I bet you guys thought I wouldn't be updating again! Well, so did I. There has been a lot of problems. My keyboard kept breaking, my computer got a virus, but mainly, I just couldn't be bothered. Also, I apologise in advance for any mistakes I may make, like I said, my keyboard kept breaking and it still hasn't been fixed properly.
The charms and spells the had been practising were coming along great. They were almost ready to face their 'family', if you could call them that. Jessica spent a lot of time muttering under her breath about 'what she would have done to Sirius'.
"Yeah, yeah! We know Jess, sure you would have Jess" The other three were constantly forced to put up with it and nod in agreement. One night they were having a conversation when Ginny came to a realisation.
"Guys what if Dumbledore tries to force us to stay and protect 'The Chosen One'" inquired Ginny. 'The Chosen One' was now a fond statement among the children. They had managed to get hold of a newspaper and saw an article referring to Harry's brother as the 'Chosen One'. Neville looked at the other three pondering it.
"Well, that's simple. Dumbledore may be powerful, but he's not as powerful as us." he answered quit simply. Jess hesitated.
"Yeah, but he's got the entire Order on his side!" she protested. Then added bitterly under her breath "Plus my good or nothing father".
"We're still more powerful, you guy's know that" answered Neville. Of course they knew this, after all they were the most magical beings alive. Harry nodded.
"Neville's right. They can't beat us no matter how hard they try. And besides, I wouldn't protect my brother for all the fame, glory and money the world could offer." said the Harry.
The foursome made plans over the next few days. They planned out how everything was going to go and just incase, they created a few extra charms and spells to protect them from Dumbledore. There was a lot of hesitation and second-thoughts in the run up t when they were going to set off but once reminded of how they were going to get answers and explanation all doubt left their mind.
Once more, Dumbledore returned to the camp-site. He arrived just outside the wards. The foursome watched from the opening in the tent. Dumbledore paced around before raising his hand and letting a blue ball take control of his arm. He moved around and came near to the camp-site. Jess giggled. Dumbledore was using an Under-cover magic spell to try to find the kids. "What an idiot! Our magic is too powerful for a simple Under-cover magiccharm to show it!" spluttered Jess. Ginny grinned, it was good to see Jess laugh again and to see her use her brain for more than coming up with plans to hurt Sirius.
After a couple more minutes, Dumbledore left. "Foolish old man. He's supposed to be the one Voldemort fears?" Harry rolled his eyes. "Anyway, come on, we've got preparations to make." he said rubbing his hands together.
"Oh come on Harry, one night off? That's all we ask!" begged Jess, down on her hands and knees. Harry shook his head and rolled his eyes.
"Get up Jess, fine we can have one night off, but straight back to normal tomorrow!" he said, some-what sternly.
"Come on Harry, let's go or a walk!" insisted Ginny. Harry grinned and obligingly followed Ginny. The air was warm and the stars were shining brightly. "Harry, do you think our family has changed over the years? It has been five years after all" asked Ginny. Harry looked at her softly. He knew she missed her twin brothers and her father and she hoped the rest of her family would have changed.
"I doubt it Gin. My parents have definitely not changed. You seen that article with them yapping on about how 'precious the chosen one' was to them." he said with a sigh. Ginny looked at before taking his hand and running.
"Come on Harry! Let's have some fun for a change!" she said laughing wildly. Harry shook his head and grinned. He then chased afer her.
Meanwhile Neville was suffering. Jessica was talking non-stop about what she was going to do to Sirius and e was getting seriously sick of it.
"Jess, I get it. Your dad's a piece of crap, so let's not waste our only night of in ages talking about him." he begged. Jess gave him an apologetic look.
"I'm sorry but I just hate him so much! Then again, I don't hear you nattering on about how nasty ad vile your gran was. I'll stop now! I promise!" she said.
"It's ok, and hey! You can cut his head of when we see him. How's that?" He offered, playfully.
"That would be great, Mr. Longbottom!" Jess giggled.
Far away from the children, there was a meeting going on at number 12 Grimmauld place.
"...It appears my sources have mis-informed me" said a wizened old man, with a long, silver, wispy beard.
"Damn it Albus! Why can't you just find them!" roared Sirius Black. He banged his fist down onto the wooden table.
"Now, now Sirius! Clam down-"
"Why should he old man? Your meant to be the most powerful wizard alive and you can't even find our 15-year-old sister!" shouted the Weasley twins in unison.
"She's 13 and a half boys. Now be quiet and Let professor Dumbledore speak!" hushed Mrs. Weasley. The twins glared at her!
"She's fifteen! No wonder she ran away, with a mother like you and he's not our professor anymore! Even if he was I wouldn't let him talk because he's got nothing but crap to say!" exclaimed Fred.
"Exactly! You can't even remember your own daughters age and that man shows us no respect so why should we show him any! He's a bloody nuisance, he is!" agreed Fred.
"Shut up Fred, george. She was nothing but annoying anyway!" said Ron. The twins lunged forward at him. But Sirius pulled them back.
"Don't get yourselves in trouble!" he insisted.
"I don't even know why you're bothering with that good for nothing boy. Neville was never quite his father nor his mother" huffed an old women sitting in a wooden rocking chair. Apparently she was Neville's gran.
"Harry was the same. Useless and in-capable of doing a simple chore. He was nothing compared to his brother. Nothing but a nobody!" Lily Potter rolled her eyes at the thought of her son and James Potter looked like he was about to puke. Mathew Potter, no the other hand, looked quite smug and proud of himself. "Good boy Mathew, sitting quietly and letting the headmaster speak" smiled Lily Potter. She ruffled her son's hair giving Mathew a reason to smirk.
"Calm down everyone. These children definitely aren't 'intelligent' or talented, but if we find them we can paint Mathew in a good light and get more people on ou side. Just imagine 'The Chosen One welcomes his brother back with open arms'!" exclaimed Dumbledore, joyously. Mathew basked in the attention. "We will find them..."
Harry Potter lay on the small couch in front of the fireplace, in the tent. Ginny Weasley was laying sleeping beside him. Harry sat up gently so as not to hurt Ginny, but as h hoped it woke her up. "Gin, where's Nev and Jess?" he asked her quietly.
"I'm not sure" but just then Neville ad Jessica entered the tent.
"We have to talk!" exclaimed Harry. Neville and Jessica took a seat down beside Harry and Ginny. "Neville when's the next order meeting?"
"Day after tomorrow, why?" replied Neville.
"We're going to that meeting. Don't come up with excuses. The only reason we haven't already gone is because we were scared. We've had the fidelius charm mastered for a few weeks now and we should have already gone. We're going the day after tomorrow, no arguments!"
They all nodded. It was decided. In about a day and a half they would face their family.
Ok, how was it. I'm a little out of practise so sorry and like I said, my keyboards nto working wel so I apologise for whatever mistakes I may have made. Also, I'm sorry this is such a short chapter.
Anyway, PLEASE review! Please!?
