The owls
Harry looked at me after opening his letter. "Hogwarts?" He asked "what's Hogwarts?" He asked again. I looked at him and my jaw dropped. How could he not know what Hogwarts was? I pushed him playfully "THATS THE SCHOOL MOM AND DAD WENT TO" I yelled. Suddenly I heard banging once again, Vernon was coming. I grabbed the door pulling it towards me and harry to keep it shut. I heard another bang but this time it was at our door. "GET OUT HERE, GET OUT HERE NOW" Vernon yelled, I looked at Harry and he looked at me. "GIVE ME THOSE STUPID LETTERS" he yelled again. Me and Harry both froze completely, how did he know we had the letters? Was I really not that sneaky? The next thing I saw was our door flying open and seeing an angry, fat Vernon standing there right In front of us.
I looked at Harry as Vernon grabbed both of our arms pulling us out. "Ow let go of me, let go!" Harry shouted "Let us go!" I yelled. Me and Harry yelling only made Vernon madder, he started grabbing us even harder. He brought us out into the living room and threw us on the couch. Harry and I still had the letters in our hand until Vernon grabbed them and threw them into the fire.
"HEY THATS MINE!" Harry yelled when Vernon took his. "HEY" I yelled once he took mine. I whispered "pathetic oaf" Vernon heard me...oops. "What was that you little git?" He snarled at me. "Nothing" I sighed. "That's what I thought, today we are going to the zoo for Dudley's birthday...you too are going with us and you better not touch Anything!" Vernon spat, me and Harry nodded and turned back to look at the fire. Those were our letters.

~AT THE ZOO~
Vernon and petunia were merlin knows where. Harry, me and Dudley are over by this long green snake...it's not doing anything and Dudley is throwing a huge fit as if he was a baby. "Make it move" he whined to us. "We can't just make the snake move" Harry groaned. Dudley scoffed and started tapping the glass and yelling at the snake to move. "Dudley your disturbing the snake leave it alone!" I yelled pushing him away from the glass. That was a bad idea. Next thing I knew I was on the ground beside Harry. Dudley turned around and walked away to go bug another innocent animal.
Harry stood in front of the glass and I got up standing beside him. "Sorry about that" Harry said to the snake "he's a bit...inpatient sometimes" I finished. The snake looked at us and winked.
"Can you hear us?" Harry whispered. The snake nodded. "Woah, I've never talked to a snake before" I said. Harry looked at me and back at the snake "neither have i" he said. "Where are you from?" Harry asked. The snake pointed at a small board on the side of the large cage "Bread in captivity" the sign said.
"You don't know your parents? Do you?" Harry asked it. The snake shook its head. "Neither have we" I said. I looked at Harry who looked like he was about to cry. "It's okay Harry, I know I miss them too" I said while pulling him into a hug. We heard foot steps behind us. It's Dudley. "MUM DAD LOOK WHAT THE POTTERS GOT THE SNAKE TO DO" Dudley pushed me and Harry out of the way shoving us on the ground and ran right into the glass cage.
He was banging on it. All of a sudden the glass was...it was gone and Dudley fell into the water. Me and Harry were trying so hard to hide our laugh so Vernon wouldn't hit us. It didn't work we both bursted out laughing. The snake started crawling around Dudley and left the cage, leaving hundreds of people screaming in horror while it slithered away. "Thankssss" it said to me and Harry before leaving. Dudley got up from the water and went to leave the tank when he couldn't get out. The glass magically reappeared causing Dudley to be stuck in the large tank. He was banging and banging on the glass but he couldn't get out.
Vernon and petunia came running over noticing their son was screaming from the inside of a snake tank. "DUDLEY" petunia yelled. She tried banging on the class asking how he got In there and then there's Vernon, death staring me and Harry like we both just committed a felony. Harry and I were still laughing when Vernon grabbed our arms and dragged us outside to the car go go back home.

~AT THE DURSLEYS~
We were pulling into the driveway when we seen hundreds...no...thousands of owls all over the street facing our house. There were at least 50 on our roof alone!. We got out of the car when we almost got attacked by them all. "SHOO SHOO" yelled Vernon. "COME ON IN THE HOUSE NOW!" Yelled petunia. Everyone got up and ran inside the house and locked the door. We went into the living room only to find...letters shooting inside from every hole in the wall and every entrance into the room. I looked at the letters.
* To Harry Potter in the cupboard under the stairs*
* To Ophelia Potter in the cupboard under the stairs*
That's what every single letter said. Those are the letters Vernon burned earlier!!!. Me and Harry grabbed one as fast as we could and made a run for it.
"GIVE ME THAT LETTER" Vernon yelled chasing us. Harry tried to open the cupboard door only to be snatched by Vernon into his big arms. "THATS IT WERE GOING AWAY" he yelled while collapsing into the Wall behind us. Dudley and petunia came out from behind the door. "Daddy's gone mad hasn't he!" Dudley yelled watching us. Me and Harry are still trying to squirm out of Vernon's arm until petunia yelled at him to let us go. He let us go and grabbed the letters and burned them. Every single one of them from inside the house and made me and Harry sit on the couch and watch him do it.
Why aren't we allowed our letters?
