A/N: Forth Chapter! Shorter than the others, kind of a transition piece.
If any of you are wondering, this story will continue to about 25 chapters...
possibly more!
Jax sat at the kitchen table, Tonks sitting next her; trying to teach her how to magically peel potatoes.
"Molly, when did Albus say we could take her to Diagon Alley? She's gonna need a wand and some text books if he expects me to teach her some things before she goes off to Hogwarts."
"You and Remus can take her to Gringotts and Olivanders and wherever else tomorrow. Tonight she needs some rest; and food. Everybody should be here in about five minutes; and they'll just be fussing over her!"
Jax's face grew an expression of worry on it after Mrs.Weasley said that.
"Who's everybody?"
"Well, Alastor, Albus, Arthur, and Minerva, of course, and then there's Eliphias Doge, Emmeline Vance, Kingsley Shacklebot, Sturgis Podmore and Hestia Jones... they're all very anxious to meet you, Jax."
"And Harry and his friends stay up there?"
"Yes, and my sons, Fred and George, and Ginny, my daughter. The trouble is keeping you away from all of them. We'll have to put a special charm on your door at night. But Dumbledore thought of you also; the walls are paper-thin around here and your room is right next to Harry and Ron's. You can listen to them talk all night, as long as you don't make much noise yourself."
"That'd be alright, I guess. When do I get out of here? I mean, go to school?"
"A week from today. That's actually not very much time; considering all the things you have to learn before you get on the train," Tonks explained.
She was trying furiously to get the potato to peel itself, istead of enchanting the potato pealer.
"Like Molly said, Remus, you, and I will go to Diagon Alley and get everything in advance, so there won't be any chance of you running into them there. Tomorrow we'll get your wand, robes, cauldron, etc., maybe even a pet!"
"A pet? Like what?"
"Well Harry has an owl named Hedwig-" Mrs. Weasley started.
"And Hermione has this dreadful cat named Crookshanks-" Tonks piped up.
"And Ron used to have a rat- well, we won't talk about him."
Jax smiled.
"I'd like an owl. I even know what I'd name her!"
"What?" Mrs. Weasley and Tonks both looked at her.
"Lily. I'd name her Lily." Jax softly smiled.
"Your mother would like that, I think."
Jax started bursting out laughing when she saw what Tonks had done to the potato- it was actually squeezing all the potato out of the skin, leaving the skin completely intact except for a hole at the bottom. There was now a pile of mashed potaoes on the table, along with a lifeless potato skin.
"TONKS!" Mrs. Weasley screamed.
"Bloody Merlin! Shit!" Tonks screamed.
Tonks' hair started to turn all sorts of different colors- green, purple, blue, back to pink, and finally to grey. Jax continued to laugh, as Mrs. Weasley tried everything in the book to clean up Tonks' mess.
"Mrs. Weasley- it's not that big of a deal. Just use a densengio charm. It'll clear it right up."
"Of course! Thank you Harry." Mrs. Weasley's eyes widened, as Tonks scooted in front of Jax. "Harry, dear, what are you doing down here? I told Ron I was going to bring your dinners up!"
"I just wanted a glass of water, Mrs. Weasley."
Harry went over and poured himself a glass, looking over to where Jax was standing behind Tonks. "Who's the visitor, Tonks?"
"Who? What visitor?"
"The girl right behind-"
Harry was cut off by a tight grip on his shoulder. Lupin stood above Harry, steering him in the direction of the staircase.
"Harry, you shouldn't be down here. I was just about to discuss some business to do with the Order with Molly."
"Yes, Professor."
Harry reluctantly scooted up the stairs, and the four downstairs heard the door slam above their heads. A few pieces ceiling plaster fell from the roof, making Jax cough from the dust.
