"What are you doing?" Harry demanded.

"Boy - cooperate with her for you get to spend the afternoon," Uncle Vernon said, his right hand pointed at Harry, his left gripping a pile of bank notes behind his back.

"I don't want an interview," Harry protested, "Must change -"

A cameraman, next to the lady with pink robes and yellow trim, snapped a picture, capturing the image of Harry, standing there at the base of the stairs, wearing nothing save the ragged and damp grey T-shirt that went down to his knee-caps along with the pair of pink slippers.

"It's not just an interview -" Skeeter said.

"Listen Boy," Vernon said, "You are to cooperate if you wish to remain in residence here - take the remainder of the day."

Dumbledore's conversation from June went through Harry's head. Uncle Vernon's hand gripped Harry by the shoulder and shoved him out the door. Harry heard the door lock, then looked at Skeeter.

"We're going to have fun today," Skeeter said.

Skeeter escorted Harry down Privet Drive; Harry looked over his shoulder to see several cars pull into number four Privet Drive after he left. They made their way over to the playground on Magnolia Crescent. Harry followed, walking and aware that one good breeze could have him showing his privates to the neighborhood.

"A quick Privacy Charm," Skeeter said, waving her wand around the empty playground, "Sit"

Harry sat on a swing, saw her cameraman snapping a picture from in front, he blushed.

"I hate interviews," Harry said.

"This is a photoshoot," Skeeter said. With a flick of her wand, Harry's clothes left him.

That evening, Harry laid on his bed, shaking his head at the photographs in the complimentary edition of Witch Weekly that Skeeter had given him, photographs Harry knew would be used and misused throughout the wizarding world by young witches and wizards, photographs that Uncle Vernon was paid off for.

A door slammed downstairs followed by a voice, "Dudkins! ... Vernon, can Ripper use that second bedroom upstairs? Wouldn't want him to suffer outside..."
