diclaimer: i do not own, anything, the american people are all real live people.

Authors note: I'm so very sorry for not updating in sooo long. I just could never get into the mood for writing everything out of the book. Well I'm really sorry but unlike I promised, you're not going to see the twin's shop written in jo's words. Sorry, I'm going to brief you on what happened, please don't hate me.

They walked into the shop, there were shelves and shelves of new inventions, there were many more skiving snack boxes, they had lollypops that would turn the eater into a frog for 1 hour, as well as many more. The twins spotted Harry and walked over to him.

"hi Harry" said fred.

"you know Harry," George

"you're always"

Welcome here

In the shop

Feel free

To take any thing

That you would want

Seeing as

You did fund us.

"thanks fred, George, but right now I'm perfectly fine, and anything I would like from here, I would like to pay you for, it's only fair, I didn't want the money from the tournament, so I invested it in you guys." said Harry honestly, "well Harry, just to let you know, you're going to get a big box of pranks for Christmas because Hogwarts need trouble makers now that we're gone."

They went home and sat around for a while, basically they all talked about how they really enjoyed their trip to visit the twin's shop. Mrs. Weasley walked into the living room "now I want you four up the steps and start getting packed, we are leaving for king's cross tonight due to recent death eater attacks. Dumbledore thought that it would be much safer to change the arrangements last minute so if there was a planned death eater attack, they wouldn't be ready to attack tonight, now up you go." one by one they walked quickly up the stairs and got packed, Harry and Ron carelessly threw their things into their trunks and were ready to go.

After a quickly made dinner, Arthur arrived with 2 ministry cars, they all got their things into the car, and were off to king cross. When they got there it was 7:45, the train was scheduled to leave at eight, for one time in Weasley history, they were early, Ron Hermione Ginny and Harry all piled into one of the last rooms available, after settling in, three unknown faces walked to their car, "do ya mind if we sit here, there's no room anywhere else." said a girl who looked about Harry's age. "yeah sure" he replied, "my name's Harry, and this is Hermione, and that there is Ron and his sister Ginny." " why 'ello mates, I'm Lauren and this here is Kelly, and over there, the shy one, that's Karissa. Don't mind Kelly, she's a little off." said Lauren in a British accent. Lauren was about Ginny's height and had short neck length hair, that was a very dark shade of brown, she had an inu yasha shirt on and at the bottom it said ziggy with a little zebra next to it.

Then Kelly stepped inside the car, "arg! Now this here, looks nothing like me ship, and it doesn't even rock, arrrg, this here" she waved her wand and a parrot appeared on her shoulder "is polly my parrot, mess wit her, an yer messin with me! Arch!". the group looked at her with shock, she had on a my chemical romance tee shirt and a pair of old worn out jeans, with a pair of beat up sneakers.

Finally Karissa walked in and said in a shy voice, "well Lauren already told you I'm Karissa." then she walked over to sit down next to Kelly, as she walked but Harry, she said in a whisper, "just to let you know, Lauren is Not British, Kelly is not a pirate, they just like to freak people out when they first meet them, and I'm not as shy as you think I am." then she walked over and sat down, she was wearing a long sleeve shirt that said got milk on it.

The 7 of the talked the entire ride until Hermione interrupted saying they should all get changed. it turned out that Kelly Lauren and Karissa were actually 6 years from America. They were highly trained in magic, but had just previously moved to England over the summer. "hey do you guys know what house you are yet?" asked Ron. "well Dumbledore stated in his letter that right after the first years we were to be sorted along with our brother, why what houses are you in?" asked Karissa. "Oh My God you guys have houses in a castle, that is completely awesome" said Lauren in awe. "Hermione tuned in, "we are all in Gryffindor, the house of the brave, we are all 6th years, but Ginny here, she is only 5th, but she has the capabilities of a 6th year. We should start getting our things down from the rack, it looks like we're here."

They got separated into 2 carriages, Harry, and the 3 girls took one carriage, while Hermione Ron and Ginny took another with Seamus Finnegan. " oh my god, they are ugly things, what are they," asked Karissa. " you can see them?" asked a very shocked Harry. "I'll explain it all later to you." when the went into the castle, Dumbledore called the 3 girls up to the front and told them to find their brother, he wanted to get them sorted before the 1st years.
