Hogwarts the next day.
Danny is up bright and early. He is taking a walk around the Hogwarts ground. Suddenly, Hedwig flies over and lands on Danny's Arm. Danny says."Hello, Girl, what do you have for me?" Danny removes the letters and Gives Hedwig her favorite treat. Danny tells her to take a nice long rest.
He heads towards the great hall and sees Hermoine and Hands, Hermoine, her parent's letter. He then heads over to his table and Have breakfast. Draco suddenly says."So, any news Fenton? Why dont you show us how muggles write letters."
Danny pulls out a letter and says in a mocking tone."Dear Danny, if what you told us about the Malfoy kid is true. Then He seems like a total Prick." Danny switches to his normal voice and continues."Who is out of his mind if he thinks im going to read my private mail to him." Danny walks off and says."Later peacock." The great hall bursts into laughter, and Draco is once again left fuming.
Danny finds a nice, quiet place and begins reading.
Dear Danny.
How is school, son? We are glad to hear that you are alright. Everything here is going as usual. But it is less lively without you here. When you left for school us. The Weasleys and The Grangers went out for lunch. And we had a great time.
Of course, me and your father would love to tutor you in the summer. Im glad to read that your dreams are unchanged. And im sad to hear that the Hogwarts educational system has not changed in the last decade and a half.
We have decided to spend Christmas in England. So that you dont have to worry about flying and catching a train. But dont worry, there will be no Dursleys.
We hope to hear from you soon
Love
Mom and Dad.
Danny shudders and says internally. "Thank heaven for no Dursleys."
He then reads Jazz's Letter.
Dear Danny,
England sounds like a magical place. Everything is normal here. Could I ask you to take some pictures? You do have a camera with you.
I do miss you, little brother. I hope you take good care of yourself. Dont let that place do to you what it did to Uncle James and Aunt Lily.
Danny, could you say hi to Hermoine for me? We had a great time in the alley that day.
I hope to hear from you soon again.
Love
Jazz.
Danny thinks to himself. "Mabye I should suggest to both of them to start writing to each other."
Danny opens Sam and Tucker's letters. And they both are about the same. Danny thinks to himself. I can't wait to hang out with Sam and Tucker again.
Lastly, he reads Vlad's letter.
Dear Little Badger.
Im glad to read that everything is going as planned. If all of us we play our cards right. We won't have to worry about The public knowing about Harry Potter for the next three years.
As far as the Malfoy's, Go. I occasionally meet Malfoy's father. And let me tell you, Daniel. The father is so much worse. I have that Prick meet me in one of my other mansions.
Stay safe, Daniel.
Your uncle
Vlad.
Danny looks up and sees Hermoine walking towards him. Danny says."Jazz says hi." Hermoine remembers her time with Jazz in the alley while danny spends a few hours in the wand shop and asks him."Could you say hi back for me?" Danny replies."Why not write a letter to Her? Hedwig goes there anyway to deliver mine. It might be good for you both."
Hermoine replies."Do you think she would like to hear from me?" Danny replies."You dont know that until you try. Anyway, I have Hedwig out Monday again. Think that will give you enough time?" Hermoine says."I can do that. Thanks, Danny."
That Monday before class.
Danny and Hermoine send out the letters again only. Danny has only one this time, While Hermoine has two. And Hedwig flies off. Hermoine asks."Are you not writing to your friends this time?" And Danny replies."If not for Quidditch. I would have waited a few weeks before sending Hedwig out again. Amity Park is not as close as London."
Hermoine asks."How do you think she flies to your home?" Danny says."I Suspect. Scotland, Iceland, Greenland, Canada, and then the U.S. Luckily for me. Magical owls can fly farther and faster than regular owls." Suddenly, a voice says."That's an interesting theory, Mr Fenton."
Hermoine and Danny look up and see Dumbledore standing before them. They both say."Good morning, professor."
