"Well?" said Tonks.
"They are at Hogwarts," said Bill, "Well, anyway they're headed to Hogwarts. Who knows if they actually made it there yet."
Sirius barked in agreement. "How did you figure that out?" asked Hermione, "Did you continue asking questions to Lily until you guessed right?"
"For a while," said Bill, "about an hour. Then Dad came home from the Ministry. His team did a raid on a house in London. There was a typewriter and it typed everything that the people with in two feet were thinking."
"Cool," said Ron.
They followed him into the kitchen. There on the table was an old typewriter. Lily was perched on the back of a chair in front of it. She looked rather upset. Molly and Arthur sat on chairs next to her reading the paper. It already had a lot of writing on it.
Ron walked over to the table and read the paper from behind the snowy white owl. Sirius ran over to the table too and the typewriter started up again.
Lily: Cool I think I can do that
Lily: Cool
Lily: Going to Hogwarts
Lily: Harry!
Lily: This is no joke. It is really me!
Lily: Get back here!
Lily: What's his problem?
Sirius: Cool! Let me try!
Lily: This is not a toy Sirius
Sirius: Snape should learn to take a shower.
Lily: Now Sirius that wasn't nice
Sirius: So what? It's the truth.
"What does all of this mean?" asked Hermione.
"Well, James and Remus are going to Hogwarts. Then Harry came in and started reading the paper. He told us that it was a mean joke and stormed off," said Molly, "And then it means that Sirius hasn't changed much."
Everyone in the room started laughing at the last comment. Sirius barked happily and Lily gave him a nasty look.
The typewriter started clicking again.
Lily: Could someone please go look in on Harry?
"Sure, we'll go find him now," said Hermione pulling Ron along with her.
They found him in his and Ron's room. "Hey," said Ron, "What's up?"
"Nothing," Harry snapped back.
"Don't get mad at us mate," said Ron, "We didn't do anything."
"Harry does this have anything to do with Sirius?" Hermione asked.
"That dog is not Sirius," Harry snapped back at her.
"Hey, I never said anything about the dog," said Hermione.
"I'm sorry," Harry said calming down a bit, "It's just that no one is taking his death seriously. They are making fun of it. They are trying to make me believe that Hedwig is my mom and that the dog is Sirius. Now they are saying that Dad and Remus are heading to Hogwarts. They are making a very elaborate joke out of this. They even have a magical typewriter down there and are telling me that it is writing Hedwigs thoughts."
"Harry they are not trying to make you feel bad," said Ron.
"Then, why are they doing this?" Harry asked, "I mean I would like them to be alive just as much as everyone else. Even more. But, it is impossible. Mom, Dad, Remus and Sirius are all dead. They are not coming back no matter how much we wish."
"Are you going to be alright then," asked Hermione.
"Yeah, I'll be fine," said Harry, "As long as everyone stops joking."
"Alright," said Ron.
Ron and Hermione returned to the kitchen where everyone was watching the typewriter. It had something about saving Snape's life one the paper now.
"Is Harry going to be ok," asked Molly.
"Yes," said Hermione, "but we will have to do this in secret. Harry is getting mad that no one is taking Sirius's death seriously."
"Alright," said Bill, "It shouldn't take long to get them back into human form though. All they have to do is save Snape's life."
The typewriter started again.
Sirius: ALL!!!!
"Don't worry Sirius," said Hermione, "We'll help in anyway we can."
"What fun!" said Ron, "We get to put Snape's life in danger."
"Ron!" Mrs. Weasley shouted, "His life is already in danger enough."
"Just trying to be helpful," said Ron.
"They are at Hogwarts," said Bill, "Well, anyway they're headed to Hogwarts. Who knows if they actually made it there yet."
Sirius barked in agreement. "How did you figure that out?" asked Hermione, "Did you continue asking questions to Lily until you guessed right?"
