Iris’s P.O.V
After we managed to make it to the lighthouse, both Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia had taken the bed as Dudley took the couch and as Harry and I were lying on the ground, I helped him draw a birthday cake in the dirt on the ground before we noticed Dudley’s watch hit midnight, “make a wish.” We said before we blew out the candles we made from the dust, “Happy birthday Harry.” I said to him, “Happy Birthday Iris.” he said before something was baning on the door before Harry and I quickly got up as the both of us before we heard the door fall on the ground before hearing someone walk in before hearing them speak up, “sorry about that.” they said as we heard them put the door back, “I command that you leave here at once. You are breaking and entering.” Uncle Vernon said to them, “dry up Dursley you great prune.” The man said to Uncle Vernon before the gun fired, “boy, I haven’t seen you and your sister since the both of you were babies, Harry, but you’re a bit more along than I would have expected. Particularly right in the middle.” the man said to Dudley, “I’m not Harry.” Dudley told him before Harry and I came out of hiding, “I am.” Harry told him, “Well of course you are and nice to see you, Iris. I’ve got something for the both of you. I'm afraid I might have sat on it at some point but I Imagine it tastes just the same.” the man said to us as he handed us a box, “baked it myself, words and all.” he told us before Harry started to open it before we saw that it was a cake, “thank you” both Harry and I said to him, “it’s not everyday your young man and lady turns 11 now is it.” he said to us before he sat down before he relit the fire and my eyes went wide, “Awesome” I said before Harry spoke up, “excuse me, who are you?” Harry asked him, “Rubeus Hagrid. Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts. Of course the both of you would know all about Hogwarts.” he said to us, “sorry, no.” Harry told him, “no? Blimey Harry and Iris, didn’t either one of you wonder where your mum and dad learned it all?” Rubeus asked us, “learn what?” I asked him, “you’re a Witch and Wizard Harry and Iris.” Rubeus said to us, “we're what?” Harry asked him, “A Witch and Wizard and thumping good ones I wager. Once you've trained up a little.” Rubeus said to us, “no, you’ve made a mistake, I mean, we can’t be a Witch and Wizard. I mean, we’re just Harry and Iris. just Harry and Iris.” Harry told him, “yeah, we’re pretty much nobody.” I said to him, “well just Harry and Iris, did either of you make anything happen, anything you couldn’t explain when you were angry or scared?” Rubeus asked us before he eventually stood up and gave us the letters we’ve been getting before we opened them, “Dear Mr. Potter, we are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry.” Harry read out, “mine says the same thing.” I said to them, “they will not be going. We swore when we took them in we would put a stop to this rubbish.” Uncle Vernon said, “Are you serious?” I said to him, “you knew? You knew all along and you never told us?” Harry asked them, “of course we knew. How could you not be? My perfect sister being who she was. My mother and father were so proud the day she got her letter. We have a Witch in the family, isn’t it wonderful? I was the only one to see her for what she was, a freak. And then she met that Potter and then she had the both of you and I knew the both of you would be the same, just as strange, just as abnormal and then if you please, she went and got herself blown up and we got landed with the two of you.” Aunt Petunia said to us, “blown up?” Harry questioned, “you told us our parents died in a car crash.” I said to her, “a car crash? A car crash killed Lily and James Potter?” Rubeus questioned, “we had to say something.” Aunt Petunia said to him, “it’s an outrage. It’s a scandal” Rubeus said to them, “they will not be going.” Uncle Vernon said to him, “then I suppose a great Muggle like yourself is going to stop them are you?” Rubeus said to him, “Muggle?” Harry and I questioned, “non magic folk. These two had their names down ever since they were born. They are going to the finest school of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the world and they will be under the finest Headmaster that Hogwarts has ever seen, Albus Dumbledore.” Rubeus said to them, “I will not pay to have some crackpot old fool teach them magic tricks.” Uncle Vernon said to him, “never insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me.” Rubeus said before he had given Dudley a pig's tail and I began to laugh at it, “oh um, I’d appreciate it if either one of you didn’t tell anyone at Hogwarts about that. Strictly speaking I’m not allowed to do magic” he said to us and I nodded before he checked the time, “we're behind schedule best be off.” he said to us before he walked to the door and put it back on the ground, “unless the both of you would rather stay of course.” he said to us before Harry and I looked at each other before going with him
