Mrs. Tucker often thought that Harry was hiding something. Well, the truth was that she too was hiding something from Harry. Actually Mrs. Tucker was a Squib, who had been estranged from her family many years ago. Kailey Tucker used to be Kailey Fawcett, a pureblood line. Being a Squib she was away from the magical world for the last 50 years and did not know anything about Voldemort and Grindelwald. After she was estranged from her family she started living in the Muggle world. And then she married Anthony Tucker, but Anthony and his daughter Mary died in a car accident, against which Kailey fought a case but lost. From then on Kailey started studying law and slowly mastered many fields. The hunger for knowledge that she had in her mind, she saw the same hunger in Harry. Recently she had been noticing some strange symptoms in Harry, just yesterday she saw Harry talking to a dog, but she was surprised when even a bird started listening to Harry. And then Kailey got the first hint of Harry being a wizard.

From then Mrs. Tucker started keeping an eye on Harry. It was the month of July. Harry still came to the library and after the zoo incident he had started doing full-fledged work again. Harry had matured much before his age. It was as if a child had the mind of an adult in his body. And Harry had now become used to all these tasks, although he also liked some of them like cooking and gardening, because of which Harry could talk to animals.

Now Harry had a new problem. At first Harry was not able to answer his questions and then on top of that he could talk to animals especially snakes. Although he did not talk exactly to other animals but he understood their words and they obeyed Harry. But now that his 11th birthday was near, more strange things started happening to him. The first thing he noticed happened on the morning of 19th July. That morning when Harry woke up he started his routine work and when he finished all the work and went to the garden then it happened. Suddenly Harry's head became a little dizzy, and when he gathered himself, it seemed as if there was a plant behind the pine tree, which was dying. When he went near, he saw that someone had uprooted it, Harry planted it back and watered it. But now a big question came up? After animals, now plants too? Although he could not work with plants like animals. Then in the afternoon when he came back from the library, another strange thing happened, he saw that there was something like a shield around his house, as if there was a power field, but Harry had read about all kinds of fields in physics but this was something different. Harry remembered some things from the comics like when Doctor Strange makes a shield, but he immediately removed this idea from his mind because it was impossible. Right?

Why was this happening? Why was Harry suddenly able to feel all this? Actually the thing was that with the blessings of the Dursleys, Harry's magical core kept growing and became very strong with time. After that Harry's memory also became sharp, so a sharp mind started encouraging Harry further and after reaching a certain level of core, Harry was able to talk to animals, which was a long forgotten trait in the wizarding world. Actually this was quite common in the old times, long ago Wizards and Witches used to control magic with the help of nature but with time it became difficult because it was difficult and spell magic started becoming more common. Such magic was called Elemental Magic, which gave a wizard the power to communicate with nature. And young Harry's magical core had become almost five times more mature than his age, due to which these hidden traits began to come out and Harry began to feel the sense of ancient magic.

Next day things started going awry when Harry started seeing or rather feeling the aura of every living thing, or at least that's what Harry was thinking. He read about auras and souls in many theories of science and assumed the same, which was true. But these new things were troubling Harry. But what happened in the afternoon forced Harry to think. When he was washing the dishes, he was lost in all these thoughts and by mistake Aunt Petunia's favourite glass slipped from his hand, Harry tried to catch it by reflex but was late. Harry saw everything in slow motion, he waved his hand in the air to stop the glass but his hand was away from the glass, and then fear gripped his heart as the glass suddenly hung in the air. Harry's eyes remained wide open. He put the glass back and immediately ran to the library. Kailey was observing that Harry seemed to be quite lost. And then Harry came and started to pick up some books but then got disappointed and said bye and left, saying that he came without informing anyone at home. Kailey saw that all the books were on the theories of levitation but remembering Harry's disappointed face she understood that he did not get the answers. Now Kailey was sure that Harry was a magician, now the question was how to tell him this. His Hogwarts letter could have come anytime. She decided that when he comes the next day, she will tell him the truth.

What is happening to me? Harry thought. Harry was lost in these thoughts that evening and that's why for the first time in years his food got burnt. Petunia got very angry and as punishment Vernon hit Harry four times with the belt as he was drunk. Harry fell on the ground, full of pain but couldn't scream or cry. Vernon took off Harry's T-shirt but then he became even more angry.

