Last time:

A few more minutes passed another argument about throwing Harry out and another owl soon led to a red envelope bursting into flames, making a voice echo around the room. Petunia looked terrified, as she said, 'the boy-the boy will have to stay Vernon.' A few more words between the couple before Petunia said, 'go to bed.' Allen went over to Harry and tugged on his arm, the smaller boy surprisingly stronger then he looked, 'Harry, let's go.'


Allen watch Harry scratch out three notes, ready to send them when his owl came back. Pacing round his room, Harry was getting impatient. He kicked his trunk, making Allen jump back, and tripped over Tana. He stood up muttering and went past the window. As he did, his owl came soaring in, like a ghost. Harry snarled at her, tying the letters to her leg he said, 'take these straight to Sirius, Ron and Hermione and don't come back until you have good long replies. Keep pecking them till they've written decent-length answers if you've got to. Understand?'

His owl gave a muffled hoot and flew off out the window. Turning back to the bed he sat next to Allen, flopping back, 'what a day. And who are you guys really?' Allen sighed, joining Harry in lying down, 'I told you, we were sent by the professor to protect you...load of good we were.' Harry raised an eyebrow, 'your brother helped...how did he do it?' he looked down at the sleeping boy who had more bruises in the last five minutes then in the whole day.

Allen smiled and said, 'actually, we really don't want to talk about it...as for him, he won't wake until tomorrow now.' His stomach gave a huge growl, 'any way...you got any food? I'm starved' Harry chuckled and went under his bed, pulling out some of his supplies and handing them to Allen. That's when he noticed there was a golden ball with wings on his head.

'Hey Allen, why do you have a snitch on your head?' Allen blinked and reached up, pulling it off laughing, 'oh this? This is Timcampi. Tana has one the same but it has butterfly wings. It's also called Timcampy. There nicknames are Tim and Timmi.' He laughed at Harry's face as he watched the golden golem fly round the room. 'Let's go to bed ne? Follow my brother's example.' Harry yawned agreeing, 'hopefully I'll have three big fat letters tomorrow morning.' Allen chuckled, nodding before joining his brother on their makeshift bed.

After four days of no letters, Harry and the twins were playing with some cards, well they were teaching Harry poker, when Harry's uncle came in, dressed in a suit and looking very smug, 'we're going out,' Harry looked at his uncle whilst the twins were arguing about a hand, 'sorry?' his uncle cast a glace over the three boy's, 'we - that is to say, your aunt, Dudley and I - are going out' Harry shrugged, looking back at his cards before laying one down and picking up another, 'fine.'

'You are not to leave your bedroom while we are away. You are not to touch the television, the stereo, or any of our possessions. You are not to steal food from the fridge. I am going to lock your door' Harry had said, fine or ok to all of them. At the last one he said, 'you do that.' Vernon cast a glare over them; especially at the fact Tana had started chuckling at something.

Vernon stomped out of the room, locking it in his wake. They trio heard the sounds of the front door and the twins moved to the window in curiosity, watching the car moving away from the drive. Harry had led back down on his bed, the card game forgotten. None of them seemed to be bothered about the darkness that was creeping into the room as they couldn't be bothered getting up to turn on the lights.

There was quiet, apart from the hushed whispers between the brothers, another pointless argument, before a crash was heard in the kitchen below. Harry bolted upright and the twins jumped quietly to their feet, moving to the door. There was silence before voices. The trio looked at each other and Harry grabbed his wand. They all thought the same thing, 'burglars.' There was a click that made all of them jump and the door swung open. They stood looking at it; they listened for any more voices. Harry swallowed but moved forwards, the twins following him.

They stopped at the top of the stairs, looking at the group below them in shock. There were eight or nine figures silhouetted against the street lamps, looking up at them. 'Lower your wand boy, before you take someone's eye out,' one of them said, in a low growling voice. Harry seemed to recognise it for he said, 'Professor Moody?' uncertainly. After a bit of talk, one of the witches cast a spell that lit up the hall, twinkling off the twins white hair and making their silver-blue eyes sparkle.

There was some discussion about Harry's looks when the one who had spoken first, Moody said, 'you quite sure it's him Lupin?' he muttered something about a death eater and Lupin said, 'what form does your Patronus take?' Harry looked confused and nervous as he said, 'a stag.' Lupin smiled and said, 'that's him, Mad-Eye.'

They made their way to the kitchen as Harry was lectured about where he put his wand by Mad-Eye. Moody sat at the table, taking a swig out of a flask as his blue eye whizzed round, taking in the kitchen, and resting on the two exorcists, 'now who do we have here then?' he growled, both eye's settling on them. The boys shuddered and Harry said, 'they're friends.' Allen nodded, 'Professor Dumbledore sent us to protect Harry.'

'Ah so your friends with that moody samurai and the crazy red headed boy.' Allen sighed and said, 'yes...unfortunately.' Tana grinned and said, 'how is my Usagi-kun?' the wizards all looked at him, 'what! I want to know how Lavi's doing!' he whined. Allen shook his head and patted his brother's head, 'ignore him. He's a little crazy.'

