That night, Ron went up to his Father who was quietly speaking to Mad Eye Moody.
"Dad can I talk to you a minute," Ron said, pissed off.
Mr. Weasly nodded to Mad Eye than stepped over to his son.
"What is it Ron," he asked.
"What were you talking about at the meeting that I couldn't be included in," Ron said, glaring at his father.
Mr. Weasly looked at his son with sadness in his eyes.
"Well, Ron...you see," Mr. Weasly stumbled over his words.
"Arthur," as voice said behind him. He turned to see Lupin standing there.
"Were going to have to tell him before tomorrow Remus," Mr. Weasly whispered.
Remus nodded slowly. He than looked at Ron, who was standing waiting for an explanation.
"Come here Ronald," Lupin said, walking over to the corner of the room. Ron followed behind him, Mr. Weasly coming over too. Lupin pushed Ron into a chair.
"Is it that bad that I need to sit," Ron asked, gulping.
"Maybe," Lupin replied.
Ron just stared at Lupin, worry filling his eyes.
"You see Ron, Voldemort has become a growing threat," Lupin explained. "And the only person able to defeat him is of course, Harry Potter."
"I know that," Ron said, going along with the story so far so good.
"Well, we need him to and find Voldemort so he can defeat him. With Hermione and Ginny of course," Lupin said quickly.
"What...you mean...you mean that...you could be sending them to their death. What about me? Why can't I go," Ron yelled.
Everyone in the room stopped and stared at the trio in the corner of the room.
"Were fine, continue with what you were doing," Lupin said, casually.
The other members of the order went back to what they were doing, reluctantly.
"We don't know why you can't go Ronald. We were messaged by Dumbledore and he said that he didn't want you going along. He also said that this is not your fate. It is Harry, Hermione's, and Ginny's," Remus explained.
"What the bloody hell is that supposed to mean," Ron asked.
"I'm sorry Ron, but when we come to know things we will tell you," his father said, giving him a reassuring smile.
Angry and frustrated, Ron got up from his place and stormed outside. He slammed the screen door behind him. Lupin and Mr. Weasly did not try to stop him. They knew that he would be upset. Both of them went off to do their own thing after a while of sitting in silence.
Ron ran down the street as fast as could. He was running from everything. His family, his friends, bit most of all, his troubles.
"Curse Dumbledore," he thought to himself.
Not until he was out of breath and his legs got tired of carrying him, he slowed down. He panted for breath and sat down to take a rest. His best friends and sister were leaving him...maybe even forever. His stomach felt sick at the thought of it. Ron sighed and slumped against the tree he was leaning on. He felt useless. What was there he could do? He couldn't go against the head master's wishes.
"All right there Ron," a voice said from behind him.
He whipped around and saw Harry standing there. Ron just glared at him and turned away. Harry cam up beside him and sat down.
"I know your angry," Harry said.
"You think so," Ron growled.
Harry sighed. "We'll be okay Ron. I promise you we will come back."
"That's an empty promise. You can't guarantee that," Ron said, staring off into the distance.
"It's not just a promise to you," Harry explained. "It's my hope."
Ron sorrowfully looked at the green grass beneath him. "When do you leave," he whispered.
"First light tomorrow," Harry replied.
Ron nodded. Harry looked up at his friend.
"Look after Hedwig for me," Harry said.
"I will," Ron agreed. "She'll be thrilled when you get back though."
Harry shot a glance at Ron. "When I get back," he whispered to himself.
PLEASE R&R!
