Disclamer: I don't own Harry Potter or any other characters.
Chapter 3: Back At Grimmauld Place.
Harry lay down on his bed. Four days had passed since Harry had arrived, but he hadn't done anything constructive. Ron and Hermione were still at their own houses, and the rest of the Order were out on 'secret buisiness'. It had been four years since Harry had seen Voldemort come back, but still the Order was frantic with work, and the graveyard still haunted his dreams.
KNOCK KNOCK
Harry got up from his bed and opened his door. He could see a tinge of red-ish hair, before he was knocked flat.
"Chill, Hermione!" He said. Hermione let go and got up, she helped Harry up and kissed him.
"I've missed you so much!" Hermione said, hugging him again. All of a sudden, she slaped him!
"What was that for?" Harry asked, stunned.
"That's for not writing to me over summer," Hermione replied sharply.
"I did! I wrote about four times, to ask you out!" Harry said in protest," Ron, did you get me letters?"
"Yup, but only just, Hedwig didn't look to well."
"Come to think of it, where is Hedwig?" Hermione asked, looking around the room.
"I haven't seen her since I sent you the last letter, about five days ago," Harry said," I hope she's alright."
"How about I ring my parents, maybe she got their a little late?" Hermione suggested.
"Ok, I'm gonna Apparate to my Uncle's house, see if she is there," Harry said," Ron, could you ask everyone in the house if they have seen her please?"
"Sure," Ron said," Shall we meet at the Cafe near your Uncle's, Harry?"
"Ok, I'll be half an hour at the most," Harry said, then Apparated.
"Same," Hermione said. She walked off to find a payphone.

HARRY
Harry arrived at Privet Drive a few seconds later. He stood outside , pondering what he was going to say. After about five minutes he built up the courage and rang the doorbell. Vernon answered the door, and gasped when he saw Harry.
"Harry, um..., what a surprise," He mumbled.
"Hi, just wondering if Hedwig had come back here," Harry said sweetly," Has she?"
"Your owl?" Vernon said, Harry nodded," One second, I'll go check." He returned a few minutes later. He shook his head and closed the door without a 'goodbye'. Harry stared at the door. then Apparated to Mrs.Figg's house. She hadn't seen her either. Harry walked to the Cafe and ordered a drink. He hoped the others had more luck than he did.

HERMIONE
Hermione found a payphone just down the road and tipped 20p in it. She punched her house's phone number in and waited for a connection.
"Hello?" A voice answered.
"Hi mum, has an owl come into my room while I've been gone?" Hermione asked.
"Not that know off," Hermione's mum said.
"Oh ok then," Hermione said, "Bye bye." She hung up the phone and Apparated to the Cafe's back alley. She walked out and saw Harry, looking sad. He looked up, saw Hermione and jumped to his feet.
"Did you-" Harry began, but was innterupted by Hermione's shoak of her head. Harry sat down again and ordered Hermione a drink.
"Hopefully, Ron may have found something," Hermione said brightly. One look from Harry told her that they were thinking the same thing, Hedwig had dissapered.
"Hay, you guys!" A voice called.
"What?" Harry grunted and turned around. Ron was running up to them.
"I've found her!" He said,"She's in the attic, come on I'll show you." They Apparated to the attic and saw Hedwig. But she wasn't alone. Another owl, a male, was with her, but the biggest surprise was the four little owl chicks.
"Oh my god!" Harry exclaimed. He moved slowly forward and reached out to stroke Hedwig. She gave a gleeful hoot and moved out of the away so they could stroke the little owls. Hermione was overcome with excitement and walked a bit to fast over to them. The big male owl took a swipe at her hand and left a very deep gash.
"Who is that owl?" Ron asked. Harry thourght he had recognised him.
"I think it's one of Malfoy's owls," Hermione said in disgust. Harry looked from Hedwig, to the male owl.
"Hedwig, that's sick!" Harry exclaimed.
"Harry, you can't help who you fall in love with," Hermione said quietly, and moved towards him.
"I suppose you're right," Harry said," But what are we going to do with the little owls?"
"I know!" Ron said," We could eat them!" The whole room burst out in laughter
"Not really Hermione," Ron said, scared. Hermione had advanced on him with her wand.
"I suppose we'll have to keep them here, so they can grow up and leave when they are ready," Harry said.
"YOU LOT!" Mrs.Wealey shouted," YOU'VE GOT FIVE MINUTES TO GET DOWN HERE OR YOU WON'T HAVE ANY DINNER!"
"Come on, before Mrs.Weasley blows her top," Harry said. They made their way down to the kitchen, and were ready to enjoy a delicious meal.
