"Oh..right..." trailed off uncle vernon..."So what does being 17 have to do with ma- well..your ABNORMALITY anyway?"
"well..now since im an adult in my world...im allowed to use magic outside of school" said harry with a wide grin. "So you can't prevent me from doing anything, or ill use magic on you. Now if you'll excuse me..i- wait..what Hermione?"
For hermione kept poking him in the shoulder. "Harry..theres an owl on your other shoulder waiting to give you a letter."
Harry opened the letter. It said:
***************************************************************************************************************
FROM THE MINISTRY OF MAGIC
Dear Mr. Harry Potter,
Due to the fact that today is your 17th birthday (your original being July 31st, 1985) , you are now allowed to use magic outside of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I, however, MUST warn you NOT to use magic in front of ANY muggle or squib EXCEPT for the following people:
Mr. Vernon Dursley
Mrs. Petunia Dursley
Mr. Dudley Dursley
Ms. Arabella Figg
Mr. Argus Filch
Any magic used on or in the presence of a muggle/squib NOT on this list OR NOT approved by the Ministry of Magic will result in serious trouble with the Ministry of Magic, possibly resulting in 2 months or less in Azkaban, and a heavy fine. I therefore advise you NOT to use magic in front of anyone not approved by the ministry of magic. Furthermore, congratulations and happy 17th birthday.
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Cornelius Fudge
Minister of Magic

"Now, if you'll excuse me, Vernon, ill be leaving now," said Harry.
"Listen, you ungrateful little swine," said uncle vernon," you may be an adult, but you STILL MUST CALL ME UNCLE AT ALL TIMES!! or ill beat you so bad youll forget how to hold that stupid wand of yours!!
What happened next amazed both Harry , uncle vernon, and Dudley and Petunia, (who had come to see what was going on)
"TARANTALLEGRA!!!!!!!" screeched hermiones voice.
Immediately, uncle vernons legs jumped into a uncontrollable quickstep dance. During this, harry and hermione packed using magic, laughing their heads off.
"Goodbye then," said Harry. ILL see you when i come back..if i come back.."
And hermione and harry lept into her car and drove off into the night.
