Chapter 3

The meeting was over; Mr Weasly wandered over to Dumbledore who was talking quietly to Mrs Figg.

"., I'm glad we've settled that, goodbye"

"Albus?"

"Yes Arthur"

"I need you advice."

"On what matter?"

"Well it's about my daughter."

"Yes."

"Well you remember the large magical working that took place at my house earlier on today?"

"Yes I had heard about it.could you shed any light on the matter?"

"Well, sir it seems that."

Dumbledore continued to stare at him with those piercingly blue eyes.

"Well my wife just told me that my youngest daughter.is not actually my own child.or hers for that matter."

Dumbledore looked concerned at this, "then how did she come to be in your family?"

"Well it seems sir that my wife found her on the kitchen table one morning and decided to keep her,"

"But to bring you back to the point of the great magical working over at your house today."

"Well sir it seems that Ginny's real parents are dead but her extended family appears to want her to return.she had a powerful enchantment on her grandfather found her and decided it was time for her to come home but."

"you are not sure that the grandfather is really a relative.for all you know he could have been a death eater"

"yes that was my reasoning in coming to ask you."

"I will come to your house now"

with that they apparated.

Mrs Weasly looked over at Ginny, she had made a special effort to cook her favourite meal but Ginny had eaten very little,

"Are you sure you don't want any more, dear?"

"She won't eat very much Mrs Weasly," said Hermione, "elves can survive for a very long time with no food at all"

"Oh"

Mrs Weasly glanced up at the family positioning clock, Arthur's hand was coming back to home, she rushed through to the hall, Dumbledore was standing there next to her husband.

"hello, Dumbledore, Hermione seems to know a lot about ginny,"

"I can imagine that miss granger would have read books about elves"

"hello miss weasly,"

"hello professor Dumbledore"

"who was it who visited you this morning? What did he do?"

"his name was Elrond, he said that his wife had woven a.spell over me.he removed it.now I cant do any magic any more.but I feel that there is another type of magic that I will be able to learn,"

//of course you will//

//you speak the tongue of the elves?//

//yes I lived on middle earth when I was younger, I can tell your parents that it is safe for  you to leave for middle earth.but I think that there are too few good wizards left in middle earth.I will ask Elrond tonight if he can ask the lady Galadriel for consul// Dumbledore switched lanague "I will return when ginnys grandfather does" and with that he apparated.

"ummm.ginny.what were you talking to Dumbledore about? Is everything ok?"

"yes mum everything is fine.Dumbledore knows Elrond, he wants to talk to him when  Elrond returns.

Hermione was sitting in her room reading when she heard the door open,

"Ginny?"

"Hermione.can I come in?"

"sure" she said putting down her book, can you sleep?" Ginny shook her head, "according to a book I read elves cant sleep very easily, would you like to borrow the book? It had information on how to go into an elven trance.that's how elves sleep.you know before today I didn't really think that elves existed.I thought that the book was just written for a laugh.hey Ginny come over here.you don't look to good."

"its just this big change that I cant understand why must I leave, but something in my heart tells me that I must.Dumbledore told me that there were not enough wizards in middle earth anymore.he said he would ask Elrond to consult the lady Galadriel on the matter of who should come to middle earth, but something tells me that you will not be coming."

"why not?"

"you must stay you will be needed in this world"

"I never used to trust prophecy but your words have meaning unlike those of professor Trelawney."

"that is a serious insult.but I will not take it as one."

"I am sorry.would you like me to try and teach you some muggle games?"

"like what?"

"cards?"

"cool"

Ginny was in the kitchen waiting as was the rest of her family and professor Dumbledore. Hermione had woven her hair into sensible yet intricate braids. She was straining her ears for any unusual sounds, her ears caught a soft foot fall in the garden followed by more, "he is here" she cried with relief,

"Really how can you tell?"

"I heard him in the garden," Elrond's face appeared at the door.

"May I come in?"

"Yes come and join us"

//good morning granddaughter//

//good morning grandfather//

//good morning Elrond//

//who are you? //

//I am Dumbledore, Gandalf's brother, I contacted you the other day//

//you wished to hear the lady's consul//

//yes, and as to her consul what is it? //

//the lady Galadriel has told me that harry and his friends cannot leave this land at such a time as this as they are vitally important to the fate of this world but she did mention that it would be advisable for the twins to come//

"excuse me," interrupted fred, "translation break"

"We were discussing who should go to middle earth with Ginny" explained Dumbledore, " there are too few wizards there for good to be able to prevail"

"But..." said Ginny "Ron, Harry and Hermione can not come they are vital to the survival of this world.it would seem wise for Fred and George to come"

"Cool"

"Wicked"

"do you mean that I am going to have to cope with the loss of three children all at once?"

"no," said Elrond, "I have a ring here, all you have to do is write a letter then say their name and they will receive the letter so long as they do not lose their ring, will that make their absence more bearable?"

"Yes"

"Well then," said Elrond, "there are things that will need to be sorted out on the other side of the portal.are you twins ready?"

"Yes"

"There is no time for lengthily goodbyes I am afraid nairmaire (sorry my elvish is a bit ahem)"

Ginny followed Elrond out and was followed in turn by Fred and George, Elrond lead them over to the hedge

"You must walk between these two stones, let us depart
