Okay, this was originally titled "The Wish That Changed The Future" but I changed the title in the hopes that they won't get rid of it again.

Disclaimer: I do not own any portion of Harry Potter the only characters who are mine are Bethany, and Harmony.

Part Two

Chapter One: Owl Post

Harry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways. For one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of the year.

Sirius- (teasingly) Sounds like you, Remus

For another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night.

Remus- I wonder why.

Sirius- What? Why he wants to do his homework? Or why he has to do it in the dead of night?

James- Not everyone likes putting things off until five minutes before it is due, procrastinator boy.

Remus- Says the king of excuses for why he doesn't have his homework? (gets a pillow thrown at him)

And he also happened to be a wizard.

It was nearly midnight, and he was lying on his stomach in bed, the blankets drawn right over his head like a tent, a flashlight in one hand and a leather-bound book (A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot) propped open against the pillow. Harry moved the tip of his eagle-feather quill down the page, frowning as he looked for something that would help him write his essay, "Witch Burning in the Fourteenth Century Was Completely Pointless discuss."

Sirius- I remember that essay.

James- You should, that was the first essay we did together after you ran away from home. Oh, I'm sorry for bringing that up.

Sirius- That's okay, James. That is in the past and I'm glad to be out of that hell hole.

Remus- (read on to change the subject)

The quill paused at the top of a likely-looking paragraph. Harry pushed his round glasses up the bridge of his nos, moved his flashlight closer to the book and read:

Suddenly there was a loud crash from below as the door to James's house was thrust open. They heard his mom scream and his dad curse. Then there were two loud thuds and then an awful silence.
