You’re A Wizard

With their home literally bombarded by thousands upon thousands of letters, the Dursleys quickly packed their bags, loaded into their car, and drove off at high speed. Eventually, Vernon pulled the car to a screeching halt and silently ushered everyone onto the one boat along the shore. By the time they sailed off, Twilight and the others came running up alongside the car. Skidding to a halt, the whole group breathed quite heavily.

“Sweet Celestia!” Applejack gasped. “Could he have possibly been goin’ any faster?”

“Twi… why didn’t you just… magic us… to where they’re going?” Rainbow asked, between breaths.

“Because… I had absolutely no idea where they were going!” Twilight wheezed. “… How could I teleport us?”

“Better reminds us to run more laps when we get back to Equestria,” Sandbar said, breathless. “Phew… I’m out of shape…”

“… Nah, you’re pretty much the same…” Gallus remarked.

The group began to walk towards the shore, noticing the Dursleys, along with Harry, already parked the boat alongside the show of a tiny rocky island, where an old rustic shack nestled on it.

“Looks like we’re going to have to follow them out there,” Twilight observed.

“But they took the only boat, darling,” Rarity pointed out. “And in case you haven’t noticed, a majority of us don’t have wings to fly over there. And I for one absolutely have no intention of swimming… don’t want to get my mane wet.”

Rolling her eyes, Twilight powered up her horn and in one brief flash of light the entire group teleported across the water. Seconds later, they find themselves standing along the rocky shore. Everyone shook off the effects from the teleportation, especially Gallus who hated it badly.

“You know Headmistress Twilight… a little warning wouldn’t be bad if it’s not too much trouble,” He complained, checking himself.

“Every time we go through that, I always get a headache!” Smolder moaned, clutching her head.

“I kind of hoped I’d take my other form and just swam here,” Silverstream spoke. “Would’ve been so much fun to see other sea creatures from this world.”

“No sweat, Silver!” Pinkie replied, cheerfully. “If the writers like your development, maybe they’ll book you for a movie that allows you to see sea creatures from other worlds.”

While Silverstream turned excitedly towards Pinkie Pie, the other students faced her with confusion. Spike silently gestured with a wave of his claw under his chin, mouthing ‘Don’t ask’ behind Pinkie Pie. Eventually, having straightened out, they all turned toward the old shack.

The shack itself was completely rotten, it’s boards falling apart. Why Vernon Dursley would drag his whole family all the way out here and stay in such a crumbling heap was beyond any of them.

“What a dump!” Spike remarked.

“My hive looks better than this place!” Ocellus added.

Everyone nodded in agreement, as they quickly hurried inside. In the shack, the entire group took a good hard look around hoping what they’d see was better than the outside. But there’s no mistaking the sight before their eyes: the house was dark as it was cold, an old moth-eaten couch sat in the downstairs area, and an old lumpy mattress upstairs. A deep whiff of air made the team cover their noses and cringe their faces.

“Smell like father’s turnip garden!” Yona said.

Hearing the door open, Harry turned around and saw his friends all entering the shack together. Quickly, the boy approached them.

“How did you guys get here so fast?” He asked curiously.

“We ran pretty far just to keep up… really fast,” Spike stated. “Still catching my breath from all of that.”

“What are you complaining about?” Twilight snickered. “You sat on my back the entire time while I did all the running.”

“Hey! That was hard on me too!” Spike chuckled. “You ever notice your back gets super-sweaty when you run?”

Twilight and Harry both laughed a bit, but quickly stopped when Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia walked downstairs with a few old blankets in their hands.

“It appears there’s only one bed upstairs,” Petunia announced. “Vernon and I will take the bed; Dudley can sleep on the couch… and you boy can sleep on the floor.”

The group of creatures stared at the cold dirty floor, then back at Petunia and Vernon. The unbelievable looks on their faces were clear as day.

“They cannot be serious!” Rarity said, deadpanned.

“It could be worse!” Pinkie said enthusiastically.

