The Potter's (MaleOCxHermione)

🗝Keeper of the Keys🗝

That stormy night, a tall house, on a rock island somewhere out at sea. The Dursleys, including Harry and Edward have moved there, due to the chaos with the letters. The family is sleeping, with the brothers on the cold, dirt floor and Dudley sleeping on a sofa. Edward has drawn a birthday cake which reads, Happy Birthday Harry. Edward looks at Dudley's watch, which beeps 12:00.

Edward: [quietly] "Make a wish, Harry."

Harry: [he blows the "candles" on the drawn birthday cake] "Happy birthday to us."

Suddenly, the door thumps, in sync with the thunder flashing. The twins jump. The door thumps again and Dudley, Edward and Harry jump up and back away. Harry hides behind a wall, Edward stands in the open and Dudley cowers on a windowsill. Petunia and Vernon appear, with Vernon holding a double barrel gun.

Vernon: "Who's there? Ahh!"

The door bangs again and then falls down, and a giant man appears. As he comes into the clear lighting, he is revealed to be Hagrid.

Hagrid: "Sorry 'about that." [He puts the door back up]

Vernon: [aiming his gun at him] "I demand that you leave at once, sir! You are breaking an entering!"

As Petunia quietly gasps in fear, Hagrid grabs the gun and bends it upwards.

Hagrid: "Dry up, Dursley, you great prune. [The gun fires upwards, blasting a hole in the ceiling, causing the two to shriek in fear. Hagrid notices Edward.] Boy, I haven't seen you since you were a baby, something tells me your Edward."

Edward: "Yes...yes sir!"

Hagrid: "Boy you look just like ya mother. Now where's your brother? [Hagrid sees Dudley by the window] Oh Harry you're a bit more along than I would have expected. Particularly 'round the middle!"

Edward: "That's not Harry."

Harry reveals himself

Harry: "I-I am."

Hagrid: "Oh, well, of course you are! Got something for the two of ya. 'Afraid I might have sat on it at some point! I imagine that it'll taste fine just the same. Ahh. Baked it myself. [Hands the boys the cake] Words and all. Heh."

Harry opens the cakes box, which reads "Happee Birdae Harry & Edward" in green frosting.

Harry and Edward: "Thank you!"

Hagrid: "It's not every day that your young man turns eleven, now is it aye?"

Hagrid sits down on the sofa, takes out an umbrella and points it at the empty fire. Two sparks fly out and the fire starts. The family gasps.

Harry: [puts cake down] "Excuse me, who are you?"

Hagrid: "Rubeus Hagrid. Keeper of keys and grounds at Hogwarts. Course, you'll know all about Hogwarts."

Harry: "Sorry, no."

Hagrid: "No? Blimey, Boys, didn't you ever wonder where your mum and dad learned it all?"

Edward: "Learned what?"

Hagrid: "Your wizards."

The twins look confused.
