It was unlike anything anyone would have ever seen. Charolette was kneeling on the ground, clutching a child to her chest, sobbing into her shoulder. Then about 7 small children around her tried their best to somehow get ahold of her. Molly Weasley wipped her tears on Arthur's hankerchief.
"Oh it's so sweet!" She wailed softly, attaching herself to her husbands arm. "I've not seen those little kids look so happy their entire time staying here!" Draco Malfoy broke out into a grin, as well did Severus Snape.
Then with a loud pop, a wave of black and bright colors swarmed the living room. Hermione gave out a loud cry, ducking behind Harry and James. It had to be one of two groups of people: The Rones children or their only remaining family. Harry peered around the door frame, and saw heads of black, brown, blonde, blue, red, pink and purple swarming around. All wearing identical black cloaks and whispereing. He grinned stupidly.
Not all the Rones children were from the same two people. Heavens no. Joanna Rones would have died long ago if she gave birth to that many children. About half of them were adopted as young children. But, they were all given the same blood and were all the same thing, Sorcerers. Then one of them, Candie Rones, the purple haired girl, spotted Harry.
She dashed out of the room, the rest of her siblings following behind her, and stopped dead as they saw Charolette being mauled by the youngest of them all. Even little baby Jack who was no more than 2 months old. Candie gave a little shriek. Causing Charolette's head to look up, her eyes still dull.
"Dena." She whispered, before dashing forward and attaching herself to the girl sitting on the floor. Before Draco could complain, the original occupants of the house were pushed back into the living room, since the Rones family took up a lot of space. After all, the did have an extreemly huge mansion to house the family.
*****
I was completely oblivious to anyone else in the room. I did hear Mrs. Weasley say something, but it was blured due to the fact that well, I had little children crying and laughing in my ears. I didn't care though, I had my babies back.
For some time, we just sat there. Eventually, a new addition was added to the family. A little baby, as Brianna had said, named Jack, was recently born somewhere. And from our mother. Then that hit me like a ton of bricks, she was still alive. But I had seen her dead and mangeled body on the ground at Voldemorts' feet. Oh that dosen't matter now.
Almost instantly, the room had been shaded by black. The other people in the room where pushed out. As I looked up, I saw Candie throw herself into me, knocking me off of my knees, and laying on the floor, with my sister on top of me. Laughter made me realize that all of my brothers and sisters were here. All of them.
*****
Another pop entered the living room, causing everyone in there to jump. Standing there, in the middle of the room, was Rebecca and Jack Rones, aunt and uncle to Charolette. Without a single word, nor nod of acknolledgment, they rushed into the foryer, crying out as they saw Charolette.
Draco gave a wide grin, sitting himself between Severus Snape and Remus Lupin. No one could keep the smiles off their faces. Since there was no chance of getting to Charolette, everyone sat back, making themselves comfortable. Harry, Ron, And Hermione and sprawled themselves on the floor in front of the small fire going, talking quietly about how their new jobs were going. Occasionally, James and Sirius would butt in, making snide remarks and teasing them.
"Ah." Remus said quietly, "Do you think everything is going to go back to normal anytime soon?" Severus gave a smirk and chuckle.
"Unless you can get all the Rones's out of this house, things should go back to normal. But I have this distinct feeling that, they're not going anywhere." James gave a laugh. After living with Severus for 5 years now, they had become friends, all of them.
"We could always turn their hair bright pink you know." He said, earning a clap on the back from Sirius.
"No." Remus said instantly. "Half their hair is already pink. Some purple, some blue, I saw a green and an orange too. Changing their hair color isn't going to do a thing. You can't get them to leave. Trust me, I've tried." The "golden" trio laying on the floor laughed, sitting up so they could talk to the older adults around them.
"We could come up with something sinister." Hermione said, earning a wide eyed expression from James and Sirius. "But, I'm not taking part in producing it, I'll just give the ideas. Hermione let her eyes drift to the foryer.
The Rones's were sitting down, against the walls and any space they could find. She noticed that Charolette was not among them.
"Charolette's gone." She hissed, watching Remus Lupin, Severus Snape, and Draco Malfoy dash out of the living room.
"Where is she!" Draco cried, looking around the room.
"Relax Drake my man." Rodreguiz said, sitting comfortably in the center of the foyer. "Rebecca, Renee and Candie took Dena up to get washed up and to look more presentable. No reason to be looking like you spent five and a half years in jail when you're out of it, now is there?" Rodreguiz gave a grin, before smacking another boy named Benji across the back. Benji returned the favor by punching his brother hard in the arm. "Oi! Benji! That is unfair play!" Several of the Rones's laughed, ignoring Draco, Severus and Remus.
"How long have they been up there?" Remus asked, his arms crossed over his chest and a concentrated look on his face.
