The Apparation Test
Harry woke up late that morning. He got up out of bed and at the end of his bed was a new dress robe. He looked at it stupidly as if it weren't real. Suddenly from the doorway came a voice, "yeah, George and Fred got it for you while they were buying mine and Ron's" Harry looked up and saw Ginny standing in the doorway. "Mum says that you should come down for breakfast. You need to get ready for your Apparation Test." Ginny and Harry looked at each other for a moment, and Ginny walked away as she began to blush. Harry thought about him and Ginny again and then soon realised he better be getting ready. He got changed into a casual robe and went downstairs. The Weasleys were sitting at the table, along with Hermione. Harry sat down and went to grab a piece of toast from the centre plate when his hand was touched by Ginny's, who had reached for a piece of toast just as he did. They quickly separated, Harry still holding onto his piece of toast. "Well, are you nervous about the test you three?" Mr weasley asked them as he chomped away into his toast. "I am," said Ron, "but at least these two will pass." He motioned towards Harry and Hermione. "Don't say that Ron, remember, think positive." Replied Hermione as she asked Mrs Weasley for some more egg. "Plus anyway," muttered Harry, "you beat me and Hermione on our first attempt." "Yeah, that was just luck." Said Ron miserably. They continued talking until all the food was gone. The three got up, along with Mr Weasley. "Let's go," Mr Weasley said, "Bye Molly." The group left and entered the lounge room. It was obvious that they were going to use Floo Powder. The Powder was passed around as Mr Weasley stepped forward and said, in a loud clear voice, "The Apparation Centre." In turn, the others each entered the fireplace and they appeared in the Apparation Centre. The floors were shining in the dim light coming from the chandelier above the reception desk. "Hello, we're here for the Apparation tests being held today." Said Mr Weasley to the receptionist. The receptionist had a shocking pink hairstyle that reminded Harry of Tonks. "Third floor. The test will take an hour at the most; you are more than welcome to take a seat while they are being tested." "Thankyou." Replied Mr Weasley. They walked down the corridor until they reached an elevator like that at the Ministry of Magic. The door opened and they walked inside. "Third floor, please." Said Mr Weasley. The doors shut and they began to go up. When the doors finally opened, they saw the testing room. Just a bit further up. "I'll wait here while you get tested. If you all pass, we'll Apparate home, if not we'll just go home via Floo powder." The three walked towards the testing room, and in the distance, they could hear Mr Weasley's voice, telling them to concentrate about all they had learned. "Good Luck guys." said Ron as they walked to the desk. "Name's please?" asked the old woman behind the desk. "Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger and Harry Potter." Said Hermione beaming. "Please go into the next room, there are teachers waiting to test you." Replied the teacher as she looked over her glasses to look at them. They walked into the next room, where the teachers sat. Three desks were set up. Harry knew what this meant. They would have to do a theory test. Harry was never really good at theory. He was a dead set failure. How could he pass when he could never concentrate? They all did the theory test and then completed the practical. Harry had gone better then he had anticipated. "Well Mister Potter, Good news, you passed." Harry was over the moon. He rushed back to the others. "Can you tell me if my friends passed?" harry asked, a hopeful tone in his voice. "Yes, Mister Potter, they passed too." Harry ran out to Ron and Hermione, who were sitting down on the chairs in the main testing room. "WE ALL PASSED! WE DID IT!" Harry said in a blur. They all hugged and all apparated to Mr Weasley. "You all passed then? I am glad you did! Now let's go home." Said Mr Weasley. There was a loud CRACK in the room as the four of them Apparated back to the burrow.
