Setting: The 'eighth' year, I suppose. The members of the famous trio are all 18 and out of Hogwarts but maybe not for good. (muahahahaha)
"I'm home" said a tired voice that now belonged to a man
"Get out of my bloody house boy!" Uncle Vernon shouted "Don't give me that confused look either, I know very well your eighteen now and you can move out now so GO!"
"You know my age!?" Asked Harry quite sarcastically. "Then I suppose you know I can use magic legally now right? I could blow your head off if I wanted, right now, in two measly seconds."
"Y...you'd be put in that bloody prison of yours boy! You wouldn't dare!"
Harry pulled the wand from his pocket and pointed it at Uncle Vernon's very pudgy nose. "How sure are you of that?" He threatened.
Uncle Vernon now looked quite afraid. " I...I...er..."
Aunt petunia waltzed in just then "Vernon do you want potatoes or...AHHHHH!" She caught sight of Harry and his wand. Harry lowered it and stuck up his nose in triumph.
"Tell my cousin he's a pig!" Said Harry and stomped out the door, slamming it behind him. Dudley poked his head out from the corner, his cheeked wiggled as he did so. He looked much worse than any pig.
Harry's things were already outside on the side walk, he had rehearsed this dramatic exit several times and did not want to go back in there after that looking for his trunk. He grabbed it and apperated to platform 9 3/4. The train was gone, and it was weird being here for reason other than going to Hogwarts "Just in time Harry!" Hermionie called sweetly from the arms of Ron " You'll never guess what! We just went and...Gosh Harry we really went out and...we...Oh Ronald you tell it." She looked as if she were about to burst with excitement.
"We have a house Harry, Just bought it" Said Ron
"Wow" said Harry amazed. "Really? Where?" He had noticed that Hermionie was wearing a long, red dress gown and Ron in a blue tuxedo. He didn't speak of it however but seemed more interested in their expensive attire rather than their house.
"Just near Diagon Ally, and there's a bunch of open spots near us Harry" Said Hermionie "You still need a place don't you?"
Harry nodded coolly
"Well" Said Hermionie " You can stay with us until you find the right one, Harry, Oh and there is more good news...for later"
Harry smiled. "Thanks Where is it exactly, so I know where to go"
"16 Tippet Lane." Said Ron
"And what's the other big news?" Asked Harry
"You'll see when you go there" said Hermionie
"Well, When can we go?" Asked Harry
"We can go now!" She said "follow me then". Then she Appeared with a crack , Ron followed, then Harry.
They appeared before a magnificent two story white house with blooming rosebushes along the edge. Harry was quite worried as to how they had paid for this house "Come on then" Urged Hermionie They walked in and Ron plopped down lazily on the large, blue plush sofa. "Sit Harry dear" He sat next to Ron. " Ill go make brunch. Coffee Harry?" He nodded "Please Hermionie" and she left.
"Here comes the big news now, She's Ten" said Ron
"She-!?" Harry started, sounding quite confused. He was cut off when the magnificent 10-year-old , stood at the balcony and looked down at Harry and Ron. Short and dainty you could tell by looking her skin was soft." Goodness me I'm not decent! Father in what mind are you to bring a guest to the house at this hour. You know that I was to bathe just now, so what possible reason do you..."
She was cut off by Ron. " Harry this is Ammi, Ammi, meet Mr. Harry Potter"
Harry looked up at the girl, she was not tall in the least, unlike Ron, and wore her light pink Bath robe and a matching towel, wrapped on her head. She was barefoot. "She isn't...It couldn't...you wouldn't...You...I...how can...must've been 10 years?" He muttered
"We adopted her last month, she's a pureblood witch, and she's 10 as you know, Oh! her birthday's this weekend." said Ron
"Well Ill Have to buy her something then" Said Harry, smiling sweetly at Ammi
"She'd prefer a lock of your hair, Worships you, she does" Whispered Ron jokingly
Ammi's eyes widened as she glanced at his face, scanning it for the scar. She then ran into her room and slammed the door.
"Sorry, she doesn't really know we know you yet" Said Ron modestly
"Well why did she run" asked Harry
"Harry! You're famous! Your in all her new textbooks!"
"So?"
"It might not seem like a big deal to you but she's probably, embarrassed ,for you to see her, especially in her bath things"
"Well that's a funny thought huh? me?"
"I suppose so but you'd be used to it by now Id hope"
"Um Ron?"
"Yes?"
"I hate horribly to ask. but where did you get the money, for the house, the decorations, the clearly expensive cloths you and your child are wearing... Oh ...Oh now I do feel horrible"
"Goodness I haven't told you!? Fred and George! They told me what you did that year when we were fourteen and you won all that money."
Harry looked down, He remembered that year, Voldemort's year, Cedric's year, Moody's year, It was not a happy memory.
"But they earned it all back and more, they're joke shop is a huge hit, more popular than Zonkos I think, they're filthy rich Harry and topped me off with a large sum last year"
"How much?"
"That's not important, but then this year I married Hermionie, we bought this house and adopted Ammi. How about you Harry?"
"Oh nothing much, not yet anyway, I had hoped on becoming an auror-"
"Passed the newts well enough didn't you? Strait O's I can't believe you sometimes Harry"
"-and also of Joining the quidditch team for England"
"Do they need a seeker?"
"They will, when they see its me!" Said Harry holding his head up, then the two burst out laughing together
Ammi Came gliding down the stairway, Her hair pulled in a tight bun, Wearing a straight, light blue, silk evening gown, matching house slippers, and clutching a large book. She sat down daintily beside Harry and her cheeks went red. She smiled, embarrassed, and opened the book to the middle. "Evening Mr. Potter, Having a pleasant one I do hope"
"Yes Ammi, Quite, Thank you" Said Harry "How about you?"
Ammi's head burrowed between her shoulders, and she grinned wider. "Absolutely perfect since just now, I had no idea that my father was a friend of you Mr. Potter. I know just everything about you. For example...here!" She pointed to her book. "Attended Hogwarts from 1991 through 1997! Participated in the Triwizard tournament in 1994 and won! Oh Harry I am you most loyal fan, um, I heard Father, A lock of Hair would be a magnificent present" She giggled
"Very impressive Ammi" Said Harry
Ammi gave an extremely wide grin
Hermionie walked in carrying a large covered Platter " I made cucumber, asparagus, sprout sandwiches for brunch today!" She called. The smile from Harry's Face dropped, He faked a grin but looked quite discussed.
"She's only kidding mate!" Said Ron laughing
Hermionie opened the cover and handed Harry and Ron each a platter of Fresh meat and cheese finger sandwiches. Nobody was shy in the least bit to help themselves.
