My birthday is tomorrow and I will finally turn eleven! It's so exciting, since I was going to see my brother too. Unfortunately this Hagrid is going to pick me up at eleven thirty. In the night. Disturbing my sleep. Oh the heck with it! I'm just glad I finally get to meet my brother! Mindy and Rick were both shocked and really pleased at the same time. They were proud to have a witch in the family and finally they believed me. I don't know whether it was just my imagination, but they were acting a little strangely too. I mean, more than they usually do.
The time came when Hagrid was supposed to pick me up arrived. I felt nervous now. What if Harry didn't like me? There was three loud knocks at the door which made me fall to the ground and yell, "OH MY GOD- GUN - GUN!" Rick went to go check the door and apparently it was Hagrid. When I first imagined him I thought of a person who's like Dumbledore's size - NOT GIANT SIZE! He was truly massive. He had black, beetle-like eyes. However they were warm and caring, not the kind that made you think of dark tunnels. He wore a thick brown coat - and I cannot stress the fact that he is massive. Gigantic.
"Sorry ter frighten yeh Danielle," he grunted
"It's okay!" I said, now relieved it wasn't a gun.
"Right yer brother is currently in a grungy old hut," he said, checking his watch "Blimey - we'd better be going if we're getting yer things tomorrow."
We headed outside after saying goodbye to Rick and Mindy, and Hagrid made me sit on his motorbike - and still that was massive. But nothing compared to Hagrid mind you. I sat in silence, my nerves growing stronger my the minute. I stayed alert as the cold wind whipped my face and the heavy raindrops came down hard onto me. The thunder roared and lightning flashed. Good scene for a horror movie.
After what seemed like ages, we had finally got there. The hut, it turned out, was more miserable than I actually imagined. Hagrid knocked three times on the door, which I guaranteed would terrify any person inside. Hagrid knocked again, impatiently, knocking the door clean off it's hinges. I winced. If the door felt that, I'd feel ever so sorry for it. We walked in.
"Sorry 'bout that," he said, picking up the door and fitting it back into it's frame. I smiled at his awkward action. I caught sight of a boy with black hair and green eyes. He wore rounded glasses that were sellotaped together and his hair stuck up in random places.
"You!" we said simultaneously. "You know me?" We also said that simultaneously. We smiled at each other.
"I demand you to leave at once sir - you are breaking and entering!" roared a voice. I looked around to find Mr Dursley.
"Oh hey Mr Dursley - what up?" I said casually. He growled at me. I knew I had looked taken aback.
"Shut up Dursley - yer great prune," Hagrid growled, striding over, taking the gun and bending into a knot. He threw it into the corner, which made a horribly loud noise. Someone would have thought that gun was made out of rubber until it fell, that is. Dudley was scared enough and he squeaked. He jumped up and ran behind his mother, who I didn't notice until he did this. Hagrid sank into the sofa, making it groan. I went to sit next Harry. He smiled at me warmly.
"So you're Harry - you're my brother?" I said, excited
"You're my sister?" he said, completely taken aback.
I nodded and said, "You did know that didn't you?" He shook his head, looking truthful. "Well, I'm Danielle, but you can call me Dani. We're twins. Harry, how much don't you know?" He shrugged.
"I've got summat for you two," said Hagrid reaching into one of his many pockets "I might've sat on it at one point - but it'll taste alright." He took out a package and handed it to us. We opened it and inside was a chocolate cake coated with pink icing and in green was written: Happy Birthday! We smiled at Hagrid.
