Twenty-four year old Ron Weasely was sitting in his apartment in London right outside the Leaky Cauldron, flipping through one of the numerous Quidditch magazines he had given an interview to. As he was flipping through the magazine he caught a picture that had been taken of himself and his best mate Harry. His mind started to drift as he thought about the many things that had happened in his life since when he finished at Hogwarts.

At the end of his 7th year at Hogwarts, Harry had defeated Voldemort once and for all with Hermione and Ron's help. Though the death eaters still roamed free but in hiding. Ron and Harry at first had become Aurors for a year or so but after that they both had decided that they had spent too much of their lives fighting for the light and would leave the rest of the clean up to the others. Though from retirement they quickly took spots on the Cannons Quiditch team, Ron as keeper and Harry seeker. With both of them on the team, Harry's amazing skills to catch the snitch and Ron's strategic mind the Cannons had not lost a game in over 7 years.Thus making both Ron and Harry famous Quiditch stars.

Hermione pursued a career in the new ministry. Fudge had been overthrown and in his place Ron's father had been elected as Minister. Hermione worked as an Unspeakable. Though no one really knew what she did, Ron figured whatever it was it gained her a multitude of respect. She was invited to many of the elite parties that Ron usually would end up taking her to. She as well lived in London in a smaller flat closer to her parents.

Ginny, Ron's younger sister, was in and out of relationship. At this point in her life she, in Ron's opinion, was on a break for she did not seem to be going out too much or staying in the floo for hours at a time. She was a happy 23 year old who had graduated from St. Mungol's as a fully trained healer. She recently had come into some money (that no Weasely except Molly seemed to know where it came from) and was opening her own practice in Hogsmead. While she was working on getting it open she was grudgingly living with her parents.

Sirius Black (who was very much alive) along with Remus Lupin were both working at Hogwart's as Defense Against The Dark Arts teachers to the extreme disappointment of Severus Snape. It seemed after Harry defeated Voldemort, the curse on the position dissipated.

Ron's oldest brother Bill was married to Fleur Delacore. Both worked in Egypt and already had two kids in Hogwarts; one a first year Gryffindor named Marla Weasely and a 4th year Gryffindor named John Weasely. With another two living at home twins named Annie and Betty who would not be attending for another few years.

Charlie Weasely was married to Sirius's first cousin, Nymphadora Tonks. Though Charlie loved working with his Dragons he had switched to being an Auror alongside his wife. They both had two kids, Nick who was 5 and Noah who was 8. They were expecting a third that Tonks hoped would be a girl. She was not due for another couple of months, but already they had a number of interesting names lined up for the new addition.

Percy, Ron's least favorite brother, married his highschool sweetheart Penelope Clearwater. Percy was working in the ministry and after making up with his father he had gained the position of assistant minister. His wife was a healer like his sister but worked at the wizarding hospital, St.Mungo's. She was head of the curse damage ward. Together they had three kids. The oldest being a year away from Hogwarts named Telesilla( though she strictly liked to be called Telly). Her younger brother, who was 5, was named Philip after the king of Spain. The youngest, almost a year old, was Antonia, by far the only sane one amongst all of Percy's children, and she couldn't even speak yet!

Fred and George were still running their joke shop, Weasley's Wizard Wheezes. Their first one was so successful that they had been able to expand to over 15 shops world-wide. Though these two had been long time players in the love field they had finally settled down in serious relationships. Fred had moved in with Alicia Spinett and George was about to do the same with Katie Bell from their old Quidditch team at Hogwarts. The thought of Fred and George even considering having children seemed beyond laughable.

Ron's own love life was casual; He wasn't exactly a player like his brothers were, but wasn't exactly Mr. Commitment either. Harry had this serious girlfriend that he had yet to introduce the rest of them to while Hermione had recently broken up with her boyfriend of two years, Victor Krum. Hermione had always been very loyal to Ron and Harry and when Victor had been very angry at her for rooting for the Cannons and not his own team when they played against each other for the cup Hermione had broken it off.

Ron was snapped back to reality as his floo sprang to life, a very pale Charlie head sitting in the green flames.

"Charlie, what's wrong?" asked Ron immediately, he knew his brother well enough to realize his visage meant trouble in the Weasley world. Instantly he assumed something had happened to Tonks or to the baby.

"Ron, you need to get over to the Burrow." Charlie said, his tone holding back a seemingly terrible sadness.

"What happened?" demanded Ron.

It took him a while to respond."There was an attack at Percy's." Charlie finally said.

"Are they alright? The kids?" asked Ron filled with worry and rising from his once comfortable seat.

Charlie held out a longer pause, and a few tears could be seen streaming down his face."They are dead Ron. Percy and Penelope, I mean. The kids are fine, they have been over at my place. " Charlie said, Ron's face clenching up at the thought of his older brother's death.

"I'll be right over Charlie." Ron said, stoically saddened.

Charlie nodded his head and disappeared. Ron rushed to his bedroom and threw on some clothes before rushing back to his fireplace and throwing in some floo powder. In no time, he found himself in his childhood home, fear and weary pain rushing over him.