Lupin introduced them all and the twins introduced themselves. Tonks was looking round the kitchen, 'very clean aren't they, these muggles? My dad's a muggle-born and he's a right old slob. I suppose it varies, just as it does with wizards?' Harry and Allen stared at her as Tana tried not to laugh. Harry turned and said, 'what's going on. I haven't heard anything from anyone, what's Vol-?'

Several people hissed and one of the wizards dropped his hat. Moody growled, 'shut up.' Harry looked at the twins in confusion and they gave the same look back, 'what?' he asked. Moody looked at Harry with his normal eye, 'we're not discussion anything here, it's too risky.' His magical eye was focused on the ceiling, 'damn it,' he reached a hand up to it, 'it keeps getting stuck – ever since that scum wore it'

A nasty squelch was heard as moody pulled his eye out. Tana yelped and fell off his chair and Allen's hand shot up to his left eye, his mouth open in shook. Tonk's chuckled and said, 'Mad-Eye, you do know that's disgusting, don't you?' ignoring her Moody turned to Harry who had been helping Tana up, 'get me a glass of water, would you, Harry.'

Harry nodded, letting go of Tana's arm, and crossed over to the dishwasher, took out a clean glass and filled it with water. He handed it to Moody, 'cheers,' he said and he dropped the eyeball into the water, prodding it up and down, 'I want three hundred and sixty degrees visibility on the return journey.' Harry looked at him, 'how are we getting – wherever we're going?'

'Brooms,' Lupin said, 'only way. You're all too young to Apparate, they'll be watching the floo network and it's more than our life's worth to set up an unauthorized Portkey.' Kingsley Shacklebolt said, 'Remus says you're a good flier.' Lupin was checking his watch, 'he's excellent. Anyway, you'd better go and get packed boys; we want to be ready to go when the signal comes.'

'I'll come help you,' Tonks said, grinning. She followed the boy's upstairs, looking around with interest, 'funny place. It's a bit too clean, d'you know what I mean? Bit unnatural. Oh this is better,' she added when she entered Harry's room. The twin's makeshift bed wasn't made, there were playing cards scattered about along with books that Harry had started to read but got bored halfway through, and had thrown aside. Hedwig's cage needed cleaning out and was starting to smell.

Their clothes were scattered about, Harry's were half thrown in his trunk along with his wizard's robes. Harry started throwing things into his trunk whilst the twins set about finding the whole deck of cards. Tonk's had moved to his wardrobe, pausing in front of the mirror, 'you know, I don't think violets really my color, d'you think it makes me look a bit peaky?' the boys looked at her in confusion, 'err.' Tonks nodded, 'yeah it does,' and she screwed up her face, like she was remembering something.

Tana dropped the book he was holding onto Allen's head as Tonks' hair went bubblegum pink. Harry asked the question they were all thinking, 'how did you do that?' Tonks was admiring her reflection again, 'I'm a Metamorphmagus. It means I can change my appearance at will,' she added at the puzzled expressions on the boys' faces. Tana leant to Allen, 'she's like Lulubell.' Allen nodded.

They finished packing and Tonks said, 'right got everything? Cauldron? Broom? Wow! —a Firebolt?' as Tonks talked to Harry about his broom and hers, she used her wand to move Harry's trunk, and made her way downstairs with Harry, the twins followed. Tana had his backpack on and Allen carried his suitcase. Looking at his brother Tana said, 'what are we meant to do? We don't have brooms.' Allen shrugged and they went into the kitchen.

Lupin was just sealing a letter as they walked in and explaining to Harry what was inside. Just before Harry was about to be disillusionmented Tana said, 'uh what should we do?' the wizards looked at them and Lupin said, 'Dumbledore told us you had your own form of transport. Here. He said to give you this so you could find the place.' He handed Allen a piece of parchment. On it was an address, as Allen looked Tana said, 'wouldn't it be safer for you guys to just come with us? Otherwise we'd be there before you. Plus it must be safer then flying ne?'

Allen shook his head as he pointed to the bottom of the parchment, when you arrive your head chief would like to talk to you, Tana looked at it and shrugged, 'ok never mind. We'll see ya later Harry.' He waved, grinning as they left the house. As soon as they thought safe, they called the ark and vanished, appearing at the address Dumbledore had given them. They went up the steps and knocked on the door.

Opening the door, a rather stout lady with wild red hair. She looked at them, then at the rose crosses and nodded, placing a finger to her lips. The nodded, following her in the house and past a set of curtains. After they were clear she led them to the kitchen and said, 'welcome to the home of the order, your friends are upstairs, but I'll bet you want some food first. I'm Molly Weasley by the way.' She smiled kindly at the twins who couldn't help but smile back, 'thank you, we would love some food. I'm Allen walker, and this is my twin brother Tana.' Tana grinned and raised his hand, 'Yo. And actually, I'm alright for food, I'm going to see if I can find Usagi-kun alright?'

Allen sighed but nodded, 'more for me I guess,' he chuckled as Tana left. Molly Weasley set about, cooking food for the young boy. Tana had gone up the stairs by the kitchen when he spotted a red head, 'Lavi?' he called, unsure. The red head turned round and he could see that it wasn't Lavi, but a tall boy, around Harry's age maybe, with freckles on his nose. Tana jogged up to him smiling, 'sorry, confused you with someone else.'

