(Y/n)'s P.O.V
The door falls out of the frame and a cloud if dust billows out from where it falls. I gulp and I back up. My back hits the wall... well Harry. He's hidden behind me... A giant forces himself through the door before pushing it back up as though it never happened. He sits down on the sofa that would've been mine and Harry's bed for the night. The sofa bends slightly as he sits down and he pulls out a crusty dusty umbrella. I watch with wide eyes as he aims it at the fireplace. A couple sparks shoots out the tip (pfffft) and the fireplace fills with flames. My head whips over to the staircase as Uncle Vernon shuffles out with a rifle. Huddled behind him are Aunt Petunia and Dudley. The giant turns to me and Harry and a smile spreads across his face. "Las' time I saw yeh two, yer were only babies" I nod anxiously having no recognition of him and wondering how he knew our parents. I look back over at the Dursleys as Vernon collects the nerves to speak up.
"You're breaking and entering! Leave at once!" The giant rolls his eyes and stands up before bending the tip of the rifle. He walks back and sits down, the sofa creaking again because of his weight.
"Anyways yeh two. Happy Birthday, I got a little summat for yeh. I mighta sat on it at some point but I guess it'll be fine to eat still" He hands me a squashed box and I take it. I pull the ribbon off and open it slowly. A cake with pink icing and green writing saying "Happy Birthday" sits in the middle. I smile.
'Thank you-" I frown realising I don't know his name. As if sensing this he smiles back at me.
"Rubeus Hagrid, keeper o' keys at Hogwarts. You'll know all about Hogwarts o' course" I shake my head slightly as Harry comes out from behind me.
"I'm sorry but... what's Hogwarts?" Hagrid stopped smiling.
"What's Hogwarts!?" He turns to the Dursleys. "Do they know anyfin'? About their world? About what they can do? About how their parents died!?" He was visibly shaking with anger and Dudley scuttled towards me and Harry to avoid Hargrids anger. I set the cake down at the table. I step forward slightly and Harry grabs my wrist and shakes his head slowly before looking at the giant as if he was crazy. I shake his hand off me before sitting down next to Hagrid.
"C-could you tell me?" He smiles and pats my shoulder.
"Course I can (Y/n)." He turns to Harry and motions for him to join us which he does reluctantly. "I must let you know that yer both famous" My jaw drops slightly and I shake my head in disbelief. He only chuckles and nods at my reaction. "Yer sure are!" He frowns before looking between us. "Yeh don' know what yeh are?" I frown before shaking my head.
"I-I'm sorry but I don't know what you mean" Uncle Vernon cuts in, his face bright red as he shakes with anger.
"I command you to stop! You aren't going to tell these boys anything about your world and the filth that you are! We stomped all that out for a reason!" Hagrid trembled with rage.
"Yer never told 'em what they were? Yer never told 'em 'bout Dumbledore and what he left for 'em?" Uncle Vernon seemed to get even redder as he thinks back to the letter he found on top of me and Harry "Yer wizards" Harry looked visibly shocked whereas I slowly nodded. The letter that I kept from the Dursleys finally made sense. "I guess yer read yer letter then (Y/n)?" I nodded and Harry looked over at me, pulling himself out of his shocked state. Hagrid pulled out a letter and handed it to Harry. "Guess it's time yer read yer own letter" He smiled as Harry ripped it open and I looked over his shoulder to read it.
Mr. H. Potter
The Floor
Hut-on-the-rock
The seaI glimpsed at the front of it before he pulled the letter out and I stiffled a chuckle at how accurate the addresss was.
HOGWARTS SCHOOL OF
WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRYHeadmaster: Albus Dumbledore
(Order of Merlin, First Class, Grand Sorc., Chf. Warlock, Supreme Mugwump, International Confed. of Wizards)Dear Mr Potter,
We are pleased to inform you that you have a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Please find enclosed a list of all necessary books and equipment.Term begins on 1 September. We await your owl by no later than 31 July.
Yours sincerely,
Minerva McGonagall
Deputy HeadmistressI nod as the letter was exactly the same as mine. Harry seemed to be bursting with questions although he kept to himself. "Oh, Hagrid? What does it mean by 'we await your owl's?" His eyes widen and he pulls out an Owl, a quill and a roll of parchment from his coat. I looked over at Harry and he looked back with a look that seemed to ask "did he just pull a real owl out of his coat?" I slowly nod, not truly believing my eyes. I watch as he scribbles on the parchment.
Dear Mr Dumbledore
Given the twins their letters... well Harry
Taking them to buy their things tomorrow
Weather's horrible. Hope you're doing well,
HagridHe rolled up the note and handed it to the owl which grasped it in his talons before flying out into the storm. "They aren't going" I jump slightly forgetting the Dursleys were still in the same room. Although they were all paler than the last time I looked over at them. Hagrid laughed.
"I'd like to see yeh stop 'em". I chew my lip.
"You knew. You knew we were wizards. Why didn't you tell us?" I leap to my feet as I shout over at the Dursleys. Harry grabs onto my wrist and this time I don't shake him off. I only let him pull me back down onto the sofa.
"Knew!" Shrieked Petunia. "Knew? Of course I did. My sister got a letter just like the one in his hands. She disappeared off to that school of madness and every summer she came back with pockets full of frog spawn. Not even our parents saw her for what she was- a freak! No. It was all about Lily, the only witch in the family. Then she met that Potter. They left and got married before having you. She got herself blown up trying to save you" She rolled her eyes as tears threatened to spill.
"Blown up?" It was Harry's time to shout. "You told us it was a car crash!"
Hagrid chimed in and immediately silence settled around everyone else. "CAR CRASH? How could a car crash kill Lily and James Potter? How could their sons not know of their own story when every kid in the world know Harry and (Y/n) Potter!?"

I'm gonna split this chapter into two because it's getting a little too long for my liking...
