Here is that page that never got in. I have typed it out. Some of the words i had to guess what they were, so i bet my socks this will be incorrect in places. Very Early Page of Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone</span>
<span style="color:#FFCCFF">“So this Flamel bloke found the stone” said Ron.
No – he made it,” said Harry. “He was an alchemist which means-
“someone who turns base metals into gold,” said Hermione
She had the old proving I-know-more-than-everyone-else look on her face, the other two noticed. “Of course, I read about it in Alchemy Ancient Art and Science by Argo Pyrites.”
“I missed that one myself”, muttered Ron. “-And of course, it’s some of the most difficult magic you can do. And you end up with not just pure gold, but also with a funny stone thing.” Which is what I’m on about,” said Harry. “The Philosopher’s Stone, yes. And it works too. It kept Nicolas Flamel and his Wife alive for five-hundred years.
WHAT?
“I know,” said Harry, “but it’s true.” He was spotted at the opera in 1762 and he was burnt back in 13 something.”
Ron whistled.
“But he’s dead now?” he asked.
“Of course,” said Harry. “Someone stole his stones so he couldn’t make anymore Elixir of Life, could he? It takes a while to make another stone and by that time, I suppose, her was just too old to live without Elixir until a new stone was ready. And now I’ll tell you something else really weird that I haven’t told you up to now. The stone was found in my parent’s safe at Gringotts bank.” But instead of the intended noises Harry had expected, Ron and Hermione simply stared at him.
“What?” said Harry .
Ron cleared his throat, opened it to speak, but shut it again
“What?’” Harry said
“Well Harry,” said Hermione, “What I mean is…”
“You mean what?”
He stared at them both as they shuffled their feet and tried not to look him in the eye. “You don’t think-“ he said suddenly and angrily, “That my parents stole the stone?”
“Um…” said Ron
“Look” said Harry furiously, “That’s like saying the murdered Flamel…”
“Oh Harry we never though….”
“Not much you didn’t,” said Harry, “I don’t how it got in there, but the stone wasn’t put there by them..”
“Right” said Ron quickly. “I’m sure you’re right.”
“There must be an obvious explanation,” said Hermione.
Harry wasn’t at all convinced that they meant it, but at that moment the bell rang, which put an end to the conversation. |
