Chapter 2 Departing From the Dursley's House

Harry looked at the owl with a weird glare. 'Who would be sending me an owl at this time of night.' The owl held out its leg for Harry to take the letter. Harry reached for the letter with much reluctance and untied the bindings. The owl hooted affectional at Harry. Harry reached for his owl treats, but before he could the owl flew off into the night sky. For the first time Harry actually look at the letter. It had the Ministry of Magic stamp on it, and Harry knew right away what it was. It was his O.W.L. test scores. He opened it as fast as he could obliterating the envelope. It read:

We at the Ministry of Magic have finally got your Ordinary Wizarding

Level Test scores in. We are sorry for the delay for you in receiving

your test scores. We wanted to double check them just to make sure

that no one had tampered with them. Once again Sorry for the delay.

Have a great summer Mr. Potter.

Signed

Minster of Magic

There was a second piece of parchment behind the first Harry looked at it with glee.

Overall Mr Potter you did quite well with the exceptions of a few classes.

We have been told by Professor McGonagall that you wanted to become

an Auror. We will remind you that you need Defense Against the Dark

Arts, Potions, Transfiguration, and Charms. You will need top grades on

your N.E.W.T. to become an Auror. Keep your grades up Mr. Potter, and

Have a nice day.

Harry had not felt so happy since...... well he could not remember, and he did not want to think about it. With all that Harry went over to his to lie down. He fell asleep feeling the happiest he has been in months.

"DAMMIT BOY OPEN THIS ROOM NOW! DON'T MAKE ME BREAK THIS DOOR DOWN!" Roared uncle Vernon from behind Harry's bedroom door.

"All right I am up! What is all the noise about any ways?" asked Harry

"It is 11:00 A.M. boy," Harry opens the door " and it is about dammed time you got up. That is what all the noise is about."

Harry could not help but notice the redness in his face. Harry went down stairs to go and get something to eat. When he got there lunch was on the table, and Harry was feeling quite hungry. When he sat down Petuina said, "What do you think that you are doing? You are not eating today. You did not wake up early enough to EARN food. You see fit that you do noting else around here." Just as she finished Vernon sat down. With a noticeable shade of red in his face.

"Is she serous Uncle Vernon?" Harry asked in a hopeful tone.

"What do you mean?"

"The whole thing about me not eating."

"Yes quite dear Harry. You did not get up on time, and you do nothing around here so........ you get no food today at all."

"Need I remind you of what Mad Eye-Moody said at the train station. I believe that it is about time that send him another Owl. I believe he would like to know about this little incident."

When Harry spoke Mad eye's name Vernon got angry once again with his face turning bright red once again. "WELL THEN BOY GO AND DO THAT THEN BOY! I DO NOT CARE! COULD NOT DO ANYTHING EVEN IF YOU WISHED HE COULD! I KNOW THE RULES FOR YOUR KIND!" Uncle Vernon spat.

"Well then I will be contacting him immediately. I assume he will be here in a day or two with your punishment." Harry said very cocky.

"You do that then."

Harry then got up from the table and turned for the stairs. He stomped all the way up the stairs just because he knew it was gonna make Uncle Vernon even more furious. As soon as he got in his room he regretted what he said down stairs. He had sent Hedwig out on a letter to Cho. 'Oh well' Harry thought 'It has been 3 days already Moody will send a letter pretty soon any ways.' Harry just sat down at his desk and pulled out his standard book of spells grade 5, because he did not finish reading this one. Harry has absolutely no idea why though.

A whole day had passed, and Hedwig still had not come back. Harry was not eating because he was feeling a little bit salty about what happened yesterday. Harry had not spoken to Moody in 4 days now Harry expected an owl any time now.

Later that day an owl did come that Harry did not recognize. It was a beautiful light brown with dark black spots on it like Hedwig. Harry took the note off the owl's leg and it read:

Harry

How come you have not been sending owls? If you are alright

it is not a something to toy with. I was serous at the station.

You have been good at sending Owls so far this summer. I do

not see why you have stopped unless the muggles are miss

treating you. Well Harry send your reply with this owl.

Moody

Harry's heart filled with joy with receiving this letter. He was going to get back at Uncle Vernon. Harry took out his parchment and quill and wrote:

Moody

I woke up late yesterday and now the muggles are starving me.

I am hungry and they refuse to give me food.

Harry

Harry tied the letter to the owl, and it nibbled his fingers affectionately then flew off. 'Kind of an abrupt end' Harry thought. Harry went down stairs and sat down in the living room. Harry sat in a chair which was next to Dudly.

"So you came out of you eh Potter?" Remarked Dudly

"Well I guess you can see past your nose then eh Dudderkins."

"Shut up!"

"Dinner is ready Dudly." Petuina said. Aunt Petuina does not call him her little pet names much anymore, because Dudly erupted on time because she called him 'Dudderkins' infront of his gang. Dudly got up and ran towards the kitchen. Harry got up slowly and walked toward the kitchen.

