress robes and "The New Gryffindor Quidditch Team robes." On the last page when Harry read it he was literally jumping of his seat. "Oh My God... Sirus get this. I have been made a Prefect along with Hermione. I am to see Professor Albus after we get home. He wrote here that he will be expecting me to owl him a reply saying when we will be home. And that I must be alone."

"Harry that's great news. I'm glad for you." Mrs. Figg and Sirus said together.

Harry immediately owled Ron, Hermione, and Professor Dumbledore right away. Harry wrote to Ron first. "Hey Ron. Guess what. I just read my Hogwarts letters and too have been made a Prefect. I can not believe it. I will be stopping at Diagon Alley through Floo Powder hopefully I will get it right this time around. See you on Wednesday. Harry." Harry didn't stop to take a break. He quickly grabbed another sheet of paper and wrote on it "Hermione. Good news. You have to read this Now. I WAS MADE A PREFECT ASWELL. I couldn't believe it. When I went to read my Hogwarts letters I thought it looked a little large. Oh and yeah I will be in Diagon Alley on Wednesday thanks for the book. Looks interesting. Harry" Harry then wrote to Albus. "Hello Professor I have received your letter and Sirus and myself should be home tomorrow around noon. See you then. Thanks for making me a Prefect. Harry."

Harry ate his breakfast as quickly as he could before it got cold. "Mrs. Fig thanks for everything. I wish I could help you out one of these days, well the next time I see you. Have a good year."

"Harry you will be seeing me sooner then you think. Albus has informed me that he would appreciate my help around the school. I do not know what he would like help with but I do know he wants help." Mrs. Figg informed the two.

"Sirus we will be home tomorrow at about noon right?" Harry asked. "I already wrote the letter to Professor Dumbledore but I can change it still."

"Yes Harry we will be home about noon tomorrow. I hope that you will put that Albus may if he wants can join us to the Three Broomsticks for some Butterbeer." Sirus replied to Harry.

Harry adds on to the note to Albus that he may join them to the Three Broomsticks. "Yes I put that. I wasn't sure if you would want to invite him or if we where even going to go. So I just added that."

"Harry Albus is always invited to join us anywhere." Sirus said with a little force in his voice.

The drive was long. Harry and Sirus passed through many towns. Harry even one point said why don't we just take the night bus. Its very quick, but Sirus said no because who would take care of the car. When the night came on Sirus pulled into a very well known hotel to the wizards. The hotel manager was a very old wizard who came from Bauxbaton. His co-owners came from both Hogwarts and Durmstrang. When Harry walked in the whole lot of them knew exactly who he was. Well it wasn't hard not to. Harry was after all in the TriWizard Tournament. The three of them came up to Harry and shock hi hand and said Welcome Mr. Potter. When they say Sirus the one from Hogwarts said oh Sirus long time no see. This went into a long stand still in a conversation. When the morning broke Sirus had requested a wake up call at 7:00AM. At 7:00AM the call came and Harry and Sirus woke up. They went to eat and then left.

"Sirus while we are passing through Hogsmead can we pick up a bit of Floo Powder so I can meet Ron and Hermione at Diagon Alley?" Harry asked Sirus as they where about an hour away from home.

"Sure Harry we can pick up some Floo Powder." Sirus said with a reassuring voice.

Harry ran into a store in Hogsmead and bought some Floo Powder. "That will be 7 sickles young Mr. Potter. Have a good day." Said the shopkeeper. Harry paid the 7 sickles of course before leaving. Harry got into the car and the two drove off towards Sirus' house. When they arrived Albus was waiting outside the door. Harry ran out toward Albus and greeted him.

"Hello Professor. You would like to speak with me." Harry said to Albus.

"Yes Harry. Sirus if you would like to listen in. Please do not hesitate to join in." Albus said in a reply to Harry and also towards Sirus.
