Chapter 1: The unexpected surprise
"I told you once boy, never bring that...thing... out in the open." Vernon Dursley snarled.
Harry sighed, waiting for the long lecture following this.
"Don't sigh at me, boy. There could be neighbors walking around, and you go and flaunt it by the window. Are you that daft?" Vernon growled, grabbing hold of the front of harry's shirt.
Harry's anger was welling up in his, wanting to explode. "leave me alone."
Uncle Vernons eyes went into small slits. "Don't you dare talk to me that way."
Dudley turned around away from his rashings of bacon he was eating to watch the fight in action.
"If you ever bring that out, ever AGAIN, you will be in for a world of pain, you got it." Petunia said, glaring down at the black haired boy.
"Yes, Aunt Petunia." mumbled Harry, glaring down at the ground.
"Get up to your room now, and do not come back down. If you do, you might as well get the hell out of here." Uncle Vernon growled.
"Fine by me." Harry snarled, surprising his relatives, and stomping up the stares.
As soon as he got up to his room, entered it and slammed the door, he wanted to scream.
Harry went to fall back on the bed again, but found not an owl, but a hawk on his bed instead. It was large hawk, black and white, the most beautiful creature he has seen, besides for Hedwig and the horned tail dragon he fought in his forth year two years ago.
He undid the letter from the Hawks leg, and watched as the hawk stretched it's great wings, and took off into the night.
He watched it until he couldn't see it any longer, and looked down back at the letter, not recognizing the handwriting on it.
Harry flipped over the letter, and found a crest with the letter 'M' on it. Harry frowned, because he only knew one person with the Last name starting with M. Draco Malfoy.
Dear Potter,
yes, I know you are surprised to actually thinking you would ever recieve an owl, I mean a hawk from me, including a letter instead of a curse, but I would like to let you know you will be staying with us at our mansion for the remaining time. Headmaster Dumbledore has asked Mother to take you in, as the weasleys are unable to do for the rest of the summer. Mother and I will be to get you at 7:00 p.m. tomorrow evening. We will, of course, be travelling by floo powder. The rest of the information about why you actually will be staying is beyond me, but Dumbledores orders. So be packed by the ordered time. We will be to get you soon.
Sincerely,
Draco Malfoy
Harry re-read the letter twice, shocked. He couldn't believe he had to stay at the Malfoy Manor for 3 weeks.
He looked up and fell back onto the bed, not wanting to sit back up. 'What could have happened that I have to be stuck with Malfoy for 3 whole weeks, by myself in the manor. with his mother. At least his father won't be there.' harry asked himself, shutting his eyes for a few minutes.
Harry stood up, and opened his room door, letter still clutched in his hand. he had to tell his uncle, aunt, and cousin by tomorrow at 7, or aunt Petunia would likely have a heart attack if two wizards shown up at her house, by fireplace.
he walked slowly down the stairs, contemplating what he just read.
As he entered the kitchen, there was a roar of outrage from Uncle Vernon.
"How could someone do that. The stupid people. You don't go out into a crowded place to kill someone, you would be caught, the idiot." Uncle Vernon growled.
Since no one paid attention to him enter the room, he decided to sit down until they figured out he was there.
Finally, Dudley turned to look out the window and spotted harry and gasped. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon turned to look at what the gasp was for, and spotted harry also, sitting back in his chair staring back at all of them.
Vernon started to purple up, and finally growled "I told you know to come out of your room, you stupid boy. What are you doing here?"
Harry finally sat up. "I wanted to show you a letter an owl," they all flinched, " delivered to me."
Vernon grabbed the letter from Harry, and started to read, sending harry looked as he read on.
"What is this supposed to mean, boy?" Vernon asked, handing the letter to Aunt Petunia.
"Exactly what it said. Dumbledore said I have to spend the rest of the weeks of my summer at the Malfoy Manor." Harry replied, coolly.
"I know who Dumbledore is. he is the headmaster now, isn't he?" Petunia asked, surprisenly shocked with herself, but not as shocked as Uncle Vernon.
"H-How did you know that, dear?" Vernon asked, studdering.
"He is the one that asked us to bring 'him'" she looked at Harry, "in. The one who told us about what was happening. He is now headmaster at Hogwarts." Petunia replied, a little shakily.
Vernon gasped. "You said the name."
"Can we get back to the subject of this convorsation, please?" Harry asked, slightly annoyed.
They both glared at him. "Yes, who is this Draco person?"
Harry glared at nothing inparticular."He belongs to the most evil wizarding family in all of the wizarding world. plus, he is my enemy at my school."
Vernon gaped, but brought himself together. "Well, if you have to, you have to. And maybe spending time with the boy will knock some common sense into you."
Harry looked up, shocked. He was expecting to at least get yelled at. And he actually held on to a thread of hope that his uncle would forbid him to go. He sighed and stood up.
Harry glared again. "Fine, I must go pack then."
At that, harry walked out of the kitchen and dissapeared to his room.
A/N: umm...yeah. This is my new fic, so don't flame me too bad about this chapter. Also, this story is as follows: Lusius did go to Azkaban, so he will be staying with Narcissa and Draco for the summer, and there is no threat to harry. Just to let you know, this idea Mind Switch came to me as I was watching a movie in science class, but never got it started until a couple nights ago.,2 months later. Please don't flame me for the chapter, unless it is for improvements I could do. TTYL everyone!
