"Hello and welcome to Weasley Wizard Wheezes," the tall red-headed man greeted them warmly ,"Oh! The minister decided to check in. How may we help you?"
He was grinning at them,"I will call Ron."
"Thank you George," Mrs Weasley was panting.
"Never thought I would see a day when Hermione, our Hermione would thank us," a voice came from her back, she turned around to see a large portrait. It was painted on a mud coloured canvas. It was framed with gold which was loosely braided with two strands with little copper streaks. It contained the same man as before but he had both ears unlike the other one.
"Not now Fred," Mrs Weasley mumbled irritably. Just then another red-head entered the room. He seemed younger then the other one.
"I thought you were going to be on work all day. What happened?" he rushed towards Mrs Weasley after exchanging a few hugs she said.
"Ron, I need to use the Floo network. Can you please look after Alisha?"
"And this is one of our first inventions "Skiving Snackboxes"," Mr George Weasley announced, smiling proudly ,"It has a variety of snacks that make you sick. So you can skip classes."
Alisha picked one up.
"Since it is your first time shopping here, I guess we will give it to you as a gift,"Mr Weasley continued.
"No...it is ...no," she stammered turning red.
"I insist. Hogwarts is getting too serious we need a few pranksters there," he smiled. She took it.
"Okay this is all. What do you think of the store?" he finished.
"It is perfect."
They had given her a place in the Ravenclaw common room.
"It is the only place that is set up for use," Professor McGonagall had told her.
Now that she was alone she had time to think. All she could think was who were the people who had mysteriously arrived at the alley, were they after her?
With that troubled thought she fell asleep.
