"Er, Aunt Petunia?" Harry asked as he approached his fallen aunt.
"Is she ok?" Emma asked.
"Just shock I reckon." Harry said, "Don't worry about it. Pavarti!" Harry called. Pavarti appeared in the kitchen and smiled.
"Yes, oh, who are you?" Pavarti frowned when she saw Emma.
"Emma Potter." Emma said holding her hand out. Pavarti smiled.
"Pavarti Patil."
"Hang on, wasn't your surname Malfoy? You play for the Gryffindor team?"
"Well, yeah. I'm actually Emma Malfoy but I'm really a Potter. I'm Harry's sister, adopted at birth" Emma explained. Pavarti nodded uncertainly and turned to Harry.
"What did you want?" Pavarti asked. Harry pointed at Petunia, "Oh, leave her" Pavarti said, a smile playing on her face.
"Boy, what's going on-" Vernon burst into the kitchen. When he saw Emma his face went instantly red. "You!" Emma, Harry and Pavarti turned to see Vernon glaring at Emma. Emma looked slightly alarmed and got her wand out.
"Uncle Vernon, this is Emma, my sister." Harry said. Pavarti and Harry had their wands out and were pointing them at Vernon. Vernon snarled at them and looked at Emma.
"I know you freakish types, always using that strange stuff to make yourselves look younger." Vernon said.
"My mum died before I was even born. How could I possibly be Lily Potter?" Emma asked, slightly annoyed. There Vernon went annoying another person Harry cared about. At this rate Vernon might be killed by someone other then a deatheater.
"Then how are you alive?" Vernon asked.
"Magic." Emma said. "Merlin, you lived with these people all your life?" Emma asked Harry as she turned to face him.
"Wait until you meet our cousin Dudley." Harry said.
"Oh, I really don't like him." Pavarti said.
"Same" Cho said coming in. "He just tried to kiss me. Urgh, it's like kissing a pig." Cho said repulsed. She shook slightly and looked at Emma then to Harry slightly confused. Harry rolled his eyes
"Cho, this is my sister Emma. Emma this is Cho." Harry said.
"Jenny's told me a bit about you." Emma said. "She doesn't really like you much." Emma gave Cho a pleasant smile. Cho frowned slightly and nodded.
"Well, I'm much inclined to return those feelings." Cho said. "Nothing to do with her personality of course because I don't really know her."
"She still fancies you." Pavarti whispered to Harry. Harry looked at Pavarti, who turned away and looked innocent.
"Why are all of you here? Why's that girl here?" Vernon shouted at Harry.
"I wanted to introduce her to Aunt Petunia but she's passed out so, Emma can you go back. Pavarti, you're on the first look out for tonight. I'll go and check my room for anything I might need and Cho, we'll sleep in the living room where Pavarti can wake us up easily." Harry said taking charge. Pavarti nodded and walked out of the room.
"Can I stay?" Emma asked.
"No it's too dangerous. Voldemort is out looking for you as well."
"Voldemort can't kill me. I've already told you this." Emma said. "I don't know why but Voldemort cast this spell on me which kinda means I get his powers if he gets killed and he doesn't really want that." Harry sighed.
"Just go anyway." Harry said, "I can't risk you getting killed. I'm not losing the rest of my family." Emma gave Harry an understanding smile.
"Bye everyone." She said before disappearing with Fawkes in a flash of gold and red.
"Cho do you want to revive aunt Petunia while I go upstairs." Harry asked. Cho nodded and headed towards Petunia. Vernon looked like he was going to shout out but as Harry and Cho hadn't put away their wands he decided not to do anything but storm up to his room.
"Hi Harry." Said that familiar voice that Harry was in love with. Harry opened his eyes to see Jenny sitting on a log in the middle of a forest.
"How is it that you always seem to chose our dream dates?" Harry asked sitting down next to Jenny. Jenny gave a tired sigh and shrugged.
"I just thought it was romantic." Jenny said, "I mean the sky is spotless it's quiet, secluded." Jenny stopped as Harry gave her a kiss.
"It's always quiet and secluded in our minds." Harry said. Jenny gave him a sad smile,
"True." She said. Harry frowned, he didn't like her tone of voice.
"What's wrong?" Harry asked. Jenny shrugged.
"I don't know." She said, she pulled away from Harry and stood up. She looked at the sky and sighed, "I was really hoping we could spend the day together. It's past Christmas now, it's almost three in the morning and I'm just really upset that I couldn't spend any time with you. Emma didn't tell me much when she got back, Mum won't tell me a thing and you, my boyfriend, are also being all secretive. You're not supposed to be secretive." Jenny said. She was quite distressed over it and Harry could tell that she was slightly agitated. Harry got up as well and put his arms around Jenny.
