Chapter 4
"SURPRIZE HAPPY SIXTEENTH BIRTHDAY HARRY "
A great noise swept over him, a large shower of confetti, balloons, and sparks meet him also.
"What the bloody hell " Harry exclaimed jumping about a mile into the air.
All standing in a circle around him were Remus Lupin, Fred, George, Ron, Ginny, Percy, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Hermione, Hagrid, and Lee Jordon.
"What is all of this supposed to be " Harry asked the crowd of people.
"Well if you don't remember, " Hermione Granger said, "Then I'll tell you it's July 31st "
Harry looked at her, she had really gone under a change, and her hair had in fact went straight and was no longer bushy, now that her teeth had shrunk she had the perfect smile, she had filled out more if you know what I mean, but she did die her hair dark brown, she had some make-up on, there was no other word for it she was beautiful.
"Oh yeah right, its my birthday, duh " Harry said slapping himself on the forehead.
Looking at Lupin he still look weak from the last full moon, his clothes were still rather shabby, but looked slightly newer. Mr. Weasley still looked the same as always, hair still very red but very little. Lee Jordon the Weasley twin's friend with dreadlocks, Quidditch commentary likes to joke around a lot, Hagrid still looked the same as ever.
"Why are you all here?" Harry asked.
"So you can have a proper birthday party, " Ginny said "For once in your life "
"Thanks a lot but I don't deserve all this " Harry said
"Oh yes you do and don't try to get out of it " Hermione said "Now get your butt over here and open your birthday presents from all of us "
Hermione walked over and grabbed Harry's hand and dragged him over there, and pushed him into a chair and handed him a present. It was from Ginny. Tearing open the paper, it was a tiny golden snitch on a key ring that really flew, from Ron and eagle feathered quill and ink that changed to the Gryffindor colours (scarlet and gold) from Fred and George a bag full of jokes and tricks, from Mr. and Mrs. Weasley a homemade sweater and some treacle fudge, from Lee Jordon a huge fake spider that really moved (can't wait to get Ron with it), from Hagrid some rock cake (which he would soften by the fire), from Hermione a set of Defense Against the Dark Arts books, from Lupin a thin box, inside were two wands.
"Why are you giving these to me I already have one " Harry said
"They were your mother's and father's " Lupin said
"But how did you--- " Harry started to say.
"My little secret " he replied.
Shrugging he went on to Percy's gift it was just a card saying:
To Harry, My very deepest apologies I am sorry that I was against you in any way and for what I said in the Daily Prophet because the Minister was a lot more convincing than you were at the time until Fudge saw that battle between Dumbledore and You-Know-Who, again I am truly sorry.
Sincerely, Percy Weasley
He couldn't believe at what it said he looked up at Percy and said:
"Yes I forgive you "
Percy looked relieve and padded Harry on the back.
"Now this last gift is from all of us and a few others and it's a big one " Mr. Weasley said.
From around the corner came a huge box pushed by Fred and George and came to a halt in front of Harry. By this time Harry was thouroly curious as to what it could possibly be.
Harry began to open it when a man jumped out. It certainly scared Harry. But when he looked up into the man's face, he couldn't believe his eyes, he knew that face so well, and it was none other than....
