Hi everyone!  The song for the chapter is 'Jersey' by Mayday Parade!    Also I realize that I accidentally put two chapters in the last update, whoops!

                    Dudley woke up after the second loud knock asking something about a cannon.  Vernon suddenly came bounding in and was holding a rifle.  Which surprised all of the boys who were residing in the living room.  Vernon was yelling at the thing at the door, but Percy was too intrigued to listen to him.  'Who was strong enough to bang on the door with so much force.  Was it the person who has been sending us letters?' He thought.  The door fell to the ground with a giant bang, making Percy jump and grab his brother.  They stood in silence, stunned as the giant squeezed through the door and kicked Dudley off the couch so he could sit.  He was speaking, but Percy was too stunned to comprehend the words.  'Who is he?  Why is he here?  Is he going to help us?  Is he nice?  What do I do?'  "Ah!  There they are!  Harry and Percy!  You've both gotten so big since I've last seen ya!  Granted you were babies.  Oh, you(pointing to Harry) look just like your father!  'Cept your eyes of course, they're all Lilly.  And you!(pointing to Percy)  You look as if they were smashed together!"  The stranger rambled on.  Uncle Vernon sounded like he was having a stroke, but neither Harry nor Percy cared, this was the first time they've ever heard anything about their real parents.  Vernon seemed to recover from his stroke and screeched,  "Leave at once!  You are breaking and entering!"  Percy grabbed onto Harry, ready to drag him and risk swimming in the raging sea.  He really hated conflict, it made his heart speed up and he'd start to shake.  "Ah, shut up, Dursley, yeh great prune,"  stranger shot back.  He then plucked Vernon's gun out of his hand and twisted it into a knot and threw it out of sight.  Percy was so surprised.  Nobody ever talked to Uncle Vernon like that!  Well, Percy tried to once, but it didn't pan out well for him.  And who can just bend a gun like that?  Uncle Vernon didn't speak again so stranger took the opportunity to talk to the twins,"So, Harry, Percy.  Happy birthday to the both of yeh!  I made something for you two.  I might've sat on it, but it'll still taste just fine."  The yet-to-be-named giant somehow produced a slightly messed up box and handed it towards the twins.  Harry grabbed it and shakily opened it.  It was a cake!  They've never been given a cake, never mind made one.  Which Percy assumed it was handmade considering the misspellings and shaky handwriting.  It was the best thing he had ever received all the same.  "Thank you."  Percy whispered the same time Harry blurted,  "Who are you?"  The man let out a laugh that sounded like thunder.  "I guess I haven't introduced my self.  I am Rubeus Hagrid, Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts."  'How do you keep a ground?  It doesn't really go anywhere.'  Percy was knocked out of is wonderings when Hagrid held his hand out as if to shake hands.  Hagrid took firm handshakes to a whole new level, almost shaking Percy completely off balance.  "I'm Percy, by the way.  He's Harry."  Percy managed to shake his nerves and shock to properly specify which was which.  Hagrid chuckled and asked if they wanted tea.  He made tea differently than Percy and Harry had ever seen.  First, he went over to the fireplace and made fire without any sticks or starters.  Not even a match.  Then he pulled all of the required supplies from his seemingly bottomless pockets.  He even pulled out a package of sausage.  Percy was so shocked he didn't even notice Vernon say anything until after it happened.  He had no idea  what he said, but he was still baffled.  This was the best birthday ever!  Somebody put the Dursleys in their place AND made him a cake.  'Now he's giving us sausage!  It's official, I love this man'  Percy thought gleefully.  Percy managed to remember his manners enough to quietly say a thank you before eating his food along with Harry.  The food was the best thing he'd ever had, well either that, or he was way hungrier than he thought.  Probably option two.  Harry spoke up from his sausages,  "Sorry, but we still don't know who you are really."  "You can call me Hagrid.  Like I said, I'm keeper of key s and grounds at Hogwarts.  I'm sure they told you all about Hogwarts."  Hagrid talked over his tea.  Percy was really confused.  Was it some fancy private school?  "Uhm, no.  Not exactly."  Harry voiced both of their confusion.  The giant man nearly spit out his tea he was so shocked.  Percy mistook the shock for anger and quickly apologized.  "YOU have nothing to be sorry for, boy.  It's THEM who should be apologizin'"  Hagrid continued his rant until he asked the question that's answer would cement his hatred towards the Dursleys, "Didn't ya ever wonder where your parents ever learned everything?"  Both Harry and Percy were confused.  "What were they?  Accountants?"  Percy asked dumbly.  To be fair, he thought Hogwarts was a fancy-dancy private school and and accountant was the most sophisticated job he knew.  "ACCOUNTANTS?!  Did you tell them nothing?!"  Hagrid stormed over to the Dursleys' huddle in his fury.  The huddle cowered further into the wall.  "What I 'm hearing is that you told them nothing about, about ANYTHING!  Is that true? Hagrid fumed.  "Well, we know some math and all."  Percy stepped in, he found it a bit unfair.  They did go to public school, it may not've been the best, but it was still schooling all the same. The giant tried to explain,  "About OUR world.  I mean, YOUR world.  MY world.  Your PARENTS' world.  "What world?"  Harry asked, just as confused as Percy was.  Hagrid nearly combusted from anger, he turned towards the Dursleys and screamed,  "DURSLEY!"  He tried to regain some composure as to not scare the twins,  "But you've gotta know about your parents.  They're famous.  You're famous."  "Wait our parents were famous?  Does that mean we're like, rich or something?"  Harry blurted.  Percy wasn't sure who was more bewildered, him and his brother or Hagrid at this point.  "They don't know what they are."  Hagrid was starting to sound a bit hysterical.  Vernon finally decided to step in,  "Don't you dare even think of telling them.  Hagrid only turned to him and spoke with a voice shaking with rage,  "You didn't tell them?You didn't tell them about themselves?  You made them live a LIE!"  Both Percy and Harry were excited to find out what they were, maybe a little nervous too."I FORBID YOU FROM TELLING THEM!"  Vernon roared.  Hagrid waved them off, seemingly done with them and turned to the twins,  "Harry, Percy, you're wizards.  The both of ya."  Now, that was the last they expected.  'This has to be a joke.'  Percy tried to reason to himself, but he knew it made sense, deep down.  It would explain why everything always went haywire when he was really upset or anxious.  Why he seemed to turn invisible when he didn't want to be seen.   Harry finally came to his senses and gasped out a,  "We're what?"  This just seemed so ridiculous, hey half expected someone to say, "Psych!" and punch them in the stomach.  "Wizards, obviously.  I'd bet you'll be mighty fine ones once you get to Hogwarts."  H sat on the couch, which groaned with his sudden weight and stooped 'til it brushed the ground.  "Speaking of which, here're your letters."  He produced two yellowing envelopes and handed them to Harry, who passed Percy's to him.  It was addressed to exactly where they were moments before the giant entered the shack.  It read:

