Ch 1: The Letter

Harry Potter was now 22 years old. His jet-black hair was as messy as ever, and visible through it, a lightning bolt scar. His green eyes had a bright new twinkle in them. Harry played Quidditch professionally on the Britain team as seeker. He played alongside his best friend, who was keeper, Ron Weasley.

Just as Harry was about to sit down to watch his favorite television show, ElimiDate, his owl, Hedwig, flew in. Hedwig was holding Harry's mail and a copy of 'The Daily Prophet.' He walked over to Hedwig, took the paper and mail, sorted through it and stopped half way. There it was. A white envelope with the golden initial of 'E' stamped on the back. He ripped it open and read aloud:

"Dear Mr. Potter,

We are pleased to say, you have been selected to appear on the next episode of ElimiDate. You have passed all requirements and regulations. Congratulations. Please be at this address Monday at 10 o'clock: 3480 Knights Way, London. We shall be awaiting your arrival.

Sincerely,

Neville Longbottom

He was so happy! But he had a problem in his face. How could he tell Ron and Hermione? After all, they were his best friends. But Harry knew, oh too well, that they would indeed laugh at him. So he came to the decision. He would tell them anyways. Whether they laughed or not, Harry was going to tell them. He got up; walked over to his desk, pulled out everything he would need for his letter and began to write.

''Dear Ron,

How are you? Did you see the match between France and America last week? If you didn't, America won 350-275 in a 10-hour match! It was great. Well, I know you are probably going to laugh, but I'm going to be on ElimiDate. I know you are laughing your bloody head off now, but it's true. I think it's the only thing that will get me a date. Also, get this, Neville! Neville Longbottom is the host! Well, I've got to go now. I'll see you later. Bye,

-Harry''

PS-Will you please send this back with Hedwig and tell her to take it to Hermione? Thanks Ron.

I hoped you liked my first chapter, and I will be updating soon, I hope, see-ya later.