How could it be much worse?” Smolder asked.

“It could be raining…”

<>

Few hours after those words were uttered, a massive storm swept through the area. Lighting lit up the sky, the thunder rumbled loudly, the rain fell in massive amounts, and the waves crashed against the rocky shores of the island. By this point, it was very late and the Dursleys were all asleep. The only ones actually awake were Harry and his Equestria companions. Many of them shivered because it was such a cold night, the storm outside made it much worse.

’It could be worse’ she said,” Smolder muttered. “’It could be raining…’ she said… brother!”

Amongst the group, Fluttershy curled up into a little ball trying to insulate as much heat as possible.

“S-S-S-So c-c-cold,” She shivered.

Rarity tried as best she could to comfort her meek little friend. But it was tricky, seeing as there was no heat. All she could do was place a hoof around her trying to ease her.

“Don’t you worry darling,” She said comfortingly. “It’ll be alright. Spike! Smolder! Is there any way you two could light a fire?”

“We could if this fireplace had wood in it,” Smolder replied.

“Why ponies so cold?” Yona asked. “Back home, winters worse than this. Yak no have trouble with cold.”

“Yaks are built for cold weather Yona,” Applejack pointed out. “We ponies ain’t built a natural immunity like y’all.”

While discussing this, Harry laid upon his stomach along the dirt ground drawing himself a birthday cake in the dirt. Pinkie and Twilight sat silently alongside him, watching and feeling sad for him. Earlier that day, Harry told them it was his birthday tomorrow (Which was only moments away). When they asked why he didn’t seem all too excited about it, he told them he never had a real birthday before. This of course made Pinkie extremely sad, for birthday parties were her specialty. To hear that Harry never had one before… it’s the most upsetting she ever felt in her life.

“We’re really sorry you’ve never had a real birthday Harry,” Twilight said sadly.

“Yeah…” Pinkie nodded sadly. “Birthday parties are some of the most funstastic… the greatest things to look forward to…”

Harry nodded toward the two ponies, with a half-hearted smile.

“Thank you, but I’ve grown quite used to it,” He said dejectedly.

After finishing his ‘cake’, Harry turned toward Dudley’s wristwatch. It beeped when the clock struck twelve and it was now officially his birthday.

“Make a wish Harry,” He said to himself.

He blew the dirt birthday candles, while slumping against the ground with a huge frown on his face. Though he was clearly upset, Pinkie was determined to put a smile on Harry’s face.

“Aww come on Harry,” Pinkie urged, smiling. “Let’s turn that frown upside down.”

Pinkie reached into her mane, pulled out a party hat, and placed it upon Harry’s head. She puts a hat onto her head and Twilight’s as well. She then pulled out her party cannon and blew confetti all over Harry. Now normally most ponies would laugh and smile at this, but poor Harry just laid there.

“Thank you for trying Pinkie, but I really don’t see what I have to smile about.”

“Well… you can smile at the fact you’ve got a new group of friends,” Pinkie said happily. “And we’re all sharing an adventure together… a ‘Cinematic Adventure’ if you will.”

Harry and Twilight faced her in a weird way, showcasing their obvious confusion. After a moment, Harry sighed and slumped back onto the floor.

“Not all that much of an adventure though,” Harry sighed.

Twilight placed a hoof upon Harry’s arm, trying her best to put a smile on his face.

“Don’t worry Harry,” she assured. “If a couple years have taught me anything, an awesome adventure is sure to come knocking when you least expect it.”

“Hey, ‘awesome’ is my word!” Rainbow whined.

All of a sudden, a loud bang crashed upon the door. Every creature jumped up with a yelp, Harry and Dudley’s heads snapped instantly. Another bang quickly followed, as Harry leapt onto his feet and hid behind the fireplace while Dudley retreated as far back as he could.

“Every creature with me!” Twilight commanded.

The rest of the Mane Six, Spike, and the Student Six gathered around Twilight in a defensive stance, ready to defend against whatever was pounding against the door. It was at that moment Vernon and Petunia came down the stairs. Petunia switched on the light as Vernon aimed a shotgun at the door.

