Explanations

Dumbledore looked up to see a furious James storming up to his desk, his son Harry in tow. He threw the crushed letter at Dumbledore who caught it in air with a flick of his wand. Another flick and the crumpled paper was all straightened. Dumbledore's eyebrows rose to his hairline as he read the letter.

"Well?" James asked impatiently.

"I'm afraid this is out of my control." Dumbledore explained calmly while James blew up. "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN? YOU BLOODY WROTE THE LETTER!".

"Sit down James! And you too Harry, we'll have everything cleared up in a moment." Dumbledore's had stood up and was reflecting an aura of power and authority. Harry was awed by the power that Dumbledore showed. It was nothing short of wonderful, but he, Harry would never be able to come close, no matter how much he tried, after all...he had no magic.

"As you know, that babies are signed up for Hogwarts, when they are born. And Harry was born a wizard like any. And even after the magical transfer, transferring all of Harry's magic to John, i think Hogwarts still recognizes him as a student. Which is why the automated invitation letter." Dumbledore said after sitting down. By the looks on James' and Harry's faces, he could tell that he had said something wrong.

Harry's face was showing pure and utter shock. While James looked uneasy, glancing towards his son. Dumbledore, immediately recognized his fault, but could not at this moment, do anything to solve the situation.

Harry turned his face towards James, an accusing look in his eyes. "Why?" he asked, his voice heavy with emotion. All of his finally built up wall against magic had finally come crashing down. His magic was now running through John. His Magic!

James turned his face towards Dumbledore not able to look Harry in the face. "Albus, could we obliviate him?" But Dumbledore shook his head, "He's too young, it could cause everlasting damage."

"Look Harry, let me explain. John was dying and he needed your magic to keep him alive. And believe me son, to us, both of your lives are far more important." James tried to explain missing the raised eyebrows of Dumbledore, but unknown to both of them, Harry didn't miss it.

Harry promised himself that he would get to the bottom of this. He would find out what this magical transfer was all about. And what the hell was obliviate? Whatever it was, he knew he couldn't rest without knowing what it was. But despite himself, Harry just nodded at his father.

James smiled at Harry and nodded back before turning back to Dumbledore. "I'm sure you'll take care of everything Dumbledore? I hope we don't have to bring him back here." James said as if that cleared the matter up.

"You are mistaken once again James. Hogwarts has a set of rules in place. Once a student has set foot in Hogwarts, he will have to come back unless he himself does not want to. I would be removed from the headmaster post by Hogwarts herself if I don't do anything in my power to make sure he attends. But that could all stop if the student himself is unwilling."

James' face turned from disapointment to anger to hope as he turned towards Harry. "Harry, you don't want to go do you? We'll have you attend the best college or Univasity or whatever if you reject your offer to go to Hogwarts."

Harry couldn't believe what he was hearing, he would actually be able to attend Hogwarts. It doesn't matter if he couldn't do magic, he was going to attend Hogwarts! He didn't even consider what his father was saying before yelling out "I want to go!"
