The next day while they had breakfast the news paper came and people sat there in shock. Especially the other snakes.
Harry Potter, older brother of the boy-who-lived the new Pudlemere United seeker!
It appears that the new seeker was kept a secret to surprise everyone. Who would have thought a fifth year student at Hogwarts would be a professional quidditch player? "He's the best one yet. I'm excited for the rest of the season and looking forward to seeing if we can make it to the Quidditch World Cup for the first time in ten years. But judging by the skills Harry already has I wouldn't be surprised if we did and won. I heard his dad was a great seeker and chaser at school so that's probably why he can do it good." captain of the Puddlemere United Tom says. This will be an exciting season and future until Harry Potter retires. Which hopefully won't be for a while.
While they all read the paper they were all speechless. Snape was proud of his snake and John was shocked but also proud of his older brother. Even though the way he was he still cared for Harry. Draco, Aden, Theo, Blaise, Astoria and Daphne were proud of their friend and boyfriend.
"Look at everyone's face." Draco said trying not to laugh but failing.
"I know look at them all!" Blaise said laughing.
"Why didn't you tell us Harry? Your fellow Slytherins and Slytherin quidditch players!" Tracey said.
"To surprise you all. If it helps I haven't told my parents or uncles either. I thought about telling Sirius and Remus but Sirius would have exposed it by next week. As for my parents they deserve it after ignoring me all the time. And it will probably take them a while to notice it." he said.
Back at Grimauld Place,
Sirius, Remus, James and Lily were at Grimauld Place having breakfast. James and Lily went for breakfast to get away from Godric Hollow.
One other thing was there but they didn't see it even though three of them could recognize it anywhere. That thing is a fat grey rat, Wormtail.
While Sirius took a sip of his tea and looked at the paper his tea went flying out of his mouth and caught Remus' attention.
"What is it Padfoot?" Remus asked.
James and Lily were in a different room right now. Peter was underneath the table and listening.
"Look at the paper." he said handing it to him.
When he read it out loud and sat there in shock.

While they continued to read the paper he was shocked.
"Why didn't he tell us?" Remus said.
"I don't know, but I'd love to know." Sirius said.
'Prongslet is a professional quidditch player? He is good at it like James.' Wormtail thought.
Then Hedwig appeared with a letter with two names on it.
Dear uncle Moony and uncle Padfoot, I kept this quiet as a surprise for only you two. After ignoring me for twelve years mum and dad will have to figure it out themselves. Keep it quiet from them please I want them to figure it out themselves or actually read all the paper. If you want the schedule I'll give you a copy and tickets to any game you want. Daphne, Astoria, Draco, Aden, Theo and Blaise were at the first game yesterday and don't worry I'm still Slytherin's seeker uncle Padfoot. I might let John and his friends go to games because their John's friends and my little brother. Until this morning's paper nobody but my friends and the professors knew. Professor Snape is actually really proud of his favorite and top student. He does have a heart uncle Padfoot. Well that's about it, Harry
They sat there quietly.
"Well, I don't know about you Moony but I'm asking for a schedule and tickets to games to see what my godson has in him as a professional." Sirius said.
"I may not like it as much as you and Prongs if he knew and Harry let him go but I'll always be up for watching my cub play a game! He's a mini James with quidditch and a mini Lily with everything else. Especially his temper!" Remus said.
They both shivered after hearing that.
So Sirius wrote back and then handed it to Hedwig.
Back at school,
They were at a game now and was Slytherin vs Ravenclaw this time.
"And Flint blocks the quarful again while Harry looks around for the snitch. It must be hard for him to play two games in two days." Lee said.
"Come on Harry!" Daphne said smiling.
"Alright, let's see if we can find it. It's been two hours and it still hasn't come." Harry said.
Then he saw it. So he sped up and reached for it.
"It looks like Harry finally found sight of the snitch! Will Slytherin win again even though Harry was at a game yesterday or will Cho catch it and Ravenclaw win and be the first team to beat Slytherin in twelve years?" Lee said.
Harry sped up and then caught it.
"Slytherin wins!" he said.
While they all cheered Harry sighed in relief that the game was finished. He was still a little tired from yesterday's game.
After the game it was dinner time. While they ate Harry got a letter from Sirius.
Dear Harry, Me and Remus would love a copy of the schedule for games! I'm excited to see games with you in them now. Thanks for the offer and promise not to tell your parents about this. Sirius
"Well, Sirius is excited. No surprise there though." Harry said smiling.
After dinner Harry made a copy of his schedule and sent it to Sirius. Then he and Daphne got ready for their night rounds. When they were done Harry said goodnight to her and then headed to bed.
When he got there he passed out without even getting changed.