“Who’s there?” Vernon squeaked fearfully.

The next bang was so powerful it knocked the door completely off its hinges and fell with a loud thud. Everyone screamed as a large figure loomed through the opening. It was so dark that it was difficult to see at first. After a moment, the figure came into the light revealing itself as none other than Rubeus Hagrid.

“Sorry ‘bout that,” He apologized calmly.

He walked over toward the door, picking it off the ground with ease and placed it back in place. Vernon shook as he pointed the gun at the giant man, trying to look as intimidating as possible.

“I demand that you leave at once sir!” He growled. “You are breaking and entering!”

Hagrid, completely unfazed by the shotgun aimed at him, just walked toward the very frightened Dursleys.

“Dry up Dursley, you great prune!”

He grabbed the barrel of the shotgun, easily bending it like a bendy straw. The gun went off with a ‘BAM!’ creating a huge hole in the ceiling. Everyone gasped over the loud explosion, as Hagrid turned away and took notice of the group of creatures. The minute his eyes laid upon them, a huge smile grew on his face.

“Well blow me down!” He chuckled. “If it ain’t lil Twilight Sparkle!”

Hearing the giant man say her name, Twilight’s face went from defensive to amazement.

“You know my name?” She asked.

Hagrid eagerly nodded with a smile.

“Jus’ as aye know the rest of yer friends ‘ere,” He said. “Ye got yer self, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Rarity, Fluttershy, and Pinkie Pie.”

“Ahem!”

The huge man looked down toward the little dragon sitting on Twilight’s back, his arms crossed. Hagrid chuckled deeply and patted Spike on the head fins.

“And ah course ay can’t ferget bout lil Spike ‘ere. Or the rest ah yer students.”

“Who the Devil are you talking to?” Vernon asked terrified.

“Shut it Dursley!” Hagrid snapped.

Twilight flew up and placed a hoof on Hagrid’s huge shoulder, shaking her head. Hagrid looked between the Dursleys and Twilight, contemplating yet nodded toward Twilight in the end. Twilight turned toward the others, nodding her head as they all nodded back. Lighting her horn, Twilight sent a spell throughout their bodies.

The Dursleys gasped loudly, for no longer were the ponies and other creatures invisible to them. The ponies and other creatures approached the Dursleys, very angrily.

“What the bloody hell?!” Vernon gasped.

“Colorful ponies…” Petunia spoke silently. “And… whatever they are… standing in our shack!”

“And we talk too!” Rainbow added.

“How dare y’all do those things tah poor Harry?!” Applejack shouted.

“You are supposed to be his loving, caring family!” Rarity said sternly. “Yet we’ve lived with you all for weeks and all we’ve seen is how terribly you treat him!”

“Yona smash them now?!” Yona growled, bashing her hooves together.

Sandbar placed a hoof on Yona’s side, as the young bovine faced the pony. Sandbar merely shook his head, while Yona gave the Dursleys a death glare before calming down with a deep breath.

“You mean to say we’ve been sharing our home for the past few weeks with four-legged, walking, talking freaks?” Vernon asked.

“FREAKS?!”

Hearing this, Rainbow finally had enough.

“Alright, that tears it!” She growled.

She flew towards Vernon with every intention of knocking him senseless, but found herself stopped as Applejack, Fluttershy, and practically every other creature held her by the tail.

“LET ME AT HIM!” She screamed. “LET ME AT HIM! I’M GONNA GIVE THE FAT MAN A PIECE OF MY MIND!!!”

“FAT MAN?!” Vernon barked.

Finally, the group pulled the angry Pegasus down to the ground. They held her as she thrashed about trying to break free.

“Calm down, sugar cube!” Applejack said.

“He insulted us!” Rainbow yelled. “He’s made Harry’s life miserable! He’s getting decked in the face one way or another!”

