I fixed the grammar and spelling mistakes in the previous chapters, I apologize for that.

The order had collected themselves at the Burrow, thanks to the welcoming hospitality of the Weasley family, despite the danger the future operation may cause. And although Lupin knew how merry and happy the family was in different times, a serious mood had took hold of every member and the others that had come to assist Harry Potter on this trying evening.

Tonks was busy conversing with Mad-Eye Moody, who had been one of only a few that was able to attend the wedding. Her face was stern and focused as she listened to whatever words Mad-Eye was telling her. Lupin became temporarily distracted from his own conversation with Kingsley and Mr. Weasley as he watched her face.

"I do hope this all goes smoothly," said Arthur, and Lupin pulled himself back into the conversation. "Considering the sudden change in plans, that is."

"It will,' said Lupin, placing a hand on Arthur's shoulder as a sign of reassurance. "We must keep our heads on our shoulders for this one."

"Because it would be rather bad if they fell off, wouldn't it?" said Fred Weasley as he walked between the group of them to join his brother on the other side of the room, who'd been laughing with Ron and Hermione. This prompted a smack on the head from his father, and a humble bit of laughter from the three men.

There was a loud thud, and Lupin turned to see a mantelpiece clock slightly bounce and then rest on the floor. Tonks bent down to pick it up quickly, with Molly at her side rushing to do the same.

"I'm so sorry Molly," his wife said in hurriedness. "I'm hoping that my clumsiness will go away as I get older." She laughed.

"Oh, don't be silly dear," Molly said, restoring the clock to its proper place. She put an arm around Tonks and gave her squeeze, both of the women smiled at each other, as though they were silently exchanging thoughts private to themselves.

"Right then," said Lupin, taking the lead in order to distract himself. "I expect we'll hear from
Hestia and Dedalus at any moment. We all know our partners?"

"Just keep your paws to yourself mate," said George, coming up behind Lupin to pat him on the back.

"I intend to," Lupin replied.

"Be well aware of your senses," said Mad-Eye, taking the lead himself. "If anything is to go wrong then do your best to stick with the plan without giving anything much further away."

A patrounus in the form of an eagle flew through the window and circled the room for a few moments, delivering its message. "Our job at number four, Privet Drive is complete."

The eagle disappeared, and Mad-Eye was the first to move. "All right, let's get this started."
