"Percy, you up?" Harry called.
"Almost there." "Percy promptly turned to the other side of the bed.
"Do you want me to wake you up or shall I wait for Aunt Petunia to do the honours?" Harry whispered her name and watched in satisfaction as Percy bolted up and blinked the sleep out of his eyes.
"There brother, you have said the magic words." Percy groaned.
"It's our lovely little Dudley's birthday. We are going to the Zoo." Harry said.
"For the first time we are stepping out of the house, and that too because we can't be trusted alone in here." Percy rolled his eyes at his brother's excitement.
"The Zoo!" Harry was grinning, completely ignoring the eyeroll.
Two hours later, they were in the car, in the worst clothes ever, the mood of the brothers polar opposite. While Harry was excited, Percy was bored. He would have rather stayed home thank you very much.
The boredom was short lived.
"Say Percy, what would you call a person who can hear snakes?" Harry asked.
Percy's left eye twitched as he barely registered his words and instead stared at the fishes ahead, "That fish is talking to me."
"Well, what do they say?" Harry asked.
"They are calling me 'Lord' in my mind." Percy said, eyeing the fishes swimming in front of him, the rest of the tank pretty much empty. Then he turned to his brother and asked, "What about the snake?"
"She says she is a boa constrictor and she never knew her family." Harry looked crestfallen.
"Harry," Percy placed both his hands on his shoulders, "Either we are hallucinating, or this is real. Why don't you ask her to nod her head three times while I ask the fishes to swim in a line. If the said instructions occur, we will have the green flag to freak out."
Harry nodded and stared back at the snake, whispering something inaudible. A second later, the snake nodded, exactly 3 times. Harry, frozen in shock, nudged his brother. Percy had a chat with the overly excited fishes and the fish happily obliged, swimming one after the other. They both stayed silent for a minute.
Before they could begin the ritual of freaking out, their cousin Dudley came up to the glass and banged it, yelling at the snake to move.
"Dudley, don't." Percy warned.
"Oi shut up, will ya?" Dudley growled and banged the glass again. Harry glared at him, and suddenly, the glass disappeared. Dudley fell in while the snake slithered out. As Dudley made his way out, he hit the glass, which had 'magically' appeared back. Freaked out, he started banging it yet again, only this time it wasn't in anger but in fright. Harry promptly laughed at the sight while Percy stared at his red cousin with mouth wide open.
He was officially not bored anymore.
As soon as they reached home, Vernon started his reign of terror on Harry and went in for a slap. Percy, being Percy, stepped in front of him, on the receiving end of it.
"You are freaks, both of you!" Vernon growled and marched away. They both were sent(Read 'thrown') to their room where Harry eyes the red mark appearing on Percy's cheek.
"You shouldn't be the one paying for what I did. I'm the elder one." Harry replied mournfully.
"Only 19 days." Percy weakly remarked.
They did not notice a tab cat eyeing them from outside the window, letting out an unpleasant purr.
Starting from the next day, the Dursley family were in for a surprise. It all started with two letters. Then four letters, then sixteen letters, and then the living room flooded with letters. It went on till they moved to a lighthouse on 30 July in the middle of a stormy night.
The clock struck 12 and Harry blew out the candles of the dusty floor cake.
"Happy Birthday." Percy whispered and and produced a chocolate. Harry noted his condition. He was dripping wet.
"Did you climb out the window?" was Harry's reply.
"Thank you Percy for the chocolate. You are the best brother." Percy said with a pout. Harry repeated those words and then asked again.
"A dolphin gave it to me. He said his name was Delphin." Percy shrugged.
"Well tell him thank you from me. And thank you too." Harry replied.
Then Hagrid, bless him for dramatic entrances, showed up by breaking open the door, told them how they both were wizards, told Harry that James and Lily did not die in a car crash and took both of them away with him, leaving behind a bent shotgun and a Dudley with a pigtail.
They came to know Harry was famous. Hagrid did not elaborate why exactly, but Percy had cleared the doubts when he was reading all the books.
Well people this is officially the first chapter. Hope you guys will like it. Feel free to comment and tell me your opinions. Next up is Diagon Ally. Watch out the pronunciation!
