Chapter 10
The giant man walked in an sat down on the couch, making himself at home.
He looked towards the Dursley's with disdain in his eyes.
But as soon as he saw me and Harry, his gaze softened and a light smile crossed his face.
"You two must be Harry an' Sirius, its a pleasure ta meet ya both" he said as he started to pull things out of the many pockets of his jacket.
He pulled out a small tripod-like stand, a small hot plate, a small bag with some sausages in it, a plate, some forks and a series of other things.
All the while Hagrid was working the Dursley' looked at him in fear, Dudley on the other hand was obviously tempted by the smell of the sausages.
"Now... My name is Hagrid, keeper of keys and grounds at hogwarts, I think it would be terribly rude of me if I sat here and didn't tell ya me name" Harris said, passing me and Harry a sausage to eat.
Harry and I scarfed them down.
I stepped towards Hagrid and held out my hand to shake his.
"You obviously know my brothers and my name, but I feel it would be equally as rude if we didn't give a proper introduction" he took my und I to a hardy shake.
"My name is Sirius Charlus Potter, this-" I said gesturing to Harry, who had started to step closer "- is my twin Harry" I finished
Harry was snow next to me, he too raised his hand and shook Hagrid's meaty hand, which was about three times the size of Harrys hand and my hand.
Suddenly, as I gaining an immense amount of courage, something that should have been practically impossible for the scared witless Vernon, he started to demand that Hagrid vacate the premises immediately.
Hagrid, obviously not wanting to deal with this, stood up and towered over Vernon, all of his courage gone in an instant as Hagrid stepped towards him.
"Dry up Dursley, you great prune" said Hagrid, while giving a mean and disgusted look towards Uncle Vernon, who shrank back behind the huddled Petunia and Dudley.
Having dealt with that, at least do the moment, Hagrid started to rummaging around in the pockets of his coat, trying to find something.
After a minute of searching, he pulled out two envelopes.
Each was made out of thick yellow paper and had glistening green words scribbled onto the front.
Uncle Vernon tried to object, but one looked from Hagrid, instantly made him shut up.
As Harry and I opened letters, I quickly read through there entire of the first an second pages of the letter.

I looked at Harry in 'Disbelief' and then at hagrid.
"Is this real?" both Harry and I asked Hagrid.
Hagrid looked confused for a second, but then a look apof both realisation and rage crosses this face.
Hagrid did what happened in the books.
He yelled.
He accused.
And he threatened to turn the Dursley's into toad and cook them.
(A/N: this didn't actually happen in either the book or the movie, but I'm just saying it did because it's funny)
Then once again, Uncle Vernon seemed to gain a monstrous amount of courage.
"He will not be going! We swore that when we took him in, We'd stamp out this nonsense! And further more, I will not be paying to have some old Coot, teach him magic tricks!!" Version Yelled.
It was then Hagrids face darkened.
He stepped forward, an oppressive aura seems to radiant from him as he spoke.
"Don't 'Ever' insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me" Hagrid also seemed to notice something out I the corner of his eye, as he pointed his umbrella towards where he was sitting and a small bolt of magic burst forth and hit Dudley, hpwho had snuck off and started eating the rest of the sausages.
Once it did hit, a small pigs tail sprung forth ripping a small hole in Dudley's pants where it poked out.
While the Dursley's were freaking out about the pig tail, Petunia crying outin shock and fear while Vernon started to demand Hagrid undo it, Hagrid ignored them and looked towards Harry and Me.
"Well, We'd best be off now" he said as he led Harry and I out of the house and into the boat that he came in.