"I'm really sorry. If I could tell you anything I would" Harry said. Jenny turned to Harry.
"Then tell me. No one will hear us." Jenny said,
"It's not as simple as that." Harry frowned, "Do you remember why I had to take Occlumency? To keep Voldemort out of my mind. He might be listening in right now." Harry said. Jenny sighed and looked at the sky. "You're still pissed off." Harry said sadly. "I promise you I'll make up for it when I get home. I swear, I will tell you everything some time. I just can't tell you now." Jenny nodded.
"You know. I think times are changing. There was a time where mum would tell me absolutely everything, she wouldn't take orders from anyone but now she's secretive, quiet and she does everything the ministry wants her to do. That's not mum." Jenny said. She sat down on the log they had just been sitting on and Harry joined her. He took her hand and looked at her. "I'm not sure why I'm telling you this now but I think you already know. I never actually had any parents. I mean most of my childhood mum was never around, I always stayed with uncle Remus or Castra would look after me. I never had any friends until I met you, Ginny and the others and the only thing I had going was my music. I should just drop out of school and try and get a career in music. That way I could be with you and do what I love at the same time." Jenny said. Harry pulled her into a hug and kissed her forehead. Her hair, even in the dream was soft, silky smooth and smelled as it always did.
"Well, I'll always be here for you." Harry said, "You know that-"
"Harry" Cho whispered, interrupting his dream date. Harry opened his eyes a fraction. Cho was standing by the window, peering out. "There are a lot more deatheaters around." She whispered. Harry was about to get up when he felt Pavarti's head on his legs. He gently lifted it and slipped his legs free. When he put Pavarti's head back down she rolled over on the sofa and stayed asleep. Harry went to the window and peered out. Cho was right. It seemed that they were waiting for something, or someone. Harry looked at Cho.
"Go and get April," Harry whispered. "I'll wake up Pavarti and get my family out. If we're not here then we'll be at Grimmauld place." Cho nodded and went into the kitchen to apparate. Harry prodded Pavarti gently.
"What?" Pavarti muttered.
"We need to get my family out. Can you make Portkeys?" Harry whispered.
"I don't know. I was about to start that on my training." Pavarti said.
"Ok, well. There are deatheaters outside so we're going to have to get my family out of the house." Harry said. Pavarti nodded as she took that in.
"Right." She said simply.
"Keep an eye out." Harry said. Pavarti nodded and slowly got up. Harry went upstairs and went into Vernon and Petunia's bedroom.
"Aunt Petunia." Harry said. Petunia slowly opened her eyes like she wasn't truly asleep but was pretending to have woken up from a deep sleep.
"What is it?" She asked.
"We're surrounded, I need to get you, uncle Vernon and Dudley to safety." Harry said. Petunia bolted upright.
"Aren't we safe here?" She squealed. Harry shook his head. Vernon had woken up now and he glared at Harry. Harry turned and picked up a brush.
"Portus." He said while thinking of Grimmauld place. The brush glowed blue for a while then returned to it's usual colour. "Hold this, both of you." Harry said giving Petunia the brush. "I need to get Dudley." Vernon looked like he was going to shout at Harry but Harry was in Dudley's room before he could say anything. Dudley's room was covered in pictures of half naked Muggle women and had a Playstation and so forth on the floor of the messy room.
"Oi, Dudley!" Harry shouted. Dudley bolted upright and stared at Harry. Harry had to turn away, he didn't fancy seeing his cousin in his boxers.
"What do you want?" Dudley growled.
"Put something on!" Harry said looking away. Dudley reluctantly put on a t-shirt and then a pair of trousers. "Follow me."
"Why would I do that?" Dudley asked.
"Because if you don't you'll die." Harry said. Dudley's eyes narrowed but he obviously thought what Harry said was true or he wouldn't have followed Harry to Petunia and Vernon's room. "Hold the brush."
"Where are we going?" Vernon growled.
"My house." Harry said. "And don't shout at the house elves, they're just there to help."
"HARRY!" Pavarti screamed. "They're attacking." Harry frowned and turned to his relatives as they disappeared.
Ron smiled at Hermione as she pulled away for a slight break.
"You know. I now wonder, why didn't I go out with you before." Hermione said cheekily. Ron stroked her hair and kissed her lips gently.
"I don't know why I didn't ask you out sooner." Ron said. Hermione grinned playfully and was about to kiss him again when a group of people entered the room. Hermione jumped in fright and nearly fell off Ron's lap.
