It was to be another horrible day at number 4, Privet Drive. Ms. Figg was out of the area on Order missions and Ron was in Africa with his family. Hermione was also away. She was going to a muggle summer school, Why was beyond Harry. So, it was another hot day and Harry had nothing to do. He had finished all his summer homework, and was waiting for someone to come tell him he could go to the headquarters for the Order. Harry was not completely sure if he wanted to go to the Order though, it might become a more constant reminder of what had happened at the end of last term.
"Harry Potter! There is that dumpy woman again walking towards our house! What is she doing here?" bellowed Mr. Dursley, Harry's Uncle.
Harry had no idea why Mrs. Weasly would be here. The first thought that came to his mind was something had happened to Ron. He didn't think he could take another loss right now, but braced himself for the worst. The last thing Harry expected was Mrs. Weasly coming to tell him who the new Defense against the Dark Arts teacher would be, Charlie. He was coming back from Romania to help Dumbledor out. Charlie wanted Harry to go stay with him for a bit so Harry could help with a lesson plan.
Harry left the Dursley's and went with Mrs. Weasly to Charlie's flat. Harry worked with him everyday, learning new magic and teaching some to Charlie. After about 3 weeks, Ron, Fred, George and Ginny, come to stay with Harry at Charlie's flat.
Too soon for Harry's likings, it was time to go back to Hogwarts. He didn't really want to leave; he was having too much fun. Once on platform 9 ¾ Harry and the others all got a compartment together. Ron and Hermione had to go to the front for a bit because of their prefect duties. The train ride to the school was fun enough; Fred and George were going up to the school to visit for a bit before going back to work. On the way to Hogwarts, Ron was telling the others about Africa while Hermione was studying.
Finally, they got to Hogwarts. The gang all went up to the Great Hall and sat at the Gryffindor table. Just as they sat down, Professor McGonagall walked in with the first years. She had the sorting hat and stool with her as well. She set the hat on the stool and stood back as the rip near the brim opened up like a mouth and began its song;
When I was first thought up,
Two wizards and a pretty witch,
Thought it would be wise
To go through time,
Ahead, to the future,
Believing they would die,
I do believe the time is almost here
For the too times to meet.
But now, this wont concern most of ye
Only a few from Godric's house,
Let me tell you bout you all.
You lot will come up here
And put me on your head
I will look inside your mind
And find out were you ought to be.
You might be put in Slytherin, Huffulpuff
Ravenclaw or Gryffindo.
I will tell you,
Were you should be!
The hat fell silent again. Harry looked at Ron and Hermione and knew they where thinking the same thing; who was going to care about the two times meeting? And who are the three that will come through?
