Harry Potter and the Mirror of Reflection

[magicball356]

It was Harry's birthday.He hadn't opened his presents yet but decided to put them off to later.He was still saddened by Sirius' death.Harry took out the mirror he had given to him.Why hadn't he opened it?Harry thought,"I would have been able to contact Sirius and known he was okay!"

[magicball356]

Harry was obviously angry at himself, he tried talking to the mirror,it didn't show anything except his own reflection. At 16, he was rather on the skinny side, his hair was still messy and he had broken his glasses again.

A brown owl flew in. it was a weird owl, it had glassed on.
    Harry went over and took a letter tied to the claws of the owl. It was a Hogwarts letter, with the sticker on.
   "it must be the book list and stuff,"Harry thought dully...not much exciting happened during the summer. But somehow the package felt heavier then usual...

it read

*harry stopped reading....this would determine his career*

*That's it?That's all they have to say about the OWL's?harry thought*

There was another 6 some parchment next to that. One was the usual equipment he needed;another was all the books he needed to get(Muggle studies,Harry had to smile at this, he lived with muggles!)3 more were ads(that's odd,they never include ads in the usual)One was for wands,another pets and the last one was George/Fred's joke shop.

Harry laughed out loud!There was Fred, with a look of sickness on his face and a long dragon tail whipping up;George got the better of it,obviously,all he had was a really big head! Attached to this was a bag of powder, whatever it was, Harry was sure it was dangerous,he immediately threw it out the window.

The last on was blank,odd.Harry flipped it over and over, but nothing appeared. By now, Harry had been allowed to use magic outside of hogwarts grounds, so he tried to make it alive, but that only made it run around the room and make a whole lof of noise. Then he tried to talk to it and make it talk, but that's after he had it pinned to the wall. The piece of parchment just said yes and no and anything else Harry asked was just gibberish to it.

intresting keep it up....

So,after that, Harry couldn't really do any thing to it. He tried to shut it in Hedwig's cage(whom went for her nightly fly),but it just slipped through the bars. Harry tried to shut it in the closet,but it kept on making noises that he was afraid it would wake the Dursleys. When it was let out though, the brown owl with the glassed chewed it up.

[magicball356]

'thanks,'Harry said. The owl seem to freeze for a second looking at Harry, then it took off in to the night's sky. Harry stared after it for a while, then realising he never found out what the paper said, oh well. Hedwig flew in, obviously finishing his dinner. Harry opened his cage for him and let Hedwig in. Just as Harry was about to settle down and go to sleep, something left in Hedwig's cage seem to disturb him.

[Ginny Weasly]

Cool! Hedwig's must be out alot now...I wonder what she does....

[magicball356]

before Harry had a chance to look at it though, Hedwig had chewed it up. (what is it about owls chewing up paper today?)Harry turned off the lights and went to sleep.

[magicball356]

thanksThe next morning was Dudley's birthday, and that was always a drag, he spent doing 'cool
' things with his posseys, but mostly they just hung and beat up on little kids. Still, Harry wished he had a friend whom he can talk to in person over the the summers. But as Harry did not attend a public school anymore, and Little Whinnings had mostly old people, it was a dull,dull summer.

 ;DThough, a strange thing accured to Harry, except for a witch(partly)next door, he hasn't met anyone 'magic' that lived close to him in walking distance. Maybe they just lived in the city of London, Harry thought. Breakfast was 3 slices of oranges, Dudley was still on his permanately diet, although he isn't getting any skinnier. But thank goodness to Harry's friends, he has something to eat besides fruits and vegtables. Upstairs waiting was a chocolate cake, a bag full of muffins and even Hagrid's mystery cake was better compared to oranges.

Half of the summer was over, Harry still haven't started on his homework, then he remembered, he didn't have any as they had just finished OWL. And thinking about OWL, he remembered a letter was suppose to arrive shortly after the letter so brief. It was noon, Harry had just finished a piece of chocolate cake, so there really wasn't anything to do. 'if it's that boring, why not write to Ron and Hermoine" harry thought. So her took out 2 separate pieces of parchment and wrote:[/color]
