Chapter Two: Caught in the Crosshairs

Private Drive was quiet that morning as always. It was 10 in the morning on a Sunday when the peaceful silence was interrupted.

Petunia Dursley heard a knock at their front door, thinking it was a salesman she made her husband answer it. Vernon Dursley hated salesmen and loved to yell at them and tell them the thing they are selling is a waste of Vernon's time.

When Vernon opened the door a gigantic man was standing their looking oh-so cheery. " Hello, Mr. Dursley may I come inside?" The man with a pink umbrella asked.

Before Vernon or Petunia could answer the man that was standing on their porch came into their lovely home. Once he sat on the couch he started to speak once more. " Mrs. Dursley I have been sent to retrieve Harry Potter, your nephew. You will not see him till the holidays. He has been accepted into Hogwarts Scool of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

Petunia gasps, sputters, and shrieks in outrage at the man," Get out of my HOME! The boy does not have the weird freakiness and he can kiss this our hospitality goodbye if he thinks we will put up with this! He will not go to that freak school or meet other freaks! He will recover from this cursed disease put on him! Boy, get in your room now!"

Vernon hears his wife's speech and flies downstairs. It was really a sight to see and Harry did not know that pigs could fly. Harry thinks to himself," I guess anythings possible with magic."

Vernon grabbed whatever was closest to him, a coathanger in this case, and tries to use it as a shield. Needless to say, it did not work very well. Vernon's back is to the door and he has one foot in front of his wife and son. The man stands at the other end of the hallway pointing his pink polka dot umbrella at Vernon.

Unfortunately, Harry was trying to get to his cupboard but was caught in the crosshairs of the fighting adults. Everybody was shouting at Harry and he did the only thing he could, which shocked Vernon Dursley. Vernon could not believe to freak just sat down and started crying! Vernon felt he had taught the freak to have a backbone, apparently Vernon's "Lessons" were useless at the moment.

The tall man took his opportunity when Vernon was distracted and he picked Harry up bridal-style. The man believed he could get Harry things later. Before Vernon, Petunia, or the young pig could say a word the man left with Harry in his arms.
