Chapter 19: The Summer Holidays!
It was now two weeks into the summer holidays and everyone was at his or her individual home celebrating their O.W.L and exam results. Kirsti lived at 7 Broom Drive, in Kent and was enjoying an evening in with Oliver and Danielle, watching Quidditch, celebrating her O.W.L. results. Kirsti had managed to get 'Outstanding' in Potions and Herbology and 'Exceeds Expectations' for everything else.
Clare and Harry were enjoying a gobstones tournament at their home in Godrics Hollow. Clare had managed to get O's in Charms and History of Magic and E's in everything else except for Herbology in which she got an A. Harry managed to get in-between 310 and 360 in everything. Whereas Ron got in-between 257 and 298 in everything and Hermione got in-between 175 and 255 in everything except Arithmancy in which she got 40.
Amy was having a pillow fight with Sirius at 12 Grimmauld Place. She was easy to spot as her hair was purple and blue. She had achieved 455 in Transfiguration and 392 in Care of Magical Creatures and in-between 310 and 365 for everything else, even Potions.
Rachel was at 14 Burkina Road eating dinner with Lupin and Percy. Rachel had managed to get 460 in Defence Against the Dark Arts and 378 in Ancient Runes and in-between 310 and 367 and in everything else including 350 for Divination, which surprised most people.
However their lives were far from perfect, Dumbledore had been forced to cast a Fidelius charm on these houses because they were still in danger from Voldemort. Lupin was Sirius and Amy's Secret Keeper and Sirius was Lupin and Rachel's Secret Keeper. Lily was Danielle and Kirsti's and Danielle was Lily, Clare and Harry's. They had all managed to pass their apparating tests on their first go and took great joy in smirking and waving their pass papers at Umbridge as they passed her in the Atrium. After they had been registered as Animagi they refused to transform into their human forms and had a water fight in the fountain in the Atrium. Umbridge had threatened to "have them put down" as which point Rachel went up to her and shook her wet fur all over her.
"We'll have to see if it is acceptable to the Ministry for you to live with dangerous half-breeds like the one in your family." snarled Umbridge at Rachel. At which point Rachel chased Umbridge down the Atrium until she slipped on the wet floor and skidded on her saggy butt into a nearby fireplace.
