Gryffingdor's Heir

Chapter 1

prologue

Through the window, open for owls, a man watched as a boy lay on his bed howling. The man sighed how he wished he could hug the boy, tell him he didn't need to mourn, that all who loved him were there for him. A breeze struck, carrying with it a tune that told the man he had to go. The man sighed again, he hadn't even gotten to the window this time.

Harry Potter stopped howling, he thought he had heard something in the wind, it was calling someone, not him though, someone else. Harry stood up and peered through his open window. Branches rustled in the tree across the street, Harry was sure he saw something on a broom fly away. Harry sighed it was probably someone from the order making sure he was okay, more importantly still there.

Start of the Story.

Harry woke at dawn by habit, he looked at Hedwig's cage she wasn't back from her hunt, she would be soon though or Uncle Vernon would lock her away like last time. Harry trudged down the stairs to make the Dursleys breakfast, he rushed it. Then he went and cleaned the house. With his chores finished Harry left a note saying he would be back to make lunch and left the house and walked to the park, where he had watched so many times, Dudley and his gang beat up little kids. They never came after him though, Dudley knew that if they did Harry might use magic on him. Harry sat on the only park bench that hadn't been destroyed by Big D and his gang. He laughed bitterly, if he used magic on Dudley he'd be expelled from his sanctuary at Hogwarts. But why didn't he, if he got expelled, he could still live in the wizarding world, in Diagon Alley or at Hogsmeade. Dumbledore couldn't make him stay at the Dursley's if he was expelled. At the moment Harry didn't even care if Voldemort just popped out of nowhere right now and hit him with an unforgivable. It would release him from all the pain Voldemort had caused him through his scar this summer. He hadn't kept up his occulemency, he didn't care anymore, what was the point of living if Sirius, the last person who loved him had died. But Harry knew that before he died Voldemort would have to die first he couldn't leave Hermione and the Weasleys to a world where Voldemort ruled. That would be Hell on Earth.

Harry looked at his watch "shit! 'flower pot' will kill me, I haven't made lunch and I have 10mins to make it, stuff 'em they can have my home-made salad." Harry had given his aunt Petunia the private nickname 'flower pot' this summer just to amuse himself when he got bored which was often all the time. Harry walked back to number 12 Privet Drive, briskly hoping 'flower pot' was outside eavesdropping on the neighbours. When he got back he was lucky 'flower pot' was outside, Vernon was at work and Duddikins was with his gang, probably traumatising Mrs Figg's cats. He quickly put together a clumsy salad and made himself a sandwich, then he went upstairs. He didn't care if 'flower pot' didn't like his food, she shouldn't make him cook it. Although he did consider himself a good cook.

All of a sudden Pigwidgeon, Hedwig, Errol, a school owl and an unfamiliar owl came through the window carrying what looked like heavy packages, then Harry remembered that today was his birthday, excitedly he took the packages from the owls and gave them all an owl treat before Errol, Pigwidgeon, the school owl and the other owl took a drink from Hedwig's bowl and flew away.

Harry opened the large package that Pigwidgeon had given him when he opened it two packages came out, he supposed that one was from Ron and one was from Hermione. He opened Ron's first it was a huge Chudley Cannons poster with the players zooming around it. And a book. Harry thought this was odd since he didn't think Ron the type who bought or even read books. Harry put it aside he would look at it later. Then he opened Hermione's, predictably a homework planner that gave him a proverb every page about not doing his homework and a book on advanced DADA. Then he opened Errol's package it had a cake, some home made fudge and a watch that had funny symbols on it, Harry thought this was strange as well because Mrs Weasley didn't usually give Harry expensive presents like this either, He would have to look at the watch as well. With Errol's package were Hermione, Ron and Mrs Weasley's cards, he'd read them last. Harry opened his package from the school owl two more packages fell out of this one. The first one was his OWL results and a Quidditch captain's badge, Harry supposed he'd been made Quidditch captain. The second package was from Dumbledore, it had a letter as well as this a funny looking box came with it when he tried to open it he couldn't he'd read the letter from Dumbledore to find out how to open it later. Lastly he opened the unknown owl's package, two letters fell out. Harry decided to read his letters.