The red head chuckled, 's'alright. I'm Ron Weasley. Pleased to meet you.' He held out a hand and Tana shook it, 'Tana Walker.' Ron nodded and said, 'I think your friends with Fred and George. But it's troublesome.' Tana chuckled and said, 'if Lavi's their friend then they must be pranksters right?' Ron nodded, grimacing. Tana chuckled again and said, 'cool, new tricks from here to pull on the people back home.' Ron stared at him as another red head popped out from a door, this one wore a patch over his right eye and was grinning, 'someone say my name?'

Tana jumped on him after a few moments pause, 'Usagi-kun!' Lavi chuckled, patting the boy's head, 'alright already, I missed you to now get off!' Tana sat up, allowing Lavi to get himself up. He looked over at Ron who was staring, 'yes he is a hyper little twat at times but ne, that's why we all love him.' He chuckled as he patted the younger boys head, 'now we must go see Koumi. Where's Allen?' Tana snorted and said, 'Mrs. Weasley said she'd make him something to eat.'

Lavi chuckled, 'so he may be a while.' Tana nodded grinning, 'anyway I wanna see Koumi. I want to know what's going on.' Lavi grinned as he and Tana walked down the hall. A few minutes later Allen joined them with a satisfied look on his face. Tana chuckled and said, 'have fun?' Allen nodded, 'that was the first time I've had so much to eat in ages! I'm surprised I could function properly.'

They met with Koumi who gave them brief summary of their mission. Adding in the bits Dumbledore had asked after the twins had left. Lenalee came in just as Koumi finished and Tana seemed to perk out of his stupor long enough to glomp her, 'LENALEE!' he yelled as Koumi twitched slightly, 'man I've missed you so much! Allen's been boring the hell out ta me.' He grinned at Koumi's attempts to stay where he was.

Luckily he was saved when they heard yelling in the room below them. Tana let go of Lenalee and darted out the door, dragging Lavi with him, 'sounds like Harry's here.' He stopped outside a room where Harry's voice could be heard along with a girls and Ron's. Tana opened the door, ignoring the angry aura in it, 'geez Harry, it took ya long enough ta get here!'

He ducked, chuckling at the punch Harry threw at him. Ron gaped, Lavi was chuckling along with Tana and the girl looked horrified, 'Harry! What on earth! Why did you do that?!' Tana grinned, 's'alright. At least it wasn't a sword. I'm Tana by the way.' He held out a hand which she took, blushing, 'Hermione. And what did you mean by that comment?' Lavi and Tana looked at each other grinning.

'Well, let's say that one of our members doesn't like our nickname for him and tries to kill us with his katana,' they said together. Tana grinned, 'though it's always fun. So if you see us running away from something....it'll be him'

With the two exorcists still chuckling, Harry had managed to calm down enough to say, 'so what have you two been doing, if you're not allowed in meetings? You said you'd been busy' Hermione turned to Harry quickly, we have. We've been decontaminating this house; it's been empty for ages and stuffs been breeding in here. We've managed to clean out the kitchen, most of the bedrooms and I think we're doing the drawing room tomo – AARGH!'

Two loud cracks were heard and two red-heads appeared in the room. Lavi chuckled as Tana fell off the bed swearing slightly. He raised a hand in greeting at the red haired twins, 'hey Fred, hey George.' They waved back, looking at the cussing boy next to him with raised eyebrows, 'hey Lavi, is this the kid you were telling us about?' they asked together. Still chuckling Lavi nodded.

Tana glared at Lavi as Hermione said, 'stop doing that.' The twins grinned and looked at Harry, 'hello Harry, thought we heard your dulcet tones,' George said as Fred chuckled, 'you don't want to bottle your anger up like that, Harry, let it all out. There might be a couple of people fifty miles away who didn't hear you.' Harry scowled at them and asked, 'you two passed your Apparation tests, then' grumpily.

The twins nodded and after a few more comments a red head girl entered, telling them about a spell that had been cast at the door. Tana looked at Lavi with a raised brow, 'we weren't meant to be in that meeting were we?' Lavi cursed and slapped his head, 'damn it we were.' Tana chuckled and looked at the staring faces of the others.

He started backing up as the twins advanced on his, grinning. He only stopped when he fell off the bed…again, 'sooo you guys go to the meetings. What do they talk about?' Tana stared at them, mouth open, 'what! I only just got here an hour ago! How would I know?' they turned their gazes to Lavi who chuckled, 'sorry boys can't tell ya. Well we gotta go!'

Lavi grabbed Tana by the shirt collar and dragged him out, leaving the rest to their own devices. As soon as they were far enough away Lavi let go, 'sorry Love. But we needed to get outta there.' Tana nodded, rubbing his throat, 'you think we'd be able to get in now?' he asked, hoping for something else entirely. Lavi grinned when he heard the tone, 'maybe, or maybe you want to come to my room and 'catch up'' Tana grinned back, nodding.
