I do not own these characters, though I wish I could. JKR is a genius.

Chapter 1

It was like any summer at Number Four Privet Dr. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon were watching TV while Dudley was out terrorizing local kids. Harry was in his room trying to avoid them all. He is still not sure if he wants to be around people. His distance did not come unnoticed. A couple of days after he came back Uncle Vernon asked him "What's the matter with you boy?" Harry just shrugged and tried to finish the rest of his diner, so he could get out of there. Harry still can't believe Sirius is dead. He is getting a little better though.

The Daily Prophet is still telling people to be on alert. There have been a few disappearances but no deaths, yet. Harry's card from Ron for his birthday was ok. He got some chocolate frogs and a bag of jokes, from the twins but Harry could see that they were not trying to mention Sirius. Hermione's card was awesome. She wrote about her summer so far with her parents.

Harry is still waiting for the owl with is O.W.L. results. It should be coming soon. Out his window came an owl. It fluttered in and landed on Harry's bed with its leg out. Harry took the letter, which was rather thick, from the owl. The owl went to Hedwig's cage and drank some water while Harry opened his letter.

Dear Mr. Potter,

In closed are your O.W.L. results. Remember these affect your future outside of Hogwarts. Divination: P; Charms: E; DADA:O; Potions: O; History of Magic: A; Care of Magical Creatures: E; and Herbology: E . These grades will show you where you will go for N.E.W.T.'s so plan accordingly.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress.

"Wow I did better than I thought." Harry said to himself. "Well I can dump Divination, History of Magic, Care of Magical Creatures, and Haebology." Harry thought to himself. The owl finally ready to leave and Harry sent it off. "Boy! Get down here!" demanded Uncle Vernon. So Harry got up off of his bed and went down to see what has his Uncle all in a twit. When Harry came down the stairs he saw why his Uncle was upset. Just inside the door way was Mr. Weasley, Tonks, Madeye Moody, and Lupin. "Harry how are you?" asked Mr. Weasley. "Fine." said Harry. "Well Dumbledore asked us to come get you so you can spend your last two weeks with us." stated Moody.

Chapter Two

So Harry and Tonks went to pack up Harry's things. When he came back down with is trunk Dudley came home. "So I guess I will see you when the school year is over" said Harry. So Harry and the guard went out and got into the ministry car. Mr. Weasley drove while Harry sat in the back with Lupin, Moody, and Tonks. "So Harry there has been some changes this year" said Moody. "What kind of changes?" asked Harry. "Well, you won't be ridding the Hogwarts Express this year" said Lupin. "What?" "Well Dumbledore thought it would be safer for you and the other students, if you weren't on the train" said Tonks. "So how do I get to Hogwarts then?" asked Harry. "Well you options are 1. you go to Kingscross and get on to Platform 9 ¾ and use a portkey to get to Hogwarts, 2. you use the Ministry Apparition room, 3. you fly" said Mr. Weasley. "I choose the second one" said Harry. "The other change is that you will no longer be sleeping in Gryffindor Tower" stated Moody. "Then where will I sleep?" "You will be sleeping in the Headmasters Rooms" said Lupin. "But don't worry you will still be part of Gryffindor" said Tonks. "Ok, so how does this Apparition room work?" asked Harry. "Well kids and adults that don't want to appropriate can use this room. You simply think where you want to go and it will take you there" said Mr. Weasley. They pulled up to the Ministry and got out. Then with Harry in the middle, Moody at his side, Lupin at the other side, Mr. Weasley up front, and Tonks in the back they walked in. "Hi Weasley" said and employee. "Hey Roper" Mr. Weasley said back. They walked towards the apparition room which was right next to the elevator. Harry, Lupin, Moody, Mr. Weasley, and Tonks entered the room. "Now Harry, we can't apparate at Hogwarts so think of outside the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade" said Lupin. So all four of them thought of where they are going and Mr. Weasley pressed the button, with a flash they were in Hogsmeade.
