Chapter 24: Shocking discovery and fun!

“What happened now?” Harry asked and Dumbledore sighed as he looked toward the young man he saw as a grandson.

“We sent a couple of orders to your house Harry, I’m sorry but your aunt and Uncle are missing, I had the hospital to check the dental record of Hermione’s parents and I’m sorry to say that they were are your aunt and Uncle, Hermione, Your parents must still be alive somewhere.” Dumbledore explained and Harry sat back stunned. Sure he wished for them to be dead over the last couple of years but he never thought it would come true, he didn’t know what to feel toward that fact that his only family had died in place of Hermione’s parents.

“What about Dudley?” Harry croaked out.

“That is a very good question, the orders have looked up and down but there are no sign of him, we believe that he could be either dead or been kidnapped.” Dumbledore explained.

“So you are saying that my parents are alive but Harry’s aunt and uncle are dead?” Hermione asked, her brain trying to process everything, she had just buried her parents a few weeks ago!

“Yes that’s what I’m saying and the fact that puzzled me the most is, why did this person do this?” Dumbledore asked.

“To get back at us, to try and kill two birds with one stone.” Harry muttered and Ron looked at him.

“Why only tell Hermione that her parents are alive, why not sent you anything about your family being in danger?” Ron asked and Harry shrugged.

“Maybe they thought I wouldn’t go after them considering what they did to me.” Harry suggested “But the thing is how did they knew that I didn’t like my family? I don’t get it, no one knows what they’ve done to me apart from me.” Harry asked and Dumbledore looked at him sharply.

“Have your scar been burning?” he asked and Harry shook his head.

“No so that means it’s nothing to do with Voldemort for once.” Harry explained; Dumbledore just looked very puzzled.

“Yes, it must mean that. You three may continue on and go to your class.” He said, dismissing them, they nodded and left the room, feeling more confused than ever.

“What do you think is going on?” Ron asked.

“Someone is trying to get to us and I wanna know who is it! I don’t like games especially when they are playing with me.” Harry growled and Hermione nodded as she rubbed her hand up and down his arm.

“I know, same here Mate.” Ron agreed.

“But how do we know who is it?” Hermione asked.

“We’ll wait and see if you get another letter then we take action, we need to find out who is it soon before anything else happens.” Harry whispered, making sure that no one could overhear.

Unknown to them, a figure was listening very well round the corner and they smirked as they hurried toward a fireplace, they looked around before throwing some floo powder into the fireplace.

“Fan Sha La!” they shouted and a voice came through.

“What do you have for me?” The Male voice asked.

“They know that someone is after them, they plan to wait till you send the letter again then take action but they want it to hurry up as Potter hates games.” The spy sneered.

“Good work, I will inform you when I have more ideas.” The voice said and the soy chuckled.

“Hope you don’t take too long, I want to put that Granger Girl out of her misery and make Potter mind, he should have been mine from the beginning!” the spy snarled.

“Don’t worry, he’ll will be yours and Granger will be mine to kill.” The voice snarled back and they both laughed as they broke the connection.

The spy looked around to make sure that no one had overheard and smirked to him or herself as they headed out of the portrait door.”

“Stuart, he is really bugging me!” Jane snapped and Stuart nodded in agreement.

“I can’t believe this, this is just really stupid.” Stuart agreed.

“Why did they have to do this to us in the first place?” Jane asked and Stuart shrugged.

“Now I know what Ron meant by Dudley being a pig in the first place.” Stuart explained as they both watched as Dudley eat all the food that was placed in front of him with a thought for anyone else.

“No wonder Hagrid turned him into a pig in Harry’s first year.” Jane whispered, remembering what Hermione had written to them about Harry’s family and both of them snickered at the thought.

“Life sucks!” Ron exclaimed as he fell on the chair while Harry and Hermione looked at him with a weird look. “What?” Ron asked.

“Why does life suck again?” Harry asked.

“Oh come on, Voldemort takes every chance to kill you while this guy is slow as a slobber worm and trust me, that is very slow!” Ron exclaimed and Hermione giggled.

“You have to admit Harry, he is right.” Hermione agreed and Harry rolled his eyes.

“Like there hasn’t been anything interesting going on this year!” Harry exclaimed, “I get turned into a puppet, we are engaged, you can control animals, Ron was starving during a funeral, we had the court first thing, you had Ron going between us, trying to get us together!” Harry pointed out and Ron snickered.

“Oh man, you should have seen your face when you saw Hermione in that outfit!” Ron said and Harry threw him a glare.

“Shut up!” Harry exclaimed with a playful growl as he threw a cushion at Ron.

“Remember first year? When we fought the troll?” Ron asked and Harry rolled his eyes.

“How could I not? I was shouting at you to do something and you were looking around saying ‘With what?’” Harry laughed and Ron threw the cushion back.

“What about the time when we went through the trap door.

“There’s no wood!” Both, Ron and Harry teased Hermione who blushed.

“At least I’m not the one who panicked!” Hermione teased back.

“What about second year? We had Lockhart!” Ron exclaimed in disgust and Harry laughed.

“WHY have you outlined your Defense Against the Dark Art in hearts?!” Harry demanded, remembering what Ron had asked Hermione.

“Hey, I was young and naive at the time!” Hermione shouted in her defense and Ron laughed.

“Oh yeah!” Ron teased back and this time Hermione threw him the cushion.

“Shut it Weasley, I seem to remember when your broomstick hit you in the nose!” Hermione shot back and Harry laughed remembering the time.

“Oh that was a classic!” Harry laughed and Ron rolled his eyes.

“Sure, make fun of Mr. Fun.” Ron huffed in a girly voice which sent the two of them cracking up.

“Is there something you want to tell us?” Hermione asked and Ron’s eyes took on a mischievous glint.

“Right Miss Granger, you asked for it! Harry holds her down!” Ron demanded and Harry grabbed Hermione’s arm and pinned them above her head.

“Guys?” Hermione asked with fear in her eyes and voice then she let out a screech of laugher as both boys tickled her to death. “Guys (Laugh) Stop! (Laugh) Please! (Squeal) Come on (Laugh)” Hermione was having a hard time talking.

“Say Boys are the best, Girls are the losers!” Ron demanded and Hermione laughed even harder.

“Guys please!” Hermione squealed but they just tickled her even harder. “Fine! (Laugh) Boys are the (Laugh) Best! Girls (Squeal) are the (Laugh) Losers! Right that’s it (Laugh) I’ve said IT!” Hermione squealed and both boys backed off, Hermione let out a sigh of relief as they all relaxed on the couch. Ron was to the left of her and Harry was to right of her. “You guys are the best!” Hermione exclaimed and both boys smiled as they kissed the top of her head.

“You are the best too.” They both cheered and all three of them cracked up, enjoying being together.
