Puecy couldn't believe his eyes when he saw that Harry and Ron were still at Hogwarts the next day, looking
tired but perfectly cheerful. Indeed, by the next morning, Harry and Ron thought that meeting the three-headed dog had been an excellent adventure, and they were quite keen to have another one.

In the meantime, Harry filled Ron and Draco in about the package that seemed to have been moved from Gringotts to Hogwarts, and they spent a lot of time wondering what could need such heavy protection.

"It's either really valuable or really dangerous," said Ron. "Or both," said Harry remembering Annabeth's words. But as all they knew for sure about the mysterious object was
that it was about two inches long, they didn't have much chance of
guessing what it was without further clues.

Neither Neville nor Hermione showed the slightest interest in what lay underneath the dog and the trapdoor. All Neville cared about never going near the dog again. Hermione was now refusing to speak to Harry and Ron, but she
was such a bossy know-it-all that they saw this as a bonus.

All they wanted now was a way of getting back at Puecy, and
to their great delight, just such a thing arrived in the mail about a
week later when Harry was hanging out the the Hufflepuff common room talking to his dorm mates everyone's attention was caught at once by a long, thin package carried by six large screech owls. Harry was just as interested as everyone else to
see what was in this large parcel and was amazed when the owls
soared down and dropped it right in front of him. They had hardly fluttered out of the way when an-
other owl dropped a letter on top of the parcel. Harry ripped open the red letter first, which was wrong because it turned into a mouth tossing black and yellow confetti:

" HARRY POTTER! I AM SO PROUD OF YOU!!!" Harry covered his ears when he heard his uncle Reggie shouting which grabbed everyone's attention " FIRST YEAR SEEKER IN A CENTURY!! THAT IS AMAZING! I AM HAPPY FOR YOU!What ... no... honey... Annie...wait put the book down"

They heard a scream and then Harry heard uncle nico voice." Hey congrats Harry, your uncle is in trouble with your aunt Also don't open the parcel Uncle Leo sent you unless you are 5 feet away. We are all coming to your first ga...." he gets cur of by regulus yelling.

" YOU MIGHT NOT BE A SLYTHERIN BUT YOU MADE ME SO DAMN PROUD QUIDDITCH PLAYER! ENJOY THE BROOM!! OW ANNIE" The letter tore itself up

Harry opened the parcel and gasped seeing the broom Nimbus Two Thousand. He immediately got excited and ran off to find Ron and Draco who were glaring at each other. "GUYS GUYS LOOK AT WHAT I HAVE!!" Harry said showing them the broom

"A Nimbus Two Thousand!" Ron moaned enviously seeing the broom in his hand. "I've never even touched one." Before Harry could let Ron touch it, Puecy seized the package from Harry and looked at it angrily.

"This is a broomstick," he said, throwing it back to Harry with a
mixture of jealousy and spite on his face. "You'll be in for it this time, Potter, first years aren't allowed them." Draco couldn't resist it. "It's not any old broomstick," he said, "it's a Nimbus Two Thousand. What did you say you've got at home, Pucey, a Comet Two Sixty?" Ron said as he grinned at Harry. "Comets look flashy, but they're not in the same league as the Nimbus."

"What would you know about it, Weasley, you couldn't afford
half the handle," Puecy snapped back. "I suppose you and your brothers have to save up twig by twig." Before Ron could answer, Professor Flitwick appeared at Malfoy's elbow.

"Not arguing, I hope, boys?" he squeaked. "Potter has been sent a broomstick, Professor," said Puecy quickly. "Yes, yes, that's right," said Professor Flitwick, beaming at Harry. "Professor McGonagall and Sprout told me all about the special circumstances, Potter. And what model is it?"
