Chapter 2 ******* To the Burrow
In the morning, Harry decided to keep the letter to himself, it could have been a prank, or a mad death eater gone mental. And if he did tell everyone would probably panic again, and be hovering Harry like he was a bomb about to explode. So harry decided not to tell anyone, not even sirius, about the dream or the letter, and tried acting casual.
All day Harry drooped around the house thinking of what he would do once he got to Ron's house, and how in the world the Weasleys would come to pick him up this time. At first he thought they would probably once again use floo powder, but Harry had known the Weasleys for 5 years and realized that after an incident like that they probably wouldn't risk it. Then he thought maybe they would just apperate or maybe they charmed another car to fly. Maybe they would come through the sink faucet as liquid or maybe they would just transfigure into birds and land on his roof ?
Harry then amused himself by sneaking up behind Dudley and saying a few magic words or putting on the invisibility cloak and start picking up things making them look as they flew. Hour after hour Harry waited for the Weasleys dreaming . When they actually did arrive it was a bit of a disappointment because all they had done was borrow a real car from the ministry. But none the less Harry was overjoyed to see them.
The Dursleys had acted just as Harry thought they would, before Mr.Weasley could say "Hello" his uncle Vernon and had practically thrown him outside and kicked his stuff out to, angrily slamming the door, apparently mad because he had unblocked the fireplace for no good reason. Mrs.Weasley greeted him warmly and Harry practically jumped into their car obviously glad to get away from the Dursleys.
Once inside he noticed how much bigger the inside of the car was compared to a regular car and knew the ministry or Mr.Weasley had performed some magic on it.
"Hey Harry!" he was greeted by his best friend, Ron.
"Hi Ron, Fred, George, Ginny" He merrily said to the teens sitting with him.
"Hope the muggles didn't treat you too badly this time" said Fred
"Yeah, you should have introduced them to some of our inventions" said George (Fred's identical twin) with an evil grin.
" No, it wasn't that bad, your food packages really saved me though, thanks"
"No problem" said Ron
"so, who do u think the new DADA teacher is going to be this year?" said ginny. Harry had forgotten that there was going to be a new DaDA teacher and replied with," no clue"
"hope snape doesn't get the job, that would be a real pain" said ron
"yeah and who would want to make the slimy git happy by giving him the job after what he's done to us" said George.
Mr.Weasley broke into their conversation," you guys should be happy you even have Hogwarts to go to this year, that Cornelious Fudge tried shutting it down"
"oh yeah what happened"- Harry
" Well he would have succeeded but practically all of England that had attended Hogwarts held a protest, so he was forced not to and had to listen to Dumbledor's orders of sending invitations to the giants and dementers and so on to come on our side, Fudge simply did not want to believe the You Know Who was gaining power, I cant believe that old fool wouldn't believe Dumbledore, well any ways he made a deal with Dumbledore."- Mr.Weasley
" what kind of a deal" -Harry
"Dumbledore insisted that we put charms around all the local villages and schools etc. to inform them of signs of you know who. The deal was that if they heard from Dumbledore and destruction was being done they would keep those charms up, but if there was no sound what's so ever that you know who had gained power he would take off the charms"-Mr.Weasley
" Have they heard anything about Volde- you know who?" - Harry
" That's the strangest thing about it, we haven't heard anything since the night he killed Cedric Diggory--"
Ron seeing the look on Harrys face at the mention of cedric diggory quickly changed the subject by saying," any ways we don't have to worry about that all we have to worry about is to get past snape this year and live to tell about it, You know maybe Hermione can brew us up a extra good sleeping potion which can have him sleeping for the rest of the semester"
And then they burst into a long conversation about who the new teacher would be and evil plans to get revenge on snape.
"Maybe we can trip him into one of his own poisonous potions and then give him the antidote when its way too late" - ron
" We shouldn't even give him the antidote" - George
" Yeah we should just watch him suffer and laugh at him"- Fred
"Besides me and Fred got an even better revenge plan on him for the end of the year"- George
" Really what is it" - harry
"not telling" - Fred
" come on you guys" - ron and ginny
"nope" both Fred and George
They spent some time bugging Fred and George, even Mrs.Weasley looked eager to know what they were going to do, but before they knew it they were back at the burrow. Harry wouldent of realized that they were there if Mr.Weasley hadn't of mentioned it for when he stepped out of the car he couldn't believe his eyes, the Burrow which was once a shaggy old garage with a couple rooms added to it now looked like a medium sized mansion.
Then Harry looked over to Fred and George remembering the "small" gift he had gave them. They winked and Harry was glad the money had been gone to something useful. Harry walked in not believing his eyes, everything was shining and brand new looking that even the small pile of dirt in the corner looked sparkly c lean.
"Come on Harry, I'll help you take that to my room" - Ron said breaking Harry's daze
When Harry walked into Ron's room he felt as though someone had squished a Florida orange in his face. The whole room from the ceiling to the pillow cases in ROns room was bright orange with , representing the color of Rons favorite Quidditch team the Chudly Cannons . In the middle wall of the room "Chudley Cannons " was painted with a few flying miniature broomsticks moving through the "C"s .
" So.......er............ do you like it?" ROn said once again breaking his daze.
" This is AMAZING" Said Harry making Ron blush.
