CHAPTER FOUR: THE KEEPER OF THE KEYS

After Mr. Dursley took the family out to sea, they lived on a "small island", on the island there was
a small house, it was very small, it was so small that it didn't look like a house. In the middle of the
night, the weather was cold, there was a lot of rain, "boom" someone outside was knocking on the
door, the knock was very loud, it woke up the boy Dudley, Dudley bewildered asked: "Where did the
cannon explode? " The door slowly opened, Mr. Dursley banned a gun, he shouted: "Someone? I
warn you I have a gun". A quiet atmosphere, suddenly, someone broke the door, the door fell to the
floor. The man was extremely large, he had a thick beard, his hair covered his face, but we could see a
pair of jet-black, shining eyes. He was a giant stooping, because he was so tall. His head has cleared
the cobwebs from the ceiling. He turned around, picked up the door panel, and fixed it back
up. He sat on a chair, said, "No tea? Well, it's been a tough trip" and then he called to Dudley,
"Wake up, you meaty," and he ran behind his mother. He saw Harry and said, "Ah, here it is
Harry." Harry looked back at the "strange man", "that person" said again: "Last time I saw
you, you were still an infant, you resembled your father but your eyes resembled your
mother". Mr. Dursley said, "I'm asking you to get out of here immediately. You're
trespassing." "Shut up, Mr. Dursley," the man yelled at Mr. Dursley and then he pulled a box
out of his black shirt, Harry took the box, Harry could see his hands shaking from the cold.
the hairy man, Harry opened the box, inside was a large chocolate birthday cake, with the
words "happy birthday" written in green cream, Harry wanted to say thank you to the man
this strange man, because he is the only one who remembers Harry’s birthday. But instead of
saying thank you to the stranger, Harry asked "who are you", and the giant introduced
himself, "oh, I haven't introduced myself, I'm Rubeus Hagrid, Hogwarts' lock-keeper and
yardkeeper", and he took Harry's hand and asked him "Any tea? I won't refuse chocolate".
Hagrid saw a bag of chips and then he did some magic to make the fireplace fire,
miraculously, the fire was warm, Harry felt the warmth. Hagrid took out a sack of sausages, a
pile of sticks, a packet of tea, teacups, and a bottle of the amber liquid he took a sip from
before making tea. And after a while, the whole "house on the island" smelled of grilled
sausages.
