It seemed like a perfect day at the burrow. The birds were singing and it was silent, which was generally abnormal at 7:00 at the Weasley household. A 16 year old boy had just awoken into the complete silence. Ron got up and ran down the stairs to the kitchen and found it completely deserted. Ron started to grow worried. After all He thought, Mom is always in the kitchen when I get up. "Mom, Dad are you here" Ron shouted. He heard footsteps rush down the stairs and felt a wave of relief come over him. But the person who came down the stairs wasn't either of his parents. It was Ginny. "Ron what are you yelling about" she asked very sleepily. "MOM AND DAD ARE MISSING" he bellowed hysterically. Ginny's eyes seemed to perk open. "Is anyone here" she asked. "I don't know, but we better find out" Ron said. They both shot up the stairs checking every bedroom as they went. They met back in the kitchen 2 minutes later, both with worried looks on their faces. "Where could they be" Ginny asked scared. Silent tears began to pour from her eyes. Seeing his sister cry made Ron more worried and upset than he had been in the first place. "Oh my gosh look over here!" Ginny shouted pointing at the kitchen counter. Ron walked to the counter and looked at what was lying on it. It was a handwritten note from his mother that said:

Ron and Ginny,

I'm sorry to leave you home alone. Your father collapsed last night. The twins are with us.

Love Always,

Mom

"He collapsed?" Ginny said. "What does that mean?" "I don't know, but whatever it means it definitely sounds bad. Ron felt tears welling up in his eyes but he blinked them away. For once he was scared, scared for dad who was probably hovering between life and death again, scared for what would life be without his dad, and scared for how much pain would he suffer if his dad was gone. "Ginny we have to go and see him" He said suddenly. "And how do you expect to get there?" Ginny asked. " Flying that's how" Ron said looking at Ginny as if she were insane for asking such a stupid question. "Let's go" Ginny responded he voice full of determination.