“That won’t solve nothin’ Rainbow. That’ll just cause more problems than it’s worth.”

Rainbow thrashed for a few moments, before eventually calming down enough so the others can get her off the ground. Fluttershy flew up before the Dursleys, staring at them with a mix of regret and anger.

“I am so sorry about Rainbow Dash,” She apologized. “But I have to agree with her. Please excuse my language, but the way you’ve been treating Harry just gets me so… so… PEEVED!”

She instantly threw her hooves up over her mouth, floating down before the rest of her friends. Soon as the fiasco settled, Hagrid turned his attention to Dudley, the boy still cowering against the wall.

“Boy, aye haven’t seen ye since you was a baby, Harry. But yer a bit a more along than aye would have expected. Particularly ‘round the middle!”

Rainbow, Spike, and the Student Six snorted in laughter.

“I-I-I’m not Harry,” Dudley stuttered.

At that moment, Harry came out from behind the fireplace and faced the burly man.

“I-I am,” He said nervously.

“Oh, well, of course you are!” Hagrid smiled, pulling out a box. “Got something for ya. ‘Fraid I might have sat on it at some point! Aye imagine that it’ll taste fine just the same. Baked it myself words and all.”

Hagrid hands the box towards Harry, as everyone around the room looked on curiously. Opening the lid, Harry discovers a cake covered in pink frosting. Written at the top of the cake, the words read ‘Happee Birdae Harry’ in green frosting.

“Thank you!” Harry smiled.

“It’s not every day that your young man turns eleven, now is it?” Hagrid replied.

As the whole group admires the cake, Hagrid took a sit along the sofa. He takes out an umbrella from his coat and points it at the empty fireplace. Two sparks ignite and a fire immediately starts, as the family and everyone else gasped in surprise.

“Whoo!” Gallus whistled. “I could use one of those!”

“Excuse me,” Harry spoke, putting the cake down. “Who are you?”

“Rubeus Hagrid,” The man introduced himself. “Keeper of keys and grounds at Hogwarts. Course, you’ll know all about Hogwarts.”

“Sorry, no,” Harry shook.

“No? Blimey, Harry, didn’t you ever wonder where you mum and dad learned it all?”

“Learned what?”

“You’re a wizard, Harry.”

Harry’s eyes widened in shock, his face showing complete confusion.

“I-I’m a what?” Harry gasped.

Deciding to join in the conversation, Twilight herself stepped forward.

“It’s true Harry,” She nodded. “We’ve wanted to tell you since the day we first met. Actually, that’s the whole reason we were sent here to help you.”

Harry faced Twilight and the others.

“What do you mean?” He asked.

Twilight and the others faced each other, feeling a slight ashamed before facing Harry again.

“Sometime ago, we were sent here from our land of Equestria to protect you. We swore to absolute secrecy by our rulers, Princess Celestia and Princess Luna, not to tell you you’re a wizard until your eleventh birthday. We were going to tell you, but Hagrid beat us to it.”

“That’s right Harry,” Hagrid agreed. “Yer a wizard. And a thumping good one, I’d wager. Once you train up a little.”

“No, you’ve made a mistake,” Harry objected. “I can’t be… a-a wizard. I mean, I’m just… Harry. Just Harry.”

“Well, ‘Just’ Harry. Did you ever make anything happen?” Hagrid inquired. “Anything you couldn’t explain when you were angry or scared?”

“Like what happened at the zoo?” Pinkie reminded.

Harry’s face softened, for he knew exactly what they were getting on about. Silence filled the cold shack, except for Dudley’s whimpering. Eventually, Hagrid hands Harry the very same letter that had been sent to him the past while. Finally, Harry opened the envelope and read the letter inside.

Dear, Mr. Potter,” Harry read. “We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts’ School of Witchcraft and Wizardy.

“He’ll not be going!” Vernon confronted Hagrid. “We swore when we took him in, we’d put a stop to this rubbish!”

“You knew?” Harry spoke, angrily. “You knew all along and you never told me?”

