Harry woke with a jolt as he looked around his quiet room that had a poster of the Chudley Cannons that Ron had gotten him for his birthday. Hedwig's cage was empty as he had let her out to go hunt. Harry sighed and looked at the time, It was only 4:45. He laid back on his bed and sighed thinking about the dream that turned south so quickly.

He was walking down a corridor in Hogwarts as he heard a girl call his name from behind him.

"Harry, wait for me" The girl yelled

He looked back to see a girl with fiery red hair running at him. It was Ginny Weasley, she ran into his arms and crushed her lips against his. She looked at him with a cheeky smirk and a glint in her chocolate eyes.

"Where did you think you were going without giving me a kiss first?" She stared into his eyes

"Uh, I was just going down to Hagrid's. Do you want to come?" He asked her avoiding her beautiful eyes as he did so.

"Yes I would love to come Harry why wouldn't I?" She looked at him smiling brightly as she slipped her hand into his and they began down the hallway.

That's when the dream started to change as he and Ginny walked down the hallway her hand slipped away from him as she screamed. Harry looked back with lightning-fast reflexes only to see Ginny's lifeless body fall to the floor in a flash of green light.

That's how Harry woke up. He would be going with the Weasley Family for the Quidditch World Cup in a few days. Harry heard a tapping noise at his window only to see three Owls and a bright orange bird sitting there looking at him, One was his own beautiful snowy owl, Hedwig, the one to her right was a small scoop owl that he recognized as the one Sirius had given Ron last year and the third was a brown owl that he hadn't seen before. Harry grabbed Hedwig's letter first and she looked at the others with a proud look. The letter was thick with red lettering.

Dear Harry,

How have you been since summer started? I heard you'll be going to the World Cup with the Weasleys. I hope to see you soon but I don't know the next time I won't be busy. Anyways I left you some pictures of your mum and dad. I hope you like them, I don't know when I will be able to send a response letter back to you but take care of yourself Harry.

Sincerely,

Remus

Harry gave Hedwig a treat and returned her to her cage as he grabbed the two letters from the small Owl. He grabbed the first one

Dear Harry,

How are you mate? Have the Muggles been treating you well? Dad said you get to come to the world cup with us this year! I can't believe dad managed to get tickets. I can't wait to see you mate and be ready to play some chess. I'm gonna crush you like every other time. See you in a few days Harry.

You best mate,

Ron

P.S my sister sent you a letter too, I don't have any clue why but you don't have to respond to it I just figured I'd let you know.

Harry blushed at the thought of Ginny until he remembered the second letter. He quickly opened it.

Dear Harry,

Hello, Harry I know I've never written to you before but I just wanted to see how you are doing? I also got you a present since I didn't send you anything for your birthday. I hope you like it. I found it when I was over by my friend Luna's house.

With Love,

Ginny

P.S I found the picture in an old box that mum had in the attic

Harry opened the small parcel that he didn't notice before now, It was a small necklace that was made out of silver that had two small lions over a locket that could be opened. It had a picture of his mum and dad smiling at him. He felt a tear form in his eye, he hadn't felt this happy from a gift in a long time. He smiled putting the locket around his neck. Harry knew he would have to thank Ginny for this wonderful gift. He moved on to the brightly colored bird, It held a small letter.

Hello Harry,

I heard about you going to the World cup from Mooney, I hope you have fun. I know that you love quidditch just like James did. I hope that you are having a good summer even if you have to stay with those god awful relatives of yours. Hopefully sometime soon we can live together and be happy as a family. If you ever need anything just send Hedwig.

Love,

Padfoot

Harry was happy to see that his Godfather still wanted him to stay with him someday; he hated his relatives but at least Uncle Vernon hadn't tried to hit him since he became a wizard. He watched as the brightly colored bird flew away, as he grabbed the last letter it was from Hogwarts.

Dear Mr. Potter

Number Four Privet Drive

This is a letter just to inform you of all the supplies you will need for your coming school year. We hope to see you on September First. The attached parchment has all you need, make sure to also pack a set of dress robes for this year.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Harry wondered why he needed to get dressed but he figured that he would be told on the first day. Now all he had to do was respond to the letters he had gotten. He hadn't failed to notice he had gotten nothing from Hermione yet, he figured she must have been busy. He began to write his responses with the moonlight shining into his window.
