Awaiting the arrival of his best friend accompanied by a few other wizards, a red-headed boy sat in front of a fire eating Bernie Bots Every Flavor Beans that his twin brothers had sent the family after selling there newest invention: The Brain Booster. He was thinking of why Dumbledore had sent the letters and why he wanted them to visit the Ministry. He was interrupted by his thoughts when he heard a loud thud from outside his door. Ron ran outside with excitement while grapping a handful of umbrellas. It was raining outside so he supposed they might have flown into a tree. Mr. Weasley had wanted to put out a source of light to show the wizards their way down to a safe landing, but Mrs. Weasley had thought it would attract too much attention.
Outside, the four wizards and two witches lay scrambled either on the ground or in the tree right outside the door. "Is everyone ok?" Ron asked yelling over the howling wind and thunderous rain. He handed everyone an umbrella and lit up the tip of his wand to lead the way. Mrs. Weasley, who had heard all the excitement, was leaning in front of the fire to make it bigger. Dumbledore then asked "Since Ron and Ginny were the only ones there at that night, they are the only ones permitted to go. I'm very sorry if that causes you any trouble, but…"
"Oh no, no, no!" Ron's mother interrupted, "I trust you as much as I trust myself! Besides Fred and George are at their joke shop and I don't think Bill would want to go. Please, I don't want to take much of your time anyway. However, would you like to have something to eat?"
"No, I think we should get going; besides we have to gather up the others. Thank you Mrs. Weasley. Goodbye."
As everyone left the house, now accompanied by another wizard and witch, Harry asked Dumbledore, "Are we just going to get Hermione then leave? Cause you know, Neville Longbottom was there that night too. If Luna and Ginny are coming, he should come too. After all, he helped me fight the Death Eaters, he was the only person left who could've helped you know!"
"Very well then Harry, we will pick up Mr. Longbottom first. Since his house is just below us!" Dumbledore replied.
As Dumbledore and Harry descended aiming toward the ground, the others followed them. This time, they had no problem landing since the rain had ceased. Harry then got off his broom to knock on the door. But before he could knock, Neville's Grandma opened the door. "I'm afraid Neville won't be able to accompany you tonight. He has a fever and is lying in bed. Before he sees or hears you, I think it's best for you to depart immediately!"
"Well, I guess he can't come," Harry said as he turned around.

When they had reached Hermione's house, Harry began to whisper to Dumbledore, "Dumbledore, how come Neville's Grandma knew we were coming? You never sent him an owl. Did you?" Harry asked confused while sitting in front of Hermione's fire.
"Actually, Harry, I don't know. Although…"
"Do you think she's mad at me for bringing Neville with me to the ministry? Cause the same Death Eater that did, well, you-know-what to his parents almost tried doing the same to him. I'm sorry if it, er, I caused you any disrespect," Harry interrupted glumly.
"I think we should get going if we want to get there before dawn. What do you think?"
"I think Hermione is absolutely correct!" Lupin said. "We should get going if we still want to meet HIM. Today is the only day we could see HIM, unless you want to wait until next year!"
'Who are we gonna meet?' Harry thought to himself. 'What's going on here? How come I'm the only one who doesn't know what's going on?'