Dumbledore says."Good morning, children. I occasionally communicate with Magic schools overseas. I wondered at times how the Owls made the Journey. I must admit Mr. Fenton's idea has Merit. It makes me happy to see students from different houses be friendly with each other. Now, I do believe it is time for class."
Danny and Hermoine say."Good day, professor." Dumbledore replies. "Good day, children." Dumbledore muses to himself."Ah, To be young and have your whole life ahead of you. Now it's time for tea with Hagrid."
Dumbledore hums and walks towards Hagrid's cabin. The school week that follows is uneventful. Danny's late afternoons he spends with either Ron, Hermoine, or Neville. And Sometimes they all hang out. At Night, Danny trains his Ghost Powers. And to his great Joy found out he could fly and Turn invisible.
That Saturday Morning. Danny is having breakfast in the great hall when Hedwig flies towards him. She drops a Package. And Three letters. He sees that two are for Hermoine and gives her the letters.
Ron sees a broom-like package and bolts over as fast as he can. He says."Open it, Mate. I can't wait to see what kind of broom you got." Danny opens the wrapper and sees a brand new Nimbus 2000. Ron says."Wicked. Who is it from, mate?" Danny reads the card and knows it from his uncle but lies and says."My parents."
Snape is internally overjoyed. The best seeker on the best broom is the Slytherin way. Mcgonagall, on the other hand, is not having a good time. She feels she has to prepare for at least one more year of Snapes gloating.
Danny walks away, taking his Nimbus outside, saying."I have got to try it out." Draco, seeing his chance, Walks over to Ron and says."That broom is more than you can afford, Weaselby." Ron replies."Shut it, Malfoy." Draco replies."What are you going to make me, Weaselby?"
Ron angrily says."I said shut it, Malfoy." Draco says."Well, if you feel that strongly. Mabye you like to have a wizards duel." Ron says."Your on, who will be your second?" Malfoy thinks and says."Crabbe, but you must pick someone from Gryffindor." Ron says."I take Neville as my second." Draco says."Tonight in the trophy room." Ron says."I will be there."
That night
Draco is boasting about the trap he set for the Gryffindors. But Danny overhears him. Who heads to his room. Writes a quick note and transforms. Danny flies up and thinks I only have five minutes before the watch kicks me out of ghost mode . So I need to be back by then.
Danny flies straight into the trophy room. And Sees Ron, Neville, and his Suprise Hermoine waiting there. Danny makes the note visible, and Hermoine grabs it. Its contents say. "It's A trap, Burn the note." Hermoine shows the message to the others and Burns the note with Incendio. She says."I told you it was a trap. Now, let's get back to Gryffindor." Danny decides to follow them.
And after a minute or two. The trio and Danny. Head into a strange corridor. And they hear Filch coming. Hermoine sees a locked door and says."Alohomora." They hide in a room. The trio looks at the three-headed dog, who wakes up and rushes towards them. The trio makes a run for it. Meanwhile, The dog is kept in place by Danny. Who spins from the tail to the middle head and knocks out the dog with a single blow.
Danny knows he only has a minute left and heads back to his room. He transforms back with only five seconds to spare. And heads to the shower. Ten minutes later, danny walks out of the shower. And heads into his room. Just as he finishes changing, somebody knocks on the door.
He opens the door and sees Snape, who asks him to follow him. In the main room of the dungeons are Filch And McGonagall waiting. Snape asks."Mr. Fenton, do you know anything about students sneaking out? at night?" Danny replies."No, professor, I have no idea what you are talking about. But I assume that whoever they are. Got caught."
Snape says."We found nothing. However, the information, according to Mr. Filch, was Believable." Danny says."Mabye they changed their minds about sneaking out at the last minute. Or the information was false to begin with." McGonagall says."That seems to be the most logical explanation either way."
