Disclaimer: No, my mom doesn't make them... I get them from a little bakery about a ten minute walk from here. Haley Shannon is my gf's mom though... Anyway, I don't own, you don't sue, that makes me sad, now I am blue.

Author's Note: Even though I posted ch. 4 this morning, I have an insatiable urge to keep writing. Also I woke up late and missed badminton, so I really have naught better to do. Anyway, as I said before, half in Harry's and half in Gin's. Here ya go!

XXXXX Chapter Five XXXXX

)Harry Potter(

Well, this is home. When I walk in I see a huge double-joined staircase for welcoming guests. There are quite a few paintings here, most of them landscapes, a few pictures of my ancestors and a picture of Dumbledore's brother. I kept walking in to see a split hallway, I go left. Left is a large living room with extremely old-fashioned furniture. It is centered around a large muggle TV that was charmed to work with a few quick spells. Also there is a small bathroom in which everything is completely white except for one black rose on the windowsill. I pass the stairs again and go right. I see two guest bedrooms, and the kitchen which has a few muggle objects as well. Then there is a raised dining room with huge, extremely ornate mahogany chairs around a matching table. Another bathroom. Then I come to the three story great room.

All I can really say is WOW. Again, super-old fashioned furniture, but just centered around the windows, and since the house is on a hill a view that can see until almost the start of the cobblestone path. There are overlooks and balconies from all three floors, and a fireplace on the edge of them, with a waterfall cascading down the fireplace wall until the mantel. I turn it on and the acoustics of the room are amazing. Ron, Dumbledore, Hermione and Ginny come in a minute later and I can tell they are thinking the same thing. I walk out of the room and go into a study, then one of those 'conversation pit's that are so popular in fancy Muggle homes. There is a back staircase at the end of the hall, but instead I go back and take the main one. I stand in the middle and smile down at my friends coming up.

At the top of the stairs I see a branch staircase to the third floor, but I don't go yet. I turn left and see a replica of the Gryffindor common room, except it has a much bigger bookshelf that is completely packed full. And instead of Gryffindor banners there is the Potter family crest, and instead of scarlet and gold, it is scarlet, opal, and gold. I turn around and come to a room full of swords, staffs, and other weapons with some exercise equipment. Then I see a small library opposite the great room's balcony.

At this point a small yellow and white kneazle came up to me, sniffed me, and rubbed my leg. Dumbledore chuckled. "That was your mother's, Harry, her name is Selene." Ginny and Hermione ran to pet it and kept petting her and cooing to her and rubbing her, while I just smiled. "Dumbledore, how many pets are in here?" "Um, a fwooper, a moke, and Selene are the magical pets, and 4 ogon koi, a grey Macklot's python, a rabbit, and a muggle fish tank are the muggle pets. Also, the house elf died about two years ago." I could only shake my head. "Did my parents get all of them?" "All except the python, Hagrid sent that as a birthday present to your dad." "And they all go around the house wild? Except for the fish, I mean." "No, only Selene and the fwooper." The next room consisted of a large table with quite a few chairs around it. Not sure what that was. Next was a guest bedroom. Then there was a room with a small pond containing four ogon koi. I watched them for a minute before going up to the third floor. Around this point a sky-blue fwooper with a green tail landed on my shoulder.

It was a branch staircase so at the landing I went left. I came to what I could tell was my parent's room. It was a large room with extremely ornate furniture that must have cost a fortune. It was mainly mahogany, but with some oak accents. The bed was a huge four-poster with a canopy and tons of curtains. On the nightstand I saw a glass cage with a moke in it. The ensuite was very nice, tons of marble and granite counters. I left my parent's room and on the other branch there was two bedrooms and two other rooms. One had what muggles would call 'bunk beds' and was almost completely made out of pine wood. It had it's own bathroom. The next room was a playroom for young kids. It had a really big tropical-freshwater muggle fish tank with seven fish. The next room was circular and had a large, open window with five perches, two of which had owls on. The fwooper landed on the smallest. I realized that these must be my parent's owls. One was a gigantic great grey owl, and the other one was a small white and grey hawk owl. My parent's owls. Also in the room was a small rabbit hutch containing an extremely furry grey rabbit who's ears hung down instead of up. The next room...

...Was my room. It housed an antique crib along with a queen bed that was very high off the ground. A landscape painting of a glacier lake in the mountains, a very strange-looking metal lamp, tons of picture albums, etc. Also I saw a seven-compartment trunk that had a very nice-looking knotwork design carved on top. On top was a letter and a keychain with eight keys. I opened the letter and sat on the bed.

Dear Harry.

If you are reading this, James and I are dead. Voldemort is after us and we have entrusted Pettigrew as our secret keeper, but I have my doubts about that. I'm sure you have already received our inheritance in your Gringotts vault, but in the seven compartments of this trunk are the things we left you that aren't in your vault. Four of the compartments are small rooms which you can decorate, but the other three contain some things that we couldn't put in the vault. You will find these three in compartments one, three, and seven. In seven there is a special surprise for you. After, if you want you can move the things in it and use this trunk for school. Sorry James couldn't write anything here, he is out on auror business and will be back in a week.

