Authors note:
So, in the last chapter you see many ...odd things. After all, how did Annie get stuck in a closet, how will she get out and, Who The Hell(™) is Conscience?
Disclaimer: If I was J.K. Rowling why would I be writing this?

Alane Apolo (Annie's mum) P.O.V.
All Alane Apolo wanted to do on a Saturday was sleep.
It had been a very, stressful week and with her daughter's brithday in two days there was a somewhat rushed and impaitent air about the house. So, after a painful Friday (Annie was getting very excited) Alane had gone to bed and vowed to sleep 'till noon.
But, alas, it was not meant to be.
When Alane woke to the sound of screaming and her son Tristen burst into the room saying that James had a black eye and Annie fell out the window, she could just feel the headach she was going to have by the end of the day.

( 4 hours later)
" Oh, and Annie if your going to try and blow up my oven again, being stuck on the ceiling will be the least of your worries."
As you can see, Alane's day was not going quite as planed.

" The pantry is fully stocked, the emergency floo adresses are on the fridge, and for gods sake Annie! Stop your moaning and groaning, its only an hour with your sister and its not going to kill you! I don't know why you hate spending time with her so much, you loved to play with her when you were younger!" exclaimed Alaine
"Mum! Lilac. is. a. ditz. All frill and pink a-and UGH! Its soooooooooooooooo GAH! I can't handle this!" Annie then proceded to get down on her knees and beg " PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME WITH W-WITH THAT!"
" Honestly Annie stop being so dramatic your Lilac is not going to murder you. I love you all and have fun WITH your sister."
" MUMMY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Alaine closed the door and fought not to laugh as she apperated away.

(1 hour later)
Alaine came home an hour later to a quiet house. The birds were chirping, there was music playing in the background, all and all it was very peaceful.
Something was very, VERY, wrong.
Where was the screaming and yelling, the brocken glass and the throwing of the ugly vases the her mother sent for christmas every year?
And more importantly, where was Annie?
She knew her daughters hated each other, and usually when she came home Annie would wrap her arms around her and moan and goan about how horrible it had been and beg her to never, EVER, leave her alone with that she-demon ever again.
Something very odd was going on around here, and she was going to figure out what.
First things first, find Annie.
"Lilac!" she called. "Where are you?"
"Living room!" came the loud and board reply
Alaine walking into the living room to see lilac reading her pink, and admitidly odnoxiously, bright maginzes. Looking as utterly frilly as usual, spralled out on the couch with out a care in the world.
"Lilac, where is your sister?" she questioned with fake calm.
"Who?"
Now that made her panic.
" Your sister! Y-you know, long red hair, blue eyes and awkward personality!" Alaine cried with her voice growing gradually shriller with each word.
" Hmmmmmmm, nope! Not ringing a bell!" Lilac said with a contemplative expression on her face.
Alaine felt a twitch come to her eye. " She swears a lot."
" OH! That sister, no I haven't seen her since you left, sorry." Alanie gave a breath of relief, yup, same old Lilac.
"Well, then i'm going to go put on my jacket and see if Rhianna Potter next door has seen her, okay?"
"Yeah, whatever."
Alaine went into the hall and the closet open. And found her self leaping backwards as a baby tiger and small red-headed little girl came tumbling out. Then with a scream of " FREEADOM!" The red-head scooped up the cat and went sprinting out of the house.
"Annie?"
~o0O0o~
oh,my poor mother bless her soul! She was a saint! All four of us were absolute hellions when we were childern ( some of us still are). I truly don't understand how she did it! That women could calm Lilac, entertain Andrew, convince Tristen to d anything she said and tye me down in the span of a half- an hour and still be able to do everything that she needed to do that day! Which I assure you was no small feit, when I say hellions, I mean hellions! We were psycos! Deamons even it was a miracle she didn't dump us of at our grandparent's homes half the time we drove her bonkers! And she so often let us know that. The dear women, how I miss her so.
Hmmm...where was I? Oh yes...
A.N. : Ha! Bet you were not expecting that! Coming up: we find out where Annie went off to, meet Rhianna Potter, and get to know James!