Danny asks."Professor, might I ask a question?" McGonagall says."Go ahead, Mr Fenton." Danny asks."Why im I being? questioned?" McGonagall says."According to our information. The Suspects were Mr. Wealsey and Mr. Longbottom." Snape asks."Did you hear anything, Fenton?"
Danny says."No, professor, I was busy with my New Broom." Snape says."yes, Fenton, we have Several witnesses in that regard. Present company included." McGonagall says."Sorry to bother you, Mr Fenton, you may go." Danny walks off. And Snape asks Filch."Who was the source of the information, Mr Filch?" Filch says."It was Malfoy professor."
McGonagall says."Could you bring Mr. Malfoy here, Severus?" Snape replies."Of course, Minerva."
Five minutes later, Draco. is questioned by the staff. He hears his plans have failed. And says."Fenton must have tipped them off." Snape says."Except the last person seen interacting with Weasley and Longbottom was you. Mr. Malfoy." Draco says."He must have gone to the trophy room and warned them." Snape says."Five minutes after the time you gave Mr. Filch. Mr. Fenton. Was seen heading towards the bathroom."
McGonagall says, annoyed." Your theory is that Mr. Fenton. Got to the trophy room and back in five minutes? You made some ridiculous scheme that failed. I, therefore, Take twenty-five points from Slytherin. You will be having Detention until Christmas. And I will Write your parents." Draco turns to Snape and says."You can't let them do this." Snape snarls."Be quiet."
Draco begins ranting."Fenton will pay for this." Snape, says pissed."You lost Slytherin points. And you are plotting against the House Seeker? Mr. Malfoy. Might I suggest you keep your head down and your mouth shut? For the foreseeable future. That is if you want to survive until Christmas." Draco pales and walks off. Snape says."Hard to believe he is from the same family as Lucius Malfoy."
The first month ends. And the Hogwarts staff is having the first annual meeting of the year.
Dumbledore says."I open the first annual meeting of the year now. How are the returning students?" Mcgonagall says."Good, some have improved over the summer. Others have declined a bit. But nothing alarming in my class." The other teacher echoes similar statements.
Dumbledore next asks."How are the new students? Hopefully, they are adjusting well." The staff confirms Dumbledore's statement. who then asks."Any students that stand out?" Flitwick snorts and says."Besides the youngest seeker in a century?" Dumbledore replies."How is he as a student?"
Flitwick replies."He, along with. Miss Granger is consistently at the top of the class. Ms Granger has higher scores. But Mr Fenton has a more innate feeling for Magic. In my opinion."
Professor Sinistra is next and says."The same two are at the top of my class as well. But if Mr Fenton was to take His Astronomy OWLS today. Im confident he would walk away with an E or Higher."
Quirell is next and says."My class is much closer together. But Mr. Fenton has slightly better scores than Miss Granger."
McGonagall is next. And she says."In My class, It's Miss Granger who stands out the most. Mr. Fenton is a close second. But I do agree with Filius's assessment. Of better academics and Innate Magic."
Sprout is next and says."While those two do great work in my class as well. It's Mr. Longbottom who is the best student."
Binns says."Ms Granger And Mr Fenton are the only consistent passing students. In my class."
Snape says."The only one who has shown any noticeable skill. In my class is Mr. Fenton. The rest are Dunderheads. As For Miss Granger, she spews textbook answers. And has no original thoughts in her mind."
Dumbledore, feeling that an Argument is coming. Asks."How about extracurricular activities?"
McGonagall says."Well, Mr. Fenton is the Youngest seeker in school, And Mr. Weasley is one of the best chess players I have ever seen."
Flitwick says."Dont get me started, Minerva, Im down three sickles already." Dumbledore is highly amused by this and asks."Anyone else who played Mr. Weasley for money?"
Sprout says."Im Down by two sickles." Hagrid says."Me and Filch are down one sickle each." Dumbledore asks."Severus?" Snape replies."I dont want to talk about it."
Dumbledore says."It seems our first years are a diverse group of students. This meeting is over."
