July 13th, 2011

It was late evening right now and Harry can be seen up in the Dursley's attic cleaning happily. It was his last chore for the day and like always all his relatives were home like they were most of the time during the summer evening. Harry had been cleaning because the Dursleys wanted the whole house spotless every room had to be cleaned even the rooms guests never even entered. Harry had to work so hard today because tomorrow the Dursleys were going to be entertaining a potential big client that Vernon trying to sign with. When guests that are potential business clients or are Vernon bosses the Dursleys force Harry to clean a lot more around the house even making him do the rooms that the guests would not be seeing. Though Harry did not mind cleaning the attic in fact Harry quite enjoyed it. After all, it was quiet in the attic and Harry never had to worry about his relatives coming up to bother him. His uncle was too fat to get up the latter, his aunt Petunia did not like being up there, and his cousin Dudley like his father was too fat to get up the latter not to mention too lazy. 

This was why the attic was the only place in his relative's home where Harry did not have to hold his tongue. Harry was excited because, at the end of the month, it was his 11th birthday and for his birthday some of his programs were going to have a celebration for him like they do for others whose birthday come around and take part. This summer was the final year with the last of his programs that he is still part of and while he is sad he is glad he made it to the end. Though he did not make any friends in any of his programs he still had a lot of fun in them. Though he was sad he has no more programs after this summer which means he will have more free time unless Dudley joins more programs that will end up passing to Harry because he quits. However, Harry already has a plan for what he will do with his free time so he is not too worried. Harry continues to clean up the attic so he focuses on his task he does not see a dim glow behind him or notice a trunk appear on the other side of the attic that was not there before. Harry finished cleaning the last corner of cobwebs and dust when he felt a pull on the other side of the attic. Feeling drawn to the pull Harry slowly heads over to the corner that the pull comes from. When he reached there he saw a trunk that was not there before and on top of the trunk was an envelope with his name on it. Harry picks up the envelope opens it and pulls out an old paper that would best be described as parchment. When he pulled out the paper Harry unfolded it and was shocked to find out it was a letter from his parents.

Contents of Parents letter:

Dear Harry,

If you have gotten this letter and trunk then it means we passed away and you have been left in Petunia's care against our last wishes. If you are then that means we were right not to trust Dumbledore. If you do not know about magic then we fear his motives towards you. At the time we write this letter, we are at war with a dark lord calling himself Voldemort. There was a prophecy made though we were not sure if it was real or fake but because of the prophecy he is hunting for a child born the last week of July so we end up having to go into hiding under the Fidelus charm. However, before we went into hiding we along with your grandparents made this goodbye trunk. We did this because a friend of ours who could see visions had a vision you would be left with Petunia by Dumbledore so we chose to take precautions just in case. On the side are letters from both of us and your grandparents along with other things in the side. The center latch has a little thing that lets you switch to different compartments of the trunk. If Sirius and Remus are not in your life then we fear that the old goat meddled in your life more than we thought he would. Harry no matter what does not trust the man who goes by Albus Dumbledore. Do not worry about the trunk being able to be opened by others. It requires an exact magical signature that is linked to you. The trunk can be enlarged and shrunk down and has a feather-weight charm. To enlarge tap the top of the trunk thrice to shrink just tap twice.  Harry know that we love you with all our hearts please be safe and know we are proud of you no matter what.
