“Here’s your coffee Harry” Ginny said, sliding a white mug of coffee in front of Harry and giving him a kiss on the forehead before she sat down. Harry looked out the window for Hedwig to head in with the mail. The bird was getting really old and had lived longer then the regular lifespan for most snowy owls. Hedwig glided through the window, turning sideways like a jet so her wings would not hit the sides of the window. She dropped a daily prophet and a letter from Albus Seveus on the table.
Ginny grabbed the prophet and glanced over the front page. “Harry” she said, turning over the paper to show him “look at this, didn’t you use to live here?” He took the paper and read the headline and half of the article.
Attack on Muggle Born Wizards in Little Whinging Surry
A shocking attack took place yesterday on a group of muggle born wizards and witches. The attack came directly without warning leaving few survivors. Interviewed survivors say they were surprised someone wanted to attack them. Muggles and Muggle born’s have not received any discrimination since the fall of Lord Voldomort in Wizard War Two. This attack was believed to be the work of unknown dark wizards on the rise.
“Ha ha, I did use to live there” he said “that’s a strange coincidence”. He glanced up at Mrs Weasly’s old clock on the wall, it was time to get a move on. “See you later Ginny, I have to head out”.
Harry tried to avoid cutting through Diagon Ally as much as he could. Paparazzi and young witches and wizards would ogle at him and press for photos and autographs. He had grown used to it when he was a kid; but ever since he defeated Voldomort, he had become even more of a celebrity. Couldn’t they leave him alone for just once? A teenage boy nudged his father on the shoulder “Hey, is that Harry Potter?” he waved to Harry, who obligatorily waved back “let me get a picture to show my friends!” Harry posed good naturally for the photo, without making a fuss.
Harry walked to the end of Diagon Ally, where the telltale street sign marked the location of the designated sewage drain Harry was there to travel by. “Alohomora" he said, and the two bolts holding the grate down slowly began to unscrew themselves and fall to the ground. Harry knelt down as if he had dropped something and lifted up the grate, exposing a damp drain large enough to jump down. This one was scary, because the use had to jump right down into the hole without knowing how deep it was and with risk of hitting themselves on the ledge on the way down. Harry stood up and walked straight over the edge as if he was just going to keep on walking, the magic inside the drain took effect and Harry was transported to the ministry as if he were riding by portkey.
