The Order Of The Phanix

Chapter 2

Dan's POV

Harry Potter was standing in our living-room. Having just used floo powder to travel here. I honestly, in that moment, feel as though I'm about to vom-

'BLEURGH!'

Too late.

Phil just looks afraid. Nothing more or less than that. I'm not even sure he notices the fact that I've just barfed all over the floor.

'Guys, this is important,' Harry says, glancing over at my puke with a mixture of disgust and amusement on his face. But it also has an underlying tone of seriousness and urgency.

'I'm going to put a silencing curse on you just until I'm done. You can ask questions after,' he announces, aiming his wand at me. Too dumbstruck to even react, I watch the beam of light travel towards me, leaving my tongue stuck in my mouth. He then does the same to Phil, who looks shocked for a second but he recovers and turns his attention back towards Harry.

I'm wondering why I haven't questioned if it's the real Harry yet, but I think the answer is that it's way to surreal to be fake; at the same time it's way too surreal to be true. But I'm not dreaming, and there's nothing else wrong with me. So I come to the conclusion, how ever insane it is, that this must be real.

'There's no point beating around the bush,' Harry begins, looking slightly exasperated and fed up. 'You two are wizards.'

WORLD IMPLODES! THIS ISN'T REAL! PHIL AND I ARE NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS WITH NORMAL (ish) LIVES AND THERE IS NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT US! I can't even bring myself to look over at Phil, so I carry on staring at Harry, though it's hard when the room is spinning and swaying.

'Something happened to your files in the Ministry of Magic and for a long time it was believed they couldn't be recovered. But recently, as in yesterday, somebody found a way of getting them back. They reveal that, in fact, you two should have attended Hogwarts a long time ago.'

SO MUCH CONFUSION AND WORLD IMPLODING! I still can't look over at Phil; I know that if I do I'll probably pass out because then everything will be more true.

'But your files aren't the only things that have been recovered recently,' Harry continues ominously, a very serious and worried look appearing on his face. 'Lord Voldemort has made a rise to power once again.

And we need your help...'