Love always, your mother Lily

I opened the first lock and I found all the things I'd need for school this year. At this point Ginny, Dumbledore, and Hermione were watching too. Ron was still downstairs. In the second there was a step-ladder leading to a bare room with a roll of blank parchment in the corner. There was a blue handprint on the floor. On the top, it said

Harry, all you have to do is picture the room the way you want it to be in your head while your hand is on the handprint, and the room will turn into it. –Your dad James

Harry placed his hand on the handprint, and pictured a small study with pine flooring, scarlet walls, and charmed windows made to look like a rainstorm over a forest lake. It became real. Only Ginny and Hermione came down, and watched the transformation take place. Harry smiled and moved on to number three, where there was tons of photo albums, clothes and diaries. Number four became a training room, with a duelling stage and tons of other weapons. Also there was a statue which he could animate to practice with. Number five became almost a replica of the common room on the second floor, except with a smaller bookshelf. Number six became a big Japanese garden with a waterfall pond, a bridge, benches, and lots of exotic foliage. Also there were a few birds flying around, and some frogs and small fish in the pond.

Number seven. Was also a small stepladder, leading down to what looked like Dumbledore's office except there were only a few paintings, one of Godric Gryffindor, one of Dumbledore, one of his brother, one of his grandfather, and one that said James and Lily Potter but they weren't in at the moment. Also, there was a gold and red phoenix which was looking at me very... Hold it. Did I just say there was a phoenix? Oh crap. So, that's the surprise! I have a phoenix! Which tilted it's head and flew over to me. I sat back at the desk chair and Hermione, Ron, and Ginny came down as it landed on my shoulder. They looked sufficiently freaked out. Ron only managed a Bloody Hell! Hermione was speechless, and Ginny just came right down and said "Where'd you get that?" "Right there, it was waiting for me as I came in." "Well, open the letter." I noticed there was a small letter on it's leg. I opened it, it read in my dad's tight, slanted printing:

Hi Harry!

My name is... I don't have a name. I am a he, however. I am a present from your parents. You can take me to Hogwarts if you want. Don't worry, I don't bite... or scratch, or peck. Your father said it is in your blood to become an animagus, so if you are a bird animagus you can go flying with me! I understand English, I can't speak of course ;) Anyway, bye!

Your pet Phoenix

At this point, I heard a voice in my head. 'Tine?' I thought. 'Yes. I got bored and decided to check out how you're doing.' 'What should I name him?' 'How about Raib'hel? It means...' 'No.' 'Oh, how about Foel-gohn? It means Firewing.' 'Hmm. I like it. Thanks, Tine!' 'No problem.' I turned back to the phoenix. I asked him, "How about Foel-gohn?" He tilted his head and trilled loudly. "Good. Your new name is Foel-gohn." Hermione looked at me quizzically. "What's that mean?" "Firewing. Mind if I bring him back to the burrow?" "That's fine." said Ron. He perched on my shoulder again and trilled gently while spreading it's wings. Dumbledore looked surprised, to say the least. He never looks surprised. I got out of the trunk, closed the lid, shrunk it, and put a super-light charm on it so I could just carry it like a briefcase. I then left the house by portkey to the cottage.

)Ginny Weasley(

So. Harry's house is amazing. He got a phoenix. For some reason he was really freaked out It would take too long to describe the house, so now let's see the cottage?

The portkey brought us to a dark alley. Dumbledore cast an invisibility charm on the phoenix, because we would walk through a muggle town to get there. He told us that we were in Clifden, a small town in west Ireland. Ron asked Harry, "Have you been following the Irish Separate Quidditch League?" "Not heard of it." "The sixteen towns in Ireland with the biggest wizarding population formed their own league. There's some old players from the Kestrels and some have played for Ireland. The team are Doolin, Kilkee, Sligo, Dingle, Blarney, Aran, Belmullet, and Clifden, yeah, this place has a team, and there's Inistioge, Wicklow, Monaghan, Tipperary, Youghal, Tara, Rosslare, and Cavan. I think Inistioge is playing Clifden tonight, maybe we could get tickets!"

We first stopped for a snack at a small café called UPSTAIRSdownstairs, then walked for the harbour. We took the small road out of the harbour called the Sky Road, and we walked that for about twenty minutes, then we came to a cliff where we could see over the entire harbour, the Omey Islands, everything. Dumbledore told us that the cottage was on a small island just west of here, so Harry and Dumbledore were about to levitate us all when Harry realized "What are we doing? We can just use Foel-gohn, and Dumbledore, you can get Fawkes. He did. Hermione grabbed onto me, I grabbed onto Harry, Harry grabbed onto Foel-gohn, then Ron and Dumbledore both grabbed onto Fawkes. After making sure that there was no one watching we concealed ourselves and flew to the island, where a happy Buckbeak was waiting for us.

That's weird. Apparently Harry didn't know. Dumbledore said "Yes, in your letter from Gringotts Sirius did say you would have Buckbeak, and he did say he would live here, correct? I took the liberty of bringing him over a few days ago." We came to a small wooden gate. Again Harry touched the middle and it flew open. We came to a small white stucco house on the top of a hill. There was a bridge over a small pond which two waterfalls framing the stairs led to, stone steps, and the same little crest on the door. Inside wasn't much, it was decorated a lot like the Burrow. It was three stories but still very small. At the bottom of the hill was a small stable set up for Buckbeak. Since I was the only one who had not flown him, I got to ride him around the island. That was really fun, but the landing really scared me. Anyway, Harry listened to Ron and it turned out that the Imps were playing the Clifden Celts tomorrow, so we got tickets. When we finally returned to the Burrow it was past bedtime, so we just had a small dinner. Tomorrow-Diagon Alley!