“Of course we knew,” Petunia spoke. “How could you not be? My ‘perfect’ sister being who she was. Oh, 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!”

Rainbow’s hoof tensed at that mention again, but Applejack and Twilight held her back.

“And then she met that Potter,” Petunia continued, walking around. “And then she had you, and I knew you’d be just 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 you.”

“Blown up?” Harry spoke angrily. “You told me my parents died in a car crash!”

“A car crash?” Hagrid asked. “A car crash kill Lily and James Potter?”

“We had to tell him something,” Petunia spoke, defensively.

“It’s an outrage!”

“It’s a scandal!” Rarity added.

As the Dursleys argue with Hagrid, no one, not Harry or his friends, noticed Dudley taking Harry’s cake away.

“He’ll not be going!” Vernon insisted.

“Oh, and I suppose a great muggle like yourself’s going to stop him, are you?” Hagrid asked.

“Muggle?” Harry asked, confused.

“Apparently, it’s a word to describe ‘non-magic’ folk,” Twilight explained. “Seems to be a ton of those in this realm.”

“The little lass is right Harry,” Hagrid confirmed, facing the Dursleys angrily. “This boy’s had his name down ever since he was born!”

As Hagrid spoke, Dudley munched on Harry’s cake messily.

“He’s going to the finest school of witchcraft and wizardry in the world, and he’ll be under the finest headmaster that Hogwarts has ever seen: Albus Dumbledore.”

Albus Dumbledore,” The Equestrians repeated, in unison.

Harry smiled upon hearing Dumbledore’s name.

“I will not pay for some crackpot old fool to teach him magic tricks!” Vernon snapped.

Twilight and her friends gasped over Vernon’s words, turning toward Hagrid worriedly. Hagrid whipped out his umbrella, pointing it at Vernon threateningly.

“Never insult Albus Dumbledore in front of me,” Hagrid warned.

Hagrid finally spotted Dudley eating Harry’s cake. Just as he was about to aim his umbrella toward him, Rarity held up her hoof which caused Hagrid to pause.

“Forgive me dear Hagrid,” Rarity said politely. “But I do believe that this requires a bit more of an… ‘Equestrian’ touch.”

Hagrid smirked, nodding his head before placing his umbrella back in his coat. Rarity turned toward Dudley, who was still stuffing his face.

“You know something Dudley,” Rarity smiled mischievously. “I think it’s about time your insides start to reflect on your ‘outer’ form.”

She lights her horn, firing a magic spark toward Dudley’s backside, causing a pink pig’s tail to sprout. The Dursleys shriek in both fright and horror, running off out of sight. Harry laughs at this, along with the rest of the group. Rainbow trotted beside Rarity, who whipped her mane back dramatically.

“Nice going there Rares,” Rainbow complimented. “I didn’t know you had it in you.”

“Oh believe me darling, I’m not usually one to indulge in childish antics,” Rarity said. “But when someone such as him deserves it, the best prank is to bring out their true selves.”

The two mares smiled, hoof bumping as they faced Hagrid.

“Now that was a right good one there Rarity,” He chuckled. “Also probably best that ye were the one to do that. Strictly speaking, I’m not allowed to do magic.”

“Why not?” Twilight asked curiously.

“Long story,” Hagrid stated simply. “Let’s not even bother with that one for right now. We’re a bit behind schedule. Best be off.”

Hagrid goes off toward the door, pulling it down again before stepping out. He slowly turned toward Harry.

“Unless you’d rather stay, of course. Hmm?”

As Hagrid walked out, the Equestrians turned toward Harry who was pondering his choices. Twilight Sparkle soon stepped up toward the boy.

“Remember what I said about adventure knocking at your door?” Twilight reminded. “Speaking from experience, I’d take this opportunity while it’s still available.”

Harry grinned, as he turned back toward the direction where the Dursleys have gone. Realizing that his friends are right, he grabbed his jacket and followed his friends as they set forth to join Hagrid on their journey to the heart of London itself.
