reviews! As I promised, I shall continue with my story!!!! Yay! Please,
enjoy!
Harry slowly crept down the stairs. His hand clutching tightly on his wand inside his pocket. Harry could hear Dudley and a couple of his large friends run in panic while screaming like mad. Harry was sure that whoever or whatever the intruder was, it had to be something magical. Once Harry reached the bottom of the stairs, he was very surprised to see the sight of three Weasley brothers standing before him. Each had grown a few inches taller. Fred and George were still shorter than Ron but it seemed they had grown a lot. Each of the twins were about 6 feet while Ron was a towering 6`3. All three Weasley brothers were smiling goofily at Harry.
"Well hello there, Harry! Awfully good to see you again." George said grinning from ear to ear. It seems as though they arrived by floo powder. Harry, who didn't expect any visitors was still in a state of shock. "What are you doing here?" Harry managed to choke out.
"We were worried about you, mate. You didn't reply a single letter I wrote!" Ron said. "I was afraid that Pig might've intercepted the letter. I wrote to Hermione and the letter came up fine. You alright mate?"
Harry, who quickly remembered the dozens of letters he had crammed inside an empty floor board, suddenly felt a rush of guilt come towards him. He had been to lazy to reply both of his best friends letters. How could he have been so dumb?
"Sorry. It was.umm.It was the Dursleys. They burnt all the letters before I was allowed to read them." Harry said, trying his best to come out with an understanding lie.
"Well, that wasn't very nice of them. But never the less, you could've told us you couldn't get our letters. It would save us the scolding mum's gonna give us when we return." Ron said, frowning. It was very obvious that they had used floo powder without permission.
Harry stammered. He could feel his face burning and was very sure that he was blushing. Now what? I have to come out with another excuse before they start getting suspicious. They would think I'm an arrogant git who's too busy to reply!
Before Harry could open his mouth, Fred suddenly cut in ; "Oi! Is that Dudley!" He said edging to get a better look at Dudley who was hiding in the dark shadows at the hallway with his friends. Harry sighed in relief, very thankful that he didn't have to answer.
Dudley cowered in fear as Fred made his way closer. Dudley's friends were shocked but quite amused at Dudley's fear. Fred moved even closer towards him, smiling maliciously. "Didn't know you had friends Duddikins! Oh well. I suppose you forced them into becoming your friends, did you?"
Dudley's pale face turned red with anger. Just like his father, Dudley was the type of boy who allowed his anger to rise above his fear. "Shut up, freak!" he snarled. ( Harry could practically see steam come out from his nostrils) Dudley clenched his fists and pointed them at Fred's nose.
"Aah, now. Temper, temper. Duddikins." George said, coming to his brother's aid. Harry was sure that George was holding on to his wand from inside his pocket and from the expression on Dudley's face, he was sure that even he understood. " Hello there mates. Pleasure seeing you." George said, sticking out his other arm in front of Dudley's friends.
All of Dudley's friends cowered as well. They were quite certain that whoever made their leader cower like a chicken, was obviously horrible. " Hmm.just like you to have cowards as friends, Duddikins.'
Ron grinned goofily beside Harry, who couldn't help but grin as well. It was great to see his friends again, no matter how bad his condition was. Suddenly, the cookoo clock in the living room rang. Since Ron couldn't tell Muggle clocks, he looked down at his watch instead. "Bloody Hell! We're going to be dead if we don't get back now! Mum's gonna kill us!"
The twins, who were busy taunting Dudley and his gang, suddenly stopped dead in their tracks with their eyes wide and their faces pale. George pulled his twin towards the fireplace, put in a pinch of floo powder and dived into the blazing fire. In seconds, he was gone. Fred, Ron, and Harry followed suit.
So? How'd you like? Is it to short? I wanted to make this chapter have a bit of humor. I guess it didn't turn out that funny. please review! I promise to continue if I get another 2 or 3 reviews. It depends on my mood. Oh well. REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
