Harry was sitting near the rose bush while staring at the setting sun. Unfortunately, he can't remember Hermione's telephone number no matter how hard he tried. Aunt Petunia was busy preparing dinner while Dudley is out on the streets again with his little gang.

Harry closed his eyes and took a deep breath and pondered on Mrs. Weasley's last word. " we'll get you out of there in no time, Harry. just behave yourself." She told him before leaving with the Dursleys at the train station.

" but I've been behaving myself for three whole weeks." Harry groaned. " get inside and help you Aunt!" Uncle Vernon yelled by the window. " be right there." Harry groaned then stood up. when he entered inside, a fluffy thing soared towards him like a bullet that he had to cover his face to protect it from harm.

"grubby owls! If I can just snatch them." Harry heard his Uncle Vernon grumbled when he recovered from the shock. Harry looked down at his feet and saw a think letter with a Hogwart's seal on it.

'oh shit! I forgot about that!' Harry's head screamed while he gaped at the letter. " well, what is it?!" Uncle Vernon demanded. Harry hurriedly picked the letter up and hid it away from his grasp. " nothing." Harry said. He was about to run upstairs when his aunt suddenly called him.

" I need help here!" Aunt Petunia cried in the kitchen. Uncle Vernon nudged him to get to her so Harry was unable to refuse. He went to the kitchen and started putting plates on the table.

" why are you in such a hurry?" Aunt Petunia asked him suspiciously. " n- nothing." Harry jerked his head up to answer her. Petunia glared at him before returning to her work.

" Dudders! Your home!" they heard Uncle Vernon cried when the door opened. Harry sighed. His whale-like cousin is home from bullying kids off the street. " Hurry up, will you?!" Aunt Petunia hissed at him.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry ate his dinner very fast that he nearly got time to swallow his food. " dad, why is Harry eating so fast?" Dudley asked his father. Uncle Vernon stared at him. " Mind your manners, boy." He told Harry but Harry was not listening. He drank up before jumping out of his chair. " I'm going upstairs." Harry said before he ran out of the kitchen. The Dursleys were unable to say anything.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry stared at the unopened letter in front of him. ' don't be stupid Harry and just open it!' Harry scolded himself but his hands were not following his command. They are shaking mad. " oh crap!" Harry sighed exasperatedly. He grabbed the letter and ripped it open. His hands was shaking when he unfolded the thick parchment paper. It says:

Harry was unable to say anything. He was so shocked. "I passed the OWL.God, I passed!" Harry smiled and jumped. " I passed!!!!!!!!" Harry yelled. " I PASSED!!!!" Harry cried in delight while jumping up and down. Then there were angry footsteps marching up to his room.

" will you shut up?!" Uncle Vernon shouted behind the door. Harry stopped jumping and threw himself on his bed. Harry was breathing very fast. ' I passed the OWL.goodness! I passed the OWL!!!!!' Harry's head screamed. Then there was a tap on his window. Harry jolted and saw a familiar snowy owl outside his window.

" Hedwig!" Harry cheered and opened the window to let her in. Hedwig hooted approvingly and dropped the letter on his bed. Harry tended to her needs immediately before pouncing at his letter. He saw the name Hermione Granger outside the envelop before ripping it open. It says:

Harry,
How are you? Look, we need to talk to you immediately. And Professor Dumbledore wants to talk to you too. oh Harry! I don't know how to say this. ok, I'll be fetching you in fifteen minutes. Bring all your things and tell your Uncle and Aunt that I'm taking you to France for a vacation. Just bring all of your things. oh and Moony wants to tell you that the group is still at Snuffles' house. My father will honk when we arrive. It's 4 Privet Drive right? Ok.pack quickly!

Hermione

Harry just stared at the letter. ' what's going on?' Harry asked silently. Hedwig gave a hoot that made him jump. It took him a couple of seconds before tearing his room for his things. He secured Hedwig's cage first before he lifted his heavy trunk to take it downstairs.

" what's all that racket?" Uncle Vernon demanded but he froze when he saw Harry heaving his trunk down. " AND WHAT'S THIS SUPPOSE TO MEAN?!" Uncle Vernon demanded while shifting his angry gaze from Harry to his trunk. " My friend had sent me a letter telling me that she's taking me to France for a vacation. It's her parents' anniversary so I have to go." Harry lied while looking at his shocked Aunt.

" YOU'RE WHAT?!" Uncle Vernon shouted. " in short, I'm leaving for the rest of my summer vacation." Harry told him. " I don't believe you.nobody's nuts enough to take you to a trip abroad." Uncle Vernon told him while staring daggers at his way. " how will she fetch you? are they going to blow up our fireplace again?" Aunt Petunia asked, her voice was shaking. " I won't let this happen." Uncle Vernon murmured but Harry cut him off. " She's going to fetch me by car." Harry told him. Then the Dursleys stared at him in surprise. " you're cracking up!!" Dudley said. Harry sighed. " well, I don't care if you believe me or not but I'm leaving." Harry told them.

Uncle Vernon was about to protest when they heard a honk of a car from outside. " I think its them." Harry said. Aunt Petunia went to the door and peered outside. She gasped when she saw a brand new Benz outside their fence. " Dear." Aunt Petunia stammered. " What is it Petunia?" Uncle Vernon asked. Harry can see a vein throbbing on his forehead.

" It's a Mercedes Benz dear." Aunt Petunia told them. Uncle Vernon rushed to see if its true. They heard another honk. The Dursleys went outside to greet their fancy visitors. Harry followed their suit. Harry peered by the window and smiled when he saw how shock the Dursleys are when they saw Hermione Granger stepping out of the car with Mad-eye Moody.

" YOU?!" Uncle Vernon gasped when he saw Mad-eye. " oh yes I am. we're here to pick Harry Potter up. we're going to be late for our flight to France." Mad-eye told him. The Dursleys were unable to say something. " where is Harry?" Hermione asked while squinting to look for Harry's figure.

Harry took the timing to walk out of the door and casually greet his unexpected visitors. " Hi." Harry greeted them. " Harry!!" Hermione rushed to give him a hug. Dudley gaped at the sight. " ok, we're leaving now. Harry, where's your things?" Mad-eye asked him. " inside sir." Harry told him. " ok, let's get it." Mad-eye went inside the house without even bothering to ask the Dursleys. He and Harry helped on lifting his trunk while balancing Hedwig's cage on top of it. Someone went out of the car and Harry concluded that he must be Hermione's dad.

" let me help you with that, dear." He told Harry with a sweet voice then opened the back trunk to get it in. Hermione went inside the car and waited for Harry and Mad-eye to get in. " I'll be seeing you next holiday vacation." Harry told them then went inside the expensive car. " Bye, Mr. Dursley, Mrs. Dursley. Have a good vacation." Hermione's dad said before reviving his engine. " everybody ready?" he asked his passengers. Crookshanks leaped on Hermione's lap. Hermione looked at Harry and to Mad- eye. " yeah." She said before they sped away, leaving the three Dursleys shocked.

" so, where are we going?" Harry asked them.

" you know where we are going." Mad-eye told him. Hermione looked at him sadly.

" oh. " Harry murmured. ' Sirius' house.' he concluded silently.

" what's happening? You sounded urgent." He asked again. Mad-eye took a deep breath. " I don't know if we're the right person to break this news to you but Dumbledore told us to tell you immediately." Mad-eye told him. Harry can feel that behind the bowler's cap, his magical eye is staring at him intently.

" come on! the suspense is killing me!" Harry urged them. Hermione sighed.

" Sirius has a daughter." Mad-eye suddenly said.

"WHAT?!"
