Sorry for the wait for this part, lots going on right now but hopefully I'll get back to regular posting soon!
The weeks following the meeting blurred into one for Rose. Kingsley had informed her that when something became available she would hear from him, so she waited.
With still no news from Jacob or her parents, and unable to bear staying alone at her family home, she had taken Molly up on her offer of staying at the Burrow. To help pass the time until she could do something useful for the Order, she had eagerly taken on a portion of the household chores, hoping she would find the piece of normalcy she had been missing.
Tending to the chickens and locating where they had laid their eggs that day had been entertaining, at first. She had taken great pleasure in displacing the Burrow's gnome infestation, at first. But the lack of- well, anything, and the repetition of her days soon had her feeling bored, and restless.
It was on a seemingly average day in late August where Rose's boredom reached its peak. She found herself once again de-gnoming the burrows large, overgrown garden. No matter how many times she got rid of the little buggers, nor whether she used her arm or her magic to throw them, they always returned, albeit grumbling and a little disorientated.
Spotting yet another small creature come crawling back through the undergrowth, Rose let out a sound not dissimilar to a battle cry and began sprinting towards it. The poor gnomes eyes grew wide as it watched the angry woman come hurtling towards it. The poor creature desperately tried to get back under the safety of the bushes, but Rose was too quick for its tiny legs. As she reached the gnome she swung her leg and booted the poor creature with all her might. The gnome went soaring through the air and disappeared far into the English countryside.
Knowing it would be a long time before that particular gnome found its way back, Rose smiled and sat down with a satisfied sigh.
"You know, if nothing else works out for you I reckon you might have a career as one of those muggle football stars," a familiar voice chuckled. Whipping her head round in the direction of the voice, Rose watched as Charlie made his way over to her from the back door of the Burrow, as he drew near her he handed her a letter and said "this just arrived for you."
Hoping it was news from her parents, she took it from him and eagerly opened it. Folding open the paper she quickly scanned over it, before turning it over and doing the same.
"It's blank" she challenged.
"Yes" Charlie answered cryptically. Rose scrutinised the page again before drawing her wand.
"Revelio" she said softly, holding her wand to the page. Within moments, the blank page was now a short note in Kingsley's hand, calling her to a meeting the following evening.
"That was a little simple, wasn't it? Anyone with a basic knowledge of charms could have read this" she pointed out.
"It's a modified version of the spell. Only the person the letter is intended for can reveal the message," noticing her about to argue more he added "and the intended person can't reveal the information if they are being forced to," Charlie finished, believing his answer would satisfy her.
"What about-" she started but stopped when Charlie began to laugh, "what's so funny?" she challenged, glaring at him.
"Nothing, I just love how you have to question everything" at that Charlie turned away, a pink tinge forming on his freckled cheeks. Rose looked at him quizzically before he cleared his throat "Anyway, I got a note too but mum and dad didn't. Must be a mission"
"Finally! I was starting to lose my mind waiting" Rose exclaimed.
Charlie held out his hand to help her up "well don't get too excited, we don't know what it is yet" he pointed out as he began walking back to the house.
"I guess" Rose replied, giving the vast garden one last look before following him back inside, her mind buzzing with what her first mission would entail.