"Oh, pretty much since we got here., there was an awful lot of dirt and mold over her. I imagin they did a triple wash down or something. No worries, they brought her clothes and earrings and such. I think they're going to to help her get those back in." Benji said simply, as if it was no big deal. However, Remus panicked.
Everyone seemed to sence his panic moment, for all the Rones's looked at him strangely, eyeing him, half expecting to see him run up the stairs screaming. But Remus held himself together the best he could.

Rebecca, Renee and Candie had lead me upstairs to the bathroom farthest down the hallway. Thankfully, they started a bath for me. Though, I had said, with my raw voice, that a bath was not enough to clean me. A shower would be acceptable, but they insisted I soak in the tub for a while.
The water was warm. Very warm. It was enough to make me drowsy, that's for sure. Sleep had come by very hard in Azkaban, and I would find myself staying up for days at a time, not even taking a 10 minute cat-nap. Gently but firmly, my sisters and aunt did a brief washover of my body, then let the water in the tub run out. They started the tub again, and then turned it into a shower. I stood up carefully, then letting the waterfall hit me.
It took two full showers to completely rid me of all the dirt, scum and mold that was caked into my skin and hair. But nevertheless, I got every inch of me clean. And while I was there, I asked for my shaver and my gell. And I shaved my legs so they were once again, clean and smooth. Oh it felt so good to be back. Though, I would be better outside of Grimwald Place Number Twelve. Ah, that was my only problem really. For the moment anyway.
I had no clue what was going on downstairs. Though, while I was putting on the clothes that Candie and Rebecca had picked out for me; my black baggy pants, my Linkin Park belt, my black and cerran rubber bracelttes, several of my necklaces, my black Good Charlotte t-shirt and my black and cerran shoes, I swear I heard Benji cry out, then followed by a loud smack of some sort.
Now there was only one more thing to do after my hair was spelled dry: put my pericings back in. That was coming as a small problem. Rebecca was well aware that I had spent 5 years without any earrings in, so that they closed up gradually. However, some had not closed since they were the pericings I had the longest. Meaning the bottoms of my ears.
Easily, I pushed some black hoops through, then some diamond studs. Halfway up my ear, was where I had to repeirce them. And all the way up as well. Candie decided that it was best to do my ears by a spell that she knew. And belive me, it hurt like hell. It was like having my ears peirced for the first time up in the cartalige. But the pain slowly ceased. She used the same spell for my eyebrow. My tongue still had it's ball in there, I just had to take the charm off of it. My lip was the last thing to be repeirced.
Renee said that I needed to do that myself. And do it the muggle way, with a needle since we didn't have a gun to use. Candie had left and came back with a needle, ice cube and apple slice. Though, I noticed as she came in, there was a worried look on her face.
Apparently, Remus, Draco and Snape had seen the needle, ice cube and apple piece. And since Remus had lived the muggle way, he knew what was going on. She said that Benji, my brother with the most pericings, had jumped up and asked him to go for a walk while repeircing my lip. Out of all honesty, I wasn't worried about it, nor was I scared. I peirced my brother Javen's lip for him. So I knew what I was doing. It was just, Remus was what was bothoring me.
I pushed all thought of them out of my head, and placed the ice cube to my lip. After 20 minutes, I couldn't feel a thing, and I was drooling something awful. Rebecca declared that I was good and numb and that it was time to shove the needle though.
Holding the apple to the inside of my lip, I located my old hole where it used to be peirced, I held the needle point to the skin. With a quick little shove, the needle went through and stopped in the apple. Candie let out a little relived sigh. I smirked. She hated sticking needles into anything. Always made her nervous.
Then to everyones surprise, Remus burst through the door, Sirius behind him, with Benji and Jack right behind them, yelling at them to come back down stairs. The look on Remus and Sirius's face was just hilarious. I swear, their eyes were thinking I was mutalating myself. Though, I had to turn the needle to make the hole in my lip bigger. Sirius Black about fainted. Rebecca shoved them out, and let Benji and Jack stay in to guard the door from anymore onlookers. I laughed slightly, even though my voice was still raspy.
Finally, I had the hole big enough. Candie handed me my lip hoop with the diamond in it. I put it through the hole, clasped it shut, and I was ready to go. Looking at myself, something was missing. Benji said I didn't have my eyeliner nor mascara on. You have got to thank brothers for noticing these things before your sisters do. Belive it or not, Benji put my eyeliner on for me. He wore it himself, since he liked the way it looked. No, he wasn't gay. He was just my rocker brother. A rocker like me.
Oh Merlin, It was feeling too good to be back with my family again. To see Draco again. Though, the first I do when I get back downstairs, I pulling Draco and Severus into a hug. It feels like it's been forever and a day before I had seen them. How I missed them so.
