Prologue
Bill Weasley closed his suitcase with a snap and took one final look around his small apartment. Everything was a little messy and more than a little shabby, but it didn't bother him. It just made it all more homely.
Nodding with satisfaction, he turned off the lights with a flick of his wand and grabbed some floo powder from a small glass on the mantle. He tossed it into the magically procured flames, and upon them turning emerald green, he got in, shouting "The Burrow!"
Within moments, he was back at his childhood home. He could hear his parents in the kitchen, his mum no doubt cooking, and his various siblings banging around in their rooms. "I'm home." He said, going and hugging his mother.
Mrs. Weasley beamed at him. "Welcome home, dear. Dinner's almost ready. Would you tell your brothers and sister?"
He nodded, carrying his trunk up the rickety stairs and deposited it in Fred and George's room. From the sounds of it, they were playing Exploding Snap in Ron's room. Before he could join them, however, he heard the sound of someone else apparating downstairs in the family room. Figuring it was Charlie, he went to tease his younger brother about being the late one for once.
But it wasn't Charlie at all.
