They were locked in their for 3 days and then they went to school.

When the school holidays started harry and emma were confined to the cupboard for three weeks when the school holidays started. A few days in though, Vernon begrudgingly let them out for meals after it became apparent the only way alternative was starving them to death.

After the summer though , things at school should get considerably better. Dudley was going to Vernon's old school "Smeltings"meaning that, the potters could be dudley free. However the downside was harry and emma were going to spend a year apart, the latter still having one more year of primary. But neither of them realized is that harry would never set foot in Stonewall High , the local secondary, nor would emma.

It started when a letter addressed to harry including the address line: "The Cupboard Under the Stairs", arrived towards the end of July. What was weird that ,despite protests from both Potters, Vernon confiscated the letter and burnt it, claiming it was addressed to harry by mistake.

"The letter was not sent to harry by mistake. It knew we lived in this cupboard." Said emma.

"IT WAS A MISTAKE" roared vernon, who had taken it upon himself to visit the two potters in the cupboard after the first letter has arrived, "Now listen, the two of you are a bit big for this cupboard now so Petunia and I thought it would be nice if you moved into Dudley's Second Bedroom."

But another letter arrived the following morning . This time it was addressed to harry again but this time it said "The smallest bedroom" as the precise location of the house.Harry, Dudley and Vernon got into a scuffle over the letter which resulted in harry and by extension emma being sent to their room.

"Is there something you're not telling me harry? Do you have a guardian angel or something?asked emma.

"Not that I know of, if either of us has guardian angels their not doing a very good job ." Said harry.

"I dont know. I think I my guardian angel does his best under very different circumstances."said emma.

"Who are you talking about."

"You! You idiot." Siad emma.

Harry smiles and pulled his sister into a hug." Your guardian angle I'ds definitely no good."

"Harry. Youa are a good angel."she admonished. She leant her head against his shoulder and softly said" I'll probably never be able to tell you how good you've been to me."

On the plus side of things though the next few days proved to be highly entertaining, as more and more letters tried to make their way to harry, though still wasn't able to get hold of one to read. Furthermore, vernon and petunia were acting most civil towards them.

"I still wish I had my letter." Siad harry after a nice, filling dinner one night.

"Me too ,but I can't remember the last time I was so full." Siad emma sadly.

The letters started finding new and more ingenious ways of trying to reach harry. First , after Vernon nailed th letter box shut, they started flying through open windows and under the front door and on Saturday they were rolled up inside two dozen eggs. However, things really got out of hand when on Sunday masses of letters started pouring into the living room via the chimney. Harry immediately leapt into the air to grab one , but he was tackled by his uncle who forced the letter from his hand. Emma also tried to grab a letter but petunia grabbed both of her wrists and held them above her head where she could see them.

"Right that's it. I want everyone to pack and meet at the bottom of the stairs I t en minutes! We're going away, far away. Where they can't find us" said vernon.
