Chapter 17

Everyone gathered the pens and paper and went into the living room where they could right the letters. Alex and his parents wrote a new letter to Mrs. Weasley. When the Xanatos' were done writing the letter they gave it to Harry, who had written his own letter, sent Hedwig off with both letters.

"Ok, Alex, what would you like to do?" Harry asked Alex with a small smile.

"Story." said Alex

"What would you like in this story?" asked Harry, he hoped that it would be something that he knew about because he did not know the normal story you told kids.

"Hogwarts," said Alex, wanting to know more about Harry's school.

"Ok," said a very thankful Harry that Alex wanted a story about something that he knew about.

Harry told Alex about his second year at Hogwarts but with certain bits missing as it wasn't suitable for someone that was Alex's age. Then without warning, an owl flew in though an open window and dropped a letter in Mr. Xanatos' hand and flew out of the window again, supposedly going somewhere to rest and wait for its reply.

Dear Mr. Xanatos,

I have been told that Harry Potter is living with you for the summer. I am writing you because I am worried about him. Please tell me if you have reason to think that you're family or Harry is in danger, and I will deal with the problem.

Headmaster of Hogwarts

Albus Dumbledore

"David, what is it?" asked Mrs. Xanatos, wondering if this had something to do with his plan from last night.

"Nothing," said Mr. Xanatos while putting the letter in a draw in his desk and locking it, then he put the key into his pocket.

"Story," said Alex, wanting to hear another story.

"Ok, Alex, what would you like in the story this time?" asked Harry, hoping again that it would be something he knew about.

Alex had to think for a few moments before answering.

"Avalon," said Alex.

"I know some legends about Avalon," said Harry, with a confused look.

"I have never been there," said Mr. Xanatos with a shake of his head.

"Mother never talked about Avalon," said Mrs. Xanatos with a sigh.

"Davey, would you like me to tell the story?" asked Puck.

"Yes please," said Mr. Xanatos.

So Puck told a story about Avalon, and by the time Puck was done, it was time for lunch. Alex had his magic lessons and played some more. Puck and the Xanatos talked, and Harry talked to Alex. This went on until dinner time, and then they all ate. The Xanatos and Puck went into the living room and Harry went into his room, got his school books, and went to the tower.
