Harry Potter year 2

Alright, welcome to the 2nd year of Harry Potter's adventure! Some like this book/movie better then the 1st. Personally I like the 2nd better then the 1st but hey thats just me. Anyways here we are in the beginning of the 2nd book. Harry is sitting once again in his aunt and uncle's house on Private Drive. By the way the main characters stay the same from here to the last book, but obviously Professor Quirrell is not in this book anymore, considering that he is dead. But a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is in his stead, his name is Gilderoy Lockhart, he is full of himself. He thinks he is the most famous and beautiful person around. We'll look into him more through out the book. Anyway, back to the story, Harry's uncle Vernon locked all of Harry's school stuff in the closet under the stairs, and since underage wizards are not allowed to use magic outside of school, he can't get them. Hedwig (Harry's owl), is locked inside of her cage and hasn't been let out since they moved back in. So anyways the book starts out into a fight, where Harry is told that he is not allowed to use the word "magic" in the house. He told Dudley to say the magic word, which is quite hilarious. This part is not in the movie. You also find out that that night will be a special dinner for his uncle, since someone who is rich he wants to sell to is coming over. So obviously he's trying to impress him and his wife. So Dudley is supposed to seem like an angel and take their coats at the door. Petunia is supposed to welcome them to the house. Harry is supposed to be in his room acting like he doesn't exist. They have the whole night planned out and Harry's plans aren't to change. In the next chapter is when the night comes and Harry goes up to his room quickly to find a house elf sitting on his bed. The house elf's name is Dobby, and he is wearing a pillow case for a shirt and pants. But he nervously explains to Harry that he musn't come to Hogwart's this coming year because he will be in danger. He also explains what a house elf is and that he is a slave to a family that make him beat himself whenever he does wrong. He must do what they say, by the way for anybody that doesn't know. But Harry has been suffering from not getting any letters from his friends. But Dobby explains that he was stopping the letters for in the hope Harry wouldn't go back to school if he felt that Harry's friends had abandoned him. Anyways so Harry keeps saying no to not going and Dobby runs downstairs with Harry chasing closely behind. Now between the book and the movie their both very different. In the book, Dobby magically picks up the cake and drops it on the ground, while it looks like Harry is right there. Then an owl swoops in and drops a letter right on the head of the guests wife, who just happens to have a terrible fear of big birds. So they lose the customer. Harry opens the letter, to find out that the ministry of magic sent a letter saying a Hover charm was used at a certain time and that if he is caught using magic outside of school again then it means expulsion from Hogwarts. So now that Vernon knows this, he locks him up in his room and only gives him food through a flap at the bottom of the door. (How humane). Now for the movie, Dobby rushes out of the room and Harry is chasing him, Dobby levitates the cake and Harry tries to grab it in the air and it is dropped on top of the head of the wife. No letter is sent that you see just the next thing you see is bars going over Harry's window. So there you go that is the first 2 chapters of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
