Chapter 1:Unexpected Happenings

It was the summer of my 6th year at Hogwarts and I was having a miserable summer, as always. It was late at night the day before my birthday and I was attempting to complete some of my summer assignments. It was a few minutes till midnight and something unexpected and unusual.

I yawned, but even though I was tired, I continued with my assignments. Just as it turned midnight on my alarm clock, I looked over at it. All of a sudden there was a load roar and everything went black. I sat there disoriented for what seemed like hours until everything came back into focus. I looked around and nothing looked different. I looked at the door expecting Uncle Vernon to come barging in after all the noise. When he didn't I decided to close my books, hid them, and went to bed.

I awoke with no one knocking on the door, no one yelling at me to get up, and just no one bugging me at all. I looked at my clock and it said it was 12:00am.

12:00pm!

I got up and stretched. What was going on? I got dressed quickly and went downstairs. The Dursleys were in the living room watching TV, and I decided to just walk in. I walked in and they all turned.

"Here," Uncle Vernon said a little scared tossing me the remote. They all left the room and I was left there puzzled.

A few days later, not even close to being used to the strange behavior and my hogwarts letter came. I was supposed to go to diagon alley myself, return myself, and get to the Hogwart Express myself.

What is wrong with the world? Something has to be wrong.

I decided I'd use the knight bus, so I got my want out that night and the next day I used the knight bus and went to diagon alley. When I got there I got all my supplies without really taking anything in and left as quickly as possible. How I got to the Hogwarts Express, I don't know. It was all a blur. When I got on the train, I looked around for Ron and Hermione, but didn't see them. I grabbed our usual seat and sat down, waiting for them to come. A little later they both came into the compartment. They both looked different, weird somehow, like they were enjoying something.

"Hey guys," I said smiling, "What's up?"

"Why are you so cheerful?" Hermione asked with a completely strait face.

"Yeah," Ron said, "you're acting really strange. I thought we where supposed to meet outside of the platform. And you're all cheerful. What the hell is wrong?"

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you guys."

"Whatever, let's just drop it," Hermione said sighing slightly.

"Oh guess what we did," Ron said.

"What I said?" I said.

"Well we ran into Malfoy on the way back here and he was all like I don't wanna start anything here, and we were all like well you should of avoided us at all costs than, and then we completely decimated him. It was awesome. It definitely would've been better if you had been there though." Hermione said smiling.

"What are you talking about Hermione? That doesn't sound like Malfoy at all. What the Hell is going on?"

Ron and Hermione exchanged worried glances.

"Are you alright Harry? Maybe you should go to the Hospital Wing when we get there. Or maybe you should have Professor Dumbledore check you out." Ron said slightly concerned.

"I need to walk around," I said and left before they could say anything or stop me.
