Hi again! Sorry this chapter is kind of short, they'll get longer in the future! Oh, and this isn't a reading the books story, it's like what would they do with the knowledge of the books to change the future.
Chapter Two
"Mr. and Mrs. Dursley," I read to myself. "of number four, Privet Drive, were proud to say that they were perfectly normal, thank you very much. They were the last people you'd expect to be involved in anything mysterious, because they just didn't hold with such nonsense." I decided then and there that I didn't like these people. They sounded extremely stuck up.
"Angelina, do you know these people?"
"Never heard of them. I really don't see what they have to do with the story. They sound like snobby muggles to me."
"Same here," I replied and we continued reading.
I read on about how perfectly normal and snobby they were, yadda, yadda, yadda. Then… The Potters were their secret? Well, they were obviously magical; at least that's what she got out of Angelina. But that's no reason to completely ignore them! I hate these people more and more by the second.
There were the obvious signs of magic all around Mr. Dursley. Then there was this cat. It seemed so familiar…
"Hey, Angelina?"
"Hmm?"
"Does this cat seem, um, familiar to you?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem familiar, doesn't it?"
"Yeah. Wait, sitting stiffly, giving people stern looks! Ange! Does that remind you of anyone we know?"
"You don't think…" Angelina seemed skeptical.
"McGonagall!" We almost yelled.
That's so weird. I mean, I know she's a cat Animungus, but the only time students really see here like that is the first lesson of first year.
I read on about Harry's life, him getting his Hogwarts letters, going out to the old shack, and meeting Hagrid. I always did like him. Then stupid Dudley ate his cake. Hagrid took Harry to Diagon Alley to get his supplies for school, which would be starting soon. Then he was dropped off at King's Cross, where he met…
"The Weasleys!" Angelina exclaimed. He had seen a large group of red-heads, who had been acting like wizards. That could only mean one thing. So four of them? There was the twins and Percy, which makes three. I'm pretty sure they mentioned their little brother Ron was starting next year. And there was their little sister, who was younger…
And Lee had a box with a hairy thing. Great. Oh? It's a tarantula? Even better!
"Remind me to stay away from Lee on the train next year," I told Angelina. If there's one thing I hate, its spiders. Especially giant, furry ones. That's just not right.
We read on and on about Quidditch, trolls, evil Snape, 3-headed dogs, lessons, friends, mirrors, and finally, evil Quirral. I can't believe he's evil! I think he's the muggle studies professor. Well, I know who he is, the new defense teacher next year. But he's not a well know death eater. He actually seems very innocent. Which I'm sure was the point.
We didn't finish the books until our alarm clocks went off the next morning.
"You have GOT to be kidding me! I don't wanna go to lessons now! I wanna sleeeeeppppp!" Angelina yelled.
"Urg. I don't want to go either. Not like we have a choice though." We got ready quickly and went down to the common room, where George, Fred and Lee were waiting for us.
"Sleep well?" asked Fred in an innocent voice.
Angelina glared at him.
"What? I just thought you looked tired! Did you even sleep at all?"
"No."
"Well why not?" asked George.
"That's classified information," I couldn't tell them. Only Angelina and I could know.
"Were you out on a secret mission?"
"No."
"Were you in spy training?"
"No."
"Were you playing Quidditch without us?"
"Can we just go to breakfast already?"
"Fine."
Review Please! :)
