Chapter 4: Fun, Talents, Learning and Surprises
Ever since his birthday, Harry has always had fun. He got to play with Lightning and Ruby which made everything just perfect.
He still had lessons with Petunia but it seems that everyday it was getting easier. School was starting soon and Petunia had enrolled him in preschool so he could make some new friends.
Hopefully, both Ruby and himself could be in the class.
Today Petunia had scheduled a music lesson for Harry at the local music store. Lessons were only $5 dollars for every half hour but that is all they had time for before they had to be dance class.
Petunia grabbed Harry and placed him in his car-seat before driving to 454 Saracrea Lane.
The building was a two stories high covered in bricks and had music notes sprayed pointed onto the sign. The front window had a flyer that said "Music Lesson available," it also had different instruments to show what was sold in the store.
They got out of the car and walked in. Once they got to the front desk, Petunia said, " We are here for a music lesson for Harry Potter." "Ok, got to the second door to the right and the instructor will be there waiting there for you." "Thank you."
They walked down the dimly lit hallway that had pictures hanging from the walls. These were pictures of famous singer and artists. One that most people would people know were The Beetles.
They finally saw the door that was labeled with a letter two on it. They walked in and was greeted by a middle aged man with brown hair and blue eyes, wearing a polo shirt and khaki pants.
"Hello, I am Chris and I will be your instructor for the next half hour," said the man standing in front of them. "Well hello Chris, I am Petunia and this is my nephew Harry." "Well it is nice to meet you. What kind of instrument did you want to learn, young man."
Harry looked around and noticed that he owned and knew how to play almost all the ones that were in the room. "I am not sure, sir. I can play pretty much all of them in the room but that was by a quick glance so it is easy that I might have missed something."
Intrigued by that comment, Chris pulled down the violin and asked him to play a song. "What song what you like to hear." "Can you copy this song," as he placed the C.D into the player and pressed play. The song was played and then Harry placed the bow on the string and played the song as through it was played on repeat.
Wide eyed and jaw dropped, you could probably assume that Chris was shocked. And if you did then you would be correct.
Chris was amazed at how much musical talent this kid showed, he could be considered a musical prodigy at the age of two with an ability like this. For the boy played each song with perfection, but not just that he played with a passion that made each note so beautifully that it made you want to listen for hours.
" Amazing," all Chris could mumble out as Harry was finishing the last piece that he would do today," Well there is not much I can teach you instrument wise, but I can teach you how to read, write, and sing music like it ain't nobody's business."
"Ok, that sounds like a plan to me," replied the small boy with silky hair that made his green eyes shimmer in the light. So they read, and sang, and wrote for that whole twenty minutes they had left.
"Thank you," was the last Chris heard as the musical child walked out of the room with more talent and knowledge then when he had walked in. Chris was proud that he would be able to say that he had helped that child that was eager to learn anything and everything.

The next thing on Harry's agenda for the day was to got to the dance academy, because Harry needed a sport or activity to do and sports in general was to hard for a kid his age so petunia had decided that dance would work.
When they got to the academy the first thing they did was go to the waiting section where all the other little kids were at the time. Harry was glad that he wasn't the only boy here, because that would be embarrassing. There was three girls, and two other boys making a total of six kids.
There was a girl who looked familiar to Harry but he couldn't tell from behind,yet when she turned around he could tell exactly who it was.
"Ruby!" She saw him and screamed, "Harry!" They were both quite appalled that the other was here. The teacher came out and introduced as Ms. Dara DeAngelo, but you can call me Dede.
Now I want all of you to partner up before we go in. All the other kids looked confused, but Ruby and Harry just walked in and sat down together. Once the others picked, Dede said," These are going to be you partners for the remain of you time here at the academy, so let's begin.
The first thing that they were instructed to do was stretch. Then the learned some basic of dance and played a game before class ended.
"Harry come meet my family," said Ruby. "Ok" "Mum, Dad, Krystal, this is Harry Potter, my bestfriend. Harry, this is my older sister Krystal, my mum, and my dad."
"Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Evons, and hello Krystal. It is a pleasure to meet the family of Ruby."
