O.W.L. Results
Chapter 2
Harry awoke the next morning to a tapping coming from his window. Groaning he got himself out of bed and checked his clock. 7:30. ‘Great just what I wanted to be doing at this time in the morning. It’s not as if I would have wanted to sleep in or anything.’
He reached over and opened the window and a plain brown barn owl flew in. It landed on the edge of his bed and held out his leg. Harry untied the st, an, and took the thick parchment that was tied to the bird’s leg. The parchment had a wax seal with the letter M on it. Harry broke the seal and opened the letter.

Harry dropped the letter in shock. ‘I got an O in Potions. Oh my God!’ “Yes!!!” Harry yelled at the top of his lungs, forgetting that the Dursleys were in the house and wouldn’t like being awoken at this time in the morning.
“BOY, STOP THAT YELLING THIS INSTANT. SOME PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SLEEP.” Vernon yelled from his room. Harry stopped jumping around, since he didn’t want to get on his uncle’s bad side this early in the summer. ‘I can’t wait to see the look on Snape’s face when he finds out that he has to put up with me for two more years.’
Harry sat down and started to work on some more of his homework since he was already up. After finishing his essay for Transfiguration he put all of his books and things into his trunk. As he was doing this his stomach started to growl. As quietly as he could he tip-toed past Dudley’s and then his aunt and uncle’s room and down the stair to the kitchen. If he didn’t wake them up he wouldn’t have to fix them breakfast. He quickly made himself a piece of toast and poured a glass of orange juice.
After he finished his breakfast he went up stairs to get dressed and decided to owl Remus to find out when he would be able to go to Diagon Alley. As he looked through his closet he was again reminded of the fact that none of his clothes fit him. All of Dudley’s hand-me-downs were all four sizes too big, his robes for school were all about 2 inches too short for him. The only clothes that he had that were the right size for him were the sweaters that Mrs. Weasley made him for Christmas every year. ‘I going to need to go to Gringotts once I get to Diagon Alley. I’ll need a lot more money to get some new muggle clothes and some new robes for school.
Harry heard some stomping down the hallway similar to a heard of rampaging elephants, and then the sound of a television cartoon program. ‘Dudley must be awake. I can’t believe that he still watches cartoons, but I guess that since he can’t understand the other programs he has to settle for something.’ Harry thought to himself.
As soon as Hedwig got back from hunting for the night he sent his letter to Remus off with her. Not five minutes after he sent the letter to Remus, the doorbell rang. Harry could hear Dudley thunder over to the door. ‘It’s probably just one of his stupid friends to get him so that they can go find someone to beat up.’ Harry thought, until he heard Dudley give a very girlish squeal and slam the door.
Curious, Harry went downstairs to see who was at the door. When he got down there Dudley was very pale and was attempting, but failing miserably, to hide behind a chair. “Who was at the door Dudley?” Harry asked slightly disturbed by his cousin’s odd behavior.
“O..one of those freaks.. like you” Dudley said still cowering behind the r. Hr. Harry immediately started laughing. “What is ickle Dudley afraid of someone that isn’t five years younger than him so he can’t pick on them?” Harry said between bouts of laughter. Just then the doorbell rang again.
Harry opened the door and found Remus grinning at him. “Hi Harry, I got you letter.” Harry held the door open and let Remus come in. “Why is your cousin trying to hide behind that chair?” Remus asked puzzled.
Before Harry could answer, Dudley ran up the stairs shrieking “Dad, Mum, Harry invited one of those freaks into the house!” Harry and Remus winced at the sound of Dudley’s voice. ‘Well, so much for leaving without having to see Uncle Vernon.’
“Now see here boy. You can’t just go inviting your kind into this house. They aren’t welcome here.” Uncle Vernon yelled as he thundered down the stairs to the living room, closely followed by Aunt Petunia. “I want you out of this house and away from my family this instant!” Vernon’s face was turning darker and darker shade of purple by the minute.
