Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of its characters. Now on with the story.

Question: Is Bill the oldest or is Charlie? Oh well, I'll say Charlie and if I'm wrong tell me and I'll correct it later.

Anything I say about planet alignment and stars, which I know absolutely ZIP about, is just me BSing it to make the story sound better.

Chapter Nine

The group gathered around the fireplace right after everyone had left on the Hogwarts Express. Jordan looked as if he was about to be sent before a firing squad.

"I am so not looking forward to this," Jordan moaned.

"You're not?!" Alexia replied with a verbal growl, "Think of what your mother will do to me when she hears about us!"

"Please don't remind me," Jordan groaned, "How much long to live do you think we have?"

"Five seconds or more," Alexia replied, "It depends on how fast the floo network is going now and whether or not she's at home."

"Great..." Jordan groaned and disappeared into the floo network with a yell of "The Burrow!"

Alexia turned to Harry. "How long do you think it'll be before you can go live with Sirius?"

Harry shrugged uncertainly. "I have no idea. I think I heard him say something about rebuilding mom and dad's house at Godric's Hollow before I could go live with him."

"Dang, all well, looks like Dursleys until your seventeen-"

Harry pounced on his sister, effectively cutting her off.

"I'm only sixteen! You expect me to live with those imbeciles for another year?! You must be joking!"

"It'll take at least a half year or more to rebuild the place and then refurnishing it will take about half another year. Considering that it's a mansion then it's not a joke. Besides Sirius has his own place."

Harry groaned deeply and was about to swing a fist at her, when Alexia jumped into the fireplace, yelled "The Burrow!", and disappeared in a flash of light. Harry seethed in anger for a couple seconds before jumping into the network. He concentrated and surprised everyone, everyone that is besides five of the Weasleys and Alexia, by calmly stepping out of the fireplace as if walking through a door.

Right after Harry appeared, Arthur and Molly Weasley and the three eldest boys Apparated out of thin air. Bill and Charlie had decided to visit for the summer. Percy had forgotten something up in his room when he moved out. And Mr. and Mrs. Weasley had been at the Ministry. At once, they noticed the small group standing in their living room.

Immediately Jordan cleared his throat and took a tentive step out from behind his wife. As soon as the long dead person appeared alive and well. Almost within the span of the blink of an eye, Mrs. Weasley had crossed the room and grabbed Jordan up in a huge bear hug complete with tears.

"Mom, wonderful to see you too, but if you don't let me go now, I'm really gonna die!" Jordan choked out, hoping his mother would get the picture and release him.

He knew she had when he suddenly hit the floor. Alexia came forward and helped him up off the groud. Alexia eyed her mother-in-law wairily, but was surprised as Bill rushed forward and wrapped her up in a huge hug.

"BILL!" Jordan bellowed, "Careful!"

Bill smirked at the oldest of his younger brothers as he released Alexia.

"What?" Bill asked out, "It's not like the two of you are married."

The two before him exchanged glances with one and another.

"No way!" Charlie replied.

"Yes, but this will turn into a long story, so let us arrange ourselves comfortably," Alexia stated almost coldly.

The group seated themselves around the living room and Alexia looked into the fire for some time before speaking.

"Jupiter was in alignment with Mercury that night. There was no moon to show that any evil that might have been on the move. The stars themselves seemed to be dark and brooding. Harry was just a year old, lying defenseless in his crib, while I watched the sky for more signs. Then I heard it, the scream of a wooden door being ripped from its hinges. I heard father-"

She stopped, turned to face them, and began to pace.

"Yell for mother to get Harry and run. I had seen it written in the stars that night. I hid under the bed and waited until he came. I saw him murder mother and I leapt upon him, clearly aiming to rip his throat out. He threw me against the wall and was about to kill me, when Harry started screaming. Voldemort immediately turned his wand on him.

"I heard him mutter the words to the killing curse. I saw the green light illuminate the hideous face. A face that is forever burned in my mind, haunting my every waking moment. I saw it headed towards Harry, and knowing that he could not die, I screamed one of the attack spells I knew. It only bounched harmlessly off of him.

"Then the miracle, the very one Harry pulled off, happened when Voldemort fired the spell at baby Harry. A brillant silver light glowed around Harry's body as the curse hit and rebounded off of him. The Adava Kedva curse hit Voldemort dead on and he disappeared in a scream of rage. Harry's scar appeared on his forehead. This scar, this very fame producing scar, was casued when the power within Voldemort exploded outward with his distruction, causing the whole house to explode."

She stopped pacing and sunk into the seat next to Jordan, who wrapped his arms around his wife. Alexia smiled at him in thanks.

"I was knocked unconscious and fell backwards into a hole where the stairs used to be. It wasn't until later, when I heard the unmistakable sound of two motorcycles, that I awoke. I saw Sirius riding away with vengence written across his face. The second 'cycle was Hagrid coming just seconds after Sirius left. He found Harry with no mark, but that scar, upon him. He took him away to live with the Dursleys. -"

A sudden knocking on the door made a few jump and interrupted Alexia's story. Arthur went to see who it was, only to have Sirius step inside.

"Sorry to intrude-" he started pleasently and then saw the group, "Am I interrupting something?"

"Not really," Alexia replied with a small shrug, "Just my life story."

Sirius sat down and just as he did, the sky let loose with a horrible storm. Harry let out a yelp as the lightning activated his elemental powers. He was looking out the window, staring more like it. Suddenly his eyes narrowed angrily and five lightning bolts came down around the house with precision placing. Each bolt illuminated at least five Death Eaters, giving a total of twenty or so. The group was backed into a corner and the situation wasn't looking too pretty.

"How'd they find us?!" Ron yelped in fright.

Hermione whimpered in fright and hid her face in Harry's shoulder. Even with eight full-trained wizards and witches and six untrained, yet unable to use magic, wizards and witches, the odds were gravely against them.
