chapter 4: the summons
Harry sat at the kitchen table across from his cousin, eating his eggs in silence. The only sounds in the kitchen were the rubbery noise of Dudley's chewing and the click of cutlery on plates. Harry, feeling slightly ill, didn't feel like eating. It seemed impossible that the Dursleys could sit calmly at the kitchen table when the most evil wizard in the world was unleashing his powers on both the muggle and wizarding worlds. Excusing himself, he left the kitchen and took the stairs two at a time up to his bedroom. The sick, roiling feeling that had occupied his stomache ever since last night was still present and his head was pounding unpleasantly. The first thing that he noticed when he opened his door was that Hedwig had returned. He hurried to her and untied the scroll with shaking fingers. The note was short and it looked as if it had been scrawled in a great hurry.
Harry - No time to explain. Be ready to leave tonight. Be at your window at 8:00 pm. We will not wait for you. Professor Dumbledore
Harry felt a surge in his stomache. He stumbled around his room, collecting items to pack away. He went downstairs to find some odd items and found the Dursleys finishing breakfast. "Come here boy." his uncle growled at him. Harry turned quickly. "Yes?" he said tersely. "Your aunt doesn't have the time to do the dishes this morning. We, that is your aunt, Dudley and I, are going on a drive and will be out late. If there's any funny business, then you will find yourself grounded before you can blink." Harry nodded curtly and left the kitchen with the tutting of his aunt sounding behind him. "Such disrespect he shows us...."
Harry sat on his bed, to nervous to do anything else. It was only 10:00 and he was already ready to leave Privet drive. He stood and began to pace the length of his room. Hedwig watched his progress with her head cocked to one side. Hary sat once again on his bed. The time was aching slowly by. It was only 10:02. Harry leaned back on his pillow, resting his spinning head. Slowly, his eyes closed.
Harry woke with a start. He grabbed his clock to check the time. He had been asleep for nine hours. It was 7:30. Harry passed his hand over his rumpled hair, while groping for his glasses with the other hand. There was a small tap on his window and Harry looked up, startled. Hagrid was floating outside his window on the old motorbike that Harry had only seen in his dreams. This must have been the motorbike that had once belonged to Sirius. Trying not to think about the previous owner of the bike. He grabbed Hedwig's cage and his trunk and opened the window. " 'Arry!" Hagrid whispered " 'Ow are yeh?". Hagrid's beetle-black eyes were saturated with concern. "There's no time for hta now." Harry said as he handed out his trunk to Hagrid. "I'll tell you all about my summer after we get wherever we're going and after you explain what's going on." Hagrid nodded and kicked the throttle as Harry climbed onboard. Harry clung tightly to Hagrid's enourmous back as they soared over the now tiny houses, up and away into the clouds.
