Author's note: Sorry for the delay folks. I was going to post yesterday but got carried away since it was my 13th birthday. Now guys {and gals} this chapters going to be shorter then usual but I will make sure the next one comes out by Christmas. Now for the story.

Surprises and Meetings

It was quite long and the attendant had told him that it had been carried by two strange looking birds.

In his room Harry opened the parcel to find a long stick and a piece of parchment.

The parchment read "Harry this is a staff, your dads. Its more powerful then a wand. Put the tip of your wand at its tip and it will combine. Snuffles

Harry did what he was told to do and when he was finished the staff had disappeared. Harry took his wand and thought what had happened and suddenly the wand became longer and actually morphed into his staff.

The next few days Harry practiced magic his staff and he understood what Sirius had meant be it being strong. It was so powerful that it made him good at divination.

Harry had received a letter from Ron that he and Hermione would be arriving that day. Harry waited for them and when the arrived they all ate lunch at the leaky cauldron when harry insisted that the other stay in his suite since it was large enough to fit in a small army.

After the usual ride to the vaults when they were shopping at the Magical utilities store Ron told harry

"I don't know how they did it but some how the twins got more money than the rest of the family put together. And the bought me and only me the best dress robe at madame malkins."

After suppressing his laughter with great difficulty harry told ron about the summer.

Author note: that's all for now folks but pleeeeeeese don't flame. when I told you that I made the previous short to make the next one longer that's what I wanted to do but I cut this chapter into two since I can only get to read from ffn if I posted this chapter {Parent's order} and I am desperate. Yours lovingly Another Harry Potter Freak.
