A/N: if you see a typo or anything, just tell me about it and I'll try to fix it ASAP! Oh and can someone tell me what EXACTLY is a beta reader and how I can get one? I have a vague idea...but not really...=)
Chapter.2 The Sugar High Monster
"AUNTIE GINNY! AUNTIE GINNY!"
Said aunt groaned and pondered the use of toddler relatives. Ginny stuck her head out of her blanket and looked at the child perched on her belly. Wild red hair and shining blue eyes greeted her. Oh, thought Ginny, now I know why. They're cuteness makes the world go round.
"Play with me pleeeaaase!" This was said with a quick giddyup. Oof. "You've been asleep forever auntie! - Everyone's awake and Gramma cooked a bunch of yummy food! Do you know what I ate today? I ate pancakes and sausages and bacon and eggs! - I wanted to eat more but Daddy wouldn't let me! And he ate the most out of everyone! - Auntie! - Come ON! We can play school and house and rodeo and–OH! I can be the rider and you can be my bull! Won't that be fun?" Every now and then, she accentuated her little speech with more and more giddyups.
Ginny ducked her head under the cover. "Yes, Jean. Loads of fun."
Oh, joy.

A lone shadow passed through the road outside 12 Grimmauld Place. If someone were to take serious notice, they wouldn't be able to see the origin of such a shadow. It wasn't a bird, it wasn't a plane.
It was an escaped convict ready to rejoin the living world.

"Ok ok. I'm awake. Come on Jean. Uppity up if you want Auntie to get out of bed."
Jean, finally satisfied, stopped her impulsive rodeo motions long enough to get off the bed. But as soon as her feet hit the ground, she was yeehawin' and bull riding like the best of them.
Submitting to her niece's will, Ginny stretched and moved to get out of bed. Jean had grabbed one of Bill's ties and made it into a lasso...Which was now around Ginny's neck. She quickly disentangled herself and grabbed Jean up to throw her over her shoulder.
"AAH!! I'm being kidnapped! The Black Cowboy has taken me!"
Ginny decided to get back at her by tickling her mercilessly as they made their way downstairs.
At Jean's screams, the usual paranoid atmosphere of Grimmauld Place brought three Order members charging. Remus, Bill, and Tonks rushed in with wide eyes to see what had happened.
"Daddy, the Black Cowboy has taken me and you haven't done anything!" Jean was very disappointed. Sighs of relief passed over the small group.
"Right, love. The White Cowboy is here to steal the beautiful rodeo princess back from the Black Cowboy!"
Bill took on a stance not unlike to that of Peter Pan's. He then hooked his hands into his pockets like guns ready for a fight. Remus was failing to stifle a guffaw.
"Are you ready you monstrous Black Cowboy?" He sneered outstandingly to his little sister.
"That's Cowlady to you, you lowly do-gooder!" Her hands were now in the same position as Bill's. "Yeah! Have respect for the lady you lousy do-gooder!" Tonks put in supportively
The beautiful rodeo princess looked at the two redheads in front of her. They were about to have a shoot-out for her. For her! Now that had to mean something.
"One."
"Two."
But before the fateful word "draw" could be said, the Order front doors boomed open awakening the portrait of Sirius Black's mother.
"Nasty muggle lovers! To think that abomination of my flesh has given permission to these things to use this house! Get out! Get out!!"
No one took notice to the screaming painting. All wands were trained to the open door. But nothing was there.
Jean had been pushed behind her father where she carefully peaked around to see what was going on. She sensed the grown ups were scared or excited but she didn't see anything to be excited about.
Tonks quickly rushed forward to shut the door. Their wands were still at the ready. Ginny could almost see something on the walls, but it was too dim to really be anything.
"We should get back to lunch." Remus had hidden his wand but kept looking around nervously.
Bill quickly ushered his daughter into the kitchen and was followed by Tonks and Remus. Ginny still was inspecting a darker corner of the room when suddenly it flashed to the right and disappeared from view.
I'm going nutters. I need that my pain killers. Food. She shook her head and slowly stepped her way into the kitchen.