Mrs. Evons," No, the pleasure is ours dearling, to finally have the chance to meet our little Ruby's friend."
"Harry come here we have places we need to be," Petunia said from the door.
"Please excuse me, it seems as though my aunt has plans. Good evening, and good-bye." Harry had replied as he made it to his aunt as they made it out the door.
"Auntie where are we going now." "Well, now we have to go to the playhouse, where they teach young minds the art of theatre." "Ok."
The got into the little blue car that they bought after the terrible accident. They drove in silence for the next twenty minutes, until they found themselves parked outside the building labeled,"London's Playhouse. Teaching children since 1865 and Performing since 1881."
"Well, lets go in already," was all that was said as they made their way inside the building. It was amazing, the building looked exactly ho you would expect a theatre, balconies, wooden stairs, velvet red ropes, little food stands, and a huge stage with lights.
"Welcome to the playhouse, all children that are here to learn and perform will be in the second room on the floor above us. Have fun and break a leg," the nice lady said as they walked in.
They made their way to the door that all the other kids were at this point in time. Harry was shocked to see all the children that were currently in the room. Most of the appeardw to be older, but there was a handful of children that were his age as well.
Harry sat down and waited, all the adults were elsewhere because they weren't allowed to enter. The next thing Harry knew they there was a girl sitting next to him.
"Hello, I'm Sara. What's your name?" "I'm Harry, nice to meet you." "I am nervous about acting, I'll probably be no good and I don't know anyone else here."
"Well, you know me and I'll be you friend and I am nervous as well, so everything will be fine." At that exact moment the teacher walked into the room.
"You are here to learn how to act and perform. Now I need all the older kids to partner up with the younger ones and once you do that I need you to walk onto the stage and sit with you partners.
People were running around, picking partners and moving to he stage, when Harry felt someone tap his shoulder. "Hi, I am Devin and I need a partner, would you be mine." She must have been ten, but she was so nice so he just had tonbe polite and say,"Yes."
They walked up to the stage and they sat down next to Sara and her partner Alex.
"Ok, now that you guys and girls are all paired up, I can introduce myself. I am Mr. Trizbeack and I will be you teacher for the remaining of your time here. So first of all we need to know are partner. So talk people."
The room started to get quite loud with everyone talking at once. But Devin and Harry did get a chance to converse but time with up. Harry learned some interesting facts out about Devin.
She had been in many plays but have never acting took classes, they were needed so she didn't get big roles, and she was just about to start school so she thought it would be a good thing to do. She was also pretty good at singing which was a huge plus side.
"So first thing we are going to do is learn how to act so the best way to do that is to actually act. So I need you and you partner to pair up with three other groups, then come up here and pick up your script. Then I want to to read it and add some personality to the character you picked. When it is your turn, embrace it and if you have to improve are add to if you forget your lines. Let the fun begin.
Devin, Harry, Sara, Alex, Gabe, Ava, Nick, and Jessica were a group. They introduced themselves and went to Mr. or homework Trizbeack to get their script.
"Ok so ours is about a bunch of kids who are lost in the woods when they are on a field trip. So we need a teacher, and students. Who wants to be who."
In the end they agreed that Nick and Jessica would be the teachers and the rest of them would be students. Then they added some spunk to their characters. Devin would be the rich white girl that hates everything outdoors and would be complaining the whole time. Alex would be the nature guy that was kind and helpful. Sara and Ava would act like twins, but Ava is more girly and Sara is not. Gabe would act like the bad boy and doesn't care what happens. Harry would be the guy who takes control and act like a boy scout. Nick would be laid back, while jessica would be strict.
When it was their turn to people Harry was the only one in his group that had memorized his lines. But with all the improvising they did, they rest of the kids were laughing so hard that you could see the tears rolling down some of their faces.
Once they were finished, class was about to end, so Mr. Trizbeack stood up and said, "For homework, everyone needs to grab a package at the door and memorize to the best of your ability the lines that are highlight. Good evening and good- bye."
Harry grabbed his packed as he was walking out the door then he heard someone call his name. He turned around and saw that it was Sara.