"Oh so your eating to now are you?" Vernon said in a triumphant voice.



"Yeah I am."

"Hungry are you?"

Harry did not answer just sat down in his usual chair. Petuina was about to dish up for him but Vernon intervened. "No Petuina he is not eating till he answers me."

And just then the front door was smashed in with a long bang followed by a loud thud. The Dursley's look scared immediately petrified. Uncle Vernon secretly know what it was. There was a voice that rang out threw the house. It was Moody's with the recognizable clunk with each step.

"Harry where are you? Weight your threw that door." Uncle Vernon was blue in te face and almost shaking. The rest of the Dursley's were doing the same thing. Moody opened the door. Looking at Harry Moody speaks, "Harry you were not lying to me were you?"

"No of corse not! I was gonna see if I could eat again today, but he said I could not eat" Harry said while pointing to Uncle Vernon.

"So Muggle you thought that I would not come like I said I was going to do did you? Did not take me serous did you. Nothing make me more mad then when a muggle does not take me serious, and think that he can do something to me. Ha muggles like you are funny too."

"T-T-The boy lives in my house b-by my rules."

"So you think you can starve the boy do you." Moody lifts up his wand with sparks flying from it pointing it at Vernon getting his own face quite close to his. "Muggle you will feed this boy three square meals a day no matter what time he gets up at. And you will not be feeding him that crap you got on the table there. He will be giving me letters every three days now remember muggle!"

"Y-Yes sir."

"Now I have to be on my way. I am a busy person. By Harry and tell me if they mistreat you again."

"Sure think Mad Eye. Good bye."

With that Moody walked out of the kitchen, and back into the living room to repair the door. He did so and vanished. Harry could not help himself but grin the biggest of grins. Harry looked at the Dursleys. They all look blue in the face and still shaking a bit.

"Well you heard the man where is MY food. Not this crap." Harry said Aunt Petuina and Uncle Vernon Exchange looks of deep anguish.

"Coming right up Harry dear." Aunt Petuina managed. Well threw out the rest of the night the Dursleys said nothing to him. Harry got a steak while the Dursleys were eating steamed vegetables. Harry went up to his room filled to the brim and happy once again. Hedwig was still not back. 'Oh well' Harry thought 'I am tired any ways. She will be back once Cho has written to me.' With that Harry fell asleep with a good feeling in his stomach once again.

It has been a week since he sent Hedwig off with the letter and Harry was stating to worry. Ron had sent Pig to tell him that they would be here tonight at about 5:30 in the afternoon. It was only about 12:00 at the moment and Harry was filled with excitement to get away from the Dursleys. He was all packed and ready to go. Expect that Hedwig has not come back yet. It was really starting to bother Harry. 'What if Cho hates me so much now that she never wants to talk to me again.' Harry thought to himself. 'What if Hedwig got intercepted by Voldmort and now Hedwig is now dead.' No Harry would not believe that. It was just taking Cho a long time to write him back. That is what Harry decided on finally. Then all of a sudden there was a loud bang from downstairs. 'It cant be the Weasleys it is still way to early.' arry though to him self

Harry decided to get up to see what it was when there was a nock on the door. When he was about the turn the door knob the door swung open and hit Harry in the forehead knocking him to the ground. When Harry looked up he saw Fred an George standing there.

"Sorry mate. Did not mean to nock you on the floor." Fred said

"Yeah we are here to retrieve you from the muggles. Dad sent us, because he is to busy with the minstry and stuff. Same with Mum. Ron the little git is still sleeping and ouw not get up to come and get you." Replied George

"Yeah I think that a good Dungbomb will get him up when we got back." Finished Fred.

"How come you guys don't have you own place with all the money your making with with joke shop." Harry replied.

"Still getting approved by the GITS in the ministry. Sent a from in as soon as we left last year. Now we brought some floo powder so you can come back with us. I know your not supposed to appear yet, but it is much faster then flying on a broom stick. Much less carrying your trunk too." Fred rambled.

With that the twin took Harry's trunk downstairs for him. Harry went about his room picking up the last minute things and Hedwig's empty cage. When he was down stairs Harry saw the twins trying to give Dudley some candy.

"Come on take it. It is good." George said

"Yeah the best candy you will ever taste!" exclaimed Fred.

Dudley remembering all to well what happened last time he accepted candy from Fred and George. "No way you eat it!."

"Looks like he is smarted then he looks eh Fred?"

"I don't think so, but I think he learned not to accept candy from us though."

"I would not eat candy you two offered me either." replied Harry. Fred and George just broke out in laughter.

"Harry mate you go first." George said. Harry took a fist full of floo powder and said "The Burrow!" Instantly being transported to his best friend's Ron's house. Getting away from the Dursley's house made him feel a little better but not much.

There is your longer Chapter. Chapter 3 will be up in a day or two. Peace. Nils/Jew Man
