Twisted Paths
Part 3
They went threw the barrier with ease, there Harry saw everyone that Hermoine and Ron had said plus a few of the teachers. Fred and George joined up with Lee Jordan almost instantly and Harry spotted Malfoy looking very out of place with out his cronies Crabbie and Goyle as soon as Harry looked at him Malfoy came over.
"Of course the school has to go in precision because of Potter… and that means we all have to go back. Thanks Potter" Harry's face went red
"Well if it wasn't for Harry, you may not have existed Malfoy…. He could of gone after your parents first," Hermoine said quickly. It was Malfoy's turn to go red, which was a first for him.
"I don't have time for this…" Malfoy snapped and went into the train.
"Well you 3 must go on the train I'll see you next year." Mr and Mrs Weasly waved and went through the barrier.
"Why do I get the feeling something bad's going to happen?" Hermoine asked.
"You to? I thought it was just me," Harry said honestly. The trio got their belongings on the train and found a nearly empty carriage except for a black dog and a person all to familiar to them.
"Professor Lupin!" Harry, Hermoine and Ron exclaimed, they then noticed the dog.
"Snuffles… what are you doing here?" Harry asked.
"We thought we should keep an eye on you this year, don't worry he wont get caught will you Snuffles?" Snuffles shook his head as if to say no.
"Professor Lupin are you coming back to teach?" Ron asked.
"Yes I am… Professor Dumbledore convinced me to come back plus it gives Snuffles the perfect way to hide…" Lupin explained. The train ride went by quickly and before they knew it they where back at Hogwarts.
Professor Mc Gonagall came up almost instantly.
"Mr Weasly, Professor Dumbledore would like to see you in his office, you two can continue on." Harry and Hermoine looked started as they saw Mc Gonagall go up to Fred and George and tell them the same thing. Harry and Hermoine went on to the Great Hall.
"What do you think has happened?" Harry whispered to Hermoine.
"I don't know… it must be a family problem…." Hermoine assumed.
"Welcome back students, Professor Dumbledore has been called for an important matter, he is still in the school but asked me if I could do the opening introduction so here goes. I know all of you didn't think you would be back so soon, and I know the tables have less people than they normally do but that is because some parents still don't want to believe that the You-know-who is back and think there students would be alright at home" Professor Mc Gonagall said.
Ron, Fred and George all came back looking pale. Fred and George sat down next to Lee and said nothing while Professor Dumbledore took over the speech. Ron sat down next to Harry and said nothing even when the food came in.
"Ron what's wrong?" Hermoine asked concerned
"I'll tell you later" Ron said tonelessly. Harry and Hermoine looked at Ron worriedly. Ron was silent up until they went to the Gryffindor's Common room.
"Ron its okay you should tell them…" George said just as tonelessly as Ron did before.
"Alright I will!" Ron said angrily, which shocked Harry and Hermoine; Ron was never that angry towards his brothers or Ginny.
"Mum and Dad…" Ron said unable to finish the sentence.
"Alright I'll tell them" Fred exploded
"Mum and Dad are DEAD"