"Hey Harry wait up. I wanted to thank you for earlier, and to say that I had fun working with you. I was wondering if you could help me learn my lines, I had noticed that you had no problem with yours, and I could never do that well by myself."
"Sure, that would be cool, but you would have to check with your parents and my Aunt to make sure that it would work out, okay?"
"Okay, see you later Harry!"
Harry then talked with some of the other kids that were still there, once he was down he started to walk towards his aunt. He was spotted yet again by someone who needed to talk to him. He turned around a say a guy that seemed to be in his late twenties.
"Hello young man, I am Mr. Valso and I was wondering if you have experience performing before?" "No, sir today was the first time I have ever acted or have been on a stage."
"Wow, that is amazing, your performance was quite an eye pleaser, it seemed as though you have down this for awhile now. I must say you do have a talent for this type of career. I came here today looking for a child that seemed to do well on a styage to satr in a new television show that I was starting and I think I found exactly what I need. I am willing to put you on trail to see if you like it or not, if your parent or guardian agrees first."
It was at that exact moment that Petunia came over and asked Mr. Valso what he needed, and he told her the same thing he had just explained to Harry just moments ago.
Petunia said that it would be fine, if it didn't interfere with his schooling, in which Mr. Valso replied that all casting would take place after school so there was nothing to worry about.
He told them that a car would pick them up the days Harry would be needed to act. After he said that he said his goodbyes and made his way to the exit.
"Well that was a suprises now wasn't it."" Yes it was Auntie. " Well don't just stand there, we have school shoppin to do."

The shopping trip didn't take as long as Harry thought it would, which was quite a relief. They had managed to get everything needed in only half and hour, which ranged from school clothes to lunches to school supplies.
When they got home Harry was allowed to watch the telly before he had to go to bed. He was in the middle of a Loony Tunes episode when Aunties yelled for him to go get ready for bed.
See, Harry and Ruby were able to enroll into preschool a year early because they had meet all the requirements to do so. So, they were able to go to preschool as two year olds instead of three year olds which was a good thing because it means they would have more time if they needed to be held back for any reason.
Harry got into bed wearing green pjs hoping that he would be in the same class as Ruby.
The next morning Harry was woken up at presisely at six in the morning in order to make she he would be dressed and ready with food in his belly before they had to go and pick up Ruby, so they could walk to school together.
Harry was dressed in a light blue polo shirt and a pair of navy blue pants. He had his Superman backpack on his back filled with a box of art supplies, a folder, and his lunch in a paper bag.
Harry and Petunia walked down to Ruby's house to pick her and her sister up so they could go to school.
They walked upto the front porch and knocked on the door. opened the door and said," Good morning Harry,let me go and get the girls so you guys can go to school already."
"Girls, Harry is here to walk to school with you," she yelled from the foot of the stairs. The next thing you could hear was the sounds of feet ponding on the stairs as two young girls run down the stairs screaming, " Coming Mum!"
"So, before you leave I need pictures in order to capture the moment of mmy two pretty girls and their best friend going off to school for the first time," Mrs. Evons said. She took a couple of picture before Petunia and the kids started on the walk to Surrey Academy of Learning, a pre-k (nursery) to year six school.
The walk only lasted twenty minutes because the school was roughly 4 blocks away from the going south.
When they arrived Krystal walked over to some of the other girls that she knew was in her class, being new to the area she introduced herself and they became fast friends.
Harry and Ruby went to the playground to wait for the nursery teachers to call the names of the kids in their class out. "Evons, Ruby please go to the teacher in red, Miss. Stacy,"called out from one of the teachers by the door. "Bye Harry." "Bye Ruby."
Harry had to wait a while for his name to be called but whe it was he was not dissappointed. He was in ruby's class which made everything so much better.
Once all the names were called. Miss. Stacy and here class walked to the classroom, number three. The students all picked out their sits as the class started for the day.

Severus was sitting in his office, getting ready for another year with all the bratty, spoiled, children.
He casted the time spell, to see that the train would be arriving in ten minutes.
So, he got up and glided to the great hall. He sat down and waited for the arrival of the student.
The second through seven year student years came in and went to their table.
In no more than a couple of minutes the entire hall was loud, with everyone talking about how their break was and what they had done.
