Disclaimer- I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters because J.K. Rowling does. My story plot is based off of Mitch Albom's The Five People You Meet In Heaven.

The Five People You Meet In Heaven

Chapter Six-The First Person: Part One

Dumbledore stared at the young (well, compared to himself young) man seated in front of him. What was the point of being here? Who was this man? Do I know him?

The man just studied Dumbledore with great interest. Then he spoke, "You are probably wondering why you are here."

Dumbledore nodded his head. Ever since he had left Earth, his head had been filled with questions. This was one of the many.

The man did not speak for the longest time. Dumbledore only heard the silence of the world around him. He could here nothing, because there was nothing. Everything was still, silent, nonexistent.

"It is very quiet here," the man said, as though he could read Dumbledore's expressions and thoughts.

"Where's here?" Dumbledore thought.

It was after saying this that Dumbledore realized that the man could speak and he, himself could not. His voice box seemed to have temporarily left his body. Suddenly Dumbledore thought all of his questions to the mysterious man, hoping that he would get some answers.

"Why can't I talked?" Dumbledore began.

"No one can talk when they first arrive. It is very helpful to the people you meet and talk to."

"Who are these people?"

"You will find that out soon enough. I cannot tell you everything." the man responded.

"Where am I?"

The man looked at Dumbledore quizzically, as if he should already know the answer. "Where do you think you are?"

Dumbledore thought about it for a moment before answering, "The Riddle House in Little Hangleton."

"Well yes," the man answered. "if you like to get technical, but here, we don't. So, in a sense you are not in the Riddle house in Little Hangleton, you are in heaven."

"Heaven?" Dumbledore mused. "How can this be heaven?"

"Why can't it be heaven?" the man asked in response. "Anything can be heaven, and heaven can be anything."

"How could this be heaven though?" Dumbledore thought. "Three people were ruthlessly murdered here."

"Four." the man corrected.

Dumbledore was puzzled. He began to ask another question, but the old man held up a wrinkly hand to stop him.

"Those questions are for another time. For now, you must listen."

"In heaven, you will meet five people who had a great influence when you were alive, whether you knew them or not. I am your first person. When I died my death had something to do with you, which you will understand before leaving here."

"Leaving heaven?" Dumbledore thought to himself. "But that would leave..." Dumbledore did not want to think of what that would leave.

"You are already in heaven, so you will not leave."

Dumbledore tried as hard as he could to talk. This man's answers were just presenting more questions. Dumbledore tried to bring up sound so forcefully, that it felt like he would vomit. But alas, he didn't know this, but you cannot vomit in heaven.

Finally, Dumbledore was able to spit up a word. "How.."

The man studied as Dumbledore forced up his first words.

"How...did..."

The man was silent as he waited for Dumbledore to finish his first spoken question.

"How...did...you...die?"

"I was murdered by Lord Voldermort." he said simply.

A/N: That was great fun writing the chapter with the first person Dumbledore meets in it. I couldn't wait to. Anyways, I'll update soon. Please review:)

PS: To vaderfan220x- I don't mind at all if you write a fanfiction with Sirius and the five people he meets in heaven. I appreciate you asking. Let me know in a review when you post it cause I'd like to read it. lol It would be interesting to see someone else's take on Mitch Albom's book.
