Harry Potter and the Pie Maker

by salampsio

Hermione decides to go to a muggle college in America to get away and to get in touch with her muggle roots. Ron goes with her. While there, they become acquainted with Ned-the pie maker. Upon discovering that Ned has the ability to wake the dead, Harry wonders if he could actually get his parents back. But Ned has limitations that must first be overcome. It doesn't go smoothly.

14. Chapter 14

Chapter XIV

Harry and Ginny returned to England. Ron and Hermione returned to Brown. Ned returned to the Pie Hole exactly one minute and thirty-two seconds after leaving, which he noticed was a little later than the Doctor promised. Nobody knew where the Doctor went after dropping Ned off.

"Ginny," Harry said, "I think we should bring Ned to England."

"Sure," Ginny said, holding Harry's hand as they strolled along a street of cobblestone.

"I would trust Olivander better than some American to make sure Ned gets the right wand. Nobody knows wands better than Olivander. And while he's here, we could show him around."

"Do you think he'd come?" Ginny asked.

"We can ask. Let's call him."

"Okay."

Harry reached for his iPhone and called Ned.

"Hello?"

"Hi Ned. This is Harry."

"Hey, I haven't seen you in a while."

"Yeah, Ginny and I are back in England. Actually, that's why we called. How would you like to come for a short visit?"

"Actually, I'm only free for a couple of days this weekend. I don't know if I can justify the time and expense to fly there and back again."

"Not a problem. There's an international port key. It'll only take you a few seconds to get here from there."

"I guess a port key is some wizard way of traveling?"

"Yeah, something like that. Hermione and Ron can probably show you. Why don't you give them a call? I'll let them know. Is this weekend good for you?"

"Yeah!"
