THE VANISHING GLASS

[The scar's glow immediately dies down, and the camera pans to see Harry who is now 10 years old, still sleeping. Then, the light turns on outside his bedroom cupboard under the stairs]

"Why isn't he sleeping in a normal bedroom?" Most adults asked.

Petunia: Up. Get up. [She knocks on his closet door repeatedly] Now! [Smacks door of closet and walks into the living room]

[Harry wakes up, turns on his bedroom light and puts on his glasses with tape on the bridge, indicating that it was partly damaged. A large, tubby boy, Dudley Dursley, suddenly comes running down the stairs above the closet. He stops half-way down and goes back, jumping on the staircase.]

"EW, IT'S THE LITTLE WALRUS BOY." Bex screamed, not even fully joking.

Dudley: Wake up, cousin! We're going to the zoo!
[Harry looks up to the join works of the stairs with small amounts of dusts rising. Dudley laughs, comes down the stairs and runs for the kitchen. Harry tries to come out of the closet, but is pushed back in by Dudley. Petunia is in the kitchen, where Dudley has gone.]

Petunia: Oh, here he comes, the birthday boy!

Vernon: Happy birthday, son.
[Petunia and Dudley giggle together. Harry comes into the kitchen, dressed in outgrown clothes.]

Petunia: [to Harry, unpleasantly] Why don't you just cook the breakfast, and try not to burn anything.

"He's a kid, why does he have to cook for you?"

Harry: Yes, Aunt Petunia.

[Harry then gets to work on cooking the bacon]

Petunia: I want everything to be perfect for my Dudley's special day.

Vernon: [to Harry, who is taking his time placing the bacon on the plates] Hurry up! Bring my coffee, boy!

Harry: Yes, Uncle Vernon.

[Petunia leads Dudley over to the family room, where there are a vast amount of presents. Dudley stares.]

Petunia: Aren't they wonderful, darling?

Dudley: How many are there?

Vernon: Thirty-six. Counted 'em myself.

"THIRTY-SIX?" Carina shouted, shocked.

Dudley: Thirty-six?!

"EXACTLY, THAT'S SO MANY THE FUCK." The Black girl was starting to scare some people.

-But last year last year I had thirty-seven!!

"We- We were apparently not thinking the same thing." Carina said while glaring at the boy on the screen.

Vernon: Err yes, well, some of them are quite a bit bigger than last year.
Dudley: I don't care how big they are!

"Little brat." Ginny muttered.

Petunia: [calming him down] Oh, now, now, now. This is what we're going to do, is that when we go out, we're going to buy you two new presents! How's that, pumpkin?

"THAT'S HORRIBLE PARENTING!" Molly and Lily both screamed.

[Outside the house morning. The happy family is heading to the car.]

Petunia: This will be a lovely day at the zoo. I'm really looking forward to it.

[Harry then goes to go in the car, but Vernon stops him, pointing his keys at him.]


"JUST LET HIM IN THE CAR." Sirius yelled at the screen, earning him some weird looks—seriously, others were doing the same just three seconds earlier.

Vernon: I'm warning you now, boy. Any funny business, any at all, and you won't have any meals for a week. Get in.

"Not feeding him is abuse." Lily couldn't believe how her sister and her sister's husband treated her kid.

[At the London Zoo. The family is in the reptile house, looking at a large Boa constructor.]

Dudley: Make it move.

[Vernon taps the glass of the cage.]

Vernon: Move!

[Dudley taps the glass much harder, and Vernon nervously winces.]

Dudley: MOVE!

Harry: He's asleep!

Dudley: He's boring.

"You're boring." Carina muttered, defended Harry and the snake.

[Dudley and his parents head over to another enclosure. Harry is left with the snake.]

Harry: Sorry about him. He doesn't understand what it's like, lying there day after day, having people press their ugly faces in on you. [The snake looks up and blinks.] Can you...hear me? [The snake nods] It's just...I've never talked to a snake before. Do you...I mean...do you talk to people often? [The snake shakes its head] You're from Burma, aren't you? Was it nice there, do you miss your family? [The snake turns its head in the direction of a sign which says, Bred in Captivity] I see. That's me as well. I never knew my parents, either.

[The now awake snake has attracted Dudley's attention. He comes over to the glass, knocking Harry to the floor.]

Dudley: Mommy, dad, come here! You won't believe what this snake is doing!

[Dudley puts his hands on the glass wall. With his back turned, Harry glares at him. Suddenly, the glass disappears, causing Dudley to wretch forward, losing his balance.]

Dudley: Whoa! Ahh! Ahh!!

[Dudley falls into the snake enclosure, sputtering in a pool of water. Harry snickers at what he saw. The snake gets out of the exhibit, stopping in front of Harry.]

Snake: Thanks.

"That snake has got amazing manners." Bex said impressed.

Harry: Anytime.

[The snake slivers off to the exit.]

Man: SNAKE!

[There is a lot of screaming as the snake heads for freedom. Dudley gets up to get out, but the glass is now back over the enclosure. Seeing that he is now trapped, he pounds the glass in panic.]

Dudley: Mom, mommy!

Petunia: [notices him in the exhibit] AHH!

Dudley: Mom, help! Help me!

Petunia: My darling boy! How did you get in there?! How did you get in there? Dudley, oh, Dudley!

[Harry grins and snickers, Vernon notices this and glares down at him. Harry's grin disappears, knowing that he is in trouble with Vernon.]

"DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH HIM, YOU OVERGROWN WALRUS!" Marlene McKinnon yelled at the screen, startling a few people close to her—she'd been so quiet.
