Chapter 4

For Harry this summer actually seemed to be going better than the others. When Harry came back to Private Drive he decided to have a little fun with the Dursley's.

"Alright boy, it's time for dinner so get in there and start cooking."

"Ok Uncle Vernon, but before I do that I think that you should know that I found out I have a godfather."

"Don't be stupid, you don't have a godfather."

"Yes I do, his name is Sirius Black. I think that you've seen him on the news. I mean he is a convicted murderer," Harry of course left out the part that his name has been cleared, "and if you do anything to me then that might make him angry."

"You can't scare me," Vernon said as the vein on his forehead started to become very visible.

"Well I don't think that I'm trying to scare you," Harry said trying to hold back his laugh, "I just thought you should know." And with that he left for the kitchen without another word.

After another long day of weeding the garden and cleaning the Dursley's house Harry was finally allowed to go back up to his room. When he came into the room he saw that he had a letter. When he picked it up Harry saw that it was from Remus and Sirius.

Hello Harry,

How are things going? I hope they are going well. Your letters have seemed a little strange; I mean it just really didn't sound like you.

Well yeah they sound weird; Harry thought to him, Uncle Vernon has been telling me what to write,

Anyway me and Moony (Sirius, it should be Moony and I,) Moony go away I'm trying to write a letter to Harry (well, maybe I want to talk to Harry too. Hello Harry,) No, write your own letter. This one is mine. As I was saying before I was RUDELY interrupted (hey!) we will be there at nine o'clock tomorrow. Now if you wanted to have some fun with Vernon before you leave. Don't tell them that we are coming and then we can just pop in there and scare the living day lights out of them (Sirius that is not nice. Harry, I think you should tell them that we are picking you up.) Moony, what did I say about getting you own letter. Quit reading over my shoulder! (Fine have it your way crybaby,) We will see you tomorrow.

Love,

Sirius (and Remus)

Moony, go away!

Only those two would be having an argument in a letter. Harry thought as he started to laugh, but then he saw that he had a visitor. Errol, the Weasley's owl, had flown though Harry's open window and dropped a letter and what looked like a small package. After giving him a couple of owl treats Harry went back to the letter that Ron had sent him.

Dear Harry,

How are you doing? I hope everything is going alright with those Muggles. They are feeding you right. You looked so skinny after we picked you up last year. Anyway, now it it's time for some good news. Remember last Christmas when told didn't get you anything, but I said that I was saving up to buy you something great. Well, I finally got enough money and I know I should wait until you birthday, but I just can't anymore. I hope you like it.

See you soon! I love you!

Ron

Harry picked up the tiny package, which was wrapped in a piece of the Daily Prophet, and carefully opened it. What he saw inside was a necklace. It was a little gold lion charm on a gold chain.

Oh Ron, Harry thought to himself, He shouldn't have spent so much on me, but it is very pretty.

Setting it and the two letters down on his nightstand, Harry picked up his glass that he keeps by his bed and went to the kitchen to some water.

Dudley was bored, so he decided that he would go to his room and see if there was anything in his room that he could smash apart. When he walked past his second room he saw a little glint of light coming from Harry's night stand. Even though Dudley was terrified of what might be in Harry's room, he just had to see what was making that light. He slowly made his way into the room and saw that is a necklace, what kind of a freak would have a necklace? Dudley asked himself, but then he saw the letter that Ron had wrote and then Dudley knew exactly what kind of a person. I knew there was something weird about that freak.

Dudley shoved the Necklace into his pocket and went downstairs to find Harry.

Harry was ready to head up the stairs, but then Dudley came down and with out warning he punched Harry in the nose.

"Hey, what was that for?"

Taking the jewelry out of his pocket he dangled it in front of Harry's face he said with a very disgusted tone, "I think you know why you fucking queer," The Dudley took in a deep breath and then at the top of his lungs screamed, " Daddy, Come here Harry has done something."

As soon as he heard that Vernon Dursley got up from his chair and left the living room in search of his screaming son, "What have you done now Boy?" he yelled looking at Harry.

"I haven't done anything," Harry said defiantly.

"Oh yes he has," Dudley said shaking his head, "Harry is a queer I found this," showing his father the necklace, "and this," he said as he threw the letter at his dad.

Vernon looked at Harry and then he threw him against the wall, "We let you live here even though you go to that freak school," he yelled as he punched Harry, "but I will not tolerate this unnatural behavior," Then when Harry fell to the ground Vernon gave him one more kick in the stomach before turning to his son, "Dudley, hand me the jewelry," Then as he made his way to the kitchen he shouted at Harry, "I will not let you where jewelry like a women."

All Harry could hear was the sound of the dish disposal going off. He knew that he would never see Ron's gift again. Harry hurt every where and he could see out of his right eye, but he knew that he needed to get to his room or they would come and beat him up again.

As soon as Harry got inside of his room, he collapsed and that was where Remus and Sirius where going to find him the next day. Beaten, bruised, and possibly with a couple of broken ribs.

A/N: Poor Harry! Will Remus and Sirius be able to save him? ... well duh. Please review it would mean the world to me!
