(London – Privet Drive) – Year of 1981

It was nighttime, there was a neighborhood on a street called Privet Drive. An owl, sitting on the street sign flew off to reveal a mysterious appearing old man donned in red robes and a young boy wore brown t-shirt and light tan pants as they are walking through a forest near the street. He stopped at the start of the street and took out a mechanical device and zapped all the light out of the lampposts. He puts away the device and a cat meowed.

The man, called Albus Dumbledore and young boy named Luke Addams Dumbledore, looked down at the tabby cat which sat on a brick ledge.

Albus Dumbledore is the famous powerful wizard and Headmaster from Hogwarts. Albus Dumbledore was tall and thin, with silver hair and gray beard. He had a very long and crooked nose. Dumbledore wore half-moon spectacles and a colorful array of robes (Red to grayish blue).

He looked at the cat. "I should have known that you would be here... Professor McGonagall." He says to the cat.

The cat sniffled and showed a woman for her to appear with a strange shadow performance.

Professor Minerva McGonagall is the Deputy Headmistress and Head of Gryffindor House. She is gray haired witch in emerald-green robes with green eyes and light skin. She also wore a pointed hat cocked to one side and wears square spectacles for some reasons.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore. And good evening to you, Mr. Addams." The woman replied to the man and the boy. "Are the rumors true, Albus?"

"I'm afraid so, Professor. The good, and the bad..." Dumbledore told her, his voice soft but obvious power underneath it.

"And the boy?" McGonagall questioned.

As they walked up the road a little, towards one house, Dumbledore looked at her.

"Hagrid is bringing him." He tells her.

"Do you think it wise to trust Hagrid with something as important as this?" McGonagall then asked as they walked.

"Ah, Professor, I would trust Hagrid with my life, even Luke become respected to him." Dumbledore told her.

"Because any friend of Dumbledore is a friend of mine, Professor." Luke pointed out.

A motorcycle was heard, and it came flying down, skidding on the street before it stopped. A large figure took off his goggles, revealing a gruff but kind looking giant man, Hagrid.

Hagrid is the Keeper of Keys and Grounds of Hogwarts and friendly half-giant. He was about twice as tall as an average man, standing at eight feet, six inches tall (too big for an ordinary-sized broomstick) and three times as wide, with a long mane of shaggy black hair and a tangled beard that covered most of his chin. His eyes were black, and skin is deeply fair.

"Professor Dumbledore, Sir. Professor McGonagall." He greeted.

"Hello, Hagrid." Luke greeted.

"Hello there, Luke. I'm so surprised to see you there." Hagrid greeted to him.

Dumbledore looked at him.

"No problems, I trust, Hagrid?" He asked the man.

Hagrid smiled. "No, sir. Little tykes fell asleep just as we were flying over Bristol. Heh. Try not to wake him... There you go." He said, handing the baby to Dumbledore.

McGonagall observed the toddler.

"Albus." She spoke to Dumbledore. "Do you really think it's safe, leaving him with these people? I've been watching them all day. They're the worst sort of Muggles imaginable. They really are-"
