Chapter 1
Petunia was humming to herself as she flipped the bacon that sizzled and popped, she lowered the temperature not wanting them to burn. She looked over to see her nephew was busy making the mixture for pancakes, the twelve year was quite as he whisks. She could hear her husband moving around upstairs, his heavy steps shaking the chandler. " Hurry up boy" she scolded. " yes aunt petunia" the boy nodded as he went about pouring the mixture into the pan next to the cooking bacon.
" Take over " she ordered as she wiped her hands off on her apron. She moved to the front door to collect the mail; she glanced to Dudley who sitting at the table eyes glued to the small Tv that was set up in the dining room. She kissed his head but he didn't notice.
She shook her head and continued to the door, there was a pile of mail waiting for her. She sighed knowing most would be bills. It was nearing the end of summer and soon would need to go school shopping. she spotted a magazine advertisement for sales on back-to-school outfits. She smiled as she flipped through them, the prices were decent enough and the clothes not half bad. Something caught her eye, and she looked up to see a large brown owl sitting on a tree branch.
She scowled at it, she hoped the neighbors wouldn't notice the bird in her yard, she debated whether or not to chase it away with her broom. she decided against it, if she did that that it would most definingly be noticed. Can't have her neighbors see her make a fool of herself with a broom now can she.
Petunia flipped more through the envelope, water bill, ad, bill, Hogwarts letter, bill, wait what? Petunia stopped and went back to the letter. Thinking it must be for her nephew she put it aside without looking at it. ' Must be school supply list' she thought. she remembered Lilly used to get one around this time. As she made her way to the kitchen, she came across another letter, ' two?' she thought confused.
' that's odd' she frowned as she read the letter, it was addressed to Harry potter, the usual was printed on it. she pulled the other out and wondering why there would be two. As her eyes landed on the letter that looked to be worn out and slightly yellow.
She paled as she read the front.

Petunia stared at the letter in shock and anger. What kind of sick joke was this!