"Bloody hell. Can't we get any privacy?" Ron said loudly. He looked at Hermione, who was looking at the people who had just arrived. Ron looked at them and instantly recognised them. They were all wearing their sleeping clothes except Harry's cousin. They also all looked so scared and quite pale.
"Aren't those Harry's relatives?" Hermione whispered to Ron. Petunia looked at them while Vernon glared at Ron. He obviously hadn't forgotten the time Ron broke Harry out of Privet drive, or when Mr. Weasley had destroyed half of his living room.
"Hi." Ron said sheepishly.
"You, I know you." Vernon said getting up. Hermione leapt off Ron's lap and stood up with him.
"Mr. Dursley, you really don't want to hurt Ron." Hermione said, "I know this must be kind of scary for you but-"
"How will you know what I feel. You freaks don't feel anything we feel." Vernon said.
"Actually I do. I was born a Muggle." Hermione said.
"He destroyed my living room." Vernon said pointing to Ron.
"Yes, I do remember him telling me about that." Hermione said, forcing herself not to smile, "but you really don't-" There were two cracks and Harry and Pavarti apparated into the living room. Both looked a little worse for wear.
"Ok." Harry said slightly out of breath. "Pavarti, you can go back to Lavender's" Pavarti nodded and apparated away. Harry went to Ron and Hermione, "Hi guys."
"What are they doing here?" Ron asked.
"Attack at their house. Had to bring them here." Harry said. "Has April or Cho arrived yet?"
"No, were they supposed to have?"
"Boy!" Vernon bellowed. Harry looked at him.
"What have I said about calling me that. Sit down and shut up for a change. I have some work to do." Harry shouted at Vernon.
"No, you will explain to me this instant what has happened!" Vernon said
"I would like to know that myself." Petunia said.
"Can I go to sleep?" Dudley asked. Harry looked at them and then to Ron and Hermione. They simply shrugged.
"We were just trying to get some privacy." Ron said. Hermione nudged him quite hard and he put a hand to his side.
"I told you to use the study." Harry said.
"Buckbeak was in there." Hermione said, "and Jenny's locked herself in the music room."
"Did you try the bedroom?" Harry asked like it was obviously the next place to go. Hermione and Ron looked at each other. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"What?" Ron asked.
"What's happened to our home?" Petunia asked Harry. Harry put his hands together.
"Well, the good news is that your house is more or less in one piece, the bad news is that you'll be staying with me for a bit." Harry said.
"More or less? What do you mean more or less, we only left the house a few moments ago." Vernon said standing up and leaning over the table. Ron and Hermione both got their wands out and pointed them at Vernon. Harry stood between them and Vernon slowly sat down again.
"You see, the thing with Magic is that it can destroy things very quickly." Harry said.
"What?" Vernon asked, he was rising again.
"Didn't you just hear him?" Ron asked, "Your house is destroyed."
"Not entirely." Harry added.
"I'll go and get Shoner." Hermione said putting her wand away. As she passed Ron she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and left the room.
"Now, you can stay in the study." Harry said.
"Buckbeak." Ron reminded him.
"Oh, right." Harry frowned, "Um, then, you can stay in Fred and George's old room."
"Who?" Dudley asked.
"My brothers." Shoner walked into the room and looked at Harry.
"Hermione miss said you called." Shoner said.
"Take my family up to whatever room is free and set up the temporary beds." Harry said. Shoner nodded and looked at the Dursleys.
"What the hell is that thing?" Dudley asked pointing at Shoner.
"I is the Potter family house elf sir." Shoner said bowing,
"A what?" Dudley asked.
"Just follow him." Harry snapped. Once they had left Harry turned to Ron.
"I'll tell April when she gets back. I'm going to stay here for a bit." Ron said.
"Waiting for Hermione?" Harry asked. Ron went red.
"No!" Ron said, "Do you think I'm that bad?"
"You've seen me and Jenny. You can't get worse then us." Harry said.
"True, I suppose." Ron muttered.
"I'll tell Hermione to come back down for you." Harry said. Ron went an even deeper shade of red and Harry left the room. He found Hermione about to go into her room "Hermione, Ron wants you." Harry said with a cheeky smile. She looked at him blushing slightly.
"You don't mind about us do you?" Hermione asked nervously.
"No, why should I?" Harry asked. Hermione nodded.
"Good, so, did Ron say why he wanted me?" Hermione asked.
"No, but I think he might just want to explore the inside of your mouth again." Harry said pretending to think. Hermione went even redder and thanks Harry quietly before heading towards the kitchen.
