Chapter 2: Who is that?

"Six Privet Drive..." the mysterious man responded.

It had been nearly an hour since the man called Lidro had explained to Anna that she was a witch. She had in turn told him that she had out-grown the whole magic thing when she was seven.
She knew that it was all just a lie to try to keep her there. Why else would he have locked her in the second floor bedroom? But then again... it would explain all those weird things that had happened to her over the years. Like the time her foster brother had locked her in the closet and the door disappeared causing him to crash headfirst into the dustbin.
'That's it!' she thought. If I did it that time, then I can do it again!
Anna positioned herself right in front of the locked door. She concentrated for about five minutes on making the door disappear until suddenly it splintered into millions of pieces. Lidro walked through the shards clapping profusely.
"Well done!" he said, smiling from ear to ear. "You have more power than I thought!"
"What the hell? I couldn't have done that..." Anna snapped back, though she hoped it really had been her in a way.
"You know you did. It's alright Anna. Just concentrate on an object. Concentrate on levitating it... or blowing it up," he added glancing down at the door shards.
"Can I go outside?" Anna asked pleadingly.
"You have to stay in the yard. We can't have you wondering off and getting lost. But just incase," he said pulling out a thin, wooden object and waving it around for a couple of seconds. "That should do it should you get curious of what the rest of Little Whinging looks like. Now you may go."
Anna tore out of the bedroom so fast that all you could see was her long, purple hair whipping the door frame.

Harry was just finishing up a round of his favorite game, Chase Dudley Around With the Wand, when he ran full speed into his enormous cousin, knocking himself to the ground.
"Dammit Dudley!" he said getting up and dusting off the dirt from his pants. "Are you completely daft?"
Upon saying this, he finally realized why Dudley had such an awestruck look on his face. There was a girl next door. A beautiful one. She was thin with purple hair and noticeably nice assets.
"Who is that?" Harry asked, dumbfounded.
"Dibs!" Dudley nearly yelled and took off at a trot for the neighbor's front lawn.
"Dudley!" Harry yelled as he ran after him. "Don't make me jinx you Dudley!" This was enough to stop Dudley dead in his tracks. He changed course for his own front door and slammed it upon entering.
Harry walked over to where the girl lay in the lawn face up with her eyes closed. He stood over her admiring her for a second until she opened her eyes abruptly.
"Hi!" she said cheerfully.
"Umm... hey," Harry choked out. He had never talked to someone his own age outside of school... except Dudley that is.
"Are you the kid next door?" she asked sitting up. Harry noticed her accent. She had to be American. "'Cause I have a tendency to fall for people who live close to me."
At this statement Harry's face shone brick red.
"Yeah... I live in number 4," he said, still in full blush.
"Oh... well that's cool. I just got here with my... uh... dad."
"I see."
"But I won't be here for the school year. I'm going to be sent to a private boarding school."
"Wow... well that's cool, because I won't be here anyway. I go to a boarding school too." Harry smiled really wide. Just met not three-and-a- half minutes ago and they already had something in common.
"So," the girl said raising her hand, "now for a proper introduction. My name is Annalyse Mea-Leigh Parker... Anna is good though. What's your name?"
Harry extended his palm to meet Anna's. He shook it amiably.
"Harry," he said happily. "Harry James Potter."
"Well, ok Harry. You are my first friend in England."
