Harry looked around his room.
"Im sure I've left something" He double-checked his bag. All his wizarding gear and some extra stuff to cause some trouble! The invisibility cloak with its entire silky splendor lay amongst the bag. Hedwig in his cage.
"Hummm.. Oh! Of course my firebolt!" How could he forget his most precious possession? As soon as he got to Ron's the first thing he would do (apart from thank the Weasly's a thousand times) was to have a ride on his broom. He began to dream of the clouds and the air between his black scruffy locks. KNOCK KNOCK-interrupted his thoughts
"They're early or I'm late!" Harry was surprised as they were usually late and last time they come by floo powder! Oh well change was good thought Harry. Harry raced down stairs with all of his things flying three steps at once.
"Err. nice to see you again" uncle Vernon's voice could be heard stern but forced. Harry notice Mr. Weasly had accidentally left his wand hanging slightly out of his pocket. Aunt petunia had called Harry from the bottom of the stairs while dragging fat Dudley into the kitchen (as far away from Mr. Weasly). Harry moved toward Uncle Vernon.
"Well my lad, good afternoon", pulling Harry aside, "I want no trouble! No letters sent back saying u were missing or caused these.err.wizards any harm" Uncle Vernon stood up straight as Mr. Weasly coughed.
"You sure you want him?"
"Yes, we love Harry's company" added Mr. Weasly with a smile. "Oh well. see you next year Harry" Uncle Vernon didn't even look at Harry as he turned round to close the door. Mr. Weasly gave Uncle Vernon a stern and pitiful look. Then turned sorrowfully to Harry.
"Come on everyone's waiting" Harry didn't look back but simply smiled as he jumped into the car.
The journey was pleasant just Harry and Mr. Weasly catching up. Harry guessed he as on special terms from Mrs. Weasly NOT to speak about last year and the whole goings on. Harry was glad although desperate to hear some news. Harry found out that Dumbledore wanted Harry to go there, as he needed 'his friends and some fun before the hard long work at school'. Harry guessed Dumbledore was also thinking about the future. Harry could wait!
They pulled up to the burrow and Harry sighed. As he looked upon the house one thought came to mind 'how he wished to live here'. His eyes wondered over the rickety tarots and skinny chickens running around until his eyes fell on a funny sight. Ron Fred George Ginny Percy and Mrs. Weasly all stood in a row waving frantically all with bright red hair and huge warm smiles. Fred and George were a bit cheeky as they had their fingers behind fellow standees.
"Harry! Great to see ya mate fancy Dumbledore suggesting something like this!" Ron cheered.
"Well its excellent to see you again Harry" spoke Percy with a huge important bow.
"Spliffing as usual" mocked George and Fred.
"Excellent, dabidose!" "Fred George! Behave! Hiya dear Harry welcome again I have diner on the go so come and make yourself at home. She gave Harry a huge hug; she had been like a mother to him. Ginny smiled and said a cute hello.
All the family Harry now a part ran inside. Ron and Harry went upstairs to his room. "So Harry what do you wanna do?" Ron was eyeing the firebolt under Harry's arm. Harry read his mind. His only reply was
"LETS GO!".
So after dinner Harry Ron Fred and George all went out for a ride. They all had a go on the firebolt although they did have better brooms than before (Distant relatives said Fred winking.) Mr. Weasly had told them "back before nine or no more free time" but of course she wouldn't blame Harry if they were late as George pointed out.
So they played a little Quidditch and went exploring. In the mist of it all they went a bit off track.
"Are you sure you know where we are?" asked Harry in a shaky voice.
"Yeah sure!" said Fred in an even shakier voice.
"Lets rest over their for a bit" Ron stopped in a small field surrounded by bushes. As they sat they heard a chanting noise and the sound of material on grass.
"What's that noise?" Harry jumped
"Its. its coming from over there" said George in a hushed voice.
All four, eyes and ears open, crept forward, on their knees, towards the spot where George was pointing.
Through the bush they saw a sight, which took their warm breath away and replaced it with a cold icy substance known as fear. Hundreds of Dementors gathered in a ghostly crowd. Waiting listening for someone or something. Fred whispered to the rest so quiet that Harry found himself straining to hear him.
"That's.That's horrible! What are they doing?"
"I dunno, but I feel queasy and see some of them coming our way they've spotted us," added Ron. A few of the Dementors had obviously heard them.
"Err guys, I can hold off one Dementor not a thousand!" Harry said backing with the rest, "lets go we've out lived our stay" They all jumped on their brooms and were off in a shot. The Dementors knowing their loss glided sorrowfully back to the rest of the unholy pack.
It was quite for a while until Fred broke the deathly silence.
"Just to clear this up, we just saw a field full of Dementors right?" George answered him with,
"OH NO! Yes to your answer Fred but we are late! Mums gonna kill us!" They rode as fast as they could, feeling wind flowing through their hair and clothes. They tried to catch the last ounce of thrill before pulling up in the burrow again.
"I don't think we should mention what we saw to mum or dad," said George in a soft voice.
"We can talk tomorrow as mum and dad are out shopping," agreed Ron. It was sorted then. Every one of them had the night to think about the mysteries they just broke in on.