Dear Harry (or Perseus),

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,

Deputy Headmistress                                                                                                                                                                                                             

Both Harry's and Percy's heads were teeming with questions, but neither could find a voice to ask them.  "What does it mean when it says it awaits our owl?  Does it have something to do with all of the owls that brought the letters?  Because I didn't keep one."  "Oh, I almost forgot!"  Hagrid exclaims and pulls out a quill, paper, and an... owl from his pockets.  He scribbled a note that Percy couldn't read because it was upside down and his eyes just weren't letting it happen.  Hagrid rolled the scrap of paper, tied it to the owl and let it out of the door.  Percy would've questioned it if he hadn't just found out about a whole new world that was hidden to him, and he was a part of it.  "Now, where was I?"  Hagrid came back to explain all about the newly found world when Vernon left his corner and stepped into the fire light.  "They're not going."  He finally stood firm against Hagrid.  "I'd like to see a muggle like you stop 'em."  Hagrid stood intimidatingly.  "What?"  Harry asked.  "A muggle, non-magic folk.  Bad luck on your part to have been stuck with the biggest muggles on the planet."  Vernon continued from where he left off,  "We swore we'd finally stamp this magic nonsense out when we took them in."  Percy couldn't believe it!  He spoke up, not yelling, but just as scary a tone, "You knew and didn't tell us!  You had no right."  He accused.That;s when Petunia finally spoke up, more like shrieked, "Knew?!  Of course we did!How could you not be, my wretched being a stupid witch?  Oh, Lilly this and Lilly that!  Just because of some stupid letter and stupid tricks.  Then of course came along your pig-father.  I was the only one in the family who saw her as the freak she was!  Then she had to get herself blown up and leave us to deal with you two!"  She gasped for air after she let the truck off her chest that's been there since childhood.  Percy and Harry looked at each other.  Blown up?  They were told their parents died in a car crash.  Harry voiced this thought first,  "Blown up?  You said they died in a car crash!"  "CAR CRASH?"  Hagrid quite literally jumped in, considering he shot up from his position on the couch."This is an outrage!  A scandal!  The Potters' not even knowing how their parents died?  Everyone knowing how they are, but not knowing themselves!"  Hagrid ranted.  "But why?"  Harry urged.  Hagrid seemed to loose all anger."Oh geez, I wasn't prepared for this.  Dumbledore never said it'd be this much trouble getting to yehs.  I don't know if I should be the one to tell yehs.  Oh, but someone's gotta.  i can send yehs off to Hogwarts bein' ignorant.  I guess I can tell yehs what  I know."  Hagrid stopped his inner monologue to ramble about someone with a scary name until Percy got impatient and blurted, "Who?"  Hew immediately blushed in embarrassment and apologized.  "Voldemort."  hagrid said the  name with such fear you'd think the person would pop out like in horror films.  Percy logged it into the back of his mind to make sure not to say it around wizards because it seemed to scare Hagrid and other people if he listened correctly.  Hagrid continued to explain how evil this 'Voldemort character was, but Percy wasn't too concerned.  sure he was a bad person, but that's it, WAS.  It's not like he can come back to life, right?

OKAY I FOUND A BOOK!  SO SO SO SO SORRY I COULDN'T UPDATE SOONER.  Also I skipped the last like four pages because I felt this was getting pretty drawn out.  Can't guarantee that I'll be able to post a lot because you all know the excuse: hIgHsChOoL iS hArD.  To be fair, I had a midterm, test, and a quiz today.  I only have four classes a day and one of them is a joke.  I had nothing that class.  On another note, one of my cats is missing (I have 3) and it's been nearly freezing temperauture so I'm also hecking worried about him.  Anyways sorry for the little rant.  Thanks for reading!  Love ya!
