Chapter 1
Harry looked outside of his bedroom window and was thinking about how only two weeks ago he had seen Cedric die right in front of him, and the Dark Lord had come back to power. The most powerful dark sorcerer in a century, Voldemort. All he wanted was to get away from this place, away from the Dursleys. You see, Harry Potter wasn't your average boy, he was a wizard. Harry Potter had just finished his fourth year a Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. How much he longed to be anywhere but here at the Dursleys. He missed the only two places that felt like home to him, Hogwarts and The Burrow. The Burrow was where his favorite Wizarding family lived, the Weasleys.
All of a sudden Hedwig, Harry's pet owl, came flying through his window and landed on Harry's History of Magic homework that he'd forgotten.
"Good, Hedwig! You've got Hermione's response. Well, let's have it." Harry asked Hedwig and she gave a feeble hoot and let Harry untie the note from her leg.
Dearest Harry,
I hope your doing alright? Well, I don't know if Ron's told you, yet or not. But I'm be leaving my parents house tomorrow and will be going to the Burrow. I'm going to be staying the rest of the summer with Ron and Ginny. I'll be staying in Ginny's room with her. I really wish that you could also be there with the me and the rest of the Weasleys. I can't imagine if Ron and Ginny get into one of their fights and I'm have to be in the middle. Oh well, how's your summer? What am I saying, probably as good as it can get as your at the Dursleys. I really wish Dumbledore would let you go the Weasley's house. Have a good summer, and owl me if you need anything. Or if anything is starting to get weird.
With love,
Hermione
P.S. Have you heard from Snuffles yet?
Just as Harry was about to think about Sirius, his godfather on the run from the Wizarding Jail, Aunt Petunia was yelling at Harry to come down stairs for breakfast. Harry went down stairs to see what was going on when he saw all kinds of presents everywhere and remembered how it was Dudley's 15th birthday.
"Just cook the breakfast and don't burn it!" Aunt Petunia screeched at him.
"Yes, ma'am," Harry responded deadly.
Ever since Dumbledore sent a letter to the Dursley's about how Harry almost died and was just barely saved, the Dursley's were even, if possible, more rude to him. How disappointed they were to know that he had survived and wasn't dead.
Uncle Vernon appeared in the kitchen, "FIX MY COFFEE NOW, BOY!" Vernon barked at him.
Harry said deadly again, "Yes, sir."
After Dudley opened up all 49 of his presents he was getting very mad because he had 49 last year and he was suppose to have more that 49. Aunt Petunia could sense a tantrum coming on so she got his attention right away.
"Oh, Dudley-kinns! Guess what Mummy and Daddy got us all for our specialist baby boy!" Aunt Petunia asked Dudley. Harry thought to himself, "Are they actually going to bring me with them!" Right at that moment she pulled out an envelope that said, "To Mummy and Daddy's Dudley-kinns for his specialist birthday!"
Dudley looked at the package weirdly, but shrugged his shoulders and opened it. Dudley pulled out three plane tickets to Hawaii, and right then and there all of Harry's hopes went away.
"WHAT IS THIS CRAP, MOTHER!" Dudley started his tantrum.
"Oh, Dudley-kinns, it isn't crap! No, no, no. Daddy has to sell some of his drills for some buyers in Hawaii, and so Daddy and Mummy decided that the whole family will go there for your 15th birthday! It's a beautiful warm island off the United States and it's where Mummy and Daddy went on their Honeymoon. So get packing we're leaving tomorrow!" Petunia finished smiling that her very fat child ran up stairs to start packing.
Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia advanced on Harry at that moment and Vernon started to speak, "And, you boy, you won't be going. We're dropping you off at Old Ms. Figg's house and you'd better be good to her or you'll regret the day you were ever born! Are we clear?"
"As clear as crystal," Harry said smartly and went upstairs to his room to owl Ron.
Ron,
I'm sorry about all of this. As much as all of your family, Hermione, and I want for me to be able to be at your house this summer it's not going to be able to happen. The Dursley's are going to Hawaii for Dudley's birthday, and their sending me to Ms. Figg's house. Could you please look after Hedwig for me while I'm at her house? It'll only be two weeks, and if not I'll understand. So I guess I'll see you on the train back to Hogwarts.
Harry
The next morning Harry woke up to his aunt Petunia yelling at him to get up so they could go drop off Harry at Ms. Figg's house. After they made Harry pack everything in the trunk of the car, in the rain. They dropped him off at Ms. Figg's door laughing.
Harry went up to the door and rang the bell, and Ms. Figg opened the door she smiled at Harry. Harry was very relieved to see that all of her cats were gone as she welcomed him in.
