Time: 2:00 P.M. - Lunchtime. - August 18 - Two weeks before start of school - Fifth Year

It was a regular summer day at The Burrow, nothing special. Harry and Hermione had come over to stay with the Weasleys for the remainder of the summer. Ron, Harry, Harmione and Ginny all sat in the living room, doing their own thing, while Mrs. Weasley started making lunch.

Ron and Harry were playing a game of Wizard's Chess, while Hermione wrapped herself in one of her many books,which she refered to as 'light reading' and Ginny flipped through the pages of a muggle magazine, that Hermione had brought for her. Then suddenly a jet black owl flew through the kichen window and stopped by the stove, awaiting Mrs. Weasley to take off the parchment, tied to its leg. Mrs. Weasley took the parchment off and eyed the letter quickly. Her eyes widened as she read more into the letter.

Ron and Harry looked up from what they were doing to see what the letter was about, Hermione was still reading and Ginny was admiring the beautiful owl still waiting on the stove, for Mrs. Weasley to give her a treat. She did so and the owl flew off.

"You seem really happy, what's the letter about mum?" asked Ron.

Mrs. Weasley ignored Ron, as she scream for her husband to come inside, from the garden. " Arthur! You have to come inside. I have wonderful news."

"What is in that letter! it's driving me nuts!" Ron screamed with anger and excitement.

"You'll find out as soon as YOUR FATHER comes inside." Mrs.Weasley said as Mr. Weasley opened the door.

"So, what's this good news I hear?" Mr. Weasley asked his wife.

"Well, you do remember Grace, Chris and Veronica, right?" Mrs. Weasley asked.

"Of course I remember, those kids are wonderful, I still remember when they used to be in dipers..." Mr. Wealsey started to trail off.

"Well, Grace has just sent me a letter saying that they will be coming to Hogwarts this September and they have agreed to take up our offer of staying here the rest of the summer!" Mrs. Weasley said as gasped for air.

"Now that's wonderful! I've been wondering how they've been doing in the Muggle world. It will be great to see them again." Mr. Weasley said happily.

Ron, Harry, Hermione and Ginny were still very confused, unlike Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, about what the letter was about.

"Mrs. Weasley, can you update us on what's happening here? Who are those people that you and Mr.Weasley are so happy to hear about?" asked Harry.

"Oh my gosh, Arthur hasn't told you yet?" Mrs. Weasley asked, as she glared at her husband."Well, I think we should talk about this after lunch then we can all settle down and I'll be able to tell the twins too, when they come back from Lee's house."

During lunch, all of the other Weasleys, Harry and Hermione were very excited about the news that was waiting for them after they had finished their plates. They had all eaten their lunch in complete silence, still wondering who those three people are.

"I can tell that everyone is wondering what got Arthur and I so excited." Mrs. Weasley said after about 20 minutes of silence and as they all listened very carefully. "Grace is Harry's older sister." Everyone's jaw dropped at that statement, Harry's hand raised to speak."Questions and comments later." Mrs. Weasley said as she continued "Yes, Harry has a sister, and a brother and another sister, sort of. Grace is two years older then Harry."

"Hey, she's our age!" Fred and George said in unison.

"As I was saying. Grace is two years older then you Harry. On the day your parents passed away, Grace was sent to spend the day with your grandmother, Harry, while you stayed with Lily and James went to pick up Chris and Veronica. Their parents had passed away a week before your parents had. They too were kill, by Voldemort. Your parents were their godparents and since they had no other family, James and Lily were the only ones they had. All the papers were cleared, officially Chris and Veronica are your brother and sister. James was about to leave that night to pick them up, when Voldemort came. After they were killed, the ministry sent your grandmother a letter explaining what had happened to your parents. Being that she was very old and a muggle, she suffered a heart-attack, from the rush of news coming in. Grace was sent the muggle police, within an hour of the after-math,where she would be safe. Harry, you were carried off by Dumbledore to make sure that you hadn't suffered any damage. The muggle policemen sent Grace to an orphange because they couldn't find any information on her. Ironicly, Grace was sent to the same orphange as Chris and Veronica. The three of them were adopted by a nice wizard that worked for the ministry. He adopted Grace before Dumbledore could take you and her to the Dursley's, so he just let it be. They all went to Oxford Academy (actual school in California) near the other Wizarding Schools, but this year Dumbledore has allowed them to enter into Hogwarts, since Grace will be in her last year of school, he didn't wish to prolong this separation." Mrs. Weasley took a very deep breath after that very long explanation. They all had their jaws dropped to the ground. "Any questions?" Mr. Weasley finished for his wife.

"Why wasn't I told this before?" Harry said as he tried to contain his anger.

"Dumbledore thought that it wasn't the right time because of Voldemort being around, it would be like adding another victim for him to kill. But since you defeated Voldermort, in your fourth year, everyone is now safe." Mr. Weasley said.

Harry started to calm down and yet he was still very angry. He gave a deep sigh and asked "So, when are they coming?"
