The Lost Chapters
Post DH (excluding epilogue) time travel, some OOC. Old concept but amazing nonetheless. No flames please- don't like, don't read. *Multiple POVs* IN PROGRESS
Chapter 1- Weasleys' Wizarding Woes *Ginny*
Where did everything go wrong? I had it all; 6 overprotective brothers, loving parents, all the money and fame I could want; the Chosen One was my boyfriend, for crying out loud!
Bill is now in charge of the Goblin Liaison Office, living with Fleur in Shell Cottage. I haven't really been in touch with my oldest brother for a long time, even during the war. A lot of the change happened when he fell in love with that French part-Veela Fleur, and even more so when he was savaged by Greyback. Now it looks like they're moving on to have their own family with their baby girl, Victoire.
Charlie has gone back to Romania for his precious dragons.
Percy… well, I never really got on with him, especially after he abandoned and shunned MY family. It started long before the Ministry was taken over completely (the Darkest Year of All Time), and the worst part is that nobody pressured him into it, he wasn't blackmailed or placed under the Imperious Curse and he was never treated as anything but close family; he just didn't want to know. Well now he doesn't.
George has never quite been the same since we lost Fred; he sold the joke shop and is now moping around some bar or another, trying to 'drown his sorrows' or something. I see him from time to time when I pass through Diagon Alley, but I don't think he even recognises me anymore. Heck, if he wasn't the only guy staggering round with red hair and one ear, I probably wouldn't recognise him either.
Mum never really recovered from the combined shock of the war; I think she might have been alright, one day, from losing Fred, but the battle with Bellatrix must have tipped her over the edge. None of us could quite believe that the kind, loving Molly Weasley would ever take a life in anger and retribution, and now here she is, driven out of her mind. Bellatrix may be dead, but her torture never ends… I just wish I could make that Death Eater scum pay for what she's done.
Dad has taken over looking after her, as well as providing for everyone else with his new position in the Ministry; an Unspeakable in the Department of Mysteries. He doesn't talk about work obviously, but that's sort of become the pattern with his life too. I haven't had a proper conversation with him for weeks.
Ron was hailed a hero, as one of the "Golden Trio" who defeated Voldemort. He's the only family I have left, when he's not busy basking in the reflected glory of the Man with the Lightning Scar. My ex-boyfriend. Ugh.
He came to the Burrow a week after the final battle, to "sort things out" with me. Translation; he no longer wanted anything to do with someone as insignificant as myself. I don't think I fully realised that he was gone until I found a newspaper clipping about a month later about his life with his new fiancée, Hermione Granger.
Someone else I'd like to knock some good hard sense into. Who did she think she was? It's an unspoken law that you don't jump right into bed with the guy that dumped your best friend! And poor Ron; sometimes all he can do is wander round in a daze like a troll has smashed a club over his head. Hermione Granger, or Potter, or whatever they call her these days, strolls about like she hasn't just shattered my brother's heart into a million pieces.
I know it's far too late to change things, but if I could go back and fix it I would. Wonder where I'd start though? I had already been officially broken up with before they all left to find the Horcruxes, so maybe it was when he was spending all that time with Dumbledore… no, that doesn't seem right. When Bellatrix killed Sirius it really unhinged him; that might have caused the damage between us. It could stem back to when he saw Cedric get murdered, and he lost the innocence I had once known him to have. But I think, to be sure, I should go right back to the beginning. Before he knew me as just another silly fan girl, his best mate's sister, one of the many people he saved from Tom Riddle. I will fix this, for myself and my poor brother. I just need more time…