“Mr. Dursley, my name is Remus Lupin. I’m here to pick up Harry to take him to buy some new clothes. We’ll be out of your way as soon as Harry is ready to leave.” Remus said trying to be as polite as possible so as not to further anger Vernon.
“Well he won’t be getting any money from us to get new clothes, and since he doesn’t have money of his own it would be a waste of time to take him.” Aunt Petunia said. Dudley was again trying to hide himself behind a living room chair.
“Harry has money; his parents left him a vault at Gringotts. He has more than enough to buy a few pairs of new clothes.” Remus said slightly insulted that they would think Lily and James had left Harry with nothing. “I’m just going to run to my room to get my cloak.” Harry told Remus as he dashed upstairs.
“His parents didn’t have any money, and then they went and got themselves killed and left their child for us to take care of.” Vernon said laughing as though the thought that Harry might have money was extremely funny.
“How dare you speak of Lily and James like that? They were two of the best Aurors of their time.” Remus said whipping out his wand, which he pointed at Vernon. Vernon immediately stopped laughing and stepped in front of his wife as if to protect her.
“Remus come on; let’s go. They’re not worth it.” Harry said. He pulled Remus towards the door. When they got outside Remus put his wand back in the pocket of his cloak. They walked over to Mrs. Figg’s house in silence until Remus started to question Harry about his Aunt and Uncle’s attitude toward Harry’s parents. “Do they always speak that badly about them? How can you stand it? I was about ready to hex them into next week.” Remus questioned.
“I can’t really stand it. If you think they’re bad you should listen to Aunt Marge. They told her that my parents were un-employed and were killed in a car accident. Of course, they also told her that instead of attending Hogwarts, I go to St. Brutus’ Academy for Incurably Criminal Boys. The first time that I got in trouble for using magic outside of school was because I made her blow up like a balloon after she said some really awful things about my parents.” Remus and Harry cracked up laughing. Looking back on what happened it was pretty funny; though at the time he thought that he was going to be expelled.
When they walked into Mrs. Figg’s house, Harry was greeted by a couple of familiar faces. “Harry!” Hermione yelled as she flung her self at him. “Hermione, I can’t breathe.” Harry gasped trying to loosen Hermione’s grip around his neck.
“Sorry Harry,” Hermione said. “I’m just happy to see you.” Harry looked up and saw that Hermione was blushing furiously; even her ears were red. ‘She looks so cute when she blushes like that. Wait where did that come from? This is Hermione we’re talking about, you best friend.’
“What’s wrong Harry? You just got this really weird look on your face.” said Hermione. “Nothing,” Harry quickly lied. “Are you coming with Remus and me to Diagon Alley today? I could really use the help. I need to pick out all new clothes. I’m getting kind of tired of wearing all of Dudley’s old clothes.”
“Of course, why do you think I’m here?” Hermione tolm. “m. “so nso need to get some new school robes; mine are all getting to short.”
“Well we better get going. We’re going to Floo to Fred and George’s new shop.” Remus told them. They went over to the fireplace and grabbed a handful of floo powder. “Just say Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes. You’ll end up in the back room of their shop. Just wait for me there and I come after you.”
“Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes” Harry said and felt himself flying past until he stopped and flew out of the fireplace and landed with a thud on the floor covered with soot. He sat up coughing and wiped the soot off his glasses so that he could see.
“Hey Harry, nice of you to come by to see our shop,” Fred said grinning. “Hey it’s our benefactor. Come to see that your money has been put to good use?” George said stepping up behind Fred.
“What are they talking about Harry?” Hermione said dusting herself off after stepping out of the fire place. “I don't know. You know how the twins are.” Harry said trying to avoid Hermione's eyes.
“Come on Harry and Hermione. We need to get going.” Remus led them towards the door. “Come back and see the shop before you leave and we can give you some free samples of some of our newest products.” Fred and George chorused together.
Harry awoke the next morning to a tapping coming from his window. Groaning he got himself out of bed and checked his clock. 7:30. ‘Great just what I wanted to be doing at this time in the morning. It’s not as if I would have wanted to sleep in or anything.’