Harry was thin but his muscles were toned because he secretly exercised every morning, did yoga, meditation, etc. Obviously after reading and having so much knowledge he was not gonna waste it. And as far as diet was concerned, Harry now followed a vegetarian diet because cooked animal food seemed strange to Harry. Still, he ate meat occasionally. Harry ate simple food at home and various birds brought fruits for him. And for a long time, Harry was having his lunch with Mrs. Tucker. (Harry needed a great deal of excuses to stop her from coming and asking permission from the Dursleys.)

"What is this, BOY!!!!!" Vernon yelled. "So now you've started stealing food, eh?" he said suddenly in a dangerously calm voice. And then Harry knew what would happen now. Uncle Vernon took out all his frustration on Harry. He did not even notice that he did not hit him on the face. It was one of the worst beating of his life. Harry was bleeding, not that it was something new but today he was feeling different. Harry had to crawl to his cupboard and as soon as he went in he started crying. Harry had always been used to keeping his emotions under control. But today he could not stop himself.

Harry felt comfortable with Lily, James, Moony and Padfoot but it was not real, he wanted real love, a real hug, genuine care, but Harry knew that this was impossible. Around midnight he calmed down a bit though while sobbing. Harry had cried like this many times. "Impossible reminds me..." and then Harry told his stick family about today's glass incident. "Nothing to worry dear, that's accidental magic." Lily said. Don't know how, but the thoughts about the Wizarding World were still in Harry's subconscious mind, he just had to get them out somehow. "You have done it before also, son." Moony said. "Earlier ? but magic is impossible." But Harry knew that no one said this was a lie. "Oh, if it seems so, then what about the flying motorbike?" Padfoot said. "And your toy broomstick?" James said. Harry fell asleep thinking all these thoughts. And the spiders made a bandage and Harry's magical healing began.

When Harry opened his eyes, he was in a forest. It was windy, the air was cool. Harry saw that there was no wound in his share, and then he saw that Harry's parents came out of the mist. Harry was overwhelmed. Harry had never seen their pictures before but he knew it was them. He ran and hugged them fiercely. Tears were flowing down their cheeks. After several minutes they broke apart. "Mum ... Dad" Harry said between sobs. They nodded. Then this beautiful dream turned over. And flashes started appearing in front of Harry. He saw a stern woman, whom he recognized as Minnie, but then the scene changed, he saw a black dog, then the scenes kept changing, he saw a werewolf, then a house, Godric's Hollow, and suddenly his magical core exploded and the scenes changed and he started seeing things which were not even in his subconscious mind. A house which stood there no one knew how, but everything inside was working on its own. Rest of the people were blur, there was a plump woman who was feeding her children. Then he went and saw a girl. She was not blur unlike the others. She had long flaming red hair, freckles on his face and his eyes were chocolate brown, but then the scene changed from chocolate brown and he saw a packet of chocolates which Remus had brought years ago, and then Harry realized that Moony was Remus.

And suddenly the scene shifted again, Not Harry, please, he heard a woman's call and then a shadow holding a stick and then dark green light. "Up, Up, Get Up Now." Petunia's shrill voice was heard. Harry woke up with a start. He was covered in cold sweat. "Are you up now?" Petunia shrieked. "Nearly." Harry groaned painfully. Harry's scar was burning and then Harry realised that his body had become stiff and then he remembered the beating of the previous night. The wounds were quite full but there was still pain.

But now Harry realised one thing. Magic is real. This is the only explanation. And secondly his parents certainly did not die in the car crash. He believed that the reason for this was that shadow figure and the green light.

That's the dream I was thinking about, that's when I thought of the girl.' She was pretty. ' he thought, but then why that thought? He didn't notice that he was blushing slightly. There was something about that girl which he couldn't explain. She was special, but why and is she even real? With all this in mind, he came out.

