▌ 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐘 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐌𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐃 to a tower in the middle of the sea. Aileen found it eerie that they had to stay in such a place.

Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia slept upstairs in a bed, and Dudley slept on a couch downstairs while Harry and Aileen had to sleep on the filthy ground next to him.

The twins were awake while everyone else was sleeping.

They both drew a birthday cake in the dirt that was the spot where they were sleeping.

It was their birthday.

But no one over cared that it was.

They looked over at Dudley's watch and waited until it struck midnight before blowing out the imaginary candles on the dirt cake.

"Happy Birthday, Harry." Aileen spoke. "Happy Birthday, Aileen." Harry said.

All of a sudden, the tower begins to shake, and the door sounds like someone is trying to knock it down, causing the twins to jump and Dudley, Uncle Vernon, and Aunt Petunia to wake up

The twins stand against the wall, hoping that whatever was coming through the door wouldn't see them.

Vernon grabbed a shotgun for self-defense. Petunia turned the light on to see better.

When the door finally fell down, they all saw a tall figure standing there.

None of them could see his face until he stepped more into the light. "Sorry about that." He spoke.

Aileen was so confused about who that was.

"Who is that?" Aileen whispered to Harry. Harry shrugged.

The guy had a large beard, was very tall, and had long hair.

He lifted the door and put it back into where it fell from.

"I demand you leave at once! You are breaking and entering!" Uncle Vernon demanded. The guy walked Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon. He grabbed the shotgun and bent it to where it was facing the ceiling and fired it.

"Boy, I haven't seen you since you were a baby, Harry, but you seem a little more different, especially in the middle. Now, where is Aileen?" He said once he came over to Dudley.

"I-I'm not Harry." Dudley stuttered.

Aileen saw that Harry was about to step out. "I am." Harry spoke up. "Well, of course you are!" The tall man said.

"Now, where is your sister, Aileen?"

Aileen stepped out to face him.

"There you are!" The man exclaimed. "I haven't seen you since you were a baby, either. You both have grown so much since I last saw you."

"I have something to give the both of you."

He grabbed out a white box with a blue string. The twins opened it together and revealed a cake with icing, and words saying, "Happy Birthday, Harry and Aileen.

The two smiled at that. This was their very first actual birthday gift. "Thank you!" They exclaimed in unison.

Aileen had no idea who this man was, but she knew he was nice.

"Well, it's not every day that your children turn eleven." The man replied. He then sat down on the couch, pulled out his umbrella, and held it in front of the fireplace.