Ginny Weasley woke up suddenly. She was confused as to what kind of dream this was. First she was playing Quidditch with Harry Potter and then suddenly she saw a boy who was working in the kitchen, and then he was studying, then suddenly she saw a green light and she got up. But she felt something with that Boy, he was messy Raven haired , somewhat thin but he looked pretty decent and his eyes were emerald, but this matched description of Harry Potter, but this boy was different from the one in books. She always knew that books were fake but now she got proof or did she ?

He saw that Dudley was in his new school uniform which was from Smeltings, which was quite hilarious according to Harry but Petunia thought otherwise. She found Dudley all grown up and she was proud, Vernon was also expressing his happiness, and on the other hand Harry was trying to stop his laughter which was painful as he realized that his couple of ribs were broken. In this situation too Harry had to make breakfast, and then he got some bread crumbs, which Harry found tasty anyway. It was about yesterday when Petunia went to get Dudley's uniform and Harry got an elephant skin like uniform which he was going to wear at Stonewall High but there was one thing, Dudley would not be there.Then the sound of the mail arriving came.

" Get the Mail Dudley" said Uncle Vernon.

" Make Harry do it. "

" Get the Mail Boy. "

"Make Dudley get it. "

" Poke him with ..." But no more words were needed, Harry had already left.

Three things lay on the doormat : a postcard from Marge , a bill and a letter for Harry. Harry thought that he should first take this letter to the kitchen and open it but then seeing the wound on his hand he threw the letter in his cupboard and went to the kitchen with the rest of the letters. While thinking about who might have written the letter, Harry's hand slipped and the bacon pan fell down. Uncle punished him by going in the cupboard for 2 days. Harry was thrown in the cupboard and locked.

Dear Mr. Potter,

We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.

Term begins on September 1. We await your owl by no later than July 31.

Yours sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall,

Deputy Headmistress

This letter turned Harry's doubt into belief, meaning it is true that there is a magic world. And he has got admission in a school. But how will he buy the stuff, how will he go there? What do you mean they are waiting for me? That too, 31st July means only one week is left. And 31st means my birthday? Thousands of questions started popping up in his mind. But he got answers to many of his questions, which was Magic is real.

Lily, Padfoot, James and Moony congratulated him and asked him to keep the letter safely. Harry could feel after seeing the letter that it was magical. And then Harry understood that there is a magical shield around the house as well. That is why I can talk to animals. Everything is fitting. Now there is just one problem, how to reach school. Then Harry got an idea. He took out a paper from his bag and started writing in it,

Dear Professor McGonagall,

(Harry realised this may be his Minnie.)

I got my letter today but I am afraid that my Aunt and Uncle do not understand all this and are forbidding me from going. To be honest, I also did not understand it properly. Please send a representative who can explain this. (Lily said what to write).

Thank you.

Yours Faithfully,

Harry Potter.

That same night Harry opened the locker, though he had already learnt how to do it, he just had to use a little maths and physics. Anyway, Harry went out, he didn't have an owl with him so Harry requested Spare, and Spare agreed. To be honest, there was no guarantee whether Spare would find McGonagall or not, but this was Harry's only chance. After that Harry tied the letter in Spare's feet and went back to the cupboard. The next day again a letter came, but this time it fell into Vernon's hands. Harry decided to act. And he met Harry in Dudley's second bedroom. Harry was shocked that Petunia and Vernon knew each other, but what difference would it make elsewhere. Then letters started arriving in strange ways, and Harry was not allowed to go out. The letters were still coming, so Harry understood that Spare had not yet found McGonagall. The limit was reached when Uncle's paranoid nature increased and Harry found himself in the middle of the sea, who had now lost all hope.

Mrs.Tucker became even more worried as Harry had not come for a whole week. Something was definitely wrong. And the day Kailey reached No. 4 Privet Drive, she found that the whole family had gone somewhere. Kailey returned home dejected.

Afternoon of 30th July, in McGonagall Castle, Minerva had just returned from there after explaining everything to Hermione Granger's family. She was the last Muggle-born of the year, whom it was McGonagall's job to explain. Minerva was relaxing and drinking tea, sitting on her balcony. Then she saw a bird come in from the ward, and it looked very tired. McGonagall immediately took it in her hands and gave it some food and water. Then she saw that there was a letter on the foot of this sparrow. 'Well that is interesting! I have never received a letter from the hands of a sparrow, who could have asked me to send it?' she thought. Minerva first took out the letter and saw that it had been received by the right recipient. It was very clearly written in a neat and tidy calligraphy 'To Minerva McGonagall, Deputy Headmistress, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.' Minerva was impressed with the beautiful handwriting. "If only all my students had such handwriting, then grading essays would be so much easier." She chuckled. Then she read the letter and was in shock that Harry Potter's relatives needed a representative. She immediately went to the Headmaster's office on a floo network.

"Albus, what is this? Has there been no reply from Harry Potter yet?" McGonagall asked. "Well it is true, Harry probably hasn't received the letter." Albus said. "This is a lie. His relatives were not understanding it, that is why Harry sent me a letter to send a representative." Minerva said. Albus was shocked, "Are you in contact with him?" Albus blurted out. "No, this is the first letter I have received." Minerva said sadly. She had expected that all letters from Harry would be addressed to Granma Minnie, it is not so formal. "Don't worry, Hagrid has left." Dumbledore explained. "Hagrid!!! But Dumbledore, why doesn't he have a teacher?" McGonagall asked fiercely. "I thought they didn't want to send Harry here, so maybe they would have to send someone who could make an impression on them." Dumbledore said with Twinkle in his eyes. McGonagall sighed heavily.

The storm raged more and more ferociously as the night went on. Harry couldn't sleep. He shivered and turned over, trying to get comfortable, his stomach rumbling with hunger. Dudley's snores were drowned by the low rolls of thunder that started near midnight. The lighted dial of Dudley's watch, which was dangling over the edge of the sofa on his fat wrist, told Harry he'd be eleven in ten minutes' time. He lay and watched his birthday tick nearer, wondering if the Dursleys would remember at all, wondering where the letter writer was now.

Five minutes to go. Harry heard something creak outside. He hoped the roof wasn't going to fall in, although he might be warmer if it did. Four

minutes to go.

Three minutes to go. Was that the sea, slapping hard on the rock like that? And (two minutes to go) what was that funny crunching noise? Was the rock crumbling into the sea?

One minute to go and he'd be eleven. Thirty seconds . . . twenty . . . ten . . . nine — maybe he'd wake Dudley up, just to annoy him — three . . . two . . . one...BOOM.

There was a crash behind them and Uncle Vernon came skidding into the room. He was holding a rifle in his hands — now they knew what had been in the long, thin package he had brought with them.

"Who's there?" he shouted. "I warn you — I'm armed!" There was a pause. Then — SMASH!

The door was hit with such force that it swung clean off its hinges and with a deafening crash landed flat on the floor. A giant of a man was standing in the doorway. His face was almost

completely hidden by a long, shaggy mane of hair and a wild, tangled beard, but you could make out his eyes, glinting like black beetles under all the hair.

Then flashes of memories started coming in Harry's mind, he saw a motorbike flying and then he remembered who it was. "Couldn't make us a cup o' tea, could yeh? It's not been an easy..." But he was interrupted. " Hagrid ????" Harry asked bewildered.

"Galoping Gargoyles! You remember me Harry." Harry nodded, Hagrid's eyes became wet and he said, "The last time I saw you, you were the size of a pea. And I don't know if anyone told you or not, but you look just like James," ... "Dad's?!" Harry said half knowingly, "Yeah! except youre eyes, those are Lily's" ... "Mum's!" Harry said with tears in his eyes. And following instincts Harry ran and gave Hagrid a hug, Harry remembered that Hagrid used to come to meet him, and always played nicely with him. Hagrid though not expecting that returned the hug just as fiercly. Then they broke apart. Harry extended his hand, grinning, " Harry Potter, pleased to meet you." and Hagrid shook him with a handshake, " Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of the Keys, Hogwarts." smiling. Then Vernon spoke out, " just stop there, don't say anything further, I have a pistol." he threatened. Hagrid went there and bent the gun like rubber, " I will also see how a Great Muggle like you stops me." That made him back off.

A/n : Well , that was it , I hope you like it. Thanks for reading. Yeah ! I said that it would not be a soul bond , but there is no other way for that as they are very young. So that would be it. Although, I will try to make it different. Please Review!!!
